GROTHE, as the Receiver (defined below) of Copan Systems, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”) .

RECITALS

A. On or about March 15, 2007, Borrower entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Seller and pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement Seller advanced loans to Borrower and Borrower owes Seller approximately $5,561,090.08. The Loan and Security Agreement together with all other documents, instruments and writings which relate to the Loan and Security Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents.”

B. On June 25, 2008, Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “2008 Loan Agreement”). Borrower has no remaining obligations to SVB under the 2008 Loan Agreement and SVB has released any security interest that it may have pursuant to the 2008 Loan Agreement.

C. As security for the Loan Documents, Borrower granted to Seller a security interest in all or substantially all of Borrower’s assets, and proceeds thereof, (the “Collateral”). Lender’s security interest in the Collateral is perfected by a UCC-1 Financing Statement filed March 27, 2007 against Borrower under File No. 71147502 in the Office of the Delaware Secretary of State, as amended.

D. On or about February 9, 2009, Borrower and Westbury Investment Partners SBIC, LP, for itself and as agent, (collectively, “Junior Creditors”) entered into that certain Note Purchase and Security Agreement (as amended from time to time collectively referred to as the Junior Security Agreement”). On or about February 9, 2009, the Junior Creditors, Borrower and the Seller entered into that certain Subordination (the “Consent”) pursuant to which the Junior Creditors expressly subordinated their right to payment under the Junior Security Agreement to all of the Borrower’s obligations to Seller.

E. Borrower is in default of its obligations under the Loan Documents for failure to make payments under the Loan Documents according to their terms, among other defaults and Seller has exercised its secured creditor rights.

F. On or about February 5, 2010, Seller filed a complaint and related pleadings in the District Court, Denver County, Colorado (“Court”) seeking the appointment of a receiver to, among other things, take over the management and control of the Collateral. On February 9, 2010, the Court entered its order appointed the Eric N. Grothe as the receiver (“Receiver”) of the Borrower (“Order”). Among other things, the Order, at section 4(v), provides: “…[the] Receiver is hereby authorized to convey to title to the Collateral on behalf of [Seller] to the fullest extent as otherwise given to a foreclosing lender under the Uniform Commercial Code and the Loan Documents, provided that the Lender has otherwise complied with the applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code and the Loan Documents.”

4. Assignee does not hereby assume nor agree to pay, perform or discharge, and the Debtor shall remain unconditionally liable for, any and all Excluded Liabilities.
