Exhibit 10.26

 

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

 

SILICON VALLEY BANK

 

and

 

PHARSIGHT, INC.

 

 

June 13, 2001

 

 



 

This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated June 13, 2001, between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”) and PHARSIGHT, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), provides the terms on which Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as follows:

 

1.             ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

 

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term “financial statements” includes the notes and schedules. The terms “including” and “includes” always mean “including (or includes) without limitation” in this or any Loan Document. Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13. This Agreement shall be construed to impart upon Bank a duty to act reasonably at all times.

 

2.             LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

2.1          Advances.   Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Advances and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Advances.

 

2.1.1       Revolving Advances.

 

(a)           Bank will make Revolving Advances not exceeding (i) the Committed Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base, whichever is less.    Revolving Advances may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement.   Revolving Advances shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.3(a).

 

(b)           To obtain an Revolving Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or telephone by 3:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day the Advance is to be made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B.   Bank will credit Revolving Advances to Borrower’s deposit account. Bank may make Revolving Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without instructions if the Revolving Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to that reliance.

 

(c)           The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity Date, when all Revolving Advances are immediately payable.

 

2.1.2       Term Loan Advances.

 

(a)           Through June 13, 2002 (the “Term Loan Availability End Date”), Bank will make advances (a “Term Loan Advance” and, collectively, “Term Loan Advances”) not exceeding the Committed Term Loan.

 

(b)           Interest accrues from the date of each Term Loan Advance at the rate set forth in Section 2.3(a) and is payable monthly until the Term Loan Availability End Date.  Term Loan Advances outstanding on the Term Loan Availability End Date are payable in 48 equal monthly installments of principal, plus accrued interest, beginning on the first day of each month following the Term Loan Availability End Date and ending on June 1, 2006 (the “Term Loan Maturity Date”). Term Loan Advances when repaid may not be reborrowed.

 

 

1



 

(c)           To obtain a Term Loan Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time 1 Business Day before the day on which the Term Loan Advance is to be made. The notice in the form of Exhibit B (Payment/Advance Form) must be signed by a Responsible Officer or designee and include a copy of the invoice for the Equipment being financed.

 

2.2          Overadvances.   If Borrower’s Obligations under Section 2.1.1 exceed the lesser of either (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower must immediately pay in cash to Bank the excess.

 

2.3          Interest Rate; Payments.

 

(a)           Interest Rate. Revolving Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of one (1.0) percentage point above the Prime Rate.   Prior to the Term Loan Availability End Date, Term Loan Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of one and one-quarter (1.25) percentage points above the Prime Rate.   Upon and after the Term Loan Availability End Date, the Term Loan Advances shall accrue interest at such floating rate or, if elected by Borrower by written notification to Bank received by Bank at least 30 days prior to the Term Loan Availability End Date, at a fixed per annum rate four and one-half (4.5) percentage points above the Treasury Rate as in effect on the Term Loan Availability End Date. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at five (5.0) percentage points above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

(b)           Payments. Interest is payable on the first day of each month. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts including Account Number 3300027682 for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will notify Borrower when it debits Borrower’s accounts. These debits are not a set-off. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific 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 is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest accrue. The Term Loan Advances may be prepaid in whole or in part, provided that any partial prepayments shall be applied in inverse order of maturity, and provided further that any prepayment made as to the Term Loan Advances after Borrower has elected that the Term Loan Advances shall bear interest at fixed rate shall made together with the applicable Prepayment Fee.

 

2.4          Fees.   Borrower will pay to Bank:

 

(a)           Facility Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee consisting of: (i) 0.5% of the $2,500,000 portion of Committed Revolving Line available at any time with respect to Eligible Accounts which are not Eligible Foreign Accounts (i.e., $12,500); (ii) 0.5% of the Committed Term Loan amount of $3,500,000 (i.e., $17,500), for a total facility fee of $30,000 due on the Closing Date; and

(b)           Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses not exceeding $7,500 plus one-half (0.50) of such fees and expenses in excess of $7,500, for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Closing Date when due.

 

2.5          Additional Costs.   If any law or regulation increases Bank’s costs or reduces its income for any loan, Borrower will pay the increase in cost or reduction in income or additional expense.

 

3.             CONDITIONS OF LOANS

 

3.1          Conditions Precedent to Initial Advance.   Bank’s obligation to make the initial

Advance is subject to the condition precedent that it receive the agreements, documents and fees

it requires, including, without limitation:

4.             CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

 

4.1          Grant of Security Interest.   Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all presently existing and later acquired Collateral to secure all Obligations and performance of each of Borrower’s duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted Liens, any security interest will be a first priority security interest in the Collateral. Bank may place a “hold” on any deposit account pledged as Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted herein does not extend to and the term “Collateral” does not include any Intellectual Property; provided that the Collateral shall include Intellectual Property to the extent, and only to the extent, a security interest in any portion of the Intellectual Property is required in order to permit Bank to hold a perfected security interest in the other Collateral, including, without limitation, Accounts arising from the license, publication or other exploitation of Copyrights or other Intellectual Property; provided, further, that Borrower shall execute and deliver a Negative Pledge Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, with respect to the Intellectual Property, and upon any breach thereof, the Collateral shall be deemed to include, retroactively from the Closing Date, the Intellectual Property. If the Agreement is terminated, Bank’s lien and security interest in the Collateral will continue until Borrower fully satisfies its Obligations.

Such cash collateral shall be released by Bank if: (a) Bank shall have waived its other rights and remedies as to such existing financial covenant breach or breaches and no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (b) Bank shall have determined that Borrower is no longer in violation of any of the financial covenants in Section 6.7 previously breached.

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

 

(b)           Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

 

(c)           Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable;

 

(d)           Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral.   Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates.    Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;

 

(e)           Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

 

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

 

 

10



 

(g)           dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.

 

9.2          Power of Attorney.   When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to:  (i) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits.   Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred.   Bank’s appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Advances terminates.

 

9.3          Accounts Collection.   When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

 

9.4          Bank Expenses.   If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent.   Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral.   No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.5          Bank’s Liability for Collateral.   If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices, it is not liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person.   Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

9.6          Remedies Cumulative.   Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given.

 

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

The sum of the present value calculations is the “Mark to Market Amount.” Third, the Bank will subtract the Mark to Market Amount from the Current Market Rate Amount.

Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the “Broker”)

555 California Street, Suite 2200

San Francisco, CA   94104

 

Re: Notice of Pledge and Security

 

Gentlemen:

 

Please be advised that the undersigned, PharSight Corporation (“Pledgor”), has pledged a security interest in Account No. 14-78895 (the “Account”) held by Broker, as securities intermediary, and in all of the securities, proceeds, cash or other assets now or hereafter held in the Account ( collectively, the “Collateral”), to Silicon Valley Bank (“Pledgee”) pursuant to the terms and provisions of a certain Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated June 13, 2001 ...

 

Broker, Pledgor and Pledgee, by signing this letter, hereby agree as follows:

 

a) The Account shall be retitled “Pharsight Corporation- Pledgor Silicon Valley Bank - Pledgee”;

 

b ) Pledgee has a security interest in the Collateral and is authorized to instruct the Broker with regard to the Account;

 

c) Broker is hereby notified of Pledgee’s security interest, and agrees to comply with all instructions and entitlement orders of Pledgee with regard to the Account.  Broker shall not comply with instructions and entitlement orders with respect to the Collateral or the Account that are originated by the Pledgor except as described in Paragraph D below. Broker represents that it has not previously been notified of any other assignment or interest in the Collateral or the Account and has no knowledge of any assignment or interest in the Collateral or the Account.  Broker is also hereby authorized and agrees to send duplicate copies of any and all statements and confirmations relating to the Account directly to the Pledgee at the address indicated below, or to such other address as Pledgee may designate in writing. This pledge will remain in full force and effect until Pledgee notifies Broker in writing to the contrary;

 

d) Pledgee hereby instructs Broker that until further instruction in writing from an Authorized Officer of Pledgee (as defined below) that Pledgee is assuming exclusive control over the Account (“Notice of Exclusive Control”), the Broker shall comply with directions of Pledgor with respect to any transactions, including withdrawals, in the Account; provided however, that Broker will not distribute to Pledgor any Collateral in the Account and will not comply with any notification or entitlement order that would require Broker to make a free delivery of the

 



 

Collateral to Pledgor or any other third party.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, upon receipt of a Notice of Exclusive Control (it being understood that Broker shall have no duty or obligation whatsoever to investigate or determine whether the Notice of Exclusive Control was rightfully or legally issued), Broker shall only follow the directions and instructions of Pledgee with regard to the Account.  In that case, if Pledgee so requests, Broker will proceed to liquidate the assets of the Account in accordance with Pledgee’s instructions and to deliver the proceeds to Pledgee.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Authorized Officer of Pledgee” shall refer to anyone of the following individuals: [Names of Authorized Officers]. If Pledgee finds it necessary to designate a replacement for any of the designated Authorized Officers of Pledgee, written notice of replacement shall be given to Broker, which notice shall be signed by the President, an Executive Vice President, a Senior Vice President, or such other officer of Pledgee as Broker may approve.  However, Broker shall be entitled to rely on any notice it receives from someone whom it reasonably believes is an Authorized Officer of Pledgee;

 

e) Broker shall have no obligation to monitor the Account for any purpose in connection with the pledge granted hereunder. The Pledgee accepts and acknowledges full responsibility for reviewing daily confirmations and monthly statements to ensure that it is adequately secured;

 

f) Pledgor and Pledgee hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Broker, its affiliates, officers, and employees from and against any and all claims, causes of actions, liabilities, lawsuits, demands, and/or damages, including, without limitation. any and all court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, that might result by reason of the actions of Broker pursuant to this Agreement except those claims arising from Broker’s gross negligence or willfu1 misconduct.  Broker shall not be responsible for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses incurred by Pledgor or Pledgee, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of the bad faith, gross negligence, or criminal acts or omissions on the part of Broker;

 

g) Broker may terminate this Agreement at any timeby canceling the Account and transferring all funds and securities in the Account to Pledgee;

 

h) As of the date hereof, the Collateral has not been paid to or withdrawn by the Pledgor; Broker is not in receipt of any notice of withdrawal or redemption with regard to the Collateral or notice not to renew the Account, and Broker has not given any notice that the Account will not be renewed or extended, as the case may be;

 

i) Broker’s records indicate that the value of the Collateral, as of the date hereof, is approximately                                  ;

 

j) Broker subordinates any right of offset Broker may now or hereafter have against the Collateral for any indebtedness now or hereafter owing to Broker by the Pledgors to the security interest of Pledgee; provided that Broker shall continue to have a first perfected security interest in the Collateral with respect to any charges incurred in connection with the operation of the Account, including, but not limited to, fees, commissions and any costs related to unsettled securities transactions.

k) This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New York, excluding its conflict of law rules.  The parties hereby agree that (i) the “securities intermediary’s jurisdiction” with respect to the Account and the Collateral is New York and (ii) the parties shall not agree with any other person that such securities intermediary’s jurisdiction is any jurisdiction other than New York.

 

 

Very truly yours,

If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations when due;

9.1          Rights and Remedies.

 

When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:

 

(a)           Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 of the Domestic Loan Documents occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);

 

(b)           Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Exim Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

 

(c)           Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable;

 

(d)           Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral.   Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates.   Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;

 

 

6



 

(e)           Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

 

(f)            Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral; and

 

(g)           Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.

 

9.2          Power of Attorney.

 

Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank’s appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Advances terminates.

 

9.3          Accounts Collection.

 

When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

 

9.4          Bank Expenses.

 

If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.5          Bank’s Liability for Collateral.

 

If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

9.6          Remedies Cumulative.

 

Bank’s rights and remedies under this Exim Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given.

 

 

7



 

9.7          Demand Waiver.

 

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

 

9.8          Exim Direction.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Exim Bank shall have right to (i) direct Bank to exercise the remedies specified in Section 9.1 and (ii) request that Bank accelerate the maturity of any other loans to Borrower.

 

9.9          Exim Notification.

 

Bank has the right to immediately notify Exim Bank in writing if it has knowledge of any of the following events: (1) any failure to pay any amount due under this Exim Agreement; (2) the Borrowing Base is less than the sum of the outstanding Credit Extensions; (3) any failure to pay when due any amount payable to Bank under any Loan owing by Borrower to Bank; (4) the filing of an action for debtor’s relief by, against or on behalf of Borrower; (5) any threatened or pending material litigation against Borrower, or any dispute involving Borrower.

 

If Bank sends a notice to Exim Bank, Bank has the right to send Exim Bank a written report on the status of events covered by the notice every 30 days after the date of the original notification, until Bank files a claim with Exim Bank or the defaults have been cured (but no Advances may be required during the cure period unless Exim Bank gives its written approval). If directed by Exim Bank, Bank will have the right to exercise any rights it may have against the Borrower to demand the immediate repayment of all amount outstandings under the Exim Loan Documents.

2.08  Continued Security Interest.  Borrower shall not change (a) its name or identity in any manner, (b) the location of its principal place of business, (c) the location of any of the Collateral or (d) the location of any of the books or records related to the Collateral, in each instance without giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to Lender and taking all actions deemed necessary or appropriate by Lender to continuously protect and perfect Lender’s Liens upon the Collateral.

2.09  Inspection of Collateral.  Borrower shall permit the representatives of Lender and Ex-Im Bank to make at any time during normal business hours inspections of the Collateral and of Borrower’s facilities, activities, and books and records, and shall cause its officers and employees to give full cooperation and assistance in connection therewith.

(f)            any default or event of default under the Loan Documents;

(g)           any failure to comply with any terms of the Loan Authorization Agreement;

(h)           any material provision of any Loan Document or this Agreement for any reason ceases to be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms;

2.12  Insurance. Borrower will at all times carry property, liability and other insurance, with insurers acceptable to Lender, in such form and amounts, and with such deductibles and other provisions, as Lender shall require, and Borrower will provide evidence of such insurance to Lender, so that Lender is satisfied that such insurance is, at all times, in full force and effect.  Each property insurance policy shall name Lender as loss payee and shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement in form acceptable to Lender and each liability insurance policy shall name Lender as an additional insured.  All policies of insurance shall provide that they may not be cancelled or changed without at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Lender and shall otherwise be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.  Borrower will promptly deliver to Lender copies of all reports made to insurance companies.

2.13  Taxes. Borrower has timely filed all tax returns and reports required by applicable law, has timely paid all applicable taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owing by Borrower and will timely pay all such items in the future as they became due and payable.  Borrower may, however, defer payment of any contested taxes; provided, that Borrower (a) in good faith contests Borrower’s obligation to pay such taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted; (b) notifies Lender in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings; (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to keep the contested taxes from becoming a Lien upon any of the Collateral; and (d) maintains adequate reserves therefor in conformity with GAAP.

2.16  Reborrowings and Repayment Terms.  (a)  If the Loan Facility is a Revolving Loan Facility, provided that Borrower is not in default under any of the Loan Documents, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Loan Facility until the close of business on the Final Disbursement Date.  Unless the Revolving Loan Facility is renewed or extended by Lender with the consent of Ex-Im Bank, Borrower shall pay in full the outstanding Loan Facility Obligations and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon no later than the first Business Day after the Final Disbursement Date.

(b)           If the Loan Facility is a Transaction Specific Loan Facility, Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days of the receipt thereof, pay to Lender (for application against the outstanding Loan Facility Obligations and accrued and unpaid interest thereon) all checks, drafts, cash and

other remittances it may receive in payment or on account of the Export-Related Accounts Receivable or any other Collateral, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement of Borrower where necessary).  Pending such deposit, Borrower shall hold such amounts in trust for Lender separate and apart and shall not commingle any such items of payment with any of its other funds or property.

2.18  Munitions List.  If any of the Items are articles, services, or related technical data that are listed on the United States Munitions List (part 121 of title 22 of the Code of Federal Regulations), Borrower shall send a written notice promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days, of Borrower learning thereof to Lender describing the Items(s) and the corresponding invoice amount.

2.19  Suspension and Debarment, etc.  On the date of this Agreement neither Borrower nor its Principals are (a) debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment with a final determination still pending, declared ineligible or voluntarily excluded (as such terms are defined under any of the Debarment Regulations referred to below) from participating in procurement or nonprocurement transactions with any United States federal government department or agency pursuant to any of the Debarment Regulations or (b) indicted, convicted or had a civil judgment rendered against Borrower or any of its Principals for any of the offenses listed in any of the Debarment Regulations.  Unless authorized by Ex-Im Bank, Borrower will not knowingly enter into any transactions in connection with the Items with any person who is debarred, suspended, declared ineligible or voluntarily excluded from participation in procurement or nonprocurement transactions with any United States federal government department or agency pursuant to any of the Debarment Regulations.  Borrower will provide immediate written notice to Lender if at any time it learns that the certification set forth in this Section 2.19 was erroneous when made or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.
