SECOND ADDENDUM TO CLIENTS AGREEMENT
This Second Addendum (this Second Addendum) is attached to, incorporated by reference into and is fully a part of the Clients Agreement (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Clients Agreement) between UBS Financial Services Inc. (UBS Financial Services) and the party signing this Second Addendum as Client where indicated below (the Client) with respect to the Account. Any conflict between the terms of the Clients Agreement and this Second Addendum shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of this Second Addendum. Defined terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Clients Agreement unless otherwise defined in this Second Addendum.
UBS Financial Services and the Client acknowledge and agree that:
1. | The Clients Agreement is amended by adding the following at the end of Section 12: |
I expressly agree that your right to liquidate any account of mine if in your discretion you consider it necessary for your protection to do so shall include, without limitation, the right to liquidate any such account in the event of a breach by me of any provision of this or any other agreement with you or your affiliates or as a result of my insolvency. I further agree that in the event you determine to liquidate any property credited to any of my accounts, you shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have the right to do so in any manner, including, without limitation, the sale of my property individually or in a block, for cash or for credit, in a public or private sale, with or without public notice, through the use of sealed bids or otherwise, with the aid of any advisor or agent who may be your affiliate or in any other manner as you in your sole discretion shall choose. I acknowledge that the price you obtain for my property in your chosen method of sale may be lower than might be otherwise obtained in another method of sale, and I hereby agree that any such sale shall not be considered to be not commercially reasonable solely because of such lower price. I understand that there may not be a liquid market for the property in my accounts and that, as a result, the price received for my property upon your liquidation may be substantially less than I paid for such property or than the last market value available for it, if any. I further agree that any sale by you shall not be considered to be not commercially reasonable solely because there are few (including only one) or no third parties who submit bids or otherwise offer to buy my property. I understand that your sale of any of the property in my accounts may be subject to various state and federal property and/or securities laws and regulations, and that compliance with such laws and regulations may result in delays and/or a lower price being obtained for my property. I agree that you shall have the right to restrict any prospective purchasers to those who, in your sole discretion, you deem to be qualified. I acknowledge that you shall have sole authority to determine, without limitation, the time, place, method of advertisement and manner of sale and that you may delay or adjourn any such sale in your sole discretion. I expressly authorize you to take any action with respect to my property as you deem necessary or advisable to facilitate any liquidation, and I agree that you shall not be held liable for taking or failing to take any such action, regardless if a greater price may have been obtained for my property if such action was or was not taken, as applicable. I
hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any legal right of appraisal, notice, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption that I would otherwise have with respect to a sale of my property.
2. | The Clients Agreement is amended by adding the following at the end of Section 7: |
I also hereby grant you a lien on my right to receive proceeds under any loan or financing agreement entered into subsequent to the date hereof or under any issuance of shares by me subsequent to the date hereof under an initial public offering I may undertake. I agree to promptly notify you about the occurrence of or my intention to conduct any transaction contemplated by the prior sentence.
3. | The Clients Agreement is amended by adding the following as Section 27: |
I understand, acknowledge and agree that you shall have no obligation to extend any further credit to me.

Dear Sir/Madam:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Client Agreement (the Credit Agreement) dated as of March 24, 2008 by and between UBS Financial Services, Inc. (the Lender) and Cardiovascular Systems Inc (the Borrower) and any and all agreements and documents related thereto, including without limitation, any and all pledge agreements, guaranties and/or other similar agreements (any and all such agreements and documents, together with the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents).
The Borrower wishes to enter into a credit facility with UBS Bank USA and/or one or more of its affiliates (collectively UBS) and in connection therewith, wishes to pledge and grant a security interest in a securities account with UBS Financial Services Inc. bearing account number CP-03041-2F and any and all securities and other assets held therein (collectively, the Proposed Collateral). The foregoing credit facility and pledge and grant to UBS of a security interest in the Proposed Collateral is individually and collectively referred to herein as the Proposed Loan.
We understand that the consummation of all or certain aspects of the Proposed Loan could potentially violate certain terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, unless the Borrower obtains the Lenders consent thereto and/or waiver thereof. Accordingly, by signing below and returning a counterpart of this letter to UBS at the address above, you indicate: (a) your consent to the Proposed Loan, including, without limitation, the pledge of and grant of a security interest in the Proposed Collateral by the Borrower to UBS; (b) your waiver of any terms or conditions of the Loan Documents which may restrict or limit the Borrowers ability to (i) incur any debt, obligations or liabilities other than those specified in the Loan Documents or (ii) pledge, assign, grant a security interest in, or otherwise encumber any of the Proposed Collateral; (c) your acknowledgement and agreement that the Proposed Collateral does not form any part of the collateral securing the Borrowers obligations under the Loan Documents; (d) your acknowledgement and agreement that the Borrower is not in default under any of the Loan Documents and that there are no existing or claimed conditions which with the passage of time would constitute a default by the Company under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Proposed Loan or, to the extent that the Proposed Loan may constitute an event of default under the Loan Documents, your waiver of any such event of default); and (e) your acknowledgement and confirmation that the Lender has not heretofore assigned, transferred, sold, hypothecated or pledged the Lenders interest in the Loan Documents.
