Item 1.01 |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Loan and Security Agreement
On June 20, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), Viveve Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) and Viveve, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Viveve”, collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers” and each, individually, a “Borrower”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Western Alliance Bank (the “Lender”), pursuant to which the Lender agreed to loan up to an aggregate of $10 million, to the Borrowers, payable in two tranches of $7.5 million (the “Tranche 1 Term Loan”) and $2.5 million (the “Tranche 2 Term Loan”, each of the Tranche 1 Term Loan and Tranche 2 Term Loan, individually, a “Term Loan” and collectively, the “Term Loans”). The funding conditions for both the Term Loans were satisfied as of the Closing Date, and therefore, both the Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $10 million were issued to Viveve on the Closing Date.
At closing, the proceeds from the Term Loans were used to repay the outstanding existing indebtedness to Pacific Western Bank, as successor in interest to Square 1 Bank, in the aggregate amount of approximately $4.5 million, and the balance is to be used for working capital purposes and to fund general business requirements. Interest under the Term Loans will accrue at a per annum rate equal to the Index Rate (i.e., the 30 day U.S. LIBOR rate reported in the Wall Street Journal) plus 6.96% determined on the funding date of each Term Loan, subject to adjustment if the Index Rate increases by more than 0.50% (a “Qualifying Increase”) and provided that, after the Qualifying Increase, the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding obligations under the loan at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the Index Rate plus 6.96%, determined as of the last day of each month, and (ii) 7.40%.
The Tranche 1 Term Loan, including all unpaid principal and accrued interest, is due to be repaid on or before January 1, 2020 (the “Tranche 1 Maturity Date”) and the Tranche 2 Term Loan, including all unpaid principal and accrued interest, is due to be paid 29 months following the first Amortization Date (as defined below) of the Tranche 2 Term Loan (the “Tranche 2 Maturity Date”). Interest shall be payable monthly beginning on the first day of the first month following the funding date through the Amortization Date (as defined below) of each Term Loan, upon which payments of principal, together with applicable interest, shall be payable. “Amortization Date” means (i) with respect to the Tranche 1 Term Loan, July 1, 2017, and (ii) with respect to the Tranche 2 Term Loan, the thirteenth Payment Date following the funding date of the Tranche 2 Term Loan. “Payment Date” means the first calendar date of each month.
Events of default which may cause repayment of the Loan to be accelerated include (1) non-payment of any obligation when due, (2) the failure to perform any obligation required under the Loan Agreement and to cure such default within a reasonable time frame, (3) the occurrence of a Material Adverse Event, as defined in the Loan Agreement, (4) the attachment or seizure of a material portion of the Borrowers’ assets if such attachment or seizure is not released, discharged or rescinded within 10 days, (5) if a Borrower becomes insolvent or starts an insolvency proceeding or if an insolvency proceeding is brought by a third party against a Borrower and such proceeding is not dismissed within 45 days, (6) if a Borrower defaults on or fails to perform any agreement (i) resulting in a right by a third party to accelerate indebtedness in an amount in excess of $50,000 or (ii) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, as defined in the Loan Agreement, (7) if a final, uninsured judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least $50,000 is rendered against a Borrower and remains unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of 10 days, (8) if any material misrepresentation or material misstatement existed in any warranty or representation set forth in the Loan Agreement or in any certificate delivered to the Lender pursuant to the Loan Agreement or to induce the Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement or any other loan document, or (9) if any guaranty of all or a portion of the Borrowers’ obligations ceases to be in full force and effect, or any guarantor fails to perform any material obligation under any guaranty, or if any of the above circumstances occur with respect to any guarantor.
The Loan Agreement creates a first priority security interest in favor of the Lender with respect to certain Collateral, as defined in the Loan Agreement.
Intellectual Property Security Agreements.
In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Lenders and the Borrowers also entered into an Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2016 pursuant to which a first priority security interest was created in all of the Borrowers’ intellectual property. The security interest granted pursuant to the Intellectual Property Security Agreements is in conjunction with the security interest granted to the Lender under the Loan Agreement and the rights and remedies of the Lender with respect to the security interest granted pursuant to the Intellectual Property Security Agreements are in addition to those set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Warrant.
As additional consideration for the Term Loans made to Viveve, the Company issued a 10-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to the Lender. The Warrant entitles the Lender and its assignee to purchase up to an aggregate of 100,402 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $4.98 per share. The Warrant includes a cashless exercise provision.
The above are brief descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Intellectual Property Security Agreements, and the Warrant and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of those documents, which are attached as exhibits to this Current Report.

Commencing on the Amortization Date for each Term Loan, and continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter, Borrower shall make equal monthly payments of principal, together with applicable interest, in arrears, as calculated by Bank (which calculations shall be deemed correct absent manifest error) based upon: (1) the amount of each Term Loan, (2) the effective rate of interest, as determined in Section 2.4(a), and (3) a repayment schedule equal to thirty (30) months.

(d) Permitted Prepayment of Term Loans . Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans advanced by Bank under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Term Loans at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to the Bank on the date of such prepayment an amount equal to the sum of (A) all outstanding principal of the Term Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B) the Final Payment, (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including Bank’s Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

2.4 Interest Rate, Payments, and Calculations.
(a) Interest Rate. Except as set forth in Section 2.4(b) below, each Term Loan shall bear interest, on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof, at a per annum rate equal to the Index Rate plus six and ninety-six hundredths of one percent (6.96%) determined on the Funding Date of each Term Loan; provided that such rate shall adjust if the Index Rate (as determined on the Funding Date of such Term Loan) increases by more than one half of one percentage point (0.50%) (a “Qualifying Increase”) and such adjustment shall occur on the first day of the month immediately following the Qualifying Increase; and provided further, that at all times after the Qualifying Increase, the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the Index Rate plus six and ninety-six hundredths of one percent (6.96%), determined as of the last day of each month, and (ii) seven and four tenths of one percent (7.40%).
(b) Late Fee; Default Rate . If any payment is not made within ten (10) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay Bank a late fee equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law, not in any case to be less than $25.00. All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default.
(c) Payments . Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the term hereof. Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic Payments against any of Borrower’s deposit accounts (including but not limited to the Designated Deposit Account), in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. All payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the end that Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable hereunder, regardless of source of payment.
(d) Computation . In the event the Index Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Index Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Index Rate. For the avoidance of doubt, after the Qualifying Increase, the applicable interest rate will reset monthly on the first day of each month in which such interest accrues. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
2.5 Crediting Payments . Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Bank may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Bank and cause new (as applicable) certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Bank or its transferee.

9.1 Rights and Remedies . Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:
(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.5, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
(c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable;
(d) Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower’s owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
(e) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank;
(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank’s benefit;
(g) Dispose of the Collateral by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate;
(h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.
9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s designated officers, or employees) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession; (c) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower’s policies of insurance; (f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; and (g) to file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral. The appointment of Bank as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions hereunder is terminated.
9.3 Accounts Collection . At any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.4 Bank Expenses . If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under a loan facility in Section 2.1 as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.6 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral . So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.
9.6 Remedies Cumulative . Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
9.7 Demand; Protest . Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

12. JUDICIAL REFERENCE PROVISION.
12.1 In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to proceed under this Judicial Reference Provision.
12.2 With the exception of the items specified in Section 12.3, below, any controversy, dispute or claim (each, a “ Claim ”) between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other document, instrument or agreement between the undersigned parties (collectively in this Section, the “ Loan Documents ”), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in accordance with the provisions of Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (as amended from time to time, “ CCP ”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim, including whether the Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the state or federal court in the county or district where the real property involved in the action, if any, is located or in the state or federal court in the county or district where venue is otherwise appropriate under applicable law (the “ Court ”).
12.3 The matters that shall not be subject to a reference are the following: (i) nonjudicial foreclosure of any security interests in real or personal property, (ii) exercise of self-help remedies (including, without limitation, set-off), (iii) appointment of a receiver and (iv) temporary, provisional or ancillary remedies (including, without limitation, writs of attachment, writs of possession, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions). This reference provision does not limit the right of any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or oppose from a court of competent jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or opposition to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this reference provision as provided herein.
12.4 The referee shall be a retired judge or justice selected by mutual written agreement of the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten (10) days of a written request to do so by any party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result if ex parte relief is not granted. Pursuant to CCP § 170.6, each party shall have one peremptory challenge to the referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative).
12.5 The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings. Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to change in the time periods specified herein for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try all issues of law or fact within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii) report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for decision.
12.6 The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s failure to provide requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery, depositions may be taken by either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be final and binding.
12.7 Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings, the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee, except for trial, shall be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so requests, a court reporter will be used at any hearing or proceeding conducted before the referee, and the referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall have the obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the court reporter at trial.
12.8 The referee shall be required to determine all issues in accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and rule on any motion which would be authorized in a court proceeding, including without limitation motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding which disposes of all claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP § 644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as if the action had been tried by the Court and any such decision will be final, binding and conclusive. The parties reserve the right to appeal from the final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this provision.
12.9 If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a retired judge or justice, in accordance with the California Arbitration Act §1280 through §1294.2 of the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding.
12.10 THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED UNDER THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SCHEDULE OF EXCEPTIONS
Permitted Indebtedness (Section 1.1)
The unpaid principal balance, interest and fees under the loan with Pacific Western Bank (as successor in interest by merger to Square 1 Bank) will be paid off after the Closing. The aggregate amount to be paid off under the loan would equal to $4,476,469.22 on an anticipated payoff date of June 20, 2016, which includes: (1) outstanding principal balance as of June 20, 2016 - $4,133,373.29; (2) calculated interest due as of June 20, 2016 - $12,362.59; (3) prepayment fee (2% of outstanding term loan balance) - $82,666.67; and (4) final payment fee (6.8% of aggregate Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 advances; and 3.5% of aggregate Tranche 3 advances) - $248,066.67.
Permitted Investments (Section 1.1)
Viveve B.V.’s cash balance is currently less than $10,000 (cash balance as of June 10, 2016 - $5,192.59). However, Viveve B.V.’s cash balance temporarily exceeded $10,000 in December 2015 (cash balance as of December 31, 2015 - $20,682.17), January 2016 (cash balance as of January 31, 2016 - $15,867.06), and February 2016 (cash balance as of February 29, 2016 - $11,044.00), which was mainly due to VAT recoverables for 2015 made by our local agent prior to the year-end closing.
Permitted Liens (Section 1.1)
Pacific Western Bank (as successor in interest by merger to Square 1 Bank) has a security interest in all of Viveve’s personal property including all of Vivive’s intellectual property and Parent’s interest in any capital stock or equity interest in Viveve, and all proceeds thereof, which will be terminated after the Closing.
Under the Air Commercial Real Estate Association Standard Industrial/Commercial Multi-Tenant Lease – Gross with the Castine Group dated Jan. 25, 2012, as amended by First Amendment to Lease dated Jan. 2015, Viveve as the lessee may not voluntarily or by operation of law mortgage or encumber all or any part of its interest in this lease or in the premises without the lessor’s prior written consent unless otherwise exempted under the lease agreement.
Grant Security Interest (Section 4.1)
Pacific Western Bank (as successor in interest by merger to Square 1 Bank) has a security interest in all of Viveve’s personal property including all of Vivive’s intellectual property and Parent’s interest in any capital stock or equity interest in Viveve, and all proceeds thereof, which will be terminated after the Closing.
Inbound Licenses (Section 5.6)
Viveve generates 100% of its revenue from the sale of its products, which incorporate certain components that are licensed under the agreements with Edward Knowlton, Solta Medical, and Stellartech Research Corporation.
Prior Names (Section 5.7)
Parent was named “PLC Systems Inc.” from May 1987 to September 2014. Viveve was named “TivaMed, Inc.” from September 2005 to October 2009.
Under Viveve’s agreement with Stellartech Research Corporation, the equipment manufactured for Viveve that have not been delivered are stored with Stellartech Research Corporation at 560 Cottonwood Drive, Milpitas, CA 95035.
Litigation (Section 5.8)
Denville & Dover Fund LLC – Claim
On April 12, 2016, Parent was served with a Notice of Commencement of Action, a Summons and a Complaint. The action was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, Index No. 951928/2016 and is titled “Denville and Dover Fund LLC , Plaintiff, against Viveve Medical, Inc. (f/k/a PLC Systems, Inc.), Defendant”. The complaint alleges that PLC Systems, Inc. (“PLC”), during the period from 2011 through 2013, sold securities to the Plaintiff, including a Common Stock Purchase Warrant, No. R-3B, for the purchase of 679,825 pre-Merger shares of PLC common stock (the “Warrant”). The Warrant expiration date was February 22, 2016. Plaintiff alleges that the Warrant was exercised on January 30, 2016 but that the Defendant has failed and refused to issue the common stock, as required by the terms of the Warrant. Plaintiff asks the Court to order the Defendant to issue the shares of common stock underlying the Warrant, pay compensatory damages in an amount no less than $400,000, pay liquidated damages in the amount of $10,732.46 accrued from February 4, 2016 through February 10, 2016 and liquidated damages of $3,066.42 per day from February 10, 2016 until judgement and for attorney’s fees and the costs and expenses of the legal action. On May 13, 2016, the company removed the action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The company believes the claim is meritless and intends to vigorously defend against such claim.
Annamaria Tamura - Claim by Former Employee Now Arbitration
On March 11, 2016, Viveve filed a Demand for Arbitration (the “Tamura Demand”) with the American Arbitration Association against Annamaria Tamura, a former employee, asserting common law and statutory negligence claims against the former employee arising from her alleged negligent performance of certain work duties. The demand seeks damages for lost profits, along with attorney's fees, interest, and costs. On April 7, 2016, the former employee served an arbitration answering statement and counterclaim request (the “Counterclaim”) to our demand. In the Counterclaim, the former employee alleges causes of action for, among other claims, retaliation, wrongful termination, disability-related discrimination, intentional misrepresentation, breach of contract and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The former employee has asked for recovery of general damages, special damages, statutory damages and penalties, damages for emotional distress, restitution and disgorgement, injunctive relief, punitive damages, costs and attorney’s fees. The amount of the damages was not specified in the Counterclaim.
Jonathan Parmer, M.D. – Claim
On January 31, 2016, Viveve received a letter from an attorney claiming to represent Jonathan Parmer, M.D., the original Chief Executive Officer of Viveve, asserting that (a) shares of Viveve’s common stock held by Dr. Parmer were diluted by the issuance of Viveve’s Series B Preferred Stock in April 2012 (the “Series B Financing”), (b) that such dilution caused a “failure of consideration” with respect to Dr. Parmer’s assignment to Viveve of Patent No. 8961511 (for a Vaginal Remodeling Device and Method) in 2006, and (c) as a result of such failure of consideration, Dr. Parmer had unilaterally rescinded, or was threatening to rescind, such assignment and one or more related patent application assignments.
The Series B Financing closed at or around the same time as Dr. Parmer and Viveve entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release which, among other things (i) contemplated that Dr. Parmer would be issued $150,000 of Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) contained a release of any claims arising out of any action Dr. Parmer might bring, or participate in, against Viveve, its directors or investors in connection with the Series B Financing.
In the January 31st letter, Dr. Parmer’s attorney proposed that the following consideration be paid to Dr. Parmer and others to settle the dispute: (1) 8% of Viveve’s current outstanding stock in exchange for 1.4 million shares of common shares of Viveve previously issued to Dr. Parmer and (2) $2,400,000 in cash to “buy out” other shares of stock owned by Dr. Parmer and certain other investors.
On February 29, 2016, Viveve’s attorney sent a letter to Dr. Parmer’s attorney in order to respond to the meritless assertions in the January 31st letter and to reject the proposal above. In emails sent by Dr. Parmer on March 22, 2016, he threatened to write to the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding certain disclosure issues involving Viveve and stated that ownership of the patent referenced above will eventually be determined by litigation.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Issue Date: June 20, 2016
To Purchase 100,402 Shares of Common Stock of
VIVEVE MEDICAL, INC.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT CERTIFIES that, for value received, Western Alliance Bank, an Arizona corporation and its assignee (the “ Holder ”), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the Issue Date (the “ Initial Exercise Date ”) and on or prior to the close of business on the earlier of the tenth anniversary of the Issue Date (the “ Termination Date ”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Viveve Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), up to an aggregate of 100,402 shares (the “ Warrant Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”) in accordance with Section 2 or Section 3 herein. The purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the “ Exercise Price ”) under this Warrant shall be $4.98 , subject to adjustment hereunder. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.
1. Authorization of Shares . The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
2. Exercise of Warrant . Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly executed, at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company). Upon payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder within five (5) business days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of Warrant Shares exercised pursuant to this Section 2 by the fifth business day after the date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise by written notice to the Company.
3. Cashless Exercise . Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date, by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“ VWAP ” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if any of the NASDAQ markets or exchanges is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the OTC Bulletin Board, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on the OTCQX, OTCQB or OTC Pink Marketplace maintained by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock on the first such facility (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company. “Trading Market” means any of the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted for trading on the date in question: the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange, the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQB, the OTCQX or the OTC Pink Marketplace (or any successors to any of the foregoing). “Trading Day” means a day on which the principal Trading Market is open for trading.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 3.
4. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise . If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip . No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses . Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue tax or other incidental expense in respect of 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 Holder.
7. Closing of Books . The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
8. Division and Combination.
(a) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the Holder’s and the denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. The Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.
(b) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 8.
(c) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the registration of this Warrant and any other new Warrants that may be issued upon the division or combination of this Warrant under this Section 8.
9. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise . This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment.
10. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant . The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
11. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
12. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares . The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then in each such case the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
13. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets . In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“ Other Property ”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, at the option of the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 13. For purposes of this Section 13, “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 13 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
14. No Impairment . The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through a 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 to be observed or performed under this Warrant by Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this Warrant against impairment.
15. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company . The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
16. Notice of Adjustment . Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.
17. Certificate as to Adjustments . Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Exercise Price.
18. Notice of Corporate Action . If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of such cases (but not in such cases if the rights of the holder or holders of Common Stock will not be materially affected thereby), the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least five (5) business days’ prior notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least five (5) business days’ prior notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 21(c).
19. Information .

20. Authorized Shares . The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
21. Miscellaneous .

SUNNYVALE, California – June 20, 2016 – Viveve Medical, Inc.
