the Loans, shall not exceed the maximum amount of the Credit Line and expiring
no later than 365 days after the date of issuance, unless extended in accordance
with the terms thereof. The Borrower’s obligations to the Bank under the Letters

on more than five (5) different dates;

 

  (b) Interest Periods commencing on the same date for LIBOR Rate Loans
comprising part of the same advance under this agreement shall be of the same

Loan LESS any principal amount repaid, provided, however, that no portion of the
outstanding principal amount of a LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as a LIBOR
Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

the maturing LIBOR Rate Loan shall automatically be continued as a Prime Rate
Loan.

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

2.3.4. Making of LIBOR Loan Elections. By delivering a borrowing request to the
Bank on or before 10:00 a.m. New York time on a Business Day, the Borrower may
from time to time irrevocably request, on not less than two nor more than five
Business Days’ notice, that a LIBOR Rate Loan be made in a minimum amount of
$500,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 with an Interest Period of one, two,
three or six months. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this
agreement, each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be made available to the Borrower no later
than 11:00 a.m. New York time on the first day of the applicable Interest Period
by deposit to the account of the Borrower as shall have been specified in its
borrowing request.

2.3.5. Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering a
continuation/conversion notice to the Bank on or before 10:00 a.m., New York
time, on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably elect,
on not less than two nor more than five Business Days’ notice, that all, or any
portion in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of
$250,000 of any Prime Rate Loan or of a LIBOR Rate Loan be converted on the last
day of an Interest Period into a LIBOR Rate Loan with a different Interest
Period, or continued on the last day of an Interest Period as a LIBOR Rate Loan
with a similar Interest Period, provided, however, that no portion of the
outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to, or
continued as, LIBOR Rate Loans when any Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, and no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any
LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to LIBOR Rate Loans of a different duration if
such LIBOR Rate Loans relate to any Hedging Obligations. If any Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing (if the Bank does not otherwise elect
to exercise any right to terminate the Credit Line and demand payment of the
Loans), or in the absence of delivery of a continuation/conversion notice with
respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan at least two Business Days before the last day of
the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, each maturing LIBOR Rate
Loan shall automatically be continued as a Prime Rate Loan.

2.3.6 Repayments, Continuations and Conversions. LIBOR Rate Loans shall mature
and become payable in full on the last day of the Interest Period relating to
such LIBOR Rate Loan. Prior to the termination of this Agreement, upon the
maturity of a LIBOR Rate Loan under this Section 2.3.6, it may be continued for
an additional Interest Period or may be converted to a Prime Rate Loan (if there
exists no Default or Event of Default and the Bank does not otherwise elect to
exercise any right to terminate the Credit Line and demand payment of the
Loans).

2.3.7 Voluntary Prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans. LIBOR Rate Loans maybe prepaid
upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. For LIBOR Rate Loans in
connection with which the Borrower has or may incur Hedging Obligations,
additional obligations may be associated with prepayment, in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the applicable Hedging Contracts. The Borrower shall
give the Bank, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at least four
(4) Business Days notice of any proposed

 

9

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

prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loans, specifying the proposed date of payment of
such LIBOR Rate Loans, and the principal amount to be paid. Each partial
prepayment of the principal amount of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in an integral
multiple of $250,000 and accompanied by the payment of all charges outstanding
on such LIBOR Rate Loans and of all accrued interest on the principal repaid to
the date of payment. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment or acceleration of a
LIBOR Rate Loan during an Interest Period shall result in the Bank incurring
additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult
and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or
liabilities. Therefore, all full or partial prepayments of LIBOR Rate Loans
shall be accompanied by, and the Borrower hereby promises to pay, on each date a
LIBOR Rate Loan is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and
payable, by acceleration or otherwise, in addition to all other sums then owing,
an amount (“LIBOR Rate Loan Prepayment Fee”) determined by the Bank pursuant to
the following formula:

 

  (a) the then current rate for United States Treasury securities (bills on a
discounted basis shall be converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date
closest to the end of the Interest Period as to which prepayment is made,
subtracted from

 

  (b) the LIBOR Lending Rate plus the Applicable Margin applicable to the LIBOR
Rate Loan being prepaid.

If the result of this calculation is zero or a negative number, then there shall
be no LIBOR Rate Loan Prepayment Fee. If the result of this calculation is a
positive number, then the resulting percentage shall be multiplied by:

 

  (a) the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loan being prepaid.

The resulting amount shall be divided by:

 

  (b) 360

and multiplied by:

 

  (c) the number of days remaining in the Interest Period as to which the
prepayment is being made.

Said amount shall be reduced to present value calculated by using the referenced
United States Treasury securities rate and the number of days remaining in the
Interest Period for the LIBOR Rate Loan being prepaid. The resulting amount of
these calculations shall be the LIBOR Rate Loan Prepayment Fee.

2.3.8. LIBOR Rate Lending Unlawful. If the Bank shall determine (which
determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrower be conclusive and
binding on the Borrower) that the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any law, rule, regulation or guideline, (whether or not having
the force of law) makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental
authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Bank to make,

 

10

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

continue or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a
LIBOR Rate Loan of a certain duration, all LIBOR Rate Loans of such type shall
automatically convert into LIBOR-Reference Banks Loans at the end of the then
current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law
or assertion. For purposes of this agreement, in the event of such a conversion,
all LIBOR-Reference Banks Rate Loans shall be treated (except as to interest
rate) as equivalent to a LIBOR Rate Loan of similar amount and Interest Period.
For greater certainty, all provisions of this agreement relating to LIBOR Rate
Loans shall apply equally to LIBOR-Reference Banks Loans, including, but not
limited to the manner in which LIBOR-Reference Banks Loans are requested,
continued, converted, the manner in which interest accrues, is payable,
principal payments are made, whether voluntary or involuntary, as well as any
penalties, increased costs or taxes associated with any of the foregoing.

2.3.9 Substitute Rate. If the Bank shall have determined that

 

  (a) US dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest
Period are not available to the Bank in the London interbank market;

 

  (b) by reason of circumstances affecting the Bank in the London interbank,
adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate applicable hereunder
to LIBOR Rate Loans of any duration, or

 

  (c) LIBOR no longer adequately reflects the Bank’s cost of funding Loans.

Then, upon notice from the Bank to the Borrower, all LIBOR Rate Loans shall
automatically convert to LIBOR-Reference Banks Loans.

2.3.10. Special LIBOR Indemnities. In addition to the LIBOR Rate Loan Prepayment
Fee, the Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank (without duplication) for any
increase in the cost to the Bank, or reduction in the amount of any sum
receivable by the Bank, in respect, or as a result of:

 

  (a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any
LIBOR Rate Loans on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto;

 

  (b) any Loans not being made as LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the
borrowing request thereof;

 

  (c) any LIBOR Rate Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBOR Rate
Loans in accordance with the continuation/conversion notice thereof, or

 

  (d) any costs associated with marking to market any Hedging Obligations that
(in the reasonable determination of the Bank) are required to be terminated as a
result of any conversion, repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any
LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto.

 

11

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

The Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the occurrence of any
such event, such notice to state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and
the additional amount required fully to compensate the Bank for such increased
cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrower
to the Bank within five days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the
Borrower. The Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following:
(i) the Bank does not have any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds
in connection with the use of LIBOR Rate as a basis for calculating the rate of
interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan, (ii) the LIBOR Rate may be used merely as a
reference in determining such rate, and (iii) the Borrower has accepted the
LIBOR Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate, the LIBOR
Rate Prepayment Fee, and other funding losses incurred by the Bank. Borrower
further agrees to pay the LIBOR Rate Prepayment Fee and other funding losses, if
any, whether or not the Bank elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

2.4. Increased Costs. If on or after the date hereof the adoption of any
applicable law, rule or regulation or guideline (whether or not having the force
of law), or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of
law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

 

  (a) shall subject the Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to
its LIBOR Rate Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or shall change
the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of the principal of or interest on
its LIBOR Rate Loans or any other amounts due under this agreement in respect of
its LIBOR Rate Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Rate Loans (except for the
introduction of, or change in the rate of, tax on the overall net income of the
Bank or franchise taxes, imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof) under the laws of which the Bank is
organized or in which the Bank’s principal executive office is located); or

 

  (b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or
similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States)
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by,
the Bank or shall impose on the Bank or on the London interbank market any other
condition affecting its LIBOR Rate Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Rate
Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of
making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum
received or receivable by the Bank under this Agreement with respect thereto, by
an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then, within 15 days after demand
by the Bank, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate the Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

 

12

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

2.5. Taxes. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the
LIBOR Rate Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp
or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges
of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding
franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by the Bank’s net income or
receipts (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). In the event that any
withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder
is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or
regulation, then the Borrower will

 

  (a) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so
withheld or deducted;

 

  (b) promptly forward to the Bank an official receipt or other documentation
satisfactory to the Bank evidencing such payment to such authority; and

 

  (c) pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to
ensure that the net amount actually received by the Bank will equal the full
amount the Bank would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Bank with respect to
any payment received by the Bank hereunder, the Bank may pay such Taxes and the
Borrower will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalties,
interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by
the Bank after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional
amount) shall equal the amount the Bank would have received had not such Taxes
been asserted.

If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing
authority or fails to remit to the Bank the required receipts or other required
documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any incremental
Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Bank as a result of
any such failure.

2.6 Records. Loans under the Credit Line and repayments thereunder shall be
entered on the Bank’s records, provided however, that the failure to enter any
such transaction, or the inaccuracy of any such entry, shall not relieve the
Borrower from any obligations to the Bank, whether under the Revolving Note or
otherwise.

2.7 Reports from Bank. After the end of each month, Bank will render to the
Borrower a statement of the Borrower’s loan account with Bank hereunder. Each
statement shall be considered correct and to have been accepted by the Borrower
and shall be presumed correct, in the absence of manifest error, in respect of
all charges, debits and credits of any nature contained therein under this
Agreement, and the closing balance shown therein, unless the Borrower notifies
Bank in writing of any discrepancy within thirty (30) days from the date of any
such statement.

2.8 Capital Requirements. If after the date hereof the Bank determines that
(a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline
regarding capital requirements

 

13

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

for banks or bank holding companies, or any change in the interpretation or
application thereof by any governmental authority charged with the
administration thereof, or (b) compliance by the Bank or its parent bank holding
company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of
reducing the return on the Bank’s or such holding company’s capital as a
consequence of the Bank’s willingness to make Loans hereunder to a level below
that which the Bank or such holding company could have achieved but for such
adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Bank’s or such
holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and
assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount reasonably
deemed by the Bank to be material, then the Bank shall promptly notify the
Borrower in writing. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank the amount of such
reduction in the return on capital, within 30 days after receipt of written
notice and demand from the Bank for the payment of such reduction in return,
including presentation by the Bank of a statement to the effect that the request
to the Borrower for payment is consistent with requests being made by the Bank
to other borrowers of the Bank with credit facilities of a similar nature to the
Credit Line and of a size in the category of the Maximum Amount, and setting
forth in reasonable detail the Bank’s calculation thereof, which statement shall
be deemed true and correct absent objection in writing by the Borrower that
error has occurred in such calculation. If such objection is made, the Bank will
consider the objection and resolve any error. In determining such amount, the
Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

2.9 Calculating the Ratio of Total Funded Debt to EBITDA. For purposes of
calculating the ratio of Total Funded Debt to EBITDA under Section 2.3, the Bank
shall utilize the Borrower’s financial statements for the most recently
completed fiscal quarter, accompanied by a calculation in reasonable detail of
such ratio submitted at the time the Borrower requests a Loan. The Applicable
LIBOR Margin in effect with respect to a Loan shall change in the event the
ratio of Total Funded Debt to EBITDA as next reported to Bank changes such that
a different Applicable LIBOR Margin would apply. If a party determines in good
faith or obtains knowledge that information contained in any such calculation
was untrue or incorrect in any respect and that the ratio on which the
Applicable LIBOR Margin for any particular period was determined was inaccurate
and, as a consequence thereof, the Applicable LIBOR Margin was incorrect, the
parties shall recalculate the Applicable LIBOR Margin for such period.

3. Principal Bank of Deposit and Lockbox; Minimum Deposit Balances. To enable
the Bank to properly monitor the Credit Line and the financial condition of the
Borrower, Borrower and each Guarantor will maintain Bank as depository for the
depository accounts of Borrower and each Guarantor, as the case may be,
including its operating accounts.

4. Availability of Funds. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2 hereof or in
any disbursement letter signed by the Borrower and accepted by the Bank,
proceeds of Loans shall be credited by the Bank to the general deposit account
of the Borrower with the Bank or shall otherwise be paid to the Borrower as the
Borrower may specify in its notice of borrowing.

 

14

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

5. Use of Loan Proceeds. Borrower covenants that the Loans will be used
exclusively by Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes.

6. Payments to Bank. All payments of principal, interest and any other sums
payable hereunder or under the Credit Line shall be made to the Bank at its
principal office in immediately available funds. The Bank may charge the primary
operating deposit account of Borrower at the Bank (other than payroll, escrow or
trust accounts) with the amount of all payments of interest, principal, letter
of credit fees, and LIBOR breakage fees and will notify the Borrower of the
amount so charged.

7. Expenses. In connection with the preparation, amendment or interpretation of
this Agreement and other documentation relating to the Loans and the collection
of the Obligations made pursuant hereto, the Borrower agrees to pay upon the
signing hereof all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable legal fees of the Bank in connection with origination of the Credit
Line and the original documentation hereof, and to pay within forty-five days
after invoicing the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable legal
fees) of the Bank in connection with any amendment hereto or to any of the other
Loan Documents or any waiver hereunder or thereunder or with interpreting,
enforcing or exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, all whether or not legal action is instituted. In
addition, the Borrower shall pay any and all recording or filing fees, payable
or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of
this Agreement and each of the Loan Documents.

8. Additional Security. Borrower grants to the Bank a security interest in and
with respect to any and all deposits or other sums at any time or times credited
by or due from the Bank to the Borrower (other than payroll, escrow or trust
accounts) and any and all securities, instruments or other personal property of
the Borrower in the possession of the Bank (other than payroll, escrow or trust
accounts), to secure the payment and performance of all Obligations. If a
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Bank may apply such deposits or
other sums credited by, due from or held by it, toward the satisfaction of any
and all such Obligations then due and owing (by reason of their maturity, their
acceleration or otherwise) whether or not other collateral or security is
available to the Bank and will promptly inform the Borrower of such application
of deposits or other sums. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, any and
all rights to require Bank to exercise its rights or remedies with respect to
any other collateral which secures the Obligations, prior to exercising its
right of setoff with respect to such deposits, credits or other property of
Borrower, are hereby knowingly, voluntarily and irrevocably waived.

9. Further Actions; Inspections and Audits. The Borrower will, from time to
time, at the reasonable request of the Bank, execute and deliver all such
further instruments and take such further action as the Bank may reasonably
require to effectuate more perfectly the intent of this Agreement. The Borrower
shall permit the Bank, or its representatives, at any reasonable time and from
to time (but unless an Event of Default exists, following prior notice and only
during normal business hours at mutually agreeable times), to perform such
audits, examinations and inspections as Bank reasonably deems necessary in order
to insure

 

15

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

compliance with this Agreement. The Borrower will pay the Bank’s customary
charges for such audits, examinations and inspections; provided, however, that
Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse Bank for the charges of more than
one (1) audit every year while no Events of Default are continuing.

10. Conditions of Lending. Borrower shall not be entitled to request that Bank
advance funds pursuant to the Credit Line or to issue Letters of Credit unless
Bank shall have determined in its discretion, that Borrower has satisfied the
following conditions precedent, which together may be called the Conditions of
Lending:

10.1 That the statements, representations and warranties of the Borrower
contained herein are and continue to be true in all material respects, other
than representations and warranties which expressly pertain to a specific date
and which are no longer true and correct due to determination of such
representation and warranty as of or for another date or period; that no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and that each request for an
Loan or for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall constitute and be deemed to be
a representation and warranty to the Bank as to the accuracy and completeness in
all material respects of each of the foregoing set forth in this Section 10.1 as
of the date of such request and that upon the request of the Bank, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Bank a certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to
Bank, certifying as to the foregoing on the date of each Loan or issuance of a
Letter of Credit.

10.2 The Borrower shall have delivered to the Bank, at the time of the execution
of this Agreement, a duly authorized and executed Revolving Note.

10.3 Borrower shall have delivered to the Bank, at the time of the execution of
this Agreement, confirmations that the Security Agreement and Pledge Agreement
secure the Revolving Note.

10.4 TechTarget Limited shall have delivered to the Bank a confirmation that its
Guaranty applies to the Obligations of the Borrower under the Revolving Note,
and that its Security Agreement secures such Obligations under its Guaranty.

10.5 The Borrower shall have delivered to the Bank at the time of execution
hereof, or at such other times as shall be reasonably requested by Bank, such
other documents relating to the Credit Line as the Bank may reasonably require,
all in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank.

11. Particular Representations. Borrower represents and warrants as follows,
each of which warranties and representations shall be deemed repeated at the
time of each Loan:

11.1 Borrower is a duly organized and validly existing corporation organized in
the State of Delaware, and has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation in
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and each other jurisdiction set forth on
Schedule 11.1. Borrower is not required to qualify to do business as a foreign
entity in any jurisdiction other than as set forth on Schedule 11.1 inasmuch as
the character of its business and the

 

16

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

ownership of its property, as now conducted or owned, either does not require
such qualification or the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition of the
Borrower. Borrower has conducted its business at all times since the date of the
Prior Agreement under the name “TechTarget, Inc.,” and not under any other name
or tradename. Set forth in Schedule 11.1 are all locations at which Borrower or
any Subsidiary conducts business. No Subsidiaries of the Borrower have net
assets in excess of $1,000, are generating revenues or are conducting business
operations other than TechTarget Securities Corporation and TechTarget Limited.

11.2 The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have all requisite corporate power and
authority to conduct its business and to own its assets as such business is now
conducted or proposed to be conducted.

11.3 The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement,
the Revolving Note, the confirmation of the Security Agreement and the Pledge
Agreement and all other Loan Documents, and the execution by each Guarantor of
its confirmation of its Guaranty and its Security Agreement are within its
corporate powers, and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action, and do not and will not:

 

  (a) Violate any provision of such Borrower’s or Subsidiary’s organizational
documents or by-laws;

 

  (b) Constitute or result in a breach of or default by it under or conflict
with any statute or other law or, to the extent it is a party thereto or bound
thereby, any order, regulation or ruling of any court or other tribunal or of
any governmental or administrative authority or agency or, other than as
applicable provisions have been waived or consent given in writing by the party
to be bound by the waiver or consent, any indenture, agreement, lease,
instrument or other undertaking to which it is a party or by which it or its
properties or assets may be bound, except for such breach, default or conflict
which would not be reasonably expected to result in a material adverse effect on
the Borrower.

 

  (c) Result in the imposition of any liens or encumbrances, other than those
created by this Agreement, the Revolving Note, the Security Agreements, the
Pledge Agreement or any other Loan Document, on any of its property or assets.

11.4 Except as set forth in Schedule 11.4 hereto, there are no actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower,
threatened, against Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of the assets of Borrower or
any Subsidiary, by or before any court or other tribunal or any governmental or
administrative authority or agency, which, if determined adversely, would,
singly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition or business of Borrower and the Subsidiaries
or materially and adversely affect the ability of Borrower to perform the
obligations required of it under this Agreement or under the Loan Documents.

 

17

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

11.5 Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part of any
proceeds of the Loans will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock or to
extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin
stock.

11.6 Borrower and each Subsidiary possess all material licenses and
authorizations from government agencies as may be necessary to conduct its
business as now conducted or proposed to be conducted. To the knowledge of
Borrower, neither it nor any Subsidiary is in material default under any statute
or other law or under any order, regulation or ruling of any court or other
tribunal or any government agency, the enforcement of which would reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or
business of Borrower and the Subsidiaries, nor does Borrower have knowledge that
it or any Subsidiary is in violation of indenture, agreement, lease, instrument
or other undertaking, which indenture, agreement, lease, instrument or
undertaking is material to the business or financial affairs of the Borrower and
the Subsidiaries.

11.7 Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank that the Financial Statements
are complete and correct in all material respects and fairly present its
financial condition as at the dates so indicated therein and in the case of
statements of operations, statements of cash flow or tax returns, the results of
its operations for the period ending on such dates. Borrower is not secondarily
liable, whether as a guarantor, surety co-borrower, endorser or otherwise, for
obligations of any person or entity except as set forth in the Financial
Statements and except for endorsements of negotiable instruments in the ordinary
course of Borrower’s business.

11.8 All federal income tax returns, and, to the best of its knowledge, all
other tax returns, required by law to be filed by Borrower or any Subsidiary
through the date of this Agreement have been filed within applicable time
periods or extensions therefor, and all taxes shown thereon as due and payable,
including any interest or penalties thereon, have been duly paid or adequate
provision for the payment thereof has been made, or to the extent disclosed to
the Bank in writing, are being contested in good faith. Provision has been made
for any other taxes due and payable by Borrower and any Subsidiary in amounts
reasonably deemed adequate by Borrower for such purposes.

11.9 Borrower and each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to its property
shown on the Financial Statements, free of liens, except liens permitted under
this Agreement and except for those liens listed on Schedule 11.9 hereto.

11.10 Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary has incurred nor anticipates
incurring, any material “accumulated funding deficiency” within the meaning of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of l974 (“ERISA”) or any liability
to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) established under such Act
(or any successor thereto under such Act) in connection with any employee
benefit plan (or other class of benefit which the PBGC has elected to insure)
established or maintained by Borrower or any Subsidiary.

 

18

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

11.11 This Agreement, the Revolving Note, the confirmation of the Security
Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and each and all other Loan Documents
executed by Borrower or any of the Guarantors constitute, or will constitute
when delivered, legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and the
Guarantors, and subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and other laws affecting the enforcement or priority of creditors’ rights
generally, now or hereafter in effect, and subject to the provision that
equitable remedies shall be within the discretion of the Court having
jurisdiction to exercise the same, are enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms.

11.12 This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, certificates and written
statements furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to the Bank in connection with
or pursuant to this Agreement did not and do not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact concerning Borrower or any Subsidiary when made or omitted to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein
and therein with respect to Borrower and its Subsidiaries not misleading when
made. To its knowledge, there is no fact (other than facts relating to general
economic conditions) which materially adversely affects the business,
operations, affairs, conditions, properties or assets of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries which has not been set forth in a document, certificate or written
statement furnished to the Bank by or on behalf of Borrower prior to or on the
date of delivery hereof.

12. Particular Covenants.

A. Affirmative Covenants. So long as this Agreement shall be in effect and until
payment in full of all Obligations, the Borrower agrees as follows as to itself
and each Subsidiary:

12A.1 Borrower and each Subsidiary will operate its business in the usual
course, will maintain its legal existence as a corporation and will maintain its
foreign qualification, if any, and good standing in each jurisdiction in which
it is required to do so unless failure to maintain such qualification or good
standing would not have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition
of Borrower or such Subsidiary.

12A.2 Borrower and each Subsidiary will maintain proper records and accounts.

12A.3 At any time that the Borrower’s financial statements are not available on
the EDGAR website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Borrower will

to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or business;

or encumbrance asserted against any asset of Borrower or any Subsidiary except a
security interest in favor of the Bank or a Permitted Encumbrance;

(d) Concurrently with the filing thereof, all reports submitted to the
Securities and Exchange Commission or applicable stock exchanges, and
concurrently with the transmittal thereof, all reports and other materials
transmitted to its stockholders; and

(e) Upon request of the Bank, such other or additional financial information as
to Borrower or any Subsidiary as the Bank may reasonably require.

12A.4 Borrower will cause to be maintained workers’ compensation insurance for
personnel performing services for Borrower or any Subsidiary in such amounts as
may be required by law; and at all times maintain public liability coverage in
amounts, limits and types and with provisions and with insurers as may be
consistent with prudent companies in similar circumstances carrying on similar
businesses. Borrower shall also maintain casualty insurance coverage and other
insurance coverages on the properties and business of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries including the collateral described in the Security Agreements and
business interruption insurance in amounts and types and with provisions as are
usually carried by others in similar circumstances and engaged in similar
businesses. Borrower will furnish to the Bank such written evidence of the
insurance required by this subsection as the Bank may reasonably require.

12A.5 Promptly notify the Bank upon the occurrence, or if practicable, prior to
the occurrence, of any change in the identity of the persons holding the

Borrower’s executive management.

and all other Obligations, as and when due.

12A.7 Except as may be being contested by Borrower or a Subsidiary in good faith

Borrower or the value of the Collateral.

12A.8 Cause the proceeds of each Loan to be used in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement.

12A.9 At such time as a Subsidiary possesses or acquires assets in excess of

Borrower shall notify the Bank and (a) if the Subsidiary is a Foreign

in the form of the Pledge Agreement covering 66 2/3% of the outstanding
ownership interest of the Borrower or as to any other Subsidiary, 100% of the
outstanding ownership interest in such Subsidiary, together with such deliveries
as the Bank may reasonably require, to provide the Bank with a perfected senior
pledge and security interest in such ownership interest and (b) if the
Subsidiary is not a Foreign Subsidiary, shall promptly deliver to the Bank a
guaranty by such Subsidiary of the Obligations in the form reasonably required
by the Bank and a security agreement substantially in the form of the Security
Agreement covering all of the business assets of such Subsidiary, together with
such other documents as the Bank may reasonably require to provide the Bank with
a perfected senior pledge and security interest in such assets.

12A.10 Notify the Bank not later than 30 days prior to any change in the name of
the Borrower or any Subsidiary or of Borrower’s principal executive offices.

payment in full of all Obligations, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary,
without the written consent of the Bank:

business to secure statutory obligations, and other similar obligations not

government agencies except for those permits and licenses the failure of which
to maintain would not be reasonably expected to result in a material adverse
effect on Borrower or such Subsidiary.

ordinances and requirements of all government agencies, the enforcement of which
could have a material adverse effect upon the business, operations or financial

Section 12B.11.

12C. Waiver of Covenants. The Bank may, in its sole discretion, waive any one or

then only to the extent specifically set forth therein.

13. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
(including the expiration of any grace period specifically provided therefor)

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

13.4 If voluntary or involuntary proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy
Code, as amended from time to time (the “Bankruptcy Code”), shall be commenced
by or against the Borrower or any Subsidiary or bankruptcy, receivership,
insolvency, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation or other similar
proceedings shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any Subsidiary
with respect to all or any part of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s property under
the Bankruptcy Code or other law of the United States or of any state or other
competent jurisdiction, and if such proceedings are instituted against the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, if Borrower or such Subsidiary shall consent thereto
or shall fail to cause the same to be discharged or vacated within ninety
(90) days.

13.5 The occurrence of an “Event of Default” (or if the term “Event of Default”
is not utilized therein, the occurrence of a default which default continues
beyond any applicable cure periods) under the Revolving Note, the Security
Agreements, the Pledge Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

13.6 If the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall default in the payment of any
obligation, other than those relating to the Credit Line, for borrowed money to
the Bank, or to any other person or entity, beyond any applicable grace period,
or shall fail to observe or perform any provision contained in any instrument
evidencing, relating to or securing any such obligation, which failure permits
the holder of such obligation to declare the same due prior to its stated
maturity, unless Borrower or such Subsidiary is contesting such default or
failure in good faith by appropriate proceedings commenced and prosecuted with
due diligence. This Section 13.6 shall apply to obligations to creditors other
than the Bank only if and to the extent that such obligations which are in
default exceed $100,000 in the aggregate.

Then, upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default and during the
continuance thereof:

(1) the Bank may notify Borrower that it declines to make further Loans to the
Borrower and to issue further Letters of Credit under this Agreement, and upon
the giving of such notice any obligation of the Bank to make Loans to the
Borrower or to issue Letters of Credit or to provide other financial
accommodations to the Borrower under any other agreement shall cease and
terminate;

(2) thirty (30) days after such notice, all amounts outstanding under the
Revolving Note and all other Obligations shall forthwith become due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are
expressly hereby waived, unless such Event of Default is one described in
Section 13.4, in which case all such amounts shall be and become immediately due
and payable; and

(3) the Bank shall be entitled to pursue any or all remedies available under any
instruments executed in connection with the Loans or Letters of Credit available
under applicable law, in such order as the Bank may determine in its sole
discretion.

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

14. Miscellaneous.

14.1 No failure or delay by the Bank in exercising any right or remedy hereunder
or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder
or thereunder. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be set forth in a writing signed by the Bank and Borrower,
and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. All of the rights
and remedies of the Bank hereunder and under any Loan Document are cumulative
and not exclusive of any other rights and remedies under other agreements of the
Borrower with the Bank or under applicable law, and all such rights and remedies
may be exercised singly or concurrently.

14.2 The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Bank from and
against any and all costs, expenses, judgments and claims, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, arising out of any suit brought against the Borrower and/or the
Bank by reason of, relating to or in connection with the execution, delivery or
performance of this Agreement and any other Loan Document; or by reason of, or
in connection with, any credit extended under this Agreement or any other Loan
Documents, except any costs, expenses, judgments and claims arising out of the
Bank’s gross negligence or bad faith in fact. The obligations of the Borrower
under this Section shall survive payment of the Obligations.

14.3 No notice to or demand upon the Borrower in any instance, shall entitle the
Borrower to any other or further notice or demand under similar or other
circumstances, unless expressly required by law or this Agreement. The Bank
shall be entitled to rely upon any instrument or communication in any form
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by an authorized
officer or representative of the Borrower as evidenced by the most recent
incumbency and authorization certificate furnished to the Bank.

14.4 All notices, demands and other communications by one party hereunder to the
other shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective three days after being
sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,

electronic transmission device, and addressed to the other party as set forth

without the consent of or notice to the Borrower, to grant to one or more banks
or other financial institutions (each, a “Participant”) participation interests

Bank hereunder. In the event of any such grant by Bank of a participation
interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower, Bank
shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and
the servicing of the Loans and the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and
directly with Bank in connection with Bank’s rights and obligations hereunder.

14.8 Bank may furnish any information concerning the Borrower in its possession

reflected hereon as the signatures.

14.11 All of the covenants, representations and warranties herein shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans so long
as any Obligations of the Borrower remain outstanding, and may be relied upon by
the Bank. All covenants, representations and warranties contained in any
certificate, statement, report or other document delivered by or on behalf of
the Borrower as provided herein or otherwise in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be deemed to have been made in this Agreement.

part of this Agreement.

14.13 Headings are included in this Agreement for convenience of reference only
and shall not be deemed to have any legal or other significance whatsoever.

Commonwealth, and without regard to conflict of laws principles applied by such

14.15 The Borrower irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any
Federal or State court sitting in Boston, Massachusetts over any situation or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Borrower
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it any effectively do so under

venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any
claim that the same has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

14.16 THE BORROWER AND BANK EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF

ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR

WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT
FOR BANK TO MAKE THE LOANS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER. The Borrower hereby certifies
that neither Bank nor any of its representatives, agents or counsel has
represented, expressly or otherwise, that Bank would not, in the event of any
such suit, action or proceeding, seek to enforce this waiver of right to trial
by jury. The Borrower acknowledges that it has read the provisions of this
Agreement and in particular, this Paragraph; has consulted legal counsel;
understands the rights it is granting in this Agreement and is waiving in this
Paragraph in particular; and makes the above waiver knowingly, voluntarily and
intentionally.

the parties and supersede any prior agreements (oral or written), and may not be

a written instrument or instruments executed by the party against which
enforcement of the amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or
termination is asserted.

14.19 If any provision hereof shall be determined to be invalid or
unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision hereof.
