EX-10.1 2 b50489nvexv10w1.txt SECOND LOAN MODIFICATION AGREEMENT DATED 4-29-2004 EXHIBIT 10.1 SECOND LOAN MODIFICATION AGREEMENT This Second Loan Modification Agreement (this "Loan Modification Agreement") is entered into as of April 29, 2004, by and among (i) SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California-chartered bank, with its principal place of business at 3003 Tasman Drive, Santa Clara, California 95054 and with a loan production office located at One Newton Executive Park, Suite 200, 2221 Washington Street, Newton, Massachusetts 02462, doing business under the name "Silicon Valley East" ("Bank") and (ii) NAVISITE, INC., a Delaware corporation, CLEARBLUE TECHNOLOGIES MANAGEMENT, INC., a Delaware corporation, AVASTA, INC., a California corporation, CONXION CORPORATION, a California corporation, and INTREPID ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation (jointly and severally, individually and collectively, "Borrower"). 1. DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS. Among other indebtedness and obligations which may be owing by Borrower to Bank, Borrower is indebted to Bank pursuant to a loan arrangement dated as of May 27, 2003, evidenced by, among other documents, a certain Accounts Receivable Financing Agreement dated as of May 27, 2003, as amended by a certain First Loan Modification Agreement ("First Loan Modification Agreement") dated as of January 30, 2004 (as amended from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement. 2. DESCRIPTION OF COLLATERAL. Repayment of the Obligations is secured by the Collateral as described in the Loan Agreement and the Intellectual Property Collateral as described in certain Intellectual Property Security Agreements each dated as of May 27, 2003 (collectively, the "IP Security Agreement") (together with any other collateral security granted to Bank, the "Security Documents"). Hereinafter, the Security Documents, together with all other documents evidencing or securing the Obligations shall be referred to as the "Existing Loan Documents". 3. DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS. Modifications to Loan Agreement. 1. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting Section 2.2 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "2.2 ACCEPTANCE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Bank is not obligated to finance any accounts receivable or the Placeholder Invoice. Bank may approve any Account Debtor's credit before agreeing to finance any accounts receivable. When Bank agrees to finance a receivable or the Placeholder Invoice, it will extend credit to Borrower in an amount up to either (a) the result of the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by the face amount of the receivable or (b) the result of the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by value of the Placeholder Invoice (the "Advance"). Bank may, in its reasonable discretion, change the percentage of the Advance Rate for a particular receivable on a case by case basis or with respect to the Placeholder Invoice. When Bank makes an Advance, the receivable or the Placeholder Invoice becomes a "Financed Receivable." All representations and warranties in Section 6 must be true in all material respects as of the date of the Invoice Transmittal and of the Advance and no Event of Default exists or would occur as a result of the Advance. The aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time may not exceed the Facility Amount. In addition, at any time that an Advance is outstanding based upon the Placeholder Invoice, no other Advances will be made by Bank hereunder. Any Advances outstanding on the date which Bank agrees to finance the Placeholder Invoice shall be repaid prior to Bank making any Advance based on the Placeholder Invoice (or otherwise repaid with the proceeds of such Advance). Although Bank's obligation to make an Advance is discretionary in each instance, Bank acknowledges that (subject to verifications and other terms and conditions provided herein with respect to Account Debtors generally), it is the usual practice of Bank to finance accounts receivable due and owing from those Account Debtors that are Fortune 1000 type companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank will not finance the Placeholder Invoice (and all Advances made based on the Placeholder Invoice shall be immediately repaid at such time) in the event that Borrower fails to comply with the financial covenant set forth in Section 6.3(L) hereof. If Bank will not finance the Placeholder Invoice, then Borrower may offer to Bank accounts receivable for financing as provided under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof." 2. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting Section 3.4 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "3.4 COLLATERAL HANDLING FEE. On each Reconciliation Day, Borrower will pay to Bank a collateral handling fee equal to 0.25% per month of the average daily Financed Receivable Balance outstanding during the applicable Reconciliation Period (the "Collateral Handling Fee"); provided, however, after the occurrence of the Capitalization Event, the Collateral Handling Fee shall reduce to 0.15% per month of the average daily Financed Receivable Balance outstanding during the applicable Reconciliation Period, to be effective on the first day of the month following the receipt by Bank of satisfactory evidence of same from Borrower. After an Event of Default, the Collateral Handling Fee will increase an additional 0.25% per month effective immediately before the Event of Default." 3. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting Section 4.1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "4.1 REPAYMENT ON MATURITY. Borrower will repay each Advance on the earliest of: (a) payment of the Financed Receivable in respect which the Advance was made, (b) the Financed Receivable becomes an Ineligible Receivable, (c) when any Adjustment is made to the Financed Receivable (but only to the extent of the Adjustment if the Financed Receivable is not otherwise an Ineligible Receivable), (d) the last day of the Facility Period (including any early termination), (e) with respect to Advances made based upon accounts receivable (rather than the Placeholder Invoice), at such time as the Bank makes any Advance based on the Placeholder Invoice, or (f) with respect to Advances made based on the Placeholder Invoice, at any time Borrower fails to comply with the financial covenant set forth in Section 6.3(L) hereof. Each payment will also include all accrued Finance Charges on the Advance and all other amounts due hereunder." 4. Notwithstanding Section 4.3 of the Loan Agreement to the contrary, from and after the date of this Loan Modification Agreement, the Early Termination Fee shall be $150,000.00; provided, however, that, commencing on October 31, 2004, such Early Termination Fee shall decrease by $15,000.00 per quarter, provided further, that the Early Termination Fee shall be no less than $75,000.00. 5. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by adding the following new subsection 6.2 (H) after subsection 6.2(G) thereof: "(H) With respect to the Placeholder Invoice, Borrower represents and warrants that the value of Borrower's recurring total monthly revenue (plus, without 2 duplication, revenue from any contracts with the New York State Department of Labor) less professional services revenue used by Borrower to determine the amount of the Placeholder Invoice is based upon the best information available to Borrower and accurately and fully reflects same." 6. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the following text appearing in subsection (A) of Section 6.2 thereof: "Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound." and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "Borrower is not in default under any material agreement to which or by which it is bound." 7. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting subsection (C) of Section 6.2 thereof in its entirety, and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "(C) Except as listed on SCHEDULE C attached hereto, there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower, in excess of: (i) $25,000 on an individual basis, and (ii) $250,000 in the aggregate." 8. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting subsection (D) of Section 6.3 thereof in its entirety, and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "(D) Borrower shall deliver to Bank: (i) as soon as available, but no later than thirty (30) days after the last day of each month, a company prepared consolidated balance sheet and income statement, prepared under GAAP, consistently applied, covering Borrower's consolidated operations during the period, in a form and substance acceptable to Bank, certified by Borrower; (ii) as soon as available, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of Borrower's fiscal year, audited consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP, consistently applied, together with an unqualified opinion (subject to a going concern qualification) on the financial statements from an independent certified public accounting firm acceptable to Bank; and (iii) budgets, sales projections, operating plans or other financial information Bank reasonably requests in a form of presentation previously delivered by Borrower to Bank." 9. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the definition of "Advance Rate" appearing in Section 1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: ""ADVANCE RATE" is (i) with respect to accounts receivable, eighty percent (80%), net of Deferred Revenue and offsets related to each specific Account Debtor, or such other percentage as Bank establishes under Section 2.2, and (ii) with respect to the Placeholder Invoice, eighty-five percent (85.0%) or such other percentage as Bank establishes under Section 2.2." 10. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the definition of "Applicable Rate" appearing in Section 1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: 3 ""APPLICABLE RATE" is a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus four percent (4.0%); provided, however, after the occurrence of the Capitalization Event, the Applicable Rate shall reduce to a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus one percent (1.0%), to be effective on the first day of the month following the receipt by Bank of satisfactory evidence of same from Borrower." 11. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the definition of "Capitalization Event" appearing in Section 1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: ""CAPITALIZATION EVENT" is, after April 25, 2004, the receipt by Borrower of at least (i) $25,000,000.00 in net cash proceeds from the issuance of new equity of Borrower, or (ii) $30,000,000.00 in net cash proceeds from the Borrower incurring Subordinated Debt." 12.

The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the definition of "Minimum Finance Charge" appearing in Section 1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the following: ""MINIMUM FINANCE CHARGE" is the amount, as determined by Bank, for which the Finance Charge would be payable if the average daily principal amount of all outstanding Advances during the applicable Reconciliation Period was (i) for each Reconciliation Period beginning May 2004 through April 2005, $5,000,000.00; (ii) for each Reconciliation Period beginning May 2005 through October 2005, $3,000,000.00 and (iii) for each Reconciliation Period beginning November 2005 and thereafter, $0.00." 15.
