Exhibit 10.2
Loan and Security Agreement
     THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of the Effective Date between SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California corporation (“Bank”), on the one side, and XATA CORPORATION, a Minnesota corporation (“Xata”), and GEOLOGIC SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Geologic”) (Xata and Geologic are each individually referred to as a “Borrower” and collectively referred to as “Borrowers”), on the other side, provides the terms on which Bank shall lend to Borrowers and Borrowers shall repay Bank. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Loan and Security Agreement (as amended), with an Effective Date of December 17, 2004, between Xata and Bank (the “Prior Agreement”). The parties agree as follows:
     1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
     Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.
     2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
     2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrowers hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
     2.1.1 Revolving Advances.
          (a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to deduction of Reserves, Bank shall make Advances not exceeding the Availability Amount. Amounts borrowed hereunder may be repaid and, prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions precedent herein. The outstanding “Advances” under the Committed Revolving Line pursuant to the Prior Agreement shall be the beginning balance of the Advances under this Agreement, which Borrowers agree are owed without any defense, offset or counter-claim of any kind.
          (b) Streamline Period. During certain periods of time (each, a “Streamline Period”), provided that the Streamline Requirements are all met, Borrowers’ reporting requirements shall be reduced, and certain proceeds shall be deposited in Borrowers’ operating account(s) instead of being applied to the Advances, as set forth in other provisions of this Agreement. Such a Streamline Period shall be deemed to be in effect as of the Effective Date. If at any time during any Streamline Period the Streamline Requirements are not met, the Streamline Period shall immediately cease to be effective, and any terms or conditions of this Agreement that are dependent upon the existence of a Streamline Period will immediately revert to the respective terms and conditions that are to be in force when a Streamline Period is not in effect, without the need for any further action on the part of Bank or Borrowers. Further, if following the cessation of a Streamline Period the Streamline Requirements are thereafter satisfied for six consecutive months, Borrowers may elect to again put a Streamline Period into effect pursuant to the terms hereof by giving Bank at least 10 days prior written notice, specifying the date the Streamline Period is to begin. Thus, it is the intention of the parties that Borrowers have the opportunity for successive Streamline Periods to apply when and to the extent the conditions thereto are satisfied.
          (c) Termination; Repayment. The Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, when the principal amount of all Advances, the unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations relating to the Revolving Line shall be immediately due and payable.
     2.1.2 Letters of Credit Sublimit.
          (a) As part of the Revolving Line, Bank shall issue or have issued Letters of Credit for Borrowers’ account, provided that, after giving effect to such Letters of Credit: (1) the total of the amount of all

 


 

outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), plus an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Reserves, plus amounts utilized for Cash Management Services, shall not exceed $500,000; and (2) the total of the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), plus an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Reserves, plus amounts used for Cash Management Services, and plus the outstanding principal balance of any Advances (including any amounts used for Cash Management Services) shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Maximum Dollar Amount, or (ii) the Borrowing Base. The aggregate amounts utilized hereunder shall at all times reduce the amount otherwise available for Advances under the Revolving Line. If, on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrowers shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to 100% of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to said 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”). Borrowers agree to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request. Borrowers further agree to be bound by the regulations and interpretations of the issuer of any Letters of Credit guarantied by Bank and opened for any Borrower’s account or by Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued by Bank for any Borrower’s account, and Borrowers understand and agree that Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following any Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto.
          (b) The obligation of Borrowers 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.
          (c) Borrowers 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 Borrowers of the equivalent of the amount thereof (plus fees and charges in connection therewith such as wire, cable, SWIFT or similar charges) in Dollars at the then-prevailing rate of exchange in San Francisco, California, for sales of the Foreign Currency for transfer to the country issuing such Foreign Currency.
          (d) 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 ten percent (10%) 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.
     2.1.3 [Reserved]
     2.1.4 Cash Management Services Sublimit. Borrowers may use up to $500,000 of the Revolving Line for Bank’s cash management services which may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit card, and check cashing services identified in Bank’s various cash management services agreements (collectively, the “Cash Management Services”), provided that, after giving effect to such utilization: (1) the total of the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), plus an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Reserves, plus amounts utilized for Cash Management Services, shall not exceed $500,000; and (2) the total of the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), plus an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Reserves, plus amounts utilized for Cash Management Services, and plus the outstanding principal balance of any Advances (including any amounts used for Cash Management Services) shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Maximum Dollar Amount, or (ii) the Borrowing Base. Any amounts used by Borrowers for Cash Management Services will be treated as Advances under the Revolving Line, will accrue interest at the interest rate applicable to Advances, and will reduce the amount otherwise available for Credit Extensions thereunder.
     2.2 Overadvances. If at any time or for any reason the total of all outstanding Advances and all other monetary Obligations exceeds the Availability Amount (an “Overadvance”), Borrowers shall immediately pay the amount of the excess in cash to Bank. Without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to repay to Bank the amount of any Overadvance, Borrowers agree to pay Bank interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at the Default Rate.

     2.3 Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.
          (a) Interest Rate. Interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each month. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Line shall initially accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to one-half of one percentage point above the Prime Rate (the “Reduced Rate”). If while the Reduced Rate is in effect, Borrowers fail to (i) achieve the Threshold AQR as of the last day of a month, or (ii) provide the monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate that Bank uses to confirm the Borrowers’ Adjusted Quick Ratio by the date the same are due hereunder (without limitation upon any Default, Event of Default, Default Rate of interest, or other consequence that may be applicable because of any failure to provide financial statements or Compliance Certificates when due), then such interest rate shall increase such that the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Line shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to one percentage point above the Prime Rate (the “Increased Rate”), subject to again being decreased to the Reduced Rate as set forth below. If while the Increased Rate is in effect, Borrowers have achieved the Threshold AQR as of the last day of six consecutive months (the “Threshold Period”), and no Event of Default then exists, then such interest rate shall decrease such that the Reduced Rate shall go into effect, subject to again being increased to the Increased Rate as set forth above. Reductions in the interest rate as a result of Borrowers achieving Threshold AQRs shall be effective (i) on the first day of the second month immediately following the end of the Threshold Period for which Borrower achieved the Threshold AQRs, provided that prior to such date Bank has received Borrowers’ monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate that establish, to Bank’s satisfaction in its good faith business judgment, the applicable Adjusted Quick Ratios, but (ii) if prior to such date Bank has not received such monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate (without limitation upon any Default, Event of Default, Default Rate of interest, or other consequence that may be applicable because of any failure to provide financial statements or Compliance Certificates when due), then such change shall be effective five Business Days after Bank receives such financial statements and Compliance Certificate. (For example, if the rate in effect had been the Prime Rate plus one percentage point and then on October 27, 2008 the Borrowers provide Bank with monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate establishing that the Adjusted Quick Ratio was 1.25 to1.00 as of September 30, 2008, then the interest rate shall reduce to the Prime Rate plus one-half of one percentage point as of November 1, 2008; but in the same situation if the Borrowers did not provide Bank with monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate until November 1, 2008, then such reduction would not be effective until the fifth Business Day following November 1, 2008.) Increases in the interest rate as a result of Borrowers’ failure to achieve a Threshold AQR shall be effective on the first day of the second month immediately following the date for which Borrowers failed to achieve the Threshold AQR regardless of when Bank receives the financial statements and Compliance Certificate that establish, to Bank’s satisfaction in its good faith business judgment, the applicable Adjusted Quick Ratio. (For example, if the rate in effect had been the Prime Rate plus one-half of one percentage point and then on November 15, 2008 the Borrowers provide Bank with monthly financial statements and Compliance Certificate establishing that the Adjusted Quick Ratio was 1.20 to 1.00 as of September 30, 2008, then the interest rate shall increase to the Prime Rate plus one percentage point, retroactively, as of November 1, 2008 (without limitation upon any Default, Event of Default, Default Rate of interest, or other consequence that may be applicable because of any failure to provide financial statements or Compliance Certificates when due). Such increases shall be effective retroactively even if any Borrower has already paid interest, or Bank has already charged any Borrower’s account, at the previously effective lower rate, and Borrowers shall immediately pay Bank any resulting underpayment.
          (b) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is four percentage points above the rate which is otherwise applicable to the Obligations (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.
          (c) Adjustment to Interest Rate. Changes to the interest rate of any Credit Extension based on changes to the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of any change to the Prime Rate and to the extent of any such change.
          (d) 360-Day Year. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
          (e) Debit of Accounts. Bank may debit any of any Borrower’s deposit accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or any other amounts any Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.

          (f) Payment; Interest Computation; Float Charge. Interest is payable monthly on the last calendar day of each month. In computing interest on the Obligations, all Payments received after 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on any day shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. In addition, so long as any principal or interest with respect to any Credit Extension remains outstanding, Bank shall be entitled to charge Borrowers a “float” charge in an amount equal to two (2) Business Days interest, at the interest rate applicable to the Advances, on all payments received by Bank, at a time when a Streamline Period is not in effect, that are not in the form of immediately available funds. Said float charge is not included in interest for purposes of computing minimum monthly interest (if any) under this Agreement. The float charge for each month shall be payable on the last day of the month. Bank shall not, however, be required to credit any Borrower’s account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Bank in its good faith business judgment, and Bank may charge Borrower’s Designated Deposit Account(s) for the amount of any item of payment which is returned to Bank unpaid.
     2.4 Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Bank:
          (a) Commitment Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee of $40,000, on the Effective Date; and
          (b) Letter of Credit Fee. Bank’s customary fees and expenses for the issuance or renewal of Letters of Credit, including, without limitation, a Letter of Credit Fee of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per annum of the face amount of each Letter of Credit issued, upon the issuance or renewal of such Letter of Credit by Bank; and
          (c) Early Termination Fee. An early termination fee as provided by Section 12.1; and
          (d) Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee. A fee (the “Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee”), which fee shall be paid quarterly on the last day of each month following each quarter and on any earlier terminations of this Agreement, in arrears, on a calendar year basis, in an amount equal to 0.375% per annum of the average unused portion of the Revolving Line, as determined by Bank. Borrowers shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of any Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee previously earned by Bank pursuant to this Section notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or suspension or termination of Bank’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder, including during any Streamline Period; and
          (e) Collateral Monitoring Fee. A collateral monitoring fee of $1,500 for each month during which the Streamline Period is not in effect for the entire month, payable in arrears on the last day of each month (prorated for any partial month at the beginning and upon termination of this Agreement); and
          (f) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.
     3 CONDITIONS OF LOANS

Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee.
     4 CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
     4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Each Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof. Borrowers represent, warrant, and covenant that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien under this Agreement). If any Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim, such Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by such Borrower of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank. The grant of security interest and pledge by Xata contained herein is without limitation on the security interest granted by Xata under any other Loan Documents and without limitation on the security interest granted by Xata under the Prior Agreement, which security interest granted under the Prior Agreement shall continue, uninterrupted, as amended and restated by this Agreement.
     If this Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrowers.
     4.2 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrowers, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrowers or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code. ‘
     4.3 Lease Receivables. Bank agrees, from time to time at Borrowers’ request, to release its security interest against Lease Receivables to the extent that Borrowers are financing such Lease Receivables with another finance company, provided that Borrowers are not then financing such Lease Receivables with Bank and no Default or Event of Default then exits.
     5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
          Borrower represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
     5.1 Due Organization and Authorization. Borrower is duly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); (e) Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete (it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the

Borrower shall take such steps as Bank requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for (x) all such licenses or agreements to be deemed “Collateral” and for Bank to have a security interest in the same that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future, and (y) Bank to have the ability in the event of a liquidation of any Collateral to dispose of such Collateral in accordance with Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     5.6 Solvency. Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
     5.7 Regulatory Compliance. Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act.

Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted.

Borrower has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower. Borrower may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the governmental authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien”. Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.
     5.10 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions solely as working capital, and to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes; provided that Xata may also use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions to acquire all of the stock of Geologic pursuant to the Geologic Solutions Acquisition.
     5.11 Full Disclosure. No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the

-8-


 

certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).
     5.12 Adjusted Quick Ratio. Borrowers’ Adjusted Quick Ratio as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Effective Date was at least 1.25 to 1.00.

     6 AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
     Each Borrower agrees to and that:
     6.1 Government Compliance. Maintain its and all its Subsidiaries’ legal existence and good standing in their respective jurisdictions of formation and maintain qualification in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. Borrower shall comply, and have each Subsidiary comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
     6.2 Financial Statements, Reports, Certificates.
  (a)   Borrowers shall provide Bank with the following:

  (v)   prior to the end of each fiscal year of Borrower, (A) annual operating budgets (including income statements, balance sheets and cash flow statements, by month) for the upcoming fiscal year of Borrower, and (B) annual financial projections for the following fiscal year (on a quarterly basis) as approved by

-9-


 

      Borrower’s board of directors, together with any related business forecasts used in the preparation of such annual financial projections;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during a Streamline Period, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall not be required to provide Bank with the reports and schedules required pursuant to clause (a)(i) above.
          (b) At all times that any Borrower is subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, within five (5) days after filing, all reports on Form 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or a link thereto on such Borrower’s or another website on the Internet.
          (c) Prompt written notice of (i) any material change in the composition of the intellectual property, (ii) the registration of any copyright, including any subsequent ownership right of any Borrower in or to any copyright, patent or trademark not shown in the IP Security Agreement, or (iii) any Borrower’s knowledge of an event that materially adversely affects the value of the intellectual property.
     6.3 Accounts Receivable.
          (a) Schedules and Documents Relating to Accounts. Borrower shall deliver to Bank transaction reports and schedules of collections, as provided in Section 6.2, on Bank’s standard forms; provided, however, that Borrower’s failure to execute and deliver the same shall not affect or limit Bank’s Lien and other rights in all of Borrower’s Accounts, nor shall Bank’s failure to advance or lend against a specific Account affect or limit Bank’s Lien and other rights therein. If requested by Bank, Borrower shall furnish Bank with copies (or, at Bank’s request, originals) of all contracts, orders, invoices, and other similar documents, and all shipping instructions, delivery receipts, bills of lading, and other evidence of delivery, for any goods the sale or disposition of which gave rise to such Accounts. In addition, Borrower shall deliver to Bank, on its request, the originals of all instruments, chattel paper, security agreements, guarantees and other documents and property evidencing or securing any Accounts, in the same form as received, with all necessary endorsements, and copies of all credit memos.
          (b) Disputes. Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of all disputes or claims in excess of $50,000 relating to Accounts. Borrower may forgive (completely or partially), compromise, or settle any Account for less than payment in full, or agree to do any of the foregoing so long as (i) Borrower does so in good faith, in a commercially reasonable manner, in the ordinary course of business, in arm’s-length transactions, and reports the same to Bank in the regular reports provided to Bank; and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (iii) after taking into account all such discounts, settlements and forgiveness, the sum of the total outstanding Credit Extensions plus the Letter of Credit Reserve will not exceed the lesser of the Maximum Dollar Amount or the Borrowing Base.
          (c) Collection of Accounts. During the term of this Agreement and so long as any Obligation remains outstanding, each Borrower shall be a party to a three party agreement (the “Lockbox Agreement”) with Bank and a lockbox provider (the “Lockbox Provider”). The Lockbox Agreement and Lockbox Provider shall be acceptable to Bank. Borrower shall use the lockbox address as the payment address on all invoices issued by Borrower and shall direct all its Account Debtors to remit their payments to the lockbox address. The Lockbox Agreement shall provide that the Lockbox Provider shall remit all collections received in the lockbox to Bank. Upon Bank’s receipt of such collections, in immediately available funds, and after the Bank’s ordinary course processing thereof, Bank shall apply the same as follows:
  (i)   If a Streamline Period is in effect, Bank shall deposit such proceeds into the operating account of Borrower at Bank that is designated by Borrower; and

-10-


 

  (ii)   If a Streamline Period is not in effect, Bank shall apply such proceeds to the outstanding Advances, and if all outstanding Advances have been paid in full, Bank shall deposit the remainder into the operating account of Borrower at Bank that is designated by Borrower; and
 
  (iii)   If a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without limiting Bank’s other rights and remedies, Bank shall have the right to apply such proceeds to the outstanding Obligations in such order as it shall determine in its discretion.
It is understood and agreed by Borrower that this Section does not impose any affirmative duty on Bank to do any act other than to turn over such amounts. Without limitation on the foregoing, whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall hold all payments on, and proceeds of, Accounts that Borrower receives, in trust for Bank, and Borrower shall immediately deliver all such payments and proceeds to Bank in their original form, duly endorsed, to be applied to the Obligations pursuant to the terms of Section 9.4 hereof.
          (d) Returns. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to Borrower, Borrower shall promptly (i) determine the reason for such return, (ii) issue a credit memorandum to the Account Debtor in the appropriate amount, and (iii) provide a copy of such credit memorandum to Bank, upon request from Bank. In the event any attempted return occurs after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower shall hold the returned Inventory in trust for Bank, and immediately notify Bank of the return of the Inventory.
          (e) Verification. Bank may, from time to time, verify directly with the respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to the Accounts, either in the name of Borrower or Bank or such other name as Bank may choose.
          (f) No Liability. Bank shall not be responsible or liable for any shortage or discrepancy in, damage to, or loss or destruction of, any goods, the sale or other disposition of which gives rise to an Account, or for any error, act, omission, or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, failure to settle, collection or failure to collect any Account, or for settling any Account in good faith for less than the full amount thereof, nor shall Bank be deemed to be responsible for any of Borrower’s obligations under any contract or agreement giving rise to an Account. Nothing herein shall, however, relieve Bank from liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
     6.4 Remittance of Proceeds. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.3(c), deliver, in kind, all proceeds arising from the disposition of any Collateral to Bank in the original form in which received by Borrower not later than the following Business Day after receipt by Borrower, to be applied to the Obligations pursuant to the terms of Section 9.4 hereof; provided that, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall not be obligated to remit to Bank the proceeds of the sale of worn out or obsolete Equipment disposed of by Borrower in good faith in an arm’s length transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 or less (for all such transactions for all Borrowers in any fiscal year). Borrower agrees that it will not commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of Borrower’s other funds or property, but will hold such proceeds separate and apart from such other funds and property and in an express trust for Bank. Nothing in this Section limits the restrictions on disposition of Collateral set forth elsewhere in this Agreement.
     6.5 Taxes; Pensions. Timely file all required tax returns and reports and timely pay all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower except for deferred payment of any taxes contested pursuant to the terms of Section 5.9 hereof, and pay all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms.
     6.6 Access to Collateral; Books and Records. At reasonable times, on one (1) Business Day’s notice (provided no notice is required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), Bank, or its agents, shall have the right to inspect the Collateral and the right to audit and copy Borrower’s Books. The foregoing inspections and audits shall be at Borrower’s expense, and the charge therefor shall be $750 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent Bank’s then-current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses; provided that Borrower shall only be required to pay for one inspection per any 12 month period plus any inspection that is requested by Bank, or undertaken, while an Event of Default exists. In the event Borrower and Bank schedule an audit more than ten (10) days in advance, and Borrower cancels or seeks to

-11-


 

reschedules the audit with less than ten (10) days written notice to Bank, then (without limiting any of Bank’s rights or remedies), Borrowers shall pay Bank a fee of $1,000 plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank to compensate Bank for the anticipated costs and expenses of the cancellation or rescheduling.
     6.7 Insurance. Keep its business and the Collateral insured for risks and in amounts standard for companies in Borrower’s industry and location and as Bank may reasonably request. Insurance policies shall be in a form, with companies, and in amounts that are satisfactory to Bank. All property policies shall have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing Bank as an additional lender loss payee and waive subrogation against Bank, and all liability policies shall show, or have endorsements showing, Bank as an additional insured. All policies (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements) shall provide that the insurer must give Bank at least twenty (20) days notice before canceling, amending, or declining to renew its policy. At Bank’s request, Borrower shall deliver certified copies of policies and evidence of all premium payments. Proceeds payable under any policy shall, at Bank’s option, be payable to Bank on account of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option of applying the proceeds of any casualty policy up to $50,000, in the aggregate, toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property; provided that any such replaced or repaired property (i) shall be of equal or like value as the replaced or repaired Collateral and (ii) shall be deemed Collateral in which Bank has been granted a first priority security interest, and (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds payable under such casualty policy shall, at the option of Bank, be payable to Bank on account of the Obligations. If Borrower fails to obtain insurance as required under this Section 6.7 or to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons and Bank, Bank may make all or part of such payment or obtain such insurance policies required in this Section 6.7, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent.
     6.8 Operating Accounts.
          (a) Maintain all of its and its Subsidiaries’ depository accounts, operating accounts and other accounts at which Borrower or its Subsidiaries maintain funds, and all of their securities accounts, with Bank and Bank’s Affiliates; provided that Geologic shall have until the expiration of 30 days following the Effective Date to transfer to Bank or Bank’s Affiliates any such accounts not held with Bank or Bank’s Affiliates as of the Effective Date.
          (b) Without limitation on Section 6.8(a) above, (i) provide Bank five (5) days prior written notice before establishing any Collateral Account at or with any bank or financial institution other than Bank, and (ii) for each Collateral Account that Borrower at any time maintains (other than with Bank), Borrower shall cause the applicable bank or financial institution at or with which such Collateral Account is maintained to execute and deliver a Control Agreement or other appropriate instrument with respect to such Collateral Account to perfect Bank’s Lien in such Collateral Account in accordance with the terms hereunder. The provisions of “ii” of the previous sentence shall not apply to deposit accounts exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of Borrower’s employees and identified to Bank by Borrower as such.
     6.9 Financial Covenants.
          Borrowers shall maintain at all times:
          (a) Tangible Net Worth. A Tangible Net Worth of greater than the following (“Minimum Tangible Net Worth”): (i) from March 31, 2008 through and including August 31, 2008, an amount equal to the Tangible Net Worth of Borrowers as of the date of the closing of the Geologic Solutions Acquisition less $1,000,000, and (ii) from September 1, 2008 and thereafter, the Minimum Tangible Net Worth as calculated for “i” above plus $1,500,000 plus 50% of the Borrowers’ Net Income (but not net loss) in each fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2008. Increases in the Minimum Tangible Net Worth based on Net Income shall be effective on the last day of the fiscal quarter in which said Net Income is realized, and shall continue effective thereafter. In no event shall the Minimum Tangible Net Worth be decreased.
          (b) Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. A Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2008, and for each twelve month period ending on the last day of each calendar quarter thereafter, of not less than 1.25 to 1.00.

-12-


 

          (c) Adjusted EBITDA. An Adjusted EBITDA of not less than ($1,000,000) for the two month period ending February 29, 2008, and for the three month period ending March 31, 2008. (For purposes of the foregoing, it is noted that parentheses enclosing an amount denotes a negative amount.)
     6.10 Intellectual Property Rights. Borrower shall: (a) protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of its intellectual property; (b) promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements of its intellectual property; and (c) not allow any intellectual property material to Borrower’s business to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without Bank’s written consent. If Borrower (i) obtains any patent, registered trademark or servicemark, registered copyright, registered mask work, or any pending application for any of the foregoing, whether as owner, licensee or otherwise, or (ii) applies for any patent or the registration of any trademark or servicemark, then Borrower shall immediately provide written notice thereof to Bank and shall execute such intellectual property security agreements and other documents and take such other actions as Bank shall request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in such property, and Borrower shall not include any Accounts that arise from the licensing or other disposition of any asset that is wholly or partially evidenced by, or otherwise includes, such registered copyright or mask work until Bank is so perfected. If Borrower decides to register any copyrights or mask works in the United States Copyright Office, Borrower shall: (x) provide Bank with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intent to register such copyrights or mask works together with a copy of the application it intends to file with the United States Copyright Office (excluding exhibits thereto); (y) execute an intellectual property security agreement and such other documents and take such other actions as Bank may request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in the copyrights or mask works intended to be registered with the United States Copyright Office; and (z) record such intellectual property security agreement with the United States Copyright Office contemporaneously with filing the copyright or mask work application(s) with the United States Copyright Office. Borrower shall promptly provide to Bank copies of all applications that it files for patents or for the registration of trademarks, servicemarks, copyrights or mask works, together with evidence of the recording of the intellectual property security agreement necessary for Bank to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in such property.
     6.11 Litigation Cooperation. From the date hereof and continuing through the termination of this Agreement, make available to Bank, without expense to Bank, Borrower and its officers, employees and agents and Borrower’s books and records, to the extent that Bank may deem them reasonably necessary to prosecute or defend any third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against Bank with respect to any Collateral or relating to Borrower.
     6.12 Further Assurances. Borrower shall execute any further instruments and take further action as Bank reasonably requests to perfect or continue Bank’s Lien in the Collateral or to effect the purposes of this Agreement.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Xata and Geologic may consummate the Geologic Solutions Acquisition provided that doing so does not result in an Event of Default under any of the other sections of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the assets of Geologic shall be subject to no Liens not shown on the Perfection Certificate.

     7.8 Transactions with Affiliates. Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except for transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person.

     8 EVENTS OF DEFAULT
     Any one of the following shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) under this Agreement:
     8.1 Payment Default. Any Borrower fails to (a) make any payment of principal or interest on any Credit Extension on its due date, or (b) pay any other Obligations within three (3) Business Days after such Obligations are due and payable. During the cure period, the failure to cure the payment default is not an Event of Default (but no Credit Extension will be made during the cure period);
     8.2 Covenant Default.
          (a) Any Borrower fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.6, 6.8, or 6.9, or violates any covenant in Section 7; or
          (b) Any Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Loan Documents, and as to any default (other than those specified in this Section 8) under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be cured, has failed to cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof; provided, however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to cure the default shall not be deemed an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions shall be made during such cure period). Grace periods provided under this section shall not apply, among other things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in subsection (a) above;
     8.3 Material Adverse Change. A Material Adverse Change occurs;
     8.4 Attachment. (a) Any material portion of any Borrower’s assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver; (b) the service of process seeking to attach, by trustee or similar process, any funds of any Borrower or of any entity under control of any Borrower (including a Subsidiary) on deposit with Bank or any Bank Affiliate; (c) any Borrower is enjoined, restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting any part of its business; or (d) a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against any of any Borrower’s assets by any government agency, and the same under clauses (a) through (d) hereof are not, within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof, discharged or stayed (whether through the posting of a bond or otherwise); provided, however, no Credit Extensions shall be made during any ten (10) day cure period;
     8.5 Insolvency. (a) Any Borrower is unable to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they become due or otherwise becomes insolvent; (b) any Borrower begins an Insolvency Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against any Borrower and not dismissed or stayed within thirty (30) days (but no Credit Extensions shall be made while of any of the conditions described in clause (a) exist and/or until any Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);
     8.6 Other Agreements. There is a default in any agreement to which any Borrower or any Guarantor is a party with a third party or parties resulting in a right by such third party or parties, whether or not exercised, to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness in an amount in excess of $50,000 or that could result in a Material Adverse Change with respect to any Borrower or any Guarantor; provided, however, that the Event of Default under this Section 8.6 caused by the occurrence of a default under such other agreement shall be cured or waived for purposes of this Agreement upon Bank receiving written notice from the party asserting such default of such cure or waiver of the default under such other agreement, if at the time of such cure or waiver under such other agreement (a) Bank has not declared an Event of Default under this Agreement and/or exercised any rights with respect thereto; (b) any such cure or waiver does not result in an Event of Default under any other provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document; and (c) in connection with any such cure or waiver under such other agreement, the terms of any agreement with such third party are not modified or amended in any manner which could in the good faith judgment of Bank be materially less advantageous to any Borrower or any Guarantor;

     8.7 Judgments. One or more judgments, orders, or decrees for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of $50,000 or more (not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which liability has been accepted by such insurance carrier) shall be rendered against any Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied, unvacated, or unstayed for a period of ten (10) days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the satisfaction, vacation, or stay of such judgment, order, or decree);
     8.8 Misrepresentations. Any Borrower or any Person acting for any Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Bank or to induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;
     8.9 Subordinated Debt. A default or breach occurs under any agreement between any Borrower and any creditor of such Borrower that signed a subordination, intercreditor, or other similar agreement with Bank (other than a default or breach under an agreement with a Selling Geologic Stockholder resulting from such Borrower’s failure to pay to the Selling Geologic Stockholder any portion of the deferred purchase price for the stock of Geologic in the Geologic Solutions Acquisition, provided that the rights of any party to such agreement against any Borrower or its property as a result of such default or breach are subordinated pursuant to the Seller Subordination Agreements), or any creditor that has signed such an agreement (including, without limitation, a Selling Geologic Stockholder) with Bank breaches any terms of such agreement; or

     9.1 Rights and Remedies. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
          (a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
          (b) stop advancing money or extending credit for any Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between any Borrower and Bank;
          (c) demand that Borrowers (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrowers shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit;
          (d) terminate any foreign exchange contracts entered into by Borrowers with Bank;
          (e) demand payment of, and collect any Accounts and General Intangibles comprising Collateral, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts, on terms, and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any Account Debtor or other Person owing any Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds, verify the amount of the same and collect the same;
          (f) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrowers shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Each Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;

-16-


 

          (g) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of any Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower;
          (h) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, each Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, each Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
          (i) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
          (j) demand and receive possession of each Borrower’s Books; and
          (k) exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
     9.2 Power of Attorney. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Each Borrower hereby appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
     9.3 Protective Payments. If any Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.7 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide such Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
     9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds. No Borrower shall have any right to specify the order or the accounts to which Bank shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by any Borrower to Bank or otherwise received by Bank under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its possession, whether from any Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrowers by credit to the Designated Deposit Account or to other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrowers shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency. If Bank, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.
     9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or

-17-


 

responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrowers bear all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
     9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
     9.7 Demand Waiver. Each Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which any Borrower is liable.

     11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE.
     California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each Borrower and Bank submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from

-18-


 

bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Each Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and each Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Each Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH BORROWER AND BANK WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.
     12 GENERAL PROVISIONS
     12.1 Termination Prior to Revolving Line Maturity Date. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date by Borrowers, effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank. Notwithstanding any such termination, Bank’s lien and security interest in the Collateral and all of Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall continue until Borrowers fully satisfies all Obligations. If such termination is at Borrowers’ election or at Bank’s election due to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or if any of the Obligations become due and payable as the result of an Event of Default (including, without limitation, becoming due and payable as the result of an Insolvency Proceeding), Borrowers shall pay to Bank, in addition to the payment of any other expenses or fees then-owing, a termination fee in an amount equal to 1% of the Maximum Dollar Amount if termination occurs on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, and 0.5% of the Maximum Dollar Amount if termination occurs after the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date; provided that no termination fee shall

-19-


 

be charged if the credit facility hereunder is replaced with a new facility from another division of Silicon Valley Bank
     12.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. No Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s discretion). Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to any Borrower, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
     12.3 Indemnification. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Bank and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Bank harmless against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses incurred, or paid by Bank from, following, or arising from transactions between Bank and any Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
     12.4 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.
     12.5 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
     12.6 Amendments in Writing; Integration. All amendments to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both Bank and the Borrower to be bound by such amendment. This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
     12.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
     12.8 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied. The obligations of each Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to all claims and causes of action with respect to which indemnity is given to Bank shall have run.
     12.9 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; and (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under this Agreement. Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank; or (ii) is disclosed to Bank by a third party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.
     12.10 Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses. In any action or proceeding between any Borrower and Bank arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
     12.11 Joint and Several Liability; Borrower to Borrower Indemnity. Borrowers’ liability for the Obligations (including for the performance of duties) shall be joint and several, and the compromise of any claim with, or the release of, any Borrower shall not constitute a compromise with, or a release of, any other Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Geologic assumes and agrees to be jointly and severally liable for,

-20-


 

with Xata, the unpaid “Advances” under the Prior Agreement. Xata hereby agrees to indemnify Geologic and hold Geologic harmless, from and against any and all claims, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, costs and expenses, of every nature and description, which it may sustain or incur, based upon, arising out of, or in any way relating to (i) Geologic’s assumption of the Obligations of Xata as set forth herein, (ii) Geologic’s execution and delivery of a guaranty with respect to Xata as set forth herein, (iii) Geologic’s grant of a security interest in its assets to Bank, and (iv) any other obligation incurred or transfer made by Geologic under or in connection with this Agreement, or any other document, instrument, or agreement relating hereto.
     12.12 Borrowing Agent; Co-Borrowing. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to receive all Communications, to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and to execute and deliver all Borrowing Base Certificates, Transaction Reports, funding directions, instruments, documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Bank to pay over or credit all Credit Extensions hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent, provided that Bank may from time to time in its sole discretion require that any or all such actions be effected by each Borrower directly instead of through the Borrowing Agent. If this credit facility is handled as a co-borrowing facility, with or without a borrowing agent, it is done so solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their request. Bank shall incur no liability to any Borrower as a result thereof. To induce Bank to do so and in consideration thereof (but without obligation of Bank to handle the credit facility as a co-borrowing facility), and in addition to and not in limitation of any other indemnity contained in the Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby indemnifies Bank and holds Bank harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Bank by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of Borrowers as a co-borrowing facility, reliance by Bank on any request or instruction from Borrowing Agent, or any other action taken by Bank in reliance on the credit facility being a co-borrowing facility or Borrowing Agent representing the Borrowers. If this credit facility is at any time administered in a manner such that Borrowers submit combined Borrowing Base Certificates or Transaction Reports, or Credit Extensions are made to one of the Borrowers based on the aggregate Collateral of all Borrowers, Bank may in its sole discretion, upon prior notice to the Borrowers, change such manner of administration to require that each Borrower report on and receive Credit Extensions with respect to its own Collateral, and in such case the Borrowers shall take such actions as Bank shall reasonably request in order to effectuate such change.
