Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 21, 2015, Owens Realty Mortgage, Inc. (the “Company”) signed an amendment and restatement of its secured revolving line of credit facility with California Bank and Trust (“CB&T”) (the “Credit Facility”) to increase the maximum potential borrowings from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000 and to add First Bank as an additional Lender.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is dated as of April 16, 2015, and is among the Company, as Borrower, CB&T as administrative agent, swingline lender and lender, and First Bank as an additional lender.   The parties also entered into a related Amended and Restated Advance Formula Agreement, two Master Revolving Notes from the Company (one to CB&T in an amount up to $20,000,000 and the other to First Bank in an amount up to $10,000,000), a restated Security Agreement, and an Addendum to Credit Agreement (Agency Provisions). These agreements collectively amend and restate the prior agreements with CB&T dated February 5, 2014.  Capitalized terms used and not defined herein are further defined in the new Credit Facility agreements.

The maximum borrowings under the revolving Credit Facility is the lesser of $30,000,000 or the amount determined pursuant to a borrowing base calculation described in the Advance Formula Agreement. $6,551,000 is currently outstanding under the existing Credit Facility, and the Company’s current maximum borrowing availability under the borrowing base calculation is $11,655,000 ($5,104,000 of additional borrowings available). At any time that the aggregate principal amount of the total borrowings under the Credit Facility exceeds the maximum permitted pursuant to the borrowing base calculation, the Company must promptly repay an amount equal to such excess. 

Funds under the Credit Facility may be borrowed, repaid and redrawn, and all borrowings mature on February 5, 2016.  Such borrowings will bear interest payable monthly, in arrears, on the first business day of each month, at the prime rate of interest established by CB&T from time-to-time (currently 3.25%) plus one quarter percent (.25%) per annum. Upon a default under the Credit Facility such interest rate increases by 2.00%.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility are to be secured by certain assets of the Company. These collateral assets will include the grant to Lenders of first-priority deeds of trust on certain real property assets and trust deeds of the Company to be identified by the parties from time-to-time and all personal property of the Company, which collateral includes the assets described in the Security Agreement and in other customary collateral agreements that will be entered into by the parties from time-to-time.

The borrowing base calculation outlined in the Advance Formula Agreement equals the sum of: (a) the lesser of (i) 75% of the outstanding principal balance of those mortgage loan promissory notes issued by the Company in the ordinary course of business that qualify as “Eligible Loan Notes” according to criteria outlined in the Advance Formula Agreement and (ii) 50% of the then-current Appraised Value of the real property securing such Eligible Loan Notes; plus (b) 50% of the then-current Appraised Value of the real property owned by the Company that qualifies as “Eligible Owned Real Property” according to criteria outlined in the Advance Formula Agreement.

The Credit Facility contains affirmative, negative, and financial covenants which management believes are customary for loans of this type, including among others: approvals of new leases or lease renewals with respect to Company properties; maintaining the Company’s principal bank accounts with CB&T and maintenance of $2,000,000 of unencumbered liquid assets; maintenance of minimum debt-to-tangible net worth and debt service coverage ratios; limitations on repurchasing or redeeming stock of the Company; limitations on incurrence of liens or additional indebtedness; restrictions against guarantying debt outside the ordinary course of business; restrictions on asset dispositions, capital or corporate restructuring or other transactions outside the ordinary course of business; and restrictions on making certain investments. The amended Credit Facility is also subject to the payment of an additional fee of $25,000 per year, prorated from the effective date of the Note to Maturity, and certain administrative fees.

 
2

 
The Credit Agreement contains certain events of default (subject to specified thresholds and, in certain cases, cure periods), which management believes are customary for loans of this type. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the lenders may, among other things, terminate their obligations to lend under the Credit Facility and require the Company to repay all amounts owed thereunder.

The foregoing descriptions of the Credit Facility agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the two Master Revolving Notes, the Amended and Restated Advance Formula Agreement, the Security Agreement, and the Addendum to Credit Agreement (Agency Provisions) attached as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.6, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. A copy of a press release announcing the amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

(l)
the occurrence or existence of any “Default” or “Event of Default”, as the case may be, set forth in any other Loan Document.

SECTION 7                      REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of any Event of Default, Agent may, with or without notice to Borrower, declare all outstanding Indebtedness to be due and payable, whereupon all such Indebtedness then outstanding shall immediately become due and payable, without further notice or demand, and any commitment or obligation, if any, on the part of Agent and Lenders to make or extend Loans shall immediately terminate. Further, upon the occurrence or at any time during the continuance or existence of any Event of Default hereunder, Agent may collect, deal with and dispose of all or any part of any Collateral in any manner permitted or authorized by the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law (including public or private sale), and after deducting expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), Agent may apply the proceeds thereof in part or full payment of any of the Indebtedness, whether due or not, in any manner or order Agent elects (subject to the terms of this Agreement).  In addition to the foregoing, upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of any Event of Default hereunder, Agent may exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it as a result thereof, whether under this Agreement or other Loan Documents, at law (including, without limit, the Uniform Commercial Code), or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any other Loan Document, Lenders shall not be obligated to make or extend any Loans or advances to any Borrower(s) during the existence of any Default or Event of Default.

SECTION 8                      APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS FOLLOWING EVENT OF DEFAULT TO PAYMENT OF AGENT FEES AND EXPENSES.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, following the occurrence of an Event of Default and the termination of Lenders’ obligation to make disbursements, the acceleration of the indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lenders under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the exercise of any remedy in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, Agent shall apply the proceeds of the collateral, together with any offsets, voluntary payments by Borrower or others and any other sums received or collected in respect of such indebtedness first, to pay all incurred and unpaid fees and expenses (including attorney’s fees) of Agent under the Loan Documents and any protective advances made by Agent with respect to the collateral under or pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, next to the indebtedness owed to Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares and then, if there is any excess, to Borrower.

SECTION 9                      DEMAND BASIS LOANS. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event that any of the Indebtedness shall at any time be on a demand basis, Borrower’s compliance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the absence of any Event of Default hereunder, shall not, in any way whatsoever, limit, restrict or otherwise affect or impair Agent’s right or ability to make demand for payment of any or all of such Indebtedness which may be on a demand basis at any such time, in Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, with or without reason or cause, and the existence of any Event of Default hereunder shall not be the sole reason or basis for enabling Agent to make demand for payment of all or any part of such Indebtedness.

 
14

 
SECTION 10                    WAIVERS OF DEFAULTS; NO FORBEARANCE.  No Event of Default shall be waived by Agent or Lenders except in writing and a waiver of any Event of Default shall not be a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. No forbearance on the part of the Agent and Lenders in enforcing any of its rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any renewal, extension or rearrangement of any payment or covenant to be made or performed by Borrower hereunder or any such other Loan Document, shall constitute a waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or such Loan Document or of any such right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, or any delay in the exercise hereof, shall preclude other or further exercise of the rights of the parties under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 11                     GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

SECTION 12                     SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its respective rights or obligations hereunder or otherwise in respect of any of the Indebtedness without the prior written consent of Agent.

SECTION 13                      COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original instrument, but when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

SECTION 14                      USA PATRIOT ACT.  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.  WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU:  when you open an account, Agent or any Lender will ask your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Agent and Lenders to identify you.  Agent or any Lender may also ask to see your driver’s license, or other identifying documents.

SECTION 15                      NOTICES.  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices and other communications by any party to the other party(ies) relating to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by personal delivery, by United States mail, postage prepaid, by reputable overnight courier or by facsimile, and addressed or delivered to the respective party(ies) at the addresses stated below, or to such other addresses as such party(ies) may from time to time specify to the other(s) in writing.  Requests for information made to Borrower by Agent from time to time hereunder may be made orally or in writing, at Agent’s discretion.

$10,000,000.00
 
note date
 
April 16, 2015
 
maturity date
 
February 5, 2016
 

On or before the Maturity Date set forth above, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned promise(s) to pay to the order of First Bank (herein called “Bank”), at any office of the Bank in the State of California, the principal sum of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), or so much of said sum as has been advanced and is then outstanding under this Note, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

This Note is a note under which advances, repayments and re-advances may be made from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of this Note.

THE BANK SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO MAKE ANY ADVANCES TO THE UNDERSIGNED PURSUANT TO THIS NOTE (NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED IN THIS NOTE OR ELSEWHERE TO THE CONTRARY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMIT, IF THE BANK SUPPLIES THE UNDERSIGNED WITH A BORROWING FORMULA) IN THE EVENT THAT ANY DEFAULT, OR ANY CONDITION OR EVENT WHICH, WITH THE GIVING OF NOTICE OR THE PASSAGE OF TIME, OR BOTH, WOULD CONSTITUTE A DEFAULT, SHALL HAVE OCCURRED AND BE CONTINUING OR EXIST.

Accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal balance outstanding hereunder shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month, until maturity (whether as stated herein, by acceleration, or otherwise). Interest accruing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed, and in such computation, effect shall be given to any change in the applicable interest rate as a result of any change in the Prime Rate on the date of each such change. No interest shall accrue under this Note until the date of the first advance made by the Bank; after that, interest on all advances shall accrue and be computed on the principal balance outstanding from time to time under this Note in accordance with the terms hereof until the same is paid in full.

From and after the occurrence of any Default hereunder, and so long as any such Default remains unremedied or uncured thereafter, the Indebtedness outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate of two percent (2%) above the otherwise applicable interest rate hereunder, which interest shall be payable upon demand. In addition to the foregoing, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of each late payment hereunder may be charged on any payment not received by Bank within ten (10) calendar days after the payment due date therefor, but acceptance of payment of any such charge shall not constitute a waiver of any Default hereunder.

In no event shall the interest payable under this Note at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by law.

The amount and date of each advance hereunder, its applicable interest rate and the amount and date of any repayment shall be noted on Bank’s records, which records shall be conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, any failure by Bank to make any such notation, or any error in any such notation, shall not relieve the undersigned of its/their obligations to repay Bank all amounts payable by the undersigned to Bank under or pursuant to this Note, when due in accordance with the terms hereof.

In the event that any payment under this Note becomes due and payable on any day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, to the extent applicable, interest shall continue to accrue and be payable thereon during such extension at the rate(s) set forth in this Note.

All payments to be made by the undersigned to Bank under or pursuant to this Note shall be in immediately available United States funds, without setoff or counterclaim, and in the event that any payments submitted hereunder are in funds not available until collected, said payments shall continue to bear interest until collected.

The undersigned may prepay all or part of the outstanding balance of any Indebtedness hereunder at any time without premium or penalty. Any prepayment hereunder shall also be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid.

If any Change in Law shall (a) subject Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this Note or any Indebtedness hereunder, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to Bank of the principal of or interest under this Note or any other amounts due under this Note in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Bank imposed by the jurisdiction in which Bank’s principal executive office is located); or (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Bank, or shall impose on Bank or the foreign exchange and interbank markets any other condition affecting this Note or the Indebtedness hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of maintaining any part of the Indebtedness hereunder or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Bank under this Note by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then the undersigned shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of the undersigned’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such increased cost or reduction.  A certificate of Bank, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by Bank and submitted by Bank to the undersigned, setting forth the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

In the event that any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Bank (or any corporation controlling Bank), and Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any obligations of Bank hereunder or the maintaining of any Indebtedness hereunder, and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s (or such controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of such obligations or the maintaining of such Indebtedness hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or such controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then the undersigned shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of the undersigned’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate Bank (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the amount of capital and reduced rate of return which Bank reasonably determines to be allocable to the existence of any obligations of the Bank hereunder or to maintaining any Indebtedness hereunder.  A certificate of Bank as to the amount of such compensation, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by Bank to the undersigned, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

This Note and any other indebtedness and liabilities of any kind of the undersigned (or any of them) to the Bank, and any and all modifications, renewals or extensions of it, whether joint or several, contingent or absolute, now existing or later arising, and however evidenced and whether incurred voluntarily or involuntarily, known or unknown, or originally payable to the Bank or to a third party and subsequently acquired by Bank, including, without limitation, any late charges; loan fees or charges; overdraft indebtedness; costs incurred by Bank in establishing, determining, continuing or defending the validity or priority of any security interest, pledge or other lien or in pursuing any of its rights or remedies under any loan document (or otherwise) or in connection with any proceeding involving the Bank as a result of any financial accommodation to the undersigned (or any of them); and reasonable costs and expenses of attorneys and paralegals, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and whether any suit or other action is instituted, and to court costs if suit or action is instituted, and whether any such fees, costs or expenses are incurred at the trial court level or on appeal, in bankruptcy, in administrative proceedings, in probate proceedings or otherwise (collectively “Indebtedness”) are secured by and the Bank is granted a security interest in and lien upon all items deposited in any account of any of the undersigned with the Bank and by all proceeds of these items (cash or otherwise), all account balances of any of the undersigned from time to time with the Bank, by all property of any of the undersigned from time to time in the possession of the Bank and by any other collateral, rights and properties described in each and every deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge, assignment and other security or collateral agreement which has been, or will at any time(s) later be, executed by any (or all) of the undersigned to or for the benefit of the Bank (collectively “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the above, (i) to the extent that any portion of the Indebtedness is a consumer loan, that portion shall not be secured by any deed of trust or mortgage on or other security interest in any of the undersigned’s principal dwelling or in any of the undersigned’s real property which is not a purchase money security interest as to that portion, unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place, or (ii) if the undersigned (or any of them) has (have) given or give(s) Bank a deed of trust or mortgage covering California real property, that deed of trust or mortgage shall not secure this Note or any other indebtedness of the undersigned (or any of them), unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place.

If (a) the undersigned (or any of them) or any guarantor under a guaranty of all or part of the Indebtedness (“guarantor”) (i) fail(s) to pay this Note or any of the Indebtedness when due, by maturity, acceleration or otherwise, or fail(s) to pay any Indebtedness owing on a demand basis upon demand; or (ii) fail(s) to comply with any of the terms or provisions of any agreement between the undersigned (or any of them) or any guarantor and the Bank, and any such failure continues beyond any applicable grace or cure period, if any, expressly provided with respect thereto; or (iii) become(s) insolvent or the subject of a voluntary or involuntary proceeding in bankruptcy, or a reorganization, arrangement or creditor composition proceeding, (if a business entity) cease(s) doing business as a going concern, (if a natural person) die(s) or become(s) incompetent, (if a partnership) dissolve(s) or any general partner of it dies, becomes incompetent or becomes the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, or (if a corporation or a limited liability company) is the subject of a dissolution, merger or consolidation; or (b) any warranty or representation made by any of the undersigned or any guarantor in connection with this Note or any of the Indebtedness shall be discovered to be untrue or incomplete; or (c) there is any termination, notice of termination, or breach of any guaranty, pledge, collateral assignment or subordination agreement relating to all or any part of the Indebtedness; or (d) there is any failure by any of the undersigned or any guarantor to pay when due any of its indebtedness (other than to the Bank) or in the observance or performance of any term, covenant or condition in any document evidencing, securing or relating to such indebtedness; or (e) the Bank deems itself insecure, believing that the prospect of payment or performance of this Note or any of the Indebtedness is impaired or shall fear deterioration, removal or waste of any of the Collateral; or (f) there is filed or issued a levy or writ of attachment or garnishment or other like judicial process upon the undersigned (or any of them) or any guarantor or any of the Collateral, including, without limit, any accounts of the undersigned (or any of them) or any guarantor with the Bank; then the Bank, upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of any of these events (each a “Default”), may, at its option and without prior notice to the undersigned (or any of them), cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of the undersigned (or any of them) under this Note or any other agreement between the undersigned (or any of them) and Bank, terminate this Note as to any future liability or obligation of Bank, but without affecting Bank’s rights and security interests in any Collateral and the Indebtedness of the undersigned to Bank, declare any or all of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable (notwithstanding any provisions contained in the evidence of it to the contrary), sell or liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral, set off against the Indebtedness any amounts owing by the Bank to the undersigned (or any of them), charge interest at the default rate provided in the document evidencing the relevant Indebtedness and exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies granted to the Bank by any agreement with the undersigned (or any of them) or given to it under applicable law.  In addition, if this Note is secured by a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property, then the trustor or mortgagor shall not mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises as security for any other indebtedness or obligations.  This Note, together with all other indebtedness secured by said deed of trust or mortgage, shall become due and payable immediately, without notice, at the option of the Bank, (a) if said trustor or mortgagor shall mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises for any other indebtedness or obligations or shall convey, assign or transfer the mortgaged premises by deed, installment sale contract or other instrument, or (b) if the title to the mortgaged premises shall become vested in any other person or party in any manner whatsoever, or (c) if there is any disposition (through one or more transactions) of legal or beneficial title to a controlling interest of said trustor or mortgagor.

The undersigned authorize(s) the Bank to charge any account(s) of the undersigned (or any of them) with the Bank for any and all sums due hereunder when due; provided, however, that such authorization shall not affect any of the undersigned’s obligation to pay to the Bank all amounts when due, whether or not any such account balances that are maintained by the undersigned with the Bank are insufficient to pay to the Bank  any amounts when due, and to the extent that such account balances are insufficient to pay to the Bank all such amounts, the undersigned shall remain liable for any deficiencies until paid in full.

If this Note is signed by two or more parties (whether by all as makers or by one or more as an accommodation party or otherwise), the obligations and undertakings under this Note shall be that of all and any two or more jointly and also of each severally. This Note shall bind the undersigned, and the undersigned’s respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

The undersigned waive(s) presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of demand or intent to demand, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, and all other notices, and agree(s) that no extension or indulgence to the undersigned (or any of them) or release, substitution or nonenforcement of any security, or release or substitution of any of the undersigned, any guarantor or any other party, whether with or without notice, shall affect the obligations of any of the undersigned. The undersigned waive(s) all defenses or right to discharge available under Section 3605 of the California Uniform Commercial Code and waive(s) all other suretyship defenses or right to discharge. The undersigned agree(s) that the Bank has the right to sell, assign, or grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness, and that, in connection with this right, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the full extent allowable, the Bank may disclose all documents and information which the Bank now or later has relating to the undersigned or the Indebtedness.  The undersigned agree(s) that the Bank may provide information relating to this Note or relating to the undersigned to the Bank’s parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and service providers.

The undersigned agree(s) to pay or reimburse to Bank, or any other holder or owner of this Note, on demand, any and all costs and expenses of Bank (including, without limit, court costs, legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, whether inside or outside counsel is used, whether or not suit is instituted, and, if suit is instituted, whether at the trial court level, appellate level, in a bankruptcy, probate or administrative proceeding or otherwise ) incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, amendment, administration, and performance of this Note and the related documents, or incurred in collecting or attempting to collect this Note or the Indebtedness, or incurred in any other matter or proceeding relating to this Note or the Indebtedness.

The undersigned acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that there are no contrary agreements, oral or written, establishing a term of this Note and agree(s) that the terms and conditions of this Note may not be amended, waived or modified except in a writing signed by an officer of the Bank expressly stating that the writing constitutes an amendment, waiver or modification of the terms of this Note. As used in this Note, the word “undersigned” means, individually and collectively, each maker, accommodation party, endorser and other party signing this Note in a similar capacity. If any provision of this Note is unenforceable in whole or part for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be effective. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

For the purposes of this Note, the following terms have the following meanings:

EX-10.5 6 exhibit10-5.htm SECURITY AGREEMENT exhibit10-5.htm


SECURITY AGREEMENT

As of April 16, 2015, in connection with that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Amended and Restated Advance Formula Agreement, each dated April 16, 2015 by and among Owens Realty Mortgage, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("Borrower”), California Bank & Trust, as administrative agent for and on behalf of the Lenders (as defined therein) (in such capacity, the "Agent") and the Lenders party thereto, as amended, modified, extended, renewed or restated from time to time (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”), and for value received, the undersigned Borrower pledges, assigns and grants to Agent for and on behalf of the Lenders, a continuing security interest and lien (any pledge, assignment, security interest or other lien arising hereunder is sometimes referred to herein as a "security interest") in the Collateral (as defined below) to secure payment when due, whether by stated maturity, demand, acceleration or otherwise, of all existing and future Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement).  Any reference in this Agreement to attorneys' fees shall be deemed a reference to reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of counsel and paralegals, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and whether or not a suit or action is instituted, and to court costs if a suit or action is instituted, and whether attorneys' fees or court costs are incurred at the trial court level, on appeal, in a bankruptcy, administrative or probate proceeding or otherwise.  All costs and expenses shall be payable immediately by the Borrower to Agent when incurred by the Agent or Lenders, immediately upon demand, and until paid shall bear interest at the highest per annum rate applicable to any of the Indebtedness, but not in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law.

Borrower further covenants, agrees, represents and warrants as follows:

1.      Collateral. Collateral shall mean all personal property of Borrower including, without limitation, all of the following property Borrower now or later owns or has an interest in, wherever located:

all Accounts Receivable (for purposes of this Agreement, "Accounts Receivable" consists of all accounts, general intangibles (including, without limit, payment intangibles and software), chattel paper (including, without limit, electronic chattel paper and tangible chattel paper), contract rights, deposit accounts, documents (including, without limit, negotiable documents), instruments (including, without limit, promissory notes) and rights to payment evidenced by chattel paper, documents or instruments, health care insurance receivables, commercial tort claims, letters of credit, letter of credit rights, supporting obligations, money and rights to payment for money or funds advanced or sold),

all Inventory (including, without limit, returns and repossessions),

all Equipment and Fixtures,

all investment property (including, without limit, securities, securities entitlements, and financial assets), all securities accounts and all investment property contained therein, including, without limitation, all securities and securities entitlements, financial assets, instruments or other property contained in such securities accounts, and all other investment property, financial assets, instruments or other property at any time held or maintained in such securities accounts, together with all investment property, financial assets, instruments or other property at any time substituted for all or for any part of the foregoing, and all interest, dividends, increases, profits, new investment property, financial assets, instruments or other property and or other increments, distributions or rights of any kind received on account of any of the foregoing, and all other income received in connection therewith,

all Software (for purposes of this Agreement "Software" consists of all (i) computer programs and supporting information provided in connection with a transaction relating to the program, and (ii) computer programs embedded in goods and any supporting information provided in connection with a transaction relating to the program whether or not the program is associated with the goods in such a manner that it customarily is considered part of the goods, and whether or not, by becoming the owner of the goods, a person acquires a right to use the program in connection with the goods, and whether or not the program is embedded in goods that consist solely of the medium in which the program is embedded),

all general intangibles (including, without limit, software) acquired or used in connection with any of the Collateral,

all goods, instruments (including, without limit, promissory notes), documents (including, without limit, negotiable documents), policies and certificates of insurance, deposit accounts, deposits, money, investment property or other property (except real property which is not a fixture) which are now or later in possession or control of Agent, or as to which Agent now or later controls possession by documents or otherwise,

 
1

 
all additions, attachments, accessions, parts, replacements, substitutions, renewals, interest, dividends, distributions, rights of any kind (including, but not limited to, stock splits, stock rights, voting and preferential rights), products, and all cash and non-cash proceeds of or pertaining to the above, including, without limit, insurance and condemnation proceeds, and cash or other property which were proceeds and are recovered by a bankruptcy trustee or otherwise as a preferential transfer by Borrower, and

all of Borrower’s books and records with respect to any of the foregoing (including, without limit, computer software and the computers and equipment containing said books and records).

In the definition of Collateral, a reference to a type of collateral shall not be limited by a separate reference to a more specific or narrower type of that collateral.

2.    Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. Borrower warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

 
2.1
Borrower shall furnish to Agent, in form and at intervals as Agent may request, any information Agent may reasonably request and allow Agent and Lenders to examine, inspect, and copy any of Borrower's books and records. Borrower shall, at the request of Agent, mark its records and the Collateral to clearly indicate the security interest of Agent under this Agreement.

 
2.2
At the time any Collateral becomes, or is represented to be, subject to a security interest in favor of Agent, Borrower shall be deemed to have warranted that: (a) Borrower is the lawful owner of the Collateral and has the right and authority to subject it to a security interest granted to Agent; (b) except to the extent that Agent has previously consented otherwise in writing, none of the Collateral is subject to any security interest other than that in favor of Agent; (c) except to the extent that Agent has previously consented otherwise in writing, there are no financing statements on file in respect of any of the Collateral, other than in favor of Agent; (d) except to the extent that Agent has previously consented otherwise in writing, no person, other than Agent (or any Lender with Agent’s consent), has possession or control (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) of any Collateral of such nature that perfection of a security interest may be accomplished by control; and (e) Borrower acquired its rights in the Collateral in the ordinary course of its business.

 
2.3
Borrower will keep the Collateral free at all times from all claims, liens, security interests and encumbrances other than those in favor of Agent, except as Agent agrees otherwise in writing.  Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of Agent, sell, transfer or lease, or permit to be sold, transferred or leased, any or all of the Collateral, except for Inventory in the ordinary course of its business and will not return any Inventory to its supplier. Agent, any Lender or their representatives may, at all reasonable times inspect the Collateral and may enter upon all premises where the Collateral is kept or might be located. Borrower shall reimburse Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender in connection with such inspections.  

 
2.4
Borrower will do all acts and will execute and/or deliver or cause to be executed and/or delivered all writings requested by Agent to establish, maintain and continue an exclusive, perfected and first security interest of Agent in the Collateral. By executing this Agreement and becoming bound by the terms hereof, Borrower expressly authorizes the filing of financing statements and any amendments thereto covering the Collateral, and authorizes Agent or its representatives to take such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain Agent’s security interest in the Collateral. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that neither Agent nor Lenders have any obligation to acquire or perfect any lien on or security interest in any asset(s), whether realty or personalty, to secure payment of the Indebtedness, and Borrower is not relying upon assets in which the Agent or any Lender has or may have a lien or security interest for payment of the Indebtedness. In the event that any Collateral, or any of Borrower’s books or records relating to any Collateral, is at any time located or stored at or upon leased premises or with a bailee, warehouseman or other third party, Borrower shall promptly provide written notice thereof to Agent and, upon Agent’s request, cause such lessor, bailee, warehouseman or other third party to execute and deliver unto Agent such documents, instruments or agreements as Agent may reasonably require, in each case in form and substance acceptable to Agent, pursuant to which such lessor, bailee, warehouseman or other third party acknowledges Agent’s security interest in such Collateral and that it is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Agent and permits Agent access to and possession of such Collateral.

 
2.5
Borrower will pay, within the time that they can be paid without interest or penalty, all taxes, assessments and similar charges which at any time are or may become a lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any Collateral, except to the extent contested in good faith and bonded in a manner satisfactory to Agent. If Borrower fails to pay any of these taxes, assessments, or other charges in the time provided above, Agent has the option (but not the obligation) to do so and Borrower agrees to repay all amounts so expended by Agent or Lenders immediately upon demand, together with interest at the highest lawful default rate which could be charged by Agent or Lenders on any Indebtedness. Any such payments made by Agent or Lenders shall not constitute (a) any agreement by Agent or Lenders to make similar payments in the future, or (b) a waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default under this Agreement. Agent need not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such taxes, assessments and similar charges, and the usual official notice of such taxes, assessments and similar charges shall be conclusive evidence that the same are validly due and owing. Such payments shall constitute Indebtedness secured by this Agreement.
 
 
2

 

 
 
2.6
Borrower will keep the Collateral in good condition and will protect it from loss, damage, or deterioration from any cause. Borrower has and will maintain at all times (a) with respect to the Collateral, insurance under an "all risk" policy against fire and other risks customarily insured against, and (b) public liability insurance and other insurance as may be required by law or reasonably required by Agent. All of such insurance policies shall be in amount, form and content, and written by companies as may be satisfactory to Agent, and shall contain a lender's loss payable endorsement in favor of and acceptable to Agent. All such policies shall contain a provision whereby they may not be canceled or materially amended except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Agent.  Borrower will promptly deliver to Agent, at Agent’s request, evidence satisfactory to Agent that such insurance has been so procured and, with respect to casualty insurance, made payable to Agent.  Borrower hereby appoints Agent, or any employee or agent of Agent, as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, and authorizes Agent, or any employee or agent of Agent, on behalf of Borrower, to adjust and compromise any loss under said insurance and to endorse any check or draft payable to Borrower in connection with returned or unearned premiums on said insurance or the proceeds of said insurance, and any amount so collected may be applied toward satisfaction of the Indebtedness; provided, however, that Agent shall not be required hereunder so to act. If Borrower fails to maintain satisfactory insurance, Agent has the option (but not the obligation) to do so and Borrower agrees to repay all amounts so expended to Agent immediately upon demand, together with interest at the highest lawful default rate which could be charged by Agent or any Lender on any Indebtedness. Such amounts so expended by Agent or any Lender shall constitute Indebtedness secured by this Agreement.

 
2.7
On each occasion on which Borrower evidences to Agent the account balances on and the nature and extent of the Accounts Receivable, Borrower shall be deemed to have warranted that, except as otherwise indicated: (a) each of those Accounts Receivable is valid and enforceable without performance by Borrower of any act; (b) each of those account balances are in fact owing; (c) there are no setoffs, recoupments, credits, contra accounts, counterclaims or defenses against any of those Accounts Receivable; (d) as to any Accounts Receivable represented by a note, trade acceptance, draft or other instrument or by any chattel paper or document, the same has/have been endorsed and/or delivered by Borrower to Agent; (e) Borrower has not received with respect to any Account Receivable, any notice of the death of the related account debtor, nor of the dissolution, liquidation, termination of existence, insolvency, business failure, appointment of a receiver for, assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against, the account debtor; and (f) as to each Account Receivable, except as may be expressly permitted by Agent to the contrary in another document, the account debtor is not an affiliate of Borrower, the United States of America or any department, agency or instrumentality of it, or a citizen or resident of any jurisdiction outside of the United States. Borrower will do all acts and will execute all writings requested by Agent to perform, enforce performance of, and collect all Accounts Receivable. Borrower will deliver to Agent such documents, instruments and other writings evidencing or otherwise relating to the Accounts Receivable as Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Borrower shall neither make nor permit any modification, compromise or substitution for any Account Receivable without the prior written consent of Agent. Agent may at any time and from time to time verify Accounts Receivable directly with account debtors or by other methods acceptable to Agent without notifying Borrower. Borrower agrees, at Agent’s request, to arrange or cooperate with Agent in arranging for verification of Accounts Receivable.

 
2.8
Borrower at all times shall be in strict compliance with all applicable laws, including, without limit, any laws, ordinances, directives, orders, statutes, or regulations an object of which is to regulate or improve health, safety, or the environment ("Environmental Laws").

 
2.9
If Agent, acting in its sole discretion, redelivers Collateral to Borrower or Borrower's designee for the purpose of (a) the ultimate sale or exchange thereof; or (b) presentation, collection, renewal, or registration of transfer thereof; or (c) loading, unloading, storing, shipping, transshipping, manufacturing, processing or otherwise dealing with it preliminary to sale or exchange; such redelivery shall be in trust for the benefit of Agent and shall not constitute a release of Agent’s security interest in it or in the proceeds or products of it, unless Agent specifically so agrees in writing. If Borrower requests any such redelivery, Borrower expressly authorizes Agent to file a financing statement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent in respect of such Collateral. Any proceeds of Collateral coming into Borrower's possession as a result of any such redelivery shall be held in trust for Agent and immediately delivered to Agent for application on the Indebtedness. Agent may (in its sole discretion) deliver any or all of the Collateral to Borrower, and such delivery by Agent shall discharge Agent from all liability or responsibility for such Collateral. Agent, at its option, may require delivery of any Collateral to Agent at any time with such endorsements or assignments of the Collateral as Agent may request.
 
 
3

 
 
 
2.10
At any time and without notice, Agent may, as to any Collateral: (a) cause any or all of such Collateral to be transferred to its name or to the name of its nominees; (b) receive or collect, by legal proceedings or otherwise, all dividends, interest, principal payments and other sums and all other distributions at any time payable or receivable on account of such Collateral, and hold the same as Collateral, or apply the same to the Indebtedness, the manner and distribution of the application to be in the sole discretion of Agent; (c) enter into any extension, subordination, reorganization, deposit, merger or consolidation agreement or any other agreement relating to or affecting such Collateral, and deposit or surrender control of such Collateral, and accept other property in exchange for such Collateral and hold or apply the property or money so received pursuant to this Agreement; and (d) take such actions in its own name or in Borrower's name as Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate to establish exclusive control (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) over any Collateral of such nature that perfection of the Agent’s security interest may be accomplished by control.

 
2.11
Agent may assign any of the Indebtedness and deliver any or all of the Collateral to its assignee, who then shall have with respect to Collateral so delivered all the rights and powers of Agent under this Agreement, and after that Agent shall be fully discharged from all liability and responsibility with respect to Collateral so delivered.

 
2.12
Borrower agrees that no security or guarantee now or later held by Agent or any Lender for the payment of any indebtedness, whether from Borrower, any guarantor or otherwise, and whether in the nature of a security interest, pledge, lien, assignment, setoff, suretyship, guaranty, indemnity, insurance or otherwise, shall affect in any manner the security interests or other rights or interests of Agent or Lenders under this Agreement or any of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, and Agent, in its sole discretion, without notice to Borrower, may release, exchange, modify, enforce and otherwise deal with any security or guaranty without affecting in any manner the unconditional pledge of Borrower under this Agreement.

        2.13
Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Agent, each Lender and each of their employees, agents, shareholders, affiliates, officers, and directors from and against any and all claims, damages, fines, expenses, liabilities or causes of action of whatever kind, including, without limit, consultant fees, legal expenses, and attorneys fees, suffered by any of them as a direct or indirect result of any actual or asserted violation of any law, including, without limit, Environmental Laws, or of any remediation relating to any property required by any law, including, without limit, Environmental Laws, except and to the extent (but only to the extent) caused by Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The obligations contained in this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement.

 
2.14
Borrower delivers this Agreement based solely on Borrower's independent investigation of (or decision not to investigate) the financial condition of Borrower and is not relying on any information furnished by Agent or any Lender. Borrower assumes full responsibility for obtaining any further information concerning the Borrower's financial condition, the status of the Indebtedness or any other matter which the Borrower may deem necessary or appropriate now or later. Borrower waives any duty on the part of Agent and Lenders, and agrees that Borrower is not relying upon nor expecting Agent or any Lender to disclose to Borrower any fact now or later known by Agent or such Lender, whether relating to the operations or condition of Borrower, the existence, liabilities or financial condition of any guarantor of the Indebtedness, the occurrence of any default with respect to the Indebtedness, or otherwise, notwithstanding any effect such fact may have upon Borrower's risk or Borrower's rights against Borrower. Borrower knowingly accepts the full range of risk encompassed in this Agreement, which risk includes, without limit, the possibility that Borrower may incur Indebtedness to Agent or Lenders after the financial condition of Borrower, or Borrower's ability to pay debts as they mature, has deteriorated.

 
2.15
Borrower agrees that no security or guarantee now or later held by Agent for the payment of any Indebtedness, whether from Borrower, any guarantor, or otherwise, and whether in the nature of a security interest, pledge, lien, assignment, setoff, suretyship, guaranty, indemnity, insurance or otherwise, shall affect in any manner the security interests or other interests granted by Borrower to or in favor of Agent or Lenders under this Agreement, or any obligations of Borrower hereunder or pursuant hereto, and Agent, in its sole discretion, without notice to Borrower, may release, exchange, modify, enforce and otherwise deal with any security or guaranty without affecting in any manner such security interests or other interests of Agent or any such obligations of Borrower under this Agreement.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that neither Agent nor any Lender have any obligation to acquire or perfect any lien on or security interest in any assets, whether realty or personalty, or to obtain any guaranty to secure payment of the Indebtedness, and Borrower is not relying upon any guaranty which Agent or any Lender has or may have or assets in which Agent or any Lender has or may have a lien or security interest for payment of the Indebtedness.
 
 
4

 
 
 
2.16
Borrower absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives:

 
(a)
Notice of: (i) acceptance hereof; (ii) any loans or other financial accommodations made or extended to Borrower or the creation or existence of any Indebtedness; (iii) notice of the amount of the Indebtedness, subject, however, to Borrower’s right to make inquiry of Agent or any Lender to ascertain the amount of the Indebtedness at any reasonable time; and (iv) any default or breach under the terms of any of the Indebtedness; and all other notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to Borrower hereunder) and demands to which Borrower might otherwise be entitled.

 
(b)
Its right under Sections 2845 or 2850 of the California Civil Code, or otherwise, to require Agent to institute suit against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which Agent or any Lender has or may have against, Borrower or any third party, or against any collateral for the Indebtedness provided by Borrower or any third party.  In this regard, Borrower is bound to the payment of all Indebtedness whether now existing or hereafter accruing, as fully as if such Indebtedness were directly owing to Agent by Borrower.  Borrower waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Indebtedness shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower in respect thereof.

 
(c)
(i) Any rights to assert against Agent or any Lender any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which Borrower may now or at any time hereafter have against the Borrower or any other party liable to Agent or any Lender; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Indebtedness or any security therefor; (iii) any defense Borrower has to performance hereunder, and any right Borrower has to be exonerated, provided by Sections 2819, 2822, or 2825 of the California Civil Code, or otherwise, arising by reason of: the impairment or suspension of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or remedies against Borrower; the alteration by Agent or Lenders of the Indebtedness; any discharge of the Indebtedness by operation of law as a result of Agent’s or any Lender’s intervention or omission; or the acceptance by Agent or any Lender of anything in partial satisfaction of the Indebtedness; (iv) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Indebtedness shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to Borrower’s liability hereunder.

 
(d)
Any defense arising by reason of or deriving from (i) any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Agent or any Lender; or (ii) any election by Agent or the Lenders under the Bankruptcy Code Section 1111(b) to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its claim against Borrower.

        2.17
Without notice to or by Borrower, and without affecting or impairing the obligations of Borrower hereunder, Agent may (or authorize Lenders to), by action or inaction:

 
(a)
compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or otherwise not enforce this Agreement, the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, with respect to Borrower or any other person;
 
 
5

 
 
 
(b)
release Borrower or any other person or grant other indulgences to Borrower or any other person in respect thereof;

 
(c)
amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any documents, instruments or agreements evidencing, governing, securing or otherwise relating to any of the Indebtedness; or

 
(d)
release or substitute any guarantor, if any, of the Indebtedness, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security for the Indebtedness or any guaranty of the Indebtedness, or any portion thereof.

        2.18
Agent and Lenders shall have all of the rights to seek recourse against Borrower to the fullest extent provided for herein and the Loan Documents.  No election by Agent to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of the Agent’s right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties, unless the Agent has expressly waived such right in writing.  Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by Agent or any Lender under any document or instrument evidencing the Indebtedness shall serve to diminish the liability of the Borrower under this Agreement, except to the extent that Agent and Lenders finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment by such action or proceeding.

 
2.19
Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Agent or Lenders.

        2.20
WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, KNOWINGLY, UNCONDITIONALLY, AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY AND ALL BENEFITS OR DEFENSES ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 2799, 2808, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2825, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2849, AND 2850, CALIFORNIA UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECTIONS 3116, 3118, 3119, 3419, 3605, 9610, 9611, 9615, 9617, 9618, 9624, 9625, AND 9627, AND CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 14 OF PART 4 OF DIVISION 3 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE.

3.    Collection of Proceeds.

 
3.1
Borrower agrees to collect and enforce payment of all Collateral until Agent shall direct Borrower to the contrary. Immediately upon notice to Borrower by Agent and at all times after that, Borrower agrees to fully and promptly cooperate and assist Agent in the collection and enforcement of all Collateral and to hold in trust for Agent all payments received in connection with Collateral and from the sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral, all rights by way of suretyship or guaranty and all rights in the nature of a lien or security interest which Borrower now or later has regarding Collateral. Immediately upon and after such notice, Borrower agrees to (a) endorse to Agent and immediately deliver to Agent all payments received on Collateral or from the sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral or arising from any other rights or interests of Borrower in the Collateral, in the form received by Borrower without commingling with any other funds, and (b) immediately deliver to Agent all property in Borrower's possession or later coming into Borrower's possession through enforcement of Borrower's rights or interests in the Collateral. Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent or any Agent employee or agent to endorse the name of Borrower upon any checks or other items which are received in payment for any Collateral, and to do any and all things necessary in order to reduce these items to money. Agent shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of Collateral or the proceeds of it, nor as to the preservation of any related rights, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in the possession of Agent. Borrower agrees to take all steps necessary to preserve rights against prior parties with respect to the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 3.1 shall be deemed a consent by Agent or Lenders to any sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral.

 
3.2
Borrower agrees that immediately upon Agent’s request (if an Event of Default has occurred and then exists), the Indebtedness shall be on a "remittance basis" in accordance with the following. In connection therewith, Borrower shall at its sole expense establish and maintain (and Agent, at Agent’s option, may establish and maintain at Borrower's expense):

 
(a)
A United States Post Office lock box (the "Lock Box"), to which Agent shall have exclusive access and control. Borrower expressly authorizes Agent, from time to time, to remove contents from the Lock Box, for disposition in accordance with this Agreement. Borrower agrees to notify all account debtors and other parties obligated to Borrower that all payments made to Borrower (other than payments by electronic funds transfer) shall be remitted, for the credit of Borrower, to the Lock Box, and Borrower shall include a like statement on all invoices; and
 
 
6

 
 
 
(b)
A non-interest bearing deposit account with Agent which shall be titled as designated by Agent (the "Cash Collateral Account") to which Agent shall have exclusive access and control. Borrower agrees to notify all account debtors and other parties obligated to Borrower that all payments made to Borrower by electronic funds transfer shall be remitted to the Cash Collateral Account, and Borrower, at Agent’s request, shall include a like statement on all invoices. Borrower shall execute all documents and authorizations as required by Agent to establish and maintain the Lock Box and the Cash Collateral Account.
 
 
 
3.3
All items or amounts which are remitted to the Lock Box, to the Cash Collateral Account, or otherwise delivered by or for the benefit of Borrower to Agent on account of partial or full payment of, or with respect to, any Collateral shall, at Agent’s option, (a) be applied to the payment of the Indebtedness, whether then due or not, in such order or at such time of application as Agent may determine in its sole discretion, or, (b) be deposited to the Cash Collateral Account. Borrower agrees that neither Agent nor Lenders shall be liable for any loss or damage which Borrower may suffer as a result of Agent’s processing of items or its or any Lender’s exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement, including without limitation indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of revenues or profits, or any claim, demand or action by any third party arising out of or in connection with the processing of items or the exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from and against all such third party claims, demands or actions, and all related expenses or liabilities, including, without limitation, attorney's fees, except to the extent (but only to the extent) caused by Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

4.
Defaults, Enforcement and Application of Proceeds.

 
4.1
The occurrence or existence of any of the following conditions or events shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:

 
(a)

(c)
Any warranty, representation, financial statement, or other information made, given or furnished to Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any Guarantor shall be, or shall prove to have been, false or materially misleading when made, given, or furnished; or

 
(d)
Any loss, theft, substantial damage or destruction to or of any Collateral, or the issuance or filing of any attachment, levy, garnishment or the commencement of any proceeding in connection with any Collateral or of any other judicial process of, upon or in respect of Borrower, any Guarantor, or any Collateral; or

 
(e)
Sale or other disposition by Borrower or any Guarantor of any substantial portion of its assets or property or voluntary suspension of the transaction of business by Borrower or any Guarantor, or death, dissolution, termination of existence, merger, consolidation, insolvency, business failure, or assignment for the benefit of creditors of or by Borrower or any Guarantor; or commencement of any proceedings under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or laws for the relief of debtors by or against Borrower or any Guarantor; or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, court appointee, sequestrator or otherwise, for all or any part of the property of Borrower or any Guarantor; or

 
(f)
Agent deems the margin of Collateral insufficient or itself insecure, in good faith believing that the prospect of payment or performance of the Indebtedness or performance of this Agreement is impaired or shall fear deterioration, removal, or waste of Collateral; or

 
(g)
Any default or event of default shall occur under any instrument, agreement or other document evidencing, securing or otherwise relating to any of the Indebtedness.

 
4.2
Upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of any Event of Default, Agent may at its discretion and without prior notice to Borrower declare any or all of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, and shall have and may exercise any right or remedy available to it including, without limitation, any one or more of the following rights and remedies:
 
 
7

 
 
 
(a)
Exercise all the rights and remedies upon default, in foreclosure and otherwise, available to secured parties under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law;

 
(b)
Institute legal proceedings to foreclose upon the lien and security interest granted by this Agreement, to recover judgment for all amounts then due and owing as Indebtedness, and to collect the same out of any Collateral or the proceeds of any sale of it;

 
(c)
Institute legal proceedings for the sale, under the judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, of any or all Collateral; and/or

 
(d)
Personally or by agents, attorneys, or appointment of a receiver, enter upon any premises where Collateral may then be located, and take possession of all or any of it and/or render it unusable; and without being responsible for loss or damage to such Collateral, hold, operate, sell, ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, lease, or dispose of all or any Collateral at one or more public or private sales, leasings or other dispositions, at places (including, without limit, Borrower’s premises) and times and on terms and conditions as Agent may deem fit, without any previous demand or advertisement; and except as provided in this Agreement, all notice of sale, lease or other disposition, and advertisement, and other notice or demand, any right or equity of redemption, and any obligation of a prospective purchaser or lessee to inquire as to the power and authority of Agent to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or as to the application by Agent or Lenders of the proceeds of sale or otherwise, which would otherwise be required by, or available to Borrower under, applicable law are expressly waived by Borrower to the fullest extent permitted.

At any sale pursuant to this Section 4.2, whether under the power of sale, by virtue of judicial proceedings or otherwise, it shall not be necessary for Agent, or a public officer under order of a court to have present physical or constructive possession of Collateral to be sold. The recitals contained in any conveyances and receipts made and given by Agent or the public officer to any purchaser at any sale made pursuant to this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters stated (including, without limit, as to the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Indebtedness, the accrual and nonpayment of it and advertisement and conduct of the sale); and all prerequisites to the sale shall be presumed to have been satisfied and performed. Upon any sale of any Collateral, the receipt of the officer making the sale under judicial proceedings or of Agent shall be sufficient discharge to the purchaser for the purchase money, and the purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the application of the money. Any sale of any Collateral under this Agreement shall be a perpetual bar against Borrower with respect to that Collateral. At any sale or other disposition of the Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.2, Agent and Lenders disclaim all warranties which would otherwise be given under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limit, a disclaimer of any warranty relating to title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and Agent may communicate these disclaimers to a purchaser at such disposition. This disclaimer of warranties will not render the sale commercially unreasonable. Agent may, in its discretion, bid and purchase any of the Collateral at any sale pursuant to this Section 4.2.
 
 
 
4.3
Borrower shall at the request of Agent, notify the account debtors or obligors of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral and direct payment of it to Agent. Agent may, itself, upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of any Event of Default, so notify the account debtors or obligors of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral and direct such account debtors or obligors to make payments directly to Agent. At the request of Agent, whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, Borrower shall immediately take such actions as the Agent shall request to establish exclusive control (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) by Agent over any Collateral which is of such a nature that perfection of a security interest may be accomplished by control.

 
4.4
The proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral authorized by this Agreement shall be applied by Agent first upon all expenses authorized by the Uniform Commercial Code and all reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses incurred by Agent or Lenders; the balance of the proceeds of the sale or other disposition shall be applied in the payment of the Indebtedness, first to interest, then to principal, then to remaining Indebtedness and the surplus, if any, shall be paid over to Borrower or to such other person(s) as may be entitled to it under applicable law. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency, which it shall pay to Agent immediately upon demand. Borrower agrees that Agent shall be under no obligation to accept any noncash proceeds in connection with any sale or disposition of Collateral unless failure to do so would be commercially unreasonable. If Agent agrees in its sole discretion to accept noncash proceeds (unless the failure to do so would be commercially unreasonable), Agent may ascribe any commercially reasonable value to such proceeds. Without limiting the foregoing, Agent may apply any discount factor in determining the present value of proceeds to be received in the future or may elect to apply proceeds to be received in the future only as and when such proceeds are actually received in cash by Agent.

4.5
Nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall it be construed, to preclude Agent or Lenders from pursuing any other right or remedy provided by law or in equity for the collection of the Indebtedness or for the recovery of any other sum to which Agent or Lenders may be entitled for the breach of this Agreement by Borrower. Nothing in this Agreement shall reduce or release in any way any rights or security interests of Agent contained in any existing agreement between Borrower or any Guarantor and Agent.

 
4.6
No waiver of default or consent to any act by Borrower shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Agent. No waiver of any default or forbearance on the part of Agent or any Lender in enforcing any of its rights under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion or of any rights.

 
4.7
Borrower (a) irrevocably appoints Agent or any agent of Agent (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower (with full power of substitution) in the name, place and stead of, and at the expense of, Borrower and (b) authorizes Agent or any agent of Agent, in its own name, at Borrower's expense, to do any of the following, as Agent, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate:

 
(i)
to demand, receive, sue for, and give receipts or acquittances for any moneys due or to become due on any Collateral and to endorse any item representing any payment on or proceeds of the Collateral;

 
(ii)
to execute and/or file in the name of and on behalf of Borrower all financing statements or other filings deemed necessary or desirable by Agent to evidence, perfect, or continue the security interests granted in this Agreement; and

 
(iii)
to do and perform any act on behalf of Borrower permitted or required under this Agreement.

 
4.8
Upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of an Event of Default, Borrower also agrees, upon request of Agent, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at any place designated by Agent which is reasonably convenient to Agent and Borrower. Agent may take any and all actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to protect the Collateral and its security interest in the Collateral, and all costs and expenses for the same shall be added to the Indebtedness and shall be payable upon demand. All risks of loss, damage or destruction to the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

 
4.9
The following shall be the basis for any finder of fact's determination of the value of any Collateral which is the subject matter of a disposition giving rise to a calculation of any surplus or deficiency under Section 9.615(f) of the Uniform Commercial Code (as in effect on or after July 1, 2001): (a) the Collateral which is the subject matter of the disposition shall be valued in an "as is" condition as of the date of the disposition, without any assumption or expectation that such Collateral will be repaired or improved in any manner; (b) the valuation shall be based upon an assumption that the transferee of such Collateral desires a resale of the Collateral for cash promptly (but no later than 30 days) following the disposition; (c) all reasonable closing costs customarily borne by the seller in commercial sales transactions relating to property similar to such Collateral shall be deducted, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, tax prorations, attorney's fees, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and marketing costs; (d) the value of the Collateral which is the subject matter of the disposition shall be further discounted to account for any estimated holding costs associated with maintaining such Collateral pending sale (to the extent not accounted for in (c) above), and other maintenance, operational and ownership expenses; and (e) any expert opinion testimony given or considered in connection with a determination of the value of such Collateral must be given by persons having at least 5 years experience in appraising property similar to the Collateral and who have conducted and prepared a complete written appraisal of such Collateral taking into consideration the factors set forth above. The "value" of any such Collateral shall be a factor in determining the amount of proceeds which would have been realized in a disposition to a transferee other than a secured party, a person related to a secured party or a secondary obligor under Section 9.615(f) of the Uniform Commercial Code.

5.
Miscellaneous.

5.1
Until Agent is advised in writing by Borrower to the contrary, all notices, requests and demands required under this Agreement or by law shall be given to, or made upon, Borrower at the following address:  2221 Olympic Boulevard, Walnut Creek, California 94595.

 
5.2
Borrower will give Agent not less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of all contemplated changes in Borrower's name, location, chief executive office, principal place of business, and/or location of any Collateral, but the giving of this notice shall not cure any Event of Default caused by this change.

 
5.3
Agent assumes no duty of performance or other responsibility under any contracts contained within the Collateral.

 
5.4
Agent has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness and any related obligations, including without limit this Agreement. In connection with the above, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the full extent allowable, Agent may disclose all documents and information which Agent now or later has relating to Borrower, the Indebtedness or this Agreement, however obtained. Borrower further agrees that Agent and Lenders may provide information relating to this Agreement or relating to Borrower or the Indebtedness to Agent’s and each Lender’s parent, affiliates, subsidiaries, and service providers.

 
5.5
In addition to Agent’s and Lender’s other rights, any indebtedness owing from Agent or any Lender to Borrower (including, without limitation, amounts maintained by Borrower as deposit accounts (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) with Agent or a Lender) can be set off and applied by Agent or such Lender (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and approval of Agent) on any Indebtedness at any time(s) either before or after maturity or demand without notice to anyone. Any such action shall not constitute (a) acceptance of collateral in discharge of any portion of the Indebtedness, (b) a retention of collateral in satisfaction of an obligation within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code, or (c) if the Indebtedness is secured by California real estate, an action under California Code of Civil Procedure 726.

 
5.6
Borrower, to the extent not expressly prohibited by applicable law, waives any right to require the Agent or any Lender to: (a) proceed against any person or property; (b) give notice of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of personal property security held from Borrower or any other person, or otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 9.504 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect prior to July 1, 2001 or its successor provisions thereafter; or (c) pursue any other remedy in the Agent’s or any Lender’s power. Borrower waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement and presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, dishonor, notice of dishonor, notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate or demand payment of any Indebtedness, any and all other notices to which the Borrower might otherwise be entitled, and diligence in collecting any Indebtedness, and agrees that the Agent and Lenders may, once or any number of times, modify the terms of any Indebtedness, compromise, extend, increase, accelerate, renew or forbear to enforce payment of any or all Indebtedness, or permit Borrower to incur additional Indebtedness, all without notice to Borrower and without affecting in any manner the unconditional obligation of Borrower under this Agreement. Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably waives each and every defense and setoff of any nature which, under principles of guaranty or otherwise, would operate to impair or diminish in any way the obligation of Borrower under this Agreement, and acknowledges that such waiver is by this reference incorporated into each security agreement, collateral assignment, pledge and/or other document from Borrower now or later securing the Indebtedness, and acknowledges that as of the date of this Agreement no such defense or setoff exists. Borrower ratifies and approves all acts of Agent acting in its capacity as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact under this Agreement.  Neither Agent nor its attorney-in-fact will be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law.

 
5.7
Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives any and all rights (whether by subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement, or otherwise) to recover from Borrower or any other person any amounts paid or the value of any Collateral given by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement until such time as all of the Indebtedness has been fully paid.

 
5.8
In the event that applicable law shall obligate Agent to give prior notice to Borrower of any action to be taken under this Agreement, Borrower agrees that a written notice given to Borrower at least ten (10) days before the date of the act shall be reasonable notice of the act and, specifically, reasonable notification of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale, lease, or other disposition is to be made, unless a shorter notice period is reasonable under the circumstances (including, without limitation, if the Collateral, or any portion thereof, is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value). A notice shall be deemed to be given under this Agreement when delivered to Borrower or when placed in an envelope addressed to Borrower and deposited, with postage prepaid, in a post office or official depository under the exclusive care and custody of the United States Postal Service or delivered to an overnight courier. The mailing shall be by overnight courier, certified, or first class mail.

5.9
Notwithstanding any prior revocation, termination, surrender, or discharge of this Agreement in whole or in part, the effectiveness of this Agreement shall automatically continue or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that any payment received or credit given by Agent or any Lender in respect of the Indebtedness is returned, disgorged, or rescinded under any applicable law, including, without limitation, bankruptcy or insolvency laws, in which case this Agreement, shall be enforceable against Borrower as if the returned, disgorged, or rescinded payment or credit had not been received or given by Agent or such Lender, and whether or not Agent or such Lender relied upon this payment or credit or changed its position as a consequence of it.  In the event of continuation or reinstatement of this Agreement, Borrower agrees upon demand by Agent to execute and deliver to Agent those documents which Agent determines are appropriate to further evidence (in the public records or otherwise) this continuation or reinstatement, although the failure of Borrower to do so shall not affect in any way the reinstatement or continuation.

 
5.10
This Agreement and all the rights and remedies of Agent under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Agent’s successors and assigns and to any other holder who derives from Agent title to or an interest in the Indebtedness or any portion of it, and shall bind Borrower and the heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns of Borrower. Nothing in this Section 5.10 is deemed a consent by Agent to any assignment by Borrower.

 
5.11
If there is more than one Borrower, each Borrower agrees that all undertakings, warranties and covenants made by Borrower and all rights, powers and authorities given to or conferred upon Agent are made or given jointly and severally, and each reference to the term Borrower shall mean each and every Borrower a party hereto, individually and collectively, jointly and severally.

 
5.12
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all terms in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in Division 9 (or, absent definition in Division 9, in any other Division) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as those meanings may be amended, supplemented, revised or replaced from time to time. "Uniform Commercial Code" means the California Uniform Commercial Code, as amended, supplemented, revised or replaced from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties intend that the terms used herein which are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code have, at all times, the broadest and most inclusive meanings possible. Accordingly, if the Uniform Commercial Code shall in the future be amended or held by a court to define any term used herein more broadly or inclusively than the Uniform Commercial Code in effect on the date of this Agreement, then such term, as used herein, shall be given such broadened meaning. If the Uniform Commercial Code shall in the future be amended or held by a court to define any term used herein more narrowly, or less inclusively, than the Uniform Commercial Code in effect on the date of this Agreement, such amendment or holding shall be disregarded in defining terms used in this Agreement.

 
5.13
No single or partial exercise, or delay in the exercise, of any right or power under this Agreement, shall preclude other or further exercise of the rights and powers under this Agreement. The unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of Borrower and Agent with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Borrower and an authorized officer of Agent. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

 
5.14
To the extent that any of the Indebtedness is payable upon demand, nothing contained in this Agreement shall modify the terms and conditions of that Indebtedness nor shall anything contained in this Agreement prevent Agent or Lenders from making demand, without notice and with or without reason, for immediate payment of any or all of that Indebtedness at any time(s), whether or not an Event of Default has occurred.

 
5.15
Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower's exact name is the name set forth in this Agreement and that it is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Maryland.  Borrower further represents and warrants the following and agrees that Borrower is, and at all times shall be, located in the following place:   2221 Olympic Boulevard, Walnut Creek, California 94595.

5.17
This Agreement shall be terminated only by the filing of a termination statement in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code.

 
5.18
Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent upon demand for any and all costs and expenses (including, without limit, court costs, legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, whether inside or outside counsel is used, whether or not suit is instituted and, if suit is instituted, whether at the trial court level, appellate level, in a bankruptcy, probate or administrative proceeding or otherwise) incurred in enforcing or attempting to enforce this Agreement or any of the duties or obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or in establishing, determining, continuing or defending the validity or priority of Agent’s security interest under this Agreement or in exercising or attempting to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or incurred in any other matter or proceeding relating to this Agreement.

 
5.19
All payments to be made hereunder by Borrower shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall be made without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset.

        5.20
No right or remedy under this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and every other right or remedy given under this Agreement, under any other agreement(s) and those provided by law or in equity. No exercise by Agent or any Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed to be an election. No delay or omission by Agent or Lenders to exercise any right under this Agreement shall impair any such right nor be construed to be a waiver thereof.  No failure on the part of Agent or Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

6.
BORROWER AND AGENT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE INDEBTEDNESS.

This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety, that certain Security Agreement dated February 5, 2014, made by Borrower in favor of California Bank & Trust.

2. Commitment.
 
(a) Lenders’ Interest in Loan and Total Commitment Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Master Revolving Notes, this Addendum, and the other Loan Documents, each Lender severally agrees to make the Loan to Borrower during the period from the date of this Agreement until (but excluding) the Maturity Date, not to exceed the amount of the Commitment of such Lender indicated on Schedule 1; provided, however, that such Commitments shall not in the aggregate exceed the Total Commitment.
 
(b) Swing Line Loans; Settlement.
 
(i) To fulfill any request for a Loan hereunder, Agent may in its sole and absolute discretion advance Swing Line Loans to Borrowers through one (1) day prior to the Maturity Date, up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $5,000,000.  Swing Line Loans shall convert to an Advance under the Loan on the following business day and will constitute an Advance under the Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account until Lenders have funded their Pro Rata Share therein as provided in (ii) below.
 
(ii) Settlement of Swing Line Loans, among Lenders and Agent shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Agent (but at least weekly, unless the settlement amount is de minimis), based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share.  Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply payments on the Loan to Swing Line Loans, regardless of any designation by Borrowers or any provision herein to the contrary.  Each Lender is hereby bound to fund and reimburse agent, without recourse or warranty, its undivided Pro Rata Share in all Swing Line Loans outstanding from time to time until settled.  If a Swing Line Loan cannot be settled among Lenders, whether due to an insolvency proceeding involving Borrower or for any other reason, each Lender shall pay the amount of such Swing Line Loan based on its Pro Rata Share to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent's request therefor.  Each Lender's obligations to make settlements are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Commitments have terminated or the conditions to advance set forth in the Credit Agreement or Advance Formula Agreement are satisfied.
 
3. Agent.

(b) Sole Administration by Agent.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Addendum, Agent shall solely be responsible for and will administer, service and manage the Loan in accordance with the Credit Agreement, this Addendum and the other Loan Documents, all in such manner as it determines in its sole discretion, provided its actions are in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with Agent’s usual practices, and Agent shall exercise the same degree of care and discretion in continuing to service the Loan (including, without limitation, in reviewing and approving construction draw requests and inspection reports submitted by Borrower) and in collecting payments thereunder as it would ordinarily take in servicing the Loan and in collecting payments thereunder solely for its own account (“Servicing Standard”).

(A) The exercise of any rights and remedies under the Loan Documents following an Event of Default, provided that, absent any direction from or approval/consent by the Required Lenders as to a course of action following consultation by Agent with all Lenders as required by Section 15 of this Addendum, Agent may exercise such rights or remedies following an Event of Default as it may determine in good faith to be necessary or appropriate to protect the Lenders or the collateral securing the Loan (provided, however, that this clause does not authorize the Agent to take action contrary to Section 3(c)(i)(B), (C), (D) or (E) or Section 3(c)(ii), below);
 
(B) Appointment of a Successor Agent, as more fully described in Section 17(b), below;

(E) Approval of any material amendment or modification of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, issuance of any material waiver of any material provision of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including waiver of the conditions specified in the Loan Documents for any Advance or disbursement to the Borrower), or agreement with Borrower to forbear from exercising any material rights or remedies under the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents.
 
(ii) Each of the following shall require the written approval or consent of all of the Lenders:
 
(A) Change in the terms of this Addendum;
 
(B) Extension of the Maturity Date (beyond any extension required under the Loan Documents), any fixed payment date or amortization period or forgiveness of all or any portion of the principal amount of the Loan or any accrued interest thereon, or any other amendment of the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents that would reduce the interest rate options or the rate at which fees are calculated or forgive any loan fee, or extend the time of payment of any principal, interest or fees;
 
(C) Increase in the amount of the Loan or any non-consenting Lender’s Commitment;
 
(D) Release or forgiveness of any Guarantor; and
 
(E) Release or subordination of any lien on any material collateral, including any change in the “release price” for which portions of the collateral will be released (except in any circumstance as required under the Loan Documents).

(iv) All communications from Agent to the Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or item as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such matter or item may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Each Lender shall reply promptly after receipt of the request therefor from Agent; and, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if a Lender fails to respond to a written request for approval or consent by Agent (which response may be a reasonable request for additional information) not later than ten (10) Business Days following Agent’s initial request and five (5) Business Days following a second written request, which second request shall clearly specify that failure to respond within five (5) Business Days shall be deemed to constitute approval, Lender shall be irrevocably deemed to have consented to and approved the requested course of action.
 
(v) Except as otherwise expressly provided under the Credit Agreement, this Addendum or in the other Loan Documents and subject to the terms hereof and thereof, Agent will take such action, assert such rights and pursue such remedies under the Credit Agreement, this Addendum and the other Loan Documents as the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be (as provided for hereunder), shall direct in writing; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to act or refrain from acting if, in the reasonable judgment of the Agent, such action or inaction may expose the Agent to personal liability for which the Agent has not been satisfactorily indemnified hereunder or is contrary to the Credit Agreement, this Addendum, the other Loan Documents or applicable law.  Agent shall promptly notify each Lender at any time that the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be (as provided for hereunder), have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.
 
(vi) Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from action, hereunder and under the Loan Documents in accordance with written instructions signed by all the Lenders (or the Required Lenders, if such action may be directed hereunder by the Required Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all the Lenders.  Each Lender, severally to the extent of its Pro Rata Share, hereby agrees to indemnify Agent against and hold it harmless from any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take such action, provided that the foregoing shall not release Agent from liability for its negligence or willful misconduct.
 
(d) Agent to Hold Documents/Make Reports. Agent shall hold in its possession, at its principal office, a set of original Loan Documents, but shall deliver to each Lender one complete copy of the original Loan Documents and copies of any of the following received from the Borrower in connection with the closing and/or any subsequent modification of the Loan Documents, organizational documents of Borrower and Guarantors, legal opinions, due diligence materials, title policies, insurance policies, environmental reports, land use and zoning approvals and financial statements.  Agent shall provide to each Lender (i) on a monthly basis a report showing the payment history and status of the Loan and (ii) copies of all financial statements and other reports of material importance that Agent obtains pursuant to the Loan Documents or regarding Borrower, any Guarantor or in respect of the collateral for the Loan.  Any Lender shall have the right upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written request to examine the originals of all Loan Documents and other materials pertaining to the Loan at all reasonable times during normal business hours, at the office of Agent where such documentation is maintained, and to make copies at its expense of such documents and materials.  Furthermore, Agent shall upon fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written request from a Lender, make and deliver copies of such documents to such Lender, with such Lender paying the reasonable cost of making and delivering such copies.
 
(e) Insurance.  Agent shall cause each Lender to be an additional insured or loss payee, as applicable, on any title insurance policy obtained with respect to the Loan and on any insurance policy obtained for which, under the Loan Documents, the Agent is to be an additional insured or loss payee; provided, however, that if the applicable insurer refuses to include such Lender as an additional insured or loss payee on such policy, Agent shall immediately notify each Lender of such refusal and take such action as such Lender reasonably requests with respect thereto to protect such Lender’s interest.

(f) Relationship with Borrower.  Lenders acknowledge that, with respect to the Loan and the Loan Documents, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to deal and communicate with Borrower and Guarantor  on behalf of Lenders, subject to the following:  any Lender may communicate directly with Borrower and/or Guarantor with respect to the Loan and the Loan Documents provided that such Lender gives prior written notice to Agent of its intention to do so and gives Agent a reasonable opportunity to participate in that communication.  Each non-Agent Lender agrees that it will not take any legal action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower, Guarantor or any other person or entity (excluding Agent or any other Lender) with respect to the Loan, without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent may be withheld by Agent in its sole and absolute discretion.
 
4. Disbursements.
 
(a) Installments.  The Loan shall be disbursed to Borrower in more than one Advance as provided in the Credit Agreement.  Each Lender’s obligations hereunder shall include the obligation to fund such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Advance (including Swing Line Loans) which Agent has made or committed to make under the Credit Agreement, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions thereof.
 
(b) Funding Disbursements.  At least one (1) Business Day (by 11:00 a.m. Pacific time) prior to each date an Advance (except Swing Line Loans which are governed by Section 2) is to be made, Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Advance in writing by facsimile or email, and shall provide each Lender with copies of all documents submitted by or on behalf of Borrower in support of the proposed Advance. Each Lender shall make available to Agent the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance in immediately available funds to such account as Agent may designate not later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the date such Advance is to be made (such date being referred to herein as a “Funding Date”).  Agent shall not make an Advance to the Borrower if the conditions specified in the Loan Documents to such Advance were not satisfied, unless all Lenders authorize the Advance in writing.  If Agent fails to fund an Advance to Borrower because Agent determines that the conditions to such Advance were not satisfied, Agent may retain the funds to be advanced pending satisfaction of such conditions, or return each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Advance to such Lender.  Upon Agent’s approval of any requested Advance and notification of Lenders in accordance with this Section, each Lender shall be bound to fund its Pro Rata Share of such Advance.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that an Advance is to pay accrued interest owing by Borrower, Agent may make such an Advance without collecting the funds from the Lenders; Agent will notify each  Lender of the Advance and the amount each Lender should debit its records for the Loan to account for it and the amount that each Lender should calculate as having been received as interest.
 
(c) Lender’s Failure to Fund.  If a Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) defaults in making any Advance it was obligated to make under this Agreement or paying any other sum payable by it hereunder, any Lender, by written notice to Agent at such Lender’s sole option, may (but shall not be obligated to) fund such amounts on behalf of such Defaulting Lender.  If more than one Lender elects to fund a Defaulting Lender’s share then each such Lender shall fund on a pro rata basis, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares.  The amount that the Defaulting Lender failed to advance or pay, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Master Revolving Notes from the date such amount was due until repaid (such sum and interest thereon as aforesaid referred to, collectively, as the “Lender Default Obligation”) shall be payable by the Defaulting Lender (i) to any Lender(s) that fund the amount which the Defaulting Lender failed to fund or (ii) to Agent or any other Lender that under the terms of this Agreement is entitled to reimbursement from the Defaulting Lender for the amounts advanced or expended.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has repaid the Lender Default Obligation in full, all amounts that would otherwise be distributed to the Defaulting Lender shall instead be applied first to repay the Lender Default Obligation (to be applied first to interest at the default rate under the Master Revolving Notes and then to principal, first to Agent with respect to Swing Line Loans) until the Lender Default Obligation has been repaid in full (whether by such application or by cure by the Defaulting Lender), whereupon such Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender.  If Borrower pays interest to Agent on account of principal advanced by a Lender(s) on behalf of a Defaulting Lender, that interest shall be remitted to the Lender(s) who made such advance, and shall reduce the amount of interest Defaulting Lender is obligated to pay to such Lender(s) on account of such advance.  The provisions of this Section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments.  No Defaulting Lender shall have the right to vote on matters that are subject to the consent or approval of Required Lenders or all Lenders and while any Lender is a Defaulting Lender the requisite percentage of Lenders that constitutes the Required Lenders shall be calculated exclusive of the Percentage of the Defaulting Lender and such Defaulting Lender shall not be considered a “Lender” in determining the Required Lenders.  Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the Lender Default Obligation any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the Lender Default Obligation and, to the extent such recovery would not fully compensate the Lenders for the Defaulting Lender’s breach of this Agreement, to collect damages.  In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default rate under the Master Revolving Notes, for funds advanced by Agent or any other Lender on account of the Defaulting Lender or any other damages such persons may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement.  The foregoing indemnity agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.

5. Collections and Distributions.
 
(a) Collections of Payments by Agent.  Each Lender’s interest under the Loan shall be payable solely from payments, collections and proceeds actually received by Agent under the Loan Documents; and Agent’s only liability to a Lender with respect to any such payments, collections or proceeds shall be to account for such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof in accordance with the Credit Agreement and this Addendum.  Agent shall have the exclusive right to collect sums on account of the Loan, including, without limitation, protective advances, fees, prepayment premiums (if any), and repayment of advances in excess of the face amount of the Loan, whether such sums are received directly from Borrower or any other persons or entities, or as amounts payable by exercise of the right of offset by Agent of any kind against the deposits, accounts, moneys or other property of Borrower deposited at or held by Agent, or by reason of total or partial condemnation or taking by governmental authority, proceeds or recoveries under insurance policies collected and not applied to repair and restore the Project, payment and performance bonds (if any), title insurance policies, amounts realized by reason of any sale or operation of the collateral for the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents (all collectively, the “Loan Recoveries”).  Agent will hold the Loan Documents and perform all of its obligations under each provision of the Credit Agreement and this Addendum in accordance with the Servicing Standard.  Agent will receive and hold all receipts and collections with respect to the Loan for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share.  If any Lender shall in any manner receive any payments or any other funds or property in connection with the Loan (whether or not voluntary), other than payments from Agent in accordance with the Credit Agreement and this Addendum, such Lender shall transfer to Agent all such payments or other funds or property within two (2) Business Days of learning it received such funds.  The provisions of the immediately-preceding sentence shall survive termination of this Agreement.
 
(b) Distributions and Apportionment of Payments.  Payments actually received by Agent for the account of the Lenders shall be held by Agent in trust for the account of the respective Lenders and be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Agent, but in any event (i) on the next Business Day if such payments are received by Agent by 4:00 p.m. (Pacific time) or (ii) within two (2) Business Days if such payments are received by Agent after 4:00 p.m. (Pacific time), and (ii) to the extent that the applicable payment represents repayment of a portion of the principal of the Loan, the rate of interest applicable to such portion of the Loan, from the date of receipt of such funds by Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to such Lenders.  All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Loan, all payments of the fees described in this Agreement and all payments in respect of any other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be allocated among such of Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion of their respective Pro Rata Shares.  Agent shall distribute to each Lender in accordance with the wire instructions attached hereto as Schedule 2, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including without limitation instructions from the Required Lenders, or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.  The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by the Lenders as they may elect, in writing, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower.
 
(c) Rescission of Payments.  If all or part of any payment of principal, interest or any Loan Recoveries received by Agent is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason and if Agent has paid any portion thereof to any Lender, then Agent shall notify each Lender of the reason such payment must be returned and each Lender shall, upon written notice from Agent, pay to Agent the portion of the rescinded payment received by such Lender.  If notice is received by Lenders before 1:00 p.m. Pacific time, then each Lender shall pay its share of the rescinded payment to Agent on the next Business Day.  If notice is received by Lenders after 1:00 p.m. Pacific time, then each Lender shall pay its share of the rescinded payment to Agent before the end of the second Business Day following receipt of notice.  The provisions of this subsection (c) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(d) Application of Proceeds Following Event of Default to Payment of Agent Fees and Expenses.  To the extent that the foregoing or other provisions in the Addendum are inconsistent with Paragraph 8 of the Credit Agreement, the provisions of that Paragraph 8 control.
 
6. Provisions Relating to Collateral.
 
(a) Agent’s Authority.  Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of further consent from any Lender, at any time and from time to time, to take any action with respect to any collateral for the Loan or any Loan Document that may be necessary to preserve and maintain such collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon such collateral granted pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall take such actions as may be necessary to properly create and perfect Lenders’ security interest in the collateral from the Loan.
 
(b) Disclaimer.  Except as provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other person or entity to assure that any collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the liens granted in the Credit Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents or pursuant thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.
 
(c) Enforcement Involving Collateral.  Should Agent commence any proceeding or in any way seek to enforce Agent’s or Lenders’ rights or remedies under the Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, this Addendum or any of the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether as a result thereof Agent shall acquire title to any collateral, each Lender, upon demand therefor from time to time, shall contribute its Pro Rata Share of the reasonable costs and/or expenses of any such enforcement or acquisition, including, but not limited to, fees of receivers or trustees, court costs, title company charges, filing and recording fees, appraisers’ fees and fees and expenses of attorneys to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by Borrower.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall contribute its Pro Rata Share of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) if Agent employs counsel for advice or other representation (whether or not any suit has been or shall be filed) with respect to any collateral for the Loan or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents, or the attempt to enforce any security interest or lien on any collateral, or to enforce any rights of Agent or the Lenders or any of Borrower’s or any other party’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents, but not with respect to any dispute between Agent and any other Lender(s).  It is understood and agreed that, in the event Agent determines it is necessary to engage counsel for Lenders from and after the occurrence of a default or an Event of Default, said counsel shall be selected by Agent, and Agent shall notify the other Lenders of the identity of counsel so selected.
 
(d) Acquisition of Collateral.  In the event that all or any portion of the collateral for the Loan is acquired by Agent as the result of the exercise of any remedies under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, title to any such collateral or any portion thereof shall be held in the name of Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of Agent, as agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders.  Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such collateral (the “Post-Default Plan”), which shall be subject to the written approval of the Required Lenders.  Agent shall administer the collateral in accordance with the Post-Default Plan and, upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its Pro Rata Share of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent pursuant to the Post-Default Plan, including without limitation, any operating losses and all necessary operating reserves.  To the extent there is net operating income from such collateral, Agent shall, in accordance with the Post-Default Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders.  All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.  In no event shall the provisions of this subsection or the Post-Default Plan require Agent or any Lender to take an action that would cause such Lender to be in violation of any applicable regulatory requirements.
 
7. Ratable Sharing.  Subject to Sections 4 and 5, Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them that are applicable to the payment of the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of set-off or bankers’ lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Loan Documents or any collateral and (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, set-off, bankers’ lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loan held by it that is greater than its Pro Rata Share of the payments on account of the Loan, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Share; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery.

9. No Responsibility for Loan, Recitals, etc.  Subject to compliance with the Servicing Standard, neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any use of the Loan; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any party to any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in the Credit Agreement, except receipt of items purporting to be the items required to be delivered to Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith, provided that the foregoing shall not release Agent from liability for its negligence or willful misconduct.  Agent (I) except as expressly stated herein, makes no warranty or representation of any kind or character relating to Borrower, any collateral, or any guarantor, and shall not be responsible for any warranty or representation made in or in connection with the Loan, the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, (II) makes no warranty or representation as to, and shall not be responsible for the correctness as to form, the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or collectability of the, Loan, the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents, any collateral, any guarantees or any other document relating thereto, or for any failure by Borrower or any Guarantor to perform its obligations thereunder, for Borrower’s use of the proceeds therefrom, or for the preservation of any collateral or the loss, depreciation, or release thereof, subject to the Servicing Standard and the consent rights of Lenders under this Addendum, (III) makes no warranty or representation as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the authenticity, validity, accuracy, or completeness of any notice, financial statement, or other document or information received by Agent in connection with, or otherwise referred to in, the Credit Agreement, and (IV) shall not be responsible for the observance or performance of any agreements contained in, or conditions of, the Credit Agreement, or to inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any Guarantor.  Agent makes no representations or warranties, whether expressed or implied, to Lenders as to the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents.
 
10. Employment of Agents and Counsel.  Agent may undertake any of its duties as agent and servicer hereunder and under any Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable to Lenders, except as to money or securities received by them or their authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.  Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agency hereby created and its duties hereunder and under any Loan Document.
 
11. Reliance on Documents; Counsel.  Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by Agent, which counsel may be an employee of Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not release Agent from liability for its negligence or willful misconduct.
 
12. Agent Reimbursement and Indemnification.  Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify Agent ratably (i) for any amounts (excluding principal and interest on the Loan and loan fees) not reimbursed by Borrower for which Agent is entitled to reimbursement under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iii) for any expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders that may be necessary or desirable to preserve and maintain collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon the collateral granted pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iv) for any amounts and other expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders in connection with any default by any Lender hereunder or under the Loan Documents, if not paid by such Lender, and (v) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent that they (i) are unreasonable, (ii) not customarily incurred, (iii) arise from the negligence or willful misconduct of Agent, or (iv) are incurred in violation of the provisions of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

13. Rights as a Lender.  With respect to its Commitment, if any, Agent shall have the same rights, powers and obligations hereunder and under any Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the agent and servicer, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity as lender.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that Agent and/or its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, hold other investments in, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction or have other relationships, in addition to those contemplated by the Credit Agreement, this Addendum or any Loan Document, with Borrower or any of its affiliates in which Borrower or such affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other person.
 
14. Lenders’ Credit Decisions.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements and other information prepared by Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon 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 the Credit Agreement, this Addendum and the other Loan Documents,
 
15. Notice of Events of Default.  Agent shall promptly give other Lenders notice of an Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge.  Should Agent receive any written notice of the occurrence of a default or Event of Default, or should Agent send Borrower a notice of Default or Event of Default, Agent shall promptly furnish a copy thereof to each Lender.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent and other Lenders shall consult with each other in good faith as to the course of action to be taken as a result thereof.
 
16. Sales, Assignments, Pledges, Participations.  No sale, assignment, pledge, or participation of any interest in the Loan may be made by any Lender hereto without advance notice to all other parties hereto.  No non-Agent Lender may sell, assign, or pledge any portion of its interest in the Loan without the prior written consent of the Agent and the other Lenders, which consent the Agent and such other Lenders may withhold in their sole and absolute discretion.  The Agent Lender may not sell, assign, pledge, or participate all or any portion of its interest in the Loan without the prior written consent of each Lender, which consent each Lender may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion.   In any event, the initial Agent shall not sell, assign, pledge, or participate a portion of its interest in the Loan to more than two (2) persons or entities in addition to those identified in Schedule 1 to this Agreement or which would, in the aggregate, reduce the initial Agent’s unencumbered Pro Rata Share to less than thirty five percent (35%) of the Total Commitment.  Any sale, assignment, pledge, or participation shall be subject to the terms of this Addendum.

(a) The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Agent Termination Event” under this Addendum:  (i) Agent fails to perform or observe any material term or condition of this Addendum or the Loan Documents, such failure continues for more than twenty (20) Business Days after written notice from any Lender regarding the existence and character of such breach, and any Lender thereafter sends written notice to Borrower, Agent, and all other Lenders that an Agent Termination Event has occurred as a result thereof, (ii) Agent becomes insolvent or is subject to the appointment by any governmental authority of any person to take charge of Agent or Agent’s assets, and any Lender sends written notice to Borrower, Agent, and all other Lenders that an Agent Termination Event has occurred as a result thereof, (iii) any governmental authority, including Agent’s state or federal bank regulator, takes or institutes any action which would have a material adverse effect on Agent’s operations or ability to perform under this Agreement, and any Lender sends written notice to Borrower, Agent, and all other Lenders that an Agent Termination Event has occurred as a result thereof, or (iv) Agent has given written notice to Borrower and each of the Lenders of its intention to resign as Agent effective on a specified date at least thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice, and such date has occurred; provided, however, that the resignation of the Agent shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the Required Lenders.  Such Agent, upon the occurrence of an Agent Termination Event, is referred to herein as the “Retiring Agent.

(b) If an Agent Termination Event occurs or if the office of Agent shall become vacant for any other reason, Required Lenders shall, by written instrument, appoint successor agent(s) (“Successor Agent”) satisfactory to such Required Lenders and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that any such Successor Agent shall be a bank or a trust company or other financial institution of the United States or any state thereof, or any Affiliate of such bank or trust company or other financial institution which is engaged in the banking business and has an office in Northern California.  Such Successor Agent shall thereupon become Agent hereunder, and Retiring Agent shall deliver or cause to be delivered to any Successor Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such Successor Agent may reasonably request.  If a Successor Agent is not so appointed, or does not accept such appointment before the Retiring Agent’s resignation or termination becomes effective, the Lender with the largest Pro Rata Share (excluding the Lender who is the Retiring Agent) may appoint a temporary successor to act until such appointment by the Required Lenders and, if applicable, Borrower, is made and accepted or, if no temporary successor is appointed as provided above, the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all of the duties of the Retiring Agent hereunder until such appointment by the Required Lenders and, if applicable, Borrower, is made and accepted.  Such Successor Agent (including any temporary successor or the Required Lenders, if applicable, during the period it or they are acting as temporary successor or performing the duties of the Retiring Agent as provided hereunder) shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the Retiring Agent (including compensation) as if originally named.  The Retiring Agent shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Successor Agent (or any temporary successor or the Required Lenders performing the duties of the Retiring Agent, if applicable hereunder) all moneys at the time held by the Retiring Agent hereunder after deducting therefrom its expenses for which it is entitled to be reimbursed hereunder.  Upon such succession of any such Successor Agent, the Retiring Agent shall be discharged from duties and obligations subsequently arising and shall cease to receive compensation as Agent.  Retiring Agent’s liability, if any, for actions taken or omitted prior to such time shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Addendum.  With respect to the matters described in this Section 17(b), a Lender who is the Retiring Agent shall not have the right to vote, the requisite percentage of Lenders that constitutes the Required Lenders shall be calculated exclusive of the percentage of such Lender, and such Lender shall not be considered a “Lender” in determining the Required Lenders.
 
18. Termination.  This Addendum shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events, provided all obligations under the Credit Agreement, this Addendum and the other Loan Documents have been performed or waived in writing by the party entitled to the benefit of such performance: (a) when the entire indebtedness represented by the Master Revolving Notes shall have been paid (unless such payment has resulted from acquisition of title to the Property by Lenders through foreclosure, the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise), or (b) when both legal and beneficial ownership of said indebtedness and Loan Documents shall be held by one person, firm or corporation (including subsidiaries and Affiliates of such person, firm or corporation), rather than by the Lenders, or (c) when one person, firm or corporation (including subsidiaries and Affiliates of such person, firm or corporation), rather than the Lenders, through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, shall have acquired title to the entire Property.  After termination, each Lender will execute and deliver all instruments as may be necessary and appropriate to reflect the satisfaction of their respective interests and/or the termination of this Agreement.  Upon such termination, no Lender shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement or respecting the Loan or their participation therein, except for provisions of this Agreement that expressly survive termination of this Agreement.
 
19. Notices.  All notices, consents, approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder (a “notice”) shall be given in writing and shall be effective for all purposes if hand delivered or sent (a) by certified or registered United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, (b) by recognized overnight delivery service providing for overnight delivery, or (c) by telefacsimile (with answer back acknowledged) or email transmission (as long as no transmission failure is received by the recipient), in any case addressed as follows (or to such other address as a party shall designate from time to time by notice to the other party in the manner provided for herein):
