Security Agreement



 Exhibit 10.3 
 SECURITY AGREEMENT 
 This Security Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as
of March 9, 2009, by and between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”) and RELIANT TECHNOLOGIES, LLC (“Pledgor”). 
 RECITALS 
 SOLTA MEDICAL, INC. (“Borrower”) wishes to borrow money from time to time from Bank pursuant to that
certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof executed by and between Borrower and Bank (as amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”; capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Loan Agreement). 
 In consideration of the agreement of Bank to extend credit and
make other financial accommodations to Borrower under the Loan Agreement, Pledgor has executed that certain Unconditional Guaranty dated as of the date hereof in favor of Bank (as amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Guaranty”). 
 Pledgor’s obligations under the Guaranty (the “Guarantor Obligations”) shall be secured pursuant to
and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 AGREEMENT 
 The parties agree as follows: 
 1. DEFINITIONS.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the following meanings: 
 “Collateral” means the
property described in Exhibit A attached hereto. 
 “Responsible Officer” is any of Pledgor’s Chief Executive Officer,
the President, the Chief Financial Officer and the Controller. 
 2. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST 
 2.1 Grant of Security Interest. Pledgor grants Bank a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure the prompt payment and performance
of the Guarantor Obligations. Such security interest constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in Collateral acquired after the date
hereof, subject in each case to Permitted Liens. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may liquidate the Collateral and apply such funds toward repayment of the Guarantor Obligations. Such liquidation shall not
be deemed a set-off. 
 2.2 Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Pledgor will from time to time execute and deliver to Bank,
at the request of Bank, all financing statements and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue the perfection of Bank’s security interests in the Collateral. Pledgor authorizes Bank
to file financing statements without notice to Pledgor, in all appropriate jurisdictions, as Bank deems appropriate, to perfect or protect Bank’s interest in the Collateral. 
 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Pledgor represents and warrants as follows: 
 3.1 Due Organization and Qualification. Pledgor is duly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation and is
qualified and licensed to do business in, and is in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, (except where the failure to so qualify could not reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on Pledgor’s business). 







 3.2 Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement are
within Pledgor’s powers, have been duly authorized, and neither conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained in Pledgor’s formation documents or operating agreement, nor will they constitute an event of default under
any material agreement to which Pledgor is a party or by which Pledgor is bound. 
 3.3 No Prior Encumbrances. Pledgor has good title
to the Collateral, free and clear of any liens, security interests, or other encumbrances other than Permitted Liens. 
 3.4
Litigation. There is no action, suit or proceeding affecting Pledgor pending or threatened in writing before any court, arbitrator, or governmental authority, domestic or foreign, which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the ability of Pledgor to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Guaranty. 
 3.5 Solvency. The fair salable
value of Pledgor’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Pledgor is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Pledgor is able to pay its debts
(including trade debts) as they mature. 
 4. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 
 Pledgor covenants and agrees that, until the Guarantor Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) cease, Pledgor shall do all of the following: 
 4.1 Good Standing. Maintain its existence and its good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and maintain qualification in each jurisdiction
in which the failure to so qualify could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Pledgor’s business. 
 4.2
Government Compliance. Comply with all statutes, laws, ordinances and government rules and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Pledgor’s business.

 4.3 Insurance. 
 (a) At Pledgor’s expense, keep the Collateral insured against loss or damage in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 6.5 of the Loan Agreement. 
 4.4 Taxes. Make timely payment of all material foreign, federal, state, and local taxes or assessments (other than taxes and assessments which
Pledgor in good faith contests its obligations by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted), and shall deliver to Bank, upon demand, appropriate certificates attesting to such payments. 
 5. NEGATIVE COVENANTS 
 Pledgor covenants and agrees
that, until the Guarantor Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) cease, Pledgor shall not do any of the following: 
 5.1
Dispositions. Convey, sell, lease, transfer, pledge, assign control over or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”) all or any part of the Collateral other than Transfers (a) in the ordinary course of business;
(b) of non-exclusive licenses and similar arrangements for the use of the Collateral; (c) of worn-out or obsolete equipment; or (d) otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents. 
 5.2 Encumbrances. Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any security interest, lien or encumbrance with respect to the Collateral, other than
Permitted Liens. 
 5.3 Change in Jurisdiction of Formation, Organizational Structure, Type. Without 30 days prior written notice to
Bank, change its jurisdiction of formation or its organizational structure or type.

 6. EVENTS OF DEFAULT 
 Any one or more of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement: 
 6.1
Covenant Default. If Pledgor fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any material term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Guaranty, and, except with respect to Sections 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 of
this Agreement, as to any default under a term, condition or covenant that can be cured, has not cured the default within 10 days after it occurs, or if the default cannot be cured within 10 days or cannot be cured after Pledgor’s
attempts in the 10 day period, and the default may be cured within a reasonable time, then Pledgor has an additional time, (of not more than 30 days) to attempt to cure the default. During the cure periods set forth herein, the failure to
cure the default is not an Event of Default. 
 6.2 Attachment. If any portion of the Collateral is made the subject of a lien,
security interest or other encumbrance (other than that in favor of Bank or Permitted Liens), or is attached, seized, subjected to a writ or distress warrant, or is levied upon, or comes into the possession of any trustee, receiver or person acting
in a similar capacity and such attachment, seizure, writ or distress warrant or levy has not been removed, discharged or rescinded within 10 days, or if Pledgor is enjoined, restrained, or in any way prevented by court order from continuing to
conduct all or any material part of its business affairs and such injunction, restraint or order has not been removed, discharged or rescinded within 10 days. During the cure period set forth herein, the failure to cure the default is not an
Event of Default. 
 6.3 Misrepresentations. If any material misrepresentation or material misstatement exists now or hereafter in any
warranty or representation set forth herein or in any certificate delivered to Bank by any Responsible Officer pursuant to this Agreement or to induce Bank to enter into this Agreement or the Guaranty. 
 6.4 Insolvency. (a) Pledgor is unable to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they come due; (b) Pledgor begins an Insolvency
Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against Pledgor and not dismissed or stayed within 30 days. 
 6.5 Material
Adverse Change. If there is (a) a material impairment in the perfection or priority of Bank’s Lien in the Collateral or in the value of such Collateral; (b) a material adverse change in the business, operations, or condition
(financial or otherwise) of Guarantor; or (c) a material impairment of the prospect of repayment of any portion of the Guarantor Obligations. 
 7.
BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES 
 7.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Pledgor: 
 (a) Exercise all rights available to it under the Code and applicable law; 
 (b) Set off and apply to the obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Pledgor held by Bank or in which Bank acts as
custodian, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Pledgor held by Bank; and 
 (c)
Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Pledgor’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially
reasonable in accordance with the Code. 
 7.2 Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement and any
documents related thereto, the Guaranty, and this Agreement shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy
shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Pledgor’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. 
  

 3 








 7.3 Demand; Protest. Pledgor waives demand, protest, notice of protest, 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 at any time held by Bank on which
Pledgor may in any way be liable. 
 7.4 Power of Attorney. When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Pledgor irrevocably
appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (a) endorse Pledgor’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Pledgor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any account or drafts against account debtors,
(c) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Pledgor’s insurance policies; (d) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and
(e) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Pledgor’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the security interest granted herein
regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank’s appointment as Pledgor’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until the Guarantor Obligations (other than
inchoate indemnity obligations) cease. 
 7.5 Bank Expenses. If Pledgor fails to pay any amount due hereunder or furnish any required
proof of payment to third persons in connection with the Collateral, Bank may make all or part of the payment and take any action Bank deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest
at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default. After the sale of any of the Collateral, Bank may deduct all
reasonable legal and other expenses and attorneys’ fees for preserving, collecting, selling and delivering the Collateral and for enforcing its rights with respect to the Guarantor Obligations, and shall apply the remainder of the proceeds to
the Guarantor Obligations in such manner as Bank in its reasonable discretion shall determine, and shall pay the balance, if any, to Pledgor. 
 7.6 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and the Code, it is not liable or responsible for the safekeeping of the Collateral.

 9. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER 
 This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to principles
of conflicts of law. Each of Pledgor and Bank hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts located in the County of Santa Clara, State of California. PLEDGOR AND BANK EACH HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A
JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE GUARANTY AND ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL
OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY RECOGNIZES AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR IT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS
LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL 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. 
 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 10.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Pledgor may not assign this Agreement or any rights under it without Bank’s prior written consent
which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s reasonable discretion. Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Pledgor, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s
obligations, rights and benefits under this Agreement. 
 10.2 Indemnification. Pledgor will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank
and its officers, employees, and agents (each, an “Indemnified Person”) against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Guaranty and/or
this Agreement; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses incurred, or paid by Bank from, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Pledgor under the Guaranty and/or Agreement (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses), except in each case, for obligations, demands, claims, liabilities or losses caused by an Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 10.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations set forth in
this Agreement. 
 10.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in
determining the enforceability of any provision. 
 10.5 Amendments in Writing, Integration. All amendments to this Agreement must be

warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement merge into this Agreement and the Guaranty. 
 10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, are one
Agreement. 
 10.7 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force while any
Guarantor Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) remain outstanding. The obligations of Pledgor in Section 10.2 to indemnify Bank will survive until all statutes of limitations for actions that may be brought against Bank have
run. 
 10.8 Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses. In any action or proceeding between Pledgor and Bank arising out of the
Guaranty or this Agreement, the prevailing party will 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, whether or not a lawsuit is filed.

 10.9 Disclosure of Information; Borrower Collateral. Pledgor acknowledges that it has, independently of and without reliance on
Bank, made its own credit analysis of Borrower and the assets pledged by Borrower to Bank under the Loan Agreement, if any (the “Borrower Collateral”), performed its own legal review of this Agreement, the Guaranty, the Loan Agreement and
all related documents and filings, and is not relying on Bank with respect to any of the aforesaid items. Pledgor has established adequate means of obtaining from Borrower, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to
Borrower’s financial condition and the value of the Borrower Collateral and status of Bank’s lien on and in the Borrower Collateral. Pledgor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events or circumstances which
might in any way affect Pledgor’s risks hereunder or under the Guaranty, and Pledgor further agrees that Bank shall have no obligation to disclose to Pledgor information or material with respect to Borrower or the Borrower Collateral acquired
in the course of Bank’s relationship with Borrower. Bank makes no representation, express or implied, with respect to the Borrower Collateral or its interest in, or the priority or perfection of its lien on and in the Borrower Collateral.
Pledgor acknowledges that its obligation hereunder will not be affected by (a) Bank’s failure properly to create a lien on or in the Borrower Collateral, (b) Bank’s failure to create or maintain a priority with respect to the
lien purported to be created in the Borrower Collateral, or (c) any act or omission of Bank (whether negligent or otherwise) which adversely affects the value of the Borrower Collateral or Bank’s lien thereon or the priority of such lien.
