Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 5, 2014, Nautilus, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase Bank”). The Credit Agreement provides for a $20,000,000 maximum revolving credit line, which is available through December 5, 2017 for working capital, letters of credit and general corporate purposes. Letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement are treated as a reduction of the Company’s available borrowing amount under the revolving credit line and are subject to a sub-limit of $2,000,000 in letter of credit obligations outstanding at any one time.

The interest rate applicable to each advance under the Credit Agreement may be based on Chase Bank’s floating prime rate or adjusted LIBOR, plus an applicable margin. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and asset coverage ratio, and limitations on capital expenditures, mergers and acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dispositions, dividends and investments. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a continuing security agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. Upon an event of default, the lender may terminate its commitment with respect to the credit line, accelerate all outstanding obligations and exercise its remedies under the continuing security agreement.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, Continuing Security Agreement and Line of Credit Note attached hereto as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

As of December 5, 2014, no borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Agreement, other than the funding of standby letters of credit.

1. Credit Facilities.

 

  1.1 Scope. This Agreement governs Facility A, and, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Bank and the Borrower or prohibited by any Legal Requirement (as hereafter defined), governs the Credit Facilities as defined below. Advances under any Credit Facilities shall be subject to the procedures established from time to time by the Bank. Any procedures agreed to by the Bank with respect to obtaining advances, including automatic loan sweeps, shall not vary the terms or conditions of this Agreement or the other Related Documents regarding the Credit Facilities.

 

  1.2 Facility A (Line of Credit). The Bank has approved a credit facility to the Borrower in the principal sum not to exceed $20,000,000.00 in the aggregate at any one time outstanding (“ Facility A ”). Credit under Facility A shall be repayable as set forth in a Line of Credit Note executed concurrently with this Agreement, and any renewals, modifications, extensions, rearrangements, restatements thereof and replacements or substitutions therefor.

Letter of Credit Sub-Limit. At any time the Borrower is entitled to an advance under Facility A, the Bank agrees to issue letters of credit (all letters of credit issued for the account of the Borrower which are outstanding on the date of the Line of Credit Note and any letter of credit issued under this Agreement, together with any and all amendments, modifications, renewals, extensions, increases, restatements and rearrangements of and substitutions and replacements for, any of the foregoing, a “ Letter of Credit ” or “ Letters of Credit ”) for the account of the Borrower in an amount not in excess of the maximum advance that it would then be entitled to obtain under Facility A, provided that (a) the aggregate maximum amount which is drawn and remains unreimbursed under all Letters of Credit plus the aggregate maximum available amount which may be drawn under all Letters of Credit which are outstanding at any time (the “ L/C Obligations ”), shall not exceed $2,000,000.00, (b) the issuance of any Letter of Credit with an expiration date beyond the maturity date of the Line of Credit Note shall be subject to the approval of the Bank, (c) any Letter of Credit shall be a standby or commercial letter of credit and the form of the requested Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the Bank, and (d) the Borrower shall have executed an application and reimbursement agreement for any Letter of Credit in a form satisfactory to the Bank. While any Letter of Credit is outstanding, the maximum amount of advances that may be outstanding under the Line of Credit Note shall be automatically reduced by the L/C Obligations. The Borrower shall pay the Bank a fee for each Letter of Credit that is issued, calculated at the rate of 1.00% per annum of the original maximum amount available of such Letter of Credit, with the fee being calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the period during which the Letter of Credit will be outstanding; provided , however , that such fee shall not be less than the Bank’s standard issuance fee for each Letter of Credit. No credit shall be given for fees paid due to early termination of any Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall also pay the Bank’s standard transaction fees with respect to any transactions occurring on account of any Letter of Credit. Each fee shall be payable when the related letter of credit is issued, and transaction fees shall be payable upon completion of the transaction as to which they are charged. All fees may be debited by the Bank to any deposit account of the Borrower with the Bank without further authority and, in any event, shall be paid by the Borrower within ten (10) days following billing. The Bank is authorized, but not obligated to make an advance under the Line of Credit Note without notice to the Borrower, to make payment on a drawing under any Letter of Credit. References in this Agreement to the principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facilities shall include L/C Obligations. Subject to the limits set forth in this paragraph, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, so long as no default has occurred in any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Related Documents and is continuing beyond the applicable cure period set forth therein, Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly, Borrower may obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired, or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

The Debtor agrees to complete, execute and deliver a Collateral Location Schedule to the Bank with respect to any Collateral for which the Debtor has identified a location in this agreement: (i) concurrently with the execution of this agreement, if the initial location of the Collateral is other than the address of the Debtor set forth above; and (ii) within ten (10) days prior to the relocation of any Collateral to any place other than the address of the Debtor set forth above or the location identified in any previously submitted Collateral Location Schedule.

Pledged Equity Schedule. “Pledged Equity Schedule” means a schedule in the form attached to this agreement. The Debtor agrees to complete, execute and deliver a Pledged Equity Schedule to the Bank: (i) concurrently with the execution of this agreement; and (ii) within thirty (30) days following the acquisition of any Pledged Equity Interests.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Debtor represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with the Bank that each of the following is true and will remain true until termination of this agreement and full and final payment of all Liabilities:

 

1. Its principal residence or chief executive office is at the address shown above;

 

2


2. The Debtor’s name as it appears in this agreement is its exact name as it appears in the Debtor’s organizational documents, as amended, including any trust documents;

 

3. It is or will become the owner of the Collateral free from any liens, encumbrances or security interests, except for Permitted Liens, and it will defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming any interest in the Collateral;

 

4. It will keep the Collateral free of liens, encumbrances and other security interests, except for Permitted Liens, maintain the Collateral in good repair, not use it illegally and exhibit the Collateral to the Bank on demand;

 

5. At its own expense, the Debtor will maintain comprehensive casualty insurance on the tangible Collateral against such risks, in such amounts, with such deductibles and with such companies as may be satisfactory to the Bank. Each insurance policy shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank and a prohibition against cancellation or amendment of the policy or removal of the Bank as loss payee without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Bank. In all events, the amounts of such insurance coverages shall conform to prudent business practices and shall be in such minimum amounts that the Debtor will not be deemed a co-insurer. The policies and certificates evidencing them, shall, if the Bank so requests, be deposited with the Bank. The Debtor authorizes the Bank to endorse on the Debtor’s behalf and to negotiate drafts reflecting proceeds of insurance of the Collateral, provided that the Bank shall remit to the Debtor such surplus, if any, as remains after the proceeds have been applied, at the Bank’s option, to the satisfaction of all of the Liabilities (in such order of application as the Bank may elect) or to the establishment of a cash collateral account for the Liabilities;

 

6. It will not sell, lease, license or offer to sell, lease, license or otherwise transfer the Collateral or any rights in or to the Collateral, without the written consent of the Bank, except sales of inventory to buyers in the ordinary course of Debtor’s business, sales of damaged, obsolete, surplus, or worn-out property, or as otherwise permitted herein or in the Credit Agreement;

 

7. It will not change the location of the Collateral (other than goods in transit, goods that are temporarily in the possession of repairmen, product testing services, or potential buyers or vendors as samples, or goods in temporary storage in the ordinary course of business) from Debtor’s premises, from the locations of the Collateral described in this agreement and any separate Collateral Location Schedule provided to the Bank, without providing at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Bank by means of submitting a Collateral Location Schedule, except (A) for deliveries to buyers in the ordinary course of Debtor’s business, and deliveries of damaged, obsolete, surplus or worn-out property, and (B) Collateral which consists of mobile goods (as such term is used in the 1972 Uniform Commercial Code), in which case Debtor agrees not to remove or permit the removal of such Collateral from its state of domicile for a period in excess of thirty (30) calendar days from Debtor’s premises except in the ordinary course of Debtor’s business;

 

8. It will pay promptly when due all taxes and assessments upon the Collateral, or for the use or operation of the Collateral;

 

9. No financing statement covering all or any part of the Collateral or any proceeds is on file in any public office, unless the Bank has approved that filing. From time to time at the Bank’s request, the Debtor will execute one or more financing statements or similar record and a control agreement with respect to the proceeds in form satisfactory to the Bank and will pay the cost of filing them in all public offices where filing is deemed by the Bank to be reasonably necessary or desirable. In addition, the Debtor shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such other documents as the Bank may from time to time reasonably request to perfect or to further evidence the security interest created in the Collateral by this agreement including, without limitation: (a) any certificate or certificates of title to the Collateral with the security interest of the Bank noted thereon or executed applications for such certificates of title in form satisfactory to the Bank; (b) any assignments of claims under government contracts which are included as part of the Collateral, together with any notices and related documents as the Bank may from time to time request; (c) any assignment of any specific account receivable as the Bank may from time to time request; (d) a notice of and acknowledgment of the Bank’s security interest and a control agreement with respect to any Collateral, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank; (e) a notice to and acknowledgment from any person holding or in possession of any Collateral that such persons holds the Collateral as a bailee for the Bank’s benefit, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank; and (f) any consent to the assignment of proceeds of any letter of credit, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank;

 

10. It will not, without the Bank’s prior written consent, change the Debtor’s name, the Debtor’s business organization, the jurisdiction under which the Debtor’s business organization is formed or organized, or the Debtor’s chief executive office, or of any additional places of the Debtor’s business;

 

11. It will provide any information that the Bank may reasonably request and will permit the Bank or the Bank’s agents to inspect and copy its books, records, data and the Collateral at any time during normal business hours;

 

12. The Bank shall have the right now, and at any time in the future in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice to the Debtor, to (a) prepare, file and sign the Debtor’s name on any proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any owner of the Collateral and (b) prepare, file and sign the Debtor’s name on any financing statement, notice of lien, assignment or satisfaction of lien or similar document in connection with the Collateral. The Debtor hereby authorizes the Bank to file financing statements covering Collateral or such lesser amount of assets as the Bank may determine, or the Bank may, at its option, file financing statements or similar records containing any collateral description which reasonably describes the Collateral in which a security interest is granted under this agreement;

 

13. Immediately upon the Debtor’s receipt of any Collateral evidenced by an agreement, “instrument,” “chattel paper,” certificated “security” or “document” (as such terms are defined in the UCC) (collectively, “Special Collateral”), the Debtor shall mark the Special Collateral to show that it is subject to the Bank’s security interest and shall deliver the original to the Bank together with appropriate endorsements and other specific evidence of assignment or transfer in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank;

 

3


14. The Debtor shall keep all tangible Collateral in good order and repair and shall not waste or destroy any of the Collateral, nor use any of the Collateral in violation of any applicable law or any policy of insurance thereon;

 

15. Except as may be otherwise disclosed in writing by the Debtor to the Bank, none of the Collateral is attached to real estate so as to constitute a “fixture” (as defined in the UCC) and none of the Collateral shall at any time hereafter be attached to real estate so as to constitute a fixture. If any of the Collateral is now or at any time hereafter becomes so attached to real estate so as to constitute a fixture, the Debtor shall, at any time upon the Bank’s request, furnish the Bank with a disclaimer of interest in the Collateral executed by each person or entity having an interest in such real estate.

Accounts; Chattel Paper; General Intangibles and Instruments. If the Collateral includes the Debtor’s “Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles and Instruments” and until the Bank gives notice to the Debtor to the contrary, the Debtor will, in the usual course of its business and at its own expense, on the Bank’s behalf but not as the Bank’s agent, demand and receive and use its best efforts to collect all moneys due or to become due with respect to the Collateral. So long as no default has occurred in any provision of this agreement, the Notes or any other Related Documents and is continuing beyond the applicable cure period set forth therein, Debtor may use the funds collected in its business. Upon the occurrence of a default in any provision of this agreement, the Notes or any other Related Documents beyond the applicable cure period set forth therein, and notice thereof from the Bank, the Debtor agrees that (1) all sums of money it receives on account of or in payment or settlement of the Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles and Instruments shall be held by it as trustee for the Bank without commingling with any of the Debtor’s other funds, and shall immediately be delivered to the Bank with endorsement to the Bank’s order of any check or similar instrument and (2) the Bank shall be entitled, in its own name or in the name of the Debtor or otherwise, but at the expense and cost of the Debtor, to collect, demand, receive, sue for or compromise any and all Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles, and Instruments, and to give good and sufficient releases, to endorse any checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money payable to the Debtor and, in the Bank’s discretion, to file any claims or take any action or proceeding which the Bank may deem necessary or advisable. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that the Bank shall not be required or obligated in any manner to make any demand or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it or to present or file any claim or take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Bank or to which the Bank may be entitled at any time or times. All notices required in this paragraph will be immediately effective when sent. Such notices need not be given prior to the Bank’s taking action. The Debtor appoints the Bank or the Bank’s designee as the Debtor’s attorney-in-fact, effective when an Event of Default exists, to do all things with reference to the Collateral as provided for in this section including without limitation (1) to notify the post office authorities to change the Debtor’s mailing address to one designated by the Bank, (2) to receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to the Debtor, (3) to sign the Debtor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Collateral, on assignments and verifications of account and on notices to the Debtor’s customers, and (4) to do all things necessary to carry out this agreement or to perform any of the obligations of the Debtor under this agreement. The Debtor ratifies and approves all acts of the Bank as attorney-in-fact. The Bank shall not be liable for any act or omission, nor any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law, but only for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until all of the Liabilities have been fully satisfied and shall survive the death or disability of the Debtor.

Pledge. If the Debtor is not liable for all or any part of the Liabilities, then the Debtor agrees that:

 

1. If any moneys become available from any source other than the Collateral that the Bank can apply to the Liabilities, the Bank may apply them in any manner it chooses, including but not limited to applying them against obligations, indebtedness or liabilities which are not secured by this agreement.

 

2. The Bank may take any action against the Debtor, the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities, or any other person or entity liable for any of the Liabilities.

 

3. The Bank may release the Debtor or anyone else from the Liabilities, either in whole or in part, or release the Collateral in whole or in part or any other collateral for the Liabilities, and need not perfect a security interest in the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities.

 

4. The Bank does not have to exercise any rights that it has against the Debtor or anyone else, or make any effort to realize on the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities, or exercise any right of setoff.

 

5. Without notice or demand and without affecting the Debtor’s obligations hereunder, from time to time, the Bank is authorized to: (a) renew, modify, compromise, rearrange, restate, consolidate, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the Liabilities or any part thereof, including increasing or decreasing the rate of interest thereon; (b) release, substitute or add any one or more sureties, endorsers, or guarantors; (c) take and hold other collateral for the payment of the Liabilities, and enforce, exchange, substitute, subordinate, impair, waive or release any such collateral; (d) proceed against the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities and direct the order or manner of sale as the Bank in its discretion may determine; and (e) apply any and all payments received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, or recoveries from the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities, in such order or manner as the Bank in its discretion may determine.

 

6. The Debtor’s obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished or affected by (a) any act or omission of the Bank, (b) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Debtor, or any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceedings affecting the Debtor or any of its assets or any other obligor on the Liabilities or that obligor’s assets, (c) any change in the composition or structure of the Debtor or any other obligor on the Liabilities, including a merger or consolidation with any other person or entity, or (d) any payments made upon the Liabilities.

 

4


7. The Debtor expressly consents to any impairment of any other collateral for the Liabilities, including, but not limited to, failure to perfect a security interest and release of any other collateral for the Liabilities and any such impairment or release shall not affect the Debtor’s obligations hereunder.

 

8. The Debtor waives and agrees not to enforce any rights of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it may have against the Debtor, any person or entity liable on the Liabilities, or the Collateral, until the Debtor and the Debtor have fully performed all their obligations to the Bank, even if those obligations are not covered by this agreement.

 

9. The Debtor waives (a) to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all rights and benefits under any laws or statutes regarding sureties, as may be amended, (b) any right the Debtor may have to receive notice of the following matters before the Bank enforces any of its rights: (i) the Bank’s acceptance of this agreement, (ii) incurrence or acquisition of any Liabilities, any credit that the Bank extends to the Debtor, (iii) the Debtor’s default, (iv) any demand, diligence, presentment, dishonor and protest, or (v) any action that the Bank takes regarding the Debtor, anyone else, any other collateral for the Liabilities, or any of the Liabilities, which it might be entitled to by law or under any other agreement, (c) any right it may have to require the Bank to proceed against the Debtor, any guarantor or other obligor on the Liabilities, the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities, or pursue any remedy in the Bank’s power to pursue, (d) any defense based on any claim that the Debtor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Debtor, (e) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Debtor’s obligations hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (f) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Debtor or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever (other than payment in full) of the obligation of the Debtor for the Liabilities, and (g) any defense based on or arising out of any defense that the Debtor may have to the payment or performance of the Liabilities or any portion thereof. The Bank may waive or delay enforcing any of its rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the specific terms and time period stated in the waiver.

 

10. The Debtor agrees that to the extent any payment or transfer is received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, and all or any part of such payment or transfer is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be transferred or repaid by the Bank or paid over to a trustee, receiver or any other person or entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or otherwise (any of those payments or transfers is hereinafter referred to as a “ Preferential Payment ”), then this agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, even if all Liabilities have been paid in full, and whether or not the Bank is in possession of this agreement or whether this agreement has been marked paid, cancelled, released or returned to the Debtor, and, to the extent of the payment or repayment or other transfer by the Bank, the Liabilities or part intended to be satisfied by the Preferential Payment shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if the Preferential Payment had not been made. If this agreement must be reinstated, the Debtor agrees to execute and deliver to the Bank any new security agreements and financing statements, if necessary or if requested by the Bank, in form and substance acceptable to the Bank, covering the Collateral.

 

11. The Debtor agrees to fully cooperate with the Bank and not to delay, impede or otherwise interfere with the efforts of the Bank to secure payment from the assets which secure the Liabilities including actions, proceedings, motions, orders, agreements or other matters relating to relief from automatic stay, abandonment of property, use of cash collateral and sale of the Bank’s collateral free and clear of all liens.

 

12. The Debtor has (a) without reliance on the Bank or any information received from the Bank and based upon the records and information the Debtor deems appropriate, made an independent investigation of the Debtor, the Debtor’s business, assets, operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise, and any circumstances that may bear upon those transactions, the Debtor or the obligations, liabilities and risks undertaken pursuant to this agreement; (b) adequate means to obtain from the Debtor on a continuing basis information concerning the Debtor and the Bank has no duty to provide any information concerning the Debtor or other obligor on the Liabilities to the Debtor; (c) full and complete access to the Debtor and any and all records relating to any Liabilities now or in the future owing by the Debtor; (d) not relied and will not rely upon any representations or warranties of the Debtor not embodied in this agreement or any acts taken by the Debtor prior to or after the execution or other authentication and delivery of this agreement (including but not limited to any review by the Debtor of the business, assets, operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise, of the Debtor); and (e) determined that the Debtor will receive benefit, directly or indirectly, and has or will receive fair and reasonably equivalent value, for the execution and delivery of this agreement and the rights provided to the Bank. By entering into this agreement, the Debtor does not intend: (i) to incur or believe that the Debtor will incur debts that would be beyond the Debtor’s ability to pay as those debts mature; or (ii) to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor of the Debtor. The Debtor is neither engaged in nor about to engage in any business or transaction for which the remaining assets of the Debtor are unreasonably small in relation to the business or transaction, and any property remaining with the Debtor after the execution or other authentication of this agreement is not unreasonably small capital.

Default; Remedies. If any of the Liabilities are not paid at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise, or if a default by anyone occurs under the terms of any agreement related to any of the Liabilities and such default is not cured within the applicable cure period set forth therein, then the Bank shall have the rights and remedies provided by law or this agreement, including but not limited to the right to require the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Bank at a place to be designated by the Bank which is reasonably convenient to both parties, the right to take possession of the Collateral with or without demand and with or without process of law, and the right to sell and dispose of it and distribute the proceeds according to law. Should a default occur, the Debtor will pay to the Bank all costs reasonably incurred by the Bank for the purpose of enforcing its rights hereunder, to the extent not prohibited by law, including, without limitation: costs of foreclosure; costs of obtaining money damages; and a reasonable fee for the services of internal and outside attorneys employed or engaged by the Bank or its affiliates for any purpose related to this agreement, including, without limitation, consultation, drafting documents, sending notices or instituting, prosecuting or defending litigation or

 

5


any proceeding. The Debtor agrees that upon taking possession of the Collateral as provided herein, the Bank may dispose of any of the Collateral in its then present condition, that the Bank has no duty to repair or clean the Collateral prior to sale, and that the disposal of the Collateral in its present condition or without repair or clean-up shall not affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or disposition. The Bank’s compliance with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with the disposition of the Collateral will not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Bank may disclaim warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment, and the like, and the Debtor agrees that any such action shall not affect the commercial reasonableness of the sale. In connection with the right of the Bank to take possession of the Collateral, the Bank may take possession of any other items of property in or on the Collateral at the time of taking possession, and hold them for the Debtor without liability on the part of the Bank. The Debtor expressly agrees that the Bank may enter upon the premises where the Collateral is believed to be located without any obligation of payment to the Debtor, and that the Bank may, without cost, use any and all of the Debtor’s “equipment” (as defined in the UCC) in the manufacturing or processing of any “inventory” (as defined in the UCC) or in growing, raising, cultivating, caring for, harvesting, loading and transporting of any of the Collateral that constitutes “farm products” (as defined in the UCC). If there is any statutory requirement for notice, that requirement shall be met if the Bank sends notice to the Debtor at least ten (10) days prior to the date of sale, disposition or other event giving rise to the required notice, and such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. The Debtor is liable for any deficiency remaining after disposition of the Collateral.

Miscellaneous.

 

1. Where the Collateral is located at, used in or attached to a facility leased by the Debtor, the Debtor will obtain from the lessor a consent to the granting of this security interest and a release or subordination of the lessor’s interest in any of the Collateral, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank.

 

2. At its option the Bank may, but shall be under no duty or obligation to, discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral, pay for insurance on the Collateral, and pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral, and the Debtor agrees to reimburse the Bank on demand for any payment made or expense incurred by the Bank, with interest at the highest rate at which interest may accrue under any of the instruments or documents evidencing the Liabilities.

 

3. No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right or remedy waives that right or remedy, no single or partial exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy precludes any other exercise of it or the exercise of any other right or remedy, and no waiver or indulgence by the Bank of any default is effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Bank, nor does a waiver on one occasion waive that right on any future occasion.

 

4. If any provision of this agreement is invalid, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of its invalidity, and the remaining provisions shall be valid and effective.

 

5. Except as provided in the Accounts; Chattel Paper; General Intangibles; and Instruments paragraph above, any notices and demands under or related to this document shall be in writing and delivered to the intended party at its address stated herein, and if to the Bank, at its main office if no other address of the Bank is specified herein, by one of the following means: (a) by hand, (b) by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (c) by certified mail, postage prepaid, with return receipt requested. Notice shall be deemed given: (a) upon receipt if delivered by hand, (b) on the Delivery Day after the day of deposit with a nationally recognized courier service, or (c) on the third Delivery Day after the notice is deposited in the mail. “Delivery Day” means a day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or any other day on which national banking associations are authorized to be closed. Any party may change its address for purposes of the receipt of notices and demands by giving notice of such change in the manner provided in this provision.

 

6. All rights of the Bank benefit the Bank’s successors and assigns; and all obligations of the Debtor bind the Debtor’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

 

7. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this agreement is sufficient as, and can be filed as, a financing statement. The Bank is irrevocably appointed the Debtor’s attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement on the Debtor’s behalf covering the Collateral. The Debtor authorizes the Bank to file one or more financing statements or similar records related to the security interests created by this agreement, and further authorizes the Bank, as secured party herein, instead of the Debtor, to sign such financing statements and other similar records.

 

8. Time is of the essence under this agreement and in the performance of every term, covenant and obligation contained herein.

Indemnification. The Debtor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Bank, its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, their respective successors and assigns and each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively the “Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, obligation, damage, penalty, judgment, claim, deficiency, expense, interest, penalties, attorneys’ fees (including the fees and expenses of attorneys engaged by the Indemnified Person at the Indemnified Person’s reasonable discretion) and amounts paid in settlement (“ Claims ”) to which any Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or relating to this agreement or the Collateral, except to the limited extent that the Claims are proximately caused by the Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The indemnification provided for in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this agreement and shall not be affected by the presence, absence or amount of or the payment or nonpayment of any claim under, any insurance.

Governing Law and Venue. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington (without giving effect to its laws of conflicts), and to the extent applicable, federal law, except to the extent that the laws regarding the perfection and priority of security interests of the state(s) in which either the Debtor or any property securing the

 

6


Liabilities is located, are applicable. The Debtor agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to any of its obligations under this agreement may be brought by the Bank in any state or federal court located in the State of Washington, as the Bank in its sole discretion may elect. By the execution and delivery of this agreement, the Debtor submits to and accepts, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. The Debtor waives any claim that the State of Washington is not a convenient forum or the proper venue for any such suit, action or proceeding.

Additional Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Debtor represents, warrants and covenants to the Bank that each of the following is true and will remain true until termination of this agreement and payment in full of all Liabilities: (a) the execution and delivery of this agreement and the performance of the obligations it imposes do not violate any law, do not conflict with any agreement by which it is bound, and do not require the consent or approval of any governmental authority or any third party; (b) this agreement is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable according to its terms; and (c) all balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and other financial statements furnished to the Bank in connection with the Liabilities are accurate and fairly reflect the financial condition of the organizations and persons to which they apply on their effective dates, including contingent liabilities of every type, which financial condition has not changed materially and adversely since those dates. The Debtor, other than a natural person, further represents that: (a) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state where it is organized and in good standing in each state where it is doing business; and (b) the execution and delivery of this agreement and the performance of the obligations it imposes (i) are within its powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary action of its governing body; and (ii) do not contravene the terms of its articles of incorporation or organization, its by-laws, or any agreement or document governing its affairs.

WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES. THE DEBTOR WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT THE UNDERSIGNED MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM THE BANK IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

JURY WAIVER. THE DEBTOR AND THE BANK (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN OR AMONG THE DEBTOR AND THE BANK ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE BANK TO PROVIDE THE FINANCING DESCRIBED HEREIN.

“Adjusted LIBOR Rate” means, with respect to a LIBOR Rate Advance for the relevant Interest Period, the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin plus (ii) the quotient of (a) the LIBOR Rate applicable to such Interest Period, divided by (b) one minus the Reserve Requirement (expressed as a decimal) applicable to such Interest Period.

Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate ” means, with respect to a CB Floating Rate Advance for any day, the sum of (i) 2.50% per annum plus (ii) the quotient of (a) the interest rate determined by the Bank by reference to the Page to be the rate at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time, on such date or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day for dollar deposits with a maturity equal to one (1) month, divided by (b) one minus the Reserve Requirement (expressed as a decimal) applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market with a maturity equal to one (1) month.

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day, provided, however, that if said next succeeding Business Day falls in a new calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day.

“LIBOR Rate” means with respect to any LIBOR Rate Advance for any Interest Period, the interest rate determined by the Bank by reference to Reuters Screen LIBOR01, formerly known as Page 3750 of the Moneyline Telerate Service (together with any successor or substitute, the “ Service ”) or any successor or substitute page of the Service, providing rate quotations comparable to those currently

If no LIBOR Rate is available to the Bank, the applicable LIBOR Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall instead be the rate determined by the Bank to be the rate at which the Bank offers to place U.S. dollar deposits having a maturity equal to such Interest Period with first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period.

The Borrower shall pay interest to the Bank on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of each CB Floating Rate Advance at the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin and each LIBOR Rate Advance at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. In no event shall the interest rate applicable to any Advance exceed the maximum rate allowed by law.

Conversion and Renewals. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert one type of Advance into another or to renew any Advance by giving the Bank written notice no later than 2:00 p.m. Mountain time, on the date of the conversion into or renewal of a CB Floating Rate Advance and 11:00 a.m. Mountain time three (3) Business Days before conversion into or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Advance, specifying: (a) the renewal or conversion date, (b) the amount of the Advance to be converted or renewed, (c) in the case of conversion, the type of Advance to be converted into (CB Floating Rate Advance or LIBOR Rate Advance), and (d) in the case of renewals of or conversion into a LIBOR Rate Advance, the applicable Interest Period, provided that (i) the minimum principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Advance outstanding after a renewal or conversion shall be One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00); (ii) a LIBOR Rate Advance can only be converted on the last day of the Interest Period for the Advance; and (iii) the Borrower may not elect an Interest Period ending after the maturity date of this Note.

Interest Payments. Interest on the Advances shall be paid on the last day of each month, beginning with the first month following disbursement of the Advance, whether the Advance is a CB Floating Rate Advance or LIBOR Rate Advance.

Principal Payments. All outstanding principal and interest is due and payable in full on December 5, 2017, which is defined herein as the “Principal Payment Date”.

Default Rate of Interest. After a default has occurred under this Note, whether or not the Bank elects to accelerate the maturity of this Note because of such default, all Advances outstanding under this Note, shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the interest rate being charged on each such Advance plus three percent (3.00%) from the date the Bank elects to impose such rate. Imposition of this rate shall not affect any limitations contained in this Note on the Borrower’s right to repay principal on any LIBOR Rate Advance before the expiration of the Interest Period for each such Advance.

Additional Costs. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall (a) affect the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Note or the other Related Documents (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of the jurisdiction in which the Bank has its principal office), or (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance premiums or assessments) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Bank, or (c) impose any other condition with respect to this Note or the other Related Documents and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of extending, maintaining or funding any LIBOR Rate Advance or to reduce the amount of any sum receivable by the Bank on any Advance, or (d) affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by the Bank (or any corporation controlling the Bank) and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of the Bank’s obligations under this Note or the other Related Documents and the increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank’s (or its controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of the obligations under this Note or the other Related Documents to a level below that which the Bank (or its controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, upon request by the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased cost or reduced sum receivable. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error in computation.

Illegality. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or fund the LIBOR Rate Advances, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Rate Advances, together with accrued interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the other Related Documents on account of the LIBOR Rate Advances shall be repaid (a) immediately upon the Bank’s demand if such change or compliance with such requests, in the Bank’s judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request provided , however , that subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the other Related Documents the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any LIBOR Rate Advance repaid in accordance with this section with a CB Floating Rate Advance in the same amount.

Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If the Bank determines that (a) quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate are not being provided for purposes of determining the interest rate on a LIBOR Rate Advance as provided in this Note, or (b) the relevant interest rates referred to in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate do not accurately cover the cost to the Bank of making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Rate Advances, then the Bank shall at the Bank’s option, give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i) the obligation of the Bank to make LIBOR Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension no longer exists, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Advance, together with accrued interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the LIBOR Rate Advance, provided , however , that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the other Related Documents, the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any LIBOR Rate Advance repaid in accordance with this section with an Advance bearing interest at the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin for CB Floating Rate Advances in the same amount. If the Bank determines on any day that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate are not being provided for purposes of determining the interest rate on any CB Floating Rate Advance on any day, then each CB Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin for CB Floating Rate Advances until the Bank determines that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate are being provided.

Obligations Due on Non-Business Day. Whenever any payment under this Note becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, if no default then exists under this Note, the maturity of the payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, except, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Advance, if the result of the extension would be to extend the payment into another calendar month, the payment must be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Matters Regarding Payment. The Borrower will pay the Bank at the Bank’s address shown above or at such other place as the Bank may designate. Payments shall be allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of the Bank unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law. Acceptance by the Bank of any payment which is less than the payment due at the time shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank’s right to receive payment in full at that time or any other time.

Authorization for Direct Payments (ACH Debits). To effectuate any payment due under this Note or under any other Credit Documents, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to initiate debit entries to an ordinary checking account maintained by the Borrower with the Bank designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Bank from time to time (the “ Borrower Account ”) and to debit the same to the Borrower Account. This authorization to initiate debit entries shall remain in full force and effect until the Bank has received written notification of its termination in such time and in such manner as to afford the Bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it. The Borrower represents that the Borrower is and will be the owner of all funds in the Borrower Account. The Borrower acknowledges: (1) that such debit entries may cause an overdraft of the Borrower Account which may result in the Bank’s refusal to honor items drawn on such account until adequate deposits are made to the Borrower Account; (2) that the Bank is under no duty or obligation to initiate any debit entry for any purpose; and (3) that if a debit is not made because the Borrower Account does not have a sufficient available balance, or otherwise, the payment may be late or past due.

Late Fee . Any principal or interest which is not paid within 10 days after its due date (whether as stated, by acceleration or otherwise) shall be subject to a late payment charge of five percent (5.00%) of the total payment due, in addition to the payment of interest, up to the maximum amount of One Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($1,500.00) per late charge. The Borrower agrees to pay and stipulates that five percent (5.00%) of the total payment due is a reasonable amount for a late payment charge. The Borrower shall pay the late payment charge upon demand by the Bank or, if billed, within the time specified.

Purpose of Loan. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Note evidences a loan for a business, commercial, agricultural or similar commercial enterprise purpose, and that no advance shall be used for any personal, family or household purpose. The proceeds of the loan shall be used only for the Borrower’s working capital purposes.

Credit Facility. The Bank has approved a credit facility to the Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The credit facility is in the form of advances made from time to time by the Bank to the Borrower. This Note evidences the Borrower’s obligation to repay those advances. The aggregate principal amount of debt evidenced by this Note is the amount reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank. Until the earliest to occur of maturity, any default, event of default, or any event that would constitute a default or event of default but for the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both, the Borrower may borrow, pay down and reborrow under this Note subject to the terms of the Related Documents.

The terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated and made a part hereof by this reference thereto with the same force and effect as if set forth at length herein.
