endorsed to provide that: (i) Lender shall be loss payee with respect to the property insurance
described in subsection (1) of the prior paragraph, and Lender shall be an additional insured with
respect to the liability insurance described in subsection (2) of the prior paragraph; and (ii) The
insurers thereunder waive all rights of subrogation against Lender, any right of setoff and
counterclaim and any other right to deduction due to outstanding premiums, whether by attachment or
otherwise; and (iii) Such insurance shall be primary without right of contribution of any other
insurance carried by or on behalf of Lender; and (iv) If such insurance is canceled for any reason
whatsoever, including nonpayment of premium, or any substantial change is made in the coverage that
affects the interests of Lender, such cancellation or change shall not be effective as to Lender
until thirty (30) days after receipt by Lender of written notice sent by registered mail from such
insurer of such cancellation or change; providing, however, that such thirty (30) day period shall
be reduced to ten (10) days in the case where cancellation results from the nonpayment of premiums.
Borrower, irrevocably, appoints Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact)
for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such policies, endorsing the name of
Borrower on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies
and for making

14

 

all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies, and such appointment will be immediately effective upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder.

On or before the initial funding by Lender hereunder, and at each policy anniversary date, Borrower
shall arrange to furnish Lender with appropriate Certificates of Insurance. Such Certificates of
Insurance shall be executed by each insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer, and
shall identify insurers, the type of insurance, the insurance limits and the policy term and shall
specifically list the special endorsements (i) through (v) above.

In case of the failure to procure or maintain such insurance, Lender shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to obtain such insurance and any premium paid by Lender shall be immediately due
and payable by Borrower to Lender. The maintenance of any policy or policies of insurance pursuant
to this Section shall not limit any obligation or liability of Borrower pursuant to any other
Sections or provisions of this Loan Agreement.

5.7 Charges on Collateral. Borrower shall not permit any material Charges to arise, or to
remain, and Borrower shall pay promptly when due, and discharge, such Charges. In the event
Borrower, at any time or times hereafter, shall fail to pay such Charges when due or to obtain such
discharges, Borrower shall so advise Lender thereof in writing. Lender may, without waiving or
releasing any obligation or liability of Borrower hereunder or Event of Default, in its sole and
absolute discretion, at any time or times thereafter, make such payment, or any part thereof, or
obtain such discharge and take any other action with respect thereto which Lender deems advisable.
All sums so paid by Lender and any expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs,
expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand.

5.8 UCC Filing Authorization. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender and its counsel and other
representatives to file, at any time on or after the date hereof, Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements and continuation statements, and amendments to financing statements, in any
jurisdictions and with any filing offices as Lender may determine, in its Permitted Discretion, are
necessary or advisable to perfect the security interests granted to Lender hereunder and under the
Other Agreements. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as
described herein or therein or may contain an indication or description of Collateral that
describes such property in any other manner as Lender may determine is necessary or advisable to
ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral.

5.9 Accounts. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to
Section 7.4 hereof, Borrower may settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or
dispute with any Account Debtor. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lender may, at its option, notify Borrower that Lender intends to have the exclusive
right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with Account
Debtors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances and on and after such notice from Lender to
Borrower, Lender shall have such exclusive right.

upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Borrower to be reasonable at the time made.
Except as disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the date hereof, there are no facts known to
Borrower that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

delivered; (c) if Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep or observe any term, provision,
condition or covenant contained in this Agreement, the Warrants or in the Other Agreements, which

Liabilities, and, in the case of (i) any covenant contained in Section 5.6,5.7,6.1,7.1,7.3 or 7.4

notice of lien (other than a Permitted Lien) or Charges are filed of record with respect to any of
the Collateral by any Person; G) if any Change of Control shall occur; (k) if any money judgment,
writ or warrant of attachment or similar process (if not adequately covered by insurance as to
which a solvent and unaffiliated insurance company has acknowledged coverage) involving an amount
of $250,000 or more shall be entered or filed against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of
their respective assets and the same is not released, discharged, bonded against or stayed pending
appeal within forty-five (45) days after it first arises; (I) this Loan Agreement or any Other
Agreement shall for any reason fail or cease to be valid and binding on, or enforceable in any
material respect against, Borrower or any other party thereto (other than Lender) or Borrower shall
so assert; (m) this Loan · Agreement or any Other Agreement shall for any reason cease to be in full
force and effect or cease to create a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on any

security interest (subject to Permitted Liens); or (n) if Borrower is in default (i) in the payment
of any indebtedness to Lender under

19

 

any other agreement beyond any period of grace applicable thereto, or (ii) in the payment of any
debt for borrowed money or for the deferred purchase price of property or services to any Person
other than Lender in either case in excess of $250,000 or any other event shall occur or condition
shall exist under any agreement or instrument relating to any such debt and such default, condition
or event gives the holders of such debt (or any agent or trustee on their behalf) the then current
right to accelerate such indebtedness. Borrower shall provide written notice of any events or
circumstances which would give rise to a Default under this Section 8.1 promptly (but in no event
more than one (1) Business Day) after becoming aware of such events or circumstances. Failure of
Borrower to give such notice promptly shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

8.2 Lender’s Rights and Remedies. Upon an Event of Default under Section 8.1(e), without
notice by Lender to, or demand by Lender of, Borrower, all of Borrower’s Liabilities shall be
automatically accelerated and shall be due and payable forthwith and the Revolving Commitment and
any other commitments to provide any financing hereunder shall be automatically terminated, and
upon and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, without notice by Lender to, or
demand by Lender of, Borrower, Lender may accelerate all of Borrower’s Liabilities and same shall
be due and payable forthwith and/or Lender may terminate the Revolving Commitments and any other
commitments to provide any financing hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion: (a) exercise any one or more of
the rights and remedies accruing to a Lender under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable
law of the relevant state or states or other applicable jurisdiction, and in equity, and under this
Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements; (b) enter, with or without process of law and without
breach of the peace, any premises where the Collateral or the books and records of Borrower related
thereto is or may be located, and without charge or liability to Lender therefor seize and remove
the Collateral (and copies of Borrower’s books and records relating to the Collateral) from said
premises and/or remain upon said premises and use the same (together with said books and records)
for the purpose of collecting, preparing and disposing of the Collateral; (c) sell, lease, license
or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof by one or more contracts at one or more
public or private sales for cash or credit, provided, however, that Borrower shall be credited with
the net proceeds of such sale(s) only when such proceeds are actually received by Lender; and (d)
require Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place or places to
be designated by Lender which is reasonably convenient to Lender and Borrower.

In addition, at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, in its
discretion, enforce the rights of Borrower against any Account Debtor, secondary obligor or other
obligor in respect of any of the Accounts. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at
any time or times that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, in its
discretion, at such time or times (1) notify any or all Account Debtors, secondary obligors or
other obligors in respect thereof that the Accounts have been assigned to Lender and that Lender
has a security interest therein and Lender may direct any or all accounts debtors, secondary
obligors and other obligors to make payment of Accounts directly to Lender, (2) extend the time of
payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and
upon any terms or conditions, any and all Accounts or other obligations included in the Collateral
and thereby discharge or release the account debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in
respect thereof without affecting any of Borrower’s Liabilities, (3) demand, collect or enforce
payment of any Accounts or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Lender shall
not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of
its agents or attorneys with respect thereto and (4) take whatever other action Lender may deem
necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests. At any time that an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, at Lender’s request, all invoices and statements sent to any
account debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned to
Lender and are payable directly and only to Lender and Borrower shall deliver to Lender such
originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services
giving rise to any Accounts as Lender may require.

All of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements are
cumulative and non-exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by Lender of one or more of its rights
or remedies shall not be deemed an election, nor bar Lender from subsequent exercise or partial
exercise of any other rights or remedies. Lender agrees to give notice of any sale to Borrower at
least ten (10) days prior to any public sale or at least ten (10) days before the time after which
any private sale may be held. Borrower agrees that Lender may purchase any such Collateral
(including by way of credit bid), and may postpone or adjourn any such sale from time to time by an
announcement at the time and place of sale or by announcement at the time and place of such
postponed or adjourned sale, without being required to give a new notice of sale. Borrower agrees
that Lender has no obligation to preserve rights against prior parties to the Collateral.

20

 

8.3 Power of Attorney. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, without limiting Lender’s other rights and remedies, Borrower grants to Lender an
irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest (in addition to such other powers of
attorney granted to Lender elsewhere in this Loan Agreement), authorizing and permitting Lender at
any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or without notice to Borrower, and at
Borrower’s expense, execute on behalf of Borrower any Additional Documentation, or such other
instruments or documents as may be reasonably necessary in order to exercise a right of Borrower or
Lender, including but not limited to the execution of any proof of claim in bankruptcy, any notice
of lien, claim of mechanic’s or other lien, or assignment or satisfaction of mechanic’s or other

9.2 Severability. Should any provision of this Loan Agreement be held by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such defect shall not affect the remainder of
this Loan Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect.

9.3 Integration; Modification. This Loan Agreement, the Warrants, the Other Agreements and
such other written agreements, documents and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith
or pursuant hereto, including without limitation the Stockholders Agreements and joinders thereto
(collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) are the final, entire and complete agreement between
Borrower and Lender regarding the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous
negotiations and oral representations and agreements regarding such subject matter, all of which
are merged and integrated in the Transaction Documents. There are no oral understandings,
representations or agreements between the parties regarding such subject matter which are not set
forth in the Transaction Documents. If any provision contained in this Loan Agreement is in
conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in the Other Agreements, the provision contained
in this Loan Agreement shall govern and control, it being the intent of the parties, however, that
the terms of each of the Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements shall be remain in full force and
effect. This Loan Agreement, the Warrants and the Other Agreements may not be modified, altered or
amended except by an agreement in writing signed by Borrower and Lender.

9.4 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance by Borrower of each and
every obligation under this Agreement.

9.5 Attorneys Fees and Other Costs. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and all
filing, recording, search, title insurance, appraisal, audit, and other reasonable costs incurred
by Lender in connection with any amendment or waiver to this Loan Agreement or any Other Agreement;
seeking to enforce any of its rights hereunder against Borrower or the Collateral, including in
bankruptcy; enforcing Lender’s security interest in the Collateral, and representing Lender in all
such matters. Borrower shall also pay Lender’s standard charges for returned checks in effect from
time to time. Lender acknowledges that Borrower has heretofore paid to Lender a due diligence fee
in the amount of $25,000 to cover all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the
preparation and negotiation of, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by, this Loan
Agreement, and Borrower has no obligation to reimburse Lender therefor to the extent such costs and
expenses exceed the amount of such fee. Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall survive termination
of this Agreement.

9.6 Benefit of Agreement; Assignment. The provisions of this Loan Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs, beneficiaries
and representatives of Borrower and

21

 

Lender; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this
Loan Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender and Lender may not, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, assign or transfer any of its rights under this Loan
Agreement to any Person other than an Eligible Assignee without the prior written consent of
Borrower (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld), and any prohibited assignment shall be
void. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower hereby consents to Lender’s sale,
assignment, transfer or other disposition of this Loan Agreement, the Warrants or the Other
Agreements, or of any portion thereof, including without limitation Lender’s rights, titles,
interests, remedies, powers and/or duties to any Eligible Assignee at any time and from time to
time hereafter and to any Person upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default (provided that, in the case of the Warrant or any of Lender’s rights, titles, interests,
remedies, powers and/or duties thereunder, Lender complies with any additional transfer
restrictions contained in the Warrant or the Stockholder Agreements). Borrower shall establish and
maintain a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which it agrees to register by book
entry Lender’s and each initial and subsequent assignee’s interest in each Loan, and in the right
to receive any payments hereunder and any assignment of any such interest. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Loan Agreement, the Loans (including the notes in
respect of such Loans) are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of Lender and
its assignees in and to such Loans shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the
Register. In no event is any note to be considered a bearer instrument or bearer obligation. This
Section shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form”
within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any
related regulations (or any successor provisions of the Code or such regulations).

9.7 Joint and Several Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one Person, their
liability shall be joint and several, and the compromise of any claim with, or the release of, any
Borrower shall not constitute a compromise with, or a release of, any other Borrower.

9.8 Paragraph Headings. Paragraph headings are only used in this Loan Agreement for
convenience. The term “including”, whenever used in this Loan Agreement, shall mean “including but
not limited to”. This Loan Agreement has been fully reviewed and negotiated between the parties and
no uncertainty or ambiguity in any term or provision of this Loan Agreement shall be construed
strictly against Lender or Borrower under any rule of construction or otherwise.

9.9 Interest Laws. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or any Other Document, Borrower shall not be required to pay, and Lender shall not be
permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted
by applicable law (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any Other
Agreement, then in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2)
Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that Lender may
have received hereunder or under any Other Agreement shall be, at such Lender’s option, (a) applied
as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of Borrower’s Liabilities or accrued and
unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law), (b) refunded to the payor
thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein or
in any Other Agreement shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time
to time under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the Other Agreements
shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5)
Borrower shall not have any action against Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or
collection of any Excess Interest.

9.10 No Implied Waivers. Lender’s failure at any time or times hereafter to exercise any
rights or remedies or to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Loan
Agreement shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict
compliance and performance therewith and all rights and remedies shall continue in full force and
effect until all of Borrower’s Liabilities have been paid in full (other than contingent
obligations with respect to which no claims have been made) and termination of the Revolving
Commitment and all other commitments of Lender to make Loans hereunder. Any suspension or waiver by
Lender of an Event of Default by Borrower under this Loan Agreement, the Warrants or the Other
Agreements shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default by Borrower under this
Loan Agreement, the Warrants or the Other Agreements, whether the same is prior or subsequent
thereto and whether of the same or of a different type. No waiver by Lender of any Event of Default
or of any of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of Borrower
contained in this Loan Agreement, the Warrants or the Other Agreements shall be effective unless
specifically waived by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of Lender.

22

 

9.11 Acceptance by Lender. This Loan Agreement become effective upon execution and
delivery hereof by Borrower and acceptance by Lender, in writing. If so accepted by Lender, this
Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements shall be deemed to have been made at Lender’s principal
place of business as set forth above.

9.12 LAW AND VENUE. THIS LOAN AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. BORROWER CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE
JURISDICTION OF ANY LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE COUNTY OF COOK, STATE OF
ILLINOIS. BORROWER WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRANSFER OR CHANGE THE VENUE OF ANY LITIGATION
BROUGHT AGAINST BORROWER BY LENDER OR TO ASSERT THAT ANY ACTION INSTITUTED BY LENDER OR BORROWER IN
SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER VENUE OR SUCH ACTION SHOULD BE TRANSFERRED TO A MORE CONVENIENT FORUM.

9.13 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. BORROWER AND LENDER EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, THIS LOAN AGREEMENT
WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.

9.14 Confidentiality. Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all information
received from Borrower related to its business, other than any such information that is available
to Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower (“Confidential Information”),
except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to Lender’s and its Affiliates’
directors, officers, managers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of
the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the
extent required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection
with the exercise or enforcement by Lender of any of its rights or remedies under the Transaction
Documents, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of
this Section 9.14, to any assignee or any prospective assignee of any of Lender’s rights or
obligations under the Transaction Documents, (f) with the consent of Borrower or (g) to the extent
such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section 9.14 or (ii) becomes available to Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than Borrower. Lender’s obligations hereunder shall survive termination of this Loan
Agreement for a period of 1 year.

Exhibit 10.10

AMENDMENT TO

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

     This Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”) is entered into and is
effective this 20th day of March, 2007 by and between BlueCrest Venture Finance Master Fund Limited
(“Lender”), as assignee of Ritchie Capital Finance, LLC (“Original Lender”) and Ritchie Debt
Acquisition Fund, Ltd. (“Initial Assignee”), and SPS Commerce, Inc. (“Borrower”).

RECITALS

      A. Original Lender provided one or more credit facilities or arrangements to
Borrower pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement by and between Original Lender and
Borrower, dated as of February 3, 2006 (the “Loan Agreement”), which Loan Agreement had been
assigned by Original Lender to Original Assignee, as of May 5, 2006, and which was then assigned to
Lender as of December 18, 2006.

     B. In connection with the Loan Agreement, Borrower has granted to Lender a first priority
security interest in the Collateral. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

     C. Lender and Borrower now desire to enter into an addition equipment loan transaction (the
“Additional Equipment Loan”) which shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan
Agreement, except as modified hereby, and which will be secured by the Collateral.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each of the parties hereto, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Additional Equipment Loan.

     (a) Section 2.1 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended to add a new section (d) as follows:

(d) Additional Equipment Loan. Subject to Section 2.5, Lender shall
loan to Borrower from time to time on or prior to December 31, 2007, one or
more equipment loans (the “Additional Equipment Loan”) pursuant to the
terms and conditions hereof, in an aggregate amount not to exceed One
Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000.00), the proceeds of
which shall be used to purchase Equipment. This is not a revolving line of
credit and Borrower may not repay and re-borrow the amounts advanced or to
be advanced under this Section 2.1 (d). Each Additional Equipment Loan
shall be made on notice (substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and
setting forth a schedule describing in detail the Equipment against which
an advance is to be made hereunder) given by Borrower to Lender no later
than 9:00 a.m. (prevailing Chicago time) not less than three (3) Business
Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing. Each Additional
Equipment Loan shall be repaid in thirty-six (36) equal monthly scheduled
installments of principal and interest (paid in arrears), such payments to
be made on the first Business Day of each month commencing on the first
Business Day of the month following the date of such Additional Equipment
Loan borrowing (the “Initial Additional Equipment Loan Payment Date”);
provided, however, that if the Initial Additional Equipment Loan Payment
Date is not at least 15 days after the date the Additional

1

 

Equipment Loan is made, such payments shall commence on the first Business
Day of the immediately succeeding month and Borrower shall make one
interest only payment on the Initial Additional Equipment Loan Payment
Date.

     (b) The Additional Equipment Loan shall be considered a “Loan” for all purposes of the Loan
Agreement and the obligations of Borrower thereunder shall be included in the definition of
“Borrower’s Liabilities” thereunder. Any note(s) delivered by Borrower to Lender in connection with
the Additional Equipment Loan shall be included in the definition of “Other Agreements” for all
purposes of the Loan Agreement.

     (c) Section 3.1 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended to add the following sentence after
the word “select.” in line 13 thereof:

“Each Additional Equipment Loan shall bear interest payable monthly in
arrears on the first Business Day of each month, calculated on a 360 day
year comprised of twelve (12) thirty day months at a per annum rate equal
to the Loan Interest Rate specified in the related note, which rate shall
be the sum of (i) 720 basis points plus (ii) the greater of (a) 4.84% or
(b) the yield on Three-Year U.S. Treasury Notes on the date of such
advance, as reported in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H-15 or in
such other publication as Lender may reasonably select.”

     (d) The first sentence of Section 3.4 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended in its entirety
as follows:

“Provided that an “Event of Default” (hereinafter defined) does not exist,
the application of payments received by Lender pursuant to this Loan
Agreement shall be applied first to any and all late charges, fees and
expenses then due and payable hereunder; second to interest then due and
payable hereunder; third to the principal of the Term Loan then due and
payable, fourth pro rata to the principal of the Equipment Loan and the
Additional Equipment Loan then due and payable, and finally to the
principal of the Revolving Advances then outstanding.”

     (e) The last sentence of Section 4.3(b) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended in its entirety
as follows:

“A notice of termination or reduction given hereunder may be conditioned
upon the closing by Borrower of any other transaction; provided, however,
that Borrower shall pay Lender a fee of $500 in the event of the failure of
Borrower to terminate or reduce the unused portion of the Revolving
Commitment by the amount contained in such notice on the date specified
therein; and provided, further, that only one such payment shall be due
under Section 4.3 in the event of a concurrent failure to terminate or
reduce the Revolving Commitment and prepay, in whole or part, the Term
Loan, the Equipment Loan or the Additional Equipment Loan, as specified in
a notice from Borrower.”

     (f) Section 4.3(c) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended in its entirety as follows:

“(c) Borrower may, upon at least twenty (20) Business Days’ prior written
notice to Lender (stating the proposed date of prepayment and the principal

2

 

amount of the Term Loan, the Equipment Loan or the Additional Equipment
Loan to be prepaid), prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term
Loan, the Equipment Loan or the Additional Equipment Loan then outstanding
in whole, or in part (but any such partial payment shall equal at least 20%
of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Term Loan, the
Equipment Loan and the Additional Equipment Loan), by paying to Lender, in
immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the
principal amount of the Term Loan, the Equipment Loan and the Additional
Equipment Loan contained in the foregoing notice, (ii) all accrued and
unpaid interest on the amounts of the Term Loan, the Equipment Loan and the
Additional Equipment Loan to be repaid through the date of prepayment, and
(iii) (A) in the event that such prepayment is made on or prior to the
first anniversary of the date of this Loan Agreement (in the case of
prepayment of the Term Loan or the Equipment Loan) or the first anniversary
of the date of the Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement pursuant to
which Lender agreed to make the Additional Equipment Loan (in the case of
prepayment of the Additional Equipment Loan), a prepayment premium equal to
2.5% of the principal amount being prepaid, or (B) in the event that such
prepayments is made on or prior to the second anniversary of the date of
this Loan Agreement (in the case of prepayment of the Term Loan or the
Equipment Loan) or the second anniversary of the date of the Amendment to
the Loan and Security Agreement pursuant to which Lender agreed to make the
Additional Equipment Loan (in the case of prepayment of the Additional
Equipment Loan), a prepayment premium equal to 1.5% of the principal amount
being prepaid, or (C) in the event that such prepayments is made on or
prior to the third anniversary of the date of this Loan Agreement (in the
case of prepayment of the Term Loan or the Equipment Loan) or the third
anniversary of the date of the Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement
pursuant to which Lender agreed to make the Additional Equipment Loan (in
the case of prepayment of the Additional Equipment Loan), a prepayment
premium equal to .75% of the principal amount being prepaid; provided,
however, that no prepayment penalty shall be payable hereunder to the
extent that (i) the Term Loan, the Equipment Loan or the Additional
Equipment Loan is prepaid, in whole or in part, out of the proceeds of an
