For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person should be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

WHAT THE PARTIES AGREE TO FINANCE; DESIGNATION OF LEAD BORROWER

 

Provided that the conditions in Sections 4 and 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement are met, each Lender (severally and not jointly or jointly and severally) will lend to You the Parts of the Commitment Amount specified for such Lender as reflected in the Table of Terms (if any) and You agree to use such proceeds to finance any of Your working capital and general corporate needs. Lenders will lend to You advances (each an “Advance”) in minimum amounts as set forth in the Table of Terms up to a maximum of the Commitment Amount for each Part as provided in the Table of Terms; provided that each Lender’s funding obligation with respect to any Advance (x) shall be several and not joint or joint and several, (y) shall be in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof, and (z) shall not exceed the then remaining unfunded amount of such Lender’s individual Commitment Amount for the applicable Part as provided in the Table of Terms. Each Lender’s obligation to fund Advances under each Part of the Commitment Amount under this Agreement will end on the last day of the Availability Period noted in the Table of Terms for such Part.

FORGEROCK US, INC., FORGEROCK LIMITED and any Person that executes a Joinder Agreement to become a borrower under this Agreement hereby designates FORGEROCK, INC. as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of giving and receiving all Advance Requests and all other notices and consents under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Person that executes a Joinder Agreement to become a borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. FORGEROCK, INC. hereby accepts such appointment. We may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document from FORGEROCK, INC. as a notice or communication from all of You, and may give any notice or communication required or permitted to be given to any of You hereunder to FORGEROCK, INC. on behalf of each of You. Each of You agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on Your behalf by FORGEROCK, INC. shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by each of You and shall be binding upon and enforceable against each of You to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by each of You.

2.

YOU WILL ENTER INTO MULTIPLE PROMISSORY NOTES

 

The Plain English Promissory Note in the form of Exhibit A (the “Promissory Note”) is the document You will enter into in favor of each Lender each time an Advance is to be funded (it being understood that separate Promissory Notes will be issued to each Lender with respect to each Advance). The Promissory Note will contain the specific financial terms of the Advance (e.g., amount funded, interest rate, maturity date, Advance Date, payment due dates etc.) and all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement are incorporated in and made a part of each Promissory Note. There may be multiple Promissory Notes associated with this Agreement.

 

 

3.

YOUR LOAN FACILITY COMMITMENT AMOUNT MAY BE DIVIDED INTO PARTS

 

The Commitment Amount and/or its corresponding parts (if any) will be noted in the Table of Terms (“Parts”). For purposes of this Agreement, references to the Commitment Amount shall mean the Part or Parts which are available and in effect. Certain terms or conditions associated with the availability of such Part are listed in the Table of Terms. As to any Part that is available “Upon Request and Additional Approval”, You are required to make a request to utilize that additional Part in writing to Lenders (the “Commitment Increase Request Notice”), prior to Your submission of a corresponding Advance Request. After Lenders’ receipt of the Commitment Increase Request Notice, Lenders will review the information available to them and conduct any legal and business due diligence deemed necessary by them in connection with their attempt to obtain their respective requisite credit approvals and such approval shall be in each Lender’s sole discretion. Each Lender’s agreement to consider providing the additional Part is not, and is not to be construed as, a commitment, offer, or agreement to provide such additional Part.

Part 2 Milestone: The availability of the Part 2 Commitment Amount is subject to evidence reasonably satisfactory to each Lender that You have completed the Part 2 Milestone on or before September 30, 2016.

 

 

4.

HOW WILL YOU REQUEST ADVANCES

 

In addition to the requirements of Section 5 set forth below, You agree to follow the procedures listed below to have Lenders extend an Advance to You:

 

   

You will submit to Us (by facsimile, mail or electronic mail) a completed Advance Request in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B signed by Your Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer. The Advance Request shall be irrevocable.

 

   

Such Advance Request must be submitted and received by Us no later than 5:00 p.m. PT five (5) Business Days prior to the last day of the applicable Availability Period. Any Advance Request submitted after 5:00 p.m. PT shall be considered received the following Business Day.

 

   

Each Advance Request will state a requested funding date that is at least ten (10) Business Days after the date such Advance Request is submitted to Us.

After We check and approve the information You provide in the Advance Request, We will prepare and provide to You Promissory Notes for each Lender and an amortization schedule (consistent with this agreement) for Your approval and signature. Upon receipt of the Promissory Notes signed by Your authorized officer and confirmation by Us that all conditions to funding an Advance have been met, each Lender will then advance its Pro Rata Share of the requested funds to You.

All the terms, conditions, and covenants of this Agreement shall apply to all Advances whether or not each Advance is evidenced by a Promissory Note. You agree that We may rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or Advance Request given by any person We reasonably believe to be Your authorized representative without the necessity of Our conducting an independent investigation, including Your contact person listed in the Table of Terms.

5.

CONDITIONS FOR US TO MAKE LOANS TO YOU

 

Each Lender’s obligation to fund any Advance that You request under this Agreement is subject to satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4 and 18 and each of the following conditions:

 

   

The representations and warranties in this Agreement and in the Warrant Agreement(s) shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date(s) Lenders fund each Advance with the same effect as though they were made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; provided, however, that such materiality qualifiers shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof. Each Advance Request will constitute Your representation and warranty on the relevant Advance Date as to the matters set forth in this paragraph.

 

   

You shall be in compliance with all the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement, each Promissory Note and each other Loan Document, and at the time of and immediately after such Advance, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

   

You shall provide Collateral Agent with all appropriate assignments, notices and control agreements that are requested by us to perfect or maintain Collateral Agent’s first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens that are permitted to be senior in priority hereunder, if any) in all of the Collateral and as required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

   

You shall have paid to each Lender the entire amount of its respective portion of the Facility Fee then due and payable to such Lender as indicated in the Table of Terms relating to the Part under which such Advance is funded.

 

   

No event or circumstance shall exist or have occurred that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

   

You shall have delivered to Us the applicable Warrant Agreement with respect to such Advance.

 

   

We shall have received all of the agreements, documents, instruments and other items set forth in the Schedule of Documents attached hereto as Schedule 2, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Us.

 

   

We shall have received certificates of insurance evidencing Your compliance with Section 10 in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Us.

 

 

6.

YOU MAY PREPAY YOUR PROMISSORY NOTES

 

You may at any time prepay all Promissory Notes with respect to any Advance in full (but not in part), without premium or penalty, by (a) giving five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Us, and (b) by paying: (i) the remaining outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest for such Promissory Note calculated as if the date of such prepayment occurred on the next scheduled monthly payment date per the respective Promissory Note, (ii) the End of Term Payment, (iii) all other outstanding Secured Obligations, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts as of the date of prepayment, and (iv) the Prepayment Fee for such Advance (the amounts payable under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), and (iv) to be paid to each Lender based on its respective Pro Rata Share, and the amounts payable under the foregoing clause (iii) to be paid to each of Us as Our respective interests appear).

 

 

7.

THE MAXIMUM RATE OF INTEREST; DEFAULT RATE

 

Maximum Rate of Interest. It is not Our intent to receive interest at a rate greater than the maximum rate permissible by law, which We shall call the “maximum rate”. If a court determines You have actually paid Us interest based on a rate that exceeds the maximum rate, then We shall apply the excess as follows: first, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Secured Obligations; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of Our accrued but unpaid interest and any other outstanding principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts due and owed by You to Us in respect of the Secured Obligations; and third, after all amounts due and owed by You to Us are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to You.

Default Interest. In the event that You do not pay any unpaid interest when due, delinquent interest shall be added to principal and shall bear interest on interest, compounded at the rate set forth in the Table of Terms. Upon and during the existence of an Event of Default, all principal, interest or other amounts owed by You to Us shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate set forth in the Table of Terms plus five percent (5%) per annum (the “Default Rate”).

 

 

6


You expressly agree that: (A) the Default Rate and the late charges provided for in Section 9 are reasonable and are the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Default Rate and late charges shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) You have received specific consideration in exchange for Your potential future obligation to pay the Default Rate and late charges; (D) You shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 7 and Section 9; (E) Your agreement to pay the Default Rate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and to pay late charges upon a delinquent payment are material inducements to Lenders to loan money to You; and (F) the Default Rate and the imposition of late charges represent a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages to, and increased risk of loss assumed by, Lenders upon an Event of Default or the late payment and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to Lenders or profits lost by Lenders as a result of such event triggering payment of the Default Rate or late charges.

 

 

8.

YOU GRANT US A SECURITY INTEREST

 

Each of You hereby grants to Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Collateral Agent and Lenders (and hereby reaffirms, as more particularly set forth in Section 20, paragraph “Amendment and Restatement; Reaffirmation and Continuation of Liens,” the prior grant to TPVG of), a first priority (subject only to those Permitted Liens that are allowed as first in priority as set forth herein), continuing security interest in and Lien upon all of Your right, title and interest in each of the following whether now owned or hereinafter acquired and wherever located:

All the above listed items will be collectively called the “Collateral”.

Notwithstanding the above, Collateral excludes (i) any lease, license, contract or agreement to which You are a party, in each case, if and only if, and solely to the extent that, the grant of a security interest therein is prohibited by applicable laws, rules or regulations or is prohibited by or shall constitute or result in a breach, termination or default or invalidity thereunder or thereof (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective with respect to the creation of the security interest hereunder pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law or principals of equity); provided that immediately upon the time at which the consequences described in the foregoing clause shall no longer exist, the Collateral shall include, and You shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, all of Your right, title and interest in such lease, license, contract or agreement, (ii) any equity securities in excess of 65% of the equity securities of any Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Material Foreign Subsidiary, and (iii) Intellectual Property currently held or hereafter obtained, but includes Proceeds of Intellectual Property (including but not limited to all Receivables, rights to payment and General Intangibles arising from the sale, licensing or disposition of all or any part of, or rights in, the foregoing); provided, however, other than non-exclusive licenses given in the ordinary course of Your business, in the event any of You transfer, sell, assign, grant a security interest in, hypothecate, permit or suffer to exist any Lien, or otherwise transfer any interest in or encumber any portion of the Intellectual Property, either voluntarily or involuntarily, without Our prior written consent, the Collateral Agent’s security interest shall include (and shall be deemed to have a Lien in such assets included from the Closing Date) all Intellectual Property.

9.

HOW AND WHAT WILL YOU PAY US

 

Payments. The first payment date for each Advance will be the first day of the month following the month in which the Advance was funded, unless that Advance is funded on the first day of that month, in which case the first payment date shall be the Advance Date.

Each Advance shall be due in monthly installments consisting of either (a) that number of months of interest only as indicated in the Table of Terms followed by the remaining monthly installment payments, as indicated in the Table of Terms, of principal and interest, (b) if no interest only payments are indicated in the Table of Terms for such Advance, that number of months as indicated in the Table of Terms for such Advance of monthly installment payments of principal and interest, or (c) that number of months of interest only as indicated in the Table of Terms for such Advance followed by the outstanding principal amount of such Advance due on the last day of the last month of the Loan Term for such Advance. All payments are payable on the first day of each month through the last payment date (unless that date falls on a day that is not a Business Day in which event such payment shall be due on the previous Business Day). The outstanding balance of each Advance shall be due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date (as defined in the applicable Promissory Note for such Advance), if not sooner paid in full.

Interest. The principal balance of each Promissory Note shall accrue interest at the percentage per year as indicated in the Table of Terms, and shall be computed daily on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable, and interest shall accrue in advance from the Advance Date. In the event that the Prime Rate is changed from time to time during the term of this Agreement, the applicable rate of interest for the outstanding principal balance of the Advances shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate.

Interim Payment. In the event an Advance is made on any day other than the first Business Day of the month, You shall make a payment to Us in accordance with Our Pro Rata Share on the Advance Date in an amount equal to the per diem interest for the time from the Advance Date through and including the last day of the month in which the Advance is funded.

Maturity Date Extension.

Fees. You shall pay to Lenders the following fees and expenses:

 

   

Facility Fees. On or before the Original Closing Date or the Closing Date, as applicable, or upon availability of additional Commitment Amounts, as the case may be, the respective Facility Fee as indicated in the Table of Terms. Facility Fees due on the Closing Date shall be deducted from the Advances made on the Closing Date.

 

   

End of Term Payment. Upon the earlier of (a) the expiration of the Loan Term, (b) the date of the final payment of any Advance and (c) the acceleration of the Secured Obligations, the End of Term Payments as indicated in the Table of Terms.

In addition, all reasonable documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with Our annual legal review of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and Collateral.

 

   

Prepayment Fee. An additional prepayment premium (“Prepayment Fee”) shall be payable as follows:

(c) If prepaid after 24 months, no Prepayment Fee shall be due.

With regard to any Advances under the Part 3 Commitment Amount, Part 4 Commitment Amount and Part 5 Commitment Amount:

(a) If prepaid on or before March 25, 2021 or in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, on or before March 25, 2022: 3.0% of the outstanding balance owing under such Promissory Note; and

(b) If prepaid (i) after March 25, 2021, or (ii) in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, after March 25, 2022, or (iii) in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, but such prepayment is in connection with Your initial public offering, no Prepayment Fee shall be due.

With regard to any Advances under the Part 6 Commitment Amount:

(c) If prepaid on or before March 11, 2022 or in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, on or before March 11, 2023: 3.0% of the outstanding balance owing under such Promissory Note; and

(d) If prepaid (i) after March 11, 2022, or (ii) in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, after March 11, 2023, or (iii) in the event the Maturity Date Extension is in effect, but such prepayment is in connection with Your initial public offering no Prepayment Fee shall be due.

Pro Rata Payments. All payments on account of any Advance (whether of principal, interest, interim payment, fees or otherwise) shall be payable to Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares.

Any amounts that You repay on the Advances may not be re-borrowed.

Optional Interest-Only Period. If on or prior to September 30, 2020 (i) You are current on all payments due and payable in respect of all Secured Obligations, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (iii) You have delivered to Us written notice (within 10 days of the first closing of the Qualified Financing Round, as defined below) of Your receipt of gross cash proceeds of at least Seventy Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) (with aggregate proceeds to exclude the amounts that the investors in such financing have committed to invest but have not yet invested and any amounts received upon conversion or cancellation of indebtedness) from the sale and issuance of Your equity securities after the Closing Date, whether in a single or multiple closings in a related financing (the “Qualified Financing Round”), then You may elect to extend the interest-only payments for any outstanding Advances an additional twelve (12) months and the Maturity Date for such Advances shall also be extended by twelve (12) months (the “Maturity Date Extension”). You agree to execute amended and restated promissory notes to reflect any such Maturity Date Extension and extension of the interest only period.

Miscellaneous. Payments are due electronically by automatic debit through Automated Clearing House (ACH) payment on or before the first day of each month. You agree to fill out and execute the electronic funds transfer/automatic debit authorization form that We provide. If We do not receive any payments from You within two (2) Business Days after they are due, You will pay the applicable Person a late charge on the overdue amount. The late charge will be equal to five percent (5%) of the amount due for each month not paid when due and until such time as payment is received. All payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the end that each of Us will receive the entire amount of any Secured Obligations payable to Us under this Agreement, regardless of the source of payment. Any interest not paid when due shall become a part of the Secured Obligations, and such interest shall then accrue interest at the rate then applicable under this Agreement and the applicable Promissory Note.

All such insurance shall be in form, with companies, and in amounts reasonably acceptable to Us (it being acknowledged and agreed that the insurance maintained by You as of the date hereof is acceptable to Us). Such risks shall include the risks of bodily injury, including death, property damage, personal injury,

advertising injury, and contractual liability. You must maintain a minimum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) of commercial general liability insurance for each occurrence. So long as there are any Secured Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification or reimbursement obligations or other obligations which, by their terms, survive termination of this Agreement) outstanding, You shall also carry and maintain insurance upon the Collateral, insuring against all risks of physical loss or damage howsoever caused customarily covered by insurance, in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Collateral.

You shall submit to Us certificates of insurance, which reflect Your compliance with Your insurance obligations in the above paragraph and the obligations contained in this Section. Your insurance certificate shall state that We are an additional insured for commercial general liability, an additional insured and a lender loss payee for all risk property damage insurance. Attached to the certificates of insurance will be additional insured endorsements for liability and lender’s loss payable endorsements for all risk property damage insurance and fidelity insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, You shall have the option of applying the proceeds of any casualty policy up to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) with respect to any loss, but not exceeding One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate for all losses under all casualty policies in any one year, toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property; provided that any such replaced or repaired property (i) shall be of equal or like value as the replaced or repaired Collateral and (ii) shall be deemed Collateral in which We have been granted a first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens that are allowed as first in priority as set forth herein), and (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds payable under such casualty policy shall, at Our option, be payable to Us on account of the Secured Obligations.

The certificates of insurance will state that the coverage evidenced is primary and non-contributory to any insurance or Our self-insurance and will further state that a waiver of subrogation in favor of Us has been agreed to. All certificates of insurance will provide for a minimum of thirty (30) days advance written notice to Us of cancellation. Any failure by Us to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Our rights, all of which are reserved.

YOUR COVENANTS TO US

 

So long as the Secured Obligations have not been Paid in Full or We have any obligation to make Advances, Each of You covenants to the following:

 

   

Legal Existence and Qualification. Each of You will maintain Your, and each of Your Subsidiaries’, legal existence and good standing in Your and their respective jurisdictions of formation or organization, except with respect to Subsidiaries that are dissolved or merged in accordance with this Section 12, Paragraph “Mergers or Acquisitions,” and maintain qualifications to do business in all jurisdictions in which the nature of Your business or location of Your properties require such qualifications and where the failure to be qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

   

Compliance with Laws. Each of You will, and will cause each of Your Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws (including, without limitation, environmental laws) rules and regulations applicable to, and all orders and directives of any governmental or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over, You, Your Subsidiaries or Your business, and with all material agreements to which You or any of Your Subsidiaries are a party, in each case, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of You nor any of Your Subsidiaries shall become an “investment company” or controlled by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or become principally engaged in, or undertake as one of Your

 

12


 

important activities, the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock, or use the proceeds of any loan for such purpose. None of You, nor any Your Subsidiaries shall fail to meet the applicable minimum funding requirements of ERISA, in respect of any of Your plans subject to ERISA, permit a reportable event or prohibited transaction, as defined in ERISA, to occur, or fail to comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act.

 

   

Management Rights. Each of You will permit any of Our authorized representatives and Our attorneys and accountants on reasonable prior written notice to inspect, examine and make copies and abstracts of Your books of account and records at reasonable times and during normal business hours (provided, however, that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, We will not be entitled to more than one (1) such inspection per year). In addition, We and Our agents, attorneys and accountants will have the right to meet with the management and officers of any of You to discuss such books of account and records. In addition, We will be entitled at reasonable times and intervals to consult with and advise the management and officers of any of You concerning significant business issues. Such consultations shall not unreasonably interfere with Your business operations. The Parties intend that the rights granted here shall constitute “management rights” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R Section 2510.3-101(d)(3)(ii), but that any advice, recommendations or participation with respect to any business issues will not be deemed to give Us, nor be deemed an exercise by Us or control over the management or policies of any of You. Further, each Party represents and warrants that each Lender has offered to make available to each of You “significant managerial assistances” (as defined in Section 2(a)(47) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) and, to the extent You accept such offer from any Lender, the scope, terms and conditions of such significant managerial assistance shall be set forth in a separate agreement between You, the applicable Lender and Our administrator.

 

   

Additional Documents and Assurances. Each of You will from time to time execute, deliver and file, alone or with Us, any security agreements, or other documents to perfect or give first priority (subject only to those Permitted Liens that are allowed as first in priority as set forth herein) to Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral. Each of You will from time to time obtain any instruments or documents as We may request, and take all further action that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that We may reasonably request, to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to confirm, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens granted to Collateral Agent hereunder. In addition, each of You authorize Collateral Agent to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that (i) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as all of Your assets or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdiction, and (ii) contain any other information required by the UCC or under the relevant jurisdiction for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether You are an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number (or equivalent information) issued to You, if applicable. Each of You hereby appoint Collateral Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Your name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any Lien regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full. Our foregoing appointment as the attorney in fact for each of You, and all of Our rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Secured Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity or reimbursement obligations or other obligations which, by their terms, survive termination of this Agreement) have been fully repaid and performed and Our obligation to provide Advances terminates.

 

   

Protection of Collateral Agent’s Lien. Each of You will take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to protect and defend Your title to the Collateral and Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral. Each of You shall at all times keep the Collateral, and the assets and properties of each of Your Subsidiaries, free and clear from any legal process or Liens whatsoever (except for Permitted Liens) and shall give Us prompt written notice of any legal process affecting the Collateral or the assets and properties of Your Subsidiaries, or any Liens on the Collateral or the assets and properties of Your Subsidiaries (other than Permitted Liens).

Financial Statements. Each of You will provide monthly and yearly financial statements in accordance with Section 18 of this Agreement, and such financial statements will include reports of any material contingencies (including commencement of any material litigation by or against You) or any other occurrence that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

WHAT HAPPENS UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, We can at Our option (or in the case of the fourth and fifth paragraphs below, Collateral Agent may), without notice to any of You:

 

   

Terminate Our commitment to make any future Advances under this Agreement;

 

   

Terminate Our obligation to permit the principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts owed by You to Us to remain outstanding;

 

   

Recover all sums due and accelerate and demand payment of all or any part of the principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts owed by any of You to Us under the Loan Documents and declare them to be immediately due and payable (provided, that upon the occurrence of a default of the type described in the fourth paragraph of Section 14 (i.e. “Bankruptcy; Attachment; Other”), the Promissory Notes and all of the principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts owed by any of You to Us shall automatically be accelerated and made immediately due and payable, in each case without any further notice or act). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal and accrued interest on the Promissory Notes and advances and all outstanding principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts owed by any of You to Us, including all professional fees and expenses, shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate;

 

   

Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with the account debtors of any of You for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Collateral Agent reasonably considers to be advisable;

 

   

Peaceably enter the premises of any of You, without notice and process of law and in compliance with Your security requirements, to remove and repossess the Collateral without being liable to any of You for damages due to the repossession, except those resulting from Our or Our assignees’ negligence or willful misconduct and charge You for the cost of repossession, storing and shipping the Collateral. With respect to any premises that any of You own, You hereby grant to Collateral Agent a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge by You, in order to exercise any of Our rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise; and

 

   

Pursue any other remedy permitted by law, equity or otherwise.

Collateral Agent may exercise all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise available to it under the UCC and other applicable law, including the right to release, hold, sell, lease, liquidate, collect, realize upon, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral and the right to occupy, utilize, process and commingle the Collateral. Each of You hereby grants to Collateral Agent a license and right, to use, without charge by You, the labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature of any of You, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral. In connection with Our exercise of Our rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each of the rights of any of You under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Our benefit. All Our rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

 

 

18


In addition to the power of attorney granted by each of You to Collateral Agent in Section 12, effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each of You hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral Agent (and any of its designated officers, agents, attorneys or employees) as Your true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Receivables or notify account debtors of its security interest in the Receivables; (b) endorse Your name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into its possession; (c) sign Your name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Receivable, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Receivables, verifications of Receivables, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Your policies of insurance; (f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Collateral Agent determines to be reasonable. Collateral Agent’s appointment as the attorney in fact for each of You, and each and every one of Collateral Agent’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full.

 

 

16.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU ARE IN DEFAULT AND WE EXERCISE OUR REMEDIES

 

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Agent may, at any time or from time to time, apply, collect, liquidate, sell in one or more sales, lease or otherwise dispose of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, in such order as it may elect. Any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at the place of business of any of You or elsewhere. Each of You agrees that any such public or private sale may occur upon Collateral Agent’s ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice to You. Collateral Agent may require any of You to assemble the Collateral and make it available to it at a place it designates that is reasonably convenient to it. The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in the following order of priorities:

First, to Us in an amount sufficient to pay in full Our costs and professionals’ and advisors’ fees and expenses;

Second, to Us in an amount equal to the then unpaid amount of all the principal, interest, fees, costs or other amounts owed by any of You to Us, in such order and priority as We may choose in Our sole discretion (provided that all amounts applied to any category of Secured Obligations relating to the Advances or other amounts that are based on Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares shall be allocated between Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares, and all amounts applied to any other category of Secured Obligations shall be applied pro rata to each of Us based on Our respective portion thereof); and

Finally, after the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations, to any creditor holding a junior Lien on the Collateral, or to any of You or Your representatives or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

 

 

17.

CROSS-GUARANTY

 

Cross-Guaranty. Each of You hereby agrees that You are jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Us and Our respective successors and permitted assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of all Secured Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Us by the other of You. Each of You agrees that Your guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that Your obligations under this Section shall not be discharged until Payment in Full, of the Secured Obligations, and that Your obligations under this Section shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

 

   

the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any of You are or may become a party;

 

   

the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Us with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

 

   

the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect Our Lien against, any security for the Secured Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Us in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

 

19


   

the insolvency of any of You; or

 

   

any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

Each of You shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Secured Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

Waivers. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of You expressly waives all rights any of You may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Us to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Secured Obligations guaranteed hereunder against the other of You, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, You. It is agreed among each of You and Us that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section and such waivers, We would decline to enter into this Agreement.

Benefit of Guaranty. Each of You agrees that the provisions of this Section are for Our benefit and the benefit of Our respective successors, transferees, endorsees and permitted assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Person and Us, the obligations of such Person under the Loan Documents.

Waiver of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth herein, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each of You hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each of You acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Us and shall not limit or otherwise affect Your liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section, and that We and Our respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section.

Election of Remedies. If We may, under applicable law, proceed to realize Our benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Us a Lien upon any Collateral, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, We may, at Our sole option, determine which of Our remedies or rights We may pursue without affecting any of Our rights and remedies under this Section. If, in the exercise of any of Our rights and remedies, We shall forfeit any of Our rights or remedies, including Our right to enter a deficiency judgment against any of You or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each of You hereby consents to such action by Us and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Us shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that any of You might otherwise have had but for such action by Us. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of any right of Ours to seek a deficiency judgment against any of You shall not impair the respective obligations of the rest of You to pay the full amount of the Secured Obligations. In the event We shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, We may bid all or less than the amount of the Secured Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Us but shall be credited against the Secured Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether We are or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Secured Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Secured Obligations guaranteed under this Section, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which We might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, the liability of each of You under this Section (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts for which You are primarily liable under this Agreement) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of: (a) the net amount of the amounts advanced to the other of You under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, the other of You; and (b) the amount that could be claimed by Us from the other of You under this Section without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, Your right of contribution and indemnification from the other of You under this Section.

 

20


Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.

 

   

To the extent that any of You shall make a payment under this Section of all or any of the Secured Obligations (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by such Person, exceeds the amount that such Person would otherwise have paid if each of You had paid the aggregate Secured Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Person’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of all of You as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations, such Person shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, the other of You for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

 

   

As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any of You shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Person under this section without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

 

   

This subsection is intended only to define the relative rights of each of You and nothing set forth in this subsection is intended to or shall impair the obligations of each of You, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including subsection “Cross-Guaranty” above. Nothing contained in this subsection shall limit the liability of any of You to pay the Advances made directly or indirectly to You and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto, for which You shall be primarily liable.

 

   

The Parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Person to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

 

   

The rights of the indemnifying Persons against other Persons under this subsection shall be exercisable upon the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations.

Liability Cumulative. The liability of each of You under this Section is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each of You to Us under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which You are a party or in respect of any Secured Obligations, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

22


Entire Agreement. This Agreement and associated Promissory Notes supersede all other oral or written agreements or understandings between the Parties concerning the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Existing Loan Agreement). ANY AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR A PROMISSORY NOTE MAY ONLY BE ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH A DOCUMENT WITH SIGNATURES FROM EACH OF THE PARTIES TO SUCH DOCUMENT (AND FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ANY AMENDMENT OF ANY PROMISSORY NOTE MUST BE EXECUTED BY THE LENDER TO WHICH SUCH PROMISSORY NOTE WAS ISSUED).

Headings. Headings used in this Agreement are for reference and convenience of the Parties only and shall have no substantive effect in the interpretation of this Agreement.

No Waiver. No action taken by Us or You will be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement or Promissory Note. The waiver by Us of a breach of any provision of this Agreement or a Promissory Note will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

Survival of Obligations. The indemnification obligations contained in this Agreement any Promissory Note or in any document delivered in connection with those agreements are for the benefit of the Parties and survive the execution, delivery, expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Tax Indemnification. Without limiting the generality of Section 13, You agree to pay, and to hold Us harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales, or other similar taxes (excluding taxes imposed on or measured by Our net income or franchise taxes) that may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on each of You and Your permitted assigns (if any). None of You shall assign Your obligations under this Agreement, the Promissory Notes or any of the other Loan Documents without Our express prior written consent, and any such attempted assignment shall be void and of no effect. Each of You acknowledges and understands that We may sell and assign all or part of Our respective interests hereunder and under the Promissory Note(s) and all other related Loan Documents to any person or entity to be known as assignee; provided, however, that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, We shall not assign this Agreement to any direct competitor of Yours (as determined in good faith by Your board of directors). After such assignment the term “We” “Us” and “Our” (and “Lender” if the assignor is assigning any of its interests as a Lender, and “Collateral Agent” if the assignor is the Collateral Agent) as used in the Loan Documents will mean and include such assignee, and such assignee will be vested with all Our rights, powers and remedies hereunder (including, as applicable, as a Lender or as Collateral Agent) and shall have Our duties with respect to the interest that each of You have granted Us (including, as applicable, as a Lender or as Collateral Agent); but with respect to any such interest not so transferred, We shall retain all rights, powers and remedies. No such assignment will relieve any of You of any of Your obligations. We agree that in the event of any transfer of the Promissory Note(s), We will denote on the Promissory Note a notation as to the portion of the principal and interest of the Promissory Note(s), which shall have been paid at the time of such transfer and the date of the transfer.

Consent To Jurisdiction And Venue. All judicial proceedings arising in or under or related to this Agreement, the Promissory Notes or any of the other Loan Documents may be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to personal jurisdiction in San Mateo County, State of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in San Mateo County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement, the Promissory Notes or the other Loan Documents. Service of process on any Party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given in accordance with the requirements for notice set forth in this Section and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth therein. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of either Party to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

 

23


Mutual Waiver Of Jury Trial; Judicial Reference. Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the Parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the Parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH OF THE PARTIES SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY ANY OF YOU AGAINST US OR OUR ASSIGNEE OR BY US OR OUR ASSIGNEE AGAINST ANY OF YOU. IN THE EVENT THAT THE FOREGOING JURY TRIAL WAIVER IS NOT ENFORCEABLE, ALL CLAIMS, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS OF LAW OR FACT RELATING THERETO, SHALL, AT THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, BE DETERMINED BY JUDICIAL REFERENCE PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE (“REFERENCE”). THE PARTIES SHALL SELECT A SINGLE NEUTRAL REFEREE, WHO SHALL BE A RETIRED STATE OR FEDERAL JUDGE. IN THE EVENT THAT THE PARTIES CANNOT AGREE UPON A REFEREE, THE REFEREE SHALL BE APPOINTED BY THE COURT. THE REFEREE SHALL REPORT A STATEMENT OF DECISION TO THE COURT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY AT ANY TIME TO EXERCISE LAWFUL SELF-HELP REMEDIES, FORECLOSE AGAINST COLLATERAL OR OBTAIN PROVISIONAL REMEDIES. THE PARTIES SHALL BEAR THE FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE REFEREE EQUALLY UNLESS THE REFEREE ORDERS OTHERWISE. THE REFEREE SHALL ALSO DETERMINE ALL ISSUES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SECTION. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CLAIMS WILL NOT BE ADJUDICATED BY A JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ALL SUCH CLAIMS, INCLUDING CLAIMS THAT INVOLVE PERSONS OTHER THAN ANY OF YOU AND US; CLAIMS THAT ARISE OUT OF OR ARE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND US; AND ANY CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES, BREACH OF CONTRACT, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, OR ANY EQUITABLE OR LEGAL RELIEF OF ANY KIND, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE EXCLUDED AGREEMENTS.

Professional Fees. Each of You promises to pay or reimburse on demand, any and all reasonable professional fees and expenses incurred by Us whether before or after the execution of this Agreement in connection with or related to: the Loan Documents, the Excluded Agreements, or the Secured Obligations; the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Secured Obligations; amendment or modification of the Loan Documents and the Excluded Agreements; any waiver, consent, release, or termination under the Loan Documents or Excluded Agreements; the protection, preservation, sale, lease, liquidation, inspection, audit or disposition of, or other action related to, the Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral; or any legal, litigation, administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in connection with or related to any of You or the Collateral, and any appeal or review thereof; and any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout, foreclosure, or other action related to any of You, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, or the Excluded Agreements, including representing Us in any adversary proceeding or contested matter commenced or continued by or on behalf of the estate of any of You, and any appeal or review thereof; provided, however, that You shall not be responsible for any fees or expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents on our prior to the Closing Date. Our professional fees and expenses shall include reasonable fees or expenses for Our attorneys, accountants, auditors, auctioneers, liquidators, appraisers, investment advisors, environmental and management consultants, or experts engaged by Us in connection with the foregoing.
