ADVANCE AUTHORITY. The following person or persons are authorized to request advances and authorize payments under the line of credit until Lender receives from Borrower, at Lender's address shown above, written notice of revocation of such authority: John S. Chen, President of FGI Industries Inc.

LINE OF CREDIT.

Within the foregoing limits, Borrower may borrow, partially or wholly prepay, and reborrow under this Agreement as follows:

Conditions Precedent to Each Advance. Lender's obligation to make any Advance to or for the account of Borrower under this Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent, with all documents, instruments, opinions, reports, and other items required under this Agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender:

(1)   Lender shall have received evidence that this Agreement and all Related Documents have been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by Borrower to Lender.

Making Loan Advances. Advances under this credit facility, as well as directions for payment from Borrower's accounts, may be requested orally or in writing by authorized persons. Lender may, but need not, require that all oral requests be confirmed in writing.

Lender, at its option, may set a cutoff time, after which all requests for Advances will be treated as having been requested on the next succeeding Business Day.

Mandatory Loan Repayments. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances shall exceed the applicable Borrowing Base, Borrower, immediately upon written or oral notice from Lender, shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the difference between the outstanding principal balance of the Advances and the Borrowing Base. On the Expiration Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender in full the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances then outstanding and all accrued unpaid interest, together with all other applicable fees, costs and charges, if any, not yet paid.

Loan Account. Lender shall maintain on its books a record of account in which Lender shall make entries for each Advance and such other debits and credits as shall be appropriate in connection with the credit facility. Lender shall provide Borrower with periodic statements of Borrower's account, which statements shall be considered to be correct and conclusively binding on Borrower unless Borrower notifies Lender to the contrary within thirty (30) days after Borrower's receipt of any such statement which Borrower deems to be incorrect.

CESSATION OF ADVANCES. If Lender has made any commitment to make any Loan to Borrower, whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement, Lender shall have no obligation to make Loan Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if: (A) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the terms of this Agreement or any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes incompetent or becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (C) there occurs a material adverse change in Borrower's financial condition, in the financial condition of any Guarantor, or in the value of any Collateral securing any Loan; or (D) any Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other loan with Lender.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a right of setoff in all Borrower's accounts with Lender (whether checking, savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower holds jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be prohibited by law.

DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:

Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under the Loan.

Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.

Default in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's or any Grantor's property or Borrower's or any Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.

False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.

Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any time and for any reason.

Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness.

Change in Ownership. Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common stock of Borrower.

Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the Loan is impaired.

Right to Cure. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, after Lender sends written notice to Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, demanding cure of such default: (1) cure the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiate steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

Other Defaults Modified. Notwithstanding the section above entitled “Other Defaults”, Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or Agreement or in any of the Related Documents between Lender and Borrower; or any shareholder, member, trustor, or any owner of the Borrower also holding a controlling interest in any given entity’s common stock, membership interest, trust interest, or any other ownership interest (“Related Entity”), fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and the Related Entity.

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT (ASSET BASED) AND BORROWER AGREES TO ITS TERMS. THIS BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT (ASSET BASED) IS DATED OCTOBER 31, 2022.

DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS. The Promissory Note dated April 23, 2012 for Loan Number 34190232 in the original Principal Amount of $10,000,000.00, along with any and all subsequent Change in Terms Agreements (collectively referred to as "Note").

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS. The maturity date of the Note is hereby extended from December 21, 2022 to December 21, 2024.

Effective November 26, 2022, the sections entitled "VARIABLE INTEREST RATE" and "INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD" are hereby amended and restated as follows:

VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this loan is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the daily Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, as quoted in the "Money Rates" column of The Wall Street Journal (Western Edition) as determined by Lender (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 6.250% per annum. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this loan will be calculated as described in the "INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD" paragraph using a rate of 0.250 percentage point under the Index (the "Margin"), adjusted if necessary for any minimum and maximum rate limitations described below, resulting in an initial rate of 6.000% per annum based on a year 360 days. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after notifying Borrower. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this loan be less than 4.500% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this loan is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All interest payable under this loan is computed using this method.

The section entitled "COLLATERAL" is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Collateral. Borrower acknowledges the Note is secured by the following collateral described in the security instrument listed herein:

(A) a Commercial Security Agreement dated June 13, 2022 made and executed between FGI Industries Inc. and Lender on collateral described as: inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general intangibles.

CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of the original obligation or obligations, including all agreements evidenced or securing the obligation(s), remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Consent by Lender to this Agreement does not waive Lender's right to strict performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any future change in terms. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction of the obligation(s). It is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of the original obligation(s), including accommodation parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this Agreement. If any person who signed the original obligation does not sign this Agreement below, then all persons signing below acknowledge that this Agreement is given conditionally, based on the representation to Lender that the non-signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or otherwise will not be released by it. This waiver applies not only to any initial extension, modification or release, but also to all such subsequent actions.

The SOFR Borrowing Rate.

(i)              The SOFR Borrowing Rate is the SOFR Rate plus 2.20% per annum. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this loan be less than 4.500% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

(ii)           Borrower may obtain SOFR Borrowing Rate quotes from Lender between 9:00 a.m. and 11 :00 a.m. (California time) on any Business Day. Borrower may request an Advance, conversion of any portion of the Reference Rate Amount to a SOFR Amount or a new SOFR Interest Period for an existing SOFR Amount, at such rate only by giving Lender notice before 11 :00 a.m. (California time) on such day.

(iii)           Whenever Borrower desires to use the SOFR Borrowing Rate option, Borrower shall give Lender irrevocable notice (either in writing or orally) between 9:00 a.m. and 11 :00 a.m. (California time) two (2) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such rate. Any oral notice shall be given by, and any written notice shall be signed by, the person(s) authorized in this note, and shall specify the requested effective date of the rate, SOFR Interest Period and SOFR Amount, and whether Borrower is requesting a new Advance at the SOFR Borrowing Rate under a line of credit, conversion of all or any portion of the Reference Rate Amount to a SOFR Amount, or a new SOFR Interest Period for an outstanding SOFR Amount. No more than one SOFR Rate Notice shall be in effect at any one time during the term of the Loan, except that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, Borrower may select a separate SOFR Rate Period for up to four (4) different parts of the Loan (each part of which must be in the minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 DOLLARS ($100,000.00), provided that such selection is otherwise done in strict compliance with the terms of this Note.

(iv)          If at any time after the date hereof (A) any revision in or adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof (i) shall subject Lender to any tax, duty, or other charge, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender with respect to any loans bearing interest based on the SOFR Rate, or (ii) shall impose or modify any reserve, insurance, special deposit, or similar requirements against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Lender, or impose on Lender any other condition affecting any such loans, and (Bl the result of any of the foregoing is (i) to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining any such loans or (ii) to reduce the amount of any sum receivable under this note by Lender, Borrower shall pay Lender within 15 days after demand by Lender such additional amount as will compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduction. The determination hereunder by Lender of such additional amount shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If Lender demands compensation, Borrower may upon three (3) Business Days' notice to Lender pay the accrued interest on all SOFR Amounts, together with any additional amounts payable. Upon Borrower's paying such accrued interest and additional costs, the Reference Borrowing Rate immediately shall be effective with respect to the unpaid principal balance of such SOFR Amounts.

(v)           Borrower shall pay to Lender, on demand, such amount as Lender reasonably determines (determined as though 100% of the applicable SOFR Amount had been funded) is necessary to compensate Lender for any direct or indirect losses, expenses, liabilities, costs, expenses or reductions in yield to Lender, whether incurred in connection with liquidation or re-employment of funds or otherwise, incurred or sustained by Lender as a result of: (A) Any payment or prepayment of a SOFR Amount, termination of the SOFR Borrowing Rate or conversion of a SOFR Amount to the Reference Borrowing Rate on a day other than the last day of the applicable SOFR Interest Period (including as a result of acceleration); or (B) Any failure of Borrower to borrow, continue or prepay any SOFR Amount or to convert any portion of the Reference Rate Amount to a SOFR Amount after Borrower has given a notice thereof to Lender.

(vi)           If Borrower chooses the SOFR Borrowing Rate, Borrower shall pay interest based on such rate, plus any other applicable taxes or charges hereunder. Lender's determination of the SOFR Borrowing Rate and any such taxes or charges shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

SOFR INTEREST RATE OPTION

(Continued)

(viii)            Nothing contained in this note, including without limitation the determination of any SOFR Interest Period or Lender's quotation of any SOFR Borrowing Rate, shall be construed to prejudice Lender's right, if any, to decline to make any requested Advance or to require payment on demand.

BUSINESS DAY. If any payment would be due on a day other than a business day, such payment due date shall be extended to the next succeeding business day, unless the result of such extension would be to carry such payment due date into another calendar month in which event such payment due date shall be the immediately preceding business day.

Benchmark Replacement Setting. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that (i) the Index is permanently or indefinitely unavailable or unascertainable, or ceases to be published by the SOFR Administrator, (ii) the Index is determined to be no longer representative by the regulatory supervisor of the SOFR Administrator, (iii) the regulatory supervisor for the SOFR Administrator has determined that the Index may no longer be used, or (iv) a new index rate has become a widely-recognized replacement benchmark rate for the Index in newly originated or amended loans denominated in Dollars in the U.S. market, then all references to the interest rate herein will instead be to a replacement rate determined by Lender in its sole judgment, including any adjustment to the replacement rate to reflect a different credit spread, term or other mathematical adjustment deemed necessary by the Lender in its sole judgment. Lender will provide reasonable notice to Borrower of such replacement rate, which will be effective on the date set forth in such notice. Lender may also from time to time, in Lender's sole discretion, make any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length or applicability of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) ("Conforming Changes") that Lender decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such replacement rate and to permit the administration of the loans by Lender an administratively and operationally practicable manner. If there is any ambiguity as to the date of occurrence of any such event, Lender's judgment will be dispositive. Lender does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to any replacement rate, any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof or any alternative, comparable or successor rate thereto, including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, comparable or successor rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as the immediately preceding interest index rate or any other interest rate index, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes.

THIS SOFR INTEREST RATE OPTION IS EXECUTED ON OCTOBER 31, 2022.
