EXHIBIT 10.1
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"),
and COMMVAULT SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation ("BORROWER"), provides the
terms on which Bank shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Bank. 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. Borrower 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 TERM LOAN.
(a) Availability. Bank shall make one (1) term loan available on or
after the Effective Date but no later than the earlier of (i) five (5) Business
Days following Borrower closing on an initial public offering or (ii) July 31,
2006 to Borrower in an amount up to the Term Loan Amount, subject to the
satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b) Repayment. Commencing on June 1, 2006 and on the first (1st) day
of each quarter thereafter, Borrower shall repay the Term Loan in (i) equal
installments of principal, which would fully amortize the Term Loan over a
twenty-four (24) month period, plus (ii) accrued interest ((i) and (ii)
collectively, the "TERM LOAN PAYMENT"). Borrower's final Term Loan Payment, due
on the Term Loan Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and
accrued and unpaid interest under the Term Loan.
2.2 GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE CREDIT EXTENSION. Borrower shall pay
interest accrued on the Credit Extension at the rates and in the manner set
forth in Section 2.3(b).
2.3 PAYMENT OF INTEREST ON THE CREDIT EXTENSION.
(a) Computation of Interest. Interest on the Credit Extension and all
fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the
actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues.
In computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such
Credit Extension shall be included and the date
of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is
repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in
computing interest on such Credit Extension.
(b) The Term Loan. The Term Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made, continued or
converted until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus
the LIBOR Rate Margin.
(c) Default Interest. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(b),
after an Event of Default or after acceleration of the Obligations, Obligations
shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is five percent (5.00%) above the
rate effective immediately before the Event of Default (the "DEFAULT RATE").
Payment or acceptance of the increased interest provided in this Section 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.
(d) Debit of Accounts. Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit
accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest
payments when due, or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank, when due. Bank shall
promptly notify Borrower after it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits shall
not constitute a set-off.
2.4 FEES. Borrower shall pay to Bank all Bank Expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, plus expenses for documentation and
negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date,
immediately upon receipt of an invoice therefore.
3. CONDITIONS OF LOANS
3.1 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CREDIT EXTENSION. Bank's obligation to make the
Credit Extension is subject to the condition precedent that Bank shall have
received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, such documents, and
completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or
appropriate, including, without limitation:
(a) Borrower shall have delivered duly executed original signatures to
the Loan Documents to which it is a party;
(b) Borrower shall have delivered duly executed original signatures to
the Control Agreement;
(c) Borrower shall have delivered its Operating Documents and a good
standing certificate of Borrower certified by the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware and the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey as of a
date no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Date;
(d) Borrower shall have delivered duly executed original signatures to
the completed Borrowing Resolutions for Borrower;
(e) Bank shall have received certified copies, dated as of a recent
date, of financing statement searches, as Bank shall request, accompanied by
written evidence (including
2
any UCC termination statements) that the Liens indicated in any such financing
statements either constitute Permitted Liens or have been or, in connection with
the Credit Extension, will be terminated or released;
(f) Borrower shall have delivered the Perfection Certificate executed
by Borrower;
(g) Borrower shall have delivered the insurance policies and/or
endorsements required pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof evidence satisfactory to
Bank that the insurance policies required by Section 6.4 hereof are in full
force and effect, together with appropriate evidence showing loss payable and/or
additional insured clauses or endorsements in favor of Bank; and
(h) Borrower shall have paid the fees and Bank Expenses specified in
Section 2.4 hereof.
3.2 PROCEDURE FOR THE BORROWING OF CREDIT EXTENSIONS.
Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the
making of the Term Loan set forth in this Agreement, the Term Loan shall be made
upon Borrower's irrevocable written notice delivered to Bank in the form of a
Notice of Borrowing, executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower or his or her
designee. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank
believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for
any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance. Such Notice of Borrowing must be
received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time, at least three (3) Business
Days prior to the Funding Date specifying the requested Funding Date.
The proceeds of the Term Loan will then be made available to Borrower on
the Funding Date by Bank by transfer to the Designated Deposit Account and,
subsequently, by wire transfer to such other account as Borrower may instruct in
the Notice of Borrowing. No Credit Extensions shall be deemed made to Borrower,
and no interest shall accrue on the Term Loan, until the related funds have been
deposited in the Designated Deposit Account.
3.3 SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING THE TERM LOAN.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
following provisions shall govern with respect to the Term Loan as to the
matters covered:
(a) Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable
on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which
determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive
and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Term
Loan and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone
confirmed in writing) to Borrower.
(b) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that
Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive
and binding upon all parties hereto) on any Interest Rate Determination Date
with respect to the Term Loan, that by reason of circumstances affecting the
London interbank market adequate and fair means do not
3
exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to the Term Loan on the
basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give
notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such
determination, whereupon the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof at the Alternate Rate until such time as Bank
determines that such circumstances cease to exist.
(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods.
Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written request by Bank (which request
shall set forth the manner and method of computing such compensation), for all
reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities, if any (including any interest paid
by Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Term Loan and
any loss, expense or liability incurred by Bank in connection with the
liquidation or re-employment of such funds), that Bank may incur: (i) if for any
reason (other than a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund a
Term Loan due to impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.4(d) and
3.4(e)) a borrowing does not occur on a date specified in a Notice of Borrowing,
or (ii) if any principal payment of any of its Term Loan occurs on a date prior
to the last day of an Interest Period.
(d) Assumptions Concerning Funding of the Term Loan. Calculation of
all amounts payable to Bank under this Section and under Section 3.4 shall be
made as though Bank had actually funded the Term Loan through the purchase of a
Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at LIBOR in an amount equal to the amount of
such Term Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period;
provided, however, that Bank may fund the Term Loan in any manner it sees fit
and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of
calculating amounts payable under this Section and under Section 3.4.
3.4 ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS/PROVISIONS REGARDING THE TERM LOAN.
(a) If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or
acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of the Term
Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period, Borrower shall immediately
notify Borrower's account officer at Bank and, on demand by Bank, pay Bank the
amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which would have been
payable on the amount so received had it not been received until the last day of
such Interest Period exceeds (ii) the interest which would have been recoverable
by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the certificate of
deposit markets, the offshore currency markets, or United States Treasury
investment products, as the case may be, for a period starting on the date on
which it was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period at
the interest rate determined by Bank in its reasonable discretion. Bank's
determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Borrower shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time
such amounts as Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate it for any
costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are attributable to its making or
maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any Credit
Extensions relating thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts
receivable being herein called "ADDITIONAL COSTS"), in each case resulting from
any Regulatory Change which:
4
(i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank
under this Agreement in respect of any Credit Extensions (other than changes
which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall net income of Bank by
the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office);
(ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any
deposits with, or other liabilities of Bank (including any Credit Extensions or
any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR); or
(iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or
any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).
Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the Effective Date
which will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.4 as promptly
as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such
compensation. Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the
basis and amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section
3.4. Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 3.4 of
the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations
to make Credit Extensions, of making or maintaining Credit Extensions, or on
amounts receivable by it in respect of Credit Extensions, and of the additional
amounts required to compensate Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.
(c) If Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any
applicable law, rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any
change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by
any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its
applicable lending office) with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central
bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on capital of Bank or any Person controlling Bank (a "PARENT") as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or
its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance
(taking into consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an
amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen
(15) days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction. A statement of
Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.4(c) and setting forth the
additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.
(d) If, at any time, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion,
determines that (i) the amount of the Term Loan for periods equal to the
corresponding Interest Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore
currency interbank markets, or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost
to Bank of lending the Term Loan, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof
to Borrower. Upon the giving of such notice, the Term Loan shall bear interest
at the Alternate Rate until Bank determines that such circumstances have ceased
to exist.
5
(e) If it shall become unlawful for Bank to maintain the Term Loan, or
to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall prepay
the Credit Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon and all other
amounts payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation, any amount
payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.4(a)).
4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
4.1 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. 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.
Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants 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 Borrower shall
acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a
writing signed by 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.
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 Borrower's sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral
and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.
4.2 AUTHORIZATION TO FILE FINANCING STATEMENTS. Borrower hereby authorizes
Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, 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
Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank
under the Code.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
5.1 DUE ORGANIZATION AND AUTHORIZATION. Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries are duly existing and in good standing as Registered Organizations
only in the State of Delaware and are qualified and licensed to do business and
are in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of their business
or their ownership of property requires that they be qualified except where the
failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on Borrower's business. In connection with this Agreement, Borrower has
delivered to Bank a completed certificate substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit E signed by Borrower, entitled "Perfection Certificate."
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
6
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
state 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. If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but
later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of such occurrence and
provide Bank with Borrower's organizational identification number.
The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been
duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's organizational documents,
nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which
Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is
a party or by which it is bound in which the default could have a material
adverse effect on Borrower's business.
5.2 COLLATERAL. Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to
transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇
hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower
has no deposit accounts other than (a) deposit accounts with Bank, (b) deposit
accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in
connection herewith, and (c) deposit accounts with respect to which Borrower has
given Bank notice and to the extent required under this Agreement, taken such
actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein.
The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as
a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate. None of
the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as
provided in the Perfection Certificate or as Borrower has given Bank notice
pursuant to Section 7.2. In the event that Borrower, after the date hereof,
intends to store or otherwise deliver any portion of the Collateral to a bailee,
then Borrower will first receive the written consent of Bank and such bailee
must execute and deliver a bailee agreement in form and substance satisfactory
to Bank in its sole discretion.
Borrower is the sole owner of its intellectual property, except for
non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of
business. Each patent is valid and enforceable, and no part of the intellectual
property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and to
the best of Borrower's knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the
intellectual property violates the rights of any third party except to the
extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on Borrower's business. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate,
Borrower is not a party to, or bound by, any material license or other agreement
with respect to which Borrower is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise
restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower's interest in
such license or agreement or any other property. Borrower shall provide written
notice to Bank within ten (10) days of entering or becoming bound by any such
license or agreement which is reasonably likely to have a material impact on
Borrower's business or financial condition (other than over-the-counter software
that is commercially available to the public). 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 all such licenses or contract rights to be deemed
"Collateral" and for Bank to have
7
a security interest in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by
law or by the terms of any such license or agreement (such consent or
authorization may include a licensor's agreement to a contingent assignment of
the license to Bank if Bank determines that is necessary in its good faith
judgment), whether now existing or entered into in the future.
5.3 LITIGATION. There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of the Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or against
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving more than Two Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($250,000).
5.4 NO MATERIAL DEVIATION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. All consolidated
financial statements for Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to Bank
fairly present in all material respects Borrower's consolidated financial
condition and Borrower's consolidated results of operations as of the dates
thereof. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower's
consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial
statements submitted to Bank.
5.5 SOLVENCY. Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its
debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
5.6 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. Borrower is not an "investment company" or a
company "controlled" by an "investment company" under the Investment Company
Act. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending
credit for margin stock (under Regulations T and U of the Federal Reserve Board
of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal
Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or
rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on its business. 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 its business as
currently conducted.
5.7 SUBSIDIARIES; INVESTMENTS. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership
interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments.
5.8 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS; PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS. 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, and (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
8
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.
5.9 USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit
Extensions solely to finance a dividend to Borrower's preferred shareholders and
to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family,
household or agricultural purposes.
5.10 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 representations, warranties, or other statements were 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 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).
6. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
Borrower shall do all of the following:
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 have a material adverse effect on Borrower's
business or operations. Borrower shall comply, and have each Subsidiary comply,
with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance
with which could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business.
6.2 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, REPORTS, CERTIFICATES.
(a) DELIVER TO BANK: (i) so long as Borrower is not subject to the
reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "ACT"), as soon as available, but no later than thirty (30) days after the
last day of each month, a company prepared consolidated balance sheet and income
statement covering Borrower's and each of its Subsidiary's operations during the
period certified by a Responsible Officer and in a form acceptable to Bank; (ii)

requirements under the Act, as amended, within one hundred twenty (120) days of
Borrower's fiscal year end, all reports on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission or a link thereto on Borrower's or another website on
the Internet; (vi) a prompt report of any legal actions pending or threatened
against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that could result in damages or
costs to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000)
or more; (vii) prompt notice of an event that materially and adversely affects
the value of the intellectual property; (viii) as soon as available, but no

financial information reasonably requested by Bank.
(b) Within (i) thirty (30) days after the last day of each month so
long as Borrower is not subject to the reporting requirements under the Act or

Act, Borrower shall deliver to Bank within forty-five (45) days after the last
day of each quarter, a duly completed Compliance Certificate signed by a
Responsible Officer setting forth calculations showing compliance with the
financial covenant set forth in this Agreement and as soon as available, but in
no event more than seven (7) days after each month end, a cash balance report in
form and detail satisfactory to Bank in all respects
(c) Allow Bank to audit Borrower's Collateral at Borrower's expense.
6.3 TAXES; PENSIONS. Make, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to make,
timely payment of all foreign, federal, state, and local taxes or assessments
(other than taxes and assessments which Borrower is contesting pursuant to the
terms of Section 5.8 hereof) and shall deliver to Bank, on demand, appropriate
certificates attesting to such payments, and pay all amounts necessary to fund
all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in
accordance with their terms.
6.4 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 the sole 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 insurance policy up to Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), 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)
10
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 6.4 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 6.4, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent.
6.5 OPERATING ACCOUNTS.
(a) Maintain its primary operating accounts with Bank.
(b) Provide Bank not less than five (5) days prior written notice
before establishing any Collateral Account at or with any bank or financial
institution other than Bank or its Affiliates. In addition, for each Collateral
Account that Borrower at any time maintains, Borrower shall cause the applicable
bank or financial institution (other than Bank) at or with which any 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 hereof; provided,
however that no Control Agreement is required for any deposit account with an
amount on deposit the does not at any time exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($250,000), so long as the aggregate amounts in such deposit accounts do
not exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). The provisions of the previous
sentence which require a Control Agreement, 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.
6.6 FINANCIAL COVENANTS. Borrower shall maintain, at all times, to be
tested as of the last day of each month, unless otherwise noted, on a
consolidated basis with respect to Borrower and its Subsidiaries a ratio of
Quick Assets to Current Liabilities minus Deferred Revenue of at least 1.5 to
1.0 (the "ADJUSTED QUICK RATIO").
6.7 PROTECTION AND REGISTRATION OF 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

property security agreement necessary for Bank to maintain the perfection and
priority of its security interest in such copyrights or mask works. Borrower

or defend any third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against Bank with
respect to any Collateral or relating to Borrower.

take further action as Bank reasonably requests to perfect or continue Bank's

intellectual property, except as is otherwise permitted in Section 7.1 hereof
and the definition of "Permitted Lien" herein.

except pursuant to the terms of Section 6.5(b) hereof.

securities or otherwise in exchange thereof, (ii) Borrower may pay dividends
solely in common stock, and (iii) Borrower may repurchase the stock of former

7.8 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. Directly or indirectly enter into or
permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except

the terms of the subordination, intercreditor, or other similar agreement to

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. 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) Borrower fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections
6.2, 6.5, 6.5, 6.6 or violates any covenant in Section 7; or

term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement,
any Loan Document, and as to any default (other than those specified in Section
8.8 below) 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;
14
8.4 ATTACHMENT. (a) Any material portion of Borrower's assets is attached,

order from conducting a material part of its business; (d) a judgment or other
claim in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) becomes a Lien on any of
Borrower's assets; or (e) a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against
any of Borrower's assets by any government agency and not paid within ten (10)
days after Borrower receives notice. These are not Events of Default if stayed

shall be made during the cure period);
8.5 INSOLVENCY. (a) Borrower is unable to pay its debts (including trade
debts) as they become due or otherwise becomes insolvent; (b) Borrower begins an
Insolvency Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against 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 Borrower
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 Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000) or that could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business;
8.7 JUDGMENTS. A judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an
amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($250,000) (not covered by independent third-party insurance) shall be
rendered against Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied and unstayed for a period
of ten (10) days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions
will be made prior to the satisfaction or stay of such judgment);
8.8 MISREPRESENTATIONS. Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes
any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement,
in any other 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; or
8.9 SUBORDINATED DEBT. A default or breach occurs under any agreement
between Borrower and any creditor of Borrower that signed a subordination,
intercreditor, or other similar agreement with Bank, or any creditor that has
signed such an agreement with Bank breaches any terms of such agreement.
9. BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. While an Event of Default occurs and continues
Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
15
(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 Borrower's benefit
under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
(c) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors
for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any
Person owing Borrower money of Bank's security interest in such funds, and
verify the amount of such account;
(d) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or
reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the
Collateral. Borrower 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. Borrower grants Bank a
license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any
of Bank's rights or remedies;
(e) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower
it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the
account of Borrower;
(f) 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,
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, Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank's benefit;
(g) 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;
(h) demand and receive possession of Borrower's Books; and
(i) 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. 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 ▇▇▇▇ of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c)
settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with
16
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. 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 any security
interest 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 ACCOUNTS VERIFICATION; COLLECTION. Whether or not an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money
of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account.
After the occurrence of an Event of Default, any amounts received by Borrower
shall be held in trust by Borrower for Bank, and, if requested by Bank, Borrower
shall immediately deliver such receipts to Bank in the form received from the
Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.4 PROTECTIVE PAYMENTS. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called
for by Section 6.4 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 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.
9.5 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS AND PROCEEDS. Unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Bank shall apply any funds in its possession,
whether from Borrower account balances, payments, or proceeds realized as the
result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral,
first, to Bank Expenses, including without limitation, the reasonable costs,
expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Bank in the
exercise of its rights under this Agreement; second, to the interest due upon
any of the Obligations; and third, to the principal of the Obligations and any
applicable fees and other charges, in such order as Bank shall determine in its
sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally
entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency. If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its
possession, whether from 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 Borrower or other
Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower 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
17
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.
9.6 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 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. Borrower bears
all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
9.7 NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Bank's failure, at any time or times,
to require strict performance by 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.
9.8 DEMAND WAIVER. 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 Borrower is
liable.
10. NOTICES

11. CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE
Pennsylvania law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of
conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the State and Federal courts in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California; provided,
however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude
Bank from 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. Borrower expressly
submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit
commenced in any such court, and 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. 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 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 Borrower's actual receipt thereof or
three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.
BORROWER AND BANK EACH 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 BOTH 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 ▇▇▇▇▇ 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 ▇▇▇▇▇ 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 Sections 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
19
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 ▇▇▇▇▇ 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 Section 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 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of
the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not 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 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.
12.2 INDEMNIFICATION. 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 Borrower (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused
by Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
12.3 LIMITATION OF ACTIONS. Any claim or cause of action by Borrower
against Bank, its directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants,
attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Bank based upon,
arising from, or relating to this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
any other transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or relating hereto or
thereto, or any other matter, cause or thing whatsoever, occurred, done, omitted
or suffered to be done by Bank, its directors, officers, employees, agents,
accountants or attorneys, shall be barred unless asserted by Borrower by the
commencement of an action or proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction by
(a) the filing of a complaint within one year from the earlier of (i) the date
any of Borrower's officers or directors had knowledge of the first act, the
occurrence or omission upon which such claim or cause of action, or any part
thereof, is based, or (ii) the date this Agreement is terminated, and (b) the
service of a summons and complaint on an officer of Bank, or on any other Person
authorized to accept service on behalf of Bank, within thirty (30)
20
days thereafter. Borrower agrees that such one-year period is a reasonable and
sufficient time for Borrower to investigate and act upon any such claim or cause
of action. The one-year period provided herein shall not be waived, tolled, or
extended except by the written consent of Bank in its sole discretion. This
provision shall survive any termination of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan
Document.
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 Borrower. 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 obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to
indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to
such claim or cause of action 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 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.
21
12.11 RIGHT OF SETOFF. Borrower hereby grants to Bank a Lien and a right of
setoff as security for all Obligations to Bank, whether now existing or
hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and
property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of
Bank or any entity under the control of Bank (including a subsidiary of Bank) or
in transit to any of them. At any time after the occurrence and during the
