Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Cirond Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Foreclosure Sale Agreement dated as of April 4, 2006 (the “Agreement”) among Sand Hill Finance, LLC (“Sand Hill”), the Company, ServGate Technologies, Inc. (“ServGate”), and BSGL, LLC (“BSGL”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the personal property assets of ServGate and assume approximately $6,100,000 of ServGate’s liabilities from Sand Hill and BSGL, who were secured senior lenders holding those assets as collateral on existing loans that were in default. The assets acquired consisted of primarily of intellectual property. The Company also issued 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to BSGL in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. The acquisition was made pursuant to a private foreclosure sale under Section 9610 of the California Uniform Commercial Code. A copy of the Agreement is included as Exhibit 2.1 to this filing.

 

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

 

On April 10, 2006, the Company completed its acquisition of the assets and the assumption of the specified liabilities of ServGate pursuant to the terms of the Agreement described in Item 1.01 above. ServGate had developed unified threat management software and had more than 100 employees in the United States, Canada, and China.

 

While the Company purchased the intellectual property rights (patents, domain names, and product trade marks) to the ServGate products, it did not acquire ServGate’s distributor and importer agreements or sales force. Roughly half of ServGate’s employees are likely to continue with the Company.

 

Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

In connection with the acquisition of the assets described above, the Company obtained a secured bridge loan for $1,000,000 from Sand Hill and executed promissory notes to Sand Hill and BSGL in the principal amounts of $2,100,000 and $2,500,000, respectively. All of these obligations are secured by a security interest in the purchased assets. The security interest of the bridge lender, up to a principal amount of $1,000,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement), has first priority, the security interest of Sand Hill up to a principal amount of $2,100,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement) is second, and the security interest of BSGL up to a principal amount of $2,500,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement) is third.

 

The $1,000,000 bridge loan accrues interest at 10% per annum, requires quarterly interest payments beginning July 1, 2006, and is due October 1, 2006. If the Company should receive at least $3,000,000 of proceeds from the sale of its equity securities by July 3, 2006, then the Company shall pay Sand Hill $500,000 and may elect to extend the maturity date of the loan to April 1, 2007. If revenues generated by the Company through June 30, 2006 are less than $1,500,000, then Sand Hill will have the option to require payment of the loan in full on the day that is 90 days after June 30, 2006. Proceeds of the bridge loans were used for payments to Sand

Hill to reduce the $2,100,000 principal balance of its note and accrued liabilities that the Company had assumed.

 

The note for $2,100,000 made payable to Sand Hill is due December 31, 2006, accrues interest at 18% per annum, and requires monthly interest payments, as well as mandatory principal payments as follows: $150,000 by April 7, 2006, $150,000 by April 30, 2006, $500,000 by June 30, 2006, $500,000 by September 30, 2006, 25% of the proceeds from an anticipated OEM agreement, and 15% of the proceeds of any sale of equity over $3,000,000.

 

The note for $2,500,000 made payable to BSGL is due December 31, 2007, accrues interest at the prime rate plus 2% per annum and requires mandatory principal payments as follows: 10% of the net proceeds of the PIPE Transaction, $375,000 on December 31, 2006, $375,000 on March 31, 2007, $375,000 on June 30, 2007, $375,000 on September 30, 2007, and the remaining outstanding principal balance on December 31, 2007. If the operating income generated by the ServGate products equals or exceeds $2,000,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, then the note is to be paid by January 31, 2007. Interest is to be paid upon maturity by issuing common stock at a per share price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price (described below) and (ii) the current market price on the maturity date. The PIPE Transaction refers to the proposed issuance by the Company of securities or convertible debt for an aggregate issuance price of not less than $5,000,000.

 

BSGL can convert the principal amount of the note at any time. BSGL must convert the $1,000,000 of the principal amount of the note if the revenue from the ServGate products does not equal or exceed $5,000,000 for the one-year period commencing April 4, 2006. In either case, conversion would be at a per share price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price and (ii) the current market price on the conversion date.

 

Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement described in Item 1.01 above, as part of the Closing the Company issued 9,000,000 shares of its Common Stock to BSGL, LLC. The shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. The issuance of the shares was pursuant to a negotiated transaction not involving a public offering. The certificates representing the shares bear a restrictive legend prohibiting the sale of the shares in violation of the Act.

 

The Company also issued a warrant to purchase stock to Sand Hill, which entitles Sand Hill to purchase, until April 3, 2013 at $0.01 per share, a number of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis, assuming exercise of all stock options, warrants and rights to acquire stock; conversion of all debt or other instruments convertible into equity securities; and conversion of all preferred stock of other equity securities into common stock, with the calculation to be made as of April 4, 2006 after giving effect to the asset acquisition transaction.

EX-2 2 exh2-1_agmt.txt EXH 2-1 FORECLOSURE AGMT EXHIBIT 2.1 FORCLOSURE SALE AGREEMENT MADE APRIL 4, 2006 AMONG SAND HILL FINANCE, LLC, CIROND CORPORATION, SERVGATE TECHNOLOGIES, INC., AND BSGL, LLC FORECLOSURE SALE AGREEMENT This FORECLOSURE SALE AGREEMENT (the "AGREEMENT") is made as of April 4, 2006 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"), among SAND HILL FINANCE, LLC (sometimes referred to as "SHF" or "SELLER"), CIROND CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation ("PURCHASER"), SERVGATE TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), and BSGL, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("BSGL"). RECITALS A. BSGL and Company are parties to an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October 29, 2004, pursuant to which Company issued to BSGL an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,631,636.14. Such loan agreement and note are referred to collectively as the "BSGL LOAN DOCUMENTS" (Schedule E). SHF and Company are parties to a Financing Agreement dated as of September 9, 2005, as amended by a First Amendment to Financing Agreement dated September 29, 2005, a Second Amendment to Financing Agreement dated October 27, 2005, a Third Amendment to Financing Agreement dated December 9, 2005 and a Fourth Amendment to Financing Agreement dated December 23, 2005 (collectively, the "SHF FINANCE DOCUMENTS"). BSGL and SHF are sometimes referred to individually as a "SECURED PARTY" and collectively as the "SECURED PARTIES". As of the date of this Agreement, Company owes SHF $2,100,000.00 and BSGL $3,131,636.14. Company's obligations to BSGL and SHF, respectively, are secured by all of the Company's personal property (the "COLLATERAL"). B. One or more Events of Default have occurred under the BSGL Loan Documents and the SHF Finance Documents, as a consequence of which all amounts owing thereunder are immediately due and payable. C. SHF delivered a Notice of Disposition of Collateral to Company on March 21, 2006. Company has asked SHF to conduct a private foreclosure sale of the Collateral under California Uniform Commercial Code Section 9610. This Agreement sets forth, among other things, the terms of the sale of the Collateral to Purchaser. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 1. GENERAL AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE. 1.1 PURCHASE AND SALE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller will sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will agree to buy from Seller, all of the personal property of the Company, including the assets described in SCHEDULE A hereto (the "TRANSFERRED ASSETS"). This sale is held pursuant to Section 9610 of the California Uniform Commercial Code. The parties acknowledge that such sale is commercially reasonable in all respects, including the method, manner, time, and place, and waive any right to further notices of default or other disposition. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that (i) Seller notified Company on or about March 21, 2006 that an Event of Default occurred under the SHF Finance Documents, and (ii) delivered the Notice of Disposition of Collateral to Company and all other persons required under applicable law, including BSGL, on March 21, 2006. The parties waive any claim that effecting the sale under this Agreement pursuant to such notices is 579271 v3/HN 1 not commercially reasonable. 1.2 CONSIDERATION. As consideration for the sale to Purchaser of the Transferred Assets, Purchaser will (A) pay the amounts described in SCHEDULE B attached hereto, (B) assume the obligations and liabilities of Company described on SCHEDULE B attached hereto (the "ASSUMED LIABILITIES"), as set forth in this Agreement, and (C) issue 9,000,00 shares of Common Stock in accordance with SCHEDULE B attached hereto. 1.3 CLOSING. The closing of the private foreclosure sale conducted by Seller and the purchase and sale of the Transferred Assets (the "CLOSING") shall take place at the offices of the Seller's legal counsel located at 3175 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, CA 94304, at 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time and shall be the latter of March 24, 2006, or the date that the parties have received the documents requested by each as of such date, all of which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to SHF and BSGL, including: (A) an approval of the Closing by Company's Board of Directors and any special committee; (B) Board resolutions of Purchaser, authorizing the transactions described herein; (C) Loan documents for a secured bridge loan (the "BRIDGE LOAN"), by appropriate accredited investor ("BRIDGE LENDER") to Purchaser, and evidence of Purchaser's receipt of the Bridge Loan proceeds; (D) a secured promissory note in the original principal amount of $2,100,000, issued by Purchaser to the order of SHF; (E) a secured promissory note in the original principal amount of $2,500,000, issued by Purchaser to the order of BSGL; and (F) an intercreditor agreement by and among Bridge Lender, SHF, BSGL and Purchaser, which provides for the lien priorities described in Section 4 hereof. (G) This Agreement may be executed by the different parties and dated and signed in separate counterparts and delivered via fax, each counterpart when thus executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute the one and same Agreement. If the Closing does not occur by 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time on April 7, 2006, this Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect. 1.4 DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. Seller shall be under no obligation to cause delivery of control or possession of the Transferred Assets to Purchaser. Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Company, and not Seller, is in possession and control of the Transferred Assets prior to the Closing. 579271 v3/HN 2 2. ASSUMPTION OF OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES. Purchaser assumes all obligations of Company in respect of the Assumed Liabilities as though Purchaser were the original obligor thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) Purchaser has all of the obligations of the "Borrower" under the BSGL Loan Documents and all of the obligations of the "Client" under the SHF Finance Documents, (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in the BSGL Loan Documents and the SHF Finance Documents are true as to Purchaser, (iii) Purchaser will comply with the covenants contained in the BSGL Loan Documents and the SHF Finance Documents (provided that payments shall be made at the times and in the amounts set forth in SCHEDULE B), and (iv) in addition to the Events of Default set forth in any of the BSGL Loan Documents or the SHF Finance Documents, Purchaser's failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under the BSGL Loan Documents and the SHF Finance Documents. 3. COMPANY LIABILITY. Notwithstanding the assumption by Purchaser in Section 2, Company shall remain liable for all obligations under the BSGL Loan Documents and SHF Finance Documents. Company affirms that such obligations remain in full force and effect, and Company has no defense against the satisfaction of all such obligations. Such obligations shall be secured by any property that Company acquires after the Closing Date. 4. SECURITY AGREEMENT. To secure all of its obligations to SHF under the SHF Finance Documents and this Agreement, Purchaser grants SHF a second security interest in all the property of Purchaser other than the assets owned by Purchaser before the date of this Agreement, and all of the proceeds thereof, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including without limitation all accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, documents, equipment, general intangibles (including intellectual property, patents, copyrights, trademarks, and goodwill), goods, fixtures, instruments, inventory, financial assets, investment property, letter of credit rights, money, and all of Debtor's books and records with respect to any of the foregoing, and the computers and equipment containing said books and records; and all products and proceeds thereof, as defined in this Agreement and the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, the "PURCHASER COLLATERAL"). The Purchaser Collateral does not include property that Purchaser owned before entering into this Agreement. To secure all of its obligations to BSGL under the BSGL Loan Documents and this Agreement, Purchaser grants BSGL a third security interest in the Purchaser Collateral. Purchaser authorizes Secured Parties to file one or more financing statements to perfect the security interest granted under this Agreement. Except for the security interest granted to Bridge Lender, SHF and BSGL, Purchaser owns the Purchaser Collateral free and clear of any lien, adverse claim or restriction. Regardless of the order of attachment or perfection of any of those security interests, the security interest of Bridge Lender in the Purchaser Collateral shall be first, up to a principal amount of $1,000,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement) of secured obligations owing to Bridge Lender, the security interest of SHF in the Purchaser Collateral shall be second, up to a principal amount of $2,100,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement) of secured obligations owing to SHF, and the security interest of BSGL in the Purchaser Collateral shall be third, up to a principal amount of $2,500,000 (plus interest and costs of enforcement) of secured obligations owing to BSGL. If any of Bridge Lender, SHF or BSGL is owed more than such amounts, respectively, the security interest securing payment of such surplus amount will be fourth, shared pari pasu among each of Bridge Lender, SHF and BSGL. Without the prior written consent of both Secured Parties, Purchaser shall not encumber or dispose of any interest in the Purchaser Collateral. 579271 v3/HN 3 5. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS. 5.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND THE SECURED PARTIES.

If any legal action, arbitration or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement or any other agreements, instruments or documents executed or delivered in connection herewith, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreements, instruments or documents executed or delivered in connection herewith, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees and other costs incurred in that action, arbitration or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled. 8.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws by a reference proceeding in Santa Clara County, California in accordance with the provisions of Section 638 et seq of the California Code of Civil Procedure. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, "CLAIMS") ASSERTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ONE OR MORE OF THE OTHERS. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve persons other than the parties hereto; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between the parties hereto; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement.

The remaining outstanding principal on December 31, 2007 (the "MATURITY DATE"). 3. VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENT. Debtor shall have the right to prepay, in whole or in part, the principal of this Note, upon five (5) days' prior notice to Creditor. Partial prepayments shall be applied to the principal payment installments in the inverse order of maturity. 4. MANDATORY PREPAYMENT. If the GAAP operating income for the Acquired Business, as defined in Section B.1, equals or exceeds Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, then Debtor shall prepay all of the remaining principal on or prior to January 31, 2007. 5. INTEREST PAYMENT. On the Maturity Date, Debtor shall pay the accrued interest outstanding by issuing Common Stock at a per share price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price, and (ii) the Current Market Price on the Maturity Date. 6. FORM OF PAYMENT. Principal and all other amounts due hereunder (other than interest, to the extent it is to be paid in Common Stock, as provided in Section A.4) are to be paid in lawful money of the United States of America in federal or other immediately available funds. B. AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. 1. AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. If Debtor's GAAP revenue attributable to the business acquired pursuant to the Foreclosure Sale Agreement (the "ACQUIRED BUSINESS") for the one year period commencing as of the date hereof (the "MEASUREMENT PERIOD") does not equal or exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), then, on the tenth (10th) day after Debtor delivers to Creditor the GAAP financial statements (the "AUTOMATIC CONVERSION DATE") for the Measurement Period (the "MEASUREMENT PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS"), Debtor shall convert One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) of the principal outstanding into Common Stock at a per share price equal 2 PA\10452360.4 341814-45 to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price, and (ii) the Current Market Price on the conversion date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the automatic conversion under this Section B shall not occur if an Insolvency Proceeding exists on the Automatic Conversion Date. 2. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. If the Measurement Period Financial Statements show that the GAAP revenue attributable to the Acquired Business is less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), and Creditor disagrees with such Measurement Period Financial Statements, then Creditor shall give written notice to Debtor of such disagreement prior to the Automatic Conversion Date. If such notice is timely given, the automatic conversion shall not occur on the Automatic Conversion Date. Instead, Debtor and Creditor shall jointly retain an accounting firm satisfactory to each of them within five (5) days of such notice being given. If they are unable to agree on such selection within such five (5) day period, Debtor and Creditor shall, within twenty (20) days after expiration of such five (5) day period, each retain a separate accounting firm. If either party fails to retain such a firm during such twenty (20) day period, then the accounting firm retained by the other party shall alone take the actions described below. Such firm or firms shall determine within thirty (30) days of being retained the GAAP revenue of the Acquired Business for the Measurement Period, and deliver its or their opinion in writing to Debtor and Creditor. If two firms are engaged, and they cannot jointly agree upon such revenue amount, then, unless otherwise directed in writing by Debtor and Creditor, such firms, in their sole discretion, shall choose another firm independent of Debtor and Creditor, which firm shall make such determination and render it as promptly as practicable. In either case, the determination so made shall be conclusive and binding on Debtor and Creditor. The fees and expenses for such determination made by such firm or firms shall be paid (i) by Debtor, if the determination is that the GAAP revenue was Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or greater, or (ii) by Creditor, if the determination is that the GAAP revenue was less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). If the determination is that the GAAP revenue was less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), then Debtor shall convert principal as provided in Section B.1, effective as the date of such determination, with the conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price, and (ii) the Current Market Price on the date the conversion would have occurred but for the dispute resolution process in this Section B.2 being employed. 3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. Debtor shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock upon the automatic conversion under this Section B. As to any fractional share of Common Stock which Creditor would otherwise be entitled to purchase from Debtor upon such exercise, Debtor shall purchase from Creditor such fractional share at a price equal to an amount calculated by multiplying such fractional share (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share) by the Current Market Price on the conversion date. Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of Creditor at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise. C. VOLUNTARY CONVERSION RIGHT. 3 PA\10452360.4 341814-45 1. CONVERSION RIGHT. Creditor shall have the right (the "CONVERSION RIGHT"), in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time during the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on the Determination Date, to elect to convert all or any part of the principal outstanding into Common Stock at a per share price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price, and (ii) the Current Market Price on the Conversion Date, as defined in Section C.2. 2. EXERCISE OF CONVERSION RIGHT. To convert any of the principal outstanding into shares of Common Stock, Creditor shall deliver to Debtor a written notice of election to exercise the Conversion Right (the "CONVERSION Notice"). Debtor shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to Creditor a certificate or certificates, registered in Creditor's name, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which Creditor shall be entitled by virtue of such exercise (such shares the "CONVERSION SHARES"). The conversion of the principal outstanding shall be deemed to have been made on the date that Debtor receives the Conversion Notice (the "CONVERSION DATE") and Creditor shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the Conversion Shares as of such date. 3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. Debtor shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Conversion Right. As to any fractional share of Common Stock which Creditor would otherwise be entitled to purchase from Debtor upon such exercise, Debtor shall purchase from Creditor such fractional share at a price equal to an amount calculated by multiplying such fractional share (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share) by the Current Market Price on the Conversion Date. Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of Creditor at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise. 4. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. If Debtor proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend; (b) to offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or series or other rights; (c) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of the Common Stock; or (d) to merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation, or sell, lease, license, or convey all or substantially all of its assets, or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, then, in connection with each such event, Debtor shall give Creditor (1) prompt prior written notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above; and (2) in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above, prompt prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock will be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event). 4 PA\10452360.4 341814-45 D. SECURITY INTEREST. 1. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. Debtor grants to Creditor a security interest in the Collateral, as defined in EXHIBIT A hereto, to secure the payment of all of the indebtedness hereunder (the "SECURED OBLIGATIONS"). 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING COLLATERAL. Debtor represents and warrants to Creditor that Debtor is the true and lawful owner of the Collateral, having good and marketable title thereto, free and clear of any and all Liens other than the Lien and security interest granted to Creditor hereunder and Permitted Liens. Debtor shall not create or assume or permit to exist any such Lien on or against any of the Collateral except as created or permitted by this Note and Permitted Liens, and Debtor shall promptly notify Creditor of any such other Lien against the Collateral and shall defend the Collateral against, and take all such action as may be necessary to remove or discharge, any such Lien. 3. PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Debtor agrees to take all actions requested by Creditor and reasonably necessary to perfect, to continue the perfection of, and to otherwise give notice of, the Lien granted hereunder. E. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. 1. DEFINITION OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "EVENT OF DEFAULT" hereunder: a.

Debtor's failure to perform, keep or observe in any material respect any of its covenants, hereunder; c. The occurrence of any Senior Default; or d.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON EVENT OF DEFAULT. a. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Creditor shall have the right, itself or through any of its agents, with or without notice to Debtor (as provided below), as to any or all of the Collateral, by any available judicial procedure, or without judicial process (provided, however, that it is in compliance with the UCC), to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Creditor shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, either at public or private sale, in lots or in bulk, for cash or for credit, with or without warranties or representations, and upon such terms and conditions, all as Creditor, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, and it shall have the right to purchase at any such sale. Debtor agrees that a notice sent at least fifteen (15) days before the time of any intended public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made shall be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. The proceeds of any such sale, or other Collateral disposition shall be applied, first to the expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, and the like, and to Creditor's reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, and then to the Secured Obligations and to the payment of any other amounts required by applicable law, after which Creditor shall account to Debtor for any surplus proceeds. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands against Creditor arising out of the retention or sale or lease of the Collateral or other exercise of Creditor's rights and remedies with respect thereto. b. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor covenants that it will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take any benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law now or at any time hereafter in force, nor claim, take or insist upon any benefit or advantage of or from any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisal of the Collateral or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made pursuant to any provision herein contained, or the decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction; or, after such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute now or hereafter made or enacted by any state or otherwise to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof, and, to the full extent legally permitted, hereby expressly waives all benefit and advantage of any such law or laws, and covenants that it will not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or otherwise hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted and delegated to Creditor, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such power, law or laws had been made or enacted. c. Any sale, whether under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all Debtor's right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the Collateral sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against Debtor, its successors and assigns, and against all 6 PA\10452360.4 341814-45 persons and entities claiming the Collateral sold or any part thereof under, by or through Debtor, its successors or assigns. d. Debtor appoints Creditor, and any officer, employee or agent of Creditor, with full power of substitution, as Debtor's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, effective as of the date hereof, with power, in its own name or in the name of Debtor, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to endorse any notes, checks, drafts, money orders, or other instruments of payment in respect of the Collateral that may come into Creditor's possession, to sign and endorse any drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts, and other documents relating to Collateral; to pay or discharge taxes or Liens at any time levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; to demand, collect, issue receipt for, compromise, settle and sue for monies due in respect of the Collateral; to notify persons and entities obligated with respect to the Collateral to make payments directly to Creditor; and, generally, to do, at Creditor's option and at Debtor's expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which Creditor deems necessary to protect, preserve and realize upon the Collateral and Creditor's security interest therein to effect the intent of this Note, all as fully and effectually as Debtor might or could do; and Debtor hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney shall be irrevocable as long as any of the Secured Obligations are outstanding. e. All of Creditor's rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, whether established hereby or by any other agreements, instruments or documents or by law shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently. f. If payment of the Secured Obligations is accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, then, upon payment in full of the principal outstanding, the accrued interest shall be converted into Common Stock at a per share price equal to the lesser of (i) the PIPE Transaction Price, and (ii) the Current Market Price on the date the principal is fully paid. F. SUBORDINATION. Creditor's payment and other rights hereunder are subordinated to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. G. OTHER PROVISIONS. 1. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. If Debtor grants registration rights to any of its shareholders during the term hereof, or while Creditor holds any Common Stock acquired upon conversion of principal outstanding or interest accrued hereunder, then Debtor shall also grant Creditor, with respect to such Common Stock, the same registration rights, by making Debtor a party to such registration rights agreement. 2.

If the Shares are not regularly traded in a public market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value in its reasonable good faith judgment. The foregoing notwithstanding, if Holder advises the Board of Directors in writing that Holder disagrees with such determination, then the Company and Holder shall promptly agree upon a reputable investment banking firm to undertake such valuation. If the valuation of such investment banking firm is greater than that determined by the Board of Directors, then all fees and expenses of such investment banking firm shall be paid by the Company. In all other circumstances, such fees and expenses shall be paid by Holder. 1.4 DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATE AND NEW WARRANT. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the Shares not so acquired. 1.5 REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, or 1 579288 v1/HN surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor. ARTICLE 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES. 2.1 STOCK DIVIDENDS, SPLITS, ETC. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its common stock payable in common stock, or other securities, subdivides the outstanding common stock into a greater amount of common stock, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred. 2.2 RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE OR SUBSTITUTION. Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include any automatic conversion of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation upon the closing of a registered public offering of the Company's common stock. Upon the closing of any sale, license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets (including intellectual property) of the Company, or any reorganization, consolidation, or merger of the Company where the holders of the Company's securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction, the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant thereafter shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant Price shall be adjusted accordingly. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price and to the number of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events. 2.3 ADJUSTMENTS FOR COMBINATIONS, ETC. If the outstanding Shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased. 2.4 WEIGHTED AVERAGE ADJUSTMENT. At any time that the Shares are Common Stock, if the Company issues additional common shares (including shares of common stock ultimately issuable upon conversion of a security convertible into common stock) after the date of the Warrant and the consideration per additional common share is less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately before such issue shall be reduced, concurrently with such Issue, to a price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a fraction: (a) the numerator of which is the amount of common stock outstanding immediately before such Issue plus the amount of common stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Company for the additional common shares would purchase at the Warrant Price in effect immediately before such Issue, and (b) the denominator of which is the amount of common stock outstanding immediately before such issue plus the number of such additional common shares. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be increased to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the product resulting from multiplying (i) the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant and (ii) the Warrant Price, in each case as in effect immediately before such adjustment, by (b) the adjusted Warrant Price. 2.5 NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any 2 579288 v1/HN other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder's rights under this Article against impairment. If the Company takes any action affecting the Shares or its common stock other than as described above that adversely affects Holder's rights under this Warrant, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted downward and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted upward in such a manner that the aggregate Warrant Price of this Warrant is unchanged. 2.6 CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Warrant Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Warrant Price. ARTICLE 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. 3.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder as follows: (a) The initial Warrant Price referenced on the first page of this Warrant is not greater than the fair market value of the Shares as of the date of this Warrant.
