This Joinder and First Loan Modification Agreement (this “Loan Modification Agreement”) is entered into as of December 23, 2022, by and among (a) SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California corporation, with a loan production office located at 275 Grove Street, Suite 2-200, Newton, Massachusetts 02466 (“SVB”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent (“Agent”), (b) SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California corporation, as a lender, (c) SVB INNOVATION CREDIT FUND VIII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SVB Innovation”), as a lender (SVB and SVB Innovation and each of the other “Lenders” from time to time a party to the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined) are referred to herein collectively as the “Lenders” and each individually as a “Lender”), (d) AKILI INTERACTIVE LABS, INC., a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business located at 125 Broad Street, 4th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02110 (“Existing Borrower”), and (e) AKILI, INC., a Delaware corporation (“New Borrower”) (New Borrower and Existing Borrower, are hereinafter jointly and severally, individually and collectively, “Borrower”).
1. DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS. Borrower entered into a certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of May 25, 2021, among Borrower, the Lenders and Agent (as may be amended, modified, restated, replaced or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement.
2. JOINDER TO LOAN AGREEMENT. New Borrower hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the other appropriate Loan Documents, and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and other appropriate Loan Documents, as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, New Borrower agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with the Existing Borrower, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower when due under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.
3. SUBROGATION AND SIMILAR RIGHTS. Each Borrower waives any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law. Each Borrower waives any right to require Agent or the Lenders to: (i) proceed against any other Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Agent and the Lenders may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Modification Agreement, the Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise, until the payment in full of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity or other obligations which, by their terms, survive termination of the Loan Agreement and the termination of the Loan Documents). Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section 3 shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section 3, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Agent and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
