Exhibit 10.1

MASTER CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Master Credit Agreement (referred to herein as the “Agreement” or the “MCA”) is dated as of June 15, 2021 between APPHARVEST MOREHEAD FARM, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Party") and RABO AGRIFINANCE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lender”).

Article 1 - THE FACILITY SHEETS

1.01                Facility Sheets. Lender has agreed, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to make one or more credit facility(ies) available to Party under the terms and conditions of one or more Facility Sheet(s), which are incorporated herein. Lender may in the future and at its sole option make additional credit facilities available to Party which by their terms will be governed by this Agreement and a separate Facility Sheet(s). Upon and in the event Lender enters into any Facility Sheet with any Party that specifically references this MCA, the term “Agreement” as used in the Facility Sheet or any exhibit or schedule in connection therewith, shall be deemed to include this MCA as well as such Facility Sheet.

Article 2 – SCHEDULE OF DEFINITIONS AND COVENANTS

2.01                Schedule of Definitions and Covenants. This Agreement is also entered with reference to a Schedule of Definitions and Covenants. Party hereby acknowledges Party has received and reviewed the Schedule of Definitions marked as Exhibit A via paper copy, electronic copy, electronic mail, or by accessing the Schedule of Definitions with the version number that matches the version number shown in the footer of this Agreement at https://www.raboag.com/about-us/scheduledefinitions-167. Lender and Party agree the Schedule of Definitions is hereby incorporated by reference. The Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit B. Party agrees to the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants and the Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule. Capitalized terms contained in this Agreement are used as defined in the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants. Some of or all of the capitalized terms defined in the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants are used in this Agreement, the Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule and the Facility Sheet(s). To the extent any term is defined in the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants but is not used in this Agreement, the Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule, any Facility Sheet, or any amendment, modification or supplement to this Agreement, such term shall be deemed to be disregarded, of no meaning and without any effect. Except as otherwise defined in this Agreement or in the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants, or unless the context otherwise requires, each term that is used in this Agreement which is defined in Article 9 of the UCC shall have the meaning ascribed to that term in Article 9 of the UCC. If a term is defined in an Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule, Facility Sheet, Schedule of Covenants, or Other Schedule differently than in the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants, then the definition in each such Facility Sheet, Schedule of Covenants, or Other Schedule will control for the purposes of that schedule and that schedule only.

Article 3 - COVENANTS UNDER THE FACILITY SHEETS

3.01                Computation and Billing Interest. All computations of accrued interest under all Loan Documents other than interest at the Maximum Rate, and all fees under all Loan Documents, will be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) elapsed; and interest will accrue and be billed (with principal, where applicable) in accordance with Lender’s systems requirements and billing practices. Except as set forth in a Facility Sheet, there is no limit on the amount that an Interest Rate subject to Adjustment by Lender may increase at any one time, or in the aggregate. Lender's determination of an Interest Rate will be conclusive, absent manifest error.

3.02                Adjustment of Long Term Adjustable Rate. Lender shall notify Party of any Adjustment of a Long Term Adjustable Rate not less than 30 days before the Long Term Adjustable Rate Adjustment Date. At any time prior to that Long Term Adjustable Rate Adjustment Date, Party may deliver a Notice of Election to Prepay. If Lender receives an Election to Prepay, the entire amount of the principal indebtedness accruing interest at the Long Term Adjustable Rate shall be Prepaid without Prepayment Fee on or before that date which is 90 days after the Long Term Adjustable Rate Adjustment Date. If Lender does not receive a Notice of Election to Prepay, then Party may, but is not obligated to Prepay all or any part of the principal indebtedness accruing interest at the Long Term Adjustable Rate without Prepayment Fee, on or before the Long Term Adjustable Rate Adjustment Date.

3.03                Late Fee. At Lender's option in each instance, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Party shall pay on demand a late fee in the amount of 5.000% of the amount of any scheduled payment due prior to the Maturity Date, which is not paid in full when due. The imposition and payment of a late fee will not constitute a waiver of Lender's rights with respect to an Event of Default as a result of that late payment.

3.04                Default Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the principal balance of Loan and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all other Loan Obligations shall, from the date of the Event of Default until the date Lender notifies Borrower that it is waived or cured or all Loan Obligations are paid in full, bear interest at the Default Rate, subject to the provisions of the Schedule of Definitions and Covenants, the Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule and the applicable Facility Sheet. The provisions of this section may result in compounding of interest. The provisions of this section will neither constitute a waiver of any Event of Default nor require the declaration of an Event of Default.

3.05                Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (a) no interest will be due on any amount due under this Agreement if, under Applicable Law, Lender is not permitted to charge interest on that amount, and (b) in all other cases interest due under this Agreement will be calculated at a rate not to exceed the Maximum Rate. If Party is requested by Lender to pay interest on any amount due under this Agreement at a rate greater than the Maximum Rate, the amount of interest due on that amount will be deemed the Maximum Rate and all payments in excess of the Maximum Rate will be deemed to have been Prepayments without Prepayment Fee or penalty, and not interest. All amounts other than interest which are paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of Party's indebtedness to Lender under this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized over the full stated term of the indebtedness, so that the rate of interest on account of that indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Rate for so long as the indebtedness is outstanding.

3.06                Method and Application of Payments. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made under any Loan Documents shall be made to Lender in U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds, without set-off, deduction, or counterclaim, not later than 2:00 pm (St. Louis, Missouri time) on the dates on which those payments will become due (any of those payments made after that time on the due date will be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). All payments received by Lender (including, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all proceeds received from the sale or other liquidation of the Collateral) will be applied to the Obligations in any order determined by Lender. The early or late date of making a regularly scheduled payment will be disregarded for purposes of allocating the payment between principal and interest. For this purpose, the payment will be treated as though made on the date due. In any legal action or proceeding, the entries made by Lender in an account or accounts maintained by Lender or Banking Counterparty or any of their Affiliates in accordance with its usual practice and evidencing the Obligations, will be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of those Obligations.

3.07                Prepayments Generally. The Prepayment of principal on any Loan shall be subject to the Prepayment Options that are set forth in the Facility Sheet applicable to such Loan. Lender may refuse to accept any Prepayment not expressly permitted in the Loan Documents. If a Prepayment is conditioned upon a Notice of Election to Prepay or other prior notice to Lender, at the option of Lender, (a) that Notice of Election to Prepay or notice will be irrevocable; (b) Prepayment will be due in the amount and on the date specified in that Notice of Election to Prepay or notice; and (c) that Notice of Election to Prepay or notice will not affect Parties obligation to make all other payments required under the Loan Documents on the date when due. If Lender receives any Prepayment which it is permitted to refuse, Lender may accept Prepayment; except that Lender may, as a condition of acceptance, require the payment of interest which would accrue on the amount Prepaid through the date when Lender would be obligated to accept the Prepayment, or the date the principal amount Prepaid would be due whichever is earlier. Each Prepayment of a portion of a Loan will be applied to the most remote payment of the principal due under a Facility Sheet for which such Prepayment is designated and as may be permitted under such Facility Sheet.

3.08                Reporting Requirements. Lender may, from time to time, ask for various reporting and other such documentation from each Party to the Agreement regarding the operations, business, corporate affairs and financial condition, including without limitation financial, tax, and other corporate records reporting.  Said reporting and/or documentation requests will be made by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.  Except where such reports shall be delivered within a different time period, each Party will be required to provide Lender with the requested reporting within 30 days of the receipt of written notice from Lender. Financial reporting, if any, will be at least of the quality specified in the notice and may be (i) tax returns, (ii) self-prepared financial statements, (iii) CPA Compiled statements, (iv) CPA Reviewed statements and/or (v) CPA Audited statements each based upon either US GAAP or FFSC reporting as also specified in the notice.

3.09                Mandatory Repayments. If at any time the unpaid principal balance of any Loan exceeds the Maximum Amount thereof under the terms of this Agreement, then, subject to a Permitted Over-Advance for such Loan, upon demand by Lender, Party shall repay that portion of the principal balance thereof in excess of that Maximum Amount, along with all unpaid accrued interest on that portion.

3.10                Aggregate Borrowing Base. In no event shall any Borrowing Base Certificate submitted hereunder, include any Eligible Collateral (as such term is defined in a Facility Sheet) that is also included in another Facility Sheet Borrowing Base.

Article 4 - COLLATERAL

4.01                Collateral Documents. The payment and performance of the Obligations are secured by those Liens in favor of Collateral Agent as agent for the Lender pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement created under (i) any Security Instrument now or hereafter entered into by Party in favor of Collateral Agent, which states that it secures all or any of the Obligations; (ii) any other instrument or agreement now or hereafter delivered to Lender and/or Collateral Agent in conjunction with this Agreement, which states that it secures all or any of the Obligations; and (iii) any Cross Collateralized Loan Documents, if applicable.

4.02                Due on Sale or Encumbrance Provisions. Each Mortgage shall include a provision similar to the following, with applicable terms to be revised as the context requires: Parties shall not make or permit any Prohibited Transfer. Upon Lender’s or Beneficiary’s election, whichever is applicable, any Prohibited Transfer shall be an Event of Default, permitting Lender/Beneficiary and/or Collateral Agent to declare all of the Secured Obligations to be due and payable immediately.

Article 5 - LOAN OPENING AND FUNDING CONDITIONS

11.04             Balloon Payment. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS PROVIDE FOR BALLOON PAYMENTS. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER HAS NOT AGREED TO REFINANCE THOSE PAYMENTS.

11.05             Requests for Advances. Each Request for Advance will be irrevocable and is a representation by Party to Lender that, if applicable, the unpaid principal balance of that Loan after disbursement of the requested Loan will not exceed the Maximum Amount of such Loan under this Agreement. Each time Party makes a Request for Advance, Party reaffirms and re-makes all of the Party Representations and acknowledges and agrees to all of the Covenants and Reporting Requirements set forth in the Applicable Obligor Covenants Schedule, any Facility Sheet as of the date of the Request for Advance by Party. Lender may postpone making any advance on any Loan to the extent Lender is delayed by fire, earthquake or another circumstance outside Lender’s reasonable control.

18.                  Miscellaneous. This Environmental Indemnity may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be an original and all of which together are deemed one and the same instrument. If Indemnitor is comprised of multiple Persons, any Person comprising Indemnitor is hereby authorized to bind all parties comprising Indemnitor. Indemnified Agent or Secured Parties may, at any time and without notice, waive any prior requirement that requests, authorizations, or other actions be taken only by a Designated Person. This Environmental Indemnity shall be interpreted in light of the Drafting Conventions specified in the MCA. Each Party has participated in negotiating and drafting this Environmental Indemnity, so if an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Environmental Indemnity is to be construed as if the parties had drafted it jointly, as opposed to being construed against a Party because it was responsible for drafting one or more provisions of this Environmental Indemnity. Indemnitor agrees to execute any other documents or take any other actions reasonably necessary to effectuate this Environmental Indemnity and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein. This Environmental Indemnity may not be amended, changed, modified, altered or terminated without the prior written consent of Indemnitor Indemnified Agent and Secured Parties. All rights and remedies under this Environmental Indemnity and the Secured Obligation Documents are cumulative, and the exercise of any one or more of them does not constitute an election of remedies.

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ARE GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY; AND ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE SECURED PARTIES ENTERING INTO THE SECURED OBLIGATION DOCUMENTS.
