The Company has exercised reasonable care, including without limitation, conducting a factual inquiry that is appropriate in light of the circumstances, into whether any such disqualification under Rule 506(d) exists. The Company has furnished to each Purchaser, a reasonable time prior to the date hereof, a description in writing of any matters relating to the Company and the Insiders that would have triggered disqualification under Rule 506(d) but which occurred before September 23, 2013, in each case, in compliance with the disclosure requirements of Rule 506(e).

Any outstanding securities of the Company (of any kind or nature) that were issued in reliance on Rule 506 at any time on or after September 23, 2013 have been issued in compliance with Rule 506(d) and (e).

The Company agrees not to effect or permit any change referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings have been made under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Purchaser to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries.
(c) Additional Collateral; Further Assurances. The Company shall execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action (including filing Uniform Commercial Code, United States Patent and Trademark Office and other financing statements not later than one (1) business day after the Closing Date) that may be required under applicable law, or that the Purchasers may reasonably request, in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity of the security interests created or intended to be created by the Notes and the other Loan Documents. Subject to any express provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company will cause any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary to become a guarantor by executing a guaranty in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D and a joinder to each applicable Loan Document in favor of the Purchasers. In addition, from time to time, the Company shall, at its cost and expense and subject to the terms of the Notes and the Subordination Agreement, promptly secure the Notes by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests with respect to such of its assets and properties as the Purchasers shall designate. Such security interests and Liens will be created under the Loan Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchasers, and the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser all such instruments and documents as the Purchaser shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section 6(c). The Company agrees to provide such evidence as the Purchaser shall reasonably request as to the perfection of each such security interest and Lien. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company will give prompt notice to the Purchasers of the acquisition by it or any of its subsidiaries of any property (or any interest in property) having a value in excess of $100,000.
(d) Indebtedness. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall not incur, create, assume or permit to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate, other than indebtedness (i) created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) up to a maximum aggregate borrowed amount of $11,000,000 under the Senior Credit Facility, (iii) constituting or arising in connection with a purchase money security interest arising in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the Company’s past practice, so long as the same is not a material obligation of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iv) constituting trade debt arising in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the Company’s past practices.
(e) Liens. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on any property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired by it or on any income or revenues or rights in respect of any thereof, except Permitted Liens (as defined in the Note), Liens created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, Liens for taxes not yet due or contested in compliance with this Agreement and Liens pursuant to customary security deposits under operating leases in the ordinary course of business.
(f) Restrictive Agreements. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall not enter into, incur or permit to exist any agreement or other arrangement that prohibits, restricts or imposes any condition upon its ability to create, incur or permit to exist any Lien upon any of its property or assets pursuant to any Loan Document, other than as required by the Senior Credit Facility and the Subordination Agreement.
(g) Transactions with Affiliates. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall not, except for transactions between the Company and a Subsidiary, sell or transfer any property or assets to, or purchase or acquire any property or assets from, or otherwise engage in any other transactions with, any of its affiliates, except that (i) the Company or a Subsidiary may engage in any of the foregoing transactions in the ordinary course of business at prices and on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties and (ii) the Company may consummate the transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2015, by and between the Company and the investors set forth in each agreement.
(h) Material Adverse Effect. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall not permit the occurrence of any Material Adverse Effect, and, in the event thereof, shall take all steps necessary and desirable, in the reasonable judgment of the Purchasers, to correct such Material Adverse Effect.
(i) Unregistered Shares; Registration of Shares.
(i) The Purchasers acknowledge that the Securities have not been registered for issuance and resale. The Company agrees (promptly following the Closing Date, but no later than forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date) to file a Form S-3 or other applicable form (the “Registration Statement”) including a resale prospectus covering sales of any Conversion Shares owned by the Purchasers and their affiliates, successors and assigns. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable, and in any event no later than (A) five (5) business days after the SEC shall have informed the Company that no review of the Registration Statement will be made or that the SEC has no further comments on the Registration Statement or (B) the 90th day after the Closing Date (the 120th day if the SEC reviews the Registration Statement). The Company will pay all expenses associated with effecting the registration of the Conversion Shares, including filing and printing fees, the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Conversion Shares for sale under applicable state securities laws, listing fees, fees and expenses of one counsel to the Purchasers and the Purchasers’ other reasonable expenses in connection with the registration, but excluding discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the Conversion Shares being sold.
(ii) The Company shall maintain the Registration Statement and the prospectuses included therein in effect for a period that will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Conversion Shares covered by such Registration Statement, as amended from time to time, have been sold, and (ii) the Conversion Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC. The Company further covenants to the Purchasers that upon request of the Purchaser, it shall enter into a registration rights agreement on customary terms reasonably and mutually acceptable to the parties, including the Company’s agreement to provide comfort letters and legal opinions in customary form as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser; provided, however, that the terms and conditions of such registration rights agreement shall be substantially the same as those contained in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2015, between the Company and the investors named therein.
(j) Proxy Statement; Stockholders Meeting.
(i) Promptly following the Closing, the Company shall take all action necessary to call a meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders Meeting”), which shall occur not later than May 31, 2015 (the “Stockholders Meeting Deadline”), for the purpose of seeking approval of the Company’s stockholders for, among other things, the issuance and sale of the Securities to the Purchasers (the “Proposal”). In the event the Proposal is not approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Stockholders Meeting, the Company shall take all action necessary to call up to three (3) additional meetings of its stockholders (each a “Subsequent Stockholders Meeting”) for the purpose of seeking approval of the Proposal, to be held promptly following the completion of the Stockholders Meeting and in no event more than one year after the Closing Date to the extent reasonably practicable. In connection with the Stockholders Meeting and, if applicable, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, the Company will promptly prepare and file with the SEC proxy materials (including a proxy statement and form of proxy) for use at the Stockholders Meeting and, if applicable, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, and, after receiving and promptly responding to any comments of the SEC thereon, shall promptly mail such proxy materials (or, if permitted, notice of the availability of such proxy materials) to the stockholders of the Company. Each Purchaser shall promptly furnish in writing to the Company such information relating to such Purchaser and its investment in the Company as the Company may reasonably request for inclusion in each Proxy Statement. The Company will comply with Section 14(a) of the 1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder in relation to any proxy statement (as amended or supplemented, each a “Proxy Statement”) and any form of proxy to be sent or made available to the stockholders of the Company in connection with the Stockholders Meeting or, if applicable, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, and each Proxy Statement shall not, on the date that such Proxy Statement (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) is first mailed or made available to stockholders or at the time of the Stockholders Meeting or any Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein not false or misleading, or omit to state any material fact necessary to correct any statement in any earlier communication with respect to the solicitation of proxies or the Stockholders Meeting which has become false or misleading. If the Company should discover at any time prior to the Stockholders Meeting or, if applicable, any Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, any event relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors that is required to be set forth in a supplement or amendment to the applicable Proxy Statement, in addition to the Company's obligations under the 1934 Act, the Company will promptly inform the Investors thereof. The date on which the Proposal is approved by the Company’s stockholders is referred to herein as the “Approval Date.”
(ii) Subject to their fiduciary obligations under applicable law (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors after consultation with the Company’s outside counsel), the Company’s Board of Directors shall recommend to the Company’s stockholders that the stockholders vote in favor of the Proposal (the “Company Board Recommendation”) at the Stockholders Meeting and, if applicable, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, and take all commercially reasonable action (including, without limitation, the hiring of a proxy solicitation firm of nationally recognized standing) to solicit the approval of the stockholders for the Proposal unless the Board of Directors shall have modified, amended or withdrawn the Company Board Recommendation pursuant to the provisions of the immediately succeeding sentence. The Company covenants that the Board of Directors of the Company shall not modify, amend or withdraw the Company Board Recommendation unless the Board of Directors (after consultation with the Company’s outside counsel) shall determine in the good faith exercise of its business judgment that maintaining the Company Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duty to the Company’s stockholders. Whether or not the Company’s Board of Directors modifies, amends or withdraws the Company Board Recommendation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall in accordance with Section 146 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, (A) take all action necessary to convene the Stockholders Meeting and, if necessary, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting as promptly as practicable, but no later than the Stockholders Meeting Deadline with respect to the Stockholders Meeting and as soon as practicable with respect to each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting, to consider and vote upon the approval of the Proposal and (B) submit the Proposal at the Stockholders Meeting or, if applicable, each Subsequent Stockholders Meeting to the stockholders of the Company for their approval. The Company represents and warrants to the Purchasers that, as of the date hereof, the Company has received executed voting agreements from stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding stock to vote in favor of the Proposal.

Form of Guaranty
THIS GUARANTY ("Guaranty") is made as of this [__] day of [__], 2015, by [____________], a [___________] (the "Guarantor"), in favor of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, III, Milfam II L.P., a Georgia limited partnership, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust A-4 (collectively, the “Lender”), to guarantee all Obligations (as defined below) of Selectica, Inc., a Delaware corporation and owner of one hundred percent (100%) of the equity of Guarantor ("Debtor").
To secure the prompt and faithful payment and satisfaction of the Junior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes, dated as of March 11, 2015, and executed by Debtor in favor of Lender (the “Notes”), in the aggregate amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) due and owing to Lender (the "Obligations"), Guarantor unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely guarantees the full and prompt payment and satisfaction of the Obligations when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the meanings set forth in the Notes.
Lender may, from time to time, and in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty, the Notes, Note Agreement and other Loan Documents, and without notice to Guarantor, take any or all of the following actions: (a) retain or obtain a Lien against any property, including the Guarantor Collateral (as defined below), to secure any of the Obligations or this Guaranty; (b) subject to the terms of the Note Agreement, retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any obligor or obligors, in addition to the Guarantor, with respect to any of the Obligations; (c) extend or renew for one or more periods all or any part of the Obligations, whether or not longer than the original periods, or modify or alter any of the terms or provisions (including, by way of example and not limitation, the interest rate, maturity, or installment amount) of any of the Obligations, or accelerate or exchange any of the Obligations, or release Debtor or compromise any of the Obligations of any guarantor or any obligor with respect to any of the Obligations; (d) release its security interest or encumbrance in, or surrender, sell, transfer, exchange, substitute, dispose of, or otherwise deal with all or any part of any collateral, including the Guarantor Collateral; (e) discharge, release, compound or settle with Debtor or any guarantor as to the Obligations; (f) file, or elect not to file, a proof of claim against the estate of any bankrupt, insolvent, incompetent or deceased Debtor, guarantor or other person or entity; or (g) apply any and all amounts received by Lender from whatever source on account of the Obligations toward the payment of the Obligations in such order as Lender may from time to time elect.
Subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreement and the Security Agreement, at any time after a default by Debtor pursuant to the Note or any Loan Document(s), Lender may ▇▇▇ Debtor or Guarantor or both to enforce the payment of any sum or for the performance of any of the Obligations, or for the recovery of damages, and without regard to the existence of additional causes of action. Guarantor shall pay Lender for all attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs of collection reasonably incurred by it in collecting any of the Obligations. The rights, remedies, and benefits provided to Lender shall be cumulative and shall not be exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits allowed by law, and may be exercised either successively or concurrently.
In connection with this Guaranty, and subject to any Permitted Liens and the terms of the Subordination Agreement, Guarantor hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in all assets of Guarantor whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including all proceeds therefrom (collectively, the “Guarantor Collateral”) to secure the payment of the Obligations, plus all interest, costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, which may be made or incurred by Lender in the disbursement, administration, and collection of such amounts, and in the protection, maintenance, and liquidation of the Guarantor Collateral. Other than in connection with any Permitted Liens or in accordance with the Subordination Agreement and the Security Agreement, Guarantor shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber any Guarantor Collateral to any third party while the Note is in effect without the prior written consent of Lender.
Guarantor shall execute and deliver to Lender, concurrently with the execution hereof, and at any time or times hereafter at the request of Lender, all financing statements, assignments, affidavits, reports, notices, schedules of accounts, letters of authority and all other documents that Lender may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Lender, to perfect and maintain perfected Lender’s security interests in the Guarantor Collateral. In addition, Guarantor irrevocably authorizes Lender, its agents, attorneys, and representatives, to file financing statements and amendments thereto, at Guarantor’s expense, necessary to establish and maintain Lender’s perfected security interest in the Guarantor Collateral. In order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated hereunder, Guarantor shall make appropriate entries on its books and records disclosing Lender’s security interests in the Guarantor Collateral. Immediately upon payment or conversion of the Note, without further notice from Guarantor, Lender shall terminate any financing statements, assignments, affidavits, reports, notices, schedules of accounts, letters of authority and all other documents used to perfect and maintain perfected Lender’s security interests in the Guarantor Collateral.
If default is made in the performance or satisfaction of any of the Obligations and such default continues beyond any applicable cure periods, Lender may, at its option, and without further notice, but subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreement, declare the Obligations due and payable, or subject to any Permitted Liens and the Subordination Agreement, sell any collateral, including the Guarantor Collateral, or any part of it, or cause it to be sold at public or private sale, and Lender may become purchaser thereof at its option.
Guarantor waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of any loans made, extensions granted, renewals, collateral received or delivered, or other action taken in reliance on this Guaranty, all demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of any note, payment of which is guaranteed by this Guaranty, and all other demands and notices of any description.
This Guaranty is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Any term of this Guaranty may be amended and the observance of any term of this Guaranty may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the prior written consent of Lender. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Guaranty shall be made in accordance with Section 7(d) of the Note Agreement. If one or more provisions of this Guaranty are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Guaranty and the balance of the Guaranty shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Guaranty may not be assigned without the prior written consent of Lender.
