NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1.Section 1.1 of the Agreement is amended by adding the following defined term in its appropriate alphabetical order:
“ ‘Sixth Amendment Date’ means December 20, 2012.’’
2.Section 1.1 of the Agreement is amended by amending the following terms in their entirety to read as follows:
“ ‘Adjusted Net Worth’ means at any date as of which the amount thereof shall be determined, the sum of (i) shareholders equity, as determined in accordance with GAAP, including the capital stock, partnership interest or limited liability company interest of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, plus (ii) Subordinated Debt consisting of those certain convertible subordinated notes issued by Parent or LDR Medical, S.A.S. under the terms of a Note Purchase Agreement dated April 25, 2012 among Parent, LDR Medical, S.A.S., and the investors signatory thereto (‘2012 Subordinated Debt’) plus (x) the non cash liability associated with the fair value of the Escalate Capital warrants issued by Parent, (y) the non-cash impact of accounting for convertible notes, and (z) the non-cash impact of deferred taxes, determined in accordance with GAAP. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that Adjusted Net worth shall not include any Subordinated Debt owing by any borrower to Escalate Capital.”
“ ‘Borrowing Base’ means an amount equal to (i) eighty percent (80%) of Eligible Accounts (‘Eligible A/R Amount’), plus (ii) forty percent (40%) of Eligible Inventory, plus (iii) the Non-Formula Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Advances made with respect to Eligible Inventory shall not exceed the lesser of (a) Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($9,500,000) and (b) the Eligible A/R Amount. Bank may change the foregoing advance rates by giving Spine LDR thirty (30) days prior written notice based on the results of audits of the Collateral.”
“ ‘Non-Formula Amount’ means: (i) from the Sixth Amendment Date through and including December 31, 2013, Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000), and (ii) from January 1, 2014 and thereafter, Zero Dollars ($0.00).”
3.The following Section 2.5(e) is added to the Agreement immediately following the existing Section 2.5(d):
“(e) Deferred Amendment Fee. On the earlier to occur of (i) the Revolving Maturity Date or acceleration (whether voluntary or otherwise) of the Revolving Line and (ii) the date on which any Borrower
has an initial public offering or raises equity in an amount sufficient to Bank, a fee equal to Seventy Thousand Dollars ($70,000), which fee shall be nonrefundable.”
4.Exhibit C attached to the Agreement is replaced in its entirety with Exhibit C attached to this Amendment.
5.No course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance by either Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.
6.Unless otherwise defined, all capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.
7.Each Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Amendment except to the extent such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
8.As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:
(a) this Amendment, duly executed by Borrowers;
(b) Affirmation of Subordination Agreement dated as of the date hereof, duly executed by Escalate Capital I, L.P. and Escalate Capital Partners SBIC I, L.P.;
