2.LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
2.1Promise to Pay. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay each Lender, ratably, the outstanding principal amount of all Loans advanced by such Lender, accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges thereon and to pay all other Obligations as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
2.2Availability and Repayment or Conversion of the Loans.
(a)Availability.
(i)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make to Borrowers an advance on the Closing Date in principal amount equal to its First Tranche Term Loan Commitment (the “First Tranche Term Loans”). The First Tranche Term Loan Commitments shall consist of the First Tranche Part A Term Loan Commitment, which is subject to conversion in accordance with Section 2.2(e), and the First Tranche Part B Term Loan Commitment. Lenders’ commitments to



make the First Tranche Term Loans shall terminate upon the funding of the First Tranche Term Loans on the Closing Date.
(ii)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make to Borrowers an advance during the Second Tranche Availability Period in principal amount equal to its Second Tranche Term Loan Commitment (the “Second Tranche Term Loans”). Lenders’ commitments to make the Second Tranche Term Loans shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the end of the Second Tranche Availability Period, and (ii) the date the Second Tranche Term Loans have been funded.
(iii)Subject to achievement of the Third Tranche Milestone and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make to Borrowers an advance during the Third Tranche Availability Period in principal amount up to its Third Tranche Term Loan Commitment (the “Third Tranche Term Loans”), provided that if the amount of the Third Tranche Term Loan requested is less than the remaining aggregate Third Tranche Term Loan Commitments, each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata Share of the requested Third Tranche Term Loan. Lenders’ commitment to make the Third Tranche Term Loans shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the end of the Third Tranche Availability Period, and (ii) the date a Third Tranche Term Loan has been funded.
(iv)Subject to Lenders’ review of Borrowers’ clinical and financial/operating plan at the time of a requested funding of a Loan under this subsection (each a “Fourth Tranche Term Loan”, and collectively the “Fourth Tranche Term Loans”, and together with the First Tranche Term Loans, the Second Tranche Term Loans and the Third Tranche Term Loans, collectively, the “Term Loans”, and each, a “Term Loan”), each Lender may, severally and not jointly, make to Borrowers one or more advance at any time prior to the Amortization Date in an aggregate principal amount up to its respective Fourth Tranche Term Loan Amount. Lenders have no commitment to make any Fourth Tranche Term Loans, which may be made in their sole and absolute discretion.
Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Term Loans (i) to repay existing outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower Representative owing to Banc of California, and (ii) for working capital and general corporate purposes, and with respect to any Fourth Tranche Term Loan, including for any other purpose approved by Lenders in connection with the approval of the funding thereof. Once repaid, no Term Loans may be reborrowed.
(b)Repayment. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing thereafter on each Payment Date through the Term Loan Maturity Date, Borrowers shall make consecutive monthly payments of equal principal and interest, in an amount which would fully amortize the principal amount of the Term Loans and accrued interest thereon by the Term Loan Maturity Date, provided that if the Applicable Rate is adjusted, the Amortization Date is extended in accordance with its terms, or any portion of the principal amount is converted, the amortization schedule and the required monthly installment shall be recalculated based on the adjusted Applicable Rate and/or the adjusted number of Payment Dates through the Term Loan Maturity Date. Any and all unpaid Obligations, including principal and accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Term Loans the fees pursuant to the Fee Letter and any other fees and other sums due hereunder, if any, shall be due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date. The Term Loans may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) or (d).
(c)Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. If the Loans are accelerated following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default by Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.1, Borrowers shall immediately pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of:
(i)all outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus
(ii)all amounts then due in accordance with the Fee Letter, plus
(iii)all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.
(d)Permitted Prepayment of Loans. Borrowers shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Loans, provided Borrowers provide written notice to Administrative Agent of its election to
2


prepay the Loans at least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its discretion) prior to such prepayment, and pay, on the date of such prepayment, to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of:
(i)all outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, plus
(ii)all amounts then due in accordance with the Fee Letter, plus
(iii)all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(d), any notice of prepayment hereunder may state that such prepayment is conditioned upon the effectiveness of a refinancing or any other transaction, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked or extended by Borrowers on or prior to the specified effective date of such prepayment if such condition is not satisfied.
(e)Conversion at Lenders’ Election.
(i)Conversion Election. Lenders may jointly elect at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the repayment or prepayment in full of the First Tranche Part A Term Loans to convert any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the First Tranche Part A Term Loan then outstanding (the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of Common Stock (“Conversion Shares”) at the Conversion Price pursuant to a Conversion Election Notice, to be delivered at the direction of Lenders by Administrative Agent to Issuer, provided that the aggregate principal amount converted to Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.2(e) shall not exceed $5,000,000 (any such conversion, a “Lender Conversion”). A Conversion Election Notice, once delivered, shall be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed in writing by Issuer and subject to subsection (ii) below. On the third trading day after a Conversion Election Notice has been duly delivered in accordance with the foregoing, Issuer shall credit to each Designated Holder a number of Conversion Shares equal to (x) the Conversion Amount indicated in the applicable Conversion Election Notice divided by (y) Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share; provided that if transfer agent for Issuer’s Common Stock is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and provided that the applicable Designated Holder is eligible to receive Conversion Shares through DTC and the restrictive legend has been removed from such Conversion Shares in accordance with Section 2.2(e)(x), such credit of Conversion Shares shall be made to Designated Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system. The issuance of the Conversion Shares to the Lenders in accordance with this Section 2.2(e)(i) will constitute a satisfaction in full of the Conversion Amount by the Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, except for fees accruing in respect of Loans advanced as set forth in paragraph 2 of the Fee Letter, no premium, penalty or Prepayment Fee (as defined in the Fee Letter) shall apply to the principal amounts of the Loans converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2.2(e).
(ii)Reservation of Shares. Issuer shall reserve from its duly authorized and unreserved capital stock not less than the number of Conversion Shares that may be issuable pursuant to a conversion of the then outstanding First Tranche Part A Term Loan principal amount pursuant to this Section 2.2(e), provided that if at any time Issuer no longer has sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of the then outstanding First Tranche Part A Term Loan principal amount (without regard to any applicable cap on conversion pursuant to subsection (vi) and (vii) below), then Issuer shall promptly take all action necessary to increase its authorized and unreserved Conversion Shares to an amount sufficient to cure such shortfall. In the event that upon any delivery of a Conversion Election Notice there are insufficient authorized and unreserved Conversion Shares to deliver in satisfaction of such Conversion Election Notice, then the applicable Lender may elect to void such Conversion Election Notice. Upon issuance of Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 2.2(e), such shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, any liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and shall be free of any restrictions on transfer, except for any restrictions under Federal or state securities laws.
(iii)Rule 144. With a view to making available to Designated Holders the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange
3


Commission (the “SEC”) that may at any time permit Designated Holders to sell shares of Common Stock issuable (directly or indirectly) pursuant to a Conversion Election Notice to the public without registration, Issuer shall: (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until six (6) months after such date as all of Conversion Shares issued may be sold without restriction by Designated Holders pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect; (B) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports and other documents required of Issuer under the Exchange Act; and (C) furnish to Designated Holders, upon request, as long as Designated Holders own any Conversion Shares issued pursuant to a Conversion Election Notice, such information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail Designated Holders of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any Conversion Shares issued without registration.
(iv)Registration Rights. If Issuer decides to register any of its securities for its own account or for the account of others (if the agreement pursuant to which such securities are being registered for the account of others so allows), then Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration all or any part of the Conversion Shares issued or issuable requested by Administrative Agent to be included therein. This requirement does not apply to registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or their equivalents (relating to equity securities to be issued in connection with an acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans) or to registration statements that would otherwise not permit the registration of re-sales of previously issued securities, or to the extent, as of any date of determination, the Conversion Shares may be sold by the applicable Designated Holder pursuant to Rule 144, without any time, volume or manner limitations (or any similar provision then in effect).
(v)Authorization. For so long as Designated Holders hold any Conversion Shares issued pursuant to this Section 2.2(e), Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Common Stock’s authorization for listing on a Trading Market and Issuer shall not take any action which would reasonably be expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on such national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.
(vi)Limitations on Conversion.
(A)Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Issuer shall not issue a number of Conversion Shares pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) to the extent that, upon such issuance, the number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by each Designated Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Designated Holders for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act would exceed 9.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “9.985% Cap”); provided that the 9.985% Cap shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act, provided further that Lenders shall have the right, upon 61 days’ prior written notice to Issuer, to waive the 9.985% Cap.
(B)Principal Market Regulation. Issuer shall not issue a number of Conversion Shares pursuant to this Section 2.2(e), if the issuance of such shares together with any previously issued Conversion Shares, would result in (A) the issuance of more than 19.99% of the Common Stock outstanding as of the Closing Date or (B) Designated Holders, together with their Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Designated Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, beneficially owning in excess of 19.99% of the then outstanding Common Stock and, in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Conversion Amount will be reduced as necessary to ensure compliance with the foregoing.
(C)Beneficial Ownership Determination. For purposes of this Section 2.2(e), “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the SEC, and the percentage held by each Designated Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon the written request of Administrative Agent, Issuer shall, within two (2) trading days, confirm to Administrative Agent the number of Shares then outstanding. As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.
4


(vii)Certain Adjustments. If Issuer declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the outstanding Conversion Shares payable in Common Stock or other securities or property (other than cash), then upon exercise of any conversion option in accordance with this Section 2.2(e), for each Conversion Share acquired, Designated Holder shall receive, without additional cost to Designated Holder, the total number and kind of securities and property which Designated Holder would have received had Designated Holder owned the Conversion Shares of record as of the date the dividend or distribution occurred. Upon any event whereby all of the outstanding Common Stock of Issuer is reclassified, converted, exchanged, combined, divided, substituted, or replaced for, into, with or by securities of a different class and/or series, then from and after the consummation of such event, the Conversion Shares issuable will be the number, class and series of securities that Designated Holder would have received had the Conversion Shares been outstanding on and as of the consummation of such event, and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly. The provisions of this Section 2.2(e)(vii) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations substitutions, replacements or other similar events. Issuer shall promptly notify Lenders of any event causing an adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.2(e)(vii), and at Lenders’ request, shall deliver a certificate of adjustment, setting forth the adjustment and attaching calculations supporting the same, certified by a Responsible Officer.
(viii)No Fractional Shares. Upon any Lender Conversion, any fraction of a Conversion Share will be rounded down to the next whole share or unit of the Conversion Shares, and in lieu of such fractional shares to which the Designated Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Issuer shall, at its option, either pay the Designated Holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the applicable Conversion Price, or return such amount to principal under the First Tranche Part A Term Loan.
(ix)Exemption from Registration. Assuming the accuracy of representations and warranties made by Lenders in this Agreement and the accuracy of representations and warranties of Designated Holders in the Conversion Election Notice, the Loans and the associated right to Lender Conversion are exempt from registration under the Securities Act (pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder) and applicable state securities laws. Issuer is not disqualified from reliance upon Rule 506 of Regulation D for purposes of the Loan and any Lender Conversion, including due to any “Bad Act” disqualification.
(x)Restrictive Legends. Any Note evidencing a First Tranche Part A Term Loan and any certificate evidencing the Conversion Shares may contain a securities legend restricting the transfer thereof, in substantially the following form as long as none of the Unrestricted Conditions have been met:
THIS NOTE AND RELATED RIGHT TO CONVERSION, AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER SECTION 4(A)7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT.
In the event and for so long as a registration statement covering the resale of the Conversion Shares is effective under the Securities Act, Issuer shall, subject to and in accordance with this paragraph, provide or cause its legal counsel to provide to the transfer agent one or more opinions or authorizations regarding the removal of the Securities Act legend applicable to any Conversion Shares. If a legend removal request is made pursuant to the foregoing, Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to, no later than two Business Days following (i) the delivery by Designated Holder to the transfer agent of a legended certificate representing Conversion Shares (or a request for legend removal, in the case of such securities being issued in book-entry form) and (ii) receipt of confirmation of the sale of such security pursuant to the applicable registration statement in accordance with the plan of distribution described therein, deliver or cause to be delivered to the transferee a certificate representing such security that is free from all restrictive legends or an equivalent book-entry position, as requested by Designated Holder; provided that Issuer and its transfer agent have timely received from Designated Holder a seller representation letter regarding such disposition in a form reasonably satisfactory to Issuer and its transfer agent. Any time after a minimum of one year has elapsed from the date of the acquisition of the Conversion Shares from Issuer (or successor entity) and pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act,
5


such that the transferee of such securities (provided that Issuer has been a reporting company during such one-year period) acquires the Conversion Shares that need not bear any restrictive legends, and upon compliance by Designated Holder with the requirements of this Section 2.2(e) and (f), if requested by Designated Holder, Issuer shall, subject to and in accordance with this paragraph, provide or cause its legal counsel to provide to the transfer agent one or more opinions or authorizations regarding the removal of legends in reliance on such rule or other exemption. If a legend removal request is made pursuant to the foregoing, Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to, no later than two Business Days following the delivery by Designated Holder to the transfer agent of a legended certificate representing such Conversion Shares (or a request for legend removal, in the case of such securities being issued in book-entry form), deliver or cause to be delivered to the transferee a certificate representing such Conversion Shares that is free from all restrictive legends or an equivalent book-entry position, as requested by Designated Holder; provided that Issuer or the transfer agent has timely received from Designated Holder representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to Issuer and the transfer agent in connection therewith.
(xi)Designated Holder as intended third party beneficiary. Each Designated Holder is an intended third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section 2.2(e).
(f)Representations of Lenders and Designated Holders. In connection with the making of the First Tranche Part A Term Loans and the related right to Lender Conversion, each Lender hereby represents and warrants, with respect to such Lender and related Designated Holder only:
(i)Investment for Own Account. The First Tranche Part A Term Loans and the right to Lender Conversion and any Note evidencing the same with respect thereto will be acquired by each Lender for such Lender’s own account, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act, except pursuant to sales registered or in a transaction exempted under the Securities Act, and such Lender and related Designated Holder have no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of the Securities Act without prejudice, however, to such Lender’s or Designated Holder’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Conversion Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by such Lender to hold the First Tranche Part A Term Loans and the right to Lender Conversion and any Note evidencing the same for any period of time and such Lender reserves the right to transfer the same at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.
(ii)Disclosure of Information. Each Lender and Designated Holder is aware of the business affairs and financial condition of Issuer and has received or has had full access to all information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the making of the First Tranche Part A Term Loans, and the related right to Lender Conversion. Each Lender represents that it and each Designated Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Issuer regarding the terms and conditions thereof and to obtain additional information (to the extent Issuer possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to such Lender or Designated Holder or to which such Lender or Designated Holder has access.
(iii)Investment Experience. Such Lender and related Designated Holder understand that the Conversion Shares involve substantial risk. Such Lender and related Designated Holder have experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that such Lender and Designated Holder can bear the economic risk and complete loss of its investment in the First Tranche Part A Term Loans and the right to Lender Conversion (and any Note) and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment contemplated hereby.
(iv)Restricted Securities. Such Lender and Designated Holder understand that (i) the First Tranche Part A Term Loans and the right to Lender Conversion (and any Note evidencing the First Tranche Part A Term Loans) are characterized as “restricted securities” under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from Issuer in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may not be resold except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and (ii) there is now no registration statement on file with the SEC with respect to the First
6


Tranche Part A Term Loans and the right to Lender Conversion and the Issuer has no obligation, except in accordance with Section 2.2(e)(iv) above, or current intention to register the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act.
(v)Accredited Investor. Such Lender and Designated Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
2.3Payment of Interest.
(a)Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall accrue interest from and after its Funding Date, at the Applicable Rate, and Borrowers shall pay such interest monthly in arrears on each Payment Date commencing on June 1, 2024.
(b)Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest, at the election of Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Secured Party Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest interest 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 pursuant to the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that interest at the Default Rate is a reasonable calculation of Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an Event of Default.
(c)Payment; Interest Computation. Interest is payable monthly in arrears on the Payment Date of the following month and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In computing interest, (i) all payments received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on any day shall be deemed received at the opening of business on the next Business Day, and (ii) the date of the making of any Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded. Changes to the Applicable Rate based on changes to the Prime Rate, shall be effective as of the date, and to the extent, of such change.
(d)Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (the “Maximum Rate”). If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that a Borrower has actually paid to or for the benefit of Lenders an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if all of the Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrowers shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment then due of principal outstanding in respect of the Loans; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of accrued interest, third, to the payment of Secured Party Expenses and any other Obligations; and fourth, after all Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrowers or paid to whomsoever may be legally entitled thereto, provided that amounts payable to Lenders, shall be paid ratably.
2.4Fees and Charges. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties:
(a)Fees. The fees and charges as and when due in accordance with the Fee Letter; and
(b)Expenses. All Secured Party Expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) incurred through and after the Closing Date, when due (or, if no stated due date, within ten (10) Business Days after delivery by Administrative Agent of an invoice with respect thereto).
2.5Payments; Application of Payments; Automatic Payment Authorization; Withholding.
(a)All payments to be made by Borrowers under any Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest and all fees, charges, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made in
7


immediately available funds in Dollars, without setoff, recoupment or counterclaim, before 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date when due, subject to Schedule 3 with respect to Taxes. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 3:00 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)No Borrower shall have a right to specify the order or the loan accounts to which a Lender shall allocate or apply any payments made by a Borrower to or for the benefit of such Lender or otherwise received by such Lender under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not expressly specified elsewhere in this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, unless expressly so allocated by Administrative Agent, no payment or prepayment of principal shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance under any outstanding First Tranche Part A Term Loans unless all other Term Loans have been repaid in full.
(c)Administrative Agent, on behalf of Secured Parties, may initiate debit entries to any Deposit Accounts as authorized on the Automatic Payment Authorization for principal and interest payments or any other Obligations when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off. If the ACH payment arrangement is terminated for any reason, Borrowers shall make all payments due hereunder at the applicable address specified in Section 10, or as otherwise notified by Administrative Agent in writing.
(d)Each Loan Party and each Secured Party hereby agrees to the terms and conditions set forth on Schedule 3 hereto.
2.6Promissory Notes. Borrowers agree that: (a) upon written notice by or on behalf of any Lender to Borrowers that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is requested by such Lender to evidence the Loans and other Obligations owing or payable to, or to be made by, such Lender, Borrowers shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days of any such request) execute and deliver to such Lender an appropriate promissory note, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, and (b) upon any Lender’s written request, and in any event within a reasonable time after any such request, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender new notes and/or divide the notes in exchange for then existing notes in such smaller amounts or denominations as such Lender shall specify in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of such new notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Loans made by such Lender; provided, further, that such promissory notes that are to be replaced shall then be deemed no longer outstanding hereunder and replaced by such new notes and returned to Borrowers within a reasonable period of time after such Lender’s receipt of the replacement notes. Regardless of whether or not any such promissory notes are issued, this Agreement shall evidence the Loans and other Obligations owing or payable by Borrowers to each Lender.

4.CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
4.1Grant of Security Interest. Each Loan Party hereby grants to Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Collateral Trustee, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof. If this Agreement is terminated, Collateral Trustee’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Termination Date. Upon the Termination Date, the Liens shall be released in accordance with Section 12.1.
4.2Priority of Security Interest. Each Loan Party 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 are permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to have superior priority to Collateral Trustee’s Lien under this Agreement). If a Loan Party shall acquire a commercial tort claim with a potential recovery in excess of $500,000, such Loan Party shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing and deliver such other information and documents as Administrative Agent may require to take any further action necessary or advisable to perfect Collateral Trustee’s Lien in such commercial tort claim. If a Loan Party shall acquire any instrument with a face value in excess of $500,000, such Loan Party shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and, at Administrative Agent’s request, deliver the same in original to Collateral Trustee together with an allonge or other appropriate instrument of transfer and any necessary endorsement, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
4.3Authorization to File Financing Statements. Each Loan Party hereby authorizes Collateral Trustee or its designee (or Administrative Agent, on behalf of Collateral Trustee) to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Collateral Trustee’s interest or rights hereunder.
4.4Pledge of Collateral. Each Loan Party hereby pledges, collaterally assigns and grants to Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, a security interest in the Shares to the extent constituting Collateral, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. On the Closing Date or to the extent any Shares pledged hereunder from time to time are or become certificated, concurrently with the delivery of the next Compliance Certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(c) after such Shares are acquired or certificated, such certificate or certificates shall be delivered to Collateral Trustee, accompanied by a stock power or other appropriate instrument of assignment duly executed in blank. To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the Equity Interests in which a Loan Party has an interest, such Loan Party shall cause the books of each Person whose Equity Interests are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Equity Interests. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, Collateral Trustee (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent) may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Equity Interests) into the name of Collateral Trustee and cause new certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Collateral Trustee or its transferee. Each Loan Party will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of Collateral Trustee’s security interest in the Shares. Each Loan Party shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares in which it has an interest and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, unless following an Event of Default, Collateral Trustee (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement) shall have given notice to Borrower Representative suspending such rights, provided that no such notice shall be required if a Loan Party has commenced an Insolvency Proceeding and, in any event, no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the notification by Collateral Trustee (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent) to Borrower Representative of the exercise of remedies in accordance with the terms hereof.

5.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Each Loan Party represents and warrants as follows:
5.1Due Organization, Authorization; Power and Authority.
(a)Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries is duly existing and in good standing as a Registered Organization in its respective jurisdiction of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its respective business or ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. In connection with this Agreement, Borrower Representative has delivered to Administrative Agent a completed certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower Representative entitled “Perfection Certificate”. Except to the extent Borrower Representative has provided notice of a legal name change in accordance with Section 7.2, (i) each Loan Party’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (ii) each Loan Party is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (iii) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth each Loan Party’s organizational identification number or accurately states that such Loan Party has none; (iv) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth each Loan Party’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as such Loan Party’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); (v) except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate, each Loan Party has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (vi) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete in all material respects (it being understood and agreed that (i) each Loan Party may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Closing Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement, (ii) any such information reported by Borrower Representative on the Compliance Certificate from time to time shall be deemed to update such information on the Perfection Certificate after the Closing Date and (iii) no Loan Party shall be in breach of this Agreement for any changes that are reported on the next Compliance Certificate following such change to the extent such updates are resulting from actions, transactions, circumstances or events not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; such updated Perfection Certificates subject to the review and approval of Administrative Agent unless such facts, events or circumstances being updated first arose or occurred after the Closing Date and do not constitute a breach, default, or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If any Loan Party is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such occurrence and provide Administrative Agent with such Person’s organizational identification number within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such organizational identification number).
(b)The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with such Loan Party’s Operating Documents or other organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any material applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which such Loan Party 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 for filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which do not require any consent by any Governmental Authority, such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect or are being obtained pursuant to Section 6.1, or filings required to perfect the security interest granted herein), or (v) conflict with, contravene, constitute a default or breach under, or result in or permit the termination or acceleration of, any material agreement by which such Loan Party is bound. No Loan Party is in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.2Collateral.
(a)Each Loan Party has good title to, 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.
11


(b)Except for the Collateral Accounts described in the Perfection Certificate or in a notice timely delivered pursuant to Section 6.6, no Loan Party has any Collateral Accounts at or with any bank, broker or other financial institution, and each Loan Party has taken such actions as are necessary to give Collateral Trustee a perfected security interest therein as required pursuant to the terms of Section 6.6(b). The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.
(c)The Collateral is located only at the locations identified in the Perfection Certificate and any other locations as to which Loan Parties have complied with Section 6.12. The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate, in an Excluded Location or as disclosed in writing pursuant to Section 6.12.
(d)Each Loan Party is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property which it owns or purports to own except for (i) licenses constituting “Permitted Transfers”, (ii) open-source software, (iii) over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public, (iv) material Intellectual Property licensed to such Loan Party and noted on the Perfection Certificate or as disclosed pursuant to Section 6.7(b), and (v) immaterial Intellectual Property licensed to such Loan Party. Each Patent (other than patent applications) which such Loan Party owns or purports to own and which is material to such Loan Party’s business is, to their knowledge, valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which a Loan Party owns or purports to own and which is material to the Loan Parties’ business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part except, in each case, as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the best of each Loan Party’s knowledge, no claim has been made in writing that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate or as disclosed pursuant to Section 6.7(b), no Loan Party is a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted License. No Subsidiary which is not a Loan Party owns any material Intellectual Property. It will not be necessary to use any inventions of any of such Loan Party’s employees or consultants (or Persons it currently intends to hire) made prior to their employment by such Loan Party which, if not owned by such Loan Party or their respective Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each current and prior employee, consultant or other Affiliate thereof has entered into an invention assignment agreement or similar agreement with each applicable Loan Party with respect to all intellectual property rights he or she owns that are related to such Loan Party’s business and arose out of the scope of his or her employment or consulting arrangement with such Loan Party, which, if not owned by such Loan Party or their respective Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.3Accounts; Material Agreements. The Accounts are bona fide existing obligations. The material licenses and agreements to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party is in good standing and in full force and effect and no Loan Party is in breach with respect thereto, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material license or other agreement to which a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party has been terminated or is the subject of a material breach by such Loan Party or Subsidiary, except to the extent such circumstances would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.4Litigation and Proceedings. Except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate or as disclosed in writing pursuant to Section 6.2, there are no actions, suits, litigations or proceedings, at law or in equity, pending, or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer, threatened in writing, by or against any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, officers or directors involving more than, individually or in the aggregate for all related proceedings, $500,000 or in which any adverse decision has had or would reasonably be expected to have any Material Adverse Effect.
5.5Financial Statements; Financial Condition. All consolidated and consolidating, if applicable, financial statements for the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries delivered to Administrative Agent fairly present in all material respects the consolidated and consolidating, if applicable, financial condition and results of operations (except for the absence of footnotes, and subject to normal quarter-end and year-end adjustments) of the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries as of the respective dates and for the respective periods then ended, and there are no material liabilities (including any contingent liabilities) which are not reflected in such financial statements which would be required to be reflected therein pursuant to GAAP. There has not been any material deterioration in the consolidated and consolidating financial condition of the Loan Parties and each of its Subsidiaries or the Collateral, on a consolidated basis, since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Administrative Agent.
12


5.6Solvency. The fair salable value of the assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, exceeds the fair value of liabilities of the Loan Parties’ and their Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; no Loan Party is left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and each Loan Party is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
5.7Consents; Approvals. Each Loan Party has obtained all third party consents, approvals, waivers, made all declarations or filings with, given all notices to, and obtained all consents, licenses, permits or other approvals from all Governmental Authorities that are necessary (i) to enter into the Loan Documents and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, and (ii) to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted, except where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
5.8Subsidiaries; Investments. No Loan Party has any Subsidiaries, except as noted on the Perfection Certificate or as disclosed to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.11 below. No Loan Party owns any stock, partnership, or other ownership interest or other Equity Interests except for Permitted Investments.
5.9Tax Returns and Payments. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries have timely filed all required foreign, federal, state and local tax returns (or appropriate extensions therefor), except tax returns as to which a failure to file would not reasonably be expected to result in taxes or penalties in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), and such Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries has timely paid all federal, state and material foreign and local Taxes owed by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, as applicable, except (a) to the extent such Taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor, or (b) if such Taxes do not, individually or in the aggregate, exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) except to the extent that such Taxes are being contested in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. No Loan Party is aware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any prior tax years of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries which could result in a material amount of additional taxes becoming due and payable by such Loan Party or Subsidiary.
5.10Shares. To the extent applicable, such Loan Party has full power and authority to create a first lien on the Shares and no disability or contractual obligation exists that would prohibit such Loan Party from pledging the Shares pursuant to this Agreement. There are no subscriptions, warrants, rights of first refusal or other restrictions on transfer relative to, or options exercisable with respect to the Shares. The Shares have been and will be duly authorized and validly issued, and, to the extent applicable, are fully paid and non-assessable. The Shares are not the subject of any present or threatened (in writing) suit, action, arbitration, administrative or other proceeding, and such Loan Party knows of no reasonable grounds for the institution of any such proceedings.

None of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement have been (or will be) used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might cause any of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.
(c)No Loan Party has taken or permitted to be taken any action which might cause any Loan Document to which it is a party to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board. Neither the making of the Loans hereunder nor Borrowers’ use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.

(e)Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Reportable Event or Prohibited Transaction, as defined in ERISA has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, and no Loan Party has failed to meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA. No Loan Party has violated any applicable environmental laws in any material respect, maintains any properties or assets which have been designated in any manner pursuant to any environmental protection statute as a hazardous materials disposal site, or has received any notice, summons, citation or directive from the Environmental Protection Agency or any other similar Governmental Authority.

The foregoing appointments of Collateral Trustee and Administrative Agent as each Loan Party’s attorney in fact, and all of Collateral Trustee’s rights and powers are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or is known to exist and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been fully repaid, in cash, and otherwise fully performed and all commitments to make Loans hereunder have been terminated.
9.4Protective Payments. If a Loan Party 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 such Loan Party is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which may be required to preserve the Collateral, Collateral Trustee may (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent) obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Collateral Trustee are Secured Party Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Collateral Trustee will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower Representative with notice of Collateral Trustee obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Collateral Trustee are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Collateral Trustee’s waiver of any Event of Default.
9.5Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Trustee shall have the right to apply in any order any funds in its possession, whether payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or
25


otherwise, to the Obligations, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties. Collateral Trustee shall pay any surplus to Borrowers by credit to the Deposit Account designated by Borrowers or as directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Borrowers shall remain liable to Collateral Trustee and Lenders for any deficiency. If Collateral Trustee, as directed by Administrative Agent in Administrative Agent’s good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly, enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Collateral Trustee may, at the direction of Administrative Agent, either reduce the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or defer the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Collateral Trustee of cash or immediately available funds therefor.
9.6Collateral Trustee’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Collateral Trustee accords treatment to the Collateral in its possession substantially equal to the treatment which it accords its own property, Collateral Trustee 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, except to the extent that any of the foregoing have been found by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be the result of Collateral Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Loan Parties bear all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
9.7No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Any failure by any Secured Party at any time or times, to require strict performance by each Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of any Secured Party thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Collateral Trustee has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Any Secured Party’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude any Secured Party from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and any waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Any delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
9.8Demand Waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by appliable law, each Loan Party waives presentment, demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments or chattel paper.
9.9Shares. Each Loan Party recognizes that Collateral Trustee may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Shares, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in federal securities laws and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Collateral Trustee shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Shares for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under federal securities laws or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Collateral Trustee (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement) may, with two Business Days prior notice to Borrower Representative (unless such Event of Default is an Event of Default specified in Section 8.4 or 8.5, in which case no such notice need be given), in addition to all rights and remedies available under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, or any other ownership or consensual rights (including any dividend or distribution rights) in respect of the Shares constituting Collateral, but under no circumstances is Collateral Trustee obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Collateral Trustee (acting at the direction of Administrative Agent subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement) duly exercises its right to vote any of such Shares, each Loan Party hereby appoints Collateral Trustee, as such Loan Party’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Shares as directed by Administrative Agent (subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement). The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

11.CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
Except as otherwise expressly provided in any of the Loan Documents, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each Loan Party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in New York County, City of New York, New York; provided, however, that nothing in this
28


Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Collateral Trustee 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 Administrative Agent, Collateral Trustee or any Lender. Each Loan Party expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and each Loan Party 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. Each Loan Party 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 addressed to such Loan Party at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by such Loan Party in accordance with, Section 10 and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of the applicable Loan Party’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid. Each Loan Party hereby expressly waives any claim to assert that the laws of any other jurisdiction govern this Agreement.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANYWHERE ELSE, EACH LOAN PARTY AGREES THAT IT SHALL NOT SEEK FROM ANY SECURED PARTY UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING ANY THEORY IN TORTS), ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
This Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
12.GENERAL PROVISIONS
12.1Termination Prior to Term Loan Maturity Date; Survival; Release of Collateral. All covenants, representations and warranties and grants of security interests made in this Agreement continue in full force until the Termination Date. So long as Borrowers have satisfied the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or is known to exist and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), this Agreement and any remaining commitments to extend credit may be terminated prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date by Borrowers, by written notice of termination to Lenders. Those obligations that are expressly specified in this Agreement as surviving this Agreement’s termination shall continue to survive notwithstanding this Agreement’s termination. On the Termination Date, Administrative Agent shall direct Collateral Trustee to deliver evidence of the release of Collateral, which release shall occur substantially concurrently with the Termination Date. Collateral Trustee hereby agrees that any Liens granted to Collateral Trustee by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (a) in accordance with this Section 12.1, upon the Termination Date, (b) if such Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by a Loan Party pursuant to any sale, transfer or other disposition that is made in compliance with, and subject to the terms and condition of, this Agreement (in which case Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm such permitted disposition in writing to Collateral Trustee), or (c) if required to effect any sale, transfer or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies by Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 9. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by Secured Parties or any of their Subsidiaries. Upon Borrower’s reasonable request and at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, Administrative Agent shall execute, deliver or authorize such documents as may be reasonably required to evidence any release described above.
12.2Successors and Assigns.
(a)Successors and Assigns Generally. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. No Loan Party may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Lenders’ prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in each Lender’s discretion). Each Lender has the right, without the consent of or notice to Loan Parties, to sell, transfer, assign,
29


negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Lender’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if no Event of Default is in effect, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not assign any interest in the Loan Documents to an entity which is a direct competitor of any Loan Party or a distressed debt fund.
(b)Assignment by Lenders. Each Lender may at any time assign to one or more Affiliates of such Lender or as otherwise permitted by subsection (a) above, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it), subject to any restrictions on such assignment set forth in the other Loan Documents. Each such Lender shall notify Administrative Agent of such assignment and deliver to Administrative Agent a copy of any assignment and assumption agreement entered into in connection thereto. Each 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. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any pledge or assignment of all or a portion of the rights, or a security interest in such rights, of K2 HealthVentures LLC as a Lender that is made to an Affiliate of K2 HealthVentures LLC shall only be made to K2 HealthVentures Equity Trust LLC.
(c)Register; Participant Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Loan Parties, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Term Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Loan Parties, any Lender and Collateral Trustee at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Loan Parties, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
12.3Indemnification. Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold each Secured Party and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Lender (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict liability in tort) (collectively, “Claims”) claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (ii) all losses or reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Secured Party Expenses) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by such Indemnified Person as a result of, following from, consequential to, or arising from transactions among Secured Parties and Loan Parties (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses to the extent directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 12.3 shall survive until all statutes of limitation with respect to the Claims, losses, and expenses for which indemnity is given shall have run. This Section 12.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
12.4Borrower Liability. If any Person is joined to this Agreement as a Borrower, the following provisions shall apply: Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Loans made hereunder, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Loan, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all 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 Collateral Trustee to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other
30


person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Collateral Trustee may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (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 Collateral Trustee 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 such 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 a 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 Lenders and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
12.5Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.
12.6Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
12.7Correction of Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties; provided that, the Administrative Agent provide Borrowers with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such correction. In the event of any objection by Borrowers to such correction, such correction shall be made solely by an amendment signed by Administrative Agent and Borrowers.
12.8Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration. No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be effective except, pursuant to an agreement in writing by the parties thereto, and in case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement in writing entered into by Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and Collateral Trustee, provided that Collateral Trustee’s approval shall not be required for any amendment or supplement that has the effect solely of (i) adding or maintaining Collateral, securing additional Obligations that are otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be secured by the Collateral or preserving, perfecting or establishing the priority of the Liens thereon or the rights of Collateral Trustee therein; (ii) curing any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (iii) providing for the assumption of a Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Obligations under any Loan Document in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of a Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable; (iv) making any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to Administrative Agent, any Lender or Collateral Trustee or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document of Collateral Trustee; or (v) to the extent the Collateral Trust Agreement provides that Collateral Trustee’s approval is not required. It is agreed that any change to (i) the definition of “Designated Holder”, (ii) the rights of a Designated Holder, or (iii) the final sentence of Section 12.2(b) (and any change to this Agreement that would modify the consent required pursuant to this sentence) shall require the consent of Collateral Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document. Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. 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 among the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.
12.9Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Documents. This Agreement and any other Loan Documents, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof, 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. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed
31


signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of any Loan Document by electronic means including by email delivery of a “.pdf” format data file shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of such Loan Document.
12.10Confidentiality; Publicity.
(a)In handling any confidential information of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries, Administrative Agent, Collateral Trustee and each Lender agree to hold in confidence and not disclose such confidential information except as expressly provided herein, and shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans (provided, however, that any prospective transferee or purchaser shall have entered into an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those in this Section 12.10 or shall otherwise by subject to bound by confidentiality terms no less restrictive than those of this Section 12.10); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order and in connection with reporting obligations applicable to such Secured Party, including pursuant to the Exchange Act, (d) to such Secured Party’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with any examination or audit; (e) as such Secured Party considers appropriate in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to the Obligations; and (f) to third-party service providers of such Secured Party so long as such service providers are bound by confidentiality terms not more permissive than the terms hereof. Confidential information does not include information that is either: (i) in the public domain or in any Secured Party’s possession when disclosed to such Secured Party, or becomes part of the public domain (other than as a result of its disclosure by such Secured Party in violation of this Agreement) after disclosure to such Secured Party, or (ii) disclosed to such Secured Party by a third party, if such Secured Party does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(b)No party hereto shall publicize or use another party’s name or logo, or hyperlink to such other parties’ website, describe the relationship of the parties or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, in written and oral presentations, advertising, promotional and marketing materials, client lists, public relations materials or on its web site (together, the “Publicity Materials”) without prior written notice to the party that is the subject of the proposed Publicity Materials (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, reports, proxy statements and other materials filed by Borrower Representative with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise as required by applicable law), together with a draft (or, if Publicity Materials are not proposed to be delivered in written form, an outline of the content to be included) so as to provide such subject party a reasonable opportunity to review prior to publication, and each party agrees, in connection with any Publicity Materials proposed by such party to reasonably consider requested changes or corrections requested by the party that is the subject of such Publicity Materials in good faith, and upon request, to provide the final form prior to publication or other dissemination.
12.11Borrower Representative. Each of the Borrowers hereby appoints Borrower Representative to act as its exclusive agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, with respect to all matters related to the borrowing and repayment of any Loan). Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that (a) Borrower Representative may execute such documents on behalf of any Borrower as Borrower Representative deems appropriate in its sole discretion and each Borrower shall be bound by and obligated by all of the terms of any such document executed by Borrower Representative on its behalf, (b) any notice or other communication delivered hereunder to Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Borrower and (c) any Secured Party shall accept (and shall be permitted to rely on) any document or agreement executed by Borrower Representative on behalf of Borrowers (or any of them). Each Borrower must act through Borrower Representative for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent any provision in this Agreement requires any Borrower to interact in any manner with any Secured Party such Borrower shall do so through Borrower Representative.
12.12Captions. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
32


12.13Construction of Agreement. The parties mutually acknowledge that they and their attorneys have participated in the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. In cases of uncertainty this Agreement shall be construed without regard to which of the parties caused the uncertainty to exist.
12.14Relationship. The relationship of the parties to this Agreement is determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement. The parties do not intend to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship with duties or incidents different from those of parties to an arm’s-length contract.
12.15Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to: (a) confer any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the express parties to it and their respective permitted successors and assigns; (b) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any person not an express party to this Agreement; or (c) give any person not an express party to this Agreement any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.
12.16Appointment of Collateral Trustee.
(a)Each Lender hereby appoints Collateral Trustee to act on behalf of Secured Parties as collateral trustee under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to hold and enforce any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, all in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Section 12.16 are solely for the benefit of Collateral Trustee, Administrative Agent and Lenders and no Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. Collateral Trustee shall not have any duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably related thereto. The duties of Collateral Trustee shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Collateral Trustee shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Collateral Trustee may resign or be removed or replaced, and a successor Collateral Trustee may be appointed in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Collateral Trust Agreement.
(b)Each Lender hereby agrees that upon receipt of instruction from Administrative Agent, Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to take or refrain from taking such action, and shall be entitled to take all such actions set forth in the Collateral Trust Agreement.
(c)Neither Collateral Trustee nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for damages solely caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, Collateral Trustee: (i) may consult with legal counsel, independent chartered accountants and other experts and consultants selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, experts or consultants; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Loan Party or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by email, telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
12.17Appointment of Administrative Agent.
(a)Each Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to act on behalf of Lenders as administrative agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 12.17 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and no Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this
33


Agreement, Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Loan Party or any other Person. Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably related thereto. The duties of Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Administrative Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender.
(b)If Administrative Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders, and Administrative Agent shall incur no liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document for any reason. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent’s acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Lenders.
(c)Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective related parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 12.17 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the related parties of such Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent. No Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
(d)Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for damages solely caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel, independent chartered accountants and other experts and consultants selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, experts or consultants; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Loan Party or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by email, telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
(e)With respect to its Commitments and Loans hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity (to the extent it holds any Obligations owing to Lenders or Commitments hereunder). Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of their Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Affiliate, all as if Administrative Agent was not Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any Loan Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.
(f)Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, made its own credit and financial analysis of the Loan Parties and its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
34


reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest.
(g)Each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Loan Parties and without limiting the obligations of Loan Parties hereunder), ratably according to its respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent in connection therewith; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented counsel fees) incurred by Administrative Agent 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 and each other Loan Document, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Loan Parties.
(h)Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders, Collateral Trustee and Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that may be Collateral Trustee. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender or Collateral Trustee, if a Lender or Collateral Trustee is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution has combined capital of at least $300,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, by the 30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Administrative Agent, such resignation shall become effective and Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent or the effective date of the resigning Administrative Agent’s resignation, the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that any indemnity, expense reimbursement or other rights in favor of such resigning Administrative Agent shall continue. After any resigning Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 12.17 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as K2 HealthVentures LLC is a Lender pursuant to this Agreement, K2 HealthVentures LLC shall not resign as Administrative Agent unless a successor Administrative Agent is appointed concurrently with such resignation, which successor Administrative Agent shall have the wherewithal to perform, and shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(i)In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each holder of any Obligation is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Loan Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Loan Party or such Subsidiary) and any other properties or assets any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party against and on
35


account of any of the Obligations which are not paid when due. Any Lender or holder of any Obligation exercising a right to set off or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement relating to the priority of the repayment of the Obligations shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so set off or otherwise received with each other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement relating to the priority of the repayment of the Obligations. Each Loan Party agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (i) any Lender or holder may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and may sell participations in such amount so set off to other Lenders and holders and (ii) any Lender or holders so purchasing a participation in the Loans made or other Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of set-off, bankers’ Lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Loans and the other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the set-off amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from Lender that has exercised the right of set-off, the purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest.
(j)Nothing in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. To the extent that Administrative Agent advances funds to Borrowers on behalf of any Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such advance is made, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance until reimbursed by the applicable Lender.
(k)If Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers and such related payment is not received thereby, then Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
(l)If Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received thereby under this Agreement shall be returned to Borrowers or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Administrative Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Administrative Agent is required to pay to Borrowers or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
(m)Administrative Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any written notice of Event of Default received by Administrative Agent from, or delivered by Administrative Agent to, any Loan Party; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable solely to Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(n)Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender and with Administrative Agent that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of set-off) without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Administrative Agent at the request of Required Lenders.
13.GUARANTY
13.1Guaranty. Each Guarantor who has executed this Agreement as of the date hereof, together with each Loan Party who accedes to this Agreement as a Guarantor under this Agreement after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6.11 hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees the prompt and
36


complete payment and performance by Borrowers and the other Loan Parties when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing, and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:
(a)each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate, direct, and primary obligation of such Guarantor and shall not be contingent upon any exercise or enforcement of any remedy of any Secured Party or that any Secured Party may have against a Borrower, or any other Guarantor or other Person liable in respect of the Obligations, or all or any portion of the Collateral;
(b)Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may enforce this guaranty notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any Secured Party and any Loan Party with respect to the existence of any Event of Default; and
(c)notwithstanding anything in this Article 13 to the contrary, Collateral Trustee shall be the only party with the right to enforce any of the Collateral or take other security.
13.2Maximum Liability. Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal, state provincial or territorial laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 13.5).
13.3Termination. The guaranty pursuant to this Section 13 shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date.
13.4Unconditional Nature of Guaranty. No payment made by a Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Secured Party from a Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Termination Date.
13.5Right of Contribution
(a)If in connection with any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder any rights of contribution arise in favor of such Guarantor against one or more other Guarantors, such rights of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 13.6. The provisions of this Section 13.5 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor pursuant to the Loan Documents, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.
(b)Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Secured Party against any Loan Party or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Loan Party in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, in each case, until the Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the Termination Date, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied to the Obligations, irrespective of the occurrence or the continuance of any Event of Default.
13.6Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by any Secured Party may be rescinded and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or
37


for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by any Secured Party, and this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, in accordance with their respective terms, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. No Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee pursuant to this Section 13 or any property subject thereto.
13.7Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional; Guarantor Waivers; Guarantor Consent. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon the guaranty contained in this Section 13 or acceptance of this guaranty. The Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this guaranty. All dealings between Borrowers, Guarantors and any Secured Party shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this guaranty. Each Guarantor further waives:
(a)diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any Borrower or any of the other Guarantors with respect to the Obligations;
(b)the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Obligations;
(c)any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority or any other defense of any Borrower, such Guarantor or any other Person;
(d)any defense based upon errors or omissions by any Secured Party in the administration of the Obligations;
(e)any rights to set-offs and counterclaims;
(f)any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by nonjudicial foreclosure) which destroys or impairs the subrogation rights of such Guarantor or the right of such Guarantor to proceed against any Borrower or any other obligor of the Obligations for reimbursement; and
(g)without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law that limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Agreement.
Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 13 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Borrower or any other Person against any Secured Party, or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Loan Party) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under this guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance, (iv) any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Loan Party or any other Person, (v) any amalgamation, merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of any Loan Party or any other Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or all of the assets or Equity Interests of any Loan Party or any other Person, (vi) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Secured Parties’ interests in and rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the right to receive payment of the Obligations, or any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of any Secured Party’s interests in and to any of the Collateral, (vii) any Secured Party’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any Insolvency Proceeding related to any of the Obligations, and (viii) any other guaranty, whether by such Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or
38


liabilities of any Guarantor to Secured Parties. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, Secured Parties may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Loan Party or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto. Any failure by any Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Loan Party or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Loan Party or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
13.8Modifications of Obligations. Each Guarantor further unconditionally consents and agrees that, without notice to or further assent from any Guarantor: (a) the principal amount of the Obligations may be increased or decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of a Borrower or any other Persons under the Loan Documents may be incurred, by one or more amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (b) the time, manner, place or terms of any payment under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, including by an increase or decrease in the interest rate on any Obligation or any fee or other amount payable under such Loan Document, by an amendment, modification or renewal of any Loan Document or otherwise; (c) the time for a Borrower’s (or any other Loan Party’s) performance of or compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as the applicable Secured Party may deem proper; (d) in addition to the Collateral, Secured Parties may take and hold other security (legal or equitable) of any kind, at any time, as collateral for the Obligations, and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such security and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action, and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; (e) Secured Parties may discharge or release, in whole or in part, any other Guarantor or any other Loan Party or other Person liable for the payment and performance of all or any part of the Obligations, and may permit or consent to any such action or any result of such action, and shall not be obligated to demand or enforce payment upon any of the Collateral, nor shall any Secured Party be liable to any Guarantor for any failure to collect or enforce payment or performance of the Obligations from any Person or to realize upon the Collateral, and (f) Secured Parties may request and accept other guaranties of the Obligations and any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of a Borrower or any other Loan Party to any Secured Party and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend any such guaranty and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action; in each case (a) through (f), as the applicable Secured Parties may deem advisable, and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting this Agreement.
13.9Reinstatement. The guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of a Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, a Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
13.10No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. No Secured Party shall by any act (except in writing in accordance with Section 12.8), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default, as applicable. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which any Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
39


13.11Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse Secured Parties for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under this guaranty or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of counsel; provided that no Guarantor shall be liable for indemnification of any expenses under this Section 13.11 to the extent such expenses arise as a result of (i) the acting in gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Secured Party as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) any claims and/or losses with respect to any actions among Secured Parties (other than any claim against the Collateral Trustee in its capacity as such).
