RECITALS

WHEREAS, Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent are parties to the Facility Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Borrower has advised the Agent that the Borrower expects that the financial statements to be attached to the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2020 will include a statement in the footnotes thereto that indicates there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of such financial statements;

WHEREAS, as a result of such statement in the 10-Q, the Company shall have failed to comply with Section 5.1(aa) of the Facility Agreement and accordingly, as of the date such Form 10-Q is filed (the “Default Date”), an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing pursuant to Section 5.4(b) of the Facility Agreement (the “Reporting Default”);

WHEREAS, as a result of the foregoing circumstances, an event of default shall also occur and be continuing under the ABL Credit Agreement, and accordingly an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing pursuant to Section 5.4(h) of the Facility Agreement (the “Cross Default” and, collectively with the Reporting Default, the “Specified Defaults”);

WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that during the Forbearance Period (as hereinafter defined), the Agent and the Lenders party hereto (sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Lender Party,” and collectively as the “Lender Parties”) agree to forbear from exercising any of their Default or Event of Default related rights and remedies against Borrower and the other Loan Parties solely with respect to the Specified Defaults in accordance herewith that would otherwise be exercisable by the Lender Parties but for this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender Parties are willing to agree to such a forbearance but only on the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Confirmation by Borrower of Specified Defaults. Borrower and each other Loan Party each acknowledges and agrees that the Specified Defaults shall constitute Events of Defaults on the Default Date under Sections 5.4(b) and 5.4(h) of the Facility Agreement, and (ii)


no Events of Default or Defaults (other than the Specified Defaults) have occurred and are continuing as of the date hereof.

SECTION 2. Amounts Owing. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof, the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Facility Agreement is $174,083,043, plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon. Such Obligations, together with all other outstanding Obligations owing pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, including interest, fees, expenses and other charges, are validly owing and are not subject to any right of offset, deduction, claim, or counterclaim in favor of any Loan Party.

SECTION 3. Forbearance; Forbearance Default Rights and Remedies.

(e)    This Agreement is limited in nature and nothing contained herein is intended, or shall be deemed or construed, to (i) constitute a waiver of any Specified Default or any existing or future Defaults or Events of Default (including any Event of Default arising from the Specified Defaults) or compliance with any term or provision of the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, (ii) establish a custom or course of dealing between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Agent and/or any Lender Party, on the other hand, or (iii) waive, alter or impair the obligations or any of the rights or remedies of the Agent or the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.

(f)    For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, to the extent that the Facility Agreement or any other Loan Document prohibits, restricts or limits the use of or reliance on any “basket” by any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or includes any other limitation, restriction or prohibition on certain actions or inactions that may be taken or omitted or otherwise acquiesced to by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to the Facility Agreement or any other Loan Document, then, notwithstanding the forbearance provided herein with respect to the Specified Defaults, such prohibition, restriction or limitation shall continue to apply during the Forbearance Period and thereafter so long as the Specified Defaults or any other Default or Event of Default exists, and nothing herein shall be construed as permitting the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries to take any action that is not permitted to be taken, or have any right not allowed, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents.

(g)    The Borrower and certain of the Loan Parties have the following bank accounts that are no longer in use: (i) account ending in 5279 at Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in the name of Endologix, Inc.; (ii) account ending in 5311 at Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in the name of Endologix, Inc.; (iii) account ending in 8640 at SVB Bank in the name of Trivascular, Inc.; (iv) account ending in 8709 at SVB Bank in the name of Trivascular, Inc.; and (v) account ending in 7400 at SVB Bank in the name of Trivascular Sales LLC (collectively, the “Bank Accounts”).

SECTION 4. Effect of Forbearance. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is a Loan Document. Except as expressly stated herein, the provisions of the Facility Agreement and the other Loan Documents have not been modified except as expressly set forth herein, are and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and shall constitute and remain as the legal, valid, binding, and enforceable obligations of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. The parties hereto agree that the running of all statutes of limitation and the doctrine of laches applicable to all claims or causes of action that the Agent and/or any Lender may be entitled to take or bring in order to enforce its rights and remedies against the Borrower and/or any Loan Party are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, tolled and suspended during the Forbearance Period.

SECTION 5. Covenants. Each of the Loan Parties hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

On each Friday thereafter, beginning with Friday, May 15, 2020, during the period prior to the Forbearance Termination Date, Borrower shall deliver to Agent a report reconciling the actual performance for the week ending the preceding Friday with the projected performance pursuant to the previous week’s Budget, which report shall include (1) a calculation of the variance between actual and projected cash receipts and disbursements, (2) a narrative description of any material variances from, or changes to, the Budget, (3) the aggregate amount of payments made during such period and (4) the aggregate book cash balance of the Borrower and Subsidiaries as of the close of such period, in each case, in form and detail certified by the Borrower’s financial advisor and reasonably acceptable to Agent.
