Exit ABL Credit Facility On the Effective Date, Pyxus Holdings entered into an Exit ABL Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), dated as of August 24, 2020 by and among, amongst others, Pyxus Holdings, certain lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent to establish an asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Facility may be used for revolving credit loans and letters of credit from time to time up to an initial maximum principal amount of $75.0 million, subject to the limitations described below in this paragraph. Under certain conditions, Pyxus Holdings may solicit the ABL Lenders to provide additional revolving loan commitments under the ABL Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million. The ABL Facility is required to be drawn at all times in an amount greater than or equal to the lesser of (i) 25% of total commitments under the ABL Facility and (ii) $18.75 million. The amount available under the ABL Facility is limited by a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and inventory as follows: • 85% of eligible accounts receivable, plus • the lesser of (i) 70% of eligible inventory valued at the lower of cost (based on a first-in first-out basis) and market value thereof (net of intercompany profits) or (ii) 85% of the appraised net-orderly-liquidation value of eligible inventory. The ABL Facility permits both base rate borrowings and LIBOR borrowings. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 475 basis points or 375 basis points above base rate, as applicable, with a fee on unutilized commitments at an annual rate of 100 basis points. The ABL Facility matures on February 24, 2023, subject to extension on terms and conditions set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL Facility may be prepaid from time to time, in whole or in part, without prepayment or premium, subject to a termination fee of 50 basis points upon the permanent reduction of commitments under the ABL Facility, including maturity. In addition, customary mandatory prepayments of the loans under the ABL Facility are required upon the occurrence of certain events including, without limitation, certain dispositions of assets outside of the ordinary course of business in respect of certain collateral securing the ABL Facility and certain casualty and condemnation events. With respect to base rate loans, accrued interest is payable monthly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar month and, with respect to LIBOR loans, accrued interest is payable monthly and on the last day of any applicable interest period. Pyxus Holdings’ obligations under the ABL Facility (and certain related obligations) are (a) guaranteed by Pyxus Holdings, Pyxus Parent, Inc. and the Company and all of Pyxus Holdings’ material domestic subsidiaries, and each of Pyxus Holdings’ future material domestic subsidiaries is required to guarantee the ABL Facility on a senior secured basis (including Pyxus Holdings, collectively, the “ABL Loan Parties”) and (b) secured by the Collateral, as described below, which is owned by the ABL Loan Parties. The liens and other security interests granted by the ABL Loan Parties on the Collateral for the benefit of the lenders under the ABL Facility (and certain related secured parties) are, subject to certain permitted liens, secured by first-priority security interests on ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the ABL/Term Loan/Intercreditor Agreement) with the security interests securing the Term Loan Credit Facility and the Senior Secured First Lien Notes junior thereto, each as described below. The obligations of Pyxus Holdings and each other ABL Credit Party under the ABL Facility and any related guarantee have respective priorities in a waterfall with respect to portions of the Collateral as set forth in the ABL/Term Loan/Notes Intercreditor Agreement and the Term Loan/Notes Intercreditor Agreement described below. Cash Dominion Under the terms of the ABL Facility, if (i) an event of default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) excess borrowing availability under the ABL Facility (based on the lesser of the commitments thereunder and the borrowing base) (the “Excess Availability”) falls below the greater of (x) $7.5 million and (y) 10% of the lesser of (A) the commitments under the ABL Facility at such time and (B) the borrowing base at such time (such greater amount being the “Cash Dominion Threshold”), the ABL Loan Parties will become subject to cash dominion, which will require daily prepayment of loans under the ABL Facility with the cash deposited in certain deposit accounts of the ABL Loan Parties, including concentration accounts, and will restrict the ABL Loan Parties’ ability to transfer cash from their concentration accounts to their disbursement accounts. Such cash dominion period (a “Dominion Period”) shall end when (i) if arising as a result of a continuing event of default, such event of default ceases to exist, or (ii) if arising as a result of non-compliance with the Excess Availability threshold, Excess Availability shall be equal to or greater than the Cash Dominion Threshold for a period of 30 consecutive days. Financial Covenants The ABL Credit Agreement governing the ABL Facility contains a covenant requiring that the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio be no less than 1.00 to 1.00 during any Dominion Period. Affirmative and Restrictive Covenants The ABL Credit Agreement governing the ABL Facility contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants (subject, in each case, to exceptions and qualifications) and events of defaults, including covenants that limit the Company's and its restricted subsidiaries' ability to, among other things: • incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock; • make investments; • pay dividends and make other restricted payments; • sell certain assets; • create liens; • consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; • enter into transactions with affiliates; and • designate subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under Debtors’ debtor-in-possession financing facility, and related fees, were converted into, or otherwise satisfied with the proceeds of, the Term Loan Credit Facility. The Term Loan Credit Facility permits both base rate borrowings and LIBOR borrowings. Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 800 basis points or 700 basis points above base rate, as applicable. In addition to the cash interest payments, from and after the first anniversary of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the term loans under the Term Loan Credit Facility bear “payment in kind” interest in an annual rate equal to 100 basis points, which rate increases by an additional 100 basis points on each of the second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

In addition, customary mandatory prepayments of the loans under the Term Loan Credit Facility are required upon the occurrence of certain events including, without limitation, certain dispositions of assets outside of the ordinary course of business in respect of certain collateral securing the Term Loan Credit Facility and certain casualty and condemnation events.
