ADVANCE FUNDING AGREEMENT

ADVANCE FUNDING AGREEMENT, dated as of April 6, 2022 (as amended, restated, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, this “Agreement”), is made by and among:

(a) EWC MASTER ISSUER LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”);

(b) EWC HOLDING GUARANTOR LLC, EWC FRANCHISOR LLC, and EWC DISTRIBUTOR LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company (each, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”);

(c) EWC VENTURES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the manager (the “Manager”); and

(d) BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as an Advance Funding Provider and as administrative agent for the Advance Funding Provider (together with its permitted successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

BACKGROUND

1. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee and the Series 2022-1 Securities Intermediary, are entering into the Series 2022-1 Supplement, of even date herewith (as the same may be amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Series 2022-1 Supplement”), to the Base Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Base Indenture” and, together with the Series 2022-1 Supplement and any additional Supplements to the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and among the Borrower and the Trustee and the Securities Intermediary, pursuant to which the Borrower will issue series of notes from time to time (collectively, the “Notes”) on the terms described therein.

2. The Borrower wishes to engage the Advance Funding Providers to make Debt Service Advances and Collateral Protection Advances in accordance with (and to the extent provided in) this Agreement (each, an “Advance” and, collectively, the “Advances”). The Manager has joined in this Agreement to confirm certain representations, warranties and covenants made by it in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders in the Related Documents for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Advance Funding Providers.

ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS

SECTION 1.01 Definitions. As used in this Agreement and unless the context requires a different meaning, capitalized terms used but not defined herein (including the preamble and the recitals hereto) shall have the meanings assigned to such terms or incorporated by reference in the Series 2022-1 Supplemental Definitions List attached to the Series 2022-1 Supplement as Annex A or set forth or incorporated by reference in the Base Indenture Definitions List attached to the Base Indenture as

1

Annex A, as applicable. Unless otherwise specified herein, all Article, Exhibit, Section or Subsection references herein shall refer to Articles, Exhibits, Sections or Subsections of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II
ADVANCES

SECTION 2.01 Advances.

(a) Commitment. The Advance Funding Providers shall make Advances to the Borrower from time to time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date on which all Outstanding Series 2022-1 Class A-2 Senior Notes have been repaid in full or otherwise satisfied and discharged or defeased in accordance with the Indenture; provided that each Advance Funding Provider shall have no obligation or right to make any Advance in excess of its Commitment then in effect. The “Commitment” of the Advance Funding Provider as of the Closing Date is set forth on Schedule I.

(b) Reduction of Commitment. Each Advance made hereunder shall be deemed to permanently decrease the Commitment in an amount corresponding to such Advance. On the Series 2022-1 Legal Final Maturity Date, the Commitment shall automatically be reduced to zero.

(c) Debt Service Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture, if the Borrower or the Manager determines on any Quarterly Calculation Date that there are insufficient funds available in the Senior Notes Interest Payment Account (including funds that are available in the Indenture Trust Accounts to pay such amounts on such Quarterly Payment Date in accordance with Section 5.14(a) of the Base Indenture) to pay the Senior Notes Quarterly Interest Amount (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no other amounts) due on the applicable Quarterly Payment Date, solely to the extent there are insufficient funds available in the Advance Funding Reserve Account, the Manager shall deliver an executed advance request in the form of Exhibit A hereto with respect to such Advance (each such request, an “Advance Request”) by no later than 11:00 (New York City time) one (1) business day prior to such Quarterly Payment Date, specifying the Debt Service Advance amount required to be paid by the Advance Funding Providers, to the Advance Funding Providers (with copies to the Back-Up Manager). Subject to Sections 2.01(e) and (f), the Advance Funding Providers shall make a Debt Service Advance in an amount equal to such requested amount no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to such Quarterly Payment Date.

(d) Collateral Protection Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture, from time to time, the Borrower or the Manager may request that the Advance Funding Providers make a Collateral Protection Advance by delivering an executed Advance Request, and any such request shall be accompanied by all sufficient supporting documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. Subject to Sections 2.01(e) and (f), the Advance Funding Providers shall make such Collateral Protection Advances (a) if the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that such Collateral Protection Advances are necessary to prevent an immediate loss to the interest of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and the Administrative Agent receives information in time sufficient to prevent such immediate loss, or (b) if the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that such Collateral Protection Advances are necessary to pay Securitization Operating Expenses (excluding (i) any indemnification obligations, (ii) business and/or asset-related operating expenses, (iii) fees and expenses of external legal counsel that are not directly related to the maintenance or preservation of the Collateral and (iv) damages, costs, or expenses relating to fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, violations of law, bodily injury, property damage or misappropriation of funds) owed by any Securitization Entity, to the extent that the Manager elects not to make a Manager Advance to cover such expense (the occurrence of either of subclauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.01(d), a “Collateral Protection Requirement”), and the Administrative Agent receives information in time sufficient to make such payment. If such Collateral Protection Advance is required in accordance with the foregoing, such Collateral Protection

2

Advance shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such required information (including, if applicable, any reports from the Back-Up Manager or any other consultant engaged by the Administrative Agent to prepare such report)), absent immediate exigent circumstances as determined by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may also elect to cause Collateral Protection Advances to be made in its sole discretion without the Borrower or Manager requesting such Collateral Protection Advances and will be reimbursed for such Collateral Protection Advances with the same priority. For the avoidance of doubt, Collateral Protection Advances shall not be made for the purpose of paying management fees to the Manager, making any distribution to a Non-Securitization Entity or otherwise increasing the operating liquidity of the Manager or any of its Affiliates, other than in furtherance of a purpose consistent with the applicable Collateral Protection Requirement.

(e) Nonrecoverable Advances.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance is required to be made if the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that such Advance (with interest thereon) would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or an Advance Suspension Period is then in effect. In making any such determination, the Administrative Agent may engage either the Back-Up Manager (such engagement to be in the sole and absolute discretion of Back-Up Manager) or another third party consultant to prepare a report as to the recoverability of any Advance and may rely on such report in making any determination as to recoverability. The scope of any such report is to be agreed upon between the Administrative Agent and the Back-Up Manager or other third party consultant, as the case may be, to be used by the Administrative Agent to assist the Administrative Agent in making its determination as to whether such Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, with the fees and expenses relating to such report (i) if prepared by the Back-Up Manager, being Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fees and paid as such and (ii) if such report is prepared by another third party consultant, such fees and expenses being funded using an Advance. In addition, in the event that Manager is not providing reasonable assistance to the Administrative Agent in its recoverability determination and/or to Back-Up Manager or other third party consultant, as the case may be, in preparing such report, no Advance shall be required to be made (but may be made in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion).

“Advance Funding Standard” means the same degree of care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Administrative Agent generally administers comparable advancing obligations, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent advancing by other lenders under similar facilities.

A “Nonrecoverable Advance” is any portion of an Advance previously made and not previously reimbursed, or proposed to be made, which, together with any then-outstanding Advances, and the interest accrued or that would reasonably be expected to accrue thereon, in the reasonable and good faith judgment of the Administrative Agent, would not be ultimately recoverable from subsequent payments or collections from any funds on deposit in the Collection Account or funds reasonably expected to be deposited in the Collection Account following such date of determination, giving due consideration to allocations and disbursements of funds in such account and the limited assets of the Securitization Entities.

(ii) In making any nonrecoverability determination as described above, the Administrative Agent may consider only the obligations of the Securitization Entities under the terms of the Related Documents as they may have been modified, the related Collateral in “as is” or then-current condition and the timing and availability of anticipated cash flows as modified by the Administrative Agent’s assumptions regarding the possibility and effect of future adverse changes, together with such other factors that the Administrative Agent determines should be taken into account in accordance with the Advance Funding Standard, including, but not limited to, an estimate of future expenses (including expenses that could be incurred by the Administrative Agent,

3

Trustee and/or Back-Up Manager in a bankruptcy proceeding affecting the Securitization Entities), timing of recovery (including delays that could be expected by the Administrative Agent in a bankruptcy proceeding affecting the Securitization Entities), deteriorating value of the Collateral, the inability of any reserves or Accounts to be used to repay Advances with interest thereon, the inherent risk of a protracted period to complete liquidation or the potential inability and cost to liquidate collateral, including, but not limited to, as a result of intervening creditor claims or of a bankruptcy proceeding affecting the Securitization Entities and the effect thereof on the existence, validity and priority of any security interest encumbering the Collateral, the direct and indirect equity interests in the Securitization Entities, available cash on deposit in the Concentration Account and Collection Account (only to the extent available to repay Advances with interest thereon and to the extent that cash therein is or will not be not restricted, delayed or unavailable as a result of any bankruptcy, receivership or similar judicial proceeding relating to the Borrower), the inability of any reserves or Accounts to be utilized to repay Advances with interest thereon, the future allocations and disbursements of cash on deposit in the Concentration Account and Collection Account (only to the extent available to repay Advances with interest thereon and to the extent that cash therein is or will not be not restricted, delayed or unavailable as a result of any bankruptcy, receivership or similar judicial proceeding relating to the Borrower), and the net proceeds anticipated to be derived from any of the foregoing. The Administrative Agent may update or change its nonrecoverability determination at any time, and may decide that a Debt Service Advance or Collateral Protection Advance that was previously deemed to be a Nonrecoverable Advance will have become recoverable or that a Debt Service Advance or Collateral Protection Advance that was previously made will have become nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all outstanding Debt Service Advances and Collateral Protection Advances made by the Advance Funding Providers and any accrued interest thereon will be paid strictly in accordance with the Priority of Payments, even if the Administrative Agent determines that any such advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance after such Advance has been made.

(f) Advance Suspension Period. In the event that (i) the Securitization Entities and/or the Manager are in default of their obligations under the Advance Funding Agreement, the Management Agreement, the Indenture or any other Related Document regarding required financial, Account or related reporting obligations or (ii) the Securitization Entities and/or the Manager have failed to fully and timely cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Administrative Agent, Control Party and/or Back-Up Manager in connection with the performance by such parties of their respective obligations under the Related Documents (including any duty by any such parties to obtain an appraisal of the Collateral, or perform an in-depth situation analysis of the Manager and its financial position and/or of the Collateral and/or the Securitization Entities during a Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event, a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event, in connection with a Consent Request, in connection with a proposed Advance, or if an Advance Period has been continuing for at least 60 days, as applicable), such that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole but good faith discretion, that it cannot make a non-recoverability determination pursuant to the Advance Funding Standard prior to the date in respect of which the Advance was required or requested (“Advance Suspension Period”), the Advance Funding Providers’ obligation to make any such Advance shall be suspended and of no force and effect until full cure of all such circumstances and/or information failure deliveries that prevent the Administrative Agent from making a non-recoverability determination. The Administrative Agent shall provide prompt written notice to each of the Trustee, the Manager and the Back-Up Manager as soon as practicable (but in all events by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day prior to the date for which an Advance was required or requested) if any Advance Suspension Period is deemed to be in effect, setting forth with particularity the basis therefor and the required cure actions/deliverables. At any time that an Advance Suspension Period is cured, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Manager and the Back-Up Manager and shall, absent such Advance no longer being required or requested (or the occurrence of a subsequent Advance Suspension Period), make its determination as to whether or not such Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance.

4

“Advance Period” means any period during which any Advance (and accrued interest thereon) remains outstanding.

(a) Advances (and all interest thereon) will be due and payable on each Weekly Allocation Date to the extent funds are available therefor in accordance with the Priority of Payments. All outstanding Advances will be due and payable in full on the Series 2022-1 Legal Final Maturity Date.

SECTION 3.03 [Reserved].

SECTION 3.04 [Reserved].

SECTION 3.05 Increased Costs, etc. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Advance Funding Provider (an “Affected Person”) for any increase in the cost of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by any such Affected Person, including reductions in the rate of return on such Affected Person’s capital, in respect of funding or maintaining (or of its obligation to fund or maintain) any Advances that arise in connection with any Change in Law which shall (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Affected Person, or (ii) impose on any Affected Person any other condition affecting this Agreement, except for such Changes in Law with respect to increased capital costs and Advance Funding Taxes which shall be governed by Sections 3.07 and 3.08, respectively (whether or not amounts are payable thereunder in respect thereof). For purposes of this Agreement, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all regulations, requests, guidelines or directives issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III, are deemed to have gone into effect and been adopted subsequent to the date hereof. Each such demand shall be provided to the Borrower in writing and shall state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Affected Person for such increased cost or reduced amount of return; provided that any such demand claiming reimbursement for increased costs resulting from a Change in Law described in clause (x) or (y) above shall, in addition, state the basis upon which such amount has been calculated and certify that such Affected Person’s method of allocating such costs is fair and reasonable and that such Affected Person’s demand for payment of such costs hereunder, and such method of allocation, is consistent with, or more favorable than, its treatment of other borrowers which, as a credit matter, are substantially similar to the Borrower and which are subject to similar provisions. Such additional amounts (“Increased Costs”) shall be paid by the Borrower in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(ii) within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower; provided that with respect to any notice given to the Borrower under this Section 3.05, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay any amount with respect to any period prior to the date that is nine (9) months prior to such demand; providedfurther that if the Change in Law giving rise to such Increased Costs is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 3.06 [Reserved].

SECTION 3.07 Increased Capital or Liquidity Costs. If any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or reasonably expected to be maintained by any Affected Person or any Person controlling such Affected Person and such Affected Person determines in its sole and absolute discretion that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of its commitment hereunder or the Advances made or issued by such Affected Person is reduced to a level below that which such Affected Person or such controlling Person would have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such case after notice from time to time by such Affected Person to the Borrower, within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of such notice, such amounts (“Increased Capital Costs”) as will be sufficient to compensate such Affected Person or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return shall be paid by the Borrower in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(ii) subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments; provided that with respect to any notice given to the Borrower under this Section 3.07 the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay any amount with respect to any period prior to the date that is nine (9) months prior to such notice; provided, further, if the Change in Law giving rise to such Increased Capital Costs is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. A statement of such Affected Person as to any such additional amount or amounts

6

(including calculations thereof in reasonable detail), in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In determining such additional amount, such Affected Person may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its reasonable discretion) shall deem applicable so long as it applies such method to other similar transactions. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all regulations, requests, guidelines or directives issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III, are deemed to have gone into effect and been adopted subsequent to the date hereof.

SECTION 3.08 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise required by law, all payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder (including fees) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future income, excise, documentary, property, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges in the nature of a tax imposed by any taxing authority including all interest, penalties or additions to tax and other liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, fees, duties, withholdings and other charges, and including all interest, penalties or additions to tax and other liabilities with respect thereto, being called “Advance Funding Taxes”), but excluding in the case of any Affected Person (i) net income, franchise (imposed in lieu of net income) or similar Advance Funding Taxes (and including branch profits or alternative minimum Advance Funding Taxes) and any other Advance Funding Taxes imposed or levied on the Affected Person as a result of a present or former connection between the Affected Person and the jurisdiction of the governmental authority imposing such Advance Funding Taxes (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) (other than any such connection arising solely from such Affected Person having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Related Document), (ii) with respect to any Affected Person organized under the laws of, or having its principal office or, in the case of any Lender, its applicable lending office located in a jurisdiction other than the United States or any state of the United States (a “Foreign Affected Person”), any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to the Foreign Affected Person at the time the Foreign Affected Person becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Foreign Affected Person (or its assignor, if any) was already entitled, at the time of the designation of the new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to withholding tax, (iii) any taxes imposed under FATCA, (iv) any backup withholding tax, (v) any Advance Funding Taxes imposed as a result of such Affected Person’s failure to comply with Section 3.08(d) and (vi) taxes resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or the Affected Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment(such Advance Funding Taxes not excluded by (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) above being called “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If any Advance Funding Taxes are imposed and required by law to be withheld or deducted from any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder to an Affected Person, then, (x) the Borrower shall withhold the amount of such Advance Funding Taxes from such payment (as increased, if applicable, pursuant to the following clause (y)) and shall pay such amount, subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, to the taxing authority imposing such Advance Funding Taxes in accordance with applicable law and (y) if such Advance Funding Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount of the payment shall be increased so that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Non-Excluded Taxes, in an amount that is not less than the amount equal to the sum that would have been received by the Affected Person had no such deduction or withholding been required.

(b) Moreover, if any Non-Excluded Taxes are directly asserted against any Affected Person or its agent with respect to any payment received by such Affected Person or its agent from the Borrower or otherwise in respect of any Related Document or the transactions contemplated therein, such Affected Person or its agent may pay such Non-Excluded Taxes and the Borrower will,

7

within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of written notice stating the amount of such Non-Excluded Taxes (including the calculation thereof in reasonable detail), pay in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(ii), subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, such additional amounts (collectively, “Increased Tax Costs,” which term shall include all amounts payable by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.08) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such Affected Person or agent after the payment of such Non-Excluded Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes on such Increased Tax Costs) shall equal the amount such Person would have retained had no such Non-Excluded Taxes been asserted. Any amount payable to an Affected Person under this Section 3.08 shall be reduced by, and Increased Tax Costs shall not include, the amount of incremental damages (including Advance Funding Taxes) due or payable by the Borrower as a direct result of such Affected Person’s failure to demand from the Borrower additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.08 within 180 days from the date on which the related Non-Excluded Taxes were incurred.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Advance Funding Taxes by the Borrower, and in any event within thirty (30) days of any such payment being due, the Borrower shall furnish to each applicable Affected Person or its agents a certified copy of an official receipt (or other documentary evidence satisfactory to such Affected Person and agents) evidencing the payment of such Advance Funding Taxes. If the Borrower fails to pay any Advance Funding Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Affected Persons or their agents the required receipts (or such other documentary evidence), the Borrower shall pay in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(ii), subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, each Affected Person and its agents for any Non-Excluded Taxes that may become payable by any such Affected Person or its agents as a result of any such failure.

(d) Each Affected Person on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter as soon as practicable after the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form or document previously delivered) or within a reasonable period of time following a written request by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, shall timely deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY or Form W-9, as applicable, or applicable successor form, or such other forms or documents (or successor forms or documents), appropriately completed and executed, as may be applicable and as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in their reasonable determination, to establish the extent to which a payment to such Affected Person is exempt from or eligible for a reduced rate of withholding or deduction of United States federal withholding taxes and to determine whether or not such Affected Person is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Promptly following the receipt of a written request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each Affected Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent any other forms or documents (or successor forms or documents) appropriately completed and executed, as may be applicable to establish the extent to which a payment to such Affected Person is exempt from withholding or deduction of Non-Excluded Taxes other than United States federal withholding taxes, including but not limited to, such information necessary to claim the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any increased amount under Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) to an Affected Person in respect of the withholding or deduction of United States federal withholding taxes or other Non-Excluded Taxes imposed as the result of the failure or inability (other than as a result of a Change in Law) of such Affected Person to comply with the requirements set forth in this Section 3.08(d). The Borrower may rely on any form or document provided pursuant to this Section 3.08(d) until notified otherwise by the Affected Person that delivered such form or document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Affected Person shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a change in applicable law after the time the Affected Person becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office).
