Exhibit 10.1
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT
THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this Agreement) dated July 28, is by and between MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC., a Delaware corporation (Borrower), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (Bank). This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety, and is given as a replacement for, and not in satisfaction of or as a novation with respect to, that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 28, 2019 by and between Borrower and Bank, as such may have been amended from time to time prior to the date hereof.
RECITALS
Borrower has requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below, and Bank has agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
CREDIT TERMS
SECTION 1.1. LINE OF CREDIT.
(a) Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including the Maturity Date, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000) (Line of Credit), the proceeds of which shall be used to finance Borrowers working capital requirements and general corporate needs (including, without limitation, mergers and acquisitions and international expansion permitted or not prohibited under this Agreement). Borrowers obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated July 28, 2022, as modified from time to time (Line of Credit Note).
(b) Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth herein.
(c) Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause a branch, a subsidiary or an affiliate to issue standby letters of credit and sight commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower (Subfeature Letters of Credit); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Subfeature Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000). Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Subfeature Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment, or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or restrain Bank from issuing such Subfeature Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over Bank shall prohibit or request that Bank refrain from the issuing of letters of credit generally or such Subfeature Letter of Credit in particular, or (ii) such Subfeature Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Bank applicable to
C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22) | -1- |
![]() |
letters of credit generally, or (iii) amounts demanded to be paid under any Subfeature Letter of Credit will not or may not be in United States Dollars. The form and substance of each Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole but reasonable discretion. No Subfeature Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date more than three hundred sixty five (365) days beyond the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Subfeature Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of Banks standard standby letter of credit agreement or Banks standard commercial letter of credit agreement and all applications and related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit.
SECTION 1.2. INTEREST/FEES.
(a) Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each credit subject hereto shall bear interest at the rate of interest set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document executed in connection therewith. The promissory notes or other instruments or documents executed in connection with the credit(s) subject to this Agreement may calculate interest at a rate equal to the sum of an index rate of interest plus a margin rate of interest. In the event any index rate of interest would be less than zero percent (0.0%), then the index rate of interest shall be deemed to be zero percent (0.0%) and the applicable promissory note or other instrument or document shall bear interest at a rate equal to the margin rate of interest.
(b) Computation and Payment. Interest shall be computed on the basis set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby. Interest shall be payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby.
(c) Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a non-refundable annual commitment fee for the Line of Credit equal to Thirty Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) for each year, which fee shall be due and payable in full on each July 1 during the term of this Agreement.
(d) Unused Commitment Fee. For any day in which the usage amount of the Line of Credit falls below the daily unused percentage range set forth below, Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to the percentage per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) set forth below on the daily unused amount of the Line of Credit, which fee shall be calculated on a quarterly basis by Bank and shall be due and payable by Borrower in arrears on the first Business Day of each fiscal quarter, commencing on July 1, 2022. As used herein, the term Business Day means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or other day on which banks in the State of California are authorized or required to close.

SECTION 1.3. COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Except to the extent expressly specified otherwise in any Loan Document other than this Agreement, Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all amounts due to Bank from Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (whether for principal, interest or fees, or as reimbursement of drafts paid or other payments made by Bank under any credit subject to this Agreement) by debiting any business purpose deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the full amount thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in Borrowers business purpose deposit accounts with Bank to pay all such sums when due, or if any such payment is collected but is subsequently reversed or rendered ineffective, or Bank is required to turn over, restore, or otherwise return any such paid amount to Borrower, a trustee-in-bankruptcy, or anyone else, due to a bankruptcy or for any other reason, the full amount of such deficiency, or the full amount reversed, rendered ineffective, turned over, restored or otherwise returned, as applicable, shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. The determination of whether any such payment must be turned over, restored or otherwise returned shall be made by Bank in its sole discretion; provided however, that if Bank chooses (but in no event shall Bank be obligated) to contest any such matter at the request of Borrower, Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, expended or incurred by Bank in connection therewith, including without limitation, in any litigation with respect thereto (other than arising as a result of Banks gross negligence or willful misconduct). For purposes hereof, a business purpose deposit account is any deposit account other than a deposit account established primarily for personal, family or household purposes.
The foregoing authorization shall remain in full force and effect until written revocation from Borrower has been received by Bank at its address for notices set forth in Section 7.2. hereof. In order to commence application of said cancellation with respect to a payment due date or payoff of a loan, Bank must be notified of said cancellation at least three (3) business days prior to such payment due date or payoff.

Borrower hereby grants to Bank a security interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with Bank to secure the payment of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Bank under the Loan Documents.
SECTION 7.13. ARBITRATION.
(a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. In the event of a court ordered arbitration, the party requesting arbitration shall be responsible for timely filing the demand for arbitration and paying the appropriate filing fee within 30 days of the abatement order or the time specified by the court. Failure to timely file the demand for arbitration as ordered by the court will result in that partys right to demand arbitration being automatically terminated.
(b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in the State selected by the American Arbitration Association (AAA); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAAs commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAAs optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the Rules). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.
(c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.
C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22) | -20- |
(d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of the State, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrators discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of the State and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the corresponding rules of civil practice and procedure applicable in the State or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.
(e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the partys presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.
(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity.
(g) Payment of Arbitration Costs and Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.
(h) Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such
C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22) | -21- |
indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any such dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the AAAs selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.
(i) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.
(j) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that courts jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding attorneys fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small Claims Court.

$60,000,000 | Los Angeles, California July 28, 2022 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC., a Delaware corporation (Borrower) promises to pay to the order of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (Bank) at its office at 21255 Burbank Blvd., Suite 110, Woodland Hills, CA 91367, or at such other place as the holder hereof may designate, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum of Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000), or so much thereof as may be advanced and be outstanding, with interest thereon, to be computed on each advance from the date of its disbursement as set forth herein. This Note amends, restates and replaces in full that certain Second Amended and Restated Revolver Line of Credit Note, dated as of May 31, 2022, in the principal amount of up to $60,000,000 made by Borrower and payable to the order of Bank previously issued in respect of that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as of May 28, 2019, as amended from time to time (the Credit Agreement).
INTEREST.
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth after each, and any other term defined in this Note shall have the meaning set forth at the place defined:
(a) Benchmark Floor means a rate of interest equal to zero percent (0%).
(b) Daily Simple SOFR means, with respect to any day (a SOFR Rate Day), a rate per annum equal to SOFR for the day (such day, the SOFR Determination Day) that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to (i) if such SOFR Rate Day is a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, such SOFR Rate Day or (ii) if such SOFR Rate Day is not a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, the U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately preceding such SOFR Rate Day, in each case, as such SOFR is published by the SOFR Administrator on the SOFR Administrators Website; provided, however, that if Daily Simple SOFR determined as provided above would be less than the Benchmark Floor, then Daily Simple SOFR shall be deemed to be the Benchmark Floor. If by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately following any SOFR Determination Day, SOFR in respect of such SOFR Determination Day has not been published on the SOFR Administrators Website and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to Daily Simple SOFR has not occurred, then SOFR for such SOFR Determination Day will be SOFR as published in respect of the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which SOFR was published on the SOFR Administrators Website; provided that any SOFR determined pursuant to this sentence shall be utilized for purposes of calculation of Daily Simple SOFR for no more than three (3) consecutive SOFR Rate Days.
1
(c) Federal Reserve Business Day means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is closed.
(d) Prime Rate means at any time the rate of interest most recently announced within Bank at its principal office as its prime rate, with the understanding that the Prime Rate is one of Banks base rates and serves as the basis upon which effective rates of interest are calculated for those loans making reference thereto, and is evidenced by the recording thereof after its announcement in such internal publication or publications as Bank may designate; provided, however, that any borrowings hereunder accruing interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate shall not be less than one percent (1%) at any time, regardless of fluctuations in the Prime Rate that may cause the rate of interest applicable to this Note to be less than one percent (1%).
(e) SOFR means a rate per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the SOFR Administrator.
(f) SOFR Administrator means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (or a successor administrator of the secured overnight financing rate).
(g) SOFR Administrators Website means the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, currently at http://www.newyorkfed.org, or any successor source for the secured overnight financing rate identified as such by the SOFR Administrator from time to time.
(h) U.S. Government Securities Business Day means any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, or any successor thereto, recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in United States government securities.
Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have those meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement (as that term is defined below).
2. Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at a rate per annum determined by Bank to be the Applicable Margin plus the Daily Simple SOFR in effect from time to time. The Bank shall be permitted to estimate the amount of accrued interest that is payable at any time hereunder on the applicable invoice provided by Bank to Borrower in respect thereof, in which case Borrower shall pay such estimated amount and Bank shall to the extent necessary, include on the next invoice an adjustment to correct any difference between the amount on the applicable invoice and the amount of interest that actually accrued pursuant to the terms of this Note. Bank is hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount and interest rate applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Banks books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. Applicable Margin means, as of any date of determination and with the applicable margin set forth in the following table that corresponds to the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio for the most recently completed quarter; provided, that any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Applicable Margin shall be set at the margin in the row styled Level 3:
2
1 2 3 The Applicable Margin will be re-determined as of the first business
day of Borrowers fiscal quarter following the quarter during which Bank receives and reviews Borrowers most current fiscal quarter-end financial statements in accordance with any requirements
established by Bank for the preparation and delivery thereof. 3. Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Borrower shall
pay to Bank immediately upon demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any
domestic or foreign governmental authority and related in any manner to SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, and (ii) costs, expenses and liabilities arising from or in connection with reserve percentages prescribed by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for Eurocurrency Liabilities (as defined in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended), assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, or similar requirements or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other
governmental authority and related in any manner to SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR and (iii) taxes, stamp taxes, and insurance payable by reason of the execution and delivery of this Note, the Credit Agreement, and any loan documents. In determining
which of the foregoing are attributable to any SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower. 4. Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month,
commencing August 1, 2022. 5. Default Interest. From and after the Maturity Date of this Note, or such
earlier date as all principal owing hereunder becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, then at the option of the Bank the outstanding principal balance of this
Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at an increased rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this
Note. 6. Inability to Determine Interest Rates; Illegality. Subject to the Benchmark Replacement Provisions
below, if Bank determines (any determination of which shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower) that either (i) Daily Simple SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof other than as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event
(an Inability Determination) or (ii) any law has made it unlawful, or that any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Bank to make or maintain 3
an advance based on SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR (an Illegality Determination), then Bank will so notify
Borrower. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at a rate per annum determined by Bank to be equal to the Prime Rate
in effect from time to time, from the date of an Inability Determination or an Illegality Determination until Bank revokes such Inability Determination or notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such Illegality Determination no
longer exist, as applicable. When interest is determined in relation to the Prime Rate, each change in the rate of interest hereunder shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced within Bank. Notwithstanding any of the
foregoing to the contrary, if a Benchmark Replacement is subsequently determined in accordance with applicable Benchmark Replacement Provisions, that Benchmark Replacement, plus any applicable margin, will become effective on the Benchmark
Replacement Date and will then supersede the Prime Rate and margin determined in accordance with this provision. BENCHMARK REPLACEMENT PROVISIONS: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or in any related loan document (for the purposes of these Benchmark
Replacement Provisions, a swap agreement by and between Borrower and Bank or any of its affiliates is not a loan document): (a) Benchmark Replacement. If a Benchmark Transition Event occurs, the applicable Benchmark Replacement will
replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes under this Note or under any related loan document. Any Benchmark Replacement will become effective on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date without any further action or consent of Borrower.
(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Bank will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes from time to time and any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Borrower. (c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Bank will promptly notify Borrower of (i) the
implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Bank pursuant to these Benchmark Replacement Provisions,
including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or
any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and will be made in its sole discretion and without Borrower consent. (d) Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Note, each of the following capitalized terms has the meaning given
to such term below: Benchmark means, initially, Daily Simple SOFR; provided, however, that if a Benchmark Transition
Event has occurred with respect to Daily Simple SOFR or the then-current Benchmark, then Benchmark means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has become effective pursuant to the provisions
of this Note. 4
Benchmark Administrator means, initially, the SOFR Administrator or any
successor administrator of the then-current Benchmark or any insolvency or resolution official with authority over such administrator. Benchmark Replacement means the sum of: (A) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by Bank as the
replacement for the then-current Benchmark; and (B) the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by Bank, in each case, giving
due consideration to (x) any selection or recommendation by the Relevant Governmental Body at such time for a replacement rate, the mechanism for determining such a rate, the methodology or conventions applicable to such rate, or the spread
adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for such rate, or (y) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest as a replacement to the then-current Benchmark, the
methodology or conventions applicable to such rate, or the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for such alternate rate for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated or bilateral credit facilities at such
time; provided, however, that if the Benchmark Replacement as determined as provided above would be less than the Benchmark Floor, then the Benchmark Replacement shall be deemed to be the Benchmark Floor, subject to any other applicable floor rate
provision. Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes means any technical, administrative or operational changes
(including, without limitation, changes to the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, prepayment provisions and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that Bank decides may be appropriate to
reflect the adoption and implementation of a Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by Bank. Benchmark
Replacement Date means the date specified by Bank in a notice to Borrower following a Benchmark Transition Event. Benchmark Transition Event means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current
Benchmark: a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the Benchmark Administrator or a regulatory supervisor for the Benchmark Administrator announcing that (A) the Benchmark Administrator has ceased or will cease to
provide the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely or (B) the Benchmark is no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative of underlying markets. Relevant Governmental Body means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any successor thereto.

wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and 5
reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of any document executed in connection with or governing this Note; provided however, that the total outstanding
borrowings under this Note shall not at any time exceed the principal amount stated above. The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total amounts advanced hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal

credit of any deposit account of Borrower, which advances, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower regardless of the fact that persons other than those authorized to request advances may
have authority to draw against such account. The holder shall have no obligation to determine whether any person requesting an advance is or has been authorized by Borrower. 3. Application of Payments. Each payment made on this Note shall be credited first, to any interest and fees
then due and second, to the outstanding principal balance hereof. 4. Maturity Date Payment in Full.
Borrower shall pay all remaining unpaid principal and accrued interest due and payable in full on the earlier of demand by the Bank on the occurrence of an Event of Default or June 1, 2025, (the Maturity Date). PAYMENTS. If any payment of principal or interest to be made pursuant to this Note, other than a prepayment or a payment due on the Maturity Date of
this Note, shall fall due on a day that is not a Federal Reserve Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Federal Reserve Business Day, except that, if such next succeeding Federal Reserve Business Day would fall in the next
calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Federal Reserve Business Day. Any extension or contraction of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. SWAP AGREEMENT.

and will be unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms of this Note, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Swap Agreement, (ii) nothing in this Note shall be construed as a
modification of a Swap Agreement or create an obligation to amend a Swap Agreement, (iii) Borrower may incur losses or reductions in benefits related to differences between the economic terms and characteristics of this Note and those of a
related Swap Agreement (including, without limitation, differences with respect to maturity dates, payment dates and methods for determining interest rates and differences between borrowings hereunder and the notional amount of a Swap Agreement),
and Bank is under no obligation to ensure that there are no differences or that differences will not arise hereafter, including, without limitation, differences between usage hereunder and the notional amount of a Swap Agreement, and (iv) Bank
has no obligation to modify, renew or extend the Maturity Date of this Note to match the maturity 6
date of a Swap Agreement. For the purposes of this Note, Swap Agreement means any existing or future swap agreement by and between Borrower and Bank or any of its affiliates. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. This Note is made pursuant to and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Any default in the payment or

outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder
to extend any further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate. Borrower shall pay to the holder immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees
(to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of the holders in-house counsel), expended or incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the holders rights and/or the

appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Bank
or any other person) relating to Borrower or any other person or entity. 2. Collateral Exclusion. No lien
or security interest created by or arising under any deed of trust, mortgage, security deed, or similar real estate collateral agreement (Lien Document) shall secure the Note Obligations unless such Lien Document specifically describes
the promissory note(s), instrument(s) or agreement(s) evidencing Note Obligations as a part of the indebtedness secured thereby. This exclusion shall apply notwithstanding (i) the fact that such Lien Document may appear to secure the Note
Obligations by virtue of a cross-collateralization provision or other provisions expanding the scope of the secured obligations, and (ii) whether such Lien Document was entered into prior to, concurrently with, or after the date hereof. As used
herein, Note Obligations means any obligations under this Note, as amended, extended, renewed, refinanced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, or under any other evidence of indebtedness that has been modified, renewed

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
This Agreement is made effective the 4th day of August, 2022 (Effective Date) by and between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the Company) and John David Parker (Employee) with respect to the following:
A. | The Parties desire to enter into an at-will Employment Agreement whereby the Employee will serve in the capacity of Chief Operating Officer Eastern Division, based in the Companys Manhattan, NY office. |
B. | The Parties agree that Employees employment shall be governed by the terms set forth herein, including the arbitration provision, the Employee Manual, and the Companys policies and procedures. |
THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
1. | Term of At-Will Employment. This Agreement shall be in effect commencing on August 4, 2022. The Company and Employee hereby agree that Employees employment with the Company is at-will. Either party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause. Such termination shall not prejudice any remedy which either party may have against the other at law, in equity, or under this Agreement. |
2. | Designation and Duties. Beginning on May 4, 2021, Employee was appointed Chief Operating Officer Eastern Division. Subject to the control and direction of the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors (or one of its Committees), Employee shall serve as an officer of the Company, and shall be responsible for oversight of the Companys investment sales activities in the eastern United States, and other responsibilities. From time-to-time, these duties may be modified by the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors in their reasonable discretion. Employee is not guaranteed, has not been promised, and has no expectation of any promotion or any other position with the Company other than the one stated in this Agreement. Employee shall serve the Company diligently and according to Employees best abilities in all respects, and generally do all things for the best interest of the Company as are usually done by persons occupying similar positions in similar businesses. |
3. | Manner of Performance. Employee shall at all times faithfully, industriously, and to the best of Employees ability, experience, and talent, perform all duties that may be required of and from Employee, pursuant to the express and implicit terms hereof, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Such duties shall be rendered at the above-mentioned premises and at such other place or places as the Company shall require or as the interests, needs, business, and opportunities of the Company shall require or make advisable. Employee acknowledges that Employee has received and has read a copy of the Companys Employee Policy Manual and Code of Ethics and agrees to abide by all terms and conditions, including all future amendments or modifications thereto. The Company reserves the right to amend and revise its policies at any time and from time to time. The Company will notify Employee of all such material changes. Employee agrees to read, comply with, and be bound by all such amendments, revisions and/or modifications. |
4. | Compensation and Fringe Benefits. The compensation and fringe benefits to be received by Employee in consideration of the services to be rendered by Employee are set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The provisions of Exhibit A are incorporated into this Agreement by reference as if fully set forth herein. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the employee benefit plans and programs it offers to employees. |
5. | Effect of Termination on Compensation. Employee shall be entitled to the base salary earned by Employee prior to the date of termination, computed pro rata up to the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any further salary or other compensation after the date of termination. Except as expressly modified in Exhibit A, on termination of this Agreement Employee shall not be deemed to have earned any incentive compensation not already declared and paid by the Company because such compensation is not for services rendered, and employment on the date of payment is an express requirement to be deemed to have earned any such compensation. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, Employee shall be obligated to return to the Company within ten (10) days after the termination of Employees employment any draws or other advance payments (of incentive compensation or otherwise) made to him during the annual period in which such termination occurs. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, interest shall accrue on the sum of any such advances at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum after said ten-day period. |
6. | Business Expenses. The Company will promptly reimburse Employee for reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in promoting the business of the Company, including expenditures for entertainment, gifts and travel, provided that: (i) Each such expenditure is of a nature qualifying it as a proper deduction on the Federal and State income tax returns of the Company; and (ii) Employee furnishes to the Company, in accordance with the Companys established policy, adequate records and other documentary evidence required by Federal and State statutes and regulations issued by the appropriate taxing authorities for the substantiation of such expenditures as income tax deductions. |
7. | Confidentiality and Restrictive Covenants. |
(i) | Confidentiality. Employee understands that based upon Employees senior position within the Company and for the Employee to perform the duties successfully, that it is necessary to provide Employee with access to the Companys confidential and/or proprietary information (Confidential Information as further defined below). |
(a) | Employee shall not, at any time during or after the Term, reproduce or use for Employees own purposes or disclose to anyone else, for any reason or purpose, any Confidential Information, other than during the performance of services in Employees capacity as an employee of the Company. Employee agrees to exercise reasonable care in safeguarding and maintaining Confidential Information against loss, theft or other inadvertent disclosure. |
2
(b) | Confidential Information means confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of or relating to the Company or any of its affiliates or that the Company has received from a client, customer or other third party doing business with the Company or its affiliates, including, without limitation: (A) intellectual property in the form of patents, trademarks, copyrights and applications thereof, ideas, inventions, works, discoveries, improvements, information, documents, formulae, practices, processes, methods, developments, source code, modifications, technology, techniques, data, programs, other know-how or materials, in each case, that are confidential and/or proprietary and owned, developed or possessed by the Company, whether in tangible or intangible form; (B) information concerning the Companys operations, regulatory status, processes, products, inventions, business practices, strategies, unique business methods, services or products, business plans, joint ventures, business alliances, finances, financial analysis and data, profit margins, marketing methods, costs, prices, financial arrangements with contractors, employees, salespersons, or vendors, Company proprietary information, policies, and policy manuals; and (C) information concerning principals, sales persons, employees, vendors, suppliers, customers, client lists, investors, potential customers, potential investors, contractual relationships, prospects and confidential personnel information including compensation paid to employees, brokers, independent contractors, consultants, or other terms of retention or employment. |
(c) | Confidential Information shall not include: (A) any of the foregoing items which have become publicly known through no wrongful act of Employee or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved, or that were known to Employee prior to Employees employment by the Company or its affiliates (although any information provided to Employee by the Company prior to such date in connection with Employees proposed employment shall constitute Confidential Information, and in the event of a dispute, Employee shall have the burden of establishing such prior knowledge); and (B) any information that Employee is required to disclose to, or by, any governmental or judicial authority; provided, that Employee gives the Company prompt written notice thereof so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive in writing compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. |
(d) | In accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act, Employee may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under |
3
seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. In addition, if Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose trade secrets of the Company to Employees attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding provided that Employee: (i) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (ii) does not otherwise disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to a court order. |
(e) | Employee agrees not to disclose this Agreement to any third party, other than Employees attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, to members of Employees immediate family; provided, that the terms of this Paragraph shall not be construed to prohibit any disclosure required or allowed by law or in any proceeding to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Employee may disclose Employees obligations under this Agreement to a prospective employer. |
(f) | Return of Company Property, including Confidential Information. Upon the earlier of the Companys request and the termination of employment, Employee shall immediately (within three (3) days of such request and/or termination) turn over to the Company all documents, papers and other material, including all copies thereof, in Employees possession or under Employees control, which may constitute, contain or be derived from Confidential Information, whether in written, digital or machine-readable form, together with all Company property, documents, notes and other work product which is connected with or derived from Employees employment with the Company. |
(ii) | Non-Solicitation of Employees/Contractors/Consultants.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT A
This document is Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement (hereinafter called the Agreement) between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the Company) and John David Parker (Employee). The provisions hereof are an integral part of said Agreement and are fully incorporated into the Agreement. The Compensation and Fringe Benefits to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Employment Agreement (and as described below) are as of the Effective Date and will be reassessed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors (the Board).
Compensation and Fringe Benefits of Employee.
The compensation and fringe benefits to be paid to Employee for 2022 are as follows:
1. | Compensation and Special Conditions. |
i. | Salary. Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a base monthly salary of Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33), payable in semi-monthly installments, pro-rated for less than a full year of service. In the event employment is terminated, the base salary amount will be paid on a pro-rata basis up to the date of termination in accordance with state law, with no salary due or earned after the date of termination. |
ii. | Bonus Potential: Employee will be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash incentive bonus targeted at One Million Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,550,000) per calendar year for 2022 (with eligible bonus for 2022 paid by the target date of February 2023) and continuing annually thereafter. This bonus will be sixty percent (60%) based on Company financial and non-financial performance against goals, and forty percent (40%) based on personal goals that will be set with Employees input (%s subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). It will be determined based on Employees performance review with the Chief Executive Officer and paid, if awarded, in February after the Compensation Committee meeting and approval process. If in any given year, the Company does not meet a minimum of fifty percent (50%) of its pre-tax income goal, no bonuses will be paid to Employee for that year, unless special considerations are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual annual discretionary cash incentive bonus paid to Employee for any given year will be both objective and subjective in nature, will be heavily dependent on both the Companys financial performance and Employees performance against his pre-established performance goals, and may end up being higher or lower than Employees annual discretionary cash incentive bonus target. |
1
iii. | Restricted Stock Units: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of the Company, as set forth below contingent upon Employees continued employment and good standing, Employee will be eligible for long term incentive compensation in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). All RSUs require the approval of the Compensation Committee and shall be governed by the Companys Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, except as modified and approved by the Compensation Committee. |
a. | LTP1 and LTP2 RSU Grant: Subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, and Employee being in good standing, beginning with any discretionary cash bonus paid in 2023, Employee will be eligible in the Companys discretion to receive an RSU grant potential equivalent of up to fifty percent (50%) of Employees actual discretionary cash bonus earned and paid each year. Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on the years overall results including the Companys performance and Employees individual performance (LTP1) (LTP1 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on progress toward achieving the Companys long-term goals and Employees contribution toward them (LTP2) (LTP2 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). These RSU grants will be part of the annual review process, with amounts determined by the Company, in its discretion, in February based on the prior calendar year. The RSU grants will be subject to a 5-year vesting schedule. |
2. | Performance-Based Compensation Clawback. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be entitled, pursuant to any policy it adopts to comply with the clawback rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or our exchange listing standards, to recover from Employee, regardless of fault, that portion of performance-based compensation which was based on financial information required to be reported under securities laws that would not have been paid in the three completed fiscal years preceding the year(s) in which an accounting restatement is required to be filed to correct a material error. Subject to applicable law, the Compensation Committee may seek to recoup such performance-based compensation by requiring Employee to repay such amount to the Company; by set-off; by reducing future compensation; or by such other means or combination of means as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate. |
3. | Cellular Phone Allowance. Employee shall be entitled to a monthly cellular phone allowance in the amount of $150.00, reimbursed through regular and timely Expense Report submittal. |
4. | Employee will be eligible for the Companys auto lease program in accordance with the Companys applicable policies. |
5. | Insurance and Retirement. Employee shall be entitled to participate in insurance packages (medical, dental, and life) in accordance with the terms of Company |
2
Insurance Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to participate in a retirement savings plan in accordance with the terms of Company 401(K) Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. |
6. | Paid Time Off (PTO): Marcus & Millichap PTO policy for Employees position does not provide for a specific amount of time off, but rather is open-ended and variable, depending on the demands and requirements of the office. The timing and amount of vacation Employee takes requires the express approval of Employees supervisor and does not accrue in any way. |

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT A
This document is Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement (hereinafter called the Agreement) between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the Company) and Richard Matricaria (Employee). The provisions hereof are an integral part of said Agreement and are fully incorporated into the Agreement. The Compensation and Fringe Benefits to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Employment Agreement (and as described below) are as of the Effective Date and will be reassessed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors (the Board).
Compensation and Fringe Benefits of Employee.
The compensation and fringe benefits to be paid to Employee for 2022 are as follows:
1. | Compensation and Special Conditions. |
i. | Salary. Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a base monthly salary of Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33), payable in semi-monthly installments, pro-rated for less than a full year of service. In the event employment is terminated, the base salary amount will be paid on a pro-rata basis up to the date of termination in accordance with state law, with no salary due or earned after the date of termination. |
ii. | Bonus Potential: Employee will be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash incentive bonus targeted at One Million Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,550,000) per calendar year for 2022 (with eligible bonus for 2022 paid by the target date of February 2023) and continuing annually thereafter. This bonus will be sixty percent (60%) based on Company financial and non-financial performance against goals, and forty percent (40%) based on personal goals that will be set with Employees input (%s subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). It will be determined based on Employees performance review with the Chief Executive Officer and paid, if awarded, in February after the Compensation Committee meeting and approval process. If in any given year, the Company does not meet a minimum of fifty percent (50%) of its pre-tax income goal, no bonuses will be paid to Employee for that year, unless special considerations are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual annual discretionary cash incentive bonus paid to Employee for any given year will be both objective and subjective in nature, will be heavily dependent on both the Companys financial performance and Employees performance against his pre-established performance goals, and may end up being higher or lower than Employees annual discretionary cash incentive bonus target. |
1
iii. | Restricted Stock Units: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of the Company, as set forth below contingent upon Employees continued employment and good standing, Employee will be eligible for long term incentive compensation in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). All RSUs require the approval of the Compensation Committee and shall be governed by the Companys Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, except as modified and approved by the Compensation Committee. |
a. | LTP1 and LTP2 RSU Grant: Subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, and Employee being in good standing, beginning with any discretionary cash bonus paid in 2023, Employee will be eligible in the Companys discretion to receive an RSU grant potential equivalent of up to fifty percent (50%) of Employees actual discretionary cash bonus earned and paid each year. Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on the years overall results including the Companys performance and Employees individual performance (LTP1) (LTP1 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on progress toward achieving the Companys long-term goals and Employees contribution toward them (LTP2) (LTP2 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). These RSU grants will be part of the annual review process, with amounts determined by the Company, in its discretion, in February based on the prior calendar year. The RSU grants will be subject to a 5-year vesting schedule. |
2. | Performance-Based Compensation Clawback. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be entitled, pursuant to any policy it adopts to comply with the clawback rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or our exchange listing standards, to recover from Employee, regardless of fault, that portion of performance-based compensation which was based on financial information required to be reported under securities laws that would not have been paid in the three completed fiscal years preceding the year(s) in which an accounting restatement is required to be filed to correct a material error. Subject to applicable law, the Compensation Committee may seek to recoup such performance-based compensation by requiring Employee to repay such amount to the Company; by set-off; by reducing future compensation; or by such other means or combination of means as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate. |
3. | Cellular Phone Allowance. Employee shall be entitled to a monthly cellular phone allowance in the amount of $150.00, reimbursed through regular and timely Expense Report submittal. |
4. | Employee will be eligible for the Companys auto lease program in accordance with the Companys applicable policies. |
5. | Insurance and Retirement. Employee shall be entitled to participate in insurance packages (medical, dental, and life) in accordance with the terms of Company |
2
Insurance Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to participate in a retirement savings plan in accordance with the terms of Company 401(K) Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. |
6. | Paid Time Off (PTO): Marcus & Millichap PTO policy for Employees position does not provide for a specific amount of time off, but rather is open-ended and variable, depending on the demands and requirements of the office. The timing and amount of vacation Employee takes requires the express approval of Employees supervisor and does not accrue in any way. |
