Calderwood & Harkness Matter No. 1006-00008

Dear Mr. Boateng:

This firm represents Crestline Packaging Solutions LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Crestline" or the "Borrower"), and CPS Holdings, Inc., a Delaware C-corporation ("Holdings" and, together with Crestline, the "Loan Parties"), in connection with the Borrower's acquisition (the "Acquisition") of substantially all of the assets of Lakewood Regional Health Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability company ("Lakewood" or the "Target"), pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 16, 2025 (the "APA"), by and between Crestline, as Buyer, on the one hand, and Lakewood, Dr. Raymond Alcott, and Dr. Nadia Petrosian (collectively, the "Sellers"), on the other hand. The purpose of this letter is to transmit the closing deliverables required under Amendment No. 3 to that certain Credit Agreement dated September 17, 2021 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated March 9, 2023, Amendment No. 2 dated November 14, 2024, and as further amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), by and among Crestline, as Borrower, Holdings, the Guarantors party thereto, Ironclad National Bank ("Ironclad"), as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders party thereto, in connection with the funding of the $84,000,000 incremental term loan facility established thereunder (the "Incremental Term Loan"). The anticipated Closing Date for both the Acquisition and the funding of the Incremental Term Loan is August 15, 2025. This matter is being handled under Calderwood & Harkness Matter No. 1006-00008.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 3.

1. Enclosed Closing Deliverables

Set forth below is a description of the documents that are enclosed herewith, or that are being delivered concurrently via separate transmission, in satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the funding of the Incremental Term Loan as set forth in Section 4 of Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement and the applicable provisions of Article V thereof. Each document has been executed and delivered as of the date hereof unless otherwise noted.

(a) Executed Asset Purchase Agreement

Enclosed herewith is a fully executed copy of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 16, 2025, by and between Crestline, as Buyer, and the Sellers, together with all exhibits, schedules, and disclosure schedules thereto. The enclosed copy includes, without limitation, the following ancillary documents and exhibits forming an integral part of the APA:

(i) Working Capital Methodology (Schedule 2.4 to the APA), setting forth the agreed-upon methodology for the calculation of Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date, including the Working Capital Target of $6,200,000 and the agreed-upon collar of plus or minus $500,000 (i.e., a range of $5,700,000 to $6,700,000), below or above which a purchase price adjustment shall be made dollar-for-dollar in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.4 of the APA;

(ii) Indemnification Escrow Agreement (Exhibit C to the APA), pursuant to which $35,000,000 of the aggregate Purchase Price has been deposited into an escrow account maintained with Apex Title & Escrow Services, LLC, a New York limited liability company ("Apex"), acting in its capacity as Escrow Agent, to secure the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under Article IX of the APA. Such escrow funds shall be held and disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, which provides for scheduled releases on the first and second anniversaries of the Closing Date, subject to pending indemnification claims, if any; and

(iii) Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Agreement (Exhibit D to the APA), pursuant to which $3,500,000 of the aggregate Purchase Price has been deposited into a separate escrow account maintained with Apex to secure the post-closing purchase price adjustment obligations of the parties under Section 2.4 of the APA. Such amount shall be held and disbursed upon the final determination of Closing Net Working Capital in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth therein.

For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate Purchase Price for the Acquisition is $140,000,000, payable as follows:

• Cash at Closing: $119,000,000, consisting of (A) $84,000,000 funded from the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan, and (B) $35,000,000 funded from the equity contribution by Pinnacle River Capital Partners, LP ("Pinnacle River"), the indirect controlling equity holder of Holdings, as further described in Section 2 below;

• Indemnification Escrow: $17,500,000 deposited with Apex, funded from Incremental Term Loan proceeds, with the remaining $17,500,000 funded from the Pinnacle River equity contribution, totaling $35,000,000 in aggregate; and

• Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow: $3,500,000 deposited with Apex, funded from Incremental Term Loan proceeds.

The enclosed copy of the APA has been conformed to reflect all amendments, supplements, and side letters executed by the parties prior to the date hereof. To our knowledge, no amendments to the APA have been executed or are contemplated other than as reflected in the enclosed conformed copy, and the APA remains in full force and effect as of the date of this letter.

The legal opinion covers the following matters:

(i) Organization and Good Standing. Crestline Packaging Solutions LLC is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and CPS Holdings, Inc. is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of Crestline and Holdings is duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ii) Power and Authority. Each of Crestline and Holdings has the limited liability company or corporate power and authority, as applicable, to enter into and perform its obligations under Amendment No. 3, the Incremental Term Loan documents, and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

Each of the Loan Documents to which Crestline or Holdings is a party constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of such entity, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, including (A) the effect of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (including concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, and fair dealing), regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (C) the possible unenforceability of certain indemnification, contribution, and exculpation provisions under applicable securities laws and public policy considerations.

(v) No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance by each of Crestline and Holdings of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (A) violate any provision of the Certificate of Formation, Operating Agreement, Certificate of Incorporation, or Bylaws (or equivalent organizational documents) of Crestline or Holdings, (B) violate any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, or decree of any governmental authority applicable to Crestline or Holdings of which we have knowledge, or (C) result in a breach of, constitute a default under, result in the acceleration of, create in any party the right to accelerate, terminate, modify, or cancel, or require any notice or consent under, any material agreement, contract, lease, license, or instrument to which Crestline or Holdings is a party or by which any of their respective properties or assets are bound, except for any such conflict, violation, breach, default, acceleration, termination, modification, or cancellation that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(vi) Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order, or authorization of, or registration, declaration, or filing with, any governmental authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery by Crestline or Holdings of the Loan Documents or the consummation by Crestline or Holdings of the transactions contemplated thereby, other than (A) those that have been duly obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (B) filings and recordings necessary to perfect the security interests created under the Loan Documents, including UCC-1 financing statements, and (C) such other consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations, and filings that are of a routine or ministerial nature and the failure to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The legal opinion is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles, and the General Corporation Law and the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware, as applicable. The legal opinion is subject to the customary assumptions, limitations, qualifications, and exceptions set forth therein and is rendered solely for the benefit of the Opinion Recipients in connection with the transactions contemplated by Amendment No. 3.
