Ladies
and Gentlemen:

 

The
undersigned, Kenneth B. Bloom, M.D., together with his spouse, Sherry Lynn
Bloom (collectively, “Bloom”), as sole shareholder of Clarient Pathology
Services, Inc. (the “P.C.”), hereby agrees with Clarient, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (“Clarient”), as follows:

 

1.                                       Bloom acknowledges that he is the owner of
100 shares of no par common stock, of the P.C. (the “Shares”).  Bloom agrees that he will not transfer,
assign, pledge or hypothecate in any way the Shares, except in accordance with
the terms of this letter.

 

2.                                       For good and adequate consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which Bloom hereby acknowledges, Bloom hereby agrees
irrevocably and unconditionally that at the option of Clarient (the “Option”),
he shall transfer to Clarient or its designee all, but not less than all, of
the Shares by delivery of such Shares, together with necessary stock powers in
blank, against payment in cash in an amount equal to $1.00 per share.  Bloom agrees that the Option shall be
exercised in a manner such that the ownership of the Shares will not violate
any applicable laws or regulations. 
Clarient shall give Bloom written notice of the transfer of the Shares
upon the exercise of the Option.  To
effectuate this provision, Clarient shall hold the Shares in escrow, along with
executed stock powers in blank.

 

3.                                       Clarient hereby agrees to indemnify Bloom and
to hold him harmless from and against any loss, damage, cost or expense
(including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees), suffered or
incurred by Bloom, arising out of any claim solely relating to his position as
a shareholder, director, and officer of the P.C. (and not alleging negligence,
wrongful act of willful misconduct on the part of Bloom), of which Bloom
promptly notifies Clarient in writing. 
Clarient shall have the right to assume the defense of any such
indemnified claim and Bloom shall not settle any such claim without Clarient’s
prior written consent.

 

4.                                       The Option shall be binding upon Bloom and
his respective heirs, executors, and administrators, and upon any assignee or
transferee of Shares, by Operation of law or otherwise.

 

5.                                       Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
give to Clarient a present ownership interest in the Shares.

 

 

6.                                       The Shares will bear an appropriate legend
stating that the Shares are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this letter substantially in the following form, as well as any legend required
by appropriate Blue Sky officials:

 

“The
securities represented by this certificate (i) are subject to the
restrictions on transfer contained in a letter agreement dated June 28,
2008, between Clarient and the holder of this certificate (a copy of which is
available without charge) and (ii) have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 or applicable state securities laws and may not be
transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of in the absence of an effective
registration statement with respect to the securities evidenced by this
certificate.”

 

7.                                       The P.C.’s records and stock ledger shall
contain a stop transfer instruction reflecting this letter agreement.

 

If
the foregoing accurately sets forth the agreement between us, kindly execute
the enclosed counterpart of this letter in the space indicated below for such
purpose and return such signed counterpart to the undersigned, whereupon this
letter shall become a binding agreement between us.

THE LOANS

 

Section 2.01.  Loans.

 

(a)           At the request of the Company, the
Bank shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from time to
time on Business Days during the period from and including the date hereof to
but excluding the Termination Date, make one or more Loans to the Company such
that, at the time of the making of any such Loan, the aggregate principal
amount of all Loans outstanding hereunder at such time (including such Loan)
shall not exceed the Commitment.

 

(b)           The Company may request a Loan only
by written notice to the Bank signed by an Authorized Signatory of the Company
specifying the amount to be borrowed (which must be in a minimum principal
amount of $5,000,000 or any larger amount in increments of $1,000,000) and the
Interest Period to be applicable to the proposed Loan.  Such notice must be delivered to the Bank at
or before 4:30 p.m. (Paris time) on the Business Day immediately preceding
the date of the proposed borrowing.  The
Bank shall send the proceeds of any Loan by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the Company’s Authorized Account.

 

Loans will be
only “LIBO Rate Loans”, each of which shall be denominated in Dollars and have
an Interest Period as selected by the Company, subject to standard market
conventions as to adjustments for non-Business Days and month-ends (but in no
event extending beyond the Maturity Date), and shall bear a per annum interest
rate equal to [***]% over the
applicable LIBO Rate.  For purposes
hereof, the applicable “LIBO Rate” shall be the Dollar LIBO Rate for the
applicable Interest Period determined by reference to Page 3750 or page 3740,
as applicable (or any replacement pages), by “Telerate The Financial
Information Network” published by Telerate Systems, Inc. (the “Telerate
Service”) as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the
first day of such Interest Period or (if such rate does not so appear on the
Telerate Service) such other publicly available service for displaying LIBO
rates as may be agreed upon by the Bank and the Company.

 

(c)           Each Loan will bear interest from its
date until maturity on the basis specified to the Company by the Bank (subject
to subsection (b) above) contemporaneously with the making of such Loan,
payable at maturity.  Overdue payments of
principal, interest and other amounts payable hereunder shall bear interest,
payable on demand, at a rate for each day equal to the Base Rate for such day
plus 1% per annum.

 

No partial or
total prepayment of any Loan shall be allowed, except with the prior written
consent of the Bank.

(d)           All Loans shall be evidenced by a
promissory note appropriately completed, executed and delivered by the Company
in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Note”).  The Bank will endorse on the Note or
otherwise record in its internal records the amount of each Loan, the interest
rate  applicable thereto and each payment
of principal or interest made in respect thereof; provided that neither
the failure of the Bank to do so nor any error by the Bank in doing so shall
affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Note.

 

Section 2.02.  Conditions.  The obligation of the Bank to make a Loan on
any proposed borrowing date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the
following conditions:

 

(i)                                   The representations and warranties of the
Company herein shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date
of such borrowing as though made on and as of such date; and

 

(ii)                                No Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing on the date of such borrowing (either before or after giving
effect to such borrowing); and

 

(iii)                             The
Company shall have borrowed the entire Commitment (as defined in the First
Revolving Credit Agreement) under the First Revolving Credit Agreement, which amount
remains outstanding, and no Event of Default under the First Revolving Credit
Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing;
and

 

(iv)                            The Bank shall have received the properly
completed and executed Note and such corporate resolutions, certificates,
opinions of counsel and other documents in connection herewith as the Bank may,
in its reasonable discretion, have required.

 

The Company
shall be deemed to have made a representation and warranty on the date of each
borrowing that the conditions specified in clauses (i) through (iii) above
have been satisfied.

 

Section 2.03.  Commitment Fees.  The Company agrees to pay to the Bank a
commitment fee at the rate of [***]%
per annum on the unused amount of the Commitment from time to time
outstanding.  Such fee shall be payable
quarterly in arrears on each three-month anniversary of the date hereof and on
the date on which the Commitment terminates.

 

Section 2.04.  Taxes; Increased Costs.

 

(a)           All payments under this Agreement

payable to the Bank free and clear of any and

all present and
future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, fees,
liabilities and similar charges other than those imposed on the overall net
income of the Bank (“Taxes”).  If any
Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amount payable under
this Agreement, then the amount payable under this Agreement will be increased
to the amount which, after deduction from such increased amount of all Taxes
required to be withheld or deducted therefrom, will yield to the Bank the
amount stated to be payable under this Agreement, and the Company will promptly
provide to the Bank tax receipts evidencing the payment of such Taxes.  If any of the Taxes specified in this
subsection (a) are paid by the Bank, the Company will, upon demand of the
Bank, reimburse the Bank for such payments, together with any interest and
penalties which may be imposed by the governmental agency or taxing authority
in respect thereof.

 

(b)           If, after the date hereof, the
adoption of any law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency (i) subjects the Bank to any charge with respect to any
Loan or the Commitment or changes the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank
hereunder or under the Note (except for changes in the rate of tax on the
overall net income of the Bank or (ii) imposes, modifies or makes
applicable any reserve, special deposit, deposit insurance assessment or
similar requirement against loans made by the Bank, and the result of any of
the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining such
Loan or to reduce any amount received or receivable by the Bank hereunder or
under the Note, then, upon demand by the Bank, the Company shall pay to the
Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank for such increased
cost or reduction; provided that the Bank shall have provided to the
Company thirty days’ prior written advice of any such additional amounts (and
the basis for calculation thereof).  In
determining such additional amounts, the Bank will act reasonably and in good
faith.  A certificate of the Bank as to
the additional amount or amounts payable to the Bank under this subsection (b) shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 2.05.  Capital Adequacy.  If the adoption after the date hereof of any
applicable law, rule or regulation 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 the Bank with
any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the
force of law) of any such authority, central bank or other agency, has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank’s capital as a
consequence of the Bank’s obligations hereunder or under any Loan to a level
below that which the Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or
compliance by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, the Company shall
pay to the Bank, on demand, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate the Bank for such reduction; provided that the Bank shall
have provided to the Company thirty days’ prior written advice of any such
additional amounts (and the basis for calculation thereof).  In determining such additional amounts, the
Bank will act reasonably and in 

 

5

 

good
faith.  A certificate of the Bank as to
the additional amount or amounts payable to the Bank under this Section 2.05
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 2.06.  Payments and Computations.

 

(a)           Subject to the terms and provisions
of this Agreement, all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other
obligations payable by the Company hereunder or under the Note shall be made by
12:00 noon (Paris time) on the date when due to the Bank by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Bank in accordance with the
wire instructions provided by the Company, or as otherwise from time
to time notified to the Company by the Bank in writing.

 

(b)           All
computations of interest and fees shall be made on the basis of a year of 360
days, for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day).  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein or in the Note, interest shall in no
event accrue hereunder or under the Note at a rate in excess of the maximum
rate permitted under applicable law.

 

(c)           Whenever
any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is
not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of payment
of interest or fees, as the case may be.

 

(d)           If
for any reason due to acceleration following the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the principal of any LIBO Rate Loan, or any portion thereof, is paid
prior to the scheduled maturity date therefor, or if any LIBO Rate Loan is not
borrowed after notice thereof shall have been received by the Bank, the Company
will reimburse the Bank, on demand, for any resulting loss or expense incurred
by the Bank, including without limitation any loss or expense incurred in
obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties.

 

(e)           The Bank is hereby
authorized to charge the account, if any, of the Company maintained with the
Bank for each payment of principal, interest and fees due from the Company as
it becomes due hereunder.

 

Section 2.07.  Optional Reduction of Commitment by the
Company.  With the mutual consent of
the Bank and the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, the Company may
reduce the unused portion of the Commitment at any time in whole, or from time
to time in part by an amount equal to $5,000,000 or any larger amount in
increments of $1,000,000, by delivering to the Bank written notice specifying
the amount of such reduction and the date on which such reduction is to become
effective (which date may not be earlier than the date of delivery of such notice).  Any such reduction shall be irrevocable.

 

Section 2.08.  Termination of Commitment by the Bank.  The Bank may, at any time, in its sole and
absolute discretion, terminate its commitment to make Loans 

 

6

 

hereunder by
delivering a Notice of Termination to the Company in accordance with the notice
provisions set forth in Section 6.02. 
Any such termination shall be effective on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date of the Company’s
receipt of such Notice (or, if such fifth (5th) anniversary is not a Business Day, the
first Business Day immediately succeeding such fifth (5th) anniversary).

MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section 6.01.  Amendments and Waivers.  No failure or delay on the part of the Bank
in exercising any power or right hereunder or under the Note shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or
power preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power hereunder.  No
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Note nor consent
to any departure by the Company herefrom or therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank and the
Company.  Any such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given.  No notice to or demand

given to a party hereunder will be duly given and deemed to have been received
when actually delivered (or 72 hours after having been deposited in the mails

signature pages hereof (or at such other address as such party shall
specify to the other party in writing), including delivery by telex,

forms of notices or instructions hereunder that the Bank reasonably believes in
good faith to have been given by a person authorized to do so on behalf of the
Company.  The Bank shall be fully
protected and held harmless by the Company, and shall have no liability, for
acting on any such notice or instruction that the Bank reasonably believes in

and permitted assigns.  The Bank may
assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Note to any
office or affiliate of the Bank or, with the prior written consent of the
Company (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), to any third party;
provided that, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Bank may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent
of the Company.  The Company may not
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this

bankruptcy, insolvency, enforcement proceedings or restructuring with respect
to the Company.  In addition, the Company
shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes and fees payable or determined to
be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of
this Agreement and the Note, and agrees to save the Bank harmless from and
against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in
paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees.

 

Section 6.06.  Governing Law.  THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES).  Each of the Company and the Bank hereby

Note.  Each of the Company and the Bank
hereby consents to the laying of venue in any such suit, action or proceeding

understandings with respect thereto.
