TO

This Joinder and First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (this “Amendment”) is entered into this 26th day of February, 2018 (the “First Amendment Effective Date”), by and between SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California corporation (“Bank”) and SPROUT SOCIAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Existing Borrower”), with offices located at 131 S. Dearborn, Suite 700, Chicago, Illinois 60603.
RECITALS
A. Bank and Existing Borrower have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 1, 2017, (as the same may from time to time be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Agreement”).
B. Bank has extended credit to Existing Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.
C. Existing Borrower has requested that Bank amend the Loan Agreement to (i) add a new co-Borrower to the Loan Agreement, (ii) provide for a Letter of Credit sub-limit; and (iii) make certain other revisions to the Loan Agreement as more fully set forth herein.
D. Bank has agreed to so amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.
2. Joinder to Loan Agreement. The undersigned, SIMPLY MEASURED, INC., a Washington corporation (“New Borrower”, and together with Existing Borrower, jointly and severally, individually and collectively, singly, the “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the other applicable Loan Documents, as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, New Borrower agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with Existing Borrower, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby appoints each other Borrower as agent for all purposes hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, regardless of which Borrower
1
actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.
3. Subrogation and Similar Rights. Each Borrower waives any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law with respect to the Loan Documents. Each Borrower waives any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against either Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against either Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or other Loan Document, until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations, and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement, and any Obligations under Bank Services Agreements that are cash collateralized in accordance with Section 4.1 of the Agreement) have been repaid in full, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Bank under the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations, and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement, and any Obligations under Bank Services Agreements that are cash collateralized in accordance with Section 4.1 of the Agreement) have been repaid in full. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
4. Grant of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance of all the Obligations, New Borrower hereby grants to Bank a continuing security interest in all of New Borrower’s now existing or hereafter arising rights and interest in the Collateral (as described on Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement), whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired or arising, and wherever located. New Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions in order to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of the Bank under the Code.
5. Representations and Warranties. New Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of Existing Borrower are true and correct in all material respects on the date hereof with respect to New Borrower (other than with respect to those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date, which shall remain be true and correct in all material respects as of such date), with the same
2
force and effect as if New Borrower were named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents in addition to Existing Borrower.
6. Delivery of Documents. New Borrower hereby agrees that the following documents shall be delivered to the Bank prior to or contemporaneously with delivery of this Amendment, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank:
A. | the completed Borrowing Resolutions for New Borrower, together with the duly executed original signatures thereto; |
B. | the Operating Documents and long-form good standing certificate of New Borrower certified by the Secretary of State of Washington and the jurisdiction in which New Borrower’s chief executive office is located, each as of a date no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof; |
C. | to the extent not already on file with Bank, a landlord’s consent in favor of Bank for New Borrower’s chief executive office by the respective landlord thereof, together with the duly executed original signatures thereto; |
D. | certified copies, dated as of a recent date, of financing statement searches, as Bank may request, accompanied by written evidence that the Liens indicated in any such financing statements either constitute Permitted Liens or have been terminated or released; |
E. | a Perfection Certificate of New Borrower, together with the duly executed original signature thereto (the “New Borrower Perfection Certificate”); |
F. | evidence satisfactory to Bank that the insurance policies and endorsements required by the Loan Agreement are in full force and effect, together with appropriate evidence showing lender loss payable and/or additional insured clauses or endorsements in favor of Bank; and |
G. | such other documents as Bank may have reasonably requested. |
7. Amendments to Loan Agreement.
7.1 Section 2.2.1 (Letters of Credit Sublimit). The following is added as Section 2.2.1 immediately following Section 2.2:
“2.2.1 Letters of Credit Sublimit.
(a) As part of the Revolving Line, Bank shall issue or have issued Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or a Foreign Currency for Borrower’s account. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount utilized for the issuance of Letters of Credit shall at all times reduce the amount otherwise available for Advances under the
3
Revolving Line. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit and any Letter of Credit Reserve) may not exceed the lesser of (i) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and (ii) (A) the lesser of (1) the Revolving Line or (2) the Borrowing Base minus (B) the sum of all outstanding principal amounts of any Advances. On and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed for all purposes, including for purposes of the fees to be collected pursuant to Section 2.5(g), reimbursement of costs and expenses to the extent provided herein and for purposes of being secured by the Collateral, a Letter of Credit outstanding under this Agreement and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall be governed by the applications and agreements pertaining thereto and by this Agreement (which shall control in the event of a conflict).
(b) If, on the Revolving Line Maturity Date (or the effective date of any termination of this Agreement), there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to at least one hundred five percent (105.0%) for Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or at least one hundred ten percent (110.0%) for Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, in each case of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or estimated by Bank to become due in connection therewith, to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit. All Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s standard Application and Letter of Credit Agreement (the “Letter of Credit Application”). Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request. Borrower further agrees to be bound by the regulations and interpretations of the issuer of any Letters of Credit guaranteed by Bank and opened for Borrower’s account or by Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued by Bank for Borrower’s account, and Borrower understands and agrees that Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto.
(c) The obligation of Borrower to immediately reimburse Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letters of Credit, and the Letter of Credit Application.
(d) Borrower may request that Bank issue a Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency. If a demand for payment is made under any such Letter of Credit, Bank shall treat such demand as an Advance to Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount thereof (plus fees and charges in connection therewith such as wire, cable, SWIFT or similar charges).
4
(e) To guard against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency, Bank shall create a reserve (the “Letter of Credit Reserve”) under the Revolving Line in an amount equal to a percentage (which percentage shall be determined by Bank in its sole discretion) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve may be adjusted by Bank from time to time to account for fluctuations in the exchange rate. The availability of funds under the Revolving Line shall be reduced by the amount of such Letter of Credit Reserve for as long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding.”
7.2 Section 2.3 (Overadvances). Section 2.3 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“2.3 Overadvances. If, at any time, the sum of (a) the outstanding principal amount of any Advances, plus (b) the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit and any Letter of Credit Reserve), exceeds the lesser of either the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank in cash the amount of such excess (such excess, the “Overadvance”). Without limiting Borrower’s obligation to repay Bank any Overadvance, Borrower agrees to pay Bank interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at a per annum rate equal to the rate that is otherwise applicable to Advances plus five percent (5.0%).”
7.3 Section 2.5 (Fees). The following new subsection 2.5(g) is inserted immediately following subsection 2.5(f) thereof:
“(g) Letter of Credit Fee. Bank’s customary fees and expenses for the issuance or renewal of Letters of Credit, upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit, each anniversary of the issuance during the term of such Letter of Credit, and upon the renewal of such Letter of Credit by Bank.”

“(b) Disputes. Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of all disputes or claims relating to Accounts involving amounts, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00).

5
to the Letter of Credit Reserve), will not exceed the lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base.”
7.5 Section 6.13 (Formation or Acquisition of Subsidiaries). Section 6.13 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“6.13 Formation or Acquisition of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding and without limiting the negative covenants contained in Sections 7.3 and 7.7 hereof, at the time that Borrower or any Guarantor forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Effective Date, Borrower shall, at Bank’s request with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary (subject to the provisions set forth below), and in any event with respect to any Domestic Subsidiary (a) cause such new Subsidiary to provide to Bank a joinder to this Agreement to become a co-borrower hereunder or a Guaranty to become a Guarantor hereunder, together with such appropriate financing statements and/or Control Agreements, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank (including being sufficient to grant Bank a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary), (b) provide to Bank appropriate certificates and powers and financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Subsidiary, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank; and (c) provide to Bank all other documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, including one or more opinions of counsel satisfactory to Bank, which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above. Any document, agreement, or instrument executed or issued pursuant to this Section 6.13 shall be a Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary formed or acquired by Borrower, and any such Foreign Subsidiary has total asset with a book value of less than Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000.00), then such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be required to become a party to the Loan Documents as a “Borrower” or “Guarantor” hereunder, and Borrower shall, at Bank’s request, grant and pledge to Bank a perfected security interest in up to sixty-six percent (66%) of the voting stock, units or other evidence of ownership of such Foreign Subsidiary and one hundred percent (100%) of all other non-voting stock, units or other evidence of ownership of such Foreign Subsidiary; (ii) Borrower shall not be required to cause any of the Irish Subsidiary, the UK Subsidiary and/or the Canadian Subsidiary to comply with this Section 6.13 until requested by Bank, in its good faith business discretion; and (iii) Borrower shall not be required to cause TTAGG, Inc., a Delaware corporation to comply with this Section 6.13.”
