The Loan Documents 4. On or about September 19, 2022, the Borrower executed a certain Revolving Demand Note in favor of the Plaintiff in the principal sum of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00) (the “Note”) whereby the Plaintiff agreed to extend the Borrower a certain commercial loan on a revolving basis (the “Loan”) up to said amount. Annexed hereto as Exhibit “A” is a true and complete copy of the Note. 5. Under the original terms and conditions of the Note, the Borrower agreed to remit certain payments to the Plaintiff: “…ON DEMAND, the principal amount of One hundred fifty thousand and 00/100 dollars ($150,000.00) or, if less, such amount as may be the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans or advances made by Lender [Plaintiff] to the Borrower pursuant hereto, together with interest from the date hereof on the unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding until paid in full. The aggregate principal balance outstanding shall bear interest thereon at a per annum rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined). The current Wall Street Journal Prime Rate is 5.5% and the initial applicable interest rate is equal to 5.5% until changed in accordance with the terms of this Note. All accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the 19th day of each month, commencing on October 19, 2022” (See Exhibit “A”, Page “1”, Paragraph “1”). 6. In connection with the Note, on or about September 19, 2022, Borrower and Plaintiff entered into and executed a certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”). Annexed hereto as Exhibit “B” is a true and complete copy of the Loan Agreement. 7. Upon demand, Borrower agreed to remit to Plaintiff, inter alia, the entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest and other outstanding sums due under the Note. (See Exhibit “A”, Page “1”, Paragraph “1” and Page “5”, Paragraph “25”). 8. Pursuant to the Note, Borrower agreed to pay all expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in pursuing any payment due to Plaintiff. (Exhibit “A”, Page “3”, Paragraph “16”). G:\wpdocs\working\Commerci\TD Bank\Meloww LLC\S&C 4 of 16 FILED: ROCKLAND COUNTY CLERK 03/19/2024 02:27 PM INDEX NO. 031481/2024 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 1 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 03/19/2024 9. Pursuant to the Note, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance due thereunder at a rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, provided that the minimum interest rate is 5.5% per annum. (See Exhibit “A”, Page “1”, Paragraphs “1” and “2”). 10. Upon default and failure to pay, Borrower agreed that the interest rate for all outstanding principal shall be increased to 18.00% per annum (the “Default Rate”). (See Exhibit “A”, Page “3”, Paragraph entitled “16”). 11. In connection with the Note and as partial consideration for same, on or about September 19, 2022, Borrower and Plaintiff executed a certain Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement” and collectively with the Note, the Loan Agreement and all other documents executed in conjunction therewith, the “Loan Documents”). Annexed hereto as Exhibit “C” is a true and complete copy of the Security Agreement. 12. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, Borrower granted Plaintiff a security interest in all of Borrower’s assets and property (collectively, the “Collateral”). (See Exhibit “C”, Security Agreement, Page “2”, Section “2.1”). 13. Plaintiff duly perfected its senior security interest in and first priority lien against the Collateral by filing a UCC-1 Financing Statement against Borrower with the New York Secretary of State (the “UCC”). Annexed hereto as Exhibit “D” is a true and complete copy of the UCC. B. The Guaranty 14. On or about September 19, 2022, as consideration for and to induce the Plaintiff to advance the Loan to the Borrower, the Guarantor executed a personal Unlimited Guaranty (the “Guaranty”). Annexed hereto as Exhibit “E” is a true and complete copy of the Guaranty. G:\wpdocs\working\Commerci\TD Bank\Meloww LLC\S&C 5 of 16 FILED: ROCKLAND COUNTY CLERK 03/19/2024 02:27 PM INDEX NO. 031481/2024 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 1 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 03/19/2024 15. Pursuant to the provisions of the Guaranty: “To induce Lender [Plaintiff] to make or continue to make loans, advances, or grant other financial accommodations to Borrower, in consideration thereof and for loans, advances or financial accommodations heretofore or hereafter granted by Lender to or for the account of the Borrower, the undersigned Yehuda Rosenstock (the "Guarantor") absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment to Lender of all sums which may be presently due and owing and of all sums which shall in the future become due and owing to Lender from the Borrower, whether direct or indirect, whether as a borrower, guarantor, surety or otherwise, including, without limitation, interest, attorneys' fees and other amounts accruing after the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against Borrower, notwithstanding the discharge of Borrower from such obligations, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such obligations, this Unlimited Guaranty (this "Guaranty") and the enforcement thereof, and also guarantees the due performance by the Borrower of all its obligations under all other present and future contracts and agreements with Lender. This is a guaranty of payment and not collection.” (See Exhibit “E”, Page “1’, “First Paragraph”) 16. As a result of Plaintiff’s demands under the Note and/or Borrower’s default thereunder (as described immediately below), Guarantor is liable to Plaintiff for the outstanding amounts due thereunder C. Plaintiff’s Demands Under the Note 17. As set forth in the Note, Borrower agreed to pay all amounts advanced by Plaintiff to Borrower thereunder in full immediately upon Plaintiff’s demand. (See Exhibit “A”, Page “1”, Paragraph “1” and Page “5”, Paragraph “25”). 18. Although the Note is due and payable on demand at any time and no default is actually required prior to such demand, in any event, Borrower breached the Loan Documents and became immediately liable to Plaintiff based upon, inter alia, its failure to remit the required monthly payments due to Plaintiff under the Note beginning August 19, 2023 and continuing thereafter. 19. By prior letters dated November 29, 2023, Plaintiff made demand upon Defendants to immediately remit all accelerated and outstanding sums due under the Note, pursuant to Plaintiff’s rights thereunder to demand payment in full at any time and/or as a result of Borrower’s G:\wpdocs\working\Commerci\TD Bank\Meloww LLC\S&C 6 of 16 FILED: ROCKLAND COUNTY CLERK 03/19/2024 02:27 PM INDEX NO. 031481/2024 NYSCEF DOC.

By prior letter dated February 13, 2024, Plaintiff’s counsel further demanded that Defendants remit all accelerated, outstanding and unpaid sums due under the Note and Guaranty pursuant to Plaintiff’s rights thereunder to demand payment in full at any time and/or as a result of Borrower’s forgoing default. Annexed hereto as Exhibit “G” is a true and complete copy of this letter. 21. Borrower and Guarantor have failed and refused to remit the accelerated and outstanding indebtedness due under the Note to Plaintiff to date, despite Plaintiff’s demands for same, which constitutes a further breach of the Loan Documents and a breach of the Guaranty. 22. By virtue of the foregoing, Defendants are both jointly and severally liable to Plaintiff, on unconditional instruments for the payment of money under the Note and Guaranty in the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of $149,961.42 as of January 5, 2024 plus unpaid interest accrued through said date in the amount of $6,423.34 plus unpaid late charges accrued through said date in the amount of $323.79 plus accrued and unpaid annual fees through said date in the amount of $750.00 plus accrued and unpaid miscellaneous/UCC fees through said date in the amount of $116.31 plus additional interest continuing to accrue at the Default Rate from January 6, 2024 plus additional late charges continuing to accrue from January 6, 2024 plus all of Plaintiff’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, other charges, and the costs and expenses of this Action, as have accrued and which continue to accrue.

Plaintiff has fully complied with and fully performed all of its obligations under the Loan Documents. 26. As set forth above, Plaintiff has duly demanded payment of all accelerated and outstanding sums due under the Note. 27. Despite Plaintiff’s demands, Borrower has failed and refused to remit payment of all accelerated and outstanding sums due under the Note to Plaintiff. 28. By virtue of the foregoing, Borrower is liable to Plaintiff, on an unconditional instrument for the payment of money under the Note in the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of $149,961.42 as of January 5, 2024 plus unpaid interest accrued through said date in the amount of $6,423.34 plus unpaid late charges accrued through said date in the amount of $323.79 plus accrued and unpaid annual fees through said date in the amount of $750.00 plus accrued and unpaid miscellaneous/UCC fees through said date in the amount of $116.31 plus additional interest continuing to accrue at the Default Rate from January 6, 2024 plus additional late charges continuing to accrue from January 6, 2024 plus all of Plaintiff’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, other charges, and the costs and expenses of this Action, as have accrued and which continue to accrue.

By virtue of the above, an account stated has been taken between Plaintiff and Borrower on the Note, whereby Borrower has admitted and acknowledged the debts as accurate and correct in all respects. 33. As a result of the foregoing, Plaintiff has a stated account with Borrower in the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of $149,961.42 as of January 5, 2024 plus unpaid interest accrued through said date in the amount of $6,423.34 plus unpaid late charges accrued through said date in the amount of $323.79 plus accrued and unpaid annual fees through said date in the amount of $750.00 plus accrued and unpaid miscellaneous/UCC fees through said date in the amount of $116.31 plus additional interest continuing to accrue at the Default Rate from January 6, 2024 plus additional late charges continuing to accrue from January 6, 2024 plus all of Plaintiff’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, other charges, and the costs and expenses of this Action, as have accrued and which continue to accrue.
