The Borrower and the Lender hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Upon the terms and conditions contained herein, the Lender agrees that from October 1, 2005, until the earlier of (i) December 31, 2005, and (ii) termination of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 20, 2005, by and between the Lender, Granite Acquisition, Inc. and the Borrower (the “Merger Agreement ,” and the date of such termination the “Merger Termination Date “, and the earlier of (i) or (ii), the “ Advance Termination Date “), at the Borrower’s request the Lender shall make advances (the “Advances,” and all such Advances, the “Loan”) to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed $18,000,000. The Borrower shall execute a Note, in the amount of $18,000,000 (“Note”) and in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, evidencing the Loan. The proceeds of the Advances are to be used solely for the Borrower’s operating expenses and, in any event, under no circumstances shall proceeds of the Advances be used to repay or refinance any of Borrower’s existing indebtedness (excluding trade payables and similar obligations of the Borrower incurred in the ordinary course of business).

 

2. Each request by the Borrower to the Lender for an Advance will be made not later than 2:00 P.M. (Central Standard time) one Business Day (as defined below) prior to the date of such proposed Advance. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to rely upon the written instructions of any person identifying himself or herself as an officer of the Borrower who has been disclosed to the Lender in writing as an authorized officer for such purposes upon any signature which the Lender believes to be genuine, and the Borrower shall be bound thereby in the same manner as if such person were authorized or such signature were genuine. Each request will specify (a) the date on which the Borrower wishes the applicable Advance to be made (which shall be a day of the year on which banks are not required or authorized by law to close in the States of Minnesota and New York (“Business Day”), and (b) the amount of such Advance (which will be in the amount of $3,000,000 or, if greater, a multiple of $1,000,000). For each Advance made hereunder, the Lender agrees to make funds available to the Borrower in same day funds by crediting the account specified by the Borrower prior to the making of such Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Lender be obligated to make any requested Advance (w) more than once every 15 days, (x) if the Borrower’s available cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and investments, as reported on its balance sheet in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, is $35,000,000 or greater as of the date of such proposed Advance, (y) at any time when there exists an Event of Default; or (z) at any time

 


when the Borrower’s representations and warranties hereunder are materially untrue. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Lender be obligated to make any requested Advance if such Advance would cause the principal amount of all Advances theretofore made to exceed (or to further exceed) (x) $6,000,000 with respect to any such Advance requested to be made during the month of October, 2005, (y) $12,000,000 with respect to any such Advance requested to be made during the month of November, 2005, and (z) $18,000,000 with respect to any such Advance requested to be made during the month of December, 2005.

 

3. On the Advance Termination Date, accrued interest on the Loan shall be added to the principal balance of the Loan. If not due sooner pursuant to the terms hereof, on December 31, 2006, all amounts owed on the Loan, including principal, interest and fees shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower will repay the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon and any other amounts owed hereunder. The Borrower may prepay the Loan and/or any accrued interest thereon, in whole or in part on any Business Day without premium or penalty, provided that each partial prepayment of principal shall be in an amount of at least $1,000,000.

 

4. Except as provided in Section 3 with respect to prepayments of accrued interest, the Borrower will pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan until the Loan is paid in full at a rate equal to fourteen percent (14%) per annum, payable in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month (commencing on January 1, 2006) and on the maturity of the Loan. The Borrower also shall pay interest on any overdue installment of principal from the due date thereof until paid at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the interest rate set forth above, which interest shall be payable upon demand. No provision of this Agreement or the Note shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the rate permitted by applicable law.

 

5. The Borrower will make each payment (whether in respect of principal, interest or otherwise) hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 2:00 P.M. (Central Standard time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Lender at 5775 West Old Shakopee Road, Suite 100, Bloomington, Minnesota 55437 in same day funds. All computations of interest will be made by the Lender on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Whenever any payment hereunder is stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time will in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest. Principal, interest and fees owed under this Agreement and the Note are payable in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds. All payments hereunder or under the Note shall be applied initially against accrued interest and thereafter in reduction of principal. If the Loan, the Note or any payment required to be made thereunder is not paid on the due date (whether at original maturity or following acceleration), the Borrower shall, in addition to any other rights it may have under this

Section 6. Further Assurances; Attorney-in-Fact.

 

6(a) The Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the Security Interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral (but any failure to request or assure that the Grantor execute and deliver such instrument or documents or to take such action shall not affect or impair the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of this Agreement and the Security Interest, regardless of whether any such item was or was not executed and delivered or action taken in a similar context or on a prior occasion). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor will, promptly and from time to time at the request of the Secured Party execute and file such Financing Statements or continuation statements in respect thereof, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as

may be necessary or desirable, or as the Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect, preserve, and enhance the Security Interest granted or purported to be granted hereby.

 

6(b) The Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file one or more Financing Statements or continuation statements in respect thereof, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of the Grantor where permitted by law.

If the Grantor at any time fails to perform or observe any of the foregoing agreements, the Secured Party shall have (and the Grantor hereby grants to the Secured Party) the right, power and authority (but not the duty) to perform or observe such agreement on behalf and in the name, place and stead of the Grantor (or, at the Secured Party’s option, in the Secured Party’s name) and to take any and all other actions which the Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary to cure or correct such failure; provided that the Secured Party has requested the Grantor to take such action in instances, and Grantor has failed to do so within a reasonable period of time following such request; provided further, however, that where the Secured Party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that any action hereunder must be taken in a timely manner that does not permit such notice, such notice need not be provided. The Grantor shall thereupon pay to the Secured Party on demand the amount of all monies expended and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Secured Party in connection with or as a result of the performance or observance of such agreements or the taking of such action by the Secured Party, together with interest thereon from the date expended or incurred at the highest lawful rate then applicable to any of the Obligations, and all such monies expended, costs and expenses and interest thereon shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Security Interest.

As additional security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, the Grantor hereby assigns to the Secured Party any and all monies (including proceeds of insurance and refunds of unearned premiums) due or to become due under, and all other rights of the Grantor with respect to, any and all policies of insurance now or at any time hereafter covering the Collateral or any evidence thereof or any business records or valuable papers pertaining thereto.

 

Section 13. The Secured Party’s Duties. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.

Section 14. Default. Each of the following occurrences shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement: (a) the Grantor shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement applicable to the Grantor under this Agreement and such failure shall remain uncured 15 days after the Secured Party shall have given the Grantor notice thereof; or (b) any representation or warranty made by the Grantor in this Agreement or any schedule, exhibit, supplement or attachment hereto or in any financial statements, or reports or certificates heretofore or at any time hereafter submitted by or on behalf of the Grantor to the Secured Party shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect sdwhen made; or (c) any Event of Default shall occur under the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 15. Remedies on Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter, the Secured Party may exercise and enforce any and all rights and remedies available upon default to a secured party under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of New York.

The Grantor will pay or reimburse the Secured Party on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including in each case all filing and recording fees and taxes and all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and of any experts and agents) incurred by the Secured Party in connection with the enforcement of the Security Interest and the enforcement of this Agreement, and all such costs and expenses shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Security Interest. The Grantor shall indemnify and hold the Secured Party harmless from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) growing out of or resulting from this Agreement and the Security Interest hereby created (including enforcement of this Agreement) or the Secured Party’s actions pursuant hereto, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any liability of the Grantor to indemnify and hold the Secured Party harmless pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Security Interest. The obligations of the Grantor under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

9


Section 17. Waivers; Remedies; Marshalling. This Agreement can be waived, modified, amended, terminated or discharged, and the Security Interest can be released, only explicitly in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. A waiver so signed shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. Mere delay or failure to act shall not preclude the exercise or enforcement of any rights and remedies available to the Secured Party. All rights and remedies of the Secured Party shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly in any order or sequence, or concurrently, at the Secured Party’s option, and the exercise or enforcement of any such right or remedy shall neither be a condition to nor bar the exercise or enforcement of any other. The Grantor hereby waives all requirements of law, if any, relating to the marshalling of assets which would be applicable in connection with the enforcement by the Secured Party of its remedies hereunder, absent this waiver.

 

Section 18. Notices. Any notice or other communication to any party in connection with this Agreement shall be given in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 19. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall (a) create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the Obligations and the expiration of the obligations, if any, of the Secured Party to extend credit accommodations to the Grantor, (b) be binding upon the Grantor, its successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Secured Party and its successors, transferees, and assigns.

 

Section 20. Termination of Security Interest. Upon payment in full of the Obligations and the expiration of any obligation of the Secured Party to extend credit accommodations to the Grantor, the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate. Upon any such termination, the Secured Party will return to the Grantor such of the Collateral then in the possession of the Secured Party as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof and execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Any reversion or return of Collateral upon termination of this Agreement and any instruments of transfer or termination shall be at the expense of the Grantor and shall be without warranty by, or recourse on, the Secured Party except for (a) any breach of the Secured Party’s standard of care established hereunder, and (b) title defects, encumbrances and similar matters created by the Secured Party. As used in this Section, “Grantor” includes any assigns of Grantor, any Person holding a subordinate security interest in any of the Collateral or whoever else may be lawfully entitled to any part of the Collateral.

Section 21. Governing Law and Construction. THE VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE MANDATORILY GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 22. Consent to Jurisdiction. AT THE OPTION OF THE SECURED PARTY, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY FEDERAL COURT OR MINNESOTA STATE COURT SITTING IN HENNEPIN COUNTY; AND THE GRANTOR CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY SUCH COURT AND WAIVES ANY ARGUMENT THAT VENUE IN SUCH FORUMS IS NOT CONVENIENT. IN THE EVENT THE GRANTOR COMMENCES ANY ACTION IN ANOTHER JURISDICTION OR VENUE UNDER ANY TORT OR CONTRACT THEORY ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM THE RELATIONSHIP CREATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE SECURED PARTY AT ITS OPTION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO HAVE THE CASE TRANSFERRED TO ONE OF THE JURISDICTIONS AND VENUES ABOVE-DESCRIBED, OR IF SUCH TRANSFER CANNOT BE ACCOMPLISHED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, TO HAVE SUCH CASE DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

 

Section 23. Waiver of Notice and Hearing. THE GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A JUDICIAL HEARING OF ANY KIND PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY THE SECURED PARTY OF ITS RIGHTS TO POSSESSION OF THE COLLATERAL WITHOUT JUDICIAL PROCESS OR OF ITS RIGHTS TO REPLEVY, ATTACH, OR LEVY UPON THE COLLATERAL WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE OR HEARING. THE GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN ADVISED BY COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE WITH RESPECT TO THIS PROVISION AND THIS AGREEMENT.

EXHIBIT C TO LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT

 

TERM SHEET

 

(Security Agreement and Intercreditor Agreement)

 

Scope of Lender Security Interest:

 

    To secure the payment and performance of Borrower’s obligations under the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note, Borrower and its subsidiaries (as applicable) shall grant to Lender a first priority security interest in (a) the NAALADase Inhibitor Compounds and PARP Inhibitor Compounds, and (b) Aquavan IP and related assets (but excluding in each case any collateral in which Paul Capital has a security interest).

 

Terms of Intercreditor Agreement:

 

    All present and future obligations of Borrower to Lender under the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note (the “Lender Obligations”) shall be subordinate to all present and future obligations of Borrower and Artery, LLC (“Artery”) to Paul Capital (the “Paul Capital Obligations”), with the effect that – except for periodic interest payments in accordance with the terms of the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note (provided no default with respect to the Paul Capital Obligations has occurred) – there can be no payment of (or demand for the payment of) any of the Lender Obligations so long as any of the Paul Capital Obligations are outstanding.

 

    In accordance with the foregoing point, in the event of an exercise of the Gliadel put right as provided in Section 12 of the Line of Credit Agreement, the Put Price would be applied first to satisfy the Paul Capital Obligations, then to the Lender Obligations, and then to Borrower. Without limitation of the foregoing, no crediting of the Put Price may be made against any of the Lender Obligations unless and until all of the Paul Capital Obligations have been repaid in full.

 

    The Intercreditor Agreement shall contain customary receipt-in-trust/turn over provisions for payments made in violation of the debt subordination terms.

 

    The Intercreditor Agreement shall contain customary bankruptcy protection provisions in favor of Paul Capital (i.e., all distributions that might otherwise be paid on the Lender Obligations are payable to Paul Capital until the Paul Capital Obligations are paid in full; Paul Capital to be authorized to make all claims, etc. for distributions in the bankruptcy proceedings).

 

    To the extent the Lender security interests encumber any property in which Paul Capital has a security interest, the Lender security interest is subordinate to Paul Capital.

 


    Until such time as the Paul Capital Obligations have been paid in full, there can be no action to enforce any of the Lender security interests.

 

    So long as any of the Paul Capital Obligations remain outstanding, without the prior written consent of Paul Capital none of the Line of Credit Agreement, the Note or the Security Agreement may be amended in a manner which could reasonably be considered to be adverse to the interests of Paul Capital.

 

    Miscellaneous Matters:

 

    In the event of a sale of the product currently known and marketed as Aggrastat® and related assets and a partial repayment of the Paul Capital Obligations, the agreement between Borrower, Artery and Paul Capital relating to such sale and repayment (which has not otherwise been negotiated) shall provide that following the consummation of the proposed merger transaction between Lender and Borrower, the remaining Paul Capital Obligations may be prepaid without premium or penalty by Lender.

 

    Lender, Borrower and Paul Capital shall act reasonably and in good faith to cause a definitive Intercreditor Agreement memorializing the above terms and containing the consent of Paul Capital to the borrowing under the Line of Credit Agreement (and (as applicable) the other matters contained herein) to be executed as soon as is practicable, but in no event later than October 1, 2005. Without limitation of the foregoing, (a) it shall be a condition to the consent of Paul Capital to the incurrence of debt by Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Line of Credit Agreement that such Intercreditor Agreement shall have been executed and delivered by the parties thereto, and (b) MGI agrees that the Intercreditor Agreement shall contain no terms which are less favorable than the terms outlined in this Term Sheet.

 

    Capitalized terms used in this Term Sheet which are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Line of Credit Agreement.
