WAIVER AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.16

THIS WAIVER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 15, 2012, is entered into by and among INFUSYSTEM HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), INFUSYSTEM, INC., a California corporation (“InfuSystem”), and FIRST BIOMEDICAL, INC., a Kansas corporation (“FBI” and together with Holdings and InfuSystem, the “Borrowers” and each individually a “Borrower”), BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. in its capacity as an Administrative Agent and as a Lender (“Agent”) and the other lenders party hereto (collectively, together with Agent in its capacity as a Lender, the “Lenders”).

WHEREAS, the Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of June 15, 2010 as amended by (i) that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of January 27, 2011, (ii) that certain Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of Xxxxx 0, 0000, (xxx) that certain Third Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of May 20, 2011 and (iv) that certain Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of July 21, 2011 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Borrowers have advised Agent and the Lenders that Meson Capital Partners, Xxxxxxxxxx Capital Partners and Boston Avenue Capital (collectively, the “Kleinheinz Dissident Group”) have (i) delivered to the Company, on behalf of stockholders having a majority of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, a demand that the Company call a special meeting of the stockholders of Holdings at which they would seek to remove the seven members of the Board of Directors of Holdings and replace them with the Kleinheinz Dissident Group’s nominees and (ii) delivered notice to the Company of the intent to nominate, and solicit proxies in support of, a competing slate of Director nominees, at the Company’s Annual Meeting (such proposed actions, together or separate, the “Board Replacement Proposal”);

WHEREAS, without limiting any other Change of Control that may occur in connection with the actions of the Kleinheinz Dissident Group, if stockholders of Holdings approve the Board Replacement Proposal and the Board Replacement Proposal is effected, a Change of Control would result therefrom, thereby constituting an Event of Default under Section 8.01(k) of the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, it is anticipated that, solely as a result of the potential for a Change of Control and Event of Default to occur resulting from an approval of the Board Replacement Proposal, auditing standard AU341 will require that the independent certified public accountant of the Borrowers issue a “going concern opinion” that will include an explanatory paragraph (the “Explanatory Paragraph”) referenced to disclosure in the audited financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2011 which describe the possibility of a Change of Control as a matter that raises substantial doubt about Holdings and its Subsidiaries ability to continue as a going concern (a “2011 Qualified Audit”);

WHEREAS, Section 6.01(a) of the Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers to deliver audited financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries for each Fiscal Year which are audited and, among other things, are not subject to any “going concern” or like qualification or exception or any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit;

WHEREAS, in light of the foregoing requirement, delivery of a 2011 Qualified Audit would constitute an Event of Default under Section 8.01(b) of the Credit Agreement (the “Designated Default”);

WHEREAS, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders prospectively waive the Designated Default, and Agent and the Lenders have agreed to prospectively waive the Designated Default subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, as of the close of business March 14, 2012, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans was $2,500,000; the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations was $80,580, and the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans was $24,000,000.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows.

SECTION 1

DEFINED TERMS

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 2

WAIVER

In reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrowers contained herein, and subject to the effectiveness and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 4 hereof, Lenders hereby prospectively waive the Designated Default solely to the extent and on the condition, however, that: (i) any 2011 Qualified Audit which is delivered to Agent indicates with specificity and certainty (as determined by Agent) that it is subject to a “going concern opinion” qualification solely as a result of the possibility that the Board Replacement Proposal will be approved by stockholders of Holdings, resulting in the occurrence of a Change of Control and hence an Event of Default (for the avoidance of doubt, the draft Explanatory Paragraph delivered to the Agent on March 14, 2012 establishes the foregoing requirement; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be deemed rescinded and of no effect if the final Explanatory Paragraph issued in the 2011 Qualified Audit is not in a form that is identical to such draft); and (ii) no other Default shall exist as of the date on which such 2011 Qualified Audit is delivered to Agent. Other than with respect to the express and specific waiver of the Designated Default set forth above, the foregoing shall not (a) be deemed a waiver of any Default which may now exist or which may occur after the date hereof, (b) establish a custom or course of dealing among Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers, (c) operate as a waiver of any other right, power, or remedy of Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, (d) be construed as an agreement or understanding by the Lenders to grant any other waiver or other accommodation in the future with respect to any provision of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (e) modify any of the Borrowers’ obligations to comply with the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 6.01(a) thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, nothing contained herein shall be construed waive, prejudice, impair or otherwise adversely affect any right, power or remedy of Agent or the Lenders as it relates to the Board Replacement Proposal or, if it occurs, any Change of Control or resulting Event of Default, all of which rights, powers and remedies are hereby expressly reserved.
