SECTION 2.      THE LOAN

 

2.1           Term Loan.

 

(a)          Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender will severally (and not jointly) make, in an amount not to exceed its respective Term Commitment, and Borrower agrees to draw, an Advance of $7,000,000. Proceeds of any Advance shall be deposited into an account that is subject to a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Agent perfected by an Account Control Agreement.

 

(b)          Advance Request. To obtain the Advance, Borrower shall complete, sign and deliver an Advance Request to Agent at least three (3) Business Days before the Advance Date. Lender shall fund the Advance in the manner requested by the Advance Request provided that Lender’s obligation to fund the Advance is subject to Borrower’s satisfaction of all applicable conditions precedent to the Advance as of the requested Advance Date.

 

(c)          Interest. The principal balance of the Advance shall bear interest thereon from the Advance Date at the Term Loan Interest Rate based on a year consisting of 360 days, with interest computed daily based on the actual number of days elapsed. The Term Loan Interest Rate will float and change on the day the Prime Rate changes from time to time.

 

(d)          Payment. Borrower will pay interest on the Advance on the first Business Day of each month, beginning the month after the Advance Date. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on the first Business Day of each month thereafter, until the Secured Obligations are repaid, Borrower shall repay the aggregate principal balance of the Advance that is outstanding on the immediately preceding the Amortization Date, in equal monthly installments of principal and interest (mortgage style) based on an amortization payment schedule consisting of 30 months (even though, for the avoidance of doubt, the amortization period applicable to the Loan shall be of a shorter duration in accordance with the Term Loan Maturity Date), such payments beginning on the Amortization Date and continuing on the first Business Day of each month thereafter until the Secured Obligations are repaid. The entire Term Loan principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder shall be due and payable on Term Loan Maturity Date. Borrower shall make all payments under this Agreement without setoff, recoupment or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim or defense. Lender will initiate debit entries to Borrower’s account as authorized on the ACH Authorization (i) on each payment date of all periodic obligations payable to Lender under the Advance and (ii) out-of-pocket legal fees and costs incurred by Agent or Lender in connection with Section 11.11.

 

 
 

 

2.2           Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (which under the laws of the State of California shall be deemed to be the laws relating to permissible rates of interest on commercial loans) (the “Maximum Rate”). If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that Borrower has actually paid to Lender an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if all of the Secured Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of the Secured Obligations consisting of the outstanding principal; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of Lender’s accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional fees and any other Secured Obligations; and third, after all Secured Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrower.

 

2.3           Default Interest. In the event any payment is not paid on the scheduled payment date, an amount equal to 5% of the past due amount shall be payable on demand. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, all Secured Obligations, including principal, interest, compounded interest, and professional fees, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate set forth in Section 2.1(c) plus 5% per annum. In the event any interest is not paid when due hereunder, delinquent interest shall be added to principal and shall bear interest on interest, compounded at the rate set forth in Section 2.1(c) or this Section 2.3, as applicable.

 

2.4           Prepayment. At its option upon at least seven (7) Business Days prior notice to Agent, Borrower may prepay all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Advance by paying the entire principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with a prepayment charge in an amount equal to the following percentage of the Advance amounts being prepaid (a “Prepayment Charge”): (i) if the Advance amounts are prepaid during any of the first 12 months after the Closing Date, 3.00%; (ii) if the Advance amounts are prepaid during the period commencing after 12 months but on or prior to 24 months after the Closing Date, 2.00%; and (iii) if the Advance amounts are paid during any period after 24 months following the Closing Date and prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, 1.00%. Borrower agrees that the Prepayment Charge is a reasonable calculation of Lender’s lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early repayment of the Advance. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding amount of all principal and accrued interest through the prepayment date and all unpaid fees and expenses accrued to the date of repayment (including the End of Term Charge) together with the applicable Prepayment Charge.

 

 
 

 

2.5          Optional Payment of Principal by Conversion to Common Stock.

 

(a)          Borrower Election for Payment in Cash or Conversion to Common Stock. Subject to satisfaction of the Conversion Conditions and compliance with the other terms and conditions of this Section 2.5, Borrower may elect to pay, in whole or in part, any regularly scheduled installment of principal (a “Principal Installment Payment”) up to an aggregate maximum amount of $1,000,000 by converting a portion of the principal of the Loan into shares of Common Stock in lieu of payment thereof in cash (such option, a “Conversion Option”). In order to validly exercise a Conversion Option, Borrower (A) must deliver written notice thereof, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, to Agent (a Conversion Election Notice) five (5) days prior to the applicable due date of the applicable Principal Installment Payment (the “Principal Installment Due Date”) and (B) shall (provided that Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program of the Depository Trust Company) credit to Agent by no later than the first trading day following the applicable Principal Installment Due Date (such date, the “Delivery Date”) such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Lender with respect to such Conversion Election Notice, as determined in accordance with this Section 2.5 (which shares shall be free of any restrictions on transfer).

If Borrower elects to make a Principal Installment Payment, in whole or in part, through conversion of such amount into shares of Common Stock, the number of such shares of Common Stock to be issued in respect of such Principal Installment Payment shall be equal to the number determined by dividing (x) the applicable portion of such Principal Installment Payment by (y) $4.69 (the “Fixed Conversion Price”); provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or reverse stock split pertaining to the Common Stock, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased or decreased as necessary to reflect the proportionate change in the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as a result of such stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or reverse stock split. Any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to a Conversion Election Notice shall be deemed to be issued upon the applicable Principal Installment Due Date.

 

(b)          Conversion Conditions.

(B)         the Common Stock issued in connection with any such payment does not exceed 20% of the total trading volume of the Common Stock for the twenty-two (22) consecutive trading days immediately prior to and including such Delivery Date;

 

 
 

 

(C)         only one Conversion Election Notice may be given in any calendar month following the Amortization Date;

(H)         as of such Delivery Date, there is no outstanding Event of Default and there is no breach or default that, if left uncured, would reasonably be expected to result in an Event of Default; and

 

(I)          Borrower shall have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to provide for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Conversion Election Notice. If any of the Conversion Conditions are not satisfied as of a Delivery Date, Borrower shall not be permitted to pay, and Lender shall not be obligated to accept, the Principal Installment Payment in shares of Common Stock, and Borrower shall instead pay such principal amount in cash; provided, however, that the Conversion Conditions set forth in clauses (A), (B), (C), (E), (F) and (H) above may be waived by a writing executed by both Borrower and Lender. In the event Borrower is relying upon an effective registration statement to satisfy clause (F) of the Conversion Conditions, each of Borrower and Lender shall provide customary indemnification to one another with respect to such registration statement in a form acceptable to Borrower and Lender. By no later than the first trading day following the Delivery Date, Borrower shall (provided that Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program of the Depository Trust Company) credit to Lender the shares of Common Stock to be delivered by Borrower with respect to the portion of the Principal Installment Payment being paid in shares of Common Stock.

 

 
 

 

(c)          Lender Election for Payment in Cash or Conversion to Common Stock. Subject to satisfaction of the Conversion Conditions and compliance with the other terms and conditions of this Section 2.5, with respect to any Principal Installment Payment scheduled to be paid by Borrower, Lender may elect to receive such payment in Common Stock by requiring Borrower to effect a Conversion Option. In order to exercise its right to require Borrower to effect a Conversion Option, Lender shall deliver a Conversion Election Notice to Borrower five (5) days prior to the applicable Principal Installment Due Date. Borrower shall (provided that Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program of the Depository Trust Company) credit to Lender by no later than the Delivery Date such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Lender with respect to such Conversion Election Notice, as determined in accordance with this Section 2.5 (which shares shall be free of any restrictions on transfer), by no later than the first trading day following the applicable Delivery Date.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not be permitted to issue to Lender, and Lender shall not be required to accept, shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Conversion Election Notice if and to the extent such issuance, when taking together with all other issuances pursuant to prior Conversion Election Notices, would result in (A) the issuance of more than 19.99% of the Common Stock outstanding as of the date of this Agreement or (B) Lender, together with its Affiliates, beneficially owning in excess of 19.99% of the outstanding Common Stock (each of clauses (A) and (B) are referred to herein as the “Cap”). As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For any reason at any time, upon written or oral request of Lender, Borrower shall within one business day confirm orally and in writing to Lender the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding as of any given date.

 

 
 

 

(e)          Rule 144. With a view to making available to Lender the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (including any successor rule, “Rule 144”) and any other rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that may at any time permit Lender to sell shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.5 to the public without registration, Borrower covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until six (6) months after such date as all of the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.5 may be sold without restriction by Lender pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports and other documents required to be filed by Borrower under the 1934 Act; and (iii) furnish to Lender upon request, as long as Lender owns any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.5, such information as Lender or Agent may reasonably request and that is reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with Rule 144 (or any successor rule thereto).

 

(f)          Stock Reservation. Borrower covenants and agrees to reserve from its duly authorized capital stock not less than the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issuable upon payment of any Principal Installment Payment pursuant to Section 2.5. Borrower further represents, warrants and covenants that, upon issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.5, such shares of Common Stock shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

 

(g)          Authorization. For so long as Lender holds any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.5, Borrower shall maintain the Common Stock’s authorization for listing on NASDAQ (or on another Eligible Market) and Borrower shall not take any action which would reasonably be expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on NASDAQ (or other Eligible Market on which the Common Stock is listed).

Notwithstanding the required payment date of the End of Term Charge, it shall be deemed earned by Lender as of the Closing Date.

 

2.7           Notes. If requested by Lender in a written notice to Borrower, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of Lender pursuant to Section 11.13) (promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence Lender’s Loans.

 

 
 

 

2.8           Pro Rata Treatment. Each payment (including prepayment) on account of any fee and any reduction of the Term Loan shall be made pro rata according to the Term Commitments of the relevant Lender.

 

SECTION 3.      SECURITY INTEREST

 

As security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment when due (whether on the payment dates or otherwise) of all the Secured Obligations, Borrower (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parent Company upon its delivery of a Joinder Agreement to Agent) grants to Agent a security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in and to the following personal property whether now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”): (a) Receivables; (b) Equipment; (c) Fixtures; (d) General Intangibles (other than Intellectual Property); (e) Inventory; (f) Investment Property; (g) Deposit Accounts; (h) Cash; (i) Goods; and all other tangible and intangible personal property of Borrower whether now or hereafter owned or existing, leased, consigned by or to, or acquired by, Borrower and wherever located, and any of Borrower’s property in the possession or under the control of Agent; and, to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds of each of the foregoing and all accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, and rents, profits and products of each of the foregoing; provided, however, that the Collateral shall include all Accounts and General Intangibles that consist of rights to payment and proceeds from the sale, licensing or disposition of all or any part, or rights in, the Intellectual Property (the “Rights to Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a judicial authority (including a U.S. Bankruptcy Court) holds that a security interest in the underlying Intellectual Property is necessary to have a security interest in the Rights to Payment, then the Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the date of this Agreement, include the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Rights to Payment. Notwithstanding the broad grant of the security interest set forth this Section 3, the Collateral shall not include (i) Intellectual Property, (ii) more than 65% of the presently existing and hereafter arising issued and outstanding shares of capital stock owned by Borrower in any Foreign Subsidiary and (iii) nonassignable licenses or contracts, which by their terms require the consent of the licensor thereof or another party (but only to the extent such prohibition on transfer is enforceable under applicable law, including, without limitation, Sections 9406, 9407 and 9408 of the UCC).

6.2           Certificates.

Borrower shall provide a minimum of 30 days advance written notice to Agent of any cancellation or any other change adverse to Agent’s interests, under any insurance policy maintained by Borrower. Any failure of Agent to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Agent’s rights, all of which are reserved.

 

6.3           Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Agent, Lender and their officers, directors, employees, agents, in-house attorneys, representatives and shareholders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict liability in tort), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense (including those incurred upon any appeal) (collectively, “Liabilities”), that may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the administration of such credit, or in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, or any actions or failures to act in connection therewith, or arising out of the disposition or utilization of the Collateral, excluding in all cases Liabilities to the extent resulting from any Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

In addition, Agent or Lender shall be entitled at reasonable times and intervals to consult with and advise the management and officers of Borrower concerning significant business issues affecting Borrower. Such consultations shall not unreasonably interfere with Borrower’s business operations. The parties intend that the rights granted Agent and Lender 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 by Agent or Lender with respect to any business issues shall not be deemed to give Agent or Lender, nor be deemed an exercise by Agent or Lender of, control over Borrower’s management or policies.

Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to protect and defend Borrower’s title to the Collateral and Agent’s Lien thereon against all Persons claiming any interest adverse to Borrower or Agent other than Permitted Liens. In addition to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of the Advance Date, Borrower (a) shall deliver to Agent a duly executed waiver and consent, in such form as agreed to in Agent’s reasonable discretion, from the lessor (and as applicable, any sub-lessor) of the property leased by Borrower for use as the Borrower’s corporate headquarters following the Merger, and (b) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain bailee waivers, in such form as agreed to in Agent’s reasonable discretion, from any Person in possession of property of Borrower with an aggregate value greater than $500,000 (as reasonably determined by Borrower).

 

7.4           Indebtedness. Borrower shall not create, incur, assume, guarantee or be or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness, or permit any Subsidiary so to do, other than Permitted Indebtedness, or prepay any Indebtedness or take any actions which impose on Borrower an obligation to prepay any Indebtedness, except for the conversion of Indebtedness into equity securities and the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares in connection with such conversion.

 

7.5           Collateral; Negative Pledge. Borrower shall at all times keep the Collateral and all other property and assets (including, without limitation, Intellectual Property) used in Borrower’s business or in which Borrower now or hereafter holds any interest free and clear from any legal process or Liens whatsoever (except for Permitted Liens), and shall give Agent prompt written notice of any legal process affecting the Collateral, the Intellectual Property, and such other property and assets, or any Liens thereon; provided, however, that the Collateral, the and such other property and assets may be subject to Permitted Liens except that there shall be no Liens whatsoever on Intellectual Property (other than any Lien in favor of Agent as permitted under this Agreement). Borrower shall cause its Subsidiaries to protect and defend such Subsidiary’s title to its assets from and against all Persons claiming any interest adverse to such Subsidiary, and Borrower shall cause its Subsidiaries at all times to keep such Subsidiary’s property and assets free and clear from any legal process or Liens whatsoever (except for Permitted Liens, provided however, that there shall be no Liens whatsoever on Intellectual Property of any Subsidiary, other than any Lien in favor of Agent as permitted under this Agreement), and shall give Agent prompt written notice of any legal process affecting such Subsidiary’s assets. Borrower shall not agree with any Person other than Agent or Lender not to encumber its property.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.9 shall not prohibit the acquisition (including by exclusive license) of all or substantially all of the property of another Person to the extent (i) that such property is comprised substantially of Intellectual Property, (ii) the Borrower reasonably believes such acquisition is necessary in order to protect its interests in its Intellectual Property, and (iii) such acquisitions do not exceed $250,000 in any fiscal year.

The Required Lenders and Borrower party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, Agent and Borrower party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (i) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights or obligations of Lender or of Borrower hereunder or thereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or Agent and Borrower, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Term Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (B) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 11.3(b) without the written consent of such Lender; (C) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release a Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; or (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11.17 without the written consent of Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon Borrower, Lender, Agent and all future holders of the Loans.

 

 
 

 

11.4         No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

 

11.5         No Waiver. The powers conferred upon Agent and Lender by this Agreement are solely to protect its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or Lender to exercise any such powers.

(a)           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 BORROWER, AGENT AND LENDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT 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 BORROWER AGAINST AGENT, LENDER OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE OR BY AGENT, LENDER OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE AGAINST BORROWER. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve Persons other than Agent, Borrower and Lender; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship among Borrower, Agent and Lender; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, tort, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document.

 

(b)          If the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 11.10(a) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be resolved by reference to a private judge sitting without a jury, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, before a mutually acceptable referee or, if the parties cannot agree, a referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California. Such proceeding shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such proceeding.

 

 
 

 

(c)          In the event Claims are to be resolved by judicial reference, either party may seek from a court identified in Section 11.9, any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by judicial reference.

 

11.11       Professional Fees. Borrower promises to pay Agent’s and Lender’s fees and expenses necessary to finalize the loan documentation, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees, UCC searches, filing costs, and other miscellaneous expenses. In addition, Borrower promises to pay any and all reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of in-house counsel) incurred by Agent and Lender after the Closing Date in connection with or related to: (a) the Loan; (b) the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Loan; (c) the amendment or modification of the Loan Documents; (d) any waiver, consent, release, or termination under the Loan Documents; (e) the protection, preservation, audit, field exam, sale, lease, liquidation, or disposition of Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral; (f) any legal, litigation, administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in connection with or related to Borrower or the Collateral, and any appeal or review thereof; and (g) any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout, foreclosure, or other action related to Borrower, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, including representing Agent or Lender in any adversary proceeding or contested matter commenced or continued by or on behalf of Borrower’s estate, and any appeal or review thereof. The parties hereto agree that the fees of Agent’s legal counsel payable by Borrower in connection with the negotiation of the Loan Documents and the actions to be taken and the deliveries to be made in connection with the Advance on the Closing Date shall equal $17,500 (such amount in addition to the costs of any UCC searches and filing costs incurred by Agent’s legal counsel on behalf of Agent and Lender).

 

11.12       Confidentiality. Agent and Lender acknowledge that certain items of Collateral and information provided to Agent and Lender by Borrower are confidential and proprietary information of Borrower, if and to the extent such information either (x) is marked as confidential by Borrower at the time of disclosure, or (y) should reasonably be understood to be confidential (the “Confidential Information”). Accordingly, Agent and Lender agree that any Confidential Information it may obtain in the course of acquiring, administering, or perfecting Agent’s security interest in the Collateral or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement shall not be disclosed to any other Person or entity in any manner whatsoever or used by Agent or Borrower for any purpose other than administering, performing or exercising their rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Borrower, except that Agent and Lender may disclose any such information: (a) to its own directors, officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other professional advisors and to its Affiliates if Agent or Lender in their reasonable discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information in connection with such party’s responsibilities in connection with the Loan or this Agreement and, provided that such recipient of such Confidential Information either (i) agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this paragraph or (ii) is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against the disclosure and unauthorized use of Confidential Information; (b) if such information is generally available to the public; (c) if required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any governmental authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over Agent or Lender; (d) if required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, to the extent permitted or deemed advisable by Agent’s or Lender’s counsel; (e) to comply with any legal requirement or law applicable to Agent or Lender; (f) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, including Agent’s sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral after default; (g) to any participant or assignee of Agent or Lender or any prospective participant or assignee; provided, that such participant or assignee or prospective participant or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by this Section prior to disclosure; or (h) otherwise with the prior consent of Borrower; provided, that any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 

 
 

 

11.13       Assignment of Rights. Borrower acknowledges and understands that Agent or Lender may, subject to Section 11.7, sell and assign all or part of its interest hereunder and under the Loan Documents to any Person or entity (an “Assignee”). After such assignment the term “Agent” or “Lender” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include such Assignee, and such Assignee shall be vested with all rights, powers and remedies of Agent and Lender hereunder with respect to the interest so assigned; but with respect to any such interest not so transferred, Agent and Lender shall retain all rights, powers and remedies hereby given. No such assignment by Agent or Lender shall relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder. Lender agrees that in the event of any transfer by it of the Note(s)(if any), it will endorse thereon a notation as to the portion of the principal of the Note(s), which shall have been paid at the time of such transfer and as to the date to which interest shall have been last paid thereon.

 

11.14       Revival of Secured Obligations. This Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective if any petition is filed by or against Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, if Borrower becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s assets, or if any payment or transfer of Collateral is recovered from Agent or Lender. The Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations and Collateral security shall continue to be effective, or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations or any transfer of Collateral to Agent, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by, or is recovered from, Agent, Lender or by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment, performance, or transfer of Collateral had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable, restored, returned, or recovered, the Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any further action or documentation, to have been revived and reinstated except to the extent of the full, final, and indefeasible payment to Agent or Lender in Cash.

 

11.15       Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 

 
 

 

11.16       No Third Party Beneficiaries. No provisions of the Loan Documents are intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any Person other than Agent, Lender and Borrower unless specifically provided otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise so provided, all provisions of the Loan Documents will be personal and solely among Agent, Lender and Borrower.

 

11.17       Agency.

 

(a)          Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc. to act on its behalf as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

 

(b)          Lender agrees to indemnify Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its respective Term Commitment percentages (based upon the total outstanding Term Loan Commitments) in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 11.7, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

(c)          The Person serving as Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent and the term “Lender” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each such Person serving as Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.

 

(d)          Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall not:

 

(i)          be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether any default or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(ii)         have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by Lender, provided that Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

 

 
 

 

(iii)        except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and Agent shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by any Person serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

 

(e)          Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of Lender or as Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(f)          Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Agent.

 

(g)          Agent may rely, and shall be fully protected in acting, or refraining to act, upon, any resolution, statement, certificate, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond or other paper or document that it has no reason to believe to be other than genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties or, in the case of cables, telecopies and telexes, to have been sent by the proper party or parties. In the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to Agent and conforming to the requirements of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Agent may consult with counsel, and any opinion or legal advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, not taken or suffered by Agent hereunder or under any Loan Documents in accordance therewith. Agent shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of the Collateral from any court of competent jurisdiction. Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers granted to Agent by this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the request or direction of Lenders unless Agent shall have been provided by Lender with adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

 

 
 

 

11.18         Publicity. None of the parties hereto nor any of its respective member businesses and Affiliates shall, without the other parties’ prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), publicize or use (a) the other party's name (including a brief description of the relationship among the parties hereto), logo or hyperlink to such other parties’ web site, separately or together, in written and oral presentations, advertising, promotional and marketing materials, client lists, public relations materials or on its web site (together, the “Publicity Materials”); (b) the names of officers of such other parties in the Publicity Materials; and (c) such other parties’ name, trademarks, servicemarks in any news or press release concerning such party; provided however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such consent shall be required (i) to the extent necessary to comply with the requests of any regulators, legal requirements or laws applicable to such party, pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange (so long as such party provides prior notice to the other party hereto to the extent reasonably practicable) and (ii) to comply with Section 11.12.
