Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make term loans to Borrower on the Effective Date in an aggregate amount equal to Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) according to each Lender’s Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such term loans are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Term A Loan”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, during the Draw Period, to make term loans to Borrower, upon the request of Borrower, in an aggregate amount up to Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000) according to each Lender’s Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such term loans are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Term B Loan”; the Term A Loan or the Term B Loan is hereinafter referred to singly as a “Term Loan” and collectively as the “Term Loans”). After repayment, no Term Loan may be re-borrowed.

(b) Repayment.

Borrower shall make monthly payments to each Lender in an amount equal to all interest accrued and owing to each Lender in respect of such Lender’s Term A Loan, commencing on the first (1st) Payment Date following the Funding Date of the Term A Loan, and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date. Commencing on the Amortization Date and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall repay the Term A Loan in thirty (30) equal installments of principal (it being acknowledged that the final installment amount may be immaterially different than the other installment payments) to each Lender in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term A Loan. Borrower’s final payment on the Term A Loan, due on the Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term A Loan and all other outstanding Obligations.

Borrower’s final payment on the Term B Loan, due on the Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term B Loan and all other outstanding Obligations. Once repaid, the Term B Loan may not be reborrowed. The Term B Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.1.1(c) and 2.1.1(d).

(c) Mandatory Prepayments. If the Term Loans are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (other than with respect to Lender Expenses, which shall be paid to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, entitled thereto), an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loans, all other Obligations and all accrued interest thereon through the prepayment date, (ii) the Final Payment, (iii) the Prepayment Fee, plus (iv) all other sums that shall have become due and payable to such Lender or Agent, as applicable, including Lender Expenses and interest accrued at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts, if any.

(d) Permitted Prepayment of Term Loans. Borrower shall have the option to prepay the Term Loans, in whole or in part, which prepayments shall be paid to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (other than with respect to Lender Expenses, which shall be paid to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, entitled thereto); provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Agent and each Lender of its election to prepay the Term Loans at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) (x) in the case of a prepayment of an entire Term Loan, pays to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, on the date of such prepayment, an amount equal to the sum of: (A) all outstanding principal of such Term Loan and all other Obligations, and all accrued interest thereon through the prepayment date, plus (B) the Final Payment, plus (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other sums that shall have become due and payable to such Lender or Agent, as applicable, including Lender Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts, if any, and, (y) in the case of a prepayment of a portion of the Term Loans, pays to each Lender or Agent, as applicable, on the date of such prepayment, an amount equal to the sum of: (A) the amount of the outstanding principal of such Term Loan prepaid and all accrued interest thereon through the prepayment date, plus (B) the Partial Final Payment, plus (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other sums that shall have become due and payable to such Lender or Agent, as applicable, including Lender Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts, if any.

2.2 Intentionally Omitted.

2.3 Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.

(a) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under each Term Loan and all other outstanding Obligations shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the Basic Rate, fixed on the Funding Date of each Term Loan and all other outstanding Obligations shall accrue interest at the highest of the interest rates for the Term Loans. All such interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.1(b).

(b) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans made by each Lender, and all other outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”) unless Agent otherwise elects from time to time in its

 

2


sole discretion to impose a smaller increase. Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Lender Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agent or the Lenders.

(c) Intentionally Omitted.

(d) Computation; 360-Day Year. In computing interest, the date of the making of any Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

(e) Debit of Accounts. Agent or any of the Lenders may debit any of Borrower’s Deposit Accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or, following any cure period provided in Section 8.1, any other amounts Borrower owes Agent or the Lenders when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.

(f) Payment Date. Unless otherwise provided, interest and principal, if applicable, are payable monthly on the first calendar day of each month (each a “Payment Date”)

2.4 Fees. Borrower shall pay each Lender and, if applicable, Agent:

(a) Final Payment and Partial Final Payment. The Final Payment and the Partial Final Payment, as applicable, with respect to its Term Loans, when due hereunder;

(b) Prepayment Fee. The Prepayment Fee with respect to its Term Loans, when due hereunder; and

(c) Lender Expenses. All Lender Expenses (including reasonable external attorneys’ fees and reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due (and in the absence of any other due date specified herein, such Lender Expenses due after the Effective Date shall be due within three (3) Business Days of demand therefor).

2.5 Payments; Application of Payments.

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars, without setoff or counterclaim, before 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date when due. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.

(b) Agent and the Lenders shall apply the whole or any part of collected funds against the Term Loans, the order and method of such application to be in the sole discretion of Agent or the Lenders, as applicable. Borrower shall have no right to specify the order to which Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by Borrower to Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, or otherwise received by Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement.

2.6 Secured Promissory Notes. Each Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (each a “Secured Promissory Note”), and shall be repayable as set forth herein. Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, on or about the Funding Date of any Term Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note, an

 

3


appropriate notation on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record reflecting the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of each Term Loan set forth on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Secured Promissory Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Secured Promissory Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured Promissory Note, Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.

2.7 Issuance of Warrants to Lenders. Borrower has duly authorized issuance of the Warrants substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

2.8 SBIC Acknowledgement. Borrower acknowledges that MidCap has notified Borrower that MidCap is a Federal licensee under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended.

4.2 Priority of Security Interest. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens that have priority to Agent’s Liens solely by operation of applicable law and subject, for the following Collateral, to the occurrence of the following (i) in the case of all Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing a financing statement under the Code, the completion of the filings with the appropriate filing office, (ii) with respect to any deposit account, commodities account or securities account held at a bank other than Agent, the execution of account control agreements by and among Agent, the owner of the account and the financial institution where such account is maintained, (iii) in the case of letter of credit rights, the execution of a contractual obligation granting control (as “control” is contemplated as a manner of perfection in the applicable sections of the Code) and (iv) in the case of investment property, instruments and chattel paper, the completion of all steps necessary to grant control (as “control” is contemplated as a manner of perfection in the applicable sections of the Code) to Bank over such investment property, instruments and chattel paper.

Nothing in this Section 4.2 shall have any effect on the obligations of Borrower under Section 6.12.

4.3 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Agent’s and the Lenders’ interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, except to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Agent and the Lenders under the Code.

Borrower represents and warrants that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address

If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Agent of such occurrence and provide Agent with Borrower’s organizational identification number if an organizational identification number is issued.

The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect or (v) constitute an event of default under any agreement by which Borrower of any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties is bound, except, in the cases of subsections (ii) or (v) above, as could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Change. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

5.2 Collateral.

(a) Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens.

(b) The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate. None of the components of the Collateral (other than consigned inventory held with Borrower’s customers) with an aggregate value in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) shall be maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate (as may be updated from time to time with the written consent of Agent) or as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2.

Except for claims made in the Palomar Litigation, to Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

  9 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, do any or all of the following:

(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Agent);

(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Agent (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all commitments and obligations to advance money or extend credit to Borrower on the part of Agent shall cease and terminate immediately without any action by Agent and/or Lenders);

(c) notify each Lender to stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and the Lenders (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all commitments and obligations to advance money or extend credit to Borrower on the part of any Lender shall cease and terminate immediately without any action by Agent and/or Lenders);

(d) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Agent considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Agent’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

(e) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Agent requests and

 

18


make it available as Agent designates. Agent may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Agent a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Agent’s rights or remedies;

(f) apply to the Obligations any (a) balances and deposits of Borrower that Agent or any Lender holds or controls, or (b) any amount held or controlled by Agent or any Lender owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

(g) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Agent is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Agent’s benefit;

(h) place a “hold” on any account maintained with a Lender and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

(i) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books;

(j) foreclose upon and/or sell or otherwise liquidate, the Collateral;

(k) commence and prosecute an Insolvency Proceeding or consent to Borrower commencing any Insolvency Proceeding; and

(l) exercise all rights and remedies available to Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

9.2 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Agent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Agent or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Agent and the Lenders are under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Agent’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

9.3 Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5, or fails to pay any premium thereon , or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is party or fails to pay any maintenance fees, extension fee or other fees or payments payable to any Governmental Authority necessary to continue, maintain, preserve or protect any Intellectual Property of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and/or any rights and remedies of Borrower and its Subsidiaries with respect to such Intellectual Property, Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Agent are Lender Expenses owing to Agent and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Agent obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Agent’s or any Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

19


9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of Borrower of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower on the one hand and Agent and Lenders on the other, Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Agent, and (b) the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to the Lender Expenses; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding; and fourth, to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower owing to Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrower or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category. Any reference in this Agreement to an allocation between or sharing by the Lenders of any right, interest or obligation “ratably,” “proportionally” or in similar terms shall refer to Pro Rata Share unless expressly provided otherwise. Agent, or if applicable, each Lender, shall promptly remit to the other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable repayment of each Lender’s portion of any Term Loan and the ratable distribution of interest, fees and reimbursements paid or made by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender receiving a scheduled payment shall not be responsible for determining whether the other Lenders also received their scheduled payment on such date; provided, however, if it is later determined that a Lender received more than its ratable share of scheduled payments made on any date or dates, then such Lender shall remit to the Agent or other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as instructed by Agent. Any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities, shall be received by a Lender in excess of its ratable share, then the portion of such payment or distribution in excess of such Lender’s ratable share shall be received by such Lender in trust for and shall be promptly paid over to the other Lender for application to the payments of amounts due on the other Lender’s claims. To the extent any payment for the account of Borrower is required to be returned as a voidable transfer or otherwise, the Lenders shall contribute to one another as is necessary to ensure that such return of payment is on a pro rata basis. If any Lender shall obtain possession of any Collateral, it shall hold such Collateral for itself and as agent and bailee for the Agent and other Lenders for purposes of perfecting Agent’s security interest therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any warrants issued to the Lenders by Borrower, the stock issuable thereunder, any equity securities purchased by Lenders, any amounts paid thereunder, any dividends, and any other rights in connection therewith shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall affect any Lender’s rights under any such warrants, stock, or other equity securities to administer, manage, transfer, assign, or exercise such warrants, stock, or other equity securities for its own account.

9.5 Liability for Collateral. So long as Agent complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Agent, Agent shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Agent’s and/or any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Agent and/or Lenders, as applicable in accordance with Section 12.17, and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Agent and Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the Code, at law or in equity. Agent’s or any Lender’s exercise of one right or remedy or any partial exercise thereof is not an election and shall

 

20


not preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other right, power or privilege, and Agent’s and Lenders’ waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Agent’s and/or Lenders’ delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

9.7 Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Agent on which Borrower is liable.

9.8 Borrower Liability. If more than one (1) Borrower is party to this Agreement then the following Section 9.8 shall apply. Either Borrower may, acting singly, request Term Loans hereunder. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Term Loans hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Term Loans made hereunder and all other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Term Loans, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Term Loans. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable Law, and (b) any right to require the Lenders or Agent to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. The Lenders or Agent may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy they have against any Borrower or any security (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at Law or in equity (including, without limitation, any Law subrogating Borrower to the rights of the Lenders and Agent under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for the Lenders and Agent and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

  11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER, AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE

California Law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of Law. Borrower, Agent and each Lender each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Agent from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Agent or any of the Lenders. Borrower, Agent and each Lender each expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower, Agent and each Lender hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower, Agent and each Lender each hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by accordance with, Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER, AGENT AND THE LENDERS EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal Law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not

 

22


been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of Law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

 

  12 GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.1 Successors and Assigns.

(a) This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Agent’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Agent’s and each Lender’s discretion). Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Lender’s Loan, together with all related obligations of such Lender hereunder. Borrower and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement (each an “Assignment Agreement”) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto, and shall have received such other information regarding such Eligible Assignee as Agent reasonably shall require, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such assignment shall be effective until it is reflected in the register required by Section 12.1(b) hereof. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(b) Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at its offices located in Bethesda, Maryland a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the commitments of, and principal amount of the Term Loans owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof. The entries in such register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent.

12.2 Indemnification.

(a) Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Agent and the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Agent or the Lenders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (ii) all losses or expenses (including Lender Expenses) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Indemnified Person from, following, or arising from transactions between Agent, and/or the Lenders and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except, in each case, for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”).

(b) Borrower hereby further indemnifies, defends and holds each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of

 

23


counsel for such Indemnitee) in connection with any investigative, response, remedial, administrative or judicial matter or proceeding, whether or not such Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto and including any such proceeding initiated by or on behalf of Borrower, and the reasonable expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical personnel and any commission, fee or compensation claimed by any broker (other than any broker retained by Agent or Lenders) asserting any right to payment for the transactions contemplated hereby which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the use or intended use of the proceeds of the loan proceeds, except, in each case, for liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and/or disbursements directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) To the extent that the undertaking set forth in this Section 12.2 may be unenforceable, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all such indemnified liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.

12.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.

12.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.

12.5 Correction of Loan Documents. Agent may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties so long as Agent provides Borrower and the Lenders with written notice of such correction and allows Borrower and the Lenders at least ten (10) days to object to such correction. In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment signed by Agent, the Lenders and Borrower.

12.6 Integration. This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

12.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

12.8 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid in full and satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Agent and the Lenders shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.

12.9 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information of Borrower, the Lenders and Agent shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to the Lenders’ and Agent’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates and each director, officer, employee, agent, trustee, representative, attorney, accountant and each insurance, environmental, legal, financial and other advisor and other consultants and agents of or to such person or entity or any of its Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, the Lenders and Agent shall use their best efforts to obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by Law, regulation, subpoena, or other order (but excluding any requirement or request made by a regulator of Agent or any Lender which is covered by clause (d) of this Section 12.9 set forth below); provided that Agent or such applicable Lender will endeavor to give notice to Borrower in order to permit Borrower to contest such regulation, subpoena or other order; (d) to regulators or as otherwise required in connection with an examination or audit; (e) as Agent considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third party service providers of the Lenders and/or Agent other than the entities set forth in clause (a) so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with the Lenders and Agent with terms no less

Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

13.2 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through its, or its Affiliates’, agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to obtain and rely upon the advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

13.3 Liability of Agent. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, Borrower’s Books or any Affiliate thereof.

13.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of all Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of all Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

13.5 Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default and/or Event of Default, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower, expressly stating that such Event of Default exists and describing such default or Event of Default. Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to an Event of Default as may be directed in writing by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9.1; provided, however, that while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as Agent shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders, including without limitation, satisfaction of other security interests, liens or encumbrances on the Collateral not permitted under the Loan Documents, payment of taxes on behalf of Borrower, and other actions to protect and safeguard the Collateral, and actions with respect to insurance claims for casualty events affecting Borrower and/or the Collateral and payments to landlords, warehouseman, bailees and other Persons in possession of the Collateral, payments to Governmental Authorities to maintain, continue, preserve

 

27


and protect the Intellectual Property of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and/or the rights and remedies of Borrower and its Subsidiaries with respect thereto. All costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in taking actions described in this Section 13.5 (including any and all such amounts so paid by Agent) are Lender Expenses owing to Agent and immediately due and payable by the Borrower, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral.

13.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent herein, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any of its Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

13.7 Indemnification of Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall, severally and pro rata based on its respective Pro Rata Share, indemnify, within thirty (30) days after written demand, each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (which shall not include legal expenses of Agent incurred in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 13.7. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall, severally and pro rata based on its respective Pro Rata Share, reimburse Agent, within thirty (30) days after written demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Lender Expenses incurred after the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) incurred by Agent (in its capacity as Agent, and not as a Lender) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations, the termination of this Agreement and the resignation of Agent.

13.8 Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its Credit Extensions, MidCap shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include MidCap in its individual capacity.

13.9 Successor Agent.

(a) Agent may at any time assign its rights, powers, privileges and duties hereunder to (i) another Lender, or (ii) any Person to whom Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, has assigned (or will assign, in conjunction with such assignment of agency rights hereunder) 50% or more of its Loan, in each case without the

 

28


consent of the Lenders or Borrowers. Following any such assignment, Agent shall give notice to the Lenders and Borrowers. An assignment by Agent pursuant to this subsection (a) shall not be deemed a resignation by Agent for purposes of subsection (b) below.

(b) Without limiting the rights of Agent to designate an assignee pursuant to subsection (a) above, Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent; provided, however, that if Agent shall notify Borrowers and the Lenders that no Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice from Agent that no Person has accepted such appointment and, from and following delivery of such notice, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this subsection (b).

The fees payable by Borrowers to an assignee or successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the assigning or retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 13 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such assigning or retiring Agent and its sub-agents in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the assigning or retiring Agent was acting

13.10 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower, Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan, shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

To the extent that Agent fails timely to do so, each Lender may file a claim relating to such Lender’s claim.

SCHEDULE A-1

COMMERCIAL TORT CLAIMS

1. A lawsuit, TRIA Beauty, Inc. v.

Hair hair-removal device, asserting that Radiancy has engaged in false advertising, trademark infringement and unfair competition, and seeking money damages and injunctive relief; the complaint was amended by Borrower in June 2011 to add a claim regarding Radiancy’s advertising for its no!no! Skin acne-treatment product.

2. A lawsuit, TRIA Beauty, Inc. v. Oregon Aesthetic Technologies, Inc., Case No. 10-cv-05053, filed by Borrower on November 8, 2010 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Oregon Aesthetic Technologies (“OAT”), asserting that OAT engaged in unfair competition and false advertising and seeking money damages and injunctive relief.

TRIA Beauty, Inc., Case No. 10-cv-1362, in United States District Court for the District of Oregon. In the Oregon suit, Borrower filed an Answer and Counterclaim on March 3, 2011, alleging that OAT engaged in unfair competition and false advertising, and seeking money damages and injunctive relief. On December 12, 2011, the California court entered an order transferring the California case to the District of Oregon.
