EX-10.78th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 8th
2.2 USE OF PROCEEDS; THE LOAN. (a) USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used solely for the acquisition of Eligible Equipment and the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. (b) THE LOAN. The Loan shall be repayable in consecutive monthly installments in accordance with the terms of SECTION 2.4. Agent may, and is hereby authorized by Borrower to, endorse in its books and records appropriate notations regarding Lenders' interest in the Loan; provided, however, that the failure to make, or an error in making, any such notation shall not limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder. (c) NOTES. The obligation of Borrower to repay the Loan made by the Lenders, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes in favor of each Lender in the amount of each such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Loan, in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT I ("Notes"). 2.3 PROCEDURE FOR MAKING LOAN. (a) NOTICE. Whenever Borrower desires that Lenders make the Loan, Borrower shall so notify Agent in writing (or by telephone with prompt confirmation in writing) at least seven (7) Business Days in advance of the desired Funding Date, which notice shall be irrevocable and shall be in substantially the form of EXHIBIT F ("Borrowing Request"). Within one (1) business day following receipt of the Borrowing Request as provided in this SECTION 2.3, Agent shall notify each Lender by telephone or facsimile of the principal amount (including such Lender's Commitment Percentage thereof) and Funding Date of the Loan being requested by Borrower. Borrower's request for a Loan shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and that the representations and warranties set forth in SECTION 5 are true and correct as of the time of such notice as if made at such time. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable prior to 11:00 am PST on the Funding Date specified in the Borrowing Request, each Lender shall transfer an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage multiplied by the amount of the Loan to an account specified by Agent in immediately available funds. Agent shall advance such funds on the Funding Date to the account of Borrower, all as specified in the Borrowing Request. Each Lender's obligation to make its Commitment Percentage of the Loan shall be expressly subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in SECTIONS 3.1 and 3.2. Agent shall have the right, exercisable at any time, to request that Borrower furnish Agent and Lenders with such additional information with respect to the Loan and the Eligible Equipment as Agent shall reasonably request. (b) LOAN INTEREST RATE. Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the Loan Commencement Date until such Loan has been paid in full, at a per annum rate of interest equal to the Interest Rate. The Interest Rate applicable to each Loan shall be fixed for the Repayment Period and shall not be subject to change in the absence of a manifest error. All computations of interest on each Loan shall be based on a year of 360 days (assuming 30 days in each month). Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall not in any event exceed the maximum amount permitted by the law applicable to interest charged on commercial loans. (c) LOAN FACTOR AND STIPULATED LOAN VALUE CALCULATION. On the Loan Commencement Date, Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall establish the Loan Factor and a schedule of Stipulated Loan Values with respect to the Loan. The Loan Factor shall be calculated in a manner to fully amortize the Loan over the Repayment Period applicable to such Loan in equal periodic installments of principal and interest, taking into account the Final Payment. The Loan Factor and schedule of Stipulated Loan Values applicable to the Loan shall be set forth in the Loan Agreement Supplement prepared by Agent with respect to the Loan and shall be conclusive in the absence of a manifest error. (d) DISBURSEMENT. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in SECTIONS 3.1 and 3.2 Lenders shall disburse the Loan in accordance with SECTION 2.3(a). (e) TERMINATION OF COMMITMENT TO LEND. Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents, each Lender's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of such Lender's Commitment Percentage to Borrower 8
EX-10.79th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of (i) at Requisite Lenders' election, the occurrence and continuance of any Default or Event of Default hereunder, and (ii) the Commitment Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Commitment to Borrower shall terminate if, in the sole judgment of four of the five Lenders (counting Venture Lending & Leasing, Inc. and Venture Lending & Leasing II, Inc., as a single lender), there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the business plan of Borrower presented to and not disapproved by four of the five Lenders (counting Venture Lending & Leasing, Inc. and Venture Lending & Leasing II, Inc., as a single lender), since the date of this Agreement. 2.4 AMORTIZATION OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; INTERIM PAYMENT; FINAL PAYMENT. (a) PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS ON PAYMENT DATES. Borrower shall make payments of principal and accrued interest in advance for the Loan (collectively, "Scheduled Payments"), commencing on the Loan Commencement Date (or commencing on the Funding Date if the Funding Date is the first Business Day of the month) with respect to the Loan and continuing thereafter during the Repayment Period on the first Business Day of each calendar month (each a "Payment Date"), in an amount equal to the Loan Factor multiplied by the Loan Amount for the Loan as of such Payment Date. In any event, all unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in full on the last Payment Date with respect to the Loan. (b) INTERIM PAYMENT. In addition to the Scheduled Payments, on the Loan Commencement Date for the Loan (unless the Funding Date is the first Business Day of the month) Borrower shall pay to Lenders an amount (the "Interim Payment") equal to the initial Loan Amount multiplied by the product of (i) the Interest Rate applicable to the Loan (expressed as a decimal) divided by three hundred and sixty (360), and (ii) the number of days from the Funding Date of the Loan until the first Payment Date with respect to the Loan. (c) FINAL PAYMENT. Unless the Loan is prepaid in full, on the Maturity Date Borrower shall pay, in addition to the unpaid principal and accrued interest and all other amounts due on such date with respect to the Loan, an amount equal to the Final Payment. 2.5 FEES.

(b) MANDATORY PREPAYMENT UPON AN ACCELERATION.

EX-10.710th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
(a) PLACE AND MANNER. Borrower shall make all payments due to Agent or Lenders by making payments to the Lockbox Account at the address specified in SECTION 12 hereof, in lawful money of the United States and in same day or immediately available funds. (b) DATE. Whenever any payment due hereunder shall fall due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be. (c) DEFAULT RATE. If either (i) any amounts required to be paid by Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including principal, interest, the Final Payment payable with respect to any Loan, and any fees or other amounts) remain unpaid after such amounts are due, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall pay interest on the aggregate, outstanding balance hereunder from the date due or from the date of the Event of Default, as applicable, until such past due amounts are paid in full or until all Events of Defaults are cured, as applicable, at a per annum rate equal to the Default Rate. All computations of such interest shall be based on a year of 360 days for actual days elapsed. 2.8 CREDITING PAYMENTS. The receipt by Agent of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied conditionally to reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such wire transfer is of immediately available federal funds and is made to the appropriate Lockbox Account of Agent 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 Agent after 1:00 p.m. California time shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. 2.9 DISTRIBUTION OF PAYMENTS. Agent shall immediately distribute from the Lockbox Account or from the proceeds of Collateral under SECTION 9.7, as the case may be, to each Lender, at such address or account as each Lender shall designate, its Commitment Percentage of all repayments and prepayments of principal and all payments of interest, fees, expenses and costs received by Agent on the day after and in the same type of funds as payment was received provided, however, that each Lender agrees, severally but not jointly, to pay Agent an agent's fee ("Agent's Fee") equal to 0.25% of the amount of each payment made by or on behalf of, or collected from, Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation each Scheduled Payment, but excluding the Final Payment. Agent may withhold the Agent's Fee from the amounts distributed to each Lender pursuant to this SECTION 2.9. 2.10 AGENT'S RIGHT TO ASSUME FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR THE LOAN. Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Lender no later than the business day prior to the Funding Date of the Loan that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent immediately available funds equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the total principal amount of the Loan, Agent may assume that such Lender has made its Commitment Percentage of the Loan to Agent on the date of the Loan and Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount of the Loan. If Agent has made funds available to Borrower based on such assumption and such Commitment Percentage of the Loan is not in fact made to Agent by such Lender, Agent shall be entitled to recover the corresponding amount of the Loan on demand from such Lender. If such Lender (the "Defaulting Lender") does not promptly pay such corresponding amount upon Agent's demand, Agent shall (a) to the extent that there is availability under the Total Commitment of the Lenders other than the Defaulting Lender, notify such Lenders and each such Lender severally shall make immediately available funds available to Agent at the account designated by Agent in writing in an amount equal to the lesser of such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such corresponding amount and such Lender's remaining Commitment, which amounts advanced shall be deemed to be a Loan under this Agreement; provided, that for purposes of this Section, the Commitment Percentage of each Lender shall be calculated without regard to the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender; provided further, that nothing herein shall be deemed to increase the Commitment of any Lender; and (b) to the extent that (i) there is no further availability under the Commitments or (ii) Agent is not promptly reimbursed under SECTION 2.10(a), Agent shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall repay such amount of the Loan to Agent. Agent also shall be entitled to recover from the Defaulting Lender interest on the amount of the Loan in respect of each day from the date the amount of the Loan was made by Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Agent at the Federal Funds Rate. Nothing in this SECTION 2.10 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its 10
EX-10.711th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Agent, any other Lender or Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement. 2.11 AGENT'S RIGHT TO ASSUME PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE BY BORROWER. Unless Agent shall have been notified by Borrower prior to the date on which any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is due that Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, Agent may, in its discretion, assume that Borrower has remitted such payment when so due and Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such assumed payment. If Borrower has not in fact remitted such payment to Agent, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each date from and including the date such amount was made available by Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate. 2.12 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Commitment Percentage of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith (a) notify Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's Commitment Percentage (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this SECTION 2.12 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this SECTION 2.12 and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. 2.13 TERM. This Agreement shall become effective upon acceptance by Agent and Lenders and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent, on behalf of Lenders, or Requisite Lenders shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 3.

CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST 12
EX-10.713th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 13th
4.1 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower grants to Agent on behalf and for the benefit of Lenders, a valid, first priority, continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter acquired or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt, full and complete payment of any and all Obligations and in order to secure prompt, full and complete performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under each of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and Lenders agree to release their security interest in any vehicles (including forklifts, pallet jacks and similar warehouse vehicles) subject to leases. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted herein shall not extend to and the term "Collateral" shall not include (a) any vehicles (including forklifts, pallet jacks and similar warehouse vehicles) subject to leases where the Borrower is the Lessee and (b) any licenses to the extent the granting of a security interest therein (i) would be contrary to applicable law or (ii) is prohibited by or would constitute a default under any agreement or document governing such licenses (but only to the extent such prohibition is enforceable under applicable law). 4.2 DURATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Agent's security interest in the Collateral shall continue until the payment in full and the satisfaction of all Obligations, whereupon such security interest shall terminate; provided, however, if any item of Collateral is subject to an Event of Loss, then following the prepayment of the Loan with respect to such item pursuant to SECTION 2.6, Agent shall release its security interest in such item of Collateral. Agent shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, execute such further documents and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect the release contemplated by this SECTION 4.2, including duly executing and delivering termination statements for filing in all relevant jurisdictions under the Code. 4.3 POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL.

At Agent's request at any time during the Term of the Loan (including any extension thereof), Borrower shall place in a conspicuous location on each item of Financed Equipment a plaque or other marking to be supplied by Agent which reads substantially as follows: Lighthouse Capital Partners II, L.P., as agent on behalf and for the benefit of a group of lenders has a first priority security interest in this item of equipment. Such plaque or other marking shall not be removed (or if removed or damaged such plaque or other marking shall be replaced) until the security interest in favor of Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of Lenders, in such item of Collateral is terminated pursuant to this Agreement. 4.5 DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED. Borrower shall from time to time execute and deliver to Agent, all financing statements and other documents Agent may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Agent, to perfect and continue Agent's perfected security interests in the Collateral and in order to consummate fully all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. 4.6 RIGHT TO INSPECT.

The amount of the "all risk" insurance shall be the greater of (i) the replacement value of the Collateral (as new) or (ii) the Stipulated Loan Value of the Loan Amount applicable to the Loan and all other then outstanding amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Such amounts shall be determined to Agent and Requisite Lenders' reasonable satisfaction as of each anniversary date of this Agreement and the appropriate amount of coverage shall be put in effect on the next succeeding renewal or inception date of such insurance. 16

The amount of such commercial general public liability insurance (other than products liability coverage and completed operations insurance) shall be at least $5,000,000 per occurrence. The amount of such products liability and completed operations insurance shall be at least $5,000,000 per occurrence. The deductible with respect to the "all-risk" and product liability insurance shall not exceed $25,000; otherwise there shall be no deductible with respect to any insurance required to be maintained hereunder without the prior written approval of Agent and Requisite Lenders. Such "all risk" insurance shall: (a) name Agent, on behalf of Lenders, as sole loss payee with respect to the Collateral, (b) provide each insurer's waiver of its right of subrogation against Agent, on behalf of Lenders, and Borrower, and (c) provide that such insurance (i) shall not be invalidated by any action of, or breach of warranty by, Borrower of a provision of any of its insurance policies, and (ii) shall waive set-off, counterclaim or offset against Agent, on behalf of Lenders. Each liability policy shall (A) name Agent, on behalf of Lenders, as an additional insured and (B) provide that such insurance shall have cross-liability and severability of interest endorsements (which shall not increase the aggregate policy limits of Borrower's insurance). All insurance policies (C) shall provide that Borrower's insurance shall be primary without a right of contribution of Agent's insurance, if any, or any obligation on the part of Agent to pay premiums of Borrower, and (D) shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give Agent, on behalf of Lenders, at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of its cancellation (other than cancellation for non-payment for which ten (10) days notice shall be sufficient). Borrower shall, on or prior to the date of and prior to each policy renewal, furnish to Agent certificates of insurance or other evidence satisfactory to Agent that such insurance coverage is in effect. 6.10 LOSS; DAMAGE; DESTRUCTION AND SEIZURE. (a) Borrower shall bear the risk of the Collateral being lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond repair, rendered permanently unfit for use, or seized by a governmental authority for any reason whatsoever at any time until the expiration or termination of the Term. (b) If during the Term any item of Financed Equipment is lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond repair, rendered permanently unfit for use, or seized by a governmental authority for any reason whatsoever for a period equal to at least the remainder of the Term (an "Event of Loss"), then in each case Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall receive from the proceeds of insurance maintained pursuant to SECTION 6.9, from any award paid by the seizing governmental authority or, to the extent not received from the proceeds of insurance or award or both, from Borrower, on or before the Payment Date next succeeding such Event of Loss, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all accrued and unpaid Scheduled Payments with respect to such Loan due prior to the next such Payment Date, (ii) a prepayment in an amount equal to the Stipulated Loan Value with respect to such Loan multiplied by the Prepayment Amount of each affected item of Financed Equipment, and (iii) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to such Loan, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. On the date of receipt by Agent of the amount specified above with respect to each such item of Financed Equipment subject to an Event of Loss, this Agreement shall terminate as to such Financed Equipment. Except as provided in SECTION 6.10(c), any proceeds of insurance maintained by Borrower pursuant to SECTION 6.9 and received by Borrower shall be paid to Agent promptly upon their receipt by Borrower.

All replacement parts and equipment acquired by Borrower in replacement of Collateral pursuant to this SECTION 6.10(c) shall immediately become part of the Collateral upon acquisition by Borrower.

AGENT'S AND LENDERS' RIGHTS AND REMEDIES 9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lenders or Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall have the rights, options, duties and remedies of a secured party as permitted by law and, in addition to and without limitation of the foregoing, Lenders may, at the election of Requisite Lenders, without notice of 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, including the Stipulated Loan Value of the Loan Amount of each Loan, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in SECTION 8.12 or 8.13 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Agent or any Lender); (b) Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make such payments and do such acts as Agent or Lenders consider necessary or reasonable to protect Agent's security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Agent, on behalf of Lenders, so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Agent in such a manner as Agent or any or all Lenders may designate. Borrower authorizes Agent 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 Requisite Lenders' 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 Agent, on behalf of Lenders, a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, for up to one hundred twenty (120) days in order to exercise any of Agent's or Lenders' rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise; (c) Without notice to Borrower, set off and apply to the Obligations any and all indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; 20

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower covenants that it will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take any benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law now or at any time hereafter in force, nor claim, take nor insist upon any benefit or advantage of or from any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisement of the Collateral or any part thereof prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made pursuant to any provision herein contained, or to the decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction; nor, after such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute now or hereafter made or enacted by any state or otherwise to redeem the Property so sold or any part thereof, and, to the full extent legally permitted, except as to rights expressly provided herein, hereby expressly waives for itself and on behalf of each and every Person, except decree or judgment creditors of Borrower acquiring any interest in or title to the Collateral or any part thereof subsequent to the date of this Agreement, all benefit and advantage of any such law or laws, and covenants that it will not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or otherwise hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted and delegated to Agent or any Lender, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such power, law or laws had been made or enacted. 9.3 EFFECT OF SALE. Any sale, whether under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the Property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against Borrower, its successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming the Property sold or any part thereof under, by or through Borrower, its successors or assigns. 9.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY IN RESPECT OF THE COLLATERAL. Borrower does hereby irrevocably appoint Agent, on behalf of Lenders, (which appointment is coupled with an interest) on the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, the true and lawful attorney in fact of Borrower with full power of substitution, for it and in its name: (a) to ask, demand, collect, receive, receipt for, sue for, compound and give acquittance for any and all rents, issues, profits, avails, distributions, income, payment draws and other sums in which a security interest is granted under SECTION 4 with full power to settle, adjust or compromise any claim thereunder as fully as if Agent were a Borrower itself, (b) to receive payment of and to endorse the name of Borrower to any items of Collateral (including checks, drafts and other orders for the payment of money) that come into Agent's possession or under Agent's control, (c) to make all demands, consents and waivers, or take any other action with respect to, the Collateral, (d) in Agent's discretion to file any claim or take any other action or proceedings, either in its own name or in the name of Borrower or otherwise, which Agent or Requisite Lenders may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of Agent, on behalf of Lenders, in and to the Collateral, or (e) to otherwise act with respect thereto as though Agent, on behalf of Lenders, were the outright owner of the Collateral. 21

Any amounts paid or deposited by Agent shall constitute Agent's 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 Agent shall not constitute an agreement by Agent to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Agent or any Lender of any Event of Default under this Agreement. 9.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Agent's and Lenders' rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Agent and Lenders shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Agent or Lenders of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Agent or Lenders shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. 9.7 APPLICATION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS. The proceeds and/or avails of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, at the time of or received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, after, the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder) shall be paid to and applied as follows: (a) First, to the payment of out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including all amounts expended to preserve the value of the Collateral, of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale and the exercise of any other rights or remedies, and of all proper fees, expenses, liability and advances, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys' fees, incurred or made hereunder by Agent or any Lender; (b) Second, to the payment to Lenders on a pro rata basis as contemplated by SECTION 2.12 of the amount then owing or unpaid on the Loan for Scheduled Payments, the Stipulated Loan Value of the Loan Amount, and all other Obligations with respect to the Loan, and in case such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due, owing or unpaid upon the Loan, then to the unpaid interest thereon, then to unpaid principal thereof, then to the Stipulated Loan Value of the Loan Amount with respect to the Loan, and then to the payment of other amounts then payable to Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents; and (c) Third, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to Borrower, its successors and assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 9.8 REINSTATEMENT OF RIGHTS. If Agent or Lenders shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then and in every such case (unless otherwise ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction), Agent and Lenders shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder with respect to the Property subject to the security interest created under this Agreement. 10. THE AGENT 10.1 APPOINTMENT, POWERS AND IMMUNITIES. (a) Each Lender hereby appoints Lighthouse as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to act hereunder and thereunder as Agent of such Lender. Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this SECTION 10. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as Agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower. 22
EX-10.723rd Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 23rd
(b) Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent shall have only those duties which are specified in this Agreement and it may perform such duties by or through its agents, representatives or employees. In performing its duties hereunder on behalf of Lenders, Agent shall exercise the same care which it would exercise in dealing with loans made for its own account, but it shall not be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of all or any of the Loan Documents, or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents furnished or delivered in connection herewith or therewith by Agent to any Lender or by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent or any Lender, or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loan. Agent shall not be responsible for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of any taxes, assessments, charges or any other charges or liens of any nature whatsoever upon the Collateral or otherwise for the maintenance of the Collateral, except in the event Agent enters into possession of a part or all of the Collateral, in which event Agent shall preserve the part in its possession. Unless the officers of Agent acting in their capacity as officers of Agent on Borrower's account have actual knowledge thereof or have been notified in writing thereof by Lenders, Agent shall not be required to ascertain or inquire as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith or therewith unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct. No provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on Agent to perform any act or to exercise any power in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on Agent to perform any act or exercise any right or power if such performance or exercise (i) would subject Agent to a tax in a jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or (ii) would require Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it presently is not so qualified. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders. Agent shall be entitled to refrain from exercising any power, discretion or authority vested in it under this Agreement unless and until it has obtained the written instructions of the Requisite Lenders. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon Agent in its individual capacity. 10.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR INSPECTION. Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the making of the Loan hereunder and has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility either initially or on a continuing basis to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information (other than information obtained under the provisions of this Agreement which Agent shall make available to each Lender upon request by such Lender) with respect thereto whether coming into its possession before the date hereof or any time or times thereafter and shall further have no responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of the information provided to Lenders. With respect to its participation in the Loan hereunder, Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" or any similar term shall unless the context clearly indicates otherwise include Agent in its individual capacity. Agent and each of its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower as if it were not Agent. 10.3 RELIANCE BY AGENT. (a) Agent may consult with counsel, and any opinion or legal advice of such counsel who are not employees of Agent or Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Documents in accordance therewith. Agent shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of the Collateral from any court of competent jurisdiction. 23
EX-10.724th Page of 56TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
(b) Agent may rely, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any resolution, statement, certificate, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond or other paper or document that it has no reason to believe to be other than genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties or, in the case of cables, telecopies and telexes, to have been sent by the proper party or parties. In the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. (c) Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers granted to Agent by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the request or direction of Lenders unless Agent shall have been provided by Lenders adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 10.4 DELEGATION OF DUTIES. Agent may execute any of the powers hereof and perform any duty hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact. Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such powers and duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Agent. 10.5 RIGHT TO INDEMNITY. Each of Lenders severally, but not jointly, agrees (a) to indemnify and hold Agent (and any Person acting on behalf of Agent) harmless from and against and (b) promptly on receipt by each Lender of Agent's statement, to reimburse Agent, according to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Loan Commitment, to the extent Agent shall not otherwise have been reimbursed by Borrower on account of and for, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel and other advisors) or disbursements of any kind of nature whatsoever with respect to Agent's performance of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Agent of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Such reimbursement shall not in any respect release Borrower from any liability or obligation. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. Agent's right to indemnification shall survive termination of this Agreement. 10.6 RESIGNATION AND APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR AGENT. Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower; provided, however, that the retiring Agent shall continue to serve until a successor Agent shall have been selected and approved pursuant to this SECTION 10.6. Upon any such notice, Agent shall have the right to appoint, subject to the consent of Requisite Lenders, a successor Agent; provided, however, that if such successor shall not be a signatory to this Agreement, such appointment shall be subject to the consent of Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. At any time other than during the existence of an Event of Default, in each case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior consent of Borrower. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, if Agent becomes insolvent or commits any act or omission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct of its duties as Agent hereunder, then the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to replace the Agent. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this SECTION 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. 10.7 CONFLICTS. Lighthouse and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, act as merchant banker in any transaction for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Borrower and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower, all as if Lighthouse were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders or to disclose to Lenders confidential information which Lighthouse may receive from Borrower in connection with such other activity or business. 24

10.8 NO OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER. Nothing contained in this SECTION 10 shall be deemed to impose upon Borrower any obligation in respect of the due and punctual performance by Agent of its obligations to Lenders under any provision of this Agreement, and Borrower shall have no liability to Agent or any Lender in respect of any failure by Agent or any Lender to perform any of their respective obligations to each other under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, where any provision of this Agreement relating to the payment of any amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents provides that such payments shall be made by Borrower to Agent for the account of Lenders, Borrower's obligations to Lenders in respect of such payments shall be deemed to be satisfied upon the making of such payments to Agent in the manner provided by this Agreement. 11.
