THIS AMENDING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of May 5, 2008, is made by and among OccuLogix, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation with executive offices located at 2600 Skymark Avenue, Building 9, Suite 201, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 5B2, Canada, the lenders listed on the Schedule of New Lenders attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “New Lenders”), the lenders listed on the Schedule of Required Lenders attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Required Lenders”) and Marchant Securities Inc. (the “Collateral Agent”), an Ontario corporation with offices located at 100 York Boulevard, Suite 404, Richmond Hill, Ontario, L4B 1J8, Canada. 

BACKGROUND

A.           Reference is made to the Loan Agreement, dated as of February 19, 2008, by and among the Company, the lenders listed on the Schedule of Lenders attached as Exhibit A thereto and the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which the lenders party thereto advanced to the Company a loan in an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$3,000,000 (the “Loan Agreement”).  A true and correct copy of the Loan Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C, and the lenders party to the Loan Agreement are referred to hereinafter as the “Original Lenders”.

B.           Reference also is made to the Share Pledge Agreement, dated as of February 19, 2008, by the Company in favor of the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as the collateral agent under the Loan Agreement, pursuant to which the Company pledged its 1,754,589 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock of OcuSense, Inc. to secure its indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under or in connection with the Loan Agreement (the “Share Pledge Agreement”).

C.           The Company currently has a need for additional short-term financing in an aggregate amount of U.S.$300,000.  The New Lenders have agreed to make available to the Company a loan in an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$300,000 (the “Additional Loan”) on the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, and the Required Lenders have consented to the amendments to the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement provided for in this Agreement.

D.           Each of the New Lenders has agreed to advance the amount set forth opposite his, her or its name on the Schedule of New Lenders attached hereto as Exhibit A, representing his, her or its portion of the Additional Loan (the “Individual New Lender’s Advance”).

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company, the New Lenders, the Required Lenders and the Collateral Agent hereby agree as follows:

 
 

 

1.             Definitions.  In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

2.             Advance.  Concurrently with his, her or its execution and delivery of this Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in Section 16 hereof, each New Lender shall advance to the Company his, her or its Individual New Lender’s Advance by wire transfer in accordance with the Company’s instructions or by personal check.

3.             Terms and Conditions of Loan Agreement Applicable to Additional Loan.  Except as may be specifically provided herein, the New Lenders shall have all of the same rights with respect to, and owe all of the same obligations to, the other parties to the Loan Agreement that the Original Lenders have and owe, respectively, under the Loan Agreement, all as though the New Lenders were among the Original Lenders thereunder and as though the New Lenders were “Lenders” (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).  Except as may be specifically provided herein, the Company shall have all of the same rights with respect to, and owe all of the same obligations to, the New Lenders as it has and owes, respectively, to the Original Lenders under the Loan Agreement, all as though the New Lenders were among the Original Lenders thereunder and as though the New Lenders were “Lenders” (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).  Except as may be specifically provided herein, the Loan Agreement shall be read and construed as though the Additional Loan formed part of the Loan.

4.             Secured Obligations of Share Pledge Agreement.  The Company and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that the Share Pledge Agreement secures all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities, present or future, absolute or contingent, matured or not, at any time owing by the Company to any of the Original Lenders or the New Lenders, or remaining unpaid to any of the Original Lenders or the New Lenders, under or in connection with the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby (including in connection with the Loan or the Additional Loan) and that the definition of “Secured Obligations” in the Loan Agreement and in the Share Pledge Agreement shall be read and construed accordingly.  The Company and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that the Collateral is being held by the Collateral Agent for the rateable benefit of the Original Lenders and the New Lenders and that the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement shall be read and construed accordingly.

5.             Mutatis Mutandis Construction of Loan Agreement and Share Pledge Agreement.  The Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement shall be read and construed mutatis mutandis so as to give full effect to the intention of Sections 3 and 4 hereof.

6.             Maturity Date.  The maturity date of the Additional Loan shall be the Maturity Date.

7.             Interest.  From the date hereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise and both before and after default), interest shall accrue on the principal amounts outstanding hereunder with respect to the Additional Loan on a quarterly basis, without allowance or deduction, at a rate of 12% per annum, and shall be payable on the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the Pre-payment Date and (iii) an Event of Default.  For illustrative purposes, the Schedule of Interest attached hereto as Exhibit D sets forth the amount of interest that will be payable to each of the New Lenders if the Additional Loan remains outstanding until the Maturity Date.

 
2

 

8.             Repayment.  In the absence of any pre-payment of the Additional Loan pursuant to Section 9 hereof or any Event of Default, on the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay the New Lenders, in cash, the outstanding principal amount of the Additional Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, calculated in accordance with Section 7 hereof.  For greater certainty, the cash paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 8 shall be allocated among the New Lenders on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each New Lender’s Individual New Lender’s Advance.

9.             Pre-payment.  If the Company exercises its option to pre-pay the Loan pursuant to Section 1.5 of the Loan Agreement, the Company shall pre-pay the Additional Loan in full in the same manner as it pre-pays the Loan.  In that circumstance, the Securities to be issued to the Original Lenders and the New Lenders in pre-payment of the Loan and the Additional Loan, respectively, shall be allocated among all of them on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Original Lender’s Individual Lender’s Advance and each New Lender’s Individual New Lender’s Advance, as applicable.  For greater certainty, in no event, shall the Company be obligated to issue Warrants exercisable into Warrant Shares in a number that exceeds 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the Pre-payment Date.

13.           Appointment and Indemnification of Collateral Agent.  References to the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement in this Section 13 shall be read and construed as references to the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement, each as amended hereby.

(a)           Each of the New Lenders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Collateral Agent as the collateral agent of such New Lender under the Share Pledge Agreement, and each of the New Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on such New Lender’s behalf under the Share Pledge Agreement, and to exercise such powers and perform such duties, as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the provisions of the Loan Agreement and/or the Share Pledge Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including the power to execute documents on behalf of the New Lenders.  The Collateral Agent hereby accepts such designation and appointment and agrees to perform its obligations as collateral agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement.  Without derogating from the generality of Sections 3 or 5 hereof, notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Loan Agreement or the Share Pledge Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any New Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Agreement or the Share Pledge Agreement or otherwise shall exist against the Collateral Agent.

 
3

 

(b)           Each of the New Lenders hereby agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent in its capacity as collateral agent, ratably in accordance with his, her or its Individual New Lender’s Advance, from and against the Collateral Agent’s Claims, provided, however, that no New Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 13(b) shall survive until the first anniversary of the date of payment in full of the Secured Obligations (for greater certainty, as such defined term has been amended hereby).

14.           Covenants of Company.  Without derogating from the generality of Sections 3 or 5 hereof, the Company hereby agrees, in favor of the New Lenders, to each of the covenants contained in Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement.

15.           Covenants of New Lenders.  Without derogating from the generality of Sections 3 or 5 hereof, each of the New Lenders (as to himself, herself or itself and for no other New Lender) hereby agrees, in favor of the Company, to each of the covenants contained in Section 4.2 of the Loan Agreement.  For greater certainty, references to the “Closing” contained in Section 4.2 of the Loan Agreement shall be read and construed as references to the “Additional Loan Closing” (defined below).

16.           Closing Conditions in Favor of New Lenders.  The obligation of each of the New Lenders to advance his, her or its Individual New Lender’s Advance is subject to the satisfaction, or the waiver by such New Lender, on or prior to such advance (the “Additional Loan Closing”) of each of the following conditions:

(a)           Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties made by the Company pursuant to Section 11 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Additional Loan Closing as though made on and as of such date; and

(b)           Performance.  The Company shall have performed, satisfied and complied with, in all material respects, all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement, and by the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement, each as amended hereby, to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Additional Loan Closing.

17.           Closing Conditions in Favor of Company.  The entering into of this Agreement by the Company with each of the New Lenders, and the acceptance by the Company of such New Lender’s Individual New Lender’s Advance, is subject to the satisfaction, or the waiver by the Company, at or prior to the Additional Loan Closing, of each of the following conditions:

 
4

 

(a)           Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties made by such New Lender pursuant to Section 12 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Additional Loan Closing as though made on and as of such date;

(b)           Accredited Investor Certificate.  Such New Lender shall have completed and executed and delivered the Accredited Investor Certificate.

(c)           Performance.  Such New Lender shall have performed, satisfied and complied with, in all material respects, all other covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement, and by the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement, each as amended hereby, to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Additional Loan Closing.

18.           Amendments; Waivers.  No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived except in a written instrument signed, (i) in the case of an amendment, by the Company, Required Lenders and the Collateral Agent or (ii) in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought.  No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

19.           Notices.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Loan Agreement.

20.           Survival.  All representations and warranties and covenants made or given pursuant hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the advance by each of the New Lenders of his, her or its Individual New Lender’s Advance.

21.           Headings.  The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

22.           Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Required Lenders.  Without derogating from the obligation contained in Section 4.2(d) of the Loan Agreement (which obligation, among others, has been adopted explicitly by each of the New Lenders pursuant to Section 15 hereof), each of the New Lenders may assign his, her or its rights and obligations under, and his, her or its right, title and interest in and to, this Agreement to a U.S. or Canadian resident third party approved by the Company in writing (which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably) that qualifies as an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if such third party is a resident of the U.S., and an “accredited investor” as defined in National Instrument 45-106, if such third party is a resident of Canada, and that certifies in writing its “accredited investor” status and agrees, in writing to assume such New Lender’s obligations under this Agreement.

23.           No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person or entity.

LOAN AGREEMENT

THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ___________________, 2008, is made by and among OccuLogix, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation with executive offices located at 2600 Skymark Avenue, Building 9, Suite 201, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 5B2, Canada, the lenders listed on the Schedule of Lenders attached hereto as Exhibit A (individually, a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”) and Marchant Securities Inc. (the “Collateral Agent”), an Ontario corporation with offices located at 100 York Boulevard, Suite 404, Richmond Hill, Ontario, L4B 1J8, Canada.

BACKGROUND

A.            The Lenders have agreed to make available to the Company a loan in an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$3,000,000 (the “Loan”) on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Each of the Lenders has agreed to advance the amount set forth opposite his, her or its name on Exhibit A, representing his, her or its portion of the Loan (the “Individual Lender’s Advance”).

B.             The Company is attempting to raise additional capital by way of a private placement of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

C.             The Company’s obligations under this Agreement will be secured by a pledge of 1,754,589 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock of OcuSense, Inc. (“OcuSense”), representing 50.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of OcuSense, of which the Company is the legal and beneficial owner.

D.             The proceeds of the Loan will be used (i) to fulfill the Company’s obligation, when such obligation becomes due and owing, to pay the last U.S.$2,000,000 installment of the purchase price payable to OcuSense pursuant to the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 30, 2006, by and among OcuSense and the Company, as amended on October 29, 2007, and (ii) for general corporate purposes.

E.             Each of the Lenders is an “accredited investor” pursuant to Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and an “accredited investor” pursuant to National Instrument 45-106—Prospectus and Registration Exemptions (“NI 45-106”).

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Lenders hereby agree as follows:

 

 

ARTICLE I
LOAN

1.1           Advance.  Concurrently with his, her or its execution and delivery of this Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in Article V in favor of the Lenders, each Lender shall advance to the Company his, her or its Individual Lender’s Advance by wire transfer in accordance with the Company’s instructions or by personal check.

1.2           Maturity Date.  The maturity date of the Loan (the “Maturity Date”) shall be the 180th day following the date hereof, if the Company’s management proxy statement prepared and filed in connection with the Private Placement (defined below) does not become subject to “review” by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any Canadian securities regulatory authority having jurisdiction (either, a “Securities Regulator”).  If such management proxy statement becomes subject to “review” by a Securities Regulator, then the Maturity Date shall be the 270th day following the date hereof.  The Company shall notify the Lenders as promptly as reasonably possible of whether or not such management proxy statement has become subject to “review” by a Securities Regulator.

1.3           Interest.  From the date hereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise and both before and after default), interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amounts outstanding hereunder on a quarterly basis, without allowance or deduction, at a rate of 12% per annum, and shall be payable on the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the Pre-payment Date (defined below) and (iii) an Event of Default (defined below).  For illustrative purposes, the Schedule of Interest attached hereto as Exhibit B sets forth the amount of interest that will be payable to each of the Lenders if the Loan remains outstanding until the Maturity Date.

1.4           Repayment.  In the absence of any pre-payment of the Loan pursuant to Section 1.5 or any Event of Default (defined below), on the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay the Lenders, in cash, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, calculated in accordance with Section 1.3.  For greater certainty, the cash paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be allocated among the Lenders on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Lender’s Individual Lender’s Advance.

1.5           Pre-payment.  At its option, and within its sole discretion, the Company may pre-pay the Loan in full at any time prior to the Maturity Date (the “Pre-Payment Date”) by:

(a)           (i) paying to the Lenders, in cash, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, calculated in accordance with Section 1.3, and (ii) issuing to the Lenders warrants (the “Warrants”), substantially in the form of the Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit C, exercisable into shares of the Common Stock, at an exercise price of U.S.$0.10 per share, and exercisable into shares of the Common Stock in an aggregate number equal to approximately 19.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the Pre-payment Date but which, in no event, shall exceed 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the Pre-payment Date (the “Warrant Shares”); or

 
2

 

(b)           by no later than the tenth day following the date of closing of a private placement by the Company of shares of the Common Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of no less than U.S.$4,000,000 (the “Private Placement”), issuing to the Lenders shares of the Common Stock in an aggregate amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, calculated in accordance with Section 1.3, at a per share price that is 15% less than the per share price paid by the investors in the Private Placement but on other terms and conditions substantially similar to those accepted by the investors in the Private Placement, provided that the Company shall have obtained all of the corporate and regulatory approvals reasonably necessary for the issuance to the Lenders of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to this Section 1.5(b).

In the event of any pre-payment of the Loan pursuant to Section 1.5(a), the Warrants shall be allocated among the Lenders on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Lender’s Individual Lender’s Advance.  Each of the Warrants shall be exercisable into a whole number of Warrant Shares, and, under no circumstance, shall the Company be obligated to issue a Warrant which, when exercised, will be exercisable into, or otherwise give rise to any obligation on the part of the Company to issue, a fractional Warrant Share.  For greater certainty, the cash portion of any pre-payment of the Loan pursuant to Section 1.5(a) shall be allocated among the Lenders on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Lender’s Individual Lender’s Advance.

(h)             Restricted Securities.  Such Lender understands that the Securities will be characterized as “restricted securities” under U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as, if issued, they will be acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under U.S. federal securities laws and applicable regulations, the Securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.  Such Lender acknowledges that all certificates representing any of the Securities will bear a restrictive legend to the foregoing effect and hereby consents to the transfer agent for the Common Stock making a notation on its records to implement the restrictions on transfer described herein.  Such Lender acknowledges that the Securities will not be qualified for distribution to the public in Canada and that such Lender will not, directly or indirectly, offer or re-sell the Securities in Canada or to any Canadian resident, or to any person or entity who is acting on behalf of a Canadian resident or to any person or entity whom he, she or it believes intends to re-offer, re-sell or deliver any of the Securities in Canada, unless permitted under applicable Canadian provincial and territorial securities laws and regulations.

OCCULOGIX, INC.

WARRANT

 
Warrant No.  _______
Dated:  ■, 2008
 
OCCULOGIX, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received, ______________________________ or its registered assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled to purchase from the Company up to a total of _________________ shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company (each such share, a “Warrant Share” and all such shares, the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price equal to U.S.$0.10 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 9, the “Exercise Price”), at any time on or after the 180th day following the Pre-Payment Date (as defined in the Loan Agreement (defined below)) (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and through and including the date that is five years from the date of issuance hereof (the “Expiration Date”), and subject to the following terms and conditions.  This Warrant (this “Warrant”) is one of a series of similar warrants issued pursuant to Section 1.5(a) of that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of ■, 2008 by and among the Company, the Lenders identified therein and Marchant Securities Inc. (the “Loan Agreement”).  All such warrants are referred to herein, collectively, as the “Warrants.”

 

 

1.           Definitions.  In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

2.           Registration of Warrant.  The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the Holder of record hereof from time to time.  The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

3.           Registration of Transfers.  The Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) or to the Company at its address specified herein.  Upon any such registration of transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder.  The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.

4.           Exercise and Duration of Warrants.

(a)           This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder at any time and from time to time on or after the Initial Exercise Date to and including the Expiration Date.  At 6:30 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value; provided that, if the average of the Closing Prices (defined below) for the five Trading Days (defined below) immediately prior to (but not including) the Expiration Date exceeds the Exercise Price on the Expiration Date, then this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised in full (to the extent not previously exercised) on a “cashless exercise” basis at 6:30 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Expiration Date.  For purposes of this Warrant, “Closing Price” means, for any date, the closing price per share of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary stock market or exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted (the “Primary Trading Market”).  For purposes of this Warrant, “Trading Day” means (i) any day on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted and traded on the Primary Trading Market, or (ii) if trading ceases to occur on the Primary Trading Market, any business day in the State of New York.

(b)           A Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto (the “Exercise Notice”), appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if so indicated in the Exercise Notice), and the date such items are delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notices provision hereof) is an “Exercise Date”.  The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder.  Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

 

 

5.           Delivery of Warrant Shares.

(a)           Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five Trading Days after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder, and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends unless the Warrant Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  The Holder, or any person or entity so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date.  The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, use its best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through The Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.

(b)           This Warrant is exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares.  Upon surrender of this Warrant following one or more partial exercises, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

(c)           In addition to any other rights available to a Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing Warrant Shares by the third Trading Day after the date on which delivery of such certificate is required by this Warrant, and if after such third Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of the Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of the Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of the Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing such shares of the Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) the number of such shares of the Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Price on the date of the event giving rise to the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate.

(d)           The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or entity or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other person or entity of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of the Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

 

6.           Charges, Taxes and Expenses.  Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder.  The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

7.           Replacement of Warrant.  If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and a customary and reasonable bond or indemnity, if requested.  Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third party costs as the Company may prescribe.

8.           Reservation of Warrant Shares.  The Company covenants that it will, at all times, reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from pre-emptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (after giving effect to the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9, if any).  The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable.  The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of the Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

9.           Certain Adjustments.  The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

(a)           Stock Dividends and Splits.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on the Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of the Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a larger number of shares or (iii) combines outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

 

(b)           Pro Rata Distributions.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to holders of the Common Stock (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of the Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security or (iv) any other asset other than cash dividends out of earnings (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled, upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, to receive the amount of Distributed Property which would have been payable to the Holder, had the Holder been the holder of such Warrant Shares on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such Distributed Property.  The Company will, at all times, set aside in escrow and keep available for distribution to the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, a portion of the Distributed Property to satisfy the distribution to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(c)           Fundamental Transactions.  If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected (all such transactions being hereinafter referred to as a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and, in any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Exercise Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any share of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof.  The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless, prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase and the other obligations under this Warrant.  The provisions of this Section 9(c) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions, each of which transactions shall also constitute a Fundamental Transaction.

 

 

(d)           Number of Warrant Shares.  Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased (as the case may be) proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the decreased or increased (as the case may be) number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

(e)           Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable.  The number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of the Common Stock.

(f)           Notice of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.  Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Transfer Agent.

(g)           Notice of Corporate Events.  If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of the Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating, or solicits stockholder approval for, any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least ten calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice.

10.           Payment of Exercise Price.  The Holder shall pay the Exercise Price in immediately available funds; provided, however, that the Holder may satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a “cashless exercise”, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

 

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.

B = the Exercise Price.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

11.           Fractional Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue, or cause to be issued, fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 11, be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

12.           Notices.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in the Loan Agreement prior to 6:30 p.m. (Eastern time) on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in the Loan Agreement on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the Trading Day following the date of delivery to the courier service, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.  The address for such notices or communications shall be as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

13.           Warrant Agent.  The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon 30 days’ notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent.  Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged, or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party, or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or stockholder services business, shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act.  Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s last address as shown on the Warrant Register.

 

 

14.           Miscellaneous.

(a)           Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth on the first page hereof, this Warrant may be assigned by the Holder.  This Warrant may not be assigned by the Company except to a successor in the event of a Fundamental Transaction.  This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any person or entity other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant.  This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and assigns.

(b)           The Company will not, by amendment of its governing documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will, at all times and in good faith, assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, (ii) will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.

(c)           GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS WARRANT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR DISCUSSED HEREIN AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, ANY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT AND THAT SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF VIA REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL OR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY (WITH EVIDENCE OF DELIVERY) TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS IN EFFECT FOR NOTICES TO IT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE GOOD AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND NOTICE THEREOF.  NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY ANY RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

(e)           In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not, in any way, be affected or impaired thereby, and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

Exhibit D

SHARE PLEDGE AGREEMENT

THIS SHARE PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this “Share Pledge Agreement”), dated as of ■, 2008, is made by OccuLogix, Inc. (the “Pledgor”), a Delaware corporation with executive offices located at 2600 Skymark Avenue, Building 9, Suite 201, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 5B2, Canada, in favor of Marchant Securities Inc. (the “Pledgee”), in its capacity as the Collateral Agent under that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Pledgor, the Lenders identified therein and the Pledgee (the “Loan Agreement”), an Ontario corporation with offices located at 100 York Boulevard, Suite 404, Richmond Hill, Ontario, L4B 1J8, Canada.

BACKGROUND

A.           Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lenders identified therein have agreed to make available to the Pledgor a loan in an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$3,000,000.

B.           The Pledgor agreed to secure its obligations under the Loan Agreement by a pledge of 1,754,589 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock of OcuSense, Inc. (the “Pledged Shares”), representing 50.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of OcuSense, Inc., of which the Pledgor is the legal and beneficial owner, pursuant to this Share Pledge Agreement.

C.           Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, each of the Lenders irrevocably designated and appointed the Pledgee as the collateral agent of such Lender under this Share Pledge Agreement, for the rateable benefit of the Lenders.

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants contained in this Share Pledge Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Pledgor and the Pledgee hereby agree as follows:

1.           Definitions.  In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Share Pledge Agreement, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

2.           Collateral.  The Pledged Shares, together with all proceeds thereof, including any securities or monies received on account thereof and at the time held by the Pledgee hereunder, are referred to herein as the “Collateral”.

3.           Secured Obligations.  This Share Pledge Agreement is made by the Pledgor for the benefit of the Pledgee in order to secure all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities, present or future, absolute or contingent, matured or not, at any time owing by the Pledgor to any of the Lenders, or remaining unpaid to any of the Lenders, under or in connection with the Loan Agreement, including:

 

 

(a)           the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, including upon the occurrence of an Event of Default) of all obligations and liabilities of the Pledgor, now existing or hereafter incurred under, or arising out of or in connection with, the Loan Agreement; and

(b)           in the event of any proceeding for the collection of the Secured Obligations (defined below) or the enforcement of this Share Pledge Agreement after the failure to repay the Loan in full when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, including upon the occurrence of an Event of Default), the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling or otherwise disposing of or realizing on the Collateral, or of any exercise by the Pledgee of its rights hereunder, together with reasonable legal fees and disbursements actually incurred;

all such indebtedness, obligations and liabilities being referred to herein as the “Secured Obligations”.

4.           Pledge.  In order to secure the full and prompt payment when due of the Secured Obligations and for the purposes set forth in Section 3, the Pledgor hereby:  (i) grants to the Pledgee a continuing first priority security interest in the Collateral; (ii) pledges the Pledged Shares to, and deposits them with, the Pledgee and agrees to deliver to the Pledgee all certificates representing the Pledged Shares, accompanied by undated stock transfer powers duly executed in blank on behalf of the Pledgor, or such other instruments of transfer as are reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee, which certificates, stock transfer powers and other instruments of transfer, if any, at the Pledgee’s option, may be registered in the name of the Pledgee or its nominee on and after the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing; and (iii) assigns, transfers, hypothecates, mortgages, charges and sets over to the Pledgee all of the Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to the Pledged Shares; provided, however, that the Pledgor shall be permitted to sell, or otherwise dispose of, the Collateral if the proceeds of such sale or disposition shall be sufficient to pay the Secured Obligations in full and shall be so used.  The Pledgee hereby agrees, in connection with such sale or disposition, to make, do and execute and deliver, or cause to be made, done and executed and delivered, such further acts, deeds, assurances, documents and things as the Pledgor reasonably requests, including, without limitation, to return to the Pledgor the certificate representing the Pledged Shares.

5.           Attachment.  The Pledgor hereby acknowledges that the security interest hereby created attaches upon the execution of this Share Pledge Agreement (or, in the case of any after-acquired property, upon the date of acquisition by the Pledgor of any rights therein), that value has been given by the Pledgee and that the Pledgor has (or, in the case of any after-acquired property, will have) rights in the Collateral or the power to transfer rights in the Collateral to the Pledgee.

6.           Representations and Warranties.  The Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to the Pledgee as follows:

 

 

(a)           The Pledgor has the requisite corporate authority and the legal right to pledge the Pledged Shares pursuant to this Share Pledge Agreement.

(b)           The Pledgor is the legal and beneficial owner of, and has good and valid title to, the Pledged Shares, free from any liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances or any rights of others that rank prior to, or pari passu with, the security interested created hereby, other than such liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances or rights as may be permitted under the Loan Agreement.

(c)           The Pledged Shares have been duly and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are not subject to any liens or any pre-emptive or similar rights.

7.           Voting, etc. in Absence of Event of Default.  Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting rights attaching to the Pledged Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof.  The Pledgor’s entitlement to exercise such voting rights and to give such consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease for so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case Section 9 shall become applicable.

8.           Dividends and Other Distributions.  Until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, all non-cash dividends and other non-cash amounts paid or payable in respect of the Pledged Shares (including, without limitation, the below-listed items) shall form part of the Collateral and shall be held by the Pledgee as part of the Collateral:

(a)           all other or additional stock, or other securities or property (other than cash), paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Pledged Shares;

(b)           all other or additional stock, or other securities or property (other than cash), paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Shares by reason of a stock split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or other similar transaction; and

(c)           all other or additional stock, or other securities or property (other than cash), paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Shares by reason of a consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or other similar transaction.

Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all cash dividends and other cash amounts paid or payable in respect of the Pledged Shares shall not form part of the Collateral and shall not be held by the Pledgee as part of the Collateral but, rather, shall be paid directly to the Pledgor.

9.           Remedies.   Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of its rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in the Pledgee by this Share Pledge Agreement or the Loan Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights with respect to the Collateral, and, without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgee shall be entitled to take any or all of the following actions, all of which the Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

 

 

(a)           to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral;

(b)           to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name or names of its nominee or nominees;

(c)           to vote all or any part of the Collateral and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof, and otherwise to act as though it were the outright owner thereof, with the Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so; and

(d)           to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price and on such other terms as the Pledgee may determine in its reasonable discretion, provided that at least ten days’ prior written notice of such sale shall be given to the Pledgor, with each purchaser at any such sale holding the Collateral so sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waiving and releasing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and any right of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Secured Obligations or otherwise.

10.           Remedies Cumulative.  Each right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Share Pledge Agreement or the Loan Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, every other such right, power or remedy.  The exercise, or the commencement of the exercise, by the Pledgee of any right, power or remedy provided for in this Share Pledge Agreement or the Loan Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by the Pledgee of any or all such other rights, powers and remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof.  Unless otherwise required by this Share Pledge Agreement or the Loan Agreement, no notice to, or demand on, the Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or shall constitute a waiver of any right of the Pledgee to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

11.           Further Assurances.  The Pledgor hereby agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing and, at the Pledgor’s expense, filing and re-filing under the Uniform Commercial Code and similar legislation in Canada such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and in such public offices as the Pledgee, acting reasonably, may deem necessary or advisable to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral, and the Pledgor hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relating to any or all of the Collateral without the Pledgor’s signature, where permitted by law, and agrees to make, do and execute and deliver, or cause to be made, done and executed and delivered, such further acts, deeds, assurances, documents and things as the Pledgee, acting reasonably, may require or deem advisable to carry out the purposes and intent of this Share Pledge Agreement and the Loan Agreement.

 

 

12.           Rights and Duties of the Pledgee.

(a)           The Pledgee may perform any of its duties under this Share Pledge Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Pledgee shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact, provided that they were selected by the Pledgee with reasonable care.

(b)           In holding the Collateral, the Pledgee and any nominee on its behalf shall be bound to exercise only the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to similar property of its own, of similar value held in the same place.  The Pledgee and any nominee on its behalf will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care with respect to the custody and preservation of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as the Pledgor reasonably requests in writing.  However, failure of the Pledgee or its nominee to comply with any such request will not, in and of itself, be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care.

13.           Discharge of Security.  In the event of a permitted sale or other disposition by the Pledgor of any of the Collateral, the security interest therein shall terminate automatically and be deemed discharged and released.  The Pledgee, at the Pledgor’s expense, shall execute and deliver such discharges and other instruments necessary or advisable for the purposes of releasing and discharging such security interest, of recording the provision or effect thereof in any public office where it may be registered or recorded and of more fully and effectively carrying out the intent of this Section 13.

14.           Termination and Release.  Upon the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, this Share Pledge Agreement shall terminate and, other than as explicitly provided herein, be of no further force or effect and the security interest in the Collateral shall be deemed discharged and released.  The Pledgee, at the Pledgor’s expense, shall execute and deliver such discharges and other instruments necessary or advisable for the purposes of releasing and discharging such security interest, of recording the provision or effect thereof in any public office where it may be registered or recorded and of more fully and effectively carrying out the intent of this Section 14.  The obligations under this Section 14 shall survive the termination of this Share Pledge Agreement.

15.           Amendments; Waivers.  No provision of this Share Pledge Agreement may be amended or waived except in a written instrument signed, (i) in the case of an amendment, by the Pledgor, Required Lenders and the Pledgee or (ii) in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought, provided that, in the case of waiver by the Pledgee, on behalf of all of the Lenders, such written instrument shall be signed by Required Lenders.  No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Share Pledge Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.  The Pledgee may enter into technical, minor or administrative amendments to this Share Pledge Agreement without the consent of the Lenders.

 

 

16.           Notices.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective in accordance with the notices provision of the Loan Agreement.

17.           Conflict.  To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Loan Agreement, on the one hand, and the provisions of this Share Pledge Agreement, on the other hand, the former shall prevail.

18.           Headings.  The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

19.           Successors and Assigns.  This Share Pledge Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

20.           Governing Law; Venue.  ALL QUESTIONS CONCERING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS SHARE PLEDGE AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO AND THE FEDERAL LAWS OF CANADA APPLICABLE THEREIN.  THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR DISCUSSED HEREIN, AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO, ANY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER.

21.           Execution.  This Share Pledge Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or e-mail transmission), all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or e-mail attachment, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or e-mail-attached signature page were an original thereof.

 

 

22.           Severability.  If any provision of this Share Pledge Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Share Pledge Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Share Pledge Agreement.

23.           Executed Copy.  The Pledgor acknowledges receipt of a fully executed copy of this Share Pledge Agreement.
