3rd Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement

 Exhibit 10.73 
  
 THIRD AMENDMENT TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 
  
 This Third Amendment (this “Amendment”) is made as of the 27th day of December, 2005 to that certain Loan and
Security Agreement dated December 14, 2004, as previously amended by First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated March 16, 2005 and by Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October 31, 2005 (the
“Loan Agreement”) among Citizens Bank of Massachusetts (the “Bank”) and each of VIISAGE TECHNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation, TRANS DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, IMAGING AUTOMATION, INC., a
Delaware corporation and BIOMETRICA SYSTEMS, INC., a New Hampshire corporation (hereinafter individually and collectively referred to as the “Borrower”). Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement. 
  
 RECITALS

  
 Borrower has requested that Bank agree to amend the
Minimum EBITDA covenant contained in Section 15(c) of the Loan Agreement for the discrete fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005. 
  
 Bank is amenable to amending the Minimum EBITDA covenant, but only on the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.

  
 AGREEMENT 
  
 In consideration of the foregoing, of the undertakings of Borrower and Bank
herein and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 1.     The Minimum EBITDA covenant contained in Section 15(c) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to provide that, for the discrete reporting
period ending December 31, 2005 only, Borrower’s EBITDA shall not be less than $1.00. The foregoing amendment is effective only for the discrete reporting period ended December 31, 2005, and Bank’s agreement to modify this
covenant for such period shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to modify or amend this or any other covenant contained in the Loan Agreement for any other reporting period. 
  
 2.     Borrower represents and warrants that all of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in the Loan
Agreement and other Loan Documents are and continue to be true and correct on the date hereof, except to the extent that any of such representations and warranties relate by their terms solely to a date prior to date of this Amendment. Except to the
extent modified by this Amendment, Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all of its covenants and agreements under the Loan Agreement, including without limitation the covenant contained in Section 15 of the Loan Agreement, as modified by
Paragraphs 1 above. 
  
 3.     Borrower further represents and
warrants that this Amendment is a valid and binding obligation of each Borrower, enforceable against each Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as may be affected by bankruptcy and other similar laws of general application affecting the
rights and remedies of creditors. 
  
 4.     Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver such further documents, instruments and agreements and take such further action as Bank may reasonably request, in its sole discretion, to effect the purposes of this Amendment and the Loan Agreement and other Loan
Documents, including, but not limited to the execution and delivery of all documents necessary or reasonably required by Bank to ensure that Bank has perfected liens on all assets of Borrower to the extent originally provided under the Loan
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower hereby appoints any officer or agent of Bank as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney in fact, with power of substitution to endorse the name of Borrower or any of their officers or agents in such
regard, exercisable by Bank during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

 5.     Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Amendment, nothing in this Amendment shall
extend to or affect in any way any of the Obligations or any of the rights and remedies of Bank arising under the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents, and Bank shall not be deemed to have waived any or all of such rights and remedies with
respect to any Event of Default or event or condition which, with notice or the lapse of time, would become an Event of a Default and which, upon Borrower’s execution and delivery of this Amendment, might otherwise exist or which might
hereafter occur. 
  
 6.     By execution of this Amendment,
each Borrower acknowledges and confirms that it does not, as of the date of this Amendment, have any offsets, defenses or claims against Bank or any of its officers, agents, directors or employees whether asserted or unasserted to their respective
Obligations. 
  
 7.     To the extent possible and except for
the specific changes to the Loan Agreement effected hereby, this Amendment shall be construed to be consistent with the provisions of the Loan Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Amendment and any other
document (including, without limitation, any Loan Document), instrument, or agreement entered into by and between Bank and Borrower, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control. This Amendment shall be binding upon Bank and Borrower,
and their representatives, successors, and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Bank and Borrower and their respective successors and assigns. This Amendment and all documents, instruments, and agreements executed in connection herewith
incorporate all of the discussions and negotiations between Borrower and Bank, either expressed or implied, concerning the matters included herein and in such other documents, instruments and agreements, any statute, custom, or usage to the contrary
notwithstanding. No such discussions or negotiations shall limit, modify, or otherwise affect the provisions hereof. No modification, amendment, or waiver of any provision of this Amendment, or any provision of any other document, instrument, or
agreement between any Borrower and Bank shall be effective unless executed in writing by the party to be charged with such modification, amendment, or waiver. 
  

8.     Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of
Bank incurred by Bank in preparation and documentation of this Amendment and all documents ancillary hereto or incurred by Bank after the date of this Amendment in connection with administration of the Obligations or enforcement of any rights of
Bank under the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents or otherwise in respect of any of the Obligations. 
  
 9.     If any clause or provision of this Amendment is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction,
the remainder of this Amendment will not be affected thereby. It is the intention of the parties that if any such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, there will be added in lieu thereof an enforceable provision as similar in
terms to such provision as is possible, and that such added provision will be legal, valid and enforceable. 
  
 10.     This Amendment is delivered to Bank in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and it is the desire and intention of the parties that this Amendment and the Loan Documents be in all respects
interpreted according to the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Borrower each specifically and irrevocably consents to the personal and subject matter, jurisdiction and venue of any court of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts sitting in the
counties of Suffolk or Middlesex or in the District Court of the United States for the District of Massachusetts with respect to all matters concerning this Amendment or the Loan Documents or the enforcement of any of the foregoing. 
  
 11.     This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each
of which will be deemed an original document, but all of which will constitute a single document. This Amendment will not be binding on or constitute evidence of a contract between the parties until such time as a counterpart of this document has
been executed by each of the parties and delivered to Bank.

	 	3.	Viisage will continue to pay the employer portion of medical and dental benefits, disability insurance and life insurance during the severance period; 

  

	 	4.	Full acceleration of all stock options and restricted stock grants on the same terms as if the acquisition constituted a “change in control” under the applicable option
and restricted stock agreements;
