Item 1.01 .                            Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement .

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a $12.0 million credit facility pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") and related financing documents with MidCap Financial Trust ("MidCap") and the lenders listed therein.  Under the Agreement, the credit facility may be drawn down in two tranches, the first of which was drawn for $10.5 million on December 30, 2015.  The proceeds of this first tranche were used to repay $10 million principal amount of short-term senior secured promissory notes, plus associated interest, loan fees and expenses.  The second tranche may be drawn after January 1, 2016.  In connection with the repayment of the short-term notes, the Company also repurchased a debenture from an unrelated party outstanding from its 2014 financing for approximately $118,000.  The Company's obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's assets.  Other financing documents included subordination agreements and other amendments with the Company's existing debenture holders from its 2014 and 2015 financings.
The credit facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 8.25%, which was 8.75% as of December 30, 2015.  The loan period is 60 months and is payable as interest only for the first 18 months.  Thereafter the loans are amortized on a straight-line basis and due in full on the maturity date, which is 60 months from the draw of the initial tranche, i.e., December 30, 2020.
In connection with entering into the credit facility, the Company issued to the lenders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 650,442 shares of the Company's commons stock at an exercise price of $1.13 per share, which equals the VWAP for the ten-day period prior to the closing date.  The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of issuance.  Upon draw down of the second tranche for $1.5 million, another warrant or warrants will be issued for the aggregate number of shares equal to 7.0% of 1,500,000 divided by the exercise price, which will equal the VWAP for the ten-day period prior to the closing date of the second tranche.  The Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
The foregoing descriptions of the Agreement, the related financing documents and the warrants are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by such documents attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, which are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 . Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of the Registrant .
On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a $12.0 million credit facility. The information contained above in Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
Item 3.02 . Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities .
                On December 30, 2015, the Company issued the warrants under the Agreement in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.  The information regarding the warrants is incorporated by reference to the summary description of the warrants contained in Item 1.01.
 
Item 8.01 . Other Events .
 
          On January 5, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had refinanced certain short term debt. The Company announced that on December 30, 2015 it refinanced $10.0 million of short-term debt by entering into a $12.0 million credit facility under the Agreement, as well as other related and ancillary agreements. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIS CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this " Agreement "), dated as of December 30, 2015 (the " Closing Date ") by and among MIDCAP FINANCIAL TRUST ,   a Delaware statutory trust (" MidCap "), as administrative agent (" Agent "), the Lenders listed on the Credit Facility Schedule attached hereto and otherwise party hereto from time to time (each a " Lender ", and collectively the " Lenders "), and MELA SCIENCES, INC. , a Delaware corporation (as such name may be changed after the date hereof to Strata Skin Sciences, Inc.) (together with each of its subsidiaries that hereafter becomes a party to this Agreement, the " Borrower "), provides the terms on which Lenders agree to lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lenders.  The parties agree as follows:
1
ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with GAAP.  Calculations and determinations must be made in accordance with GAAP.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15.  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.  All headings numbered without a decimal point are herein referred to as "Articles," and all paragraphs numbered with a decimal point (and all subparagraphs or subsections thereof) are herein referred to as "Sections."
2
CREDIT FACILITIES AND TERMS
2.1              Promise to Pay .   Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to each Lender in accordance with each Lender's respective Pro Rata Share of each Credit Facility, the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by the Lenders under such Credit Facility and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
2.2              Credit Facilities .  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender, severally, but not jointly, agrees to make available to Borrower Credit Extensions in respect of each Credit Facility set forth opposite such Lender's name on the Credit Facility Schedule, in each case not to exceed such Lender's commitment as identified on the Credit Facility Schedule (such commitment of each Lender, as it may be amended to reflect assignments made in accordance with this Agreement or terminated or reduced in accordance with this Agreement, its " Applicable Commitment ", and the aggregate of all such commitments of all Lenders, the " Applicable Commitments ").
2.3              Term Credit Facilities .
(a)              Nature of Credit Facility; Credit Extension Requests .  For any Credit Facility identified on the Credit Facility Schedule as a term facility (a " Term Credit Facility "), Credit Extensions in respect of a Term Credit Facility may be requested by Borrower during the Draw Period for such Term Credit Facility.  For any Credit Extension requested under a Term Credit Facility (other than a Credit Extension on the Closing Date), Agent must receive the completed Credit Extension Form by 12:00 noon (New York time) five (5) Business Days prior to the date the Credit Extension is to be funded.   To the extent any Term Credit Facility proceeds are repaid for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily (including repayments from insurance or condemnation proceeds), Agent and Lenders shall have no obligation to re-advance such sums to Borrower.
(b)              Principal Payments .  Principal payable on account of a Term Credit Facility shall be payable by Borrower to Lenders immediately upon the earliest of (i) the date(s) set forth in the Amortization Schedule for such Term Credit Facility (or if no such Amortization Schedule is attached, then upon Agent's demand for payment), or (ii) the Maturity Date. Except as this Agreement may specifically provide otherwise, all prepayments of Credit Extensions under Term Credit Facilities shall be applied by Lenders to the applicable Term Credit Facility in inverse order of maturity.  The monthly payments required under the Amortization Schedule shall continue in the same amount (for so long as the applicable Term Credit Facility shall remain outstanding) notwithstanding any partial prepayment, whether mandatory or optional, of the applicable Term Credit Facility.
(c)              Mandatory Prepayment .  If a Term Credit Facility is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Agent, for payment to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Credit Facility


and all other Obligations, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, (ii) any fees payable under the Fee Letters by reason of such prepayment, (iii) the Applicable Prepayment Fee as specified in the Credit Facility Schedule for the Credit Facility being prepaid, and (iv) all other sums that shall have become due and payable, including Protective Advances.  Additionally, at the election of Agent, Borrower shall prepay the Term Credit Facilities (to be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Credit Extensions under all Term Credit Facilities) in the following amounts:  (A) on the date on which any Credit Party (or Agent as loss payee or assignee) receives any casualty proceeds in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for personal property, or in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for real property, in respect of assets upon which Agent maintained a Lien, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such proceeds (net of out-of-pocket expenses and, in the case of personal property, repayment of any permitted purchase money debt  encumbering the personal property that suffered such casualty), or such lesser portion of such proceeds as Agent shall elect to apply to the Obligations; and (B) upon receipt by any Credit Party of the proceeds of any asset disposition of personal property not made in the Ordinary Course of Business (other than transfers permitted by Section 7.1) an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the net cash proceeds of such asset disposition (net of out-of-pocket expenses and repayment of any permitted purchase money debt encumbering such asset), or such lesser portion as Agent shall elect to apply to the Obligations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option of applying the proceeds of any casualty policy up to ($250,000) in the aggregate with respect to any property loss in any one year, toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property; provided that any such replaced or repaired property (x) shall be of greater, equal, or like value as the replaced or repaired Collateral and (y) shall be deemed Collateral in which Agent and Lenders have been granted a first priority security interest, and (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, all proceeds payable under such casualty policy shall, at the option of Agent, be payable to Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, on account of the Obligations.
(d)              Permitted Prepayment .   Except as provided below, Borrower shall have no right to prepay the Credit Extensions made in respect of a Term Credit Facility.  After the Closed Period, if any, for the applicable Term Credit Facility as specified in the Credit Facility Schedule, Borrower shall have the option to prepay the Prepayable Amount (as defined below) of a Term Credit Facility advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Agent and each Lender of its election to prepay the Prepayable Amount at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, on the date of such prepayment, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Prepayable Amount, plus accrued interest thereon, (B) any fees payable under the Fee Letters by reason of such prepayment, (C) the Applicable Prepayment Fee as specified in the Credit Facility Schedule for the Credit Facility being prepaid, and (D) all Protective Advances.  The term "Prepayable Amount" means (x) $5,000,000 or more so long as no more than two prepayments under this Section 2.3(d) have been made and (y) otherwise all, but not less than all, of the Credit Extensions and all other Obligations under all Term Credit Facilities.
2.4        Reserved
2.5        Reserved
2.6        Interest and Payments: Administration
(a)              Interest; Computation of Interest .  Each Credit Extension shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Interest Rate.  Each Lender may, upon the failure of Borrower to pay any fees or interest as required herein, capitalize such interest and fees and begin to accrue interest thereon until paid in full, which such interest shall be at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Interest Rate unless and until the Default Rate shall otherwise apply.  All other Obligations shall bear interest on the outstanding amount thereof from the date they first become payable by Borrower under the Financing Documents until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Interest Rate unless and until the Default Rate shall otherwise apply.  Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable under the Financing Documents 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 or other advance, the date of the making of such Credit Extension or advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension or advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension or advance.  As of each Applicable Interest Rate Determination Date, Agent 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 Credit Extensions.


 
(b)              Default Rate . Upon the election of Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is three hundred basis points (3.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the " Default Rate ").  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this subsection 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 Agent or Lenders.
(c)              Payments Generally .  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.6(c) or otherwise in this Agreement or as otherwise directed by Agent, all payments in respect of the Obligations shall be made to Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share.  Payments of principal and interest in respect of any Credit Facility identified on the Credit Facility Schedule as "Term" shall be made to Agent for the account of each applicable Lender.  All Obligations are payable upon demand of Agent in the absence of any other due date specified herein.  All fees payable under the Financing Documents shall be deemed non-refundable as of the date paid.  Any payment required to be made to Agent or a Lender under this Agreement may be made by debit or automated clearing house payment initiated by Agent or such Lender from any of Borrower's deposit accounts, including the Designated Funding Account, and Borrower hereby authorizes Agent and each Lender to debit any such accounts for any amounts Borrower owes hereunder when due.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall tender to Agent and Lenders any authorization forms as Agent or any Lender may require to implement such debit or automated clearing house payment.  These debits or automated clearing house payments shall not constitute a set-off. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 4:00 p.m. New York time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid. All payments to be made by Borrower under any Financing Document shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.  The balance of the Obligations, as recorded in Agent's books and records at any time, shall be conclusive and binding evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by each Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower's duty to pay all amounts owing hereunder or under any Financing Document.  Agent shall provide Borrower with a monthly statement regarding the Credit Extensions (but neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability if Agent shall fail to provide any such statement).  Unless Borrower notifies Agent of any objection to any such statement (specifically describing the basis for such objection) within ninety (90) days after the date of receipt thereof, it shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein.
(d)              Interest Payments; Maturity Date .  Commencing on the first (1 st ) Payment Date following the funding of a Credit Extension, and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest, in arrears, calculated as set forth in this Section 2.6.  All unpaid principal and accrued interest is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date or any earlier date specified herein.  If the Obligations are not paid in full on or before the Maturity Date, all interest thereafter accruing shall be payable immediately upon accrual.
(e)              Fees .  Borrower shall pay, as and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letters, to Agent and each Lender, as applicable, for their own accounts and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, the fees set forth in the Fee Letters.
(f)              Protective Advances .  Borrower shall pay to Agent for the account of Lenders all Protective Advances (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement, the Warrants and the other Financing Documents) when due under any Financing Document (and in the absence of any other due date specified herein, such Protective Advances shall be due upon demand).
(g)       Maximum Lawful Rate .  In no event shall the interest charged hereunder with respect to the Obligations exceed the maximum amount permitted under the Laws of the State of Maryland.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Financing Document, if at any time the rate of interest payable hereunder (the " Stated Rate ") would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable Law to be charged (the " Maximum Lawful Rate "), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however , that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by Law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable.  Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply.  In no event shall the total interest
 


received by any Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received, had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate.  If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Lender's Credit Extensions or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such Credit Extensions or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrower.  In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.
(h)              Taxes; Additional Costs .
(i)                        Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  For purposes of this Section 2.6(h), the term "applicable law" shall include FATCA.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then Borrower shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.6(h)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.  If Borrower fails to make any such required deduction or withholding, then Agent may make any such deduction or withholding and payment to the relevant Governmental Authority.
(ii)                        Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(iii)                        Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.6(h)) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(iv)                        Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.1(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with this Agreement or any Obligation, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (iv).
(v)                        As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.6(h), Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(vi)                        Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made in connection with this Agreement or any Obligation shall deliver to Borrower and the Agent, at


the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent as will enable Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.6(h)(vii)(A), (vii)(B) and (vii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(vii)                        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)              any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)              any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)              in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any Financing Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(2)              executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)              in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the IRC, (x) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, and (y) a certification to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, a "10 percent shareholder" of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC, together with such Other Tax Certification as Agent may reasonably request from time to time; or

(4)              to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable, IRS Form W-9, and/or such Other Tax Certification from each beneficial owner as Agent may reasonably request, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide such Other Tax Certification as may be reasonably required by Agent on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)              any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such Other Tax Certification as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)              if a payment made to a Lender under any this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRC, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested


by Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRC) and such Other Tax Certification reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.6(h)(vi) or (vii) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(viii)          If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.6(h) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.6(h)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(ix)          If any Lender shall determine in its commercially reasonable judgment that the adoption or taking effect of, or any change in, any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy, in each instance, after the Closing Date, or any change after the Closing Date in the interpretation, administration or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation, administration or application thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request, guideline or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency adopted or otherwise taking effect after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such controlling Person's capital as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such adoption, taking effect, change, interpretation, administration, application or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or such controlling Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy) then from time to time, upon written demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Agent), Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (A) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (B) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a "change in applicable Law", regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.
(x)          If any Lender requires compensation under this subsection (h), or requires any Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to this subsection (h), then, upon the written request of Borrower, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Credit Extensions hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder (subject to the terms of this Agreement) to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (A) would eliminate or materially reduce amounts payable pursuant to any such subsection, as the case may be, in the future, and (B) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (as determined in its sole discretion).  Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(xi)          Each party's obligations under this Section 2.6(h) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations hereunder.


                     (i)                            Administrative Fees and Charges

(ii)      If payments of principal or interest due on the Obligations, or any other amounts due hereunder or under the other Financing Documents, are not timely made and remain overdue for a period of five (5) days, Borrower, without notice or demand by Agent, promptly shall pay to Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, as additional compensation to Agent in administering the Obligations, an amount equal to five percent (5.0%) of each delinquent payment.
2.7              Secured Promissory Notes .   At the election of any Lender made as to each Credit Facility for which it has made Credit Extensions,   each Credit Facility shall be evidenced by one or more secured promissory notes in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and Lenders (each a " Secured Promissory Note ").  Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured Promissory Note, Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in the same amount thereof and of like tenor.

10.2              Rights and Remedies .

(b)              Without limiting the rights of Agent and Lenders set forth in Section 10.2(a) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right,   without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:
(i) with or without legal process, enter any premises where the Collateral may be and take possession of and remove the Collateral from the premises or store it on the premises, and foreclose upon and/or sell, lease or liquidate, the Collateral, in whole or in part;
(ii) apply to the Obligations (A) any balances and deposits of any Credit Party that Agent or any Lender or any Affiliate of Agent or a Lender holds or controls, or (B) any amount held or controlled by Agent or any Lender or any Affiliate of Agent or a Lender owing to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party;
(iii) settle, compromise or adjust and grant releases with respect to disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Agent considers advisable, notify any Person owing any Credit Party money of Agent's security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such Account;
(iv) 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 Agent requests and make it available as Agent designates.  Agent may also render any or all of the Collateral unusable at a Credit Party's premises and may dispose of such Collateral on such premises without liability for rent or costs. Borrower grants Agent a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Agent's rights or remedies;
(v) pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred;
(vi)  ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, and/or advertise for sale, the Collateral.  Agent 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 including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof) and, in connection with Agent's exercise of its rights under this Article 10, Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall be deemed to inure to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders;
(vii)  place a "hold" on any account maintained with Agent or the Lenders or any Affiliate of Agent or a Lender 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;
(viii) demand and receive possession of the Books of Borrower and the other Credit Parties; and
(ix) exercise all other rights and remedies available to Agent under the Financing Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
10.3              Notices .  Any notice that Agent is required to give to a Credit Party under the UCC of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made shall be deemed to constitute reasonable notice if such notice is given in accordance with this Agreement at least five (5) days prior to such action.
10.4              Protective Payments .  If any Credit Party fails to pay or perform any covenant or obligation under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, Agent may pay or perform such covenant or obligation, and all amounts so paid by Agent are Protective Advances and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate for the Credit Facilities hereunder, and secured by the Collateral.  No such payments or performance by Agent shall be construed as an agreement to make similar payments or performance in the future or constitute Agent's waiver of any Event of Default.
10.5              Liability for Collateral No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative .  So long as Agent and the Lenders comply with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Agent and the Lenders, Agent and the Lenders 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.  Agent's failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Agent thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Agent and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  Agent's rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are cumulative.  Agent has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by Law, or in equity.  Agent's exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Agent's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Agent's delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
10.6              Application of Payments and Proceeds .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower, for itself and the other Credit Parties, irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of Borrower of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower and the Credit Parties on the one hand and Agent and Lenders on the other, Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Agent, and (ii) unless the Agent and the Lenders shall agree otherwise, the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first , to the Protective Advances; second , to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third , to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding; and fourth , to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Credit Parties owing to Agent or any Lender under the Financing Documents.  Borrower shall remain fully liable for any deficiency.  Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrower or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.  Unless the Agent and the Lenders shall agree otherwise, in carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category.


10.7              Waivers .
(a)              Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives:  (i) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Financing Documents and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Agent or Lenders may do in this regard; (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent's or any Lender's entry upon the premises of a Borrower, the taking possession or control of, or to Agent's or any Lender's replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent or any Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption Laws.  Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.
(b)              Each Borrower for itself and all its successors and assigns, (i) agrees that its liability shall not be in any manner affected by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification granted or consented to by Lender; (ii) consents to any indulgences and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Agent or any Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of the Financing Documents, and to any substitution, exchange or release of the Collateral, or any part thereof, with or without substitution, and agrees to the addition or release of any Borrower, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties, or whether primarily or secondarily liable, without notice to any other Borrower and without affecting its liability hereunder; (iii) agrees that its liability shall be unconditional and without regard to the liability of any other Borrower, Agent or any Lender for any tax on the indebtedness; and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by law, expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing.
(c)              To the extent that Agent or any Lender may have acquiesced in any noncompliance with any requirements or conditions precedent to the closing of the Credit Facilities or to any subsequent disbursement of Credit Extensions, such acquiescence shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by Agent or any Lender of such requirements with respect to any future Credit Extensions and Agent may at any time after such acquiescence require Borrower to comply with all such requirements.  Any forbearance by Agent or a Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Financing Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, including any failure to accelerate the maturity date of the Credit Facilities, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy nor shall it serve as a novation of the Financing Documents or as a reinstatement of the Obligations or a waiver of such right of acceleration or the right to insist upon strict compliance of the terms of the Financing Documents.  Agent's or any Lender's acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Financing Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Agent's and such Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment.  The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other Liens or charges by Agent as the result of an Event of Default shall not be a waiver of Agent's right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations, nor shall Agent's receipt of any condemnation awards, insurance proceeds, or damages under this Agreement operate to cure or waive any Credit Party's default in payment of sums secured by any of the Financing Documents.
(d)              Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, each Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Agent and Lenders shall not be subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Agent or Lenders shall remain in full force and effect until Agent or Lenders have exhausted all remedies against the Collateral and any other properties owned by Borrower and the Financing Documents and other security instruments or agreements securing the Obligations have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of Borrower's obligations under the Financing Documents.
(e)              Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Financing Document shall be construed as requiring Agent or any Lender to resort to any part of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of Borrower's obligations under the Financing Documents in preference or priority to any other Collateral, and Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of Borrower's obligations under the Financing Documents.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Collateral any equitable right otherwise available to any Credit Party which would require the separate sale of any of the Collateral or requireAgent or Lenders to exhaust their remedies against any part of the Collateral before proceeding against any other part of the Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure each Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Agent, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of each part of the Collateral.
10.8              Injunctive Relief .  The parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any Credit Party's obligations under any Financing Documents, Agent and Lenders may have no adequate remedy in money damages and, accordingly, shall be entitled to an injunction (including, without limitation, a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, writ of attachment, or order compelling an audit) against such breach or threatened breach, including, without limitation, maintaining any cash management and collection procedure described herein.  However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other legal or equitable remedies in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement.  Each Credit Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the requirement of the posting of any bond in connection with such injunctive relief.  By joining in the Financing Documents as a Credit Party, each Credit Party specifically joins in this Section 10.8 as if this Section 10.8 were a part of each Financing Document executed by such Credit Party.

13              GENERAL PROVISIONS
13.1              Successors and Assigns .
(a)              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 Agent's prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Agent's discretion).   Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Lender's Applicable Commitment and/or Credit Extensions, together with all related obligations of such Lender hereunder; provided that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender shall assign any of such Lender's rights or obligations hereunder to a direct competitor of any Credit Party.  Borrower and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in form and substance acceptable to Agent, executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto, and shall have received such other information regarding such Eligible Assignee as Agent reasonably shall require.  Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;

provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. If requested by Agent, Borrower agrees to (i) execute any documents reasonably required to effectuate and acknowledge each assignment of an Applicable Commitment or Credit Extension to an assignee hereunder, (ii) make Borrower's management available to meet with Agent and prospective participants and assignees of Applicable Commitments or Credit Extensions and (iii) assist Agent or the Lenders in the preparation of information relating to the financial affairs of Borrower as any prospective participant or assignee of an Applicable Commitment or Credit Extension reasonably may request.
(b)              From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent of the interests assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such assignment agreement, shall be released from its rights and obligations hereunder (other than those that survive termination).  Upon the request of the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective assignment agreement, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) secured notes in the aggregate principal amount of the Eligible Assignee's Credit Extensions or Applicable Commitments (and, as applicable, secured promissory notes in the principal amount of that portion of the principal amount of the Credit Extensions or Applicable Commitments retained by the assigning Lender).
(c)              Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at its offices located in Bethesda, Maryland a copy of each assignment agreement delivered to it and a Register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Credit Extensions owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof (the " Register "). The entries in such Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this  purpose as an agent of Borrower maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant's interest in the Obligations (each, a " Participant Register "). The entries in the Participant Registers shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. Each Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and the Agent at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the applicable Lender; provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Financing Document) to any Person (including Borrower) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a participant register.
(d)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Credit Extensions (including any Secured Promissory Notes evidencing such Credit Extensions) are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to such Credit Extensions shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein.  This Agreement shall be construed so that the Credit Extensions are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the IRC and Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.
13.2              Indemnification .
(a)              Borrower hereby agrees to promptly pay (i) (A) all costs and expenses of Agent (including, without limitation, the costs, expenses and reasonable fees of counsel to, and independent appraisers and consultants retained by, Agent) in connection with the examination, review, due diligence investigation, documentation, negotiation, closing and syndication of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, and in connection with the continued administration of the Financing Documents including (1) any amendments, modifications, consents and waivers to and/or under any and all Financing Documents, and (2) any periodic public record searches conducted by or at the request of Agent (including, without limitation, title investigations, UCC

searches, fixture filing searches, judgment, pending litigation and tax lien searches and searches of applicable corporate, limited liability, partnership and related records concerning the continued existence, organization and good standing of certain Persons), and (B) costs and expenses of Agent in connection with the performance by Agent of its rights and remedies under the Financing Documents; (ii) without limitation of the preceding clause (i), all costs and expenses of Agent in connection with the creation, perfection and maintenance of Liens pursuant to the Financing Documents; (iii) without limitation of the preceding clause (i), all costs and expenses of Agent in connection with (A) protecting, storing, insuring, handling, maintaining or selling any Collateral, (B) any litigation, dispute, suit or proceeding relating to any Financing Document, and (C) any workout, collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings under any and all of the Financing Documents; (iv) without limitation of the preceding clause (i), all costs and expenses of Agent in connection with Agent's reservation of funds in anticipation of the funding of the Credit Extensions to be made hereunder; and (v) all costs and expenses incurred by Agent or Lenders in connection with any litigation, dispute, suit or proceeding relating to any Financing Document and in connection with any workout, collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings under any and all Financing Documents, whether or not Agent or Lenders are a party thereto.  If Agent or any Lender uses in-house counsel for any of these purposes, Borrower further agrees that the Obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Agent or such Lender for the work performed.
(b)              Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, pay and hold harmless Agent and Lenders and the officers, directors, employees, trustees, agents, investment advisors, collateral managers, servicers, and counsel of Agent and Lenders (collectively called the " Indemnitees ") from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the disbursements and reasonable fees of counsel for such Indemnitee) in connection with any investigative, response, remedial, administrative or judicial matter or proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto and including any such proceeding initiated by or on behalf of a Credit Party, and the reasonable expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical personnel and any commission, fee or compensation claimed by any broker (other than any broker retained by Agent or Lenders) asserting any right to payment for the transactions contemplated hereby, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Credit Facilities, except that Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnitee with respect to any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  To the extent that the undertaking set forth in the immediately preceding sentence may be unenforceable, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all such Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
(c)              Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the obligations of Borrower under this Section 13.2 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. NO INDEMNITEE SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY CREDIT PARTY OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY FINANCING DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.
13.3              Time of Essence .  Time is of the essence for the payment and performance of the Obligations in this Agreement.
13.4              Severability of Provisions .  Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
13.5              Correction of Financing Documents .  Agent and the Lenders may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in this Agreement and the other Financing Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties.


13.6              Integration .  This Agreement and the Financing 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 Financing Documents merge into this Agreement and the Financing Documents.
13.7              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, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
13.8              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 13.2 to indemnify each Lender and Agent shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.  All powers of attorney and appointments of Agent or any Lender as Borrower's attorney in fact hereunder, and all of Agent's and Lenders' rights and powers in respect thereof, are coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until 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 fully repaid and performed and Agent's and the Lenders' obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
13.9              Confidentiality .  In handling any confidential information of Borrower, each of the Lenders and Agent shall use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Financing Document and designated in writing by any Credit Party as confidential, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to the Lenders' and Agent's Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions; (c) as required by Law, regulation, subpoena, order or other legal, administrative, governmental or regulatory request; (d) to regulators or as otherwise required in connection with an examination or audit, or to any nationally recognized rating agency; (e) as Agent or any Lender considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Financing Documents; (f) to financing sources that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential; (g) to third party service providers of the Lenders and/or Agent so long as such service providers are bound to such Lender or Agent by obligations of confidentiality; and (h) in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender or Agent or any of their Affiliates is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Credit Parties or their Affiliates referring to a Lender or Agent or any of their Affiliates.  Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in the Lenders' and/or Agent's possession when disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to the Lenders and/or Agent; or (ii) is disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent by a third party, if the Lenders and/or Agent does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.  Agent and/or Lenders may use confidential information for the development of client databases, reporting purposes, and market analysis, so long as Agent and/or Lenders, as applicable, do not disclose Borrower's identity or the identity of any Person associated with Borrower unless otherwise permitted by this Agreement.  The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement. The agreements provided under this Section 13.9 supersede all prior agreements, understanding, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Section 13.9.
13.10              Right of Set-off .   Borrower hereby grants to Agent and to each Lender, a lien, security interest and right of set-off as security for all Obligations to Agent and each Lender hereunder, 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 Agent or the Lenders or any entity under the control of Agent or the Lenders (including an Agent or Lender Affiliate) or in transit to any of them.  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Agent or the Lenders may set-off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE AGENT TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SET-OFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
13.11              Publicity .  Borrower will not directly or indirectly publish, disclose or otherwise use in any public disclosure, advertising material, promotional material, press release or interview, any reference to the name, logo or any trademark of Agent or any Lender or any of their Affiliates or any reference to this Agreement or the financing evidenced


hereby, in any case except as required by applicable Law, subpoena or judicial or similar order, in which case Borrower shall endeavor to give Agent prior written notice of such publication or other disclosure.  Each Lender and Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to publish the name of such Lender and Borrower, the existence of the financing arrangements referenced under this Agreement, the primary purpose and/or structure of those arrangements, the amount of credit extended under each facility, the title and role of each party to this Agreement, and the total amount of the financing evidenced hereby in any "tombstone", comparable advertisement or press release which such Lender elects to submit for publication.  In addition, each Lender and Borrower agrees that each Lender may provide lending industry trade organizations with information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements after the Closing Date.  With respect to any of the foregoing, such authorization shall be subject to such Lender providing Borrower and the other Lenders with an opportunity to review and confer with such Lender regarding, and approve, the contents of any such tombstone, advertisement or information, as applicable, prior to its initial submission for publication, but subsequent publications of the same tombstone, advertisement or information shall not require Borrower's approval.
13.12              No Strict Construction . The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
13.13              Approvals .  Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any approval, consent, waiver or satisfaction of Agent or Lenders with respect to any matter that is the subject of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents may be granted or withheld by Agent and Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion and credit judgment.
13.14              Amendments; Required Lenders; Inter-Lender Matters .
(a)              No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, no approval or consent thereunder, or any consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom (in each case, other than amendments, waivers, approvals or consents deemed ministerial by Agent), shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Borrower, Agent and Required Lenders.  Except as set forth in clause (b) below, all such amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of the "Lenders" shall require the written consent of Required Lenders.
(b)              No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent and by each Lender directly affected thereby: (i) increase or decrease the Applicable Commitment of any Lender (which shall be deemed to affect all Lenders), (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Obligation or the amount of any fees payable hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for or waive any payment of principal of or interest on any Credit Extension, or any fees or reimbursement obligation hereunder, (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, or consent to a transfer of any of the Intellectual Property, in each case, except as otherwise expressly permitted in the Financing Documents (which shall be deemed to affect all Lenders), (v) subordinate the lien granted in favor of Agent securing the Obligations (which shall be deemed to affect all Lenders, except as otherwise provided below), (vi)   release a Credit Party   from, or consent to a Credit Party's assignment or delegation of, such Credit Party's obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents   or any Guarantor from its guaranty of the Obligations   (which shall be deemed to affect all Lenders) or (vii) amend, modify, terminate or waive this Section 13.14(b) or the definition of "Required Lenders" or "Pro Rata Share" or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender.  For purposes of the foregoing, no Lender shall be deemed affected by (i) waiver of the imposition of the Default Rate or imposition of the Default Rate to only a portion of the Obligations, (ii) waiver of the accrual of late charges, (iii) waiver of any fee solely payable to Agent under the Financing Documents, (iv) subordination of a lien granted in favor of Agent provided such subordination is limited to equipment being financed by a third party providing Permitted Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 13.14 to the contrary, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver affecting or modifying the rights or obligations of Agent hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Agent and Required Lenders
(c)              Agent shall not grant its written consent to any deviation or departure by Borrower or any Credit Party from the provisions of Article 7 without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.  Required Lenders shall have the right to direct Agent to take any action described in Section 10.2(b). Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all remedies referenced in Section 10.2 without the written consent of Required Lenders following the occurrence of an "Exigent Circumstance" (as defined below).  All matters requiring the satisfaction or acceptance of Agent in the definition of Subordinated Debt shall further require the satisfaction and acceptance of each


Required Lender.  Any reference in this Agreement to an allocation between or sharing by the Lenders of any right, interest or obligation "ratably," "proportionally" or in similar terms shall refer to Pro Rata Share unless expressly provided otherwise.  As used in this Section, " Exigent Circumstance " means any event or circumstance that, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, imminently threatens the ability of Agent to realize upon all or any material portion of the Collateral, such as, without limitation, fraudulent removal, concealment, or abscondment thereof, destruction or material waste thereof, or failure of Borrower after reasonable demand to maintain or reinstate adequate casualty insurance coverage, or which, in the judgment of Agent, could result in a material diminution in value of the Collateral.
13.15              Borrower Liability .  If there is more than one entity comprising Borrower, then (a) any Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions hereunder, (b) each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions hereunder, (c) each Borrower shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay and perform all obligations under the Financing Documents, including, but not limited to, the obligation to repay all Credit Extensions made hereunder and all other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extensions, as if each Borrower directly received all Credit Extensions, and (d) each Borrower waives (1) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law,   and (2) any right to require the Lenders or Agent to: (A) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (B) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (C) pursue any other remedy.  The Lenders or Agent may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy they have against any Credit Party or any security (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any other Credit Party's liability or any Lien against any other Credit Party's assets.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, until the indefeasible payment in cash in full of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and termination of the Applicable Commitments, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of the Lenders and Agent under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Credit Party, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by any Credit Party with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by a Credit Party with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.  Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void.  If any payment is made to a Credit Party in contravention of this Section, such Credit Party shall hold such payment in trust for the Lenders and Agent and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
13.16              Reinstatement .  This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition or other proceeding be filed by or against any Credit Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Credit Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should an interim receiver, receiver, receiver and manager or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Credit Party's assets, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a fraudulent preference reviewable transaction or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
13.17.              USA PATRIOT Act Notification .  Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) and each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and such other information that will allow Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.
13.18              Warrants .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any warrants issued to the Lenders by any Credit Party, the stock issuable thereunder, any equity securities purchased by Lenders, any amounts paid thereunder, any dividends, and any other rights in connection therewith shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Nothing herein shall affect any Lender's rights under any such warrants, stock, or other equity securities to administer, manage, transfer, assign, or exercise such warrants, stock, or other equity securities for its own account.
14              AGENT
14.1              Appointment and Authorization of Agent . Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Financing Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and none of Credit Parties nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof.  The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Financing Document, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Financing Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Financing Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority (to the exclusion of the Lenders), and is hereby authorized, to (a) act as collateral agent for Agent and each Lender for purposes of the perfection of all liens created by the Financing Documents and all other purposes stated therein, (b) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, (c) take such other action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the liens created or purported to be created by the Financing Documents, (d) except as may be otherwise specified in any Financing Document, exercise all remedies given to Agent and the other Lenders with respect to the Collateral, whether under the Financing Documents, applicable law or otherwise and (e) execute any amendment, consent or waiver under the Financing Documents on behalf of any Lender that has consented in writing to such amendment, consent or waiver; provided , however , that Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender to act as collateral sub-agent for Agent and the Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all liens with respect to the Collateral, including any deposit account maintained by a Credit Party with, and cash and cash equivalents held by, such Lender, and may further authorize and direct the Lenders to take further actions as collateral sub-agents for purposes of enforcing such liens or otherwise to transfer the Collateral subject thereto to Agent, and each Lender hereby agrees to take such further actions to the extent, and only to the extent, so authorized and directed.
14.2              Successor Agent .
(a)              Agent may at any time assign its rights, powers, privileges and duties hereunder to (i) another Lender or an Affiliate of Agent or any Lender or any Approved Fund, or (ii) any Person to whom Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, has assigned (or will assign, in conjunction with such assignment of agency rights hereunder) fifty percent (50%) or more of the Credit Extensions or Applicable Commitments then held by Agent (in its capacity as a Lender), in each case without the consent of the Lenders or Borrower.  Following any such assignment, Agent shall give notice to the Lenders and Borrower.  An assignment by Agent pursuant to this subsection (a) shall not be deemed a resignation by Agent for purposes of subsection (b) below.
(b)              Without limiting the rights of Agent to designate an assignee pursuant to subsection (a) above, Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within ten (10) Business Days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent; provided, however, that if Agent shall notify Borrower and the Lenders that no Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice from Agent that no Person has accepted such appointment and, from and following delivery of such notice, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this subsection (b).
(c)              Upon (i) an assignment permitted by subsection (a) above, or (ii) the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Agent pursuant to subsection (b) above, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this subsection (c)).  The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent and its sub-agents in respect


of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting or was continuing to act as Agent.
14.3              Delegation of Duties . Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Financing Document by or through its, or its Affiliates', agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to obtain and rely upon the advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Any such Person to whom Agent delegates a duty shall benefit from this Article 14 to the extent provided by Agent.
14.4              Liability of Agent . Except as otherwise provided herein, no "Agent-Related Person" (as defined  below) shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Financing Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Financing Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, or for any failure of any Credit Party or any other party to any Financing Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Financing Document, or to inspect the Collateral, other properties or books or records of any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof.  The term " Agent-Related Person " means the Agent, together with its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, auditors and attorneys-in-fact of such Persons; provided, however, that no Agent-Related Person shall be an Affiliate of Borrower.
14.5              Reliance by Agent . Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Financing Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or any Financing Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to any potential liability under any law, statute or regulation or (c) if Agent shall not first have received such advice or concurrence of all Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Financing Document in accordance with a request or consent of all Lenders (or Required Lenders where authorized herein) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.
14.6              Notice of Default . Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default and/or Event of Default, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower, describing such default or Event of Default. Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. While an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as Agent shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders, including without limitation,  satisfaction of other security interests, liens or encumbrances on the Collateral not permitted under the Financing Documents, payment of taxes on behalf of Borrower or any other Credit Party, payments to landlords, warehouseman, bailees and other Persons in possession of the Collateral and other actions to protect and safeguard the Collateral, and actions with respect to insurance claims for casualty events affecting a Credit Party and/or the Collateral.
14.7              Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agent . Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent herein, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

(ii)
If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to a Credit Party or paid to any other person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender.  In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to a Credit Party or such other person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
14.13              Miscellaneous .
(a)              Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Credit Extension or make any other advance required hereunder.  The failure of any Non‑Funding Lender to make any Credit Extension or any payment required by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender, an " Other Lender ") of its obligations to make the Credit Extension or payment required by it, but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Credit Extension or make any other payment required hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Financing Document or constitute a "Lender" (or be included in the calculation of "Required Lender" hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Financing Document.  At Borrower's request, Agent or a person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent's consent and in Agent's sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent's request, sell and assign to Agent or such person, all of the Applicable Commitments and all of the outstanding Credit Extensions of that Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of the Credit Extensions held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed assignment agreement reasonably acceptable to Agent.


(b)              Each Lender shall promptly remit to the other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable repayment of each Lender's portion of any Credit Extension and the ratable distribution of interest, fees and reimbursements paid or made by any Credit Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement requires payments of principal and interest to be made directly to the Lenders, a Lender receiving a scheduled payment shall not be responsible for determining whether the other Lenders also received their scheduled payment on such date; provided, however , if it is determined that a Lender received more than its ratable share of scheduled payments made on any date or dates, then such Lender shall remit to the Agent (for Agent to redistribute to itself and the Lenders in a manner to ensure the payment to Agent of any sums due Agent hereunder and the ratable repayment of each Lender's portion of any Credit Extension and the ratable distribution of interest, fees and reimbursements) such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as instructed by Agent.  If any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities and whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise, shall be received by a Lender in excess of its ratable share, then (i) the portion of such payment or distribution in excess of such Lender's ratable share shall be received by such Lender in trust for application to the payments of amounts due on the other Lender's claims, or, in the case of Collateral, shall hold such Collateral for itself and as agent and bailee for the Agent and other Lenders and (ii) such Lender shall promptly advise the Agent of the receipt of such payment, and, within five (5) Business Days of such receipt and, in the case of payments and distributions, such Lender shall purchase (for cash at face value) from the other Lenders (through the Agent), without recourse, such participations in the Credit Extension made by the other Lenders as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them in accordance with the respective Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders; provided , however , that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered by or on behalf of a Credit Party from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest; provided , further , that the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by a Credit Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Applicable Commitment pursuant to Section 13.1.  Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.  No documentation other than notices and the like shall be required to implement the terms of this Section.  The Agent shall keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section and shall in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases.

The term of this Agreement and the right to purchase Common Stock as granted herein shall commence on the Effective Date and, subject to Section 8(a) below, shall be exercisable for a period ending upon the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.
SECTION 3.
EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE RIGHTS.
(a)              Exercise .  The purchase rights set forth in this Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2, by tendering to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the " Notice of Exercise "), duly completed and executed.  Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than three (3) business days thereafter, the Company shall issue, at the Company's expense, to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the " Acknowledgment of Exercise ") indicating the number of shares which remain subject to future purchases under the Warrant, if any.  The delivery by the Warrantholder of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price as provided above shall constitute the Warrantholder's certification to the Company that the Warrantholder's representations contained in Section 10 of this Agreement are true and correct as of the exercise date as if remade in their entirety (or, in the case of any transferee Warrantholder, such transferee Warrantholder's certification to the Company that such representations are true and correct as to such transferee Warrantholder as of the exercise date).  The delivery by the Company of the Acknowledgement of Exercise as provided above shall constitute the Company's certification to the Warrantholder that the Company's representations contained in Section 9 of this Agreement are true and correct as of the exercise date as if remade in their entirety. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Warrantholder shall not be required to deliver this Agreement in order to effect an exercise of the Warrant hereunder.

The Purchase Price may be paid at the Warrantholder's election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant for shares of Common Stock to be exercised under this Agreement and, if applicable, an amended Agreement setting forth the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder, as determined below (" Net Issuance ").  If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company will issue shares of Common Stock in accordance with the following formula:

    
  X = Y(A-B)
A
 
Where:
 
X =  the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.
 
   
Y =  the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be exercised under this Agreement.
 
   
A =  the then-current fair market value of one (1) share of Common Stock at the time of exercise
 
   
B =  the then effective Exercise Price
 
.
- 3 -


For purposes of the above calculation, the current fair market value of shares of Common Stock shall mean with respect to each share of Common Stock:

(i)              (a) at all times when the Common Stock shall be traded on a national securities exchange, the last reported sale price reported on such national securities exchange before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined, or (b) at all times when the Common Stock shall not be traded on a national securities exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices over the three (3) trading day period ending before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined;

(ii)              if the exercise is in connection with a Merger Event, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the per share value received by the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock upon the closing of such Merger Event as determined in reasonable good faith by the Company's Board of Directors; or

(iii)              in cases other than as described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the current fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be determined in reasonable good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.

In the event of Section 3(a)(ii) or 3(a)(iii) above, the Company's Board of Directors shall prepare a certificate, to be signed by an authorized officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and method of determination of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock.  The Company's Board of Directors will also certify to the Warrantholder that this per share fair market value will be applicable to all holders of the Company's Common Stock.  Such certifications must be made to the Warrantholder, in the event of Section 3(a)(ii) above, at least ten (10) business days prior to the proposed effective date of Merger Event, and in the event of Section 3(a)(iii), promptly after exercise of this Warrant.
 
Upon partial exercise by either cash or Net Issuance, upon request by the Warrantholder and surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant prior to the expiration or earlier termination hereof, the Company shall promptly issue an amended Agreement representing the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder. All other terms and conditions of such amended Agreement shall be identical to those contained herein, including, but not limited to the Effective Date hereof.

(b)              Exercise Prior to Expiration .  To the extent the Warrant is not previously exercised as to all shares subject hereto, and if the then-current fair market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or, in the case of a Liquid Sale, where the value per share of Common Stock (as determined as of the closing of such Liquid Sale in accordance with the definitive agreements executed by the parties in connection with such Merger Event) to be paid to the holders thereof is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Agreement, unless the Warrantholder notifies the Company in writing otherwise, shall be deemed automatically exercised on a Net Issuance basis pursuant to Section 3(a) (even if not surrendered) as of immediately before its expiration determined in accordance with Section 2; provided, however, that the more specific provisions of Section 8(a) shall govern in the case of an automatic exercise upon a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale.  For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock upon such expiration shall be determined pursuant to Section 3(a).  To the extent the Warrant or any portion hereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section 3(b), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Warrantholder of the number of shares of Common Stock if any, the Warrantholder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise.

SECTION 4.
RESERVATION OF SHARES.
During the term of this Agreement, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the full exercise of the rights to purchase Common Stock as provided for herein.
SECTION 5.
NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Agreement, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
SECTION 6.
NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.
Without limitation of any provision hereof, the Warrantholder agrees that this Agreement does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise of any of the purchase rights set forth in this Agreement.
SECTION 7.
WARRANTHOLDER REGISTRY.
The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Agreement.  The Warrantholder's initial address, for purposes of such registry, is set forth in Section 12(g) below.  The Warrantholder may change such address by giving written notice of such changed address to the Company.
SECTION 8.
ADJUSTMENT RIGHTS.
The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time, as follows:
(a)              Merger Event .  In connection with a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale where the value per share of Common Stock is greater than the exercise price then in effect, the Warrant shall, on and after the closing thereof, automatically and without further action on the part of any party or other person, represent the right to receive , in lieu of the shares of Common Stock   that are issuable hereunder   as of immediately prior to the closing of such Merger Event, the consideration payable on or in respect of such shares of Common Stock less the Purchase Price for all such shares of Common Stock (such consideration to include both the consideration payable at the closing of such Merger Event and all deferred consideration payable thereafter, if any, including, but not limited to, payments of amounts deposited at such closing into escrow and payments in the nature of earn-outs, milestone payments or other performance-based payments), and such Merger Event consideration shall be paid to the Warrantholder as and when it is paid to the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, in the event of a Merger Event that is an arms length sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate of the Company (a " True Asset Sale "), the Warrantholder may either (a) exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Merger Event, or (b) permit the Warrant to continue for the term of this Agreement if the Company continues as a going concern following the closing of any such True Asset Sale.  In connection with a Merger Event that is not a Liquid Sale, the Company shall cause the successor or surviving entity to assume this Agreement and the obligations of the Company hereunder on the closing thereof, and thereafter the Warrant shall be exercisable for the same number, class, and type of securities or other property as the Warrantholder would have received in consideration for the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder had it exercised the Warrant in full as of immediately prior to such closing, at an aggregate Exercise Price no greater than the aggregate Exercise Price in effect as of immediately prior to such closing, and subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 8(a) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.
- 5 -


(b)              Reclassification of Shares .  Except for Merger Events subject to Section 8(a), if the Company at any time shall, by combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Agreement exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes of securities, this Agreement shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Agreement immediately prior to such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change. The provisions of this Section 8(b) shall similarly apply to successive combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.
(c)              Subdivision or Combination of Shares .  If the Company at any time shall combine or subdivide its Common Stock, (i) in the case of a subdivision, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately increased, or (ii) in the case of a combination, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately decreased.
(d)              Stock Dividends .  If the Company at any time while this Agreement is outstanding and unexpired shall:
(i)              pay a dividend with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, and the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately increased; or
(ii)              make any other dividend or distribution on or with respect to Common Stock, except any dividend or distribution (A) in cash, or (B) specifically provided for in any other clause of this Section 8, then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant a proportionate share of any such distribution as though it were the holder of the Common Stock (or other stock for which the Common Stock is convertible) as of the record date fixed for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution.
(e)              Notice of Certain Events .  If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its outstanding Common Stock, payable in stock, cash, property or other securities (provided that the Warrantholder in its capacity as lender under the Credit and Security Agreement consents to such dividend); (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) the Company shall effect a closing of any Merger Event; or (iv) there shall be any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give the Warrantholder notice thereof at the same time and in the same manner as it gives notice thereof to the holders of outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, in the case of subclause (iii), the Company shall give the Warrantholder notice thereof not later than ten (10) business days prior to the closing thereof setting forth the material terms and conditions thereof, and shall provide the Warrantholder with copies of the draft transaction agreements and other documents in connection therewith and with such other information respecting such proposed Merger Event as may reasonably be requested by the Warrantholder.
- 6 -


(f)              Notice of Adjustments .  Whenever any Exercise Price or the kind or number of securities issuable under this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall prepare a certificate signed by an officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Exercise Price and number or kind of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment, and within thirty (30) days of such adjustment shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Warrantholder.

SECTION 9.
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
(a)              Reservation of Common Stock .  The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock, if any, that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by the Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will, at all times during the term hereof, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the full exercise of the rights represented by the Warrant.  If at any time during the term hereof the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of the Warrant in full, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the reasonable opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. This Warrant has been validly issued and is free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer set forth herein and under applicable state and federal securities laws. Subject to applicable restrictions on transfer, the issuance and delivery of this Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are not subject to any preemptive or other similar rights or any liens or encumbrances except as specifically set forth in the Company's Charter or this Warrant. The Company agrees that it will, and will cause its subsidiaries and representatives to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to list and qualify the shares of Common Stock that are issued to the Warrantholder upon the exercise of this Warrant for trading on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange then applicable as soon as reasonably practicable following the satisfaction of the Company's obligations under the June 2015 Registration Rights Agreement. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Warrantholder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant or the June 2015 Registration Rights Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Warrantholder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
(b)              Due Authority; No Conflict; Corporate Organization .  The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder, including the issuance to the Warrantholder of the right to acquire the shares of Common Stock, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.  The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement will not result in (a) any violation of, be in conflict with, or constitute a default under, with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice (i) the Company's Charter or current bylaws; (ii) any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to it; (iii) any provision
- 7 -


(c)              of any judgment, decree, or order to which Company is a party, by which it is bound, or to which any of its material assets are subject, or (iv) any contract, obligation, or commitment to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, or (b) the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company.  This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The Company (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted; and (c) is qualified as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where such qualification is required.

or to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice.
(h)              Entire Agreement; Amendments .  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  None of the terms of this Agreement may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.  This Agreement does not supersede any confidentiality agreement between the Company and the Warrantholder.
(i)              Headings .  The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.
(j)              Advice of Counsel .  Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12(n), 12(o), 12(p) and 12(q).

(n)              Governing Law .  This Agreement has been negotiated and delivered to the Warrantholder in the State of Delaware, and shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Warrantholder in the State of Delaware.  Delivery of Common Stock to the Warrantholder by the Company under this Agreement is due in the State of Delaware.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.
(o)              Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial .  Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.  EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE WARRANTHOLDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, "CLAIMS") ASSERTED BY THE COMPANY AGAINST THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE AGAINST THE COMPANY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.  This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve persons or entities other the Company and the Warrantholder; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between the Company and the Warrantholder; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement.
(p)              Arbitration .  If the Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial set forth in Section 12(o) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of JAMS (the " Rules "), such arbitration to occur before one arbitrator, which arbitrator shall be a retired Federal court judge.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on the parties, and shall be final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by the prevailing party as a final judgment of such court.
(q)              Pre-arbitration Relief .  In the event Claims are to be resolved by arbitration, either party may seek from a court of competent jurisdiction, any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by binding arbitration.
(r)              Counterparts .  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
(s)              Specific Performance .  The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the Warrantholder by reason of the Company's failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by the Warrantholder.  If the Warrantholder institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that the Warrantholder has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.
(t)              Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant .  If the Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.  Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
- 12 -


(u)              Charges, Taxes and Expenses .  Issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any United States or state of the United States documentary stamp tax or other incidental expense with respect to the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder.
(v)              Legends .  To the extent required by applicable laws, the Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder (and the securities issuable, directly or indirectly, upon conversion of such shares of Common Stock, if any) may be imprinted with a restricted securities legend in substantially the following form:

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

SECTION 3.
EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE RIGHTS.
(a)              Exercise .  The purchase rights set forth in this Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2, by tendering to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the " Notice of Exercise "), duly completed and executed.  Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than three (3) business days thereafter, the Company shall issue, at the Company's expense, to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the " Acknowledgment of Exercise ") indicating the number of shares which remain subject to future purchases under the Warrant, if any.  The delivery by the Warrantholder of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price as provided above shall constitute the Warrantholder's certification to the Company that the Warrantholder's representations contained in Section 10 of this Agreement are true and correct as of the exercise date as if remade in their entirety (or, in the case of any transferee Warrantholder, such transferee Warrantholder's certification to the Company that such representations are true and correct as to such transferee Warrantholder as of the exercise date).  The delivery by the Company of the Acknowledgement of Exercise as provided above shall constitute the Company's certification to the Warrantholder that the Company's representations contained in Section 9 of this Agreement are true and correct as of the exercise date as if remade in their entirety. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Warrantholder shall not be required to deliver this Agreement in order to effect an exercise of the Warrant hereunder.

The Purchase Price may be paid at the Warrantholder's election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant for shares of Common Stock to be exercised under this Agreement and, if applicable, an amended Agreement setting forth the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder, as determined below (" Net Issuance ").  If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company will issue shares of Common Stock in accordance with the following formula:

   
  X = Y(A-B)
A
 
Where:
 
X =              the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.
 
   
Y =              the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be exercised under this Agreement.
 
   
A =              the then-current fair market value of one (1) share of Common Stock at the time of exercise.
 
   
B =              the then-effective Exercise Price.
 
- 3 -



For purposes of the above calculation, the current fair market value of shares of Common Stock shall mean with respect to each share of Common Stock:

(i)              (a) at all times when the Common Stock shall be traded on a national securities exchange, the last reported sale price reported on such national securities exchange before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined, or (b) at all times when the Common Stock shall not be traded on a national securities exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices over the three (3) trading day period ending before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined;

(ii)              if the exercise is in connection with a Merger Event, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the per share value received by the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock upon the closing of such Merger Event as determined in reasonable good faith by the Company's Board of Directors; or

(iii)              in cases other than as described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the current fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be determined in reasonable good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.

In the event of Section 3(a)(ii) or 3(a)(iii) above, the Company's Board of Directors shall prepare a certificate, to be signed by an authorized officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and method of determination of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock.  The Company's Board of Directors will also certify to the Warrantholder that this per share fair market value will be applicable to all holders of the Company's Common Stock.  Such certifications must be made to the Warrantholder, in the event of Section 3(a)(ii) above, at least ten (10) business days prior to the proposed effective date of Merger Event, and in the event of Section 3(a)(iii), promptly after exercise of this Warrant.
Upon partial exercise by either cash or Net Issuance, upon request by the Warrantholder and surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant prior to the expiration or earlier termination hereof, the Company shall promptly issue an amended Agreement representing the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder. All other terms and conditions of such amended Agreement shall be identical to those contained herein, including, but not limited to the Effective Date hereof.

(b)              Exercise Prior to Expiration .  To the extent the Warrant is not previously exercised as to all shares subject hereto, and if the then-current fair market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or, in the case of a Liquid Sale, where the value per share of Common Stock (as determined as of the closing of such Liquid Sale in accordance with the definitive agreements executed by the parties in connection with such Merger Event) to be paid to the holders thereof is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Agreement, unless the Warrantholder notifies the Company in writing otherwise, shall be deemed automatically exercised on a Net Issuance basis pursuant to Section 3(a) (even if not surrendered) as of immediately before its expiration determined in accordance with Section 2; provided, however, that the more specific provisions of Section 8(a) shall govern in the case of an automatic exercise upon a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale.  For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock upon such expiration shall be determined pursuant to Section 3(a).  To the extent the Warrant or any portion hereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section 3(b), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Warrantholder of the number of shares of Common Stock if any, the Warrantholder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise.

SECTION 5.
NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP.

SECTION 7.
WARRANTHOLDER REGISTRY.
The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Agreement.  The Warrantholder's initial address, for purposes of such registry, is set forth in Section 12(g) below.  The Warrantholder may change such address by giving written notice of such changed address to the Company.
SECTION 8.
ADJUSTMENT RIGHTS.
The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time, as follows:
(a)              Merger Event .  In connection with a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale where the value per share of Common Stock is greater than the exercise price then in effect, the Warrant shall, on and after the closing thereof, automatically and without further action on the part of any party or other person, represent the right to receive , in lieu of the shares of Common Stock   that are issuable hereunder   as of immediately prior to the closing of such Merger Event, the consideration payable on or in respect of such shares of Common Stock less the Purchase Price for all such shares of Common Stock (such consideration to include both the consideration payable at the closing of such Merger Event and all deferred consideration payable thereafter, if any, including, but not limited to, payments of amounts deposited at such closing into escrow and payments in the nature of earn-outs, milestone payments or other performance-based payments), and such Merger Event consideration shall be paid to the Warrantholder as and when it is paid to the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, in the event of a Merger Event that is an arms length sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate of the Company (a " True Asset Sale "), the Warrantholder may either (a) exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Merger Event, or (b) permit the Warrant to continue for the term of this Agreement if the Company continues as a going concern following the closing of any such True Asset Sale.  In connection with a Merger Event that is not a Liquid Sale, the Company shall cause the successor or surviving entity to assume this Agreement and the obligations of the Company hereunder on the closing thereof, and thereafter the Warrant shall be exercisable for the same number, class, and type of securities or other property as the Warrantholder would have received in consideration for the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder had it exercised the Warrant in full as of immediately prior to such closing, at an aggregate Exercise Price no greater than the aggregate Exercise Price in effect as of immediately prior to such closing, and subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 8(a) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.
- 5 -


(b)              Reclassification of Shares .  Except for Merger Events subject to Section 8(a), if the Company at any time shall, by combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Agreement exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes of securities, this Agreement shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Agreement immediately prior to such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change. The provisions of this Section 8(b) shall similarly apply to successive combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.
(c)              Subdivision or Combination of Shares .  If the Company at any time shall combine or subdivide its Common Stock, (i) in the case of a subdivision, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately increased, or (ii) in the case of a combination, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately decreased.
(d)              Stock Dividends .  If the Company at any time while this Agreement is outstanding and unexpired shall:
(i)              pay a dividend with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, and the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately increased; or
(ii)              make any other dividend or distribution on or with respect to Common Stock, except any dividend or distribution (A) in cash, or (B) specifically provided for in any other clause of this Section 8, then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant a proportionate share of any such distribution as though it were the holder of the Common Stock (or other stock for which the Common Stock is convertible) as of the record date fixed for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution.
(e)              Notice of Certain Events .  If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its outstanding Common Stock, payable in stock, cash, property or other securities (provided that the Warrantholder in its capacity as lender under the Credit and Security Agreement consents to such dividend); (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) the Company shall effect a closing of any Merger Event; or (iv) there shall be any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give the Warrantholder notice thereof at the same time and in the same manner as it gives notice thereof to the holders of outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, in the case of subclause (iii), the Company shall give the Warrantholder notice thereof not later than ten (10) business days prior to the closing thereof setting forth the material terms and conditions thereof, and shall provide the Warrantholder with copies of the draft transaction agreements and other documents in connection therewith and with such other information respecting such proposed Merger Event as may reasonably be requested by the Warrantholder.
(f)              Notice of Adjustments .  Whenever any Exercise Price or the kind or number of securities issuable under this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall prepare a
- 6 -


certificate signed by an officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Exercise Price and number or kind of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment, and within thirty (30) days of such adjustment shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Warrantholder.

SECTION 9.
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
(a)              Reservation of Common Stock .  The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock, if any, that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by the Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will, at all times during the term hereof, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the full exercise of the rights represented by the Warrant.  If at any time during the term hereof the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of the Warrant in full, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the reasonable opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. This Warrant has been validly issued and is free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer set forth herein and under applicable state and federal securities laws. Subject to applicable restrictions on transfer, the issuance and delivery of this Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are not subject to any preemptive or other similar rights or any liens or encumbrances except as specifically set forth in the Company's Charter or this Warrant. The Company agrees that it will, and will cause its subsidiaries and representatives to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to list and qualify the shares of Common Stock that are issued to the Warrantholder upon the exercise of this Warrant for trading on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange then applicable as soon as reasonably practicable following the satisfaction of the Company's obligations under the June 2015 Registration Rights Agreement. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Warrantholder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant or the June 2015 Registration Rights Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Warrantholder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
(b)              Due Authority; No Conflict; Corporate Organization .  The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder, including the issuance to the Warrantholder of the right to acquire the shares of Common Stock, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.  The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement will not result in (a) any violation of, be in conflict with, or constitute a default under, with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice (i) the Company's Charter or current bylaws; (ii) any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to it; (iii) any provision of any judgment, decree, or order to which Company is a party, by which it is bound, or to which any of its material assets are subject, or (iv) any contract, obligation, or commitment to which the Company is a
- 7 -


party or by which it is bound, or (b) the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company.  This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The Company (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted; and (c) is qualified as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where such qualification is required.
(c)              Consents and Approvals .  No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, except for the filing of notices pursuant to Regulation D under the Act and any filing required by applicable state securities law, which filings will be effective by the time required thereby.
(d)              Exempt Transaction .  Subject to the accuracy of the Warrantholder's representations in Section 10, the issuance of the Common Stock upon exercise of this Agreement will constitute a transaction exempt from (i) the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act, in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof, and (ii) the qualification requirements of the applicable state securities laws.
(e)              Information Rights .  At all times (if any) prior to the earlier to occur of (x) the date on which all shares of Common Stock issued on exercise of the Warrant have been sold, or (y) the expiration or earlier termination of the Warrant, when the Company shall not be required to file reports pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or shall not have timely filed all such required reports, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to the information rights contained in Section 6.2 of the Credit and Security Agreement, and in any such event Section 6.2 of the Credit and Security Agreement is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference as though fully set forth herein; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver a Compliance Certificate once all Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit and Security Agreement) owed by the Company to the Warrantholder has been repaid.  If at any time up to the earlier of the expiration or earlier termination of this Warrant and the complete exercise of this Warrant, the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall also deliver to the Warrantholder, as soon as available and in any event within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, an updated capitalization table of the Company in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Warrantholder.
(f)              Rule 144 Compliance .  The Company shall, at all times prior to the earlier to occur of (x) the date of sale or other disposition by the Warrantholder of the Warrant or all shares of Common Stock issued on exercise of the Warrant, or (y)  the expiration or earlier termination of the Warrant if its Warrant has not been exercised in full or in part on such date, timely file all reports required under the 1934 Act and otherwise timely take all actions necessary to permit the Warrantholder to sell or otherwise dispose of the Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issued on exercise hereof pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Act as amended and in effect from time to time, provided that the foregoing shall not apply in the event of a Merger Event following which the successor or surviving entity is not subject to the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act.  If the Warrantholder proposes to sell Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Agreement in compliance with Rule 144, then, upon the Warrantholder's written request to the Company, the Company shall as soon as a reason ably practicable furnish to the Warrantholder, and in any event within one (1) business day after receipt of such request, a written statement confirming the Company's compliance with the filing and other requirements of such Rule.
(g)              Reports .  The Company has previously furnished or made available to the Warrantholder complete and accurate copies, as amended or supplemented, of its (a) Annual Report on Form 10-K for
- 8 -


the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the " SEC "), and (b) all other reports filed by the Company under Section 13 or subsections (a) or (c) of Section 14 of the Exchange Act with the SEC since December 31, 2014 (such reports are collectively referred to herein as the " Company Reports ").  The Company Reports constitute all of the documents required to be filed by the Company under Section 13 or subsections (a) or (c) of Section 14 of the Exchange Act with the SEC from December 31, 2014 through the date of this Warrant.  The Company Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder when filed.  As of their respective dates, the Company Reports did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

This Agreement has been entered into by the Company in reliance upon the following representations and covenants of the Warrantholder:
(a)              Investment Purpose .  The Warrant and the shares issued on exercise hereof will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of applicable federal and state securities laws, and the Warrantholder has no present intention of selling or engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to a registration or exemption.
(b)              Private Issue .  The Warrantholder understands (i) that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Agreement is not, as of the Effective Date, registered under the Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws, and (ii) that the Company's reliance on exemption from such registration is predicated on the representations set forth in this Section 10.

SECTION 11.
TRANSFERS.
Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, this Agreement and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the holder hereof (except for transfer taxes) upon surrender of this Agreement properly endorsed, together with, at the request of the Company, an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and all applicable state securities laws; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, this Warrant may be transferred only to an Affiliate (as defined below) of the Warrantholder.  Subject to the foregoing, each taker and holder of this Agreement, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that this Agreement, when endorsed, shall be deemed negotiable, and that the holder hereof, when this Agreement shall have been so endorsed and its transfer recorded on the Company's books, shall be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Agreement as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Agreement.  The transfer of this Agreement shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon receipt by the Company of a notice of transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit

III (the " Transfer Notice "), at its principal offices and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and other governmental charges imposed on such transfer.  Until the Company receives such Transfer Notice, the Company may treat the registered owner hereof as the owner for all purposes.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in any legend to the contrary, the Company shall not require an opinion of counsel in connection with any sale, assignment or other transfer by the Warrantholder of this Agreement, the Warrant (or any portion hereof or thereof or any interest herein or therein) or of any shares of Common Stock issued upon any exercise hereof to an Affiliate of the Warrantholder, provided that such Affiliate is an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D.

SECTION 12.

(b)              Remedies .  In the event of any default hereunder, the non-defaulting party may proceed to protect and enforce its rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at law, including but not limited to an action for damages as a result of any such default, and/or an action for specific performance for any default where the Warrantholder will not have an adequate remedy at law and where damages will not be readily ascertainable.
(c)              No Impairment of Rights .  The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any other means, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrantholder against impairment.
(d)              Additional Documents .  The Company agrees to supply such other documents as the Warrantholder may from time to time reasonably request.

or to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice.
(h)              Entire Agreement; Amendments .  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  None of the terms of this Agreement may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.  This Agreement does not supersede any confidentiality agreement between the Company and the Warrantholder.
(i)              Headings .  The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.
(j)              Advice of Counsel .  Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12(n), 12(o), 12(p) and 12(q).
(k)              No Strict Construction .  The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
(l)              No Waiver .  No omission or delay by the Warrantholder at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by the Warrantholder at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or remedy to which the Warrantholder is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of the Warrantholder to enforce such provisions thereafter during the term of this Agreement.
(m)              Survival .  All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant hereto shall be for the benefit of the respective parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.
(n)              Governing Law .  This Agreement has been negotiated and delivered to the Warrantholder in the State of Delaware, and shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Warrantholder in the State of Delaware.  Delivery of Common Stock to the Warrantholder by the Company under this Agreement is due in the State of Delaware.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
- 11 -


accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.
(o)              Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial .  Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.  EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE WARRANTHOLDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, "CLAIMS") ASSERTED BY THE COMPANY AGAINST THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE AGAINST THE COMPANY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.  This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve persons or entities other the Company and the Warrantholder; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between the Company and the Warrantholder; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement.
(p)              Arbitration .  If the Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial set forth in Section 12(o) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of JAMS (the " Rules "), such arbitration to occur before one arbitrator, which arbitrator shall be a retired Federal court judge.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on the parties, and shall be final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by the prevailing party as a final judgment of such court.
(q)              Pre-arbitration Relief .  In the event Claims are to be resolved by arbitration, either party may seek from a court of competent jurisdiction, any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by binding arbitration.
(r)              Counterparts .  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
(s)              Specific Performance .  The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the Warrantholder by reason of the Company's failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by the Warrantholder.  If the Warrantholder institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that the Warrantholder has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.
(t)              Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant .  If the Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.  Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
(u)              Charges, Taxes and Expenses .  Issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any United States or state of the United States documentary stamp tax or other incidental expense with respect
- 12 -


to the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder.
(v)              Legends .  To the extent required by applicable laws, the Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder (and the securities issuable, directly or indirectly, upon conversion of such shares of Common Stock, if any) may be imprinted with a restricted securities legend in substantially the following form:

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

2.1.              Subordination of Subordinated Loans to Senior Loans.   Each Credit Party covenants and agrees, and each Subordinated Lender likewise covenants and agrees, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Subordinated Loan Documents, that the payment of any and all of the Subordinated Loans shall be subordinate and subject in right and time of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the Payment in Full of all Senior Loans. Each holder of the Senior Loans, whether now outstanding or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, shall be deemed to have acquired the Senior Loans in reliance upon the provisions contained in this Agreement. Except as otherwise permitted under subsection 2.2 below, all of the Senior Loan shall first be Paid in Full before any Distribution shall be made to any Subordinated Lender on account of any Subordinated Loan.

2.2.              Subordinated Debt Payment Restrictions.   Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.1 above, (a) Borrower may issue, and Subordinated Lenders may accept, Conversion Shares, and (b) Borrower may make, and Subordinated Lenders may accept, Permitted Subordinated Loan Payments unless (i) a Senior Loan Payment Default has occurred and has not been cured or waived (as evidenced by a written waiver from Senior Agent to Borrower or written confirmation of cure from Senior Agent to Borrower or Subordinated Lender Representative), (ii) there exists any Blockage Period that has not been terminated or (iii) any Credit Party is then a debtor in a Proceeding.

2.3.              Enforcement of Security.

(a)              Subject to clause (b) below, until the Payment in Full of the Senior Loans, the Senior Lenders will have the exclusive right to (i) commence and maintain Enforcement Actions (including the rights to set-off or "credit bid" their debt), (ii) make determinations regarding the release or disposition of, or restrictions with respect to, the Collateral, and (iii) otherwise enforce the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law and the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction in such order and in such manner as the Senior Lenders may determine in their sole discretion without consulting with or obtaining the consent of any Subordinated Lender and regardless of whether any such exercise is adverse to the interests of any Subordinated Lender, except as otherwise required pursuant to the UCC and applicable law.  In conducting any public or private sale under the UCC, 10 days' notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable notice.  The Senior Agent and the other Senior Lenders may take Enforcement Actions pursuant to the provisions of the Senior Loan Documents all in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such Enforcement Actions may include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise
- 7 -


all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.  Except as provided in this Section 2.3, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to a Subordinated Lender under any of the Subordinated Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, a Subordinated Lender shall not take any Enforcement Action with respect to all or any portion of the Subordinated Loans or the Collateral.  Until the Payment in Full of the Senior Loans, each Subordinated Lender (A) shall not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies or the taking of any Enforcement Action under the Senior Loan Documents, and (B) waives any right it may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Senior Agent or the Senior Lenders may seek to take any Enforcement Action (including any right to object to a Senior Lender accepting any Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of Senior Loans under Section 9-620 of the UCC), regardless of whether any action or omission by or on behalf of the Senior Agent and the Senior Lenders is adverse to the interest of the Subordinated Lenders.

(b)              Notwithstanding the preceding Section 2.3(a), Subordinated Lenders may commence and may continue (i) any Permitted Subordinated Loan Enforcement Action and (ii) an Enforcement Action (other than a Permitted Subordinated Loan Enforcement Action) with respect to a Subordinated Loan Default only if: (A) the Standstill Period with respect thereto shall have elapsed; (B) any acceleration of the Subordinated Loans has not been rescinded; (C) the Subordinated Lenders have provided the Senior Agent at least 15 days' prior written notice of its intention to take such Enforcement Action, which notice (1) may be given during, but not prior to, the pendency of any Standstill Period, and (2) if such Enforcement Action will include any disposition of Collateral, will specify the principal proposed terms of the sale, identity of the expected purchasers (if known) and the type and amount of consideration expected to be received, and in any event such disposition shall be commercially reasonable in all respects and undertaken on an arm's length basis with parties that are not affiliates of any of the Subordinated Lenders; and (D) the applicable Credit Party is not then a debtor in a Proceeding; provided , however, that notwithstanding the foregoing Subordinated Lenders may not commence or continue any Collateral Enforcement Action if: (1) the Senior Agent is then pursuing with commercially reasonable diligence a Collateral Enforcement Action with respect to all or a material portion of the Collateral or attempting with commercially reasonable diligence to vacate any stay or prohibition against such exercise or (2) the Senior Agent is then engaged in either of (x) the notification of account debtors to make payments to the Senior Agent or its agents, or (y) exercising dominion over any cash or security accounts of any Credit Party.

(c)              Notwithstanding Section 2.3(a), a Subordinated Lender may (a) file a proof of claim or statement of interest, vote on a plan of reorganization (including a vote to accept or reject a plan of partial or complete liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, composition, or extension), and make other filings, arguments, and motions, with respect to the Subordinated Loans and the Collateral in any Proceeding commenced by or against any Credit Party; (b) take action to create, perfect, preserve, or protect (but not enforce) its Lien on the Subordinated Loan Collateral, so long as such actions are not adverse to the priority status in accordance with this Agreement of Liens on the Collateral securing the Senior Loans or the Senior Lenders' rights to exercise remedies or otherwise not in accordance with this Agreement; (c) file necessary pleadings in opposition to a claim objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of a Subordinated Loan or a Lien securing the Subordinated Loan; (d) join (but not exercise any control over) a judicial foreclosure or Lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral initiated by the Senior Lenders and/or Senior Agent, to the extent that such action could not reasonably be expected to interfere materially with the Enforcement Action of the Senior Lenders and/or Senior Agent, but no Subordinated Lender may receive any proceeds thereof unless expressly permitted herein; and (e) bid for or purchase Collateral at any public, private, or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral initiated by any Senior Lender, or any sale of Collateral during a Proceeding; provided that such bid may not include a "credit bid" in respect of any Subordinated Loans unless the net cash proceeds of such bid are otherwise sufficient to cause the Payment in Full of Senior Loans and are applied to cause the Payment in
- 8 -


Full of the Senior Loans, in each case, at the closing of such bid, in the case of each of clauses (a) through (e) in a manner not inconsistent with the other terms of this Agreement.

2.4.              Incorrect Payments.   If any Distribution on account of the Subordinated Loans not permitted to be made by any Credit Party or accepted by any Subordinated Lender under this Agreement is so made by a Credit Party and received by any Subordinated Lender, including without limitation as the result of the taking of any Enforcement Action by such Subordinated Lender whether or not permitted under Section 2.3 above, such Distribution shall be held in trust by such Subordinated Lender for the benefit of Senior Lenders, and shall be promptly paid over to Senior Agent for the benefit of Senior Lenders (in the form received, except for endorsement or assignment by any Subordinated Lender when required by Senior Agent) for application in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents to the payment of the Senior Loans then remaining unpaid, until all of the Senior Loans are Paid in Full.

2.5.              Subordination of Liens and Security Interests; Agreement Not to Contest; Agreement to Release any Liens.

(a)              Until the Senior Loans have been Paid in Full, all liens and security interests of the Subordinated Lenders in the Collateral (including any Subordinated Lender Lien) shall be and hereby are subordinated for all purposes and in all respects to the liens and security interests of Senior Lenders in the Collateral, regardless of the time, manner or order of perfection of any such liens and security interests and regardless of any failure, whether intervening or continuing, of Senior Lenders' liens and security interests to be perfected.

(b)              Each Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not at any time contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Senior Loans, the Senior Loan Documents, or the liens and security interests of Senior Lenders in the Collateral securing the Senior Loans.

(d)              In the event that Senior Agent releases or agrees to release any of its liens or security interests in the Collateral in connection with the compromise or sale, transfer or other disposition thereof or any of the Collateral is sold or retained pursuant to a foreclosure or similar action, the Subordinated Lenders shall be deemed to have also, automatically and simultaneously, released their liens and security interests in such Collateral, the Senior Agent shall be authorized to file releases or termination statements, as appropriate, with respect to all UCC financing statements covering such Collateral,  and the Subordinated Lenders shall (or shall cause their agent or representative to) promptly execute and deliver to Senior Agent such releases as Senior Agent shall reasonably request to effect the release of the liens and security interests of the Subordinated Lenders in such Collateral.  All proceeds resulting from any such compromise or sale, transfer or other disposition shall be applied first to the Senior Loans until payment in full thereof, with the balance, if any, to the Subordinated Loans, or to any
- 9 -


other entitled party.  In furtherance of the foregoing, Subordinated Lenders hereby waive (i) any right to notification of a disposition of any Collateral pursuant to Section 9-611 of the UCC, (ii) any right to send to Senior Agent a notification of a claim against the Collateral pursuant to Section 9-621 of the UCC, and any right to receive a notice of any acceptance by Senior Agent of Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the Senior Loans (and Subordinated Lender is hereby deemed to have consented to any such acceptance in accordance with Section 9-620 of the UCC), (iii) the right to object to (or issue a notice of objection with respect to), the acceptance by Senior Agent of Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the Senior Loans pursuant to Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC, and (iv) any other matter that would be the subject of any notification covered by Sections 9-611, 9-620 or 9-621 of the UCC.

2.6.              Senior Agent to be First of Record.   Until such time that Senior Lenders have been Paid in Full, Senior Agent shall have a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral, as evidenced by the order of recorded UCC financing statements on record against Company.  Each Subordinated Lender hereby authorizes Senior Agent (or its designee) to file a UCC financing statement against Company on behalf of the Subordinated Lenders, naming each Subordinated Lender (or its agent or representative) as Secured Party and describing the Collateral subject to the Subordinated Lender Lien (the " Second Financing Statement "), which Second Financing Statement shall be filed after the UCC financing statement filed against Company naming Senior Agent as Secured Party and describing the Collateral.

2.7.              Application of Proceeds from Sale or other Disposition of the Collateral; Agreement to Release Liens.

(a)              In the event of any sale, transfer or other disposition (including a casualty loss or taking through eminent domain) of the Collateral, the proceeds resulting therefrom (including insurance proceeds) shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents or as otherwise consented to by Senior Agent until such time as the Senior Loans are Paid in Full.

(b)              Without affecting the rights of Senior Agent or Senior Lenders under this Agreement, each Subordinated Lender agrees and consents that any Collateral securing the Subordinated Loans, in whole or in part, may be exchanged, sold or surrendered by Senior Agent for other Collateral as it may deem advisable, and that any balance or balances of funds with Senior Agent at any time outstanding to the credit of Borrower may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be surrendered or released by Senior Agent as it may deem advisable, subject, however, to the terms of the Senior Loan Documents and the Subordinated Lender Lien.  In the event that Senior Agent has determined to enforce its rights against any Collateral (including any sale, discounting or settlement by compromise of all or any portion of the Collateral), then upon Senior Agent's request, each Subordinated Lender shall promptly execute and/or deliver to Senior Agent such termination statements and releases as Senior Agent may
- 10 -


reasonably request to effect the release of the liens and security interests of such Subordinated Lender (including the Subordinated Lender Lien) in any such Collateral.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each Subordinated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Senior Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Subordinated Lender and in the name of such Subordinated Lender or otherwise, to execute and/or deliver any document or instrument which such Subordinated Lender may be required to execute, deliver and/or file pursuant to this subsection 2.7(b).

2.8.              Sale, Transfer or other Disposition of Subordinated Loan.    No Subordinated Lender shall sell, assign, pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Subordinated Loan or any Subordinated Loan Document without   the prior written consent of Senior Agent, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, unless such Subordinated Lender and proposed transferee execute and deliver to Senior Agent a joinder to this Agreement in form and substance acceptable to Senior Agent providing for the continued subordination and forbearance of the Subordinated Loans to the Senior Loans as provided herein and for the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of the Senior Lenders arising under this Agreement.

2.9.              Legends.   Until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 hereof, each Subordinated Lender will cause to be clearly, conspicuously and prominently inserted on the face of each Subordinated Loan Document, a legend, in form acceptable to Senior Agent, stating that the Subordinated Loan Document is subject to the terms of this Agreement.  Application of such legend by omnibus amendment to the Subordinated Loan Documents is acceptable to Senior Agent.

2.10.              Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy.   In the event of any Proceeding involving Borrower:

(a)              Any Distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property which would otherwise, but for the terms hereof, be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Loan shall be paid or delivered directly to Senior Agent (to be held and/or applied by Senior Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents) until all of the Senior Loans are Paid in Full.  Each Subordinated Lender irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor in possession, receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, conservator or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise deliver all such Distributions to Senior Agent. Each Subordinated Lender also irrevocably authorizes and empowers Senior Agent, in the name of Subordinated Lender, to demand, sue for, collect and receive any and all such Distributions.

(b)              Each Subordinated Lender agrees that Senior Agent may consent to the use of cash collateral or provide financing to any Credit Party on such terms and conditions and in such amounts as Senior Agent, in its sole discretion, may decide and, in connection therewith, any Credit Party may grant to Senior Agent for the benefit of Senior Lenders liens and security interests upon all of the property of any Credit Party, which liens and security interests (i) shall secure payment of the Senior Loans (whether such Senior Loans arose prior to the commencement of any Proceeding or at any time thereafter) and all other financing provided by Senior Lenders during the Proceeding, and (ii) shall be superior in priority to the liens and security interests, if any, in favor of each such Subordinated Lender on the property of any Credit Party. Each Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not object to or oppose a sale or other disposition of any property securing all of any part of the Senior Loans free and clear of security interests, liens or other claims of Subordinated Lenders under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code if Senior Agent has consented to such sale or disposition. Each Subordinated Lender agrees not to assert any right it may have to "adequate protection" of Subordinated Lender's interest in any Collateral in any Proceeding and agrees that it will not seek to have the automatic stay lifted with respect to any Collateral without the prior written consent of Senior Agent. Each Subordinated Lender waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of Senior
- 11 -


Agent's election, in any Proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code by Borrower, as debtor in possession.  Each Subordinated Lender further agrees that it will not seek to participate or participate on any creditor's committee without Senior Agent's prior written consent.

(c)              Each Subordinated Lender agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Loans requested by Senior Agent in connection with any such Proceeding and hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Senior Agent its agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim upon the failure of any Subordinated Lender promptly to do so prior to thirty (30) days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof of claim, and (ii) vote such claim in any such Proceeding upon the failure of any Subordinated Lender to do so prior to fifteen (15) days before the expiration of the time to vote any such claim; provided, however, that Senior Agent shall have no obligation to execute, verify, deliver, file and/or vote any such proof of claim. In the event that Senior Agent votes any claim in accordance with the authority granted hereby, the relevant Subordinated Lender shall not be entitled to change or withdraw such vote.  Each Subordinated Lender hereby assigns to Senior Agent or its nominee (and will, upon request of Senior Agent, reconfirm in writing the assignment to Senior Agent or its nominee of) all rights of such Subordinated Lender under such claims.

(d)              The Senior Loans shall continue to be treated as the Senior Loans and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Lenders and Subordinated Lenders even if all or part of the Senior Loans or the security interests securing the Senior Loans are subordinated, set aside, avoided, invalidated or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding, and this Agreement shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Loans is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of the Senior Loans or any representative of such holder.

EXHIBIT 99.1
 

STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. Announces Refinancing of $10.0 Million of Short-Term Debt

HORSHAM, Pennsylvania – January 5, 2016 – (NASDAQ:SSKN)  On December 30, 2015, STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. ("STRATA Skin") entered into a $12.0 million Credit and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") and related financing documents with a group led by MidCap Financial Trust ("MidCap").  Under the Agreement, the credit facility may be drawn down in two tranches, the first of which was drawn for $10.5 million on December 30, 2015.  The proceeds of this first tranche were used to repay $10.0 million principal amount of short-term senior secured promissory notes, plus associated interest, loan fees and expenses.  The second tranche may be drawn after January 1, 2016.  The Company's obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on all of STRATA Skin's assets.  Other financing documents included subordination agreements and other amendments with STRATA Skin's existing debenture holders from its 2014 and 2015 financings. In connection with the repayment of the short-term notes, STRATA Skin also repurchased a debenture from its July 2014 financing for approximately $118,000 from an unrelated party.
The credit facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 8.25%, which was 8.75% as of December 30, 2015.  The loan period is 60 months and is payable as interest only for the first 18 months.  Thereafter the loans are amortized on a straight-line basis and due in full on the maturity date, which is 60 months from the draw of the initial tranche, December 30, 2020.
In connection with entering into the credit facility, STRATA Skin issued warrants to the lenders to purchase an aggregate of 650,442 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.13 per share, which equals the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") for the ten-day period prior to the closing date.  The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of issuance.  Upon drawdown of the second tranche for $1.5 million, another warrant or warrants will be issued for the aggregate number of shares equal to 7.0% of 1,500,000 divided by the exercise price, which will equal the VWAP for the ten-day period prior to the closing date of the second tranche.  The Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
