    THIS GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty”) is made and entered into as of May 15, 2026, by XPEL, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Guarantor”), with an address at 711 Broadway, Suite 320, San Antonio, Texas 78215, in consideration of the extension of credit by PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Bank”), with an address at 112 E Pecan Street, Suite 200, San Antonio, Texas 78205, to HARVEST VENTURES HOLDING COMPANY, a Texas corporation (the “Borrower”), and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

    1.    Guaranteed Obligations

        (a)    The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor, and becomes surety for (i) the prompt payment and performance of the Obligations and (ii) the prompt payment of all costs and expenses of the Bank (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in the documentation, negotiation, modification, enforcement, collection and otherwise in connection with the Obligations (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). As used herein, “Obligations” means all loans, advances, debts, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties owing by the Borrower to the Bank or to any other direct or indirect subsidiary of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., of any kind or nature, present or future (including any interest accruing thereon after maturity, or after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to the Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), whether direct or indirect (including those acquired by assignment or participation), absolute or contingent, joint or several, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, whether or not (i) evidenced by any note, guaranty or other instrument, (ii) arising under any agreement, instrument or document, (iii) for the payment of money, (iv) arising by reason of an extension of credit, opening of a letter of credit, loan, equipment lease or guarantee, (v) under any interest rate, commodity or currency swap, future, option or other similar transaction or agreement, (vi) under or by reason of any foreign currency transaction, forward, option or other similar transaction providing for the purchase of one currency in exchange for the sale of another currency, or in any other manner, (vii) arising out of overdrafts on deposit or other accounts or out of electronic funds transfers (whether by wire transfer or through automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the return unpaid of, or other failure of the Bank to receive final payment for, any check, item, instrument, payment order or other deposit or credit to a deposit or other account, or out of the Bank’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with depository or other similar arrangements, or (viii) arising from any amendments, extensions, renewals and increases of or to any of the foregoing.

        (b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the definition of "Obligations" shall specifically exclude any and all Excluded Swap Obligations. The foregoing limitation of the definition of Obligations shall only be deemed applicable to the obligations of the Guarantor (or solely any particular Guarantor(s) if there is more than one Guarantor) under the particular Swap (or Swaps), or, if arising under a master agreement governing more than one Swap, the portion thereof, that constitute Excluded Swap Obligations. As used herein, (i) “Excluded Swap Obligations means, with respect to each Guarantor, any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a Swap if, and to the extent that, all or any portion of this Guaranty that relates to the obligations under such Swap is or becomes illegal as to such Guarantor under the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C.§1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute (the “CEA”), or any rule, regulation, or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”), by virtue of such Guarantor’s failure for any reason to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” (as defined in the CEA and regulations promulgated thereunder) on the Eligibility Date for such
49819556v.4



Swap; (ii) “Eligibility Date means the date on which this Guaranty becomes effective with respect to the particular Swap (for the avoidance of doubt, the Eligibility Date shall be the date of the execution of the particular Swap if this Guaranty is then in effect, and otherwise it shall be the date of execution and delivery of this Guaranty); and (iii) “Swap” means any “swap” as defined in Section 1a(47) of the CEA and regulations thereunder between the Borrower and the Bank, other than (A) a swap entered into on, or subject to the rules of, a board of trade designated as a contract market under Section 5 of the CEA, or (B) a commodity option entered into pursuant to CFTC Regulation 32.3(a).

        (c)    If the Borrower defaults under any Obligations, the Guarantor will pay the Guaranteed Obligations due to the Bank.


    2.    Nature of Guaranty; Waivers. This is a guaranty of payment and performance, and not merely of collection and the Bank shall not be required or obligated, as a condition of the Guarantor's liability, to make any demand upon or to pursue any of its rights against the Borrower, or to pursue any rights which may be available to it with respect to any other person who may be liable for the payment of the Obligations.

    This is an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing guaranty and will remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and the Bank has terminated this Guaranty. This Guaranty will remain in full force and effect even if there is no principal balance outstanding under the Obligations at a particular time or from time to time. This Guaranty will not be affected by any surrender, exchange, acceptance, compromise or release by the Bank of any other party, or any other guaranty or any security held by it for any of the Obligations, by any failure of the Bank to take any steps to perfect or maintain its lien or security interest in or to preserve its rights to any security or other Collateral for any of the Obligations or any guaranty, or by any irregularity, unenforceability or invalidity of any of the Obligations or any part thereof or any security or other guaranty thereof; provided, however, that the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by any amounts actually recovered by the Bank from the Borrower or from any collateral securing the Obligations. The Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall not be affected, modified or impaired by any counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have (directly or indirectly) against the Borrower or the Bank, except payment or performance of the Obligations.

    Notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of extensions of credit to the Borrower from time to time, notice of default, diligence, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for payment, and any defense based upon the Bank's failure to comply with the notice requirements under Sections 9-611 and 9-612 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time are hereby waived. The Guarantor waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of collateral, and all defenses or benefits relating to or arising under any anti-deficiency laws.

    The Bank at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing, discharging or modifying the Guarantor's liabilities hereunder, may (a) change the manner, place, time or terms of payment or performance of or interest rates on, or other terms relating to, any of the Obligations; (b) renew, substitute, modify, amend or alter, or grant consents or waivers relating to any of the Obligations, any other guaranties, or any security for any Obligations or guaranties; (c) apply any and all payments by whomever paid or however realized including any proceeds of any Collateral, to any Obligations of the Borrower in such order, manner and amount as the Bank may determine in its sole discretion; (d) settle, compromise or deal with any other person, including the Borrower or the Guarantor, with respect to any Obligations in such manner as the Bank deems appropriate in its sole discretion; (e) substitute, exchange or release any security or guaranty; or (f) take such actions and exercise such remedies hereunder as provided herein.

- 2 -



    3.    Repayments or Recovery from the Bank. If any demand is made at any time upon the Bank for the repayment or recovery of any amount received by it in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and if the Bank repays all or any part of such amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such demand, the Guarantor will be and remain liable hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never been received originally by the Bank. The provisions of this section will be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Guarantor in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken will be without prejudice to the Bank's rights hereunder and will be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.

    4.    Financial Statements. Unless compliance is waived in writing by the Bank or until all of the Obligations have been paid in full, the Guarantor will promptly submit to the Bank such information relating to the Guarantor’s affairs (including but not limited to annual financial statements and tax returns for the Guarantor) or any security for the Guaranty as the Bank may reasonably request.

    5.    Enforceability of Obligations. No modification, limitation or discharge of the Obligations arising out of or by virtue of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law will affect, modify, limit or discharge the Guarantor's liability in any manner whatsoever and this Guaranty will remain and continue in full force and effect and will be enforceable against the Guarantor to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if any such proceeding had not been instituted. The Guarantor waives all rights and benefits which might accrue to it by reason of any such proceeding and will be liable to the full extent hereunder, irrespective of any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of the Borrower that may result from any such proceeding.

    The Guarantor expressly waives the effect of any statute of limitations or other limitations on any actions under this Guaranty.

    6.    Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be an “Event of Default”: (i) any Event of Default (as defined in any of the Obligations) that has not been cured within any applicable cure period; (ii) any default under any of the Obligations that does not have a defined set of “Events of Default” and the lapse of any notice or cure period provided in the Obligations with respect to such default; (iii) demand by the Bank under any of the Obligations that have a demand feature; (iv) the Guarantor’s failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder; (v) the falsity, inaccuracy or material breach by the Guarantor of any written warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to the Bank by or on behalf of the Guarantor; or (vi) the termination or attempted termination of this Guaranty. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, (a) the Guarantor shall pay to the Bank the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (b) on demand of the Bank, the Guarantor shall immediately deposit with the Bank, in U.S. dollars, all amounts due or to become due under the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Bank may at any time use such funds to repay the Obligations; or (c) the Bank in its discretion may exercise with respect to any Collateral any one or more of the rights and remedies provided a secured party under the applicable version of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (d) the Bank in its discretion may exercise from time to time any other rights and remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise.

    7.    Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against the Guarantor’s money, securities or other property given to the Bank by law, the Bank shall have, with respect to the Guarantor's obligations to the Bank under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and the Guarantor hereby grants Bank a security interest in, and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to the Bank all of the Guarantor's right, title and interest in and to, all of the Guarantor’s deposits, moneys, securities and other property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to, the Bank or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., whether held in a general or special account or deposit, whether held jointly with
- 3 -



someone else, or whether held for safekeeping or otherwise, excluding, however, all IRA, Keogh, and trust accounts. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to the Guarantor. Every such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder without any action of the Bank, although the Bank may enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.


    8.    Collateral. This Guaranty is secured by the property described in any collateral security documents which the Guarantor executes and delivers to the Bank and by such other Collateral as previously may have been or may in the future be granted to the Bank to secure any obligations of the Guarantor to the Bank.

    9.    Costs. To the extent that the Bank incurs any costs or expenses in protecting or enforcing its rights under the Obligations or this Guaranty, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the costs and expenses of litigation, such costs and expenses will be due on demand, will be included in the Guaranteed Obligations and will bear interest from the incurring or payment thereof at the Default Rate (as defined in any of the Obligations).

    10.    Postponement of Subrogation. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, expire, are terminated and are not subject to any right of revocation or rescission, the Guarantor postpones and subordinates in favor of the Bank or its designee (and any assignee or potential assignee) any and all rights which the Guarantor may have to (a) assert any claim whatsoever against the Borrower based on subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement, or indemnity or any right of recourse to security for the Obligations with respect to payments made hereunder, and (b) any realization on any property of the Borrower, including participation in any marshalling of the Borrower's assets; provided, however, that upon full payment and satisfaction of all Obligations, the Guarantor shall be fully subrogated to all rights of the Bank against the Borrower to the extent of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder.

    11.    Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“Notices”) must be in writing (except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty) and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the Bank and the Guarantor may agree. Without limiting the foregoing, first-class mail, postage prepaid, electronic transmission and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices. In addition, the Bank and the Guarantor agree that Notices may be sent electronically to any electronic address provided by either to the other from time to time. Notices may be sent to addresses for the Bank and the Guarantor as set forth above or to such other address as either may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this section.

    12.    Preservation of Rights; Waivers of Marshalling, Setoff, and Certain Other Rights. No delay or omission on the Bank's part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank's action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Bank's rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Bank may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. The Bank may proceed in any order against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other obligor of, or any Collateral securing, the Obligations. In addition to the other waivers hereunder, the Guarantor waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any and all rights to require the Bank to marshal assets or collateral, to proceed first against, or realize on, any assets or collateral or other credit support before proceeding against or realizing on any other assets or collateral or other credit support, or to otherwise require the Bank to exercise rights or remedies in any particular sequence, in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (ii) any and all rights to set off or reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations or any related deficiency against any obligations of the Bank, or on account of the value of any collateral or other credit support, or otherwise, whether any such rights described in this sentence are based on or asserted under any statutory provision, common law, equity or otherwise.

    14.    Changes in Writing. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Guarantor from, any provision of this Guaranty will be effective unless made in a writing signed by both the Bank and the Guarantor, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor will entitle the Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.

    15.    Entire Agreement. This Guaranty (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Guarantor and the Bank with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Guaranty is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other guarantees from the Guarantor to the Bank.

    16.    Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Guarantor and the Bank and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Guarantor may not assign this Guaranty in whole or in part without the Bank's prior written consent and the Bank at any time may assign this Guaranty in whole or in part.

In this Guaranty, unless the Bank and the Guarantor otherwise agree in writing, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular; references to statutes are to be construed as including all statutory provisions consolidating, amending or replacing the statute referred to; the word “or” shall be deemed to include “and/or”, the words “including”, “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and references to sections or exhibits are to those of this Guaranty.
