3.6.Except as required in Sections 3.1 or 3.2 above, or Section 8.1 below, the Borrower shall not be entitled or obligated to prepay the Principal Amount or accrued Interest (in whole or in part) at any time prior to the Maturity Date, Alternative Maturity Date, or Long Maturity Date, as applicable; provided, however, that, if Borrower prepays any portion of the JLL Loan (as defined below) (which shall not be prepaid in whole or in part without Lender’s consent), then Borrower shall provide a corresponding prepayment of the Loan Amount to Lender that is on a pro rata basis with the prepayment made on the JLL Loan, based on the prepayment made to JLL and the relative loan amounts then outstanding; provided further, that such pro rata prepayment of the Principal Amount or accrued Interest shall not be required in connection with a prepayment of the JLL Loan upon consummation of the Acquisition. In the event of any such prepayment, amounts prepaid shall be first applied to the Interest and Principal Amount of the Additional Loans.

1.2Security Interest Absolute

1.2.1The Charged Assets are a principal security for the Secured Liabilities and, without prejudice to the foregoing, no right of Artivion, the Security Interest created hereunder, or the liabilities or obligations of the Pledgor or any third party, shall be impaired or discharged by (without limitation):

(f)Artivion taking, accepting, varying, dealing with, enforcing, abstaining from enforcing, surrendering, exchanging or releasing any security interest in relation to the Pledgor or any third party, or claiming, proving for, accepting or transferring any payment in respect of the Secured Liabilities or the liabilities of any other third party in any composition by, or winding up of, any such party and/or any third party, or abstaining from so claiming, proving, accepting or transferring;

(g)to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any other circumstance that could otherwise constitute a defense to or discharge of the Pledgor or any third party, other than the payment and performance in full of the Secured Liabilities (which, solely with respect to the Original Loan and Interest on the Original Loan, may include upon the Cancellation thereof),

except as explicitly waived, released, amended or surrendered by Artivion in writing, in any of the above-mentioned events.

1.2.2Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Debenture, the Pledgor will remain liable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations relating to or constituting the Secured Liabilities or the Charged Assets and neither Artivion nor any Receiver will be under any obligation or liability with respect to the Secured Liabilities or the Charged Assets by reason of or arising out of this Debenture. Neither Artivion nor any Receiver will be required in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Pledgor in respect of the Secured Liabilities or the Charged Assets, or to make any payment, or to make any enquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it, or to present or file any claim or take any action or to collect any amount or enforce any right or remedy hereunder.

1.3.2To the extent that the Pledgor or any third party on its behalf thereof makes a payment or payments to Artivion, or Artivion enforces any security interest or exercises any right of set-off and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently avoided or set aside, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or required to be repaid or refunded or reduced by virtue of any applicable law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, administration, receivership, trusteeship, liquidation or similar proceedings, the Secured Liabilities or any part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and this Debenture and all Security Interests, rights and remedies therefore shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

6.1The occurrence of any of the Events of Default in the A&R Loan Agreement or in any other Loan Document, mutatis mutandis, shall constitute an Event of Default under this Debenture as well. Furthermore, any breach of this Debenture by Pledgor shall also constitute an Event of Default under this Debenture, unless cured, if such breach is capable of remedy (as determined by Artivion in its reasonable discretion), within 45 days after Artivion’s written notice thereof to remedy such breach or is waived in writing by Artivion.

6.2Artivion’ Powers

6.2.1On or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Artivion shall be entitled to declare any or all of the Secured Liabilities immediately due and payable, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

subject to applicable law, by any other reasonable method Artivion shall see fit, as permitted under applicable law.

6.2.3Subject to applicable law, and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Artivion shall be entitled, in any proceedings concerning the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, winding up, arrangement, receivership, any other proceedings under the Insolvency and Financial Rehabilitation Law 5778-2018, or similar proceedings, of the Pledgor, to:

(a)demand, claim, collect, enforce and prove the Secured Liabilities and give acquittance thereunder;

6.3Receiver. Subject to the provisions of applicable laws, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default:

6.3.1The Receiver shall have all powers conferred by the Companies Ordinance, 5743-1983, and/or Insolvency and Economic Rehabilitation Law, 5778-2018 (if applicable), and all other applicable law, including, without limitation, the power:

6.3.2to receive into its hands the Charged Assets and to take possession thereof;

6.3.3to require the Pledgor to deliver or otherwise make available such of the Charged Assets as the Receiver may demand, and without the consent of the Pledgor, enter into any premises of the Pledgor or any place where the Charged Assets are located and take possession of any of the Charged Assets;

6.3.4to manage the Pledgor’s business or participate in the management thereof as it may see fit;

6.3.5to sell or agree to the sale of the Charged Assets, in whole or in part, or to transfer the same in any other manner upon such conditions as it may see fit;

6.3.6to exercise any right charged or pledged hereunder in the same manner in which the Pledgor was entitled to exercise such right in accordance with the terms of Section 20 of the Israeli Pledge Law, 5727-1967;

6.3.7to employ accountants, lawyers and other professionals;

6.3.8to call up any of the Pledgor’s uncalled share capital;

6.3.9to do any other act or thing which the Receiver considers to be incidental or conducive to the exercise of any other right exercisable by it; and

6.3.10to make any other arrangement with respect to the Charged Assets or any part thereof as it may see fit.

6.4On and at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, should the payment date of the Secured Liabilities or any part thereof not yet have fallen due at the time of the sale of the Charged Assets, or the Secured Liabilities be due to Artivion or the Receiver on a contingent basis only, then Artivion or the Receiver shall be entitled to recover out of the proceeds of the sale an amount sufficient to cover the Secured Liabilities (or such part thereof) and the amount so recovered and yet to be appropriated to the discharge of the amounts due shall be charged to Artivion or the Receiver as security for, and be held by Artivion or the Receiver until the full payment or

satisfaction of the Secured Liabilities (which, solely with respect to the Original Loan and Interest on the Original Loan, may include upon the Cancellation thereof).

6.5The Pledgor alone shall be responsible for the Receiver's remuneration. In no event shall Artivion be responsible for the acts and omissions of the Receiver or for the Receiver's remuneration.

6.6A five (5) days' advance notice to the Pledgor regarding the steps that Artivion intends to take shall be deemed to be reasonable advance notice for the purpose of Section 19(b) of the Israeli Pledge Law, 5727-1967.

No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to a party hereto upon any breach or default by the other party shall impair any such right or remedy nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or any acquiescence therein or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring.
