This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT dated August 30, 2002, between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”), whose address is 3003 Tasman Drive, Santa Clara, California 95054 and SABA SOFTWARE, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), whose address is 2400 Bridge Parkway, Redwood Shores, CA 94065 provides the terms on which Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as follows:
 
1.     ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS.
 
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term “financial statements” includes the notes and schedules. The terms “including” and “includes” always mean “including (or includes) without limitation,” in this or any Loan Document.
 
2.     LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
 
2.1    Credit Extensions.
 
Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions.
 
2.1.1    Revolving Advances.
 
(a)  Bank will make Advances not exceeding the lesser of (A) the Committed Revolving Line or (B) the Borrowing Base, minus (i) the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), minus (ii) the FX Reserve. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement.
 
(b)  To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or telephone by 12:00 noon. Pacific time on the Business Day the Advance is to be made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B. Bank will credit Advances to Borrower’s deposit account specified by Borrower. Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes in good faith is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance.
 
(c)  The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity Date, when all Advances are immediately payable.
 
2.1.2    Letters of Credit Sublimit.
 
Bank will issue Letters of Credit (each a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) for Borrower’s account not exceeding (i) the lesser of the Committed Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base minus (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Advances minus the FX Reserve; however, the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit) may not exceed the Committed Revolving Line. Each Letter of Credit will have an expiry date of no later than 90 days after the Revolving Maturity Date, but Borrower’s reimbursement obligation will be secured by cash on terms acceptable to Bank at any time after the Revolving Maturity Date if the term of this Agreement is not extended by Bank. Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request. If there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such documentation, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
1


 
2.1.3    Foreign Exchange Sublimit.
 
If there is availability under the Committed Revolving Line and the Borrowing Base, then Borrower may enter in foreign exchange forward contracts with the Bank under which Borrower commits to purchase from or sell to Bank a set amount of foreign currency more than one business day after the contract date (the “FX Forward Contract”). Bank will subtract 10% of each outstanding FX Forward Contract from the foreign exchange sublimit which is a maximum of the Committed Revolving Line (the “FX Reserve”). The total FX Forward Contracts at any one time may not exceed 10 times the amount of the FX Reserve. Bank may terminate the FX Forward Contracts if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing.
 
2.1.4    Equipment Facility.
 
(a)  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank agrees to lend to Borrower, from time to time prior to the Commitment Termination Date, equipment advances (each an “Equipment Advance” and collectively the “Equipment Advances”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Committed Equipment Line. When repaid, the Equipment Advances may not be re-borrowed. The proceeds of the Equipment Advances will be used solely to reimburse Borrower for the purchase of Eligible Equipment purchased within 180 days of the Equipment Advance, provided, however, that used Eligible Equipment may only be financed with the first Equipment Advance. Bank’s obligation to lend hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) the Commitment Termination Date.
 
(b)  To obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 12:00 p.m. Pacific time 5 Business Day before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made. With respect to Equipment Advances that are Option 1 Loans, the notice in the form of Exhibit B (Payment/Advance Form) must be signed by a Responsible Officer or designee and include a copy of the invoice(s) for the Equipment being financed. With respect to Equipment Advances that are Option 2 Loans, Borrower will complete a Loan Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit E on the Funding Date.
 
(c)  If Borrower satisfies the conditions of each Equipment Advance specified in this Section 2.1.5, Bank will disburse such Equipment Advance by internal transfer to Borrower’s deposit account with Bank. Each Equipment Advance may not exceed (i) 100% of the Original Stated Cost for Equipment Advances for the financing of Eligible Equipment purchased within 90 days of the Equipment Advance and (ii) 75% of the Original Stated Cost for Equipment Advances for the financing of Eligible Equipment purchased more than 90 days but less than 180 days before the relevant Equipment Advance.
 
(d)  Bank’s obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Committed Equipment Line will terminate if, in Bank’s sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement.
 
2.1.5    Overadvances.
 
If Borrower’s Obligations under Section 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3 exceed the lesser of either (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower must immediately pay Bank the excess.
 
2.2    Interest Rate, Payments.
 
(a)  Revolving Advances Interest Rate.    Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of 100 basis points (1%) above the Prime Rate, provided, however, that if Borrower maintains 85% or more of its Investable Funds with Bank or one of Bank’s affiliates, Advances will then accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of 50 basis points (.50%) above the Prime Rate for so long as Borrower maintains such level of deposits with Bank and/or one of its affiliates. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The
2


 
interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
 
(b)  Equipment Advances Interest Rate.     Equipment Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate equal to (at Borrower’s option) the Option 1 Basic Rate or the Option 2 Basic Rate. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate on the Option 1 Loans increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. The interest rate on the Option 2 Loans will be determined on the Funding Date and shall remain fixed for the life of such loan. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
 
(c)  Principal and Interest Payments On Payment Dates.     Borrower will pay interest due on Advances under the Committed Revolving Line on the first Business Day of each month. For Equipment Advances bearing the Option 1 Basic Rate (the “Option 1 Loans”), Borrower will make 36 equal monthly installments of principal plus accrued interest for each Option 1 Loan, calculated by multiplying the Option 1 Basic Rate by the outstanding Loan Amount plus principal due as of such Payment Date. For Equipment Advances bearing the Option 2 Basic Rate (the “Option 2 Loans”), Borrower will make payments monthly of principal in advance and accrued interest for each Option 2 Loan, calculated by multiplying the Loan Factor by the Loan Amount for such Equipment Advance as of such Payment Date (payments on the Option 1 Loans and the Option 2 Loans are collectively referred to herein as “Scheduled Payments”). Scheduled Payments are due on the first Business Day of the month following the Funding Date (or commencing on the Funding Date if the Funding Date is the first Business Day of the month) with respect to such Equipment Advance and continuing thereafter during the Equipment Loan Repayment Period on the first Business Day of each calendar month (each a “Payment Date”). All unpaid principal and accrued interest is due and payable in full on the last Payment Date with respect to such Equipment Advance. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. An Equipment Advance may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.2(e), 2.2 (f), 2.2 (g), and 2.2 (h).
 
(d)  Interim Payment.     In addition to the Scheduled Payments, on the Funding Date for each Equipment Advance (unless the Funding Date is the first Business Day of the month) Borrower shall pay to Bank the projected interest to accrue from the Funding Date to the first Payment Date, pursuant to paragraph “(b)” of this Section.
 
(e)  Prepayment Upon an Event of Loss.     If any Financed Equipment is subject to an Event of Loss and Borrower is required to or elects to prepay the Equipment Advance with respect to such Financed Equipment pursuant to Section 6.6, then such Equipment Advance shall be prepaid to the extent and in the manner provided in such section.
 
(f)  Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration.     If the Equipment Advances and the Advances are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than following an Event of Loss), then Borrower will immediately pay to Bank (i) all accrued and unpaid Scheduled Payments (including principal and interest) with respect to each Equipment Advance, (ii) all remaining Scheduled Payments (including principal and interest unpaid) in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(g) and 2.2(h) below, (iii) all principal and accrued interest with respect to the Advances, and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to any Equipment Advance or Advance.
 
(g)  Permitted Prepayment of Option 1 Loans.     Borrower shall have the option to prepay all or any portion of the Option 1 Loans, advanced by Bank under this Agreement, without penalty or premium, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Borrower (i) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Option 1 Loans at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays, on the date of the prepayment (A) all due but unpaid Scheduled Payments as of the date of prepayment (including principal and interest) with respect to each Option 1 Loan and (B) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder relating to such Option 1 Loans with respect to this Agreement.
 
(h)  Permitted Prepayment of Option 2 Loans.     Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Option 2 Loans, advanced by Bank under this Agreement, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Borrower (i) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Option 2 Loans at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays, on the date of the prepayment (A) all
3


 
outstanding principal with respect to all of the Option 2 Loans, (B) all unpaid accrued interest with respect to all of the Option 2 Loans, and (C) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder relating to such Option 2 Loans with respect to this Agreement.
 
2.2.1    Request to Bill or Debit Accounts.
 
Borrower shall have the option to request that Bank (x) bill Borrower for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank when due, or (z) debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts including Account Number              for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. Bank will notify Borrower when it debits Borrower’s accounts. These debits are not a set-off.
 
2.3    Fees.
 
Borrower will pay:
 
(a)  Bank Expenses.    All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses) incurred through and after the date of this Agreement, are payable the earlier of: (x) within 10 days after written demand therefore, or (z) upon the first Credit Extension hereunder.
 
(b)  Loan Fee.    A committed revolving line fee in the amount of $15,000 and an equipment facility fee in the amount of $10,000, each fee shall be fully earned and payable on the Closing Date.
 
(c)  Letters of Credit.    A non-refundable letter of credit fee equal to 1.50% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable on the issuance date of such Letter of Credit and thereafter annually in advance and fully earned upon payment.
 
2.4    Termination of Commitment.    So long as there are no outstanding Advances, Letters of Credit, FX Forward Contracts, or Equipment Advances outstanding, Borrower may at any time with 5 days written notice to Bank, terminate the Committed Revolving Line and the Committed Equipment Line. Upon Borrower’s payment in full of all Obligations then due and payable, this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that payments relating to Obligations arising out of Equipment Advances shall be in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(g) and 2.2(h).

5.    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
 
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
 
5.1    Due Organization and Authorization.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s formation documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
 
5.2    Collateral.
 
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens.

Borrower has no notice of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor whose accounts are an Eligible Account in any Borrowing Base Certificate. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. Borrower is the sole owner of its Intellectual Property. Except as disclosed in periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party, except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
 
5.3    Litigation.
 
Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower’s Responsible Officers and its general counsel, threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which a likely adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
 
5.4    No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements.
 
All consolidated financial statements for Borrower, and any Subsidiary, delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations.

None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
 
5.7    Subsidiaries.
 
Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities except for the Permitted Investments listed on the Closing Date.
 
5.8    Full Disclosure.

Borrower will comply, and have each Subsidiary comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with which could have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business or operations or would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

6.3    Inventory; Returns.
 
Borrower will keep all Inventory in good and marketable condition, free from material defects. Returns and allowances between Borrower and its account debtors will follow Borrower’s customary practices as they exist at execution of this Agreement.

(b)  Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
 
(c)  Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable;
 
(d)  Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
 
(e)  Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;
 
(f)  Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, Mask Works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the then existing Collateral, in completing works in progress with respect to existing orders, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit; and
 
(g)  Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.
 
9.2    Power of Attorney.
 
Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank’s appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
12


 
9.3    Accounts Collection.
 
When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
 
9.4    Bank Expenses.
 
So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons, Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies, in each case, Bank deems prudent to protect the value or Bank’s security interests in the Collateral. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons, Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank to protect the value or Bank’s security interests in the Collateral are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable within 10 days of demand therefore, bearing interest at the then applicable rate for Advances and secured by the Collateral. Any other payments by Bank hereunder shall be paid by Bank only after giving 2 days notice to Borrower and such payments shall be deemed Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable within 10 days of demand therefore, bearing interest at the then applicable rate for Advances and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
 
9.5    Bank’s Liability for Collateral.
 
If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and Section 9-207 of the Code, it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
 
9.6    Remedies Cumulative.
 
Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements where Bank is a party to such agreement are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given.
 
9.7    Demand Waiver.
 
Except for sections in this Agreement that provide for notice to Borrower, Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.
