Fourth Amendment to Loan Documents

THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN DOCUMENTS  (this “Amendment”)  is  made 
effective as of  March 31, 2013, by and between BOVIE MEDICAL CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION(the
“Bank”).

BACKGROUND

A.           The Borrower  has executed and  delivered to  the Bank (or a
predecessor which is now known by  the Bank’s name  as set forth above), one or
more promissory notes, letter agreements, loan agreements, security agreements,
mortgages, pledge agreements, collateral assignments, and other agreements,
instruments, certificates and documents, some or all of which are more fully
described on attached Exhibit A, which is made a part of this Amendment
(collectively as amended from time to time, the “Loan Documents”) which evidence
or secure some or all of the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank for one or more
loans or other extensions of credit (the “Obligations”).

B.           The Borrower and the Bank desire to amend the Loan Documents as
provided for in this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and
intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.           Certain of  the Loan Documents are amended as  set forth in 
Exhibit A.   Any and all references to any Loan Document in any other Loan
Document shall be deemed to refer to such Loan Document as amended by this
Amendment.  This Amendment is deemed incorporated into each of the Loan
Documents. Any initially capitalized terms used in this Amendment without
definition shall have the meanings assigned to those terms in the Loan
Documents.  To the extent that any term or provision of this Amendment is or may
be inconsistent with any term or provision in any Loan Document, the terms and
provisions of this Amendment shall control.

2.           The Borrower hereby certifies that:  (a) all of  its
representations and warranties in the Loan Documents,  as amended by this
Amendment, are, except as may otherwise be stated in this Amendment: (i) true
and correct as of the date of this Amendment, (ii) ratified and confirmed
without condition as if made anew, and (iii) incorporated into this Amendment by
reference, (b) no Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time or
the giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default, exists under
any Loan Document which will not be cured by the execution and effectiveness of
this Amendment, (c) no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration or filing with, any third party is required in connection with the
execution, delivery and carrying out of this Amendment or, if required, has been
obtained, and (d) this Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered so that it constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms.  The Borrower confirms that
the Obligations remain outstanding without defense, set off, counterclaim,
discount or charge of any kind as of the date of this Amendment.

3.           The Borrower hereby confirms that any collateral for the
Obligations, including liens, security interests, mortgages, and pledges granted
by the Borrower or third parties (if applicable), shall continue unimpaired and
in full force and effect, and shall cover and secure all of the Borrower’s
existing and future Obligations to the Bank, as modified by this Amendment.

4.           As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment,
the Borrower shall comply with the terms and conditions (if any) specified in
Exhibit A.

{26132030;2}  
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
5.           To induce the Bank to enter into this Amendment, the Borrower
waives and releases and forever discharges the Bank and its officers, directors,
attorneys, agents, and employees from any liability, damage, claim, loss or
expense of any kind that it may have against the Bank or any of them arising out
of or relating to the Obligations.  The Borrower further agrees to indemnify and
hold the Bank and its officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees
harmless from any loss, damage, judgment, liability or expense (including
attorneys’ fees) suffered by or rendered against the Bank or any of them on
account of any claims arising out of or relating to the Obligations.  The
Borrower further states that it has carefully read the foregoing release and
indemnity, knows the contents thereof and grants the same as its own free act
and deed.

6.           This  Amendment  may  be signed  in  any  number  of  counterpart 
copies and  by  the parties to  this Amendment on separate counterparts,  but
all  such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument.   Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by facsimile
transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart.  Any party so executing this Amendment by facsimile transmission
shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any
failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by
facsimile transmission.

7.           The Bank may modify this Amendment for the purposes of completing
missing content or correcting erroneous content, without the need for a written
amendment, provided that the Bank shall send a copy of any such modification to
the Borrower (which notice may be given by electronic mail).

8.           This Amendment will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Borrower and the Bank and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

9.           This Amendment has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and
will be deemed to be made in the State where the Bank’s office indicated in the
Loan Documents is located.  This Amendment will be interpreted and the rights
and liabilities of the parties hereto determined in accordance with the laws of
the State where the Bank’s office indicated in the Loan Documents is located,
excluding its conflict of laws rules.

10.           Except as amended hereby, the terms and provisions of the Loan
Documents remain unchanged, are and shall remain in full force and effect unless
and until modified or amended in writing in accordance with their terms, and are
hereby ratified and confirmed.  Except as expressly provided herein, this
Amendment shall not constitute an amendment, waiver, consent or release with
respect to any provision of any Loan Document, a waiver of any default or Event
of Default under any Loan Document, or a waiver or release of any of the Bank’s
rights and remedies (all of which are hereby reserved).  The Borrower expressly
ratifies and confirms the confession of judgment (if applicable) and waiver of
jury trial provisions contained in the Loan Documents.

WITNESS the due execution of this Amendment this 18th day of April, 2013, and
made effective as of the date first written above.
