In case any such action is brought by a third party against an indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7.04 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.  In any such proceeding by a third party, an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel.  It is agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to local counsel where necessary) for all such indemnified parties.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(b)  Upon the withdrawal of any Excluded Costs or other amounts from the Special Account in accordance with the terms hereof, Ligand's security interest in such amounts granted pursuant to Section 8.01(c) shall be automatically terminated and released.

(d) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, at the Company's request, Ligand shall subordinate its liens and other rights with respect to any such assets or property or terminate and release its liens with respect to any such assets or property (in each case other than the Royalty Interests and the Royalty Related Collateral) in connection with any Permitted Transaction.   (e) Upon the termination of the MidCap Credit Facility (or, if the MidCap Credit Facility is refinanced by another debt facility secured by all Collateral (other than the Royalty Interests and the Royalty Related Collateral), upon the termination of such refinancing debt facility), Ligand's security interest in all Collateral (other than the Royalty Interests and the Royalty Related Collateral) shall automatically be terminated and released.   (f) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 8.06, Ligand shall execute and deliver to the Company all documents that the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release.

  Exhibit A to the Royalty Agreement GUARANTY AGREEMENT                          





 






EXECUTION VERSION  GUARANTY AGREEMENT THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is dated as of May 31, 2017, by AZIYO BIOLOGICS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Guarantor”), for the benefit of LIGAND PHARMACEUTICALS INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Ligand”) pursuant to a certain Royalty Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, with Aziyo Med, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as such Agreement may be amended from time to time, the “Royalty Agreement”).  Unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires, capitalized terms are used herein with the respective meanings set forth in the Royalty Agreement. W I T N E S S E T H: WHEREAS, Aziyo Med, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) is wholly subsidiary of the Guarantor, and the Guarantor acknowledges that it will benefit from the Royalty Agreement and the transactions related thereto; and WHEREAS, the Guarantor is willing to guaranty the payment by the Company of the Buydown Payment under Section 2.01 of the Royalty Agreement as set forth below; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), and intending to be legally bound, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 1. The Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guaranties to Ligand the payment by the Company of the Buydown Payment under Section 2.01 of the Royalty Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein, and the Guarantor covenants and agrees that upon the failure by the Company to pay any installment of the Buydown Payment on or prior to the due date, the Guarantor shall, upon demand by Ligand, pay the same itself, or cause the same to be paid, as if the Guarantor were the obligor under the Royalty Agreement.  This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon payment in full of the Buydown Payment.   2. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be impaired, released, modified, stayed, limited, terminated or discharged in whole in party, by any of the following and the Guarantor hereby freely and voluntarily waives any defense based on any of the following: the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Royalty Agreement or any provision thereof, or the absence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Guarantor or any other party or any action to enforce the same (other than to the extent that such recovery results in the full satisfaction and performance of any obligations of the Guarantor hereunder), any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of the Company under the Royalty Agreement, all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Agreement or other notices to which the Company may be entitled, the benefit or defense of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of the Guarantor hereunder or the liability of the Company, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution and indemnity, and any rights or claims of any kind 





 






2 or nature against the Company which arise out of or are caused by this Agreement, and any rights to enforce any remedy which the Guarantor may have against the Company, any duty of Ligand to advise the Guarantor of any information known to Ligand regarding the financial condition of the Company or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, and irrespective of any other circumstances which might otherwise limit recourse against the Guarantor or constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, the Guarantor shall not be required to perform or cause to be performed any obligation as to which the Company would be discharged, released or otherwise excused under the provisions of the Royalty Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not be interpreted to impose upon the Guarantor any greater obligations than the obligations of the Company under the Royalty Agreement as the terms thereof may be modified, waived or released from time to time. 3. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any requirement that (i) any person first enforce any remedies it may have against the Company or any other person, (ii) any person first seek to recover from the Company under the Royalty Agreement before proceeding against the Guarantor hereunder, (iii) the existence of any matter or circumstance concerning the ability (financial or otherwise) of the Company to perform its obligations under the Royalty Agreement, or (iv) any other requirement, condition or matter, whether or not similar to the foregoing, other than events, conditions or circumstances which, under the express terms and provisions of the Royalty Agreement, discharge, release or otherwise excuse performance by the Company of its obligations under the Royalty Agreement.  This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely of collection. The obligations of the Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to any claim of the Guarantor against any other person (including, without limitation, Ligand) other than a setoff, reduction, claim or defense expressly authorized under the Royalty Agreement.   4. The Guarantor shall maintain and do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.  The Guarantor shall not seek or permit the dissolution or liquidation of the Guarantor in whole or in part, merge into, consolidate with, or in any way be acquired by any person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any person or persons, unless the surviving or resulting person (or, in the case of a transfer of assets, the transferee) assumes all of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. Neither the Guarantor’s obligation to make payment or render performance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof, shall be impaired, modified, stayed, released, limited, terminated or discharged in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change, release, limitation or stay of the liability of the Company or its estate in bankruptcy or any remedy for the enforcement thereof resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of Title 11 of the United States Code entitled “Bankruptcy,” as now and hereafter in effect, or any successor statute or other statute or from the decision of any court interpreting any of the same, and the Guarantor shall remain obligated under this Agreement as if no such impairment, stay, modification, change, release or limitation had occurred. 





 






3 5. No failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Royalty Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other right, power or privilege.  No waiver, amendment, release or modification of this Agreement shall be established by conduct, custom or course of dealing, but solely by an instrument in writing duly executed by the party against whom such waiver, amendment, release or modification is sought to be enforced.   6. The Guarantor may, upon prior written notice to Ligand, assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement at any time so long as such assignee or delegee shall be creditworthy and capable of performing the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder; and such assignment or delegation shall relieve the Guarantor of any obligations or liabilities hereunder arising on or after the date of the assignment or delegation so long as Ligand consents in advance to such assignment or delegation, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Any assignment in violation of this Section 6 shall be null and void and of no effect. 7. The invalidity or unenforceability of one or more provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement. 8. Notwithstanding any performance by the Guarantor by reason of this Agreement, the Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any claim whatsoever against the Company in consequence of such performance.  The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to collect from the Company under any right or claim to subrogation (or right in the nature of a right to subrogation) against the Company to which it would be entitled under applicable law in consequence of such performance.  If the Guarantor shall nonetheless receive any amount or property in consequence of a right of subrogation or similar right, such amount shall be held in trust by the Guarantor and paid over to, or upon the direction of, the Company without further claim for its return.  The foregoing limitation shall not preclude the Company from making any payment to the Guarantor in respect of any performance by the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder. 9. Notices and other communications to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile (i) if to the Guarantor, at 12510 Prosperity Drive, Suite 370, Silver Spring, Maryland 20904, Attention: President, with a copy to Shipman & Goodwin LLP, its counsel, at One Constitution Plaza, Hartford, Connecticut 06103, Attention: John H.

Any notice given pursuant to this Section 9 shall be effective upon receipt.   10. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware other than its choice of law rules.   11. The Guarantor irrevocably (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal 





 






4 proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be brought in a court of record in the State of Delaware or in the Courts of the United States of America, District of Delaware, (ii) consents to the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) waives any objection which the Guarantor may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
