AMENDMENT
NO. 1

TO

EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT

 

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 (this
“Amendment”) to the Employment
Agreement by and between Daniel Canafax (“Executive”)
and ARYX THERAPEUTICS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”) dated January 31,
2007 (the “Prior Agreement”), is entered
into and effective as of December 19, 2008 (the “Effective
Date”).  Capitalized terms
not herein defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Prior
Agreement.

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive previously entered
into the Prior Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive wish to amend the
Prior Agreement by entering into this Amendment to comply with the parties’
intent that the Prior Agreement be interpreted, construed and administered in a
manner that satisfies Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended from time to time, among other things.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the Company and the
Executive, intending to be legally bound, hereby amend the Prior Agreement
effective as of the Effective Date and agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.                            AMENDMENT TO THE PRIOR AGREEMENT

 

Effective as of the Effective Date, the sections of
the Prior Agreement entitled “Termination of Employment,” “Change of Control”
and “Definitions” are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as
follows:

 

Termination of Employment

 

You may terminate your employment with ARYx at any
time, with or without Good Reason (as defined below), simply by notifying
us.  Likewise, ARYx may terminate your
employment at any time and for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause (as
defined below), or advance notice.  As
required by law, this offer is subject to satisfactory proof of your right to
work in the United States.

 

If the Company terminates your employment at any time
for Cause, or if you resign from ARYx without Good Reason, your salary shall
cease on the date of termination, and you will not be entitled to severance
pay, pay in lieu of notice or any other such compensation, other than payment
of accrued salary and such other benefits as expressly required by applicable
law or the terms of any applicable Company benefit plans.  The Option and any other stock awards you
hold shall cease vesting as of the date of termination and those options which
are already vested shall be exercisable only pursuant to the terms of the ARYx
stock option plans and agreements.

 

However, if the Company terminates your employment at
any time without Cause (and other than as a result of death), or you resign
from ARYx for Good Reason (as long as you provide the Company with written
notice specifying the occurrence of the event which forms the basis for your
resignation for Good Reason within ninety (90) days following its initial
existence 

 

1

 

and provide the Company forty-five (45) days to cure
such condition, and your resignation becomes effective within thirty (30) days
following the end of such cure period if the condition is not cured), and such
termination is a “separation from service” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h),
(i) the Company shall make a lump sum severance payment to you in an
amount equal to six (6) months of your then-current base salary, subject
to withholdings and deductions, payable within ten (10) days after the
effective date of the release agreement described below, (ii) if you
timely elect COBRA health insurance coverage, the Company will reimburse your
COBRA premiums for a maximum of either six (6) months following the date
your employment terminates or until you secure health insurance coverage from
another source, whichever occurs sooner (but in no event after you cease to be
eligible for COBRA), and (iii) the vesting of the Option shall immediately
accelerate with respect to the number of shares that would otherwise vest if
you were to remain employed by ARYx over the six (6) month period
following the date of such termination.

 

Change of
Control

 

In the event your employment with the Company is
involuntarily terminated without Cause by the Company or its successor, or you
resign for Good Reason, and in either case such termination is a “separation
from service” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) and such
termination or resignation occurs within thirteen (13) months following a
Change of Control (as defined below), the vesting of the Option shall be
accelerated such that the Option shall become fully vested.  Your receipt of the accelerated vesting of
the Option provided in this paragraph, or the receipt of the severance pay
described above, shall be conditioned on your execution of a release agreement
in the form attached to this letter as Attachment II, such executed
release must be delivered to the Company within twenty-one (21) days after the
termination of your employment with the Company and become effective within
seven (7) days thereafter in order for any of such benefits be provided to
you.

 

Definitions

 

For purposes of this letter agreement:

 

·      “Cause” shall
mean that you have committed, or there has occurred, one or more of the
following:  (a) conviction of, a guilty plea with respect to, or a
plea of nolo  contendere to a

of any state of a crime involving moral turpitude, including, but not limited
to, fraud, theft, embezzlement or any crime that results in or is intended to
result in personal enrichment at the expense of the Company; (b) material
breach of any agreement entered into between you and the Company that impairs
the Company’s interest therein; (c) willful misconduct, or gross neglect
by you of your duties, if such conduct is not cured within seven (7) days

cured); (d) an unauthorized use or disclosure of the Company’s
confidential information or trade secrets; or (e) engagement in any
activity that constitutes a material conflict of interest with the
Company.  Your death or physical or
mental disability shall also constitute Cause for termination under this letter
agreement.  Cause to terminate your
employment based on your physical or mental disability shall exist if any
illness, disability or other incapacity renders you physically or mentally
unable to regularly perform your duties hereunder for a period in excess of
sixty (60) consecutive days or more than ninety (90) 

 

2

 

days in any consecutive
twelve (12) month period.  The Board of
Directors shall make a good faith determination of whether you are physically

consideration of any physical and/or mental health information provided to it
by you.

 

·      “Good Reason”
shall mean any one of the following events which occurs on or after the
commencement of your employment without your consent:  (i) any

extent that the annual base salary of all other officers of the Company is
similarly reduced; (ii) any material diminution of your duties,
responsibilities, or authority; (iii) any requirement that you relocate to

shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) a sale, lease, or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) a
merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; (iii) a
reverse merger involving the Company in which the Company is the surviving

are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form
of securities, cash or otherwise; (iv) an acquisition by any person,
entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
or any comparable successor provisions (excluding any employee benefit plan, or
related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Company or an affiliate of the
Company) of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rules) of
securities of the Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the
combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of directors; or, (v) in
the event that the individuals who, as of the date hereof, are members of the
Board (the “Incumbent Board”), cease for any reason
to constitute at least fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s Board of
Directors.  (If the election, or
nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, of any new member of the
Company’s Board of Directors is approved by a vote of at least fifty percent
(50%) of the Incumbent Board, such new member of the Board of Directors shall
be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board.)  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, for the purposes of this letter agreement and with respect to any
and all clauses of this paragraph, an initial public offering of the securities
of the Company (an “IPO”) or any
transactions or events constituting part of an IPO, or any transaction or
series of transactions principally for bona fide equity financing purposes in
which cash is received by the Company or indebtedness of the Company is
cancelled or converted or a combination thereof shall not be deemed to constitute
or in any way effect a Change of Control.

 

SECTION 2.                            ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

 

2.1          ENTIRE
AGREEMENT AND MODIFICATION.  The Prior Agreement, together with this

extent they related in any way to the subject matter hereof.

LAW.  This Amendment shall be governed
by, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
California without regard to its choice of law principles.

counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together will constitute one and the same instrument.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT NO. 8081149

 

THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”)
dated as of December 31, 2008 (the “Effective Date”)
by and between OXFORD FINANCE CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation with its principal place of business located at 133 North
Fairfax Street, Alexandria, Virginia 22314 (“Lender”)
and ARYx THERAPEUTICS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (“Borrower”), provides the terms on
which Lender shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lender. 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 Lender the outstanding principal amount of the
Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in
accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.1.1       Equipment
Advance.

 

(a)           Availability.   Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, on the Effective Date, Lender shall make
available an advance (the “Equipment Advance”)  in an amount of $1,500,000. The
Equipment Advance may be used to finance Eligible Equipment purchased on or
after January 1, 2007, provided that the Equipment Advance is requested on
the Effective Date. All Eligible Equipment must have been new when purchased by
Borrower, except for such Eligible Equipment that is disclosed in writing to
Lender by Borrower, and that Lender in its sole discretion has agreed to
finance, prior to being financed by Lender. Unless otherwise agreed to by
Lender, not more than twenty percent (20%) of the proceeds of the Equipment
Line shall be used to finance Other Equipment. After repayment, the Equipment
Advance may not be reborrowed.

 

(b)           Repayment.   The Equipment Advance shall
immediately amortize and be payable in 36 equal monthly payments of principal
and interest in accordance with the provisions of the Secured Promissory Note
relating to the Equipment Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all unpaid
principal and interest on the Equipment Advance shall be due on the Equipment
Maturity Date. The Equipment Advance may only be prepaid in accordance with
Section 2.1.1(c), 2.1.1(d) and 2.1.1(e).

 

(c)           Prepayment Upon an Event of Loss.   Borrower shall bear the
risk of any loss, theft, destruction, or damage of or to the Financed
Equipment. If, during the term of this Agreement, any item of Financed
Equipment becomes obsolete or is lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond
repair, rendered permanently unfit for use, or seized by a governmental
authority for any reason for a period ending beyond the Equipment Maturity Date
with respect to such Financed Equipment (an “Event of Loss”), then,
within ten (10) days following such Event of Loss, Borrower shall
(i) pay to Lender on account of the Obligations without penalty or premium
all accrued interest to the date of the prepayment, plus all outstanding
principal owing with respect to the Financed Equipment subject to the Event of
Loss; or (ii) if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at
Borrower’s option, repair or replace any Financed Equipment subject to an Event
of Loss provided the repaired or replaced Financed Equipment is of equal or like
value to the Financed Equipment subject to an Event of Loss and provided
further that Lender has a first priority perfected security interest in such
repaired or replaced Financed Equipment. Any partial prepayment of the
Equipment Advance paid by Borrower on account of an Event of Loss shall be
applied to prepay amounts owing for the Equipment Advance in inverse order of
maturity.

 

(d)           Mandatory Prepayment Upon an
Acceleration.   If the Equipment Advance is accelerated following the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender an amount equal to
the sum of (i) all outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest,
(ii) the Prepayment Fee, (iii) the Final Payment

 

 

and
(iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable,
including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

 

(e)           Permitted Prepayment of Equipment Advances.   So long as no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less
than all, the Equipment Advance advanced by Lender under this Agreement,
provided Borrower (i) delivers written notice to Lender of its election to
prepay the Equipment Advance at least thirty (30) days prior to such
prepayment, and (ii) pays, on the date of such prepayment (A) all
outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest, (B) the Prepayment
Fee, (C) the Final Payment and (D) all other sums, if any, that shall
have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate with
respect to any past due amounts.

 

2.2           Payment of Interest on the Credit
Extension. 

 

(a)           Interest Rate.   Subject
to Section 2.2(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Equipment
Advance shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to the Basic
Rate, determined by Lender as of the Funding Date for the Equipment Advance,
which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with
Section 2.2.(d).

 

(b)           Default Rate.   Immediately upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, the Obligations shall bear interest at
a rate per annum which is five percentage points above the rate that is
otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”).
Payment or acceptance of the
increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.2(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
Lender.

 

(c)           360-Day Year.   Interest
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprising twelve (12) months
consisting of thirty (30) days.

 

(d)           Payments.   Unless
otherwise provided, interest is payable monthly on the Payment Date of each
month. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 noon Eastern
time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business
Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is
due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall
continue to accrue.

 

2.3          Secured
Promissory Note.   The Equipment Advance shall be evidenced by a
Secured Promissory Note in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (each a “Secured Promissory Note”), and shall be repayable as set forth therein.
The Borrower irrevocably authorizes Lender to make or cause to be made, on or
about the Funding Date, or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal
on Lender’s Secured Promissory Note, an appropriate notation on Lender’s
Secured Promissory Note Record reflecting the making of the Equipment Advance or
(as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the
Equipment Advance set forth on Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall be
prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to
Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such
amount on Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Secured
Promissory Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Secured
Promissory Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of a
Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured
Promissory Note, the Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement
Secured Promissory Note in the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.

 

2.4          Fees.   Borrower shall pay to Lender:

 

(a)           Commitment Fee.   A fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee
of $15,000 which Lender has received in total;

 

(b)           Prepayment Fee.   The Prepayment Fee, when due hereunder;

 

(c)           Lender’s Expenses.   All Lender’s 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; and

 

 

(d)           Final Payment.   The Final Payment, when due hereunder.

 

3             CONDITIONS OF LOAN

 

3.1          Conditions
Precedent to Credit Extension.   Lender’s

required item shall be in Lender’s sole discretion.

4             CREATION OF SECURITY
INTEREST

 

4.1          Grant
of Security Interest.   Borrower
hereby grants Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of
the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Lender, the
Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or
arising, and all proceeds and products thereof, excluding any intellectual
property or proceeds from intellectual property resulting from use of the
Collateral. 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 Lender’s lien under this Agreement).

 

If
this Agreement is terminated, Lender’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue
until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and
Obligations relating to the Warrant) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment
in full in cash of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations
and Obligations relating to the Warrant) and at such time as the Lender’s
obligation to make the Credit Extension has terminated, Lender shall, at
Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Lien in the Collateral and all
rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

 

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

 

5             REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES

 

Borrower
represents and warrants as follows:

 

5.1          Due
Organization, Authorization: Power and Authority.   Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries,
if any, are duly existing and in good standing, as Registered Organizations in
their respective jurisdictions of formation and are qualified and licensed to
do business and are in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct
of their business or their ownership of property requires that they be
qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business. In

 

 

connection
with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered to Lender a completed perfection
certificate signed by Borrower (the “Perfection
Certificate”). Borrower
represents and warrants to Lender that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is
that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature
page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is
organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the
Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational
identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the
Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or,
if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing
address (if different than its chief executive office); (e) Borrower (and
each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its
jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any
organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction except that Borrower
reincorporated in Delaware (formerly a California corporation) in 2007; and
(f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate
pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete.
If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one,
Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of such occurrence and provide Lender
with Borrower’s organizational identification number.

 

The
execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any
of Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with,
constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law,
(iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ,
judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental
Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property
or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing,
registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any
Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already
been obtained and are in full force and effect) or are being obtained pursuant
to Section 6.1(b) and except for filings, recordings or registrations
that are required to perfect Lender’s security interests in the Collateral, or
(v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which
Borrower is bound. Borrower is not 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 business.

 

5.2          Collateral.   Borrower has good title to, has rights in,
and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to
grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted
Liens.

 

The
Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a
warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate. None of
the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as
provided in the Perfection Certificate or as Borrower has given Lender notice
pursuant to Section 7.2. Borrower shall give the Secured Party 30 days
prior written notice of any relocation of any Collateral. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower shall not relocate any Collateral to its wholly-owned
subsidiary, ARYx Therapeutics, Ltd. In the event that Borrower, after the date
hereof, intends to store or otherwise deliver any portion of the Collateral to
a bailee, then Borrower will first receive the written consent of Lender and
such bailee must execute and deliver a bailee agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Borrower shall not transfer any of the Collateral to any Subsidiary without
the prior written consent of Lender.

 

5.3          Litigation.   There are no actions or proceedings pending
or, to the knowledge of the Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or
against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving more than One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00).

 

5.4          No
Material Deviation in Financial Statements.   All consolidated financial statements for Borrower
and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to Lender fairly present, in conformity
with GAAP, in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition
and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations. There has not been any
material deterioration in Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the
date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Lender.

 

5.5          Solvency.   The fair salable value of Borrower’s assets
(including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its
liabilities; Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the
transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts
(including trade debts) as they mature.

 

 

5.6          Regulatory
Compliance.   Borrower is not an “investment company” or a
company “controlled” by an “investment company” or a “subsidiary” of an
“investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Borrower is not
engaged in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations T and U of the
Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material
respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding
company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is
defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower
has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. None
of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by
Borrower or any 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
have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all
declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Governmental
Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as
currently conducted.

 

5.7          Subsidiaries;
Investments.   Borrower does not own any stock, partnership
interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments.

 

5.8          Tax Returns
and Payments; Pension Contributions.   Borrower
has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower and its
Subsidiaries have timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes,
assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower. Borrower may defer
payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith
contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly
and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Lender 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”. Borrower is
unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax
years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by
Borrower. Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension,
profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms,
and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not 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, including any liability to the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental
agency.

 

5.9          Use of
Proceeds.   Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit
Extension solely to purchase Eligible Equipment and not for personal, family,
household or agricultural purposes.

 

5.10        Full
Disclosure.   No written representation, warranty or other
statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Lender,
as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made,
taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given
to Lender, 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 (it being recognized that the projections and
forecasts provided by Borrower 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 or
forecasted results).

 

6             AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

 

Borrower
shall do all of the following:

 

6.1          Government
Compliance.

 

(a)           Maintain its and all its
Subsidiaries’ legal existence and good standing in their respective jurisdictions

failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on Borrower’s business or operations. Borrower shall comply, and have
each Subsidiary comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it
is subject, the noncompliance with which could have a material adverse effect on
Borrower’s business.

 

 

(b)           Obtain all of the Governmental
Approvals necessary for the performance by Borrower of its obligations under
the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the grant of a security interest
to Lender in all of its property. Borrower shall promptly provide copies of any
such obtained Governmental Approvals to Lender.

 

6.2          Financial
Statements, Reports, Certificates.

 

(a)           Deliver to Lender: (i) as soon

Responsible Officer and in a form acceptable to Lender; (ii) as soon as
available, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the last day

and Exchange Commission or a link thereto on Borrower’s or another website on
the Internet; (vi) a prompt report of any legal actions pending or
threatened against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that could result in
damages or costs to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) or more; and (vii) other financial information
reasonably requested by Lender.

 

(b)           Within forty five days (45) days
after the last day of each quarter, deliver to Lender with the quarterly

Responsible Officer.

 

6.3          Taxes;

Section 5.8 hereof) and shall deliver to Lender, on demand, appropriate
certificates attesting to such payments, and pay all amounts necessary to fund
all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in
accordance with their terms.

 

6.4          Insurance.   Keep its business and the Collateral insured
for risks and in amounts standard for companies in Borrower’s industry and
location and as Lender may reasonably request. Insurance policies shall be in a
form, with companies, and in amounts that are reasonably satisfactory to
Lender. All property policies shall have a lender’s loss payable endorsement
showing Lender as lender loss payee and waive subrogation against Lender, and
all liability policies shall show, or have endorsements showing, Lender, as an
additional insured. All policies (or the loss payable and additional insured
endorsements) shall provide that the Lender shall receive at least twenty (20)
days notice before canceling, amending, or declining to renew its policy. At
Lender’s request, Borrower shall deliver certified copies of policies and
evidence of all premium payments. Proceeds payable under any policy shall, at
Lender’s option, be payable to Lender on account of the Obligations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) so long as no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option of applying the proceeds of
any casualty policy up to $50,000 with respect to any loss, but not exceeding
$100,000, in the aggregate for all losses under all casualty policies in any
one year, toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property;
provided that any such replaced or repaired property (i) shall be of equal
or like value as the replaced or repaired Collateral and (ii) shall be
deemed Collateral in which Lender has been granted a first priority security
interest, and (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all proceeds payable under such casualty policy shall, at the
option of Lender, be payable to Lender on account of the Obligations. If Borrower
fails to obtain insurance as required under this Section 6.5 or to pay any
amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons and Lender,
Lender may make all or part of such payment or obtain such insurance policies
required in this Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies
Lender deems prudent.

 

6.5          Litigation
Cooperation.   From the date hereof and continuing through the termination of this Agreement,
make available to Lender, without expense to Lender, Borrower and its officers,
employees and agents and Borrower’s books and records, to the extent that
Lender may deem them reasonably necessary to prosecute or defend any
third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against Lender with respect to
any Collateral or relating to Borrower.

 

 

6.6          Further
Assurances.   Execute any further instruments and take further action as Lender reasonably
requests to perfect or continue Lender’s Lien in the Collateral or to effect
the purposes of this Agreement.

 

6.7          Notices
of Litigation and Default.   Borrower
will give prompt written notice to Lender of any litigation or governmental
proceedings pending or threatened (in writing) against Borrower which would
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect with respect to
Borrower. Without limiting or contradicting any other more specific provision
of this Agreement, promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business
Days) upon Borrower becoming aware of the existence of any Event of Default or
event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would
constitute an Event of Default, Borrower shall give written notice to Lender of
such occurrence, which such notice shall include a reasonably detailed
description of such Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice
or passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default.

 

7             NEGATIVE COVENANTS

to be unreasonably withheld or delayed):

 

7.1          Dispositions.   Convey, sell, lease, transfer, assign, or

Borrower immediately prior to the first such transaction own less than 51% of
the voting stock of Borrower immediately after giving effect to such transaction

equity securities in a public offering or to venture capital investors so long
as Borrower identifies to Lender the venture capital investors prior to the
closing of the transaction). Borrower shall not, without at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice to Lender: (1) add any new offices or business
locations, including warehouses which would contain any of the Collateral
(2) change its jurisdiction of organization, (3) change its
organizational structure or type, (4) change its legal name, or
(5) change any organizational number (if any) assigned by its jurisdiction

7.3          Mergers
or Acquisitions.   Merge or consolidate, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to merge or consolidate,
with any other Person, or acquire, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to
acquire, all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another

transactions is less than $3,000,000 in any fiscal year of Borrower,
(ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would exist
after giving effect to such transactions, and (iii) Borrower is 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

partial or complete termination of, or permit the occurrence of any other event
with respect to, any present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation

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,
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

(a) 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

while of any of the conditions described in clause (a) exist and/or until
any Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);

 

8.6          Other
Agreements.   There is a default in any agreement to which Borrower is a party with a
third party or parties resulting in a right by such third party or parties,
whether or not exercised, to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness in an
amount in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or that could have

warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made; or

 

8.9          Subordinated
Debt.   A
default or breach occurs under any agreement between Borrower and any creditor
of Borrower that signed a subordination, intercreditor, or other similar
agreement with Lender, or any creditor that has signed such an agreement with
Lender breaches any terms of such agreement.

 

9             RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

 

9.1          Rights
and Remedies.   While an Event of Default occurs and continues Lender 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
Lender);

 

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

 

(c)           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 assemble the Collateral if Lender
requests and make it available as Lender designates. Lender 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 Lender a license to enter and occupy any of its
premises, without charge, to exercise any of Lender’s rights or remedies;

 

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

 

(e)           ship, reclaim, recover, store,
finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the
Collateral;

 

(f)            demand and receive possession of a
copy of Borrower’s Books; and

 

(g)           exercise all rights and remedies
available to Lender 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 Lender as its lawful
attorney-in-fact, exercisable only upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any
checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) make, settle, and adjust
all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (c) 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 (d) transfer the Collateral into the
name of Lender or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints
Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents
necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Lender’s security interest
in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until
all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and Obligations
relating to the Warrant) have been satisfied in full and Lender are under no
further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Lender’s foregoing
appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Lender’s rights and
powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other
than inchoate indemnity obligations and Obligations relating to the Warrant)
have been fully repaid and performed and Lender’s obligation to provide Credit
Extensions terminates.

 

 

9.3          Protective
Payments.   If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance
called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to
pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, Lender may obtain such insurance or make such payment,
and all amounts so paid by Lender are Lender’s Expenses and immediately due and
payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by
the Collateral. Lender will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with
notice of Lender obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within
a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Lender are deemed an agreement to
make similar payments in the future or Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.4          Application
of Payments and Proceeds.   Borrower shall have no right to specify the
order or the accounts to which Lender shall allocate or apply any payments
required to be made by Borrower to Lender or otherwise received by Lender under
this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified
elsewhere in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lender may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower
account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any disposition
of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as the Lender
shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower
or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to
Lender for any deficiency. If Lender, 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, Lender 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 Lender of cash therefor.

 

9.5          Liability
for Collateral.   So long as Lender complies with reasonable
banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession
or under the control of Lender, Lender 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 bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the
Collateral.

 

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

 

9.7          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 Lender
on which Borrower is liable.

11           CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND
JURY TRIAL WAIVER

 

Virginia
law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of

OXFORD FINANCE CORPORATION (the “LENDER”) 

AND

ARYX THERAPEUTICS, INC. (the “BORROWER”)

 

Borrower
shall cause the composition and mix of Equipment to conform to and meet the
following concentration requirements (hereinafter “Concentration Requirement”)

set forth below. Borrower herein represents and warrants that it shall maintain
each such Equipment Class and its respective Concentration Requirement,

variance from the Concentration Requirement (“Concentration Variance”). If
Lender authorizes the Concentration Variance then, within 120 days of the date
such Concentration Variance occurs, Borrower will do one of the following (a
“Concentration Correction”):

 

1.     Grant to Lender a security interest in
additional equipment satisfactory to Lender, not previously subject to Lender’s
security interest (collectively, the “Additional Equipment”), in sufficent type

Concentration Variance is eliminated. The Additional Equipment shall be subject
to all of the terms and conditions of the Loan and Security Agreement,
including without limitation, Borrower’s representations, warranties, and
covenants, which shall be deemed remade by Borrower upon its grant of a
security interest in the Additional Equipment.

 

2.     Pay Lender cash in an amount equal to the
Concentration Variance to hold as cash collateral until the Note is fully
repaid. Borrower hereby grants Lender a security interest in such cash
collateral and all proceeds and products thereof. Borrower agrees that such
cash collateral held by Lender: (a) shall not bear interest, (b) may
be commingled with other funds of Lender, and (c) may be applied by Lender
to amounts owing by Borrower upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default under the Loan and Security Agreement or the Note.

PROMISSORY NOTE

To Loan and Security Agreement No. 8081149

 

December 31, 2008

 

FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, ARYx Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, located
at the address stated below (“Maker”)  promises
to pay to the order of Oxford Finance
Corporation or any subsequent holder hereof (each, a “Payee”)  at its office
located at 133 N. Fairfax Street, Alexandria,
VA 22314 or at such other place as Payee or the holder hereof may
designate, the principal sum of One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000.00), with interest on the unpaid principal
balance, from the date hereof through and including the dates of payment, at a
fixed interest rate of eleven and fifty one-hundreths percent (11.50%) per
annum, in thirty-six (36) consecutive monthly installments of principal and
interest, each a “Periodic Installment” as
follows:

 

	
  Periodic
 Installment

  	
   

  	
  Amount

  
	
  1- 36

  	
   

  	
  $

  	
  32,976.01

  

 

and
a final installment which shall be in the amount of the total outstanding
principal and interest, if any. The first Periodic Installment shall be due and
payable on February 1, 2009 and the following Periodic Installments and
the final installment shall be due and payable on the first day of each
succeeding month (each, a “Payment Date”) beginning on March 1, 2009.
Such installments have been calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months. Each payment may, at the option of the Payee, be calculated and
applied on an assumption that such payment would be made on its due date. Maker
agrees to pay any initial partial month interest payment from the date of this Note to the first day of the following month (“Interim
Interest”). 

(**Note:  Oxford
will invoice Debtor for the Interim Interest)

 

On the scheduled due date of the final installment
or, if earlier, on the date of any prepayment of
the entire outstanding balance of principal and accrued interest, the Maker
shall also pay to Payee a final payment (“Final Payment”) equal to $20,000.00.
For the avoidance of doubt, this Final Payment is a fixed payment that is in
addition to, and not in lieu of: a) all amounts of principal and interest due
and owing from the Maker; and b) the prepayment premium due to Payee that is
calculated as a percentage of the outstanding principal and further described
below in this promissory note. The amount of the Final Payment shall not be
adjusted on account of any such prepayment of principal and interest.

 

Defined
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the
Security Agreement.

 

The
acceptance by Payee of any payment which is less than payment in full of all
amounts due and owing at such time shall not constitute a waiver of Payee’s
right to receive payment in full at such time or at any prior or subsequent
time.

 

The
Maker hereby expressly authorizes the Payee to insert the date value is
actually given in the blank space on the face hereof and on all related
documents pertaining hereto.

 

This
Note is secured by a Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December         ,
2008 between Maker and Payee (hereinafter called the “Security Agreement” and
the Security Agreement, this Note and any other document evidencing or securing
this loan is hereinafter called a “Debt Document”).

 

Time
is of the essence hereof. If any installment or any other sum due under this
Note or the Security Agreement is not received when due, the Maker agrees to
pay, in addition to the amount of each such installment or other sum, a late
payment charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of said installment or other
sum, but not exceeding any lawful maximum. If (i) Maker fails to make
payment of any amount due hereunder; or (ii) Maker is in default under, or
fails to perform under any term or condition contained in the Security Agreement,
then the entire principal sum remaining unpaid, together with all accrued
interest thereon and any other sum payable (including, without limitation, the
prepayment premium set forth hereinafter) under this Note or the Security
Agreement, at the election of Payee, shall immediately become due and payable,
with interest thereon at the lesser of

 

 

1

 

eighteen
percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate not prohibited by applicable law
from the date of such accelerated maturity until paid (both before and after
any judgment).

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Security Agreement, Maker
may prepay in full, but not in part, its Obligations hereunder by payment of
the entire Obligations, plus an additional sum as a prepayment premium which
shall be equal to the following percentages of the remaining principal balance
for the indicated period:

 

(i)            for a prepayment made from the Funding Date
but before the nineteenth month from the Funding Date of the Equipment Advance,
five percent (5.0%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Equipment
Advance prepaid;

 

(ii)           for a prepayment made on or after the nineteenth month but before the
twenty fourth month after the Funding Date of the Equipment Advance, three
percent (3.0%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Advance
prepaid; or

 

(iii)          for a prepayment made on or after the twenty fourth month until the
Equipment Maturity Date, two percent (2.0%) of the outstanding principal amount
of the Equipment Advance prepaid.

 

The
Maker and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors or any others (each such person,
other than the Maker, an “Obligor”)  who may at any time become liable for the
payment hereof jointly and severally consent hereby to any and all extensions
of time, renewals, waivers or modifications of, and all substitutions or
releases of, security or of any party primarily or secondarily liable on this
Note or the Security Agreement or any term and provision of either, which may
be made, granted or consented to by Payee, and agree that suit may be brought
and maintained against any one or more of them, at the election of Payee
without joinder of any other as a party thereto, and that Payee shall not be
required first to foreclose, proceed against, or exhaust any security hereof in
order to enforce payment of this Note. The Maker and each Obligor hereby waives
presentment, demand for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of
protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices in connection herewith, as
well as filing of suit (if permitted by law) and diligence in collecting this
Note or enforcing any of the security hereof, and agrees to pay (if and to the
extent permitted by law) all expenses incurred in collection, including Payee’s
reasonable attorneys’ fees.

 

Maker
and Payee intend to strictly comply with all applicable federal and Virginia
laws, including applicable usury laws (or the usury laws of any jurisdiction
whose usury laws are deemed to apply to the Note or any other Debt Document
despite the intention and desire of the parties to apply the usury laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia). Accordingly, the provisions of this paragraph shall
govern and control over every other provision of this Note or any other Debt
Document which conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section, even if such
provision declares that it controls. As used in this paragraph, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees,
benefits or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any
non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense or as compensation
for something other than the use, forbearance or detention of money and not as
interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved,
charged or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in
equal parts during the full term of the obligations. In no event shall Maker or
any other person be obligated to pay, or Payee have any right or privilege to
reserve, receive or retain, (a) any interest in excess of the maximum
amount of non-usurious interest permitted under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia or the applicable laws (if any) of the United States or of any other
state, or (b) total interest in excess of the amount which Payee could
lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged had the
interest been calculated for the full term of the obligations. On each day, if any,
that the interest rate (the “Stated Rate”) called for under
this Note or any other Debt Document exceeds the maximum non-usurious rate, the
rate at which interest shall accrue shall automatically be fixed by operation
of this sentence at the maximum non-usurious rate for that day. Thereafter,
interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again
exceeds the maximum non-usurious rate, in which case, the provisions of the
immediately preceding sentence shall again automatically operate to limit the
interest accrual rate to the maximum non-usurious rate. The daily interest
rates to be used in calculating interest at the maximum non-usurious rate shall
be determined by dividing the applicable maximum non-usurious rate by the number
of days in the calendar year for which such calculation is being made. None of
the terms and provisions contained in this Note or in any other Debt Document
which directly or indirectly relate to interest shall ever be construed without
reference to this paragraph, or be construed to create a contract to pay for
the use, forbearance or detention of money at an interest rate in excess of the
maximum non-usurious rate. If the term of any obligation is shortened by reason
of acceleration of maturity as a result of any Default or by any other cause,
or by reason of any required or permitted prepayment, and if for that (or any
other) reason Payee at any time,

 

2

 

including
but not limited to, the
stated maturity, is owed or receives (and/or has received) interest in excess
of interest calculated at the maximum non-usurious rate, then and in any such
event all of any such excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the
date of such acceleration, prepayment or other event which produces the excess,
and, if such excess interest has been paid to Payee, it shall be credited pro tanto against the then-outstanding principal balance of Maker’s obligations
to Payee, effective as of the date or dates when the event occurs which causes
it to be excess interest, until such excess is exhausted or all of such
principal has been fully paid and satisfied, whichever occurs first, and any
remaining balance of such excess shall be promptly refunded to its payor.

 

THE MAKER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY
TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, THIS NOTE, ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN MAKER
AND PAYEE RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED
TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN MAKER
AND PAYEE. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY
AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW
AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.) THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT
BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY
SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS NOTE, ANY
RELATED DOCUMENTS, OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS
TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS NOTE MAY BE
FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

 

This
Note and the Security Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the Maker
and Payee with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
understandings, agreements and representations, express or implied.

 

No
variation or modification of this Note, or any waiver of any of its provisions
or conditions, shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized
representative of Maker and Payee. Any such waiver, consent, modification or
change shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose given.

 

Any
provision in this Note or the Security Agreement which is in conflict with any
statute, law or applicable rule shall be deemed omitted, modified or
altered to conform thereto.

 

Upon
receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Payee as to the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Note or any Debt Document which is not of
public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note or other Debt
Document, Maker will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other Debt
Document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

 

It
is understood and agreed that this Note and all of the Debt Documents were
negotiated and have been or will be delivered to Payee in the Commonwealth of
Virginia, which State the parties agree has a substantial relationship to the
parties and to the underlying transactions embodied by this Note and the Debt
Documents. Maker agrees to furnish to Payee at Payee’s office in Alexandria,
VA, all further instruments, certifications and documents to be furnished
hereunder. The parties also agree that if collateral is pledged to secure the
debt evidenced by this Note, that the state or states in which such collateral
is located each have a substantial relationship to the parties and to the
underlying transaction embodied by this Note and the Debt Documents.

 

MAKER
AGREES THAT THE PAYEE OF THIS NOTE SHALL HAVE THE OPTION BY WHICH STATE LAWS
THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED: (A) THE LAWS OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA; OR (B) IF COLLATERAL HAS BEEN PLEDGED TO SECURE
THE DEBT EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE, THEN BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OR STATES WHERE
THE COLLATERAL IS LOCATED, AT PAYEE’S OPTION. THIS CHOICE OF STATE LAWS IS
EXCLUSIVE TO THE PAYEE OF THIS NOTE. MAKER SHALL NOT HAVE ANY OPTION TO

 

3

 

CHOOSE
THE LAWS BY WHICH THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED. MAKER AND GUARANTORS HEREBY
CONSENT TO THE EXERCISE OF JURISDICTION OVER IT BY ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN
VIRGINIA OR ANY VIRGINIA COURT SELECTED BY PAYEE, FOR THE PURPOSES OF ANY AND
ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE NOTE, THE LOAN
AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER DOCUMENTS. MAKER AND GUARANTORS IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY
SUCH COURT, ANY CLAIM BASED ON THE CONSOLIDATION OF PROCEEDINGS IN SUCH COURTS
IN WHICH PROPER VENUE MAY LIE IN DIVERGENT JURISDICTIONS, AND ANY CLAIM
THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM. MAKER AND GUARANTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE, THE OTHER DOCUMENTS
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
