WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the advancement of funds to Grantor under the 2015 Note, on December 7, 2015, Grantor entered into a Security Agreement with Grantee pursuant to which Grantor granted the security interests contemplated by this Agreement as security for the Secured Obligations (as defined therein) (the “Original Security Agreement”);
WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the advancement of funds to Grantor under the 2016 Note, the parties amended and restated the Original Security Agreement (as amended, the “Amended Security Agreement”) to grant a further security interest in respect of the obligations under the 2016 Note;
WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the advancement of funds to Grantor under the 2017 Note, the parties amended and restated the Amended Security Agreement (as amended, the “Existing Security Agreement”) to grant a further security interest in respect of the obligations under the 2017 Note;
WHEREAS, Grantor and Grantee have agreed to amend and restate the Prior Notes to, among other things, extend the maturity date of such instruments and make certain other amendments as set forth in that certain Amended and Restated Convertible Secured Promissory Note, issued on the date hereof by Grantor to Grantee (the “Note”);
WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to such restructuring of the Prior Notes, the parties now again desire to amend and restate the Existing Security Agreement to reaffirm Grantee’s continuing first priority lien and make certain other amendments as set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, after considering the other available strategic alternatives and funding sources available to Grantor, the Board of Directors of Grantor has determined that the restructuring of the Prior Notes as set forth in the Note and the entry into this Agreement to reaffirm Grantee’s first priority lien is necessary and advisable to ensure Grantor’s ability to operate as a going concern and thereby protect the interests of Grantor and its stockholders.
