Exhibit 10.1


SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT


This Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (together with any schedule, annex, or exhibit attached hereto, as the same may be amended, restated, or otherwise modified, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of July 29, 2013 (the “Effective Date”) between SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California banking corporation (“Bank”), and RADISYS CORPORATION, an Oregon corporation (“Borrower”).  This Agreement amends, restates, replaces, and supersedes in its entirety, but is not a novation of, that certain Loan and Security Agreement between Bank and Borrower dated November 1, 2011, as amended to date, and provides the terms on which Bank shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Bank.  The parties agree as follows:


1    ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP.  Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13.  All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.
2    LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
		
	2.1
	Promise to Pay.  Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.


		
	2.1.1
	Revolving Advances.


		
	(a)
	Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank shall make Advances not exceeding the Availability Amount.  Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Line may be repaid and, prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions precedent herein.


		
	(b)
	Termination; Repayment.  The Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, when the principal amount of all Advances, the unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations relating to the Revolving Line shall be immediately due and payable.


		
	2.2
	Overadvances.  If, at any time, the Credit Extensions under Section 2.1.1 exceed the lesser of either (a) the Revolving Line or (b) the sum of the Non-Formula Amount and the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately pay Bank in cash such excess. Each Credit Extension shall, at Borrower’s option in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be either in the form of a Prime Rate Credit Extension or a LIBOR Credit Extension; provided that in no event shall Borrower maintain at any time LIBOR Credit Extensions having more than five (5) different Interest Periods. Borrower shall pay interest accrued on the Credit Extensions at the rates and in the manner set forth in Section 2.3(a).


		
	2.3
	Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.


		
	(a)
	Computation of Interest.  Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues.  In computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.


		
	(i)
	Advances.  Subject to Section 2.3(b), each Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made, continued or converted until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate or the LIBOR Rate plus the applicable LIBOR Rate Margin, as the case may be.  Pursuant to the terms hereof, interest on each Advance 



1




shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.  Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of any Advance pursuant to this Agreement for the portion of any Advance so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof.  All accrued but unpaid interest on the Advances shall be due and payable on the Revolving Line Maturity Date.
		
	(b)
	Default Interest.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(a), after an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest two percent (2.00%) above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default (the “Default Rate”).  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.


		
	(c)
	Prime Rate Credit Extensions.  Each change in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions based on changes in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change and to the extent of such change.  Bank shall use its best efforts to give Borrower prompt notice of any such change in the Prime Rate; provided, however, that any failure by Bank to provide Borrower with notice hereunder shall not affect Bank’s right to make changes in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions based on changes in the Prime Rate.


		
	(d)
	LIBOR Credit Extensions.  The interest rate applicable to each LIBOR Credit Extension shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.6(a) hereunder.  Subject to Sections 3.6 and 3.7, such rate shall apply during the entire Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extension, and interest calculated thereon shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extension.


		
	(e)
	Debit of Accounts.  Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments when due, or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank, when due.  Bank shall promptly notify Borrower after it debits Borrower’s accounts.  These debits shall not constitute a set-off.


		
	(f)
	Limitations on Interest Rates.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the total liability for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the applicable limits imposed by any applicable federal, or state interest rate laws.  If any payments in the nature of interest, additional interest and other charges made hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents are held to be in excess of the applicable limits imposed by any applicable federal, or state law, the amount held to be in excess shall be considered payment of principal under the Credit Extensions and the indebtedness evidenced thereby shall be reduced by such amount in the inverse order of maturity so that the total liability for payments in the nature of interest, additional interest and other charges shall not exceed the applicable limits imposed by any applicable federal or state interest rate laws.


		
	2.4
	Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Bank:  


		
	(a)
	Commitment Fee.  A fully earned, non‐refundable commitment fee of $35,000 on the Effective Date and the first and second anniversary thereof; 


		
	(b)
	Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee.  A fee (the “Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee”), payable quarterly, in arrears, on a calendar year basis, in an amount equal to the per annum percentage of the average unused portion of the Revolving Line set forth in the table below, as determined by Bank.  


	
		
	Debt/EBITDA Ratio
	Unused Revolving Line of Facility Fee

	Less than 2.00:1.00
	0.375%

	2.00:1.00 or more
	0.500%









2




The unused portion of the Revolving Line, for purposes of this calculation, shall equal the difference between (x) the Revolving Line amount (as it may be reduced from time to time) and (y) the average for the period of the daily closing balances of the Revolving Line outstanding.  Borrower shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of any Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee previously earned by Bank pursuant to this Section notwithstanding any termination of the Agreement or the suspension or termination of Bank’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder; and
		
	(c)
	Bank Expenses.  All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, plus expenses, for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.


3    CONDITIONS OF LOANS
		
	3.1
	Conditions Precedent to Initial Credit Extension.

	(a)
	Borrower shall have delivered duly executed original signatures to the Loan Documents to which it is a party (including delivery of any and all Collateral required to be delivered under the Loan Documents in order to perfect and preserve Bank’s priority in such Collateral, such as stock certificates and promissory notes in favor of Borrower, each executed in blank);


		
	(b)
	Borrower shall have delivered duly executed original signatures to the Reaffirmation of Guaranty by Radisys International substantially in the form of Exhibit G;

	(c)
	the representations and warranties in Section 5 shall be true in all material respects on the date of the Notice of Borrowing and the Payment/Credit Extension Form, as applicable, and on the Funding Date of each Credit Extension; provided, however, that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof; and provided, further that those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date shall be true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of such date, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result from the Credit Extension.  Each Credit Extension is Borrower’s representation and warranty on that date that the representations and warranties in Section 5 remain true in all material respects; provided, however, that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof; and provided, further that those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date shall be true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of such date; and

3




		
	3.3
	Covenant to Deliver.  Borrower agrees to deliver to Bank each item required to be delivered to Bank under this Agreement as a condition to any Credit Extension.  Borrower expressly agrees that the extension of a Credit Extension prior to the receipt by Bank of any such item shall not constitute a waiver by Bank of Borrower’s obligation to deliver such item, and any such extension in the absence of a required item shall be in Bank’s sole discretion.


		
	3.4
	Procedures for Borrowing.  


		
	(a)
	Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of a Credit Extension set forth in this Agreement, each Credit Extension shall be made upon Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to Bank in the form of a Notice of Borrowing, each executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower or his or her designee or without instructions if the Credit Extensions are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due.  Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee.  Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance.  Such Notice of Borrowing must be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time, (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Credit Extensions, and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of Prime Rate Credit Extensions (provided that if the outstanding Obligations on account of Advances or Letters of Credit on the Funding Date will be in excess of the Non-Formula Amount greater than zero, such Notice of Borrowing for LIBOR or Prime Rate Credit Extensions must be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date), specifying:


		
	(i)
	the amount of the Credit Extension, which, if a LIBOR Credit Extension is requested, shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or in any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof;


		
	(ii)
	the requested Funding Date;


		
	(iii)
	whether the Credit Extension is to be comprised of LIBOR Credit Extensions or Prime Rate Credit Extensions; and


		
	(iv)
	the duration of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Credit Extensions included in such notice; provided that if the Notice of Borrowing shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any Credit Extension comprised of LIBOR Credit Extensions, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.


		
	(b)
	The proceeds of all such Credit Extensions will then be made available to Borrower on the Funding Date by Bank by transfer to the Designated Deposit Account and, subsequently, by wire transfer to such other account as Borrower may instruct in the Notice of Borrowing.  No Credit Extensions shall be deemed made to Borrower, and no interest shall accrue on any such Credit Extension, until the related funds have been deposited in the Designated Deposit Account.


		
	3.5
	Conversion and Continuation Elections.


		
	(a)
	So long as (1) no Event of Default or Default exists; (2) Borrower shall not have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement; and (3) Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for Borrower’s requests for LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to Bank:


		
	(i)
	elect to convert on any Business Day, Prime Rate Credit Extensions in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into LIBOR Credit Extensions;


		
	(ii)
	elect to continue on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Credit Extensions maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or any 



4




integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof); provided, that if the aggregate amount of LIBOR Credit Extensions shall have been reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof, to be less than $1,000,000, such LIBOR Credit Extensions shall automatically convert into Prime Rate Credit Extensions, and on and after such date the right of Borrower to continue such Credit Extensions as, and convert such Credit Extensions into, LIBOR Credit Extensions shall terminate; or
		
	(iii)
	elect to convert on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Credit Extensions maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof) into Prime Rate Credit Extensions.


		
	(b)
	Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 10 to be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time at least (i) three (3) Business Days in advance of the Conversion Date or Continuation Date, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Credit Extensions; and (ii) one (1) Business Day in advance of the Conversion Date, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into Prime Rate Credit Extensions, in each case specifying the:


		
	(i)
	proposed Conversion Date or Continuation Date;


		
	(ii)
	aggregate amount of the Credit Extensions to be converted or continued which, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Credit Extensions, shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or in any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof;


		
	(iii)
	nature of the proposed conversion or continuation; and


		
	(iv)
	duration of the requested Interest Period.


		
	(c)
	If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower shall have timely failed to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Credit Extensions into Prime Rate Credit Extensions.


		
	(d)
	Any LIBOR Credit Extensions shall, at Bank’s option, convert into Prime Rate Credit Extensions in the event that (i) an Event of Default or Default shall exist, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions which have been previously converted to LIBOR Credit Extensions, or the aggregate principal amount of existing LIBOR Credit Extensions continued, as the case may be, at the beginning of an Interest Period shall at any time during such Interest Period exceed the Revolving Line.  Borrower agrees to pay Bank, upon demand by Bank (or Bank may, at its option, charge the Designated Deposit Account or any other account Borrower maintains with Bank) any amounts required to compensate Bank for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost, or expense incurred by Bank, as a result of the conversion of LIBOR Credit Extensions to Prime Rate Credit Extensions pursuant to any of the foregoing.


		
	(e)
	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Bank shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable LIBOR market to fund any LIBOR Credit Extensions, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Bank had purchased such deposits to fund the LIBOR Credit Extensions.


		
	3.6
	Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Credit Extensions.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Credit Extensions as to the matters covered:


		
	(a)
	Determination of Applicable Interest Rate.  As soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, 



5




conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Credit Extensions for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.
		
	(b)
	Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.  In the event that Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Credit Extension, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Credit Extension on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination, whereupon (i) no Credit Extensions may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Credit Extensions until such time as Bank notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to Credit Extensions in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.


		
	(c)
	Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods.  Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written request by Bank (which request shall set forth the manner and method of computing such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities, if any (including any interest paid by Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Credit Extensions and any loss, expense or liability incurred by Bank in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) such that Bank may incur: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund LIBOR Credit Extensions due to impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.7(d) and 3.7(e)) a borrowing or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Credit Extension does not occur on a date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, or (ii) if any principal payment or any conversion of any of its LIBOR Credit Extensions occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Credit Extension.


		
	(d)
	Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Credit Extensions.  Calculation of all amounts payable to Bank under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4 shall be made as though Bank had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Credit Extensions through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Credit Extension and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund each of its LIBOR Credit Extensions in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4.


		
	(e)
	LIBOR Credit Extensions After Default.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have an Credit Extension be made or continued as, or converted to, a LIBOR Credit Extension after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for such Credit Extension and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), any Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a requested conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower and be deemed a request to convert or continue Credit Extensions referred to therein as Prime Rate Credit Extensions.


		
	3.7
	Additional Requirements/Provisions Regarding LIBOR Credit Extensions.


		
	(a)
	If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of a LIBOR Credit Extension prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such Credit Extension, Borrower shall immediately notify Borrower’s account officer at Bank and, on demand by Bank, pay Bank the amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which would have been payable on the amount so received had it not been received until the last day of such Interest Period exceeds (ii) the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the certificate of deposit markets, the offshore currency markets, or United States Treasury investment products, as the case may be, for a period starting on the date 



6




on which it was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by Bank in its reasonable discretion.  Bank’s determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
		
	(b)
	Borrower shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any Credit Extensions relating thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:


		
	(i)
	changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank under this Agreement in respect of any Credit Extensions (other than changes which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office);


		
	(ii)
	imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, or other liabilities of Bank (including any Credit Extensions or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR); or


		
	(iii)
	imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).


Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the Effective Date which will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.7 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.  Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section 3.7.  Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 3.7 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Credit Extensions, of making or maintaining Credit Extensions, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Credit Extensions, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
		
	(c)
	If Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, 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 Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any respect or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or entity controlling Bank (a “Parent”) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction.  A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.7(c) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


		
	(d)
	If, at any time, Bank, in good faith, determines that (i) the amount of LIBOR Credit Extensions for periods equal to the corresponding Interest Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR Credit Extensions, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower.  Upon the giving of such notice, Bank’s obligation to make the LIBOR Credit Extensions shall terminate; provided, however, Credit Extensions shall not terminate if Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Credit Extensions.



7




		
	(e)
	If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Credit Extensions, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall prepay the Credit Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.7(a)).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by Bank as described above relates to a LIBOR Credit Extension then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), to (i) rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such rescission on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above, or (ii) modify such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation to obtain a Prime Rate Credit Extension or to have outstanding Credit Extensions converted into or continued as Prime Rate Credit Extensions by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such modification on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above.


		
	3.8
	Post Closing Conditions Subsequent.  


		
	(a)
	No later than August 12, 2013, or such later date agreed to by Bank in its sole discretion, all transactions necessary for Radisys Canada to become a wholly owned Subsidiary of Borrower shall be consummated.  The date upon which such reorganization is consummated shall hereafter be referred to as the “Reorganization Consummation Date”.


		
	(b)
	Within seven (7) Business Days of the Reorganization Consummation Date, but under no circumstances later than August 21, 2013, or such later date agreed to by Bank in its sole discretion, Borrower shall deliver to Bank duly executed original signatures to a pledge agreement with respect to the pledge by Borrower of 65% of its ownership interest in Radisys Canada.


		
	(c)
	Within seven (7) Business Days of the Reorganization Consummation Date, but under no circumstances later than August 21, 2013, or such later date agreed to by Bank in its sole discretion, Borrower shall deliver to Bank the original share certificate of Radisys Canada representing 65% of Borrower’s ownership interest in Radisys Canada and accompanying duly executed in blank share transfer form.


4    CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.
		
	4.1
	Grant of Security Interest.  


		
	(a)
	Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.  Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien under this Agreement).  If Borrower or any Guarantor shall acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall, and shall cause such Guarantor to, promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower or such Guarantor of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank.


		
	(b)
	Borrower acknowledges that it previously has entered, and/or may in the future enter, into Bank Services Agreements with Bank.  Regardless of the terms of any Bank Services Agreement, Borrower agrees that all amounts Borrower owes Bank under any Bank Services Agreement shall be deemed to be Obligations hereunder and that it is the intent of Borrower and Bank to have all such Obligations secured by the first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral granted herein (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien in this Agreement).  



8




		
	(c)
	If this Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are satisfied in full, and, at such time, Bank shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, terminate its security interest in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.  In the event (x) all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations), except for Bank Services, are satisfied in full, and (y) this Agreement is terminated, Bank shall terminate the security interest granted herein upon Borrower providing such cash collateral, if any, as is acceptable to Bank, consistent with Bank’s then current practice for Bank Services, to secure Obligations in respect of such Bank Services.  In the event such Bank Services consist of outstanding Letters of Credit, Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the dollar equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit.


		
	4.2
	Authorization to File Financing Statements.  Borrower hereby authorizes, and shall cause each Guarantor to authorize, Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower or any Guarantor, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code.


5    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
		
	5.1
	Due Organization and Authorization.  Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is duly existing and in good standing in its state or other jurisdiction of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state or other jurisdiction in which the conduct of their business or its ownership of property requires that they be qualified, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.  In connection with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered, and has caused each Guarantor to deliver, to Bank completed certificates substantially in the form reasonably satisfactory to Bank each signed by Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, entitled “Perfection Certificate”.  Borrower represents and warrants to Bank, as of the date stated in the Perfection Certificate, that (a) Borrower’s and each Guarantor’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificates and on the signature pages thereof; (b) Borrower and each Guarantor are an organization of the type and are organized in the jurisdictions set forth in the Perfection Certificates; (c) the Perfection Certificates accurately set forth Borrower’s and each Guarantor’s organizational identification numbers or accurately state that neither Borrower nor such Guarantor has one; (d) the Perfection Certificates accurately set forth Borrower’s and such Guarantor’s places of business, or, if more than one, its respective chief executive office as well as Borrower’s and such Guarantor’s mailing addresses (if different than its respective chief executive office); (e) except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, Borrower and such Guarantor (and each of its respective predecessors) have not, in the past five (5) years, changed its respective state or other jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its respective jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificates pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete.  If neither Borrower nor any Guarantor is a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall, and shall cause each Guarantor to promptly notify Bank of such occurrence and provide Bank with Borrower’s and such Guarantor’s organizational identification numbers.


The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s organizational documents, not constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower or such Guarantor is bound.  Neither Borrower nor any Guarantor is in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s business.
Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and each Guarantor that is a party thereto and is the legally valid and binding obligation of Borrower and such Guarantor, enforceable against Borrower and such Guarantor in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability (whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

	5.2
	Collateral.  Borrower and each Guarantor have good title to its Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens.  Borrower has no deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts with Bank, the deposit accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith, or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein.  The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations, and the service or property has been performed or delivered to the account debtor or its agent for immediate shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor.  The Collateral is maintained at the locations set forth in the Perfection Certificate.  The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as at a warehouse) except as provided in the Perfection Certificate.  In the event that Borrower or any Guarantor, after the date hereof, intends to store or otherwise deliver the Collateral to a bailee, then Borrower and such Guarantor shall receive the prior written consent of Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), and such bailee must acknowledge in writing that the bailee is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Bank.  All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.  Borrower and Guarantors are the sole owner of its respective Intellectual Property, except for licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business.  To Borrower’s knowledge, each Patent is valid and enforceable, and no material part of the Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except for any such claim that would not be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.


Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any license or other agreement with respect to which Borrower is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or any other property.  Borrower shall take such steps as Bank requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for all such licenses or contract rights to be deemed “Collateral” and for Bank to have a security interest in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement (such consent or authorization may include a licensor’s agreement to a contingent assignment of the license to Bank if Bank determines that is necessary in its good faith judgment), whether now existing or entered into in the future.
		
	5.3
	Accounts Receivable.  


		
	(a)
	Representations Relating to Accounts.  Each Account with respect to which Advances are requested by Borrower represents, on the date each Advance is requested and made, an undisputed bona fide existing unconditional obligation of the account debtor created by the sale, delivery, and acceptance of goods or the rendition of services, or the non-exclusive licensing of Intellectual Property, in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.  Borrower has no notice of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor whose accounts are an Eligible Account.


		
	(b)
	Representations Relating to Documents and Legal Compliance.  All statements made and all unpaid balances appearing in all invoices, instruments and other documents evidencing the Accounts are and shall be true and correct and all such invoices, instruments and other documents and all of the Borrower’s Books are and shall be genuine and in all respects what they purport to be.  All sales and other transactions underlying or giving rise to each Account comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations.  Borrower has no knowledge of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any Account Debtor whose accounts are an Eligible Account in any Borrowing Base Certificate.  To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, all signatures and endorsements on all documents, instruments, and agreements relating to all Accounts are genuine, and all such documents, instruments and agreements are and shall be legally enforceable in accordance with their terms.


		
	5.4
	Litigation.  There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which an adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.


		
	5.5
	No Material Deviation in Financial Statements.  All financial statements for Borrower delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating results of operations.

The fair salable value of Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are able to pay their debts (including trade debts) as they mature.


		
	5.7
	Regulatory Compliance.  Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act.  Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors).  To its knowledge, Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act.  Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.  None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or its Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally.  Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

	5.9
	Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions.

Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower or such Subsidiary (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the governmental authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien”.  Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is aware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower's or such Subsidiary’s prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower or such Subsidiary.  Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries have withdrawn from participation in, and has permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.


		
	5.10
	Use of Proceeds.  Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions solely to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.


		
	5.11
	Full Disclosure.  No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any certificate or written statement given to Bank pursuant to this Agreement (taken together with all such written certificates and written statements to Bank) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading. Bank recognizes that the projections, forecasts, and business plans provided by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected and forecasted results.

Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower except for transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower or any Subsidiary than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person.


		
	7.9
	Other Debt.  Make or permit any payment on or amendments of any Subordinated Debt or the 2015 Notes, except (a) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no Default or Event of Default occurs or will occur on account thereof, regularly scheduled principal and interest payments pursuant to the terms of the 2015 Notes; (b) payments made with Borrower’s capital stock or other Subordinated Debt; or (c) amendments to Subordinated Debt so long as such Subordinated Debt remains subordinated in right of payment to this Agreement and any Liens securing such Subordinated Debt remain subordinate in priority to Bank’s Lien hereunder.


		
	7.10
	Compliance.  Become an “investment company” or a company controlled by an “investment company”, under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or undertake as one of its important activities extending credit to purchase or carry margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), or use the proceeds of any Credit Extension for that purpose; fail to meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA, permit a Reportable Event or Prohibited Transaction, as defined in ERISA, to occur; fail to comply with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act or violate any other law or regulation, if the violation could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s business, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so; withdraw or permit any Subsidiary to withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete termination of, or permit the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower or any Subsidiary, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.


8    EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Any one of the following shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) under this Agreement:
		
	8.1
	Payment Default.  Borrower fails to (a) make any payment of principal or interest on any Credit Extension on its due date, or (b) pay any other Obligations within three (3) Business Days after such Obligations are due and payable.  During the cure period, the failure to cure the payment default is not an Event of Default (but no Credit Extension will be made during the cure period);


		
	8.2
	Covenant Default.


		
	(a)
	Borrower or any Guarantor fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections 6.2, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, and 6.12 or violates any covenant in Section 7; or


		
	(b)
	Borrower or any Guarantor fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, any Loan Documents, and as to any default (other than those specified in this Section 8) under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be cured, has failed to cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof; provided, however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, 



17




and within such reasonable time period the failure to cure the default shall not be deemed an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions shall be made during such cure period).  Grace periods provided under this section shall not apply, among other things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in subsection (a) above;
		
	8.3
	Material Adverse Change.  A Material Adverse Change occurs;


		
	8.4
	Attachment.  (a) Any material portion of Borrower’s assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver and the attachment, seizure or levy is not removed in ten (10) days; (b) the service of process upon Borrower seeking to attach, by trustee or similar process, any funds of Borrower on deposit with Bank, or any entity under control of Bank (including a subsidiary); (c) Borrower is enjoined, restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting a material part of its business; (d) a judgment or other claim in excess of $1,000,000 becomes a Lien on any of Borrower’s assets; or (e) a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against any of Borrower’s assets by any government agency and not paid within ten (10) days after Borrower receives notice.  These are not Events of Default, if cured, if stayed or if a bond is posted in each case within thirty (30) days after such event pending contest or resolution by Borrower (but no Credit Extensions shall be made during the cure period);


		
	8.5
	Insolvency.  Borrower is unable to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they become due or otherwise becomes insolvent; (b) Borrower begins an Insolvency Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against Borrower and not dismissed or stayed within thirty (30) days (but no Credit Extensions shall be made while of any of the conditions described in clause (a) exist and/or until any Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);


		
	8.6
	Other Agreements.  If Borrower fails to (a) make any payment that is due and payable with respect to any Material Indebtedness and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating thereto, or (b) perform or observe any other condition or covenant, or any other event shall occur or condition exist under any agreement or instrument relating to any Material Indebtedness, and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating thereto and the effect of such failure, event or condition is to cause the holder or holders of such Material Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of such Material Indebtedness or cause the mandatory repurchase of any Material Indebtedness;  


		
	8.7
	Judgments.  A judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least $1,000,000 to the extent not covered by independent third-party insurance shall be rendered against Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of ten (10) days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the satisfaction or stay of such judgment);


		
	8.8
	Misrepresentations.  Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Bank or to induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;


		
	8.9
	Other Debt.  A default or breach occurs under (a) any agreement between Borrower and any creditor of Borrower that signed a subordination, intercreditor, or other similar agreement with Bank, or any creditor that has signed such an agreement with Bank breaches any terms of such agreement, (b) the 2015 Notes, or (c) any foreign exchange contract between any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries and the Bank; or

9    BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
		
	9.1
	Rights and Remedies.  While an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:


		
	(a)
	declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);


		
	(b)
	stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;


		
	(c)
	demand that Borrower (i) deposits cash with Bank in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn (plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment)), as collateral security for the repayment of all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit;


		
	(d)
	terminate any FX Contracts;


		
	(e)
	settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower or any Guarantor money of Bank’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;


		
	(f)
	make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral.  Borrower shall, and shall cause each Guarantor to, assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates.  Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants, and shall cause each Guarantor to grant to, Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;


		
	(g)
	apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower or any Guarantor it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any Guarantor;


		
	(h)
	ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral.  Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s and any Guarantors’ labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s and any Guarantors’ rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;


		
	(i)
	place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;


		
	(k)
	demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and


		
	(l)
	exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).


		
	9.2
	Power of Attorney.  Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints, and shall cause each Guarantor to appoint, Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of 



19




Default, to:  (a) endorse Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits.  Borrower hereby appoints, and shall cause each Guarantor to appoint, Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder.  Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
		
	9.3
	Accounts Verification; Collection.  Whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower or any Guarantor money of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account.  After the occurrence of an Event of Default, any amounts received by Borrower or any Guarantor shall be held in trust by Borrower or such Guarantor for Bank, and, if requested by Bank, Borrower shall, and shall cause each Guarantor to, immediately deliver such receipts to Bank in the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.


		
	9.4
	Protective Payments.  If Borrower or any Guarantor fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.6 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower or such Guarantor is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral.  Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower or such Guarantor with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter.  No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.


		
	9.5
	Application of Payments and Proceeds.  Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank shall apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower or any Guarantor account balances, payments, or proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, first, to Bank Expenses, including without limitation, the reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys’ fees incurred by Bank in the exercise of its rights under this Agreement; second, to the interest due upon any of the Obligations; and third, to the principal of the Obligations and any applicable fees and other charges, in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion.  Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower and Guarantors shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower or any Guarantor account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion.  Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower and Guarantors shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency.  If Bank, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.


		
	9.6
	Bank’s Liability for Collateral.  So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person.  Borrower and Guarantors  bear all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.



20




		
	9.7
	No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.


		
	9.8
	Demand Waiver.  Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.


10    NOTICES
All notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication (collectively, “Communication”) by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail or facsimile transmission; (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid; or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address, facsimile number, or email address indicated below.

11    CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER, AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE
California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law.  Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank.  Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court.  Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED 

21




UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court.  The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive.  The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers.  All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed.  If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief.  The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings.  The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings.  The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge.  The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a).  Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies.  The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.
12    GENERAL PROVISIONS

22

The one-year period provided herein shall not be waived, tolled, or extended except by the written consent of Bank in its sole discretion or in the event of fraud or material misrepresentation by Bank.

The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.


		
	12.9
	Confidentiality.  In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (such Subsidiaries and Affiliates, together with Bank, collectively, “Bank Entities”); (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein.  Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank; or (ii) is disclosed to Bank by a third party if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.


Bank Entities may use the confidential information for reporting purposes and the development and distribution of databases and market analyses so long as such confidential information is aggregated and anonymized prior to distribution.  The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
		
	12.10

In any action or proceeding between Borrower and any Guarantor, on the one hand, and Bank on the other, arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled. 


		
	12.11
	Electronic Execution of Documents.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic 



23




form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

	12.16
	Judgment Currency.  


		
	(a)
	If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, Bank could purchase Dollars with such other currency at the buying spot rate of exchange in the New York foreign exchange market on the Business Day immediately preceding that on which any such judgment, or any relevant part thereof, is given.


		
	(b)
	The obligations of Borrower in respect of any sum due to Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency Bank may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with such other currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Bank in Dollars, Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Bank against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to Bank in Dollars, Bank shall remit such excess to Borrower
