Exhibit 10.1

 

WAIVER AND FIRST AMENDMENT TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

This Waiver and First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of January 13, 2017, by and between WESTERN ALLIANCE BANK, an Arizona corporation (“Bank”) and VIVEVE MEDICAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and VIVEVE, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Viveve”) (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, “Borrower”).

 

RECITALS

 

Borrower and Bank are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 20, 2016, as amended from time to time (the “Agreement”). The parties desire to amend the Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Amendment.

 

Borrower is currently in default pursuant to Section 8.2(a) of the Agreement due to Borrower’s failure to comply with the Performance to Plan; Minimum Cash covenant set forth in Section 6.8 of the Agreement for the measuring periods ending October 31, 2016 and November 30, 2016 (the “Existing Covenant Default”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.     The following defined term in Section 1.1 of the Agreement hereby is amended and restated as follows:

 

“Final Payment Percentage” is four percent (4.00%).

 

2.     Section 6.8 of the Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

6.8     Financial Covenants.

 

(a)     Performance to Plan. Borrower’s actual trailing three-month revenues, as of any date of determination, shall be no less than eighty percent (80%) of Borrower’s projected revenues (the “Revenue Covenant”), delivered to Bank prior to the Closing Date and dated March 3, 2016 (for such measurement periods through December 31, 2016; Projections for periods thereafter shall be delivered to and approved in writing by Bank, provided that such updated Projections shall be delivered to Bank no later than January 31 of each year during the term hereof); provided that Borrower shall not be required to comply with the Revenue Covenant as long as Borrower at all times maintains a ratio of (i) minimum unrestricted cash in accounts with Bank to (ii) Indebtedness, of at least 1.25 to 1.00.

 

(b)     Minimum Liquidity.     At all times until Borrower maintains a ratio of (i) minimum unrestricted cash in accounts with Bank to (ii) Indebtedness, of at least 1.25 to 1.00, Borrower shall maintain at all times unrestricted cash in accounts with Bank in an amount equal to or greater than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (it being understood and agreed that once the Borrower achieves a ratio of (i) minimum unrestricted cash in accounts with Bank to (ii) Indebtedness, of at least 1.25 to 1.00, this Section 6.8(b) shall no longer apply, notwithstanding that such ratio is not achieved in any future period).”

 

3.     Exhibit C of the Agreement hereby is replaced with Exhibit C attached hereto.

 

4.     Borrower hereby acknowledges and Bank hereby waives the Existing Covenant Default, as well as any Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.8 resulting from Borrower’s misrepresentation that no Default or Event of Default existed under the Agreement in connection with the Existing Covenant Default (collectively, the “Designated Defaults”).

 

5.     Except for the waiver of the Designated Defaults under this Amendment, no course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right with respect to any Event of Default, other than the Designated Defaults. Except as expressly provided herein, Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.

 

 

 
 

 

 

6.     Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.

 

7.     Borrower represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that, after giving effect to this Amendment, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

8.     As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:

 

(a)     this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;

 

(b)     a Certificate of the Secretary of Borrower with respect to incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of this Amendment; and

 

(c)     all reasonable Bank Expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment, which may be debited from any of Borrower's accounts.

 

9.     This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
