2.02. Use of Proceeds; the Loans and the Note.
(a) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used solely

Equipment.
(b) The Loans and the Note. The obligation of Borrower to repay the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of and interest on and to make the Final
Payments on the Loans, or to pay the Loan Value of the Loan Amount applicable
to each Loan, shall be evidenced by the Note. Lender may, and is hereby
authorized by Borrower to, endorse on a grid annexed to the Note appropriate
notations regarding the Loans evidenced by the Note; provided, however, that
the failure to make, or an error in making, any such notation shall not limit
or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Note.
2.03 Procedure for Making Loans.
(a) Loan Terms Schedule. Whenever Borrower desires that Lender make a
Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a list of the Equipment proposed to be
financed by such Loan and request that Lender prepare a Loan Terms Schedule for
such Loan. Lender's obligation to make the initial Loan shall be subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.01 and 8.02. Lender's
obligation to make each subsequent Loan shall be subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.02.
(b) Loan Interest Rate. Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each Loan from the first Payment Date for such Loan until
such Loan is paid in full, at a per annum rate of interest equal to the Loan
Rate determined by Lender as of the Funding Date for such Loan in accordance
with the definition of Loan Rate. The Loan Rate applicable to each Loan shall
not be subject to change in the absence of manifest error. All computations of
interest on Loans shall be based on a year of twelve (12) 30-day months. If
Borrower pays interest on any Loan which is determined to be in excess of the
then legal maximum rate, then that portion of each interest payment representing
an amount in excess of the then legal maximum rate shall be deemed a payment of
principal and applied against the principal of the applicable Loan.
(c) Loan Factor and Loan Value Calculation. Each Loan Terms Schedule
shall establish the Loan Factor and Loan Values with respect to such Loan. The
Loan Factor shall be calculated in a manner to fully amortize the Loan over the
Repayment Period applicable to such Loan in equal periodic installments. The
Loan Factor and Loan Values applicable to each Loan shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error.
(d) Disbursement. Subject to the receipt by Lender of a Loan Terms
Schedule duly executed by Borrower and the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Sections 8.01 and 8.02 with respect to the initial Loan and the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.02 with respect to each
subsequent Loan. Lender shall disburse such Loan by wire transfer to Borrower
unless otherwise directed in writing by Borrower.
(e) Termination of Commitment to Lend. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the Operative Documents, Lender's obligation to lend the
undisbursed portion of the Credit Amount to Borrower hereunder shall terminate
on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, and
(ii) the Commitment Termination Date.

previously due with respect to such Loan, an amount equal to the Final Payment
with respect to such Loan.

in lawful money of the United States at the address for payments and in the

(g) Default Rate. If either (i) any amounts required to be paid by
Borrower under this Agreement or the other Operative Documents (including
principal or interest payable on any Loan, any fees or other amounts) remain
unpaid after such amounts are due, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, Borrower shall pay interest on the aggregate, outstanding
principal balance hereunder from the date due or from the date of the Event of
Default, as applicable, until such past due amounts are paid in full or until
all Events of Defaults are cured, as applicable, at a per annum rate equal to
the Default Rate, such rate to change from time to time as the Prime Rate shall
change. All computations of such interest shall be based on a year of twelve
(12) 30-day months.

Borrower or, to its knowledge, any law or any regulation, order, writ,
injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality or any

(g) Disclosure. Neither any Operative Document nor any other
agreement, document or certificate furnished by Borrower to Lender, including,

local authorities, the security interests in the Collateral granted to Lender
pursuant to this Agreement (i) constitute and will continue to constitute first
priority security interests (except to the extent any other Permitted Lien
(other than Permitted Liens identified in clause (e) of the definition thereof)
existing on the date of this Agreement may create any priority to Lender's Lien
under this Agreement) and (ii) are and will continue to be superior and prior
to the rights of all other creditors of Borrower (except to the extent of such
Permitted Liens).
(i) Executive Officers. The principal place of business and chief

security interest in and to the following property (collectively, the

All right, title, interest, claims and demands of Borrower in and to
each and every item of equipment, fixtures, personal property,
certificates of deposit or treasury notes, which is financed with a Loan

dispositions thereof.
The security interest herein granted shall constitute a first priority security
interest upon the proper filing of one or more financing statements identifying
the Collateral with the proper state and/or local authorities.
(b) After-Acquired Property. All Equipment which is financed through
Loans shall ipso facto, and without any further conveyance, assignment or act
on the part of Borrower or Lender, become and be subject to the security
interest herein granted as fully and completely as though specifically
described herein. The definition of the term "Equipment" shall be deemed
amended on each Funding Date to incorporate all property financed with, or
which will constitute Collateral for, the Loan advanced on such Funding Date.
Any failure to formally amend such definition shall not affect the grant by

Article V. This Agreement and the other documents in connection herewith may be
supplemented and amended from time to time, as required by Lender, to reflect
the additional Collateral subject to the security interest granted pursuant to
this Article V.

Section 6.01(e), Lender shall release its security interest in such item of
Collateral. Lender shall execute such further documents and take such further
actions as may be necessary to effect the release and/or termination
contemplated by this Section 5.02, including duly executing and delivering
termination statements for filing in all relevant jurisdictions.

(i) Borrower shall, at its expense, make all necessary site
preparations and cause the Collateral to be operated in accordance with any
applicable manufacturer's manuals or instructions. So long as no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the right
to quietly possess and use the Collateral as provided herein without
interference by Lender.
(ii) Borrower shall, at its expense, maintain the Collateral in
good condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and comply in all material
respects with all laws, rules and regulations to which the use and operation of
the Collateral may be or become subject. Such obligation shall extend to repair
and replacement of any partial loss or damage to the Collateral, regardless of
the cause. All parts furnished in connection with such maintenance or repair
shall immediately become part of the Collateral. All such maintenance, repair
and replacement services shall be paid for and discharged by
10
11
Borrower with the result that no Lien will attach to the Collateral. All parts
or accessories attached to or made part of the Collateral shall be new,
fabricated or rebuilt and in any case shall be consistent with the applicable
specifications, if any, prescribed by the manufacturer of the affected
Collateral.
(d) Insurance. Unless such provisions are amended pursuant to the terms of
any Loan Terms Schedule:
(i) Borrower shall obtain and maintain for the Term, at its own
expense, (x) "all risk" insurance against loss or damage to the Collateral and
(y) commercial general liability insurance (including contractual lability,
products liability and completed operations coverages) reasonably satisfactory
to Lender; provided that product liability insurance shall not be required
until Borrower conducts prospective human clinical trials of any of its
products or provides clinical laboratory services for a third party. The amount
of the "all risk" insurance shall be the greater of (x) the replacement value
of the Collateral (as new) or (y) the Loan Value of the Loan Amount applicable
to each Loan.
(ii) The deductible with respect to "all-risk" insurance required by
clause (x) above and product liability insurance required by clause (y) above
shall not exceed $25,000; otherwise there shall be no deductible with respect
to any insurance required to be maintained hereunder. The amount of commercial
general liability insurance (other than products liability coverage and
completed operations insurance) required by clause (y) above shall be at least
$5,000,000 per occurrence. The amount of the products liability and complete
operations insurance required by clause (y) above shall be at least $5,000,000
per occurrence. Each "all risk" policy shall: (x) name Lender as sole loss
payee with respect to the Equipment, (y) provide for each insurer's waiver of
its right of subrogation against Lender, and (z) provide that such insurance
(A) shall not be invalidated by any action of, or breach of warranty by,
Borrower of a provision of any of its insurance policies, and (B) shall waive
set-off, counterclaim or offset against Lender. Each liability policy shall (w)
name Lender as an additional insured an (x) provide that such insurance shall
have cross-liability and severability of interest endorsements (which shall not
increase the aggregate policy limits of Borrower's insurance). All insurance
policies shall (y) provide that Borrower's insurance shall be primary without a
right of contribution of Lender's insurance, if any, or any obligation on the
part of Lender to pay premiums of Borrower, and (z) shall contain a clause
requiring the insurer to give Lender at least 30 days' prior written notice of
its cancellation (other than cancellation for non-payment for which 10 days'
notice shall be sufficient). Borrower shall on or prior to the first Funding
Date and prior to each policy renewal, furnish to Lender certificates of
insurance or other evidence satisfactory to Lender that such insurance coverage
is in effect. Upon the expiration or termination of the Term, Lender shall
cease to be the sole payee with respect to the Equipment and shall cease to be
named as an additional insured on each insurance policy relating to the
Collateral.
(e) Loss: Damage; Destruction and Seizure.
(i) Borrower shall bear the risk of the Collateral being lost,
stolen, destroyed, damaged or seized by a governmental authority for any reason
whatsoever at any time until the expiration or termination of the Term.
(ii) Except as set forth in Section 6.01(e)(iii), if during the Term
any item of Equipment is lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged or seized by a
governmental authority for a period equal to at least the remainder of the Term
(an "Event of Loss"), then Lender shall receive from the proceeds of insurance
maintained pursuant to Section 6.01(d), from any award paid by the seizing
governmental authority or, to the extent not received from the proceeds of
insurance or award or both, from Borrower, on or before the Payment Date next
succeeding such Event of Loss, an amount equal to the sum of: (x) all accrued
and unpaid Scheduled Payments with respect to such Loan due prior to the next
such Payment Date, (y) a prepayment in an amount equal to the Loan Value, with
respect to such Loan, multiplied by the Stated Cost of each affected item of
Collateral and (z) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and
payable hereunder with respect to such Loan, including interest at the Default
Rate with respect to any past due amounts. On the date of receipt by Lender of
the amount specified hereinabove with respect to each such item of Collateral
subject to an Event of Loss, the provisions of this Agreement shall terminate
11
12
as to such Collateral. Any proceeds of insurance maintained by Borrower
pursuant to Section 6.10(d) and received by Borrower shall be paid to Lender
promptly upon their receipt by Borrower. If any proceeds of insurance or awards
received from governmental authorities are in excess of the amount owed under
this Section 6.01(e), Lender shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount
in excess of the amount owed to Lender.
(iii) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
any proceeds of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 6.01(d) received by
Lender or Borrower with respect to an item of Collateral the repair of which is
practicable shall, at the election of Borrower, be applied either to the repair
or replacement of such Collateral or, upon Lender's receipt of evidence of the
repair or replacement of the Collateral reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to
the reimbursement of Borrower for the cost of such repair or replacement. All
replacement parts and equipment acquired by Borrower in replacement of
Collateral pursuant to this Section 6.01(e)(iii) shall immediately become part
of the Collateral upon acquisition by Borrower. Borrower shall take such actions
and provide such documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lender to
protect and preserve Lender's first priority security interest and otherwise to
avoid any impairment of Lender's rights under the Operative Documents, in
connection with such repair or replacement.
7.01. Negative Covenants. So long as the Loans or the Note or other
amounts hereunder remain outstanding, Borrower shall not:
(a) Collateral Control. Subject to its rights under Article V, (i)
terminate, waive or release any material right with respect to any Collateral or
remove any item of Collateral from Borrower's facility located at the address
set forth in Section 10.5(a) or such other address set forth in any Loan Terms
Schedule, or (ii) affix or attach or permit to be affixed or attached to any
item of Collateral any other item of property owned by Borrower or any other
lender, lessor or financing party which is not readily identifiable or separable
without any damage to such item of Collateral, without Lender's prior written
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) Liens. Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any
kind upon any Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except
Permitted Liens (other than Permitted Liens identified in clause (e) of the
definition thereof); or create, incur, assume or suffer to exist a Lien upon any
Intellectual Property to secure indebtedness to another lender or otherwise for
borrowed money.
(c) Other Dispositions of Collateral. Convey, sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of all or any part of the Collateral to any Person, except for Equipment
in which Lender shall have released its security interest pursuant to Section
5.02.
8.01. Closing. At the time of execution and delivery of this Agreement,
Borrower shall have duly executed and/or delivered to Lender the items set forth
in Part I of Schedule 3.
8.02. Other Conditions. The obligation of Lender to make each Loan shall be
subject to the execution and/or delivery to Lender of each of the items set
forth in Part I of Schedule 3 and the satisfaction of by Borrower of each
condition set forth in Part II of Schedule 3.
8.03. Covenant to Deliver. Borrower agrees (not as a condition but as a
covenant) to deliver to Lender each item required to be delivered to Lender as
a condition to each Loan, if such Loan is advanced. Borrower expressly agrees
that the extension of such Loan prior to the receipt by Lender of any such item
shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of Borrower's obligation to deliver
such item.
9.01. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" shall mean the occurrence
of one or more of the following described events: (a) Borrower shall (i) default
in the payment of principal of, or interest on, or fail to make the Final
Payment on any Loan when the same is due, or (ii) default in the payment of any
expense or other amount payable hereunder or thereunder for five (5) days after
receipt of written notice from Lender that the same is due; or (b) any
representation or warranty made herein or on a Funding
12
13
Date by Borrower in any Operative Document, or any certificate or financial
statement furnished pursuant to the provisions of any Operative Document, shall
prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect as of the time
made or furnished; or (c) Borrower shall default in the performance of any
covenant, agreement or obligation (other than a covenant, agreement or
obligation referred to in Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(e)) contained in any
Operative Document (other than the Warrant) and Borrower shall fail to cure
within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Lender any default
in the performance of any such covenant, agreement or obligation contained
therein; or (d) Borrower shall have breached the terms of the Warrant and the
same has not been cured within five (5) days after notice thereof; or (e)
Borrower fails to maintain the insurance coverage required under Section
6.01(d); or (f) any Operative Document shall in any material respect cease to
be a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable in accordance
with its terms; or (g) a proceeding shall have been instituted in a court of
competent jurisdiction seeking a decree or order for relief in respect of
Borrower in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or for the appointment of a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee (or similar official) of
Borrower or for any substantial part of its property, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, and such proceeding shall remain undismissed or
unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days or such
court shall enter a decree or order granting the relief sought in such
proceeding; or (h) Borrower shall commence a voluntary case under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect, shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary
case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking
possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian (or other
similar official) of Borrower or for any substantial part of its property, or
shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail
generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall take any corporate
action in furtherance of any of the foregoing.
9.02. Consequences of Event of Default. (a) If an Event of Default
specified under clauses (a) through (f) of Section 9.01 shall occur and be
continuing, Lender may (i) declare the Loan Value of the Loan Amount of each
Loan and all other liabilities of Borrower hereunder and under the other
Operative Documents to be immediately due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived, and (ii) terminate its commitment to make Loans hereunder
and under the Note and terminate any commitment to advance money or extend
credit to or for the benefit of Borrower pursuant to any other agreement or
commitment extended by Lender to Borrower. (b) If an Event of Default
specified under clause (g) or (h) of Section 9.01 shall occur, then immediately
and without notice (i) the Loan Value of the Loan Amount of each Loan and all
other liabilities of Borrower hereunder and under the other Operative Documents
shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and
(ii) Lender's commitment hereunder to make the Loans and any other commitment
of Lender to Borrower to advance money or extend credit pursuant to any other
agreement or commitment shall be terminated.
9.03. Rights Regarding Collateral. Borrower agrees that when any Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the rights, options,
duties and remedies of a secured party as permitted by law and, in addition to
and without limiting the foregoing, Lender may exercise any one or more or all,
and in any order, of the remedies herein set forth, including the following:
(a) Lender, personally or by agents or attorneys, shall have the right (subject
to compliance with any applicable mandatory legal requirements) to require
Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place
to be designated by Lender or to take immediate possession of the Collateral,
or any portion thereof, and for that purpose may pursue the same wherever it
may be found, and may enter any of premises of Borrower, with or without
notice, demand, process of law or legal procedure, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, and search for, take possession of, remove, keep and store the
same, or use and operate or lease the same until sold; (b) Lender may, if at
the time such action may be lawful and always subject to compliance with any
mandatory legal requirements, either with or without taking possession and
either before or after taking possession, without instituting any legal
proceedings whatsoever, having first given notice of such sale by registered or
certified mail to Borrower once at least ten (10) days prior to the date of
such sale, and having first given any other notice which may be required by
law, sell and dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at a private sale
or at public auction, to the
13
14
highest bidder, in one lot as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for
cash or on credit and on such terms as Lender may determine, and at any place
(whether or not it be the location of the Collateral or any part thereof)
designated in the notice referred to above. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, any such sale or sales may be adjourned from time to time by
announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or sales, or for any
such adjourned sale or sales, without further published notice, and Borrower,
Lender or the holder or holders of the Note, or of any interest therein, may
bid and become the purchaser at any such sale; (c) Lender may liquidate any
Collateral pledged pursuant to Section 5.01(c) and apply the proceeds thereof
to any outstanding obligations; and (d) Lender may proceed to protect and
enforce this Agreement and the other Operative Documents by suit or suits or
proceedings in equity, at law or in bankruptcy, and whether for the specific
performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in execution or
aid of any power herein granted; or for foreclosure hereunder, or for the
appointment of a receiver or receivers for any real property security or any
part thereof, or for the recovery of judgment for the Obligations or for the
enforcement of any other proper, legal or equitable remedy available under
applicable law.
9.04. Waiver by Borrower. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to
the extent permitted by law, Borrower covenants that it will not at any time
insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law now or at anytime hereafter in force,
nor claim, take nor insist upon any benefit or advantage of or from any law now
or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisement of the
Collateral or any part thereof prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made
pursuant to any provision herein contained, or to the decree, judgment or order
of any court of competent jurisdiction; nor, after such sale or sales, claim or
exercise any right under any statute now or hereafter made or enacted by any
state or otherwise to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof, and, to
the full extent legally permitted, except as to rights expressly provided
herein, hereby expressly waives for itself and on behalf of each and every
Person, except decree or judgment creditors of Borrower, acquiring any interest
in or title to the Collateral or any part thereof subsequent to the date of
this Agreement, all benefit and advantage of any such law or laws, and
covenants that it will not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or otherwise
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted and delegated
to Lender, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such power, law or laws had been made or enacted.
9.05. Effect of Sale. Any sale of Collateral, whether under any power of
sale available to Lender or by virtue of judicial proceedings, shall operate to
divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law
or in equity, of Borrower in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual
bar, both at law and in equity, against Borrower, its successors and assigns,
and against any and all persons claiming the property sold or any part thereof
under, by or through Borrower, its successors or assigns.
9.06. Application of Collateral Proceeds. The proceeds and/or avails of
the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any
remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Lender at
the time of, or received by Lender after, the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder) shall be paid to and applied as follows: (a) First, to the payment
of reasonable costs and expenses, including all amounts expended to preserve
the value of the Collateral, of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale
and the exercise of any other rights or remedies, and of all proper fees,
expenses, liability and advances, including reasonable legal expenses and
attorneys' fees, incurred or made hereunder by Lender; (b) Second, to the
payment to Lender of the amount then owing or unpaid on the Note for Scheduled
Payments and the Loan Value of the Loan Amount with respect to each Loan, and
in case such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so
due, owing or unpaid upon the Note, then first, to the unpaid interest thereon,
second, to unpaid principal thereof and third, to the remaining balance of the
Loan Value of the Loan Amount with respect to each Loan; such application to be
made upon presentation of the Note, and the notation thereon of the payment, if
partially paid, or the surrender and cancellation thereof, if fully paid; (c)
Third, to the payment of other amounts then payable to Lender under any of the
Operative Documents; and (d) Fourth, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to
Borrower, its successors and assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled
to receive the same.
14
15
9.07. Reinstatement of Rights. If Lender shall have proceeded to enforce
any right under this Agreement or any other Operative Document by foreclosure,
sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then and in
every such case (unless otherwise ordered by a court of competent
jurisdiction), Lender shall be restored to its former position and rights
hereunder with respect to the property subject to the security interest created
under this Agreement.
10.01. Modifications, Amendments or Waivers. The provisions of any
Operative Document may be modified, amended or waived only by a written
instrument signed by the parties thereto.
10.02. No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required. No delay
or failure of Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall
affect or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right,
power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right,
power or remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder of Lender are cumulative and
not exclusive of any rights or remedies which it would otherwise have. Any
waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of
Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any
provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be
effective only in the specified instance and to the extent specifically set
forth in such writing.
10.03. Expenses; Indemnification. Borrower agrees upon demand to pay or
reimburse Lender for all liabilities, obligations and out-of-pocket expenses,
including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for Lender, from time to time
arising in connection with the enforcement or collection of sums due under the
Operative Documents. Borrower shall indemnify, reimburse and hold Lender, each
of Lender's partners, and each of their respective successors, assigns, agents,
officers, directors, shareholders, servants, agents and employees harmless from
and against all liabilities, losses, damages, actions, suits, demands, claims
of any kind and nature (including claims relating to environmental discharge,
cleanup or compliance), all costs and expenses whatsoever to the extent they
may be incurred or suffered by such indemnified party in connection therewith
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), fines, penalties (and
other charges of applicable governmental authorities), licensing fees relating
to any item of Collateral, damage to or loss of use of property (including
consequential or special damages to third parties or damages to Borrower's
property), or bodily injury to or death of any person (including any agent or
employee of Borrower) (each, a "Claim"), directly or indirectly relating to or
arising out of the use of the proceeds of the Loans, including acquisition,
use, ownership, operation, possession, control, storage, return or condition of
any item of Equipment financed by a Loan or constituting Collateral (regardless
of whether such item of Equipment is at the time in the possession of
Borrower), the falsity of any representation or warranty of Borrower or
Borrower's failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any other
Operative Document during the Term. The foregoing indemnity shall cover,
without limitation, (i) any Claim in connection with a design or other defect
(latent or patent) in any item of Equipment financed by a Loan or constituting
Collateral, (ii) any Claim resulting from the presence on or under or the
escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or release of any
Hazardous Materials from any item of Equipment financed by a Loan or
constituting Collateral, including any Claims asserted or arising under any
Environmental Law, or (iii) any Claim for negligence or strict or absolute
liability in tort; provided, however, that Borrower shall not indemnify Lender
for any liability incurred by Lender as a direct and sole result of Lender's
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Such indemnities shall continue in full
force and effect, notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this
Agreement. Upon Lender's written demand, Borrower shall assume and diligently
conduct, at its sole cost and expense, the entire defense of Lender, each of
its partners, and each of their respective, agents, employees, directors,
officers, shareholders, successors and assigns against any indemnified Claim
described in this Section 10.03. Borrower shall not settle or compromise any
Claim against or involving Lender without first obtaining Lender's written
consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
10.04. Waivers. (a) Borrower shall give Lender written notice within one
hundred eighty (180) days of obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any claim
or cause of action it believes it has, or may seek to assert to allege against
Lender whether such claim is based in law or equity, arising under or
15
16
related to this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents or to the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or any act or omission to act by
Lender with respect hereto or thereto, and that if it shall fail to give such
notice to Lender with regard to any such claim or cause of action. Borrower
shall be deemed to have waived, and shall be forever barred from bringing or
asserting such claim or cause of action in any suit, action or proceeding in
any court or before any governmental agency or authority or any arbitrator. (b)
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANYWHERE ELSE, BORROWER AGREES THAT IT SHALL NOT SEEK FROM LENDER UNDER ANY
THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING ANY THEORY IN TORTS), ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
10.05. Notices; Payments.
(a) All notices and other communications given to or made upon any
party hereto in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing (including

10.06. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the latest Maturity
Date; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement shall not
affect any of the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, it being understood
and agreed that all such rights and remedies shall continue in full force and
effect until payment of all amounts owed to Lender under or in connection with
the Operative Documents, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or
otherwise.
10.07. Severability. If any provision of any Operative Document is held
invalid or unenforceable to any extent or in any application, the remainder of
such Operative Document and all other Operative
16
17
Documents, or the application of such provision to different Persons or
circumstances or in different jurisdictions, shall not be affected thereby.
10.08. Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
of Borrower contained herein or made in writing in connection herewith shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Operative Documents, the making of
Loans hereunder, the granting of security and the issuance of the Note.
10.09. Governing Law. This Agreement, the other Operative Documents and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereto and thereto shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California. Any action to enforce this Agreement against Borrower may be brought
in California or, with regard to Collateral, may also be brought wherever such
Collateral is located.
10.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Operative
Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Lender, all future
holders of the Note, Borrower and their respective successors and permitted
assigns. In the event of a proposed statutory merger of the Borrower into
another corporation or a proposed sale or transfer by the Borrower of all or
substantially all of its assets to a third party business entity, then, provided
that (i) the Borrower is not in default under this Agreement or under any other
agreement between Borrower and Lender, (ii) Lender or its assignee has been
given sufficient advance written notice of the proposed merger, sale, or
transfer together with the necessary background as to the legal status,
financial and credit worthiness of the third party to the merger sale or
transfer (collectively, a "Transferee") and the Lender or its assignee within
ten days of receipt of such written notice has approved such financial and
credit worthiness of the Transferee in accordance with its then existing credit
criteria, Lender agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold its consent to
any such transfer or assignment of this Agreement (and the transfer of the
Equipment to such Transferee), provided, that (a) the said Transferee assumes
all of the Borrower's obligations under this Agreement in form satisfactory to
Lender or its assignee (and expressly releasing the Borrower), (b) the Lender is
assured that its first perfected security interest in the Equipment will
continue in full force and effect and the Transferee executes such UCC
Financing Statements as may be necessary to accomplish the same and (c) Lender
is assured that the Equipment will be adequately covered by insurance during any
move thereof, provided, further, that should Lender reasonably withhold consent,
Borrower may prepay the Loans in whole at a prepayment price equal to the
principal amount of the Loans plus interest accrued thereon through and
including the date of such prepayment, plus a premium equal to a Make-Whole
Premium. Lender may sell to any other financial entity (a "Participant")
participation interests in Lender's rights under this Agreement and the other
Operative Documents. Lender may disclose the Operative Documents and any other
financial or other information relating to Borrower or any Subsidiary to any
potential Participant, provided that such Participant agrees to protect the
confidentiality of such documents and information using the same measures that
it uses to protect its own confidential information.
10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of
which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
10.12. Further Assurances. Borrower will, at its own expense, from time to
time do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every further acts, deeds,
conveyances, transfers and assurances, and all financing and continuation
statements and similar notices, reasonably necessary or proper for the
perfection of the security interest being herein provided for in the Collateral,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
10.13. Power of Attorney in Respect of the Collateral. Borrower does
hereby irrevocably appoint Lender (which appointment is coupled with an
interest), the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower with full power of
substitution, for it and in its name (a) to perform (but Lender shall not be
obligated to and shall incur no liability to Borrower or any third party for
failure to perform) any act which Borrower is obligated by this Agreement to
perform, (b) to ask, demand, collect, receive, receipt for, ▇▇▇ for,
17
18
compound and give acquittance for any and all rents, issues, profits, avails,
distributions, income, payment draws and other sums in which a security
interest is granted under Section 5.01 with full power to settle, adjust or
compromise any claim thereunder as fully as if Lender were Borrower itself, (c)
to receive payment of and to endorse the name of Borrower to any items of
Collateral (including checks, drafts and other orders for the payment of money)
that come into Lender's possession or under Lender's control, (d) to make all
demands, consents and waivers, or take any other action with respect to, the
Collateral, (e) in Lender's discretion, to file any claim or take any other
action or institute proceedings, either in its own name or in the name of
Borrower or otherwise, which Lender may reasonably deem necessary or
appropriate to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of Lender in
and to the Collateral, and (f) to otherwise act with respect thereto as though
Lender were the outright owner of the Collateral; provided, however, that the
power of attorney herein granted shall be exercisable only upon the occurrence
