PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
Dated as of November 16, 2007
     In consideration of the purchase of the Bonds (as hereinafter defined) issued under the Indenture by and among Molecular Insight Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, Molecular Insight Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors party from time to time thereto (each a “Pledgor” and collectively the “Pledgors”) hereby agree with The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Collateral Agent, as follows (with certain terms used herein being defined in Article 7):
ARTICLE 1
SECURITY INTEREST
     Section 1.01 Grant of Security Interest. To secure the payment, observance and performance of the Secured Obligations, each Pledgor hereby mortgages, pledges and assigns the Collateral to the Collateral Agent, and grants to the Collateral Agent a continuing and, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement or the Indenture, first priority security interest in, and a continuing lien upon, the Collateral.
     Section 1.02 Validity and Priority of Security Interest. Each Pledgor agrees that (a) the Security Interest shall at all times be valid, perfected and enforceable against such Pledgor and all third parties, in accordance with the terms hereof, as security for the Secured Obligations, and (b) the Collateral shall not, nor shall any financial asset that is the subject of any security entitlement that is Investment Property Collateral, at any time be subject to any Lien, other than a Permitted Lien, that is prior to, on a parity with or junior to such Security Interest, except that, unless an Event of Default exists, this Section 1.02 shall not apply to (i) (A) payments under Payment Rights and Ordinary Distributions that such Pledgor is entitled to, and does, receive and retain, and (B) withdrawals from Bank Accounts that such Pledgor is entitled to make, and makes, pursuant to Section 2.02 (but this Section shall apply to any asset that would otherwise constitute Collateral acquired with such Collateral or its proceeds) and (ii) Collateral disposed of in a disposition that is permitted under the Financing Documents (but this Section shall apply to any asset that would otherwise constitute Collateral acquired with such Collateral or its proceeds).
     Section 1.03 Maintenance of Status of Security Interest, Collateral and Rights.
          (a) Required Action. Each Pledgor shall take all action, including the actions specified on Schedule 1.03, that may be necessary or desirable, or that may be required by applicable law (i) to maintain at all times the validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of the Security Interest in the Collateral in conformity with the requirements of Section 1.02, (ii) to protect and preserve the Collateral at all times and (iii) to protect and preserve, and to enable the exercise or enforcement of, the rights of the Collateral Agent therein and hereunder and under the other Collateral Documents at all times.

 


 

          (b) Authorized Action. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to file one or more financing or continuation statements or amendments thereto without the signature of or in the name of any Pledgor, including the filing of a financing statement describing the Collateral as “all assets”, “all personal property of the Pledgor now owned or hereafter acquired” or “all assets now owned or hereafter acquired by the Pledgor or in which Pledgor otherwise has rights” or words to that effect and will provide copies of such filings within ten (10) Business Days of filing. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any financing statement filed in connection with this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. The filing by the Collateral Agent in good faith of a financing statement which inadvertently covers property that is not Collateral shall nonetheless be deemed an authorized filing; provided however that the Collateral Agent shall correct such filing within ten (10) Business Days after being notified in writing of the error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for the preparing, recording, filing, re-recording, or re-filing of any financing statement, continuation statement or other instrument in any public office.
     Section 1.04 Evidence of Status of Security Interest. Each Pledgor shall at its own expense and from time to time, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent such file search reports from the UCC and other filing and recording offices.
     Section 1.05 Pledgors Remain Obligated; Collateral Agent and Other Secured Parties Not Obligated. The grant by each Pledgor to the Collateral Agent of the Security Interest shall not (a) relieve such Pledgor of any Liability to any Person under or in respect of any of the Collateral or (b) impose on the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties any such Liability or any Liability for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relative thereto.
ARTICLE 2
DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS
     Section 2.01 Rights of Collateral Agent.
          Subject to each Pledgor’s rights under Section 2.02 and except in the case of proceeds of Collateral as to which a different disposition is expressly provided for herein or in any other Financing Document, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive and retain all proceeds of Collateral, including all Extraordinary Distributions. Subject to its rights under Section 2.02, each Pledgor shall, should it receive any such proceeds, hold all such proceeds in trust for the Collateral Agent, not commingle the same with other property or funds of such Pledgor and, unless the Collateral Agent shall have otherwise instructed such Pledgor, deliver the same or cause the same to be delivered in the exact form received, together with any necessary endorsements, to the Collateral Agent or to such Person or Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate. The Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized, either in the name and on behalf of any Pledgor or in its own name, to endorse and deposit, or cause to be deposited, for collection, present, draw upon or under, or otherwise take action to realize upon, all Instruments, Chattel Paper, Securities, Letters of Credit and Documents that are Collateral for the purpose of holding and disposing of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms hereof.

2


 

     Section 2.02 Default. Except during an Event of Default, (a) each Pledgor shall be entitled to (i) receive and retain, or have delivered to it upon request, all payments under Payment Rights and Ordinary Distributions and (ii) make withdrawals from all Bank Accounts and retain such withdrawals, and (b) all Instruments, Chattel Paper, Securities, Letters of Credit and Documents that are Collateral and being held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent shall be made available to such Pledgor upon request for purposes of presentation, collection or renewal (any such arrangement to be effected to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent against a trust receipt or like document). Each request under clause (a)(i) or clause (b) and each withdrawal under clause (a)(ii) of the preceding sentence shall constitute a Representation and Warranty by such Pledgor that no Event of Default is continuing. No delivery of any Collateral pursuant to such clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall terminate the Security Interest therein and each Pledgor shall, within 18 days of its receipt of any such Collateral, either return such Collateral or its proceeds to the Collateral Agent or such other Person as the Collateral Agent may designate or, should the Security Interest in any such proceeds not be perfectible by possession, take such other action as may be required by Section 1.03(a) to continue the perfection of the Security Interest therein. During an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have with respect to all Collateral held by or for its account all of the rights afforded it under Article 5.
     Section 2.03 Interest on Collateral. No Collateral held by the Collateral Agent (other than amounts held in Bank Accounts invested in Cash Equivalents) shall bear interest, except to the extent specifically agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent and, unless otherwise so agreed, any such interest shall be Collateral.
ARTICLE 3
CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
     Each Pledgor represents and warrants as follows:
     Section 3.01 Accuracy of Security Agreement Questionnaire. The Security Agreement Questionnaire related to such Pledgor is, as of the date hereof, complete and correct in all material respects.
     Section 3.02 Required Taxes. Except for those specified on Schedule 3.02, no recording or other taxes or recording, filing or other fees or charges are payable in connection with, arise out of, or are in any way related to, the execution, delivery, performance, filing or recordation of any of the Collateral Documents or the creation or perfection of the Security Interest.
     Section 3.03 Intellectual Property. As of the date hereof, (a) Schedule 3.03 lists all Patents that are registered or are subject to an application for registration, Trademarks which are registered or are subject to an application for registration, Copyrights which are registered or are subject to an application for registration, and any Patent, Patent License, Trademark, Trademark License, Copyright and Copyright License that is material to or necessary in the operation of such Pledgor’s business (b) each of such Patents, Patent Licenses, Trademarks, Trademark Licenses, Copyrights and Copyright Licenses listed on Schedule 3.03 is subsisting, valid and

3


 

enforceable against third Persons, and (c) each Pledgor is the sole and exclusive owner or joint owner as indicated of the entire right, title and interest in and to each of such Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights or has rights thereto, subject to the Patent, Trademark and Copyright Licenses listed on Schedule 3.03.
     Section 3.04 Corporate Governance. Each Pledgor is a corporation, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and qualified to do business in all other jurisdictions where the nature of its business requires it to so qualify except where the absence of such qualification would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Pledgor has the requisite corporate power, as the case may be, to execute and deliver the Financing Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations under the same. The execution, delivery and performance by each Pledgor of its respective obligations under the Financing Documents to which such entity is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each respective Pledgor. Each Pledgor has duly executed and delivered each Financing Document to which it is a party. The execution, delivery and performance by each Pledgor of the Financing Documents to which it is a party do not violate or conflict with such Pledgor’s certificate or articles of incorporation or bylaws. No authorization, approval, or other action by, and no notice to, consent of, order of, or filing with, any governmental authority or securities exchange is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by each Pledgor of the Financing Documents to which it is a party.
ARTICLE 4

     Section 4.02 Ownership and Defense of Collateral. Each Pledgor shall at all times (a) have Rights to each asset that is Collateral free from any right, title or interest of any third Person and (b) defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all third Persons, except that this Section 4.02 shall not apply to (i) but for only so long as such Lien is a Permitted Lien, the interest in the Collateral and the claims and demands of a holder of a Permitted Lien or (ii) Collateral to which Section 1.02 does not apply.
     Section 4.03 Security Questionnaire.

     Section 4.04 Requested Information. In addition to such other information as shall be specifically provided for herein, each Pledgor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such other information with respect to the Collateral as the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may reasonably request from time to time, in each case in form and substance and certified in a manner satisfactory to the Person requesting such information.

     Section 4.06 New Pledgors. Pursuant to Section 4.31 of the Indenture, if a Pledgor shall at any time form or acquire any new Subsidiary which is not a Pledgor hereunder, such Pledgor shall (i) promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a supplement to this Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B to this Agreement, duly completed and executed and (ii) promptly cause such Subsidiary to complete and deliver a Security Agreement Questionnaire substantially in the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement.

A private sale of which notice shall have been published in accordance with applicable “no action” letters published by the SEC, and that otherwise complies with such letters, shall be deemed to constitute a “public disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-610(c)(1) of the UCC. The Collateral Agent has no obligation whatsoever to file any registration statement with any securities regulatory authority.

          (e) any exercise of, or any election not or failure to exercise, delay in the exercise of, waiver of, or forbearance or other indulgence with respect to, any right, remedy or

21


 

power available to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, including (i) any election not or failure to exercise any right of setoff, recoupment or counterclaim, (ii) any election of remedies effected by the Secured Parties, including the foreclosure upon any real estate constituting collateral, whether or not such election affects the right to obtain a deficiency judgment, and (iii) any election by the Secured Parties in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of such Code; and
          (f) Any other act or failure to act or any other event or circumstance that (i) varies the risk of any Pledgor hereunder or (ii) but for the provision hereof, would, as a matter of statute or rule of Law or equity, operate to limit or terminate the Security Interest or to reduce or limit the Secured Obligations secured thereby or to discharge any Pledgor from any of its Obligations under the Collateral Documents.
     Section 6.11 Certain Other Waivers. Each Pledgor waives:
          (a) any requirement, and any right to require, that any right or power be exercised or any action be taken against the Borrower, any guarantor or any collateral for the Secured Obligations;

22


 

LIMITATION OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS SECURED THEREBY OR (iii) A DEFENSE AGAINST ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS.
     Section 6.12 Independent Credit Evaluation. Each Pledgor has independently, and without reliance on any information supplied by the Secured Parties, taken, and will continue to take, whatever steps it deems necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any duty to advise such Pledgor of information at any time known to it regarding such financial condition or affairs.
     Section 6.13 Limitation on Amount of Obligations Secured. It is the intention of each Pledgor and the Collateral Agent that the Secured Obligations secured by the Security Interest and the obligations of such Pledgor under the Collateral Documents shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law. To that end, but only to the extent that the Security Interest would otherwise be void, voidable or otherwise unenforceable, the amount of the Secured Obligations secured by the Security Interest shall be limited to the maximum amount that would not make the Security Interest void, voidable or otherwise unenforceable. This Section 6.13 is intended to preserve the rights of the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and neither a Pledgor nor any other Person shall have any right under this Section 6.13 that it would not otherwise have under applicable Law.
     Section 6.14 Continuance and Acceleration of Secured Obligations upon Certain Events. If:
          (a) any Event of Default that the Indenture states is to result in the automatic acceleration of any Secured Obligations shall occur;
          (b) any injunction, stay or the like that enjoins any acceleration, or demand for the payment, observance or performance, of any Secured Obligations that would otherwise be required or permitted under the Financing Documents shall become effective; or
          (c) any Secured Obligations shall be or be determined to be or become discharged, disallowed, invalid, illegal, void or otherwise unenforceable (whether by operation of any present or future law or by order of any court or governmental agency);
          (d) then (i) such Secured Obligations shall, for all purposes of the Collateral Documents, be deemed (A) in the case of clause (c), to continue to be outstanding and in full force and effect notwithstanding the unenforceability thereof and (B) if such is not already the case, to have thereupon become immediately due and payable and to have commenced bearing interest at the Default Rate and (ii) the Collateral Agent may, with respect to such Secured Obligations, exercise all of the rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents that would be available to it during an Event of Default.
     Section 6.15 Recovered Payments. The Secured Obligations shall be deemed not to have been paid, observed or performed, and each Pledgor’s obligations under the Collateral Documents in respect thereof shall continue and not be discharged, to the extent that any payment, observance or performance thereof by the Borrower or any guarantor, or out of the

23


 

proceeds of any other collateral, is recovered from or paid over by or for the account of any Secured Party for any reason, including as a preference or fraudulent transfer or by virtue of any subordination (whether present or future or contractual or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, whether such recovery or payment over is effected by any judgment, decree or order of any court or governmental agency, by any plan of reorganization or by settlement or compromise by any Secured Party (whether or not consented to by the Borrower, a Pledgor or any guarantor) of any claim for any such recovery or payment over. Each Pledgor hereby expressly waives the benefit of any applicable statute of limitations and agrees that it shall be obligated hereunder with respect to any Secured Obligations whenever such a recovery or payment over thereof occurs.

     Section 6.18 Subordination of Rights Against the Borrower, Guarantors and Other Collateral.
          (a) Release of “Claims” Against the Borrower Resulting from the Collateral Documents. Each Pledgor hereby releases the Borrower from all “claims” (as defined in section 101(4) of the Bankruptcy Code) that such Pledgor might otherwise have against the Borrower, including any such claims to which such Pledgor may be entitled as a result of any right of subrogation, exoneration or reimbursement.
          (b) Subordination of Other Rights. All rights that each Pledgor may at any time have against the Borrower, any guarantor or any other collateral for the Secured Obligations (including rights of subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement and contribution and whether arising under applicable Law or otherwise) are hereby expressly subordinated to the prior payment, observance and performance in full of the Secured Obligations. Each Pledgor shall not enforce any of the rights, or attempt to obtain payment or performance of any of the obligations, subordinated pursuant to this Section 6.18(b) until the Secured Obligations have been paid, observed and performed in full, except that such prohibition shall not apply to routine acts, such as the giving of notices and the filing of continuation statements, necessary to preserve any such rights. If any amount shall be paid to or recovered by such Pledgor (whether directly or by way of setoff, recoupment or counterclaim) on account of any right or obligation subordinated pursuant to this Section 6.18(b), such amount shall be held in trust by such Pledgor for the benefit of the Secured Parties, not commingled with any of such Pledgor’s other funds and forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent, in the exact form received, together with any necessary endorsements, to be applied and credited against, or held as security for, the Secured Obligations.

          (b) Security Interest and all of each Pledgor’s obligations under Article 1, Article 4 and Article 5 shall terminate upon the latest of (a) the repayment, to the extent due, and, to the extent not due, the satisfaction or securing, in a manner acceptable to the Collateral Agent, of the Secured Obligations, (b) the maturity of the Bonds and (c) the discharge, dismissal with prejudice, settlement, release or other termination of any other Financing Document Related Claims that may be pending or threatened against the Indemnified Parties.
          (c) In the absence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Collateral Document unless it shall first receive legal advice or the concurrence of the Holders pursuant to Section 6.02(m) of the Indenture prior to the discharge of obligations, in accordance with the terms hereof and the Indenture, or it shall first be indemnified or receive security to its satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

     Section 6.22 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL, PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1401, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

In the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all of the rights, benefits, protections and immunities afforded to it pursuant to the Indenture and this Agreement.
