Section 7.2 Rights And Remedies.

Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender may at any time thereafter exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers or remedies:

7.2.1 Acceleration.

The Lender may declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Documents to the contrary, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or of dishonor, or other notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby waives. THE OCCURRENCE OR NON-OCCURRENCE OF A DEFAULT OR AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS SHALL IN NO WAY AFFECT OR CONDITION THE LENDER’S RIGHT TO IMMEDIATE PAYMENT AT ANY TIME OF ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS WHICH ARE PAYABLE ON DEMAND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT A DEFAULT OR AN EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED.

7.2.2 Further Advances.

The Lender may from time to time without notice to the Borrower suspend, terminate or limit any further loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement and under any of the other Financing Documents. Further, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default with respect to any event specified in clause (g) or clause (h) of , or (e) or (f) of Section 7.1.2 (Boston Scientific Specific Events of Default), any commitment of the Lender to make advances under the Loans and any agreement in any of the Financing Documents to provide additional credit shall immediately and automatically terminate and, subject to the provisions of 7.1.2 (Boston Scientific Specific Events of Default) solely with regards to clause (e) or (f) of such Section, the unpaid principal amount of Note (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations then outstanding, shall immediately become due and payable without further action of any kind and without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

7.2.3 Uniform Commercial Code.

The Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable Laws. Upon demand by the Lender, the Borrower shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Lender, at a place designated by the Lender. The Lender or its agents may without notice from time to time enter upon the Borrower’s premises to take possession of the Collateral, to remove it, to render it unusable, to process it or otherwise prepare it for sale, or to sell or otherwise dispose of it.

Any written notice of the sale, disposition or other intended action by the Lender with respect to the Collateral which is sent by regular mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at the address the Borrower which may from time to time be shown on the Lender’s records, at least ten (10) days prior to such sale, disposition or other action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to the Borrower. The Lender may alternatively or additionally give such notice in any other commercially reasonable manner. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Lender to give any notice not required by applicable Laws.

If any consent, approval, or authorization of any state, municipal or other governmental department, agency or authority or of any person, or any person, corporation, partnership or other entity having any interest therein, should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, the Borrower agrees to execute all such applications and other instruments, and to take all other action, as may be required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization.

The Borrower recognizes that the Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral consisting of securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other applicable federal and state Laws. The Lender may, therefore, in its discretion, take such steps as it may deem appropriate to comply with such Laws and may, for example, at any sale of the Collateral consisting of securities restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intention, including, without limitation, a requirement that the Persons making such purchases represent and agree to the satisfaction of the Lender that they are purchasing such securities for their account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale of any thereof. The Borrower covenants and agrees to do or cause to be done promptly all such acts and things as the Lender may request from time to time and as may be necessary to offer and/or sell the securities or any part thereof in a manner which is valid and binding and in conformance with all applicable Laws. Upon any such sale or disposition, the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral consisting of securities so sold.

7.2.4 Specific Rights With Regard to Collateral.

In addition to all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or as shall exist at law or in equity from time to time, the Lender may (but shall be under no obligation to), without notice to the Borrower, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and without notice to the Borrower:

29 (a) request any account debtor obligated on any of the Accounts to make payments thereon directly to the Lender, with the Lender taking control of the cash and non-cash proceeds thereof;

(b) compromise, extend or renew any of the Collateral or deal with the same as it may deem advisable;

(c) make exchanges, substitutions or surrenders of all or any part of the Collateral;

(d) copy, transcribe, or remove from any place of business of the Borrower all books, records, ledger sheets, correspondence, invoices and documents, relating to or evidencing any of the Collateral or without cost or expense to the Lender, make such use of the Borrower’s place(s) of business as may be reasonably necessary to administer, control and collect the Collateral;

(e) repair, alter or supply goods if necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any account debtor;

(f) demand, collect, receipt for and give renewals, extensions, discharges and releases of any of the Collateral;

(g) institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, any of the Collateral;

(h) settle, renew, extend, compromise, compound, exchange or adjust claims in respect of any of the Collateral or any legal proceedings brought in respect thereof;

(j) notify the Post Office authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to the Borrower to such address or Post Office Box as the Lender may designate and receive and open all mail addressed to the Borrower; and

(k) take any other action necessary or beneficial to realize upon or dispose of the Collateral or to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

7.2.5 Protection of Collateral.

The Borrower agrees that the Lender may at any time take such steps as the Lender deems reasonably necessary to protect the Lender’s interest in, and to preserve the Collateral, including, without limitation, the hiring of such security guards, the placing of other security protection measures, and otherwise restricting access to owned or leased locations where Collateral is located, all as the Lender deems appropriate from time to time, may employ and maintain at any of the Borrower’s premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect the Lender’s interests in the Collateral and may lease warehouse facilities to which the Lender may move all or any part of the Collateral to the extent commercially reasonable. The Borrower agrees to cooperate fully with the Lender’s efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such actions to preserve the Collateral as the Lender may reasonably direct. All of the Lender’s expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any reasonable expenses relating to the compensation and bonding of a custodian, shall be part of the Enforcement Costs.

7.2.6 Application of Proceeds.

Any proceeds of sale or other disposition of the Collateral will be applied by the Lender to the payment of any and all Enforcement Costs, taxes, and fees owed to the Lender, and any balance of such proceeds will be applied by the Lender to the payment of the balance of the Obligations in such order and manner of application as the Lender may from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion determine. If the sale or other disposition of the Collateral fails to fully satisfy the Obligations, the Borrower shall remain liable to the Lender for any deficiency.

7.2.7 Performance by Lender.

If the Borrower shall fail to pay the Obligations or otherwise fail to perform, observe or comply with any of the conditions, covenants, terms, stipulations or agreements contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, the Lender without notice to or demand upon the Borrower and without waiving or releasing any of the Obligations or any Event of Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of the Borrower, and may enter upon the premises of the Borrower for that purpose and take all such action thereon as the Lender may consider necessary or appropriate for such purpose and the Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact to do so, with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and without notice to the Borrower. All sums so paid or advanced by the Lender together with interest thereon from the date of payment, advance or incurring until paid in full at a per annum rate of interest equal at all times to the default rate of interest permitted under any promissory note at any time evidencing any of the Obligations and designated by the Lender, and all costs and expenses, shall be paid by the Borrower to the Lender on demand, and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations.

7.2.8 Collateral Account

The Borrower will deposit, or cause to be deposited, all cash, checks, drafts and other Items of Payment, and other proceeds of the Collateral to the Collateral Account. Each deposit shall be made not later than the next Business Day after the date of receipt of the Items of

Payment. The Borrower shall direct any and all Account Debtors who make payment by federal wire transfer or other electronic means to make such payment directly to the Collateral Account. The Items of Payment shall be deposited in precisely the form received, except for the endorsements of the Borrower where necessary to permit the collection of any such Items of Payment, which endorsement the Borrower hereby agrees to make. In the event the Borrower fails to do so, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to make the endorsement in the name of the Borrower. Prior to such a deposit, the Borrower will not commingle any Items of Payment with any of the Borrower’s other funds or property, but will hold them separate and apart in trust and for the account of the Lender.

In the event Items of Payment are returned to the Lender for any reason whatsoever, the Lender may, in the exercise of its discretion from time to time, forward such Items of Payment a second time. Any returned Items of Payment shall be charged back to the Collateral Account and any credit given the Borrower with respect thereto shall be reversed.

The Lender will apply the whole or any part of the collected funds credited to the Collateral Account against the Obligations, the order and method of such application to be in the sole discretion of the Lender.

7.2.9 Lockbox

If so directed by the Lender, the Borrower shall direct the mailing of all Items of Payment from its account debtors to a post-office box designated by the Lender or to such other additional or replacement post-office boxes pursuant to the requirements of the Lender from time to time and to which the Lender shall have unrestricted and exclusive access (collectively, the “Lockbox”). The Lender shall deposit in the Collateral Account items of payment received in the Lockbox.

7.2.10 Other Remedies.

The Lender may from time to time proceed to protect or enforce its rights by an action or actions at law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Documents, or for an injunction against the violation of any of the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, or in aid of the exercise or execution of any right, remedy or power granted in this Agreement, the Financing Documents, and/or applicable Laws. The Lender is authorized to offset and apply to all or any part of the Obligations all moneys, credits and other property of any nature whatsoever of the Borrower now or at any time hereafter in the possession of, in transit to or from, under the control or custody of, or on deposit with, the Lender.

Each and every right granted to the Lender under any Financing Document, or allowed it by law or equity shall be cumulative of each other and may be exercised in addition to any and all other rights of the Lender, and no delay in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The Borrower expressly waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, including but not limited to notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration.
