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. The term “financial statements” includes the notes and schedules. The terms “including” and “includes” always mean “including (or includes) without limitation,” in this or any Loan Document Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall

2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions hereunder with all interest, fees and finance charges due thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
2.1.1 Financing of Accounts. The Credit Extensions by Bank to Borrower for the financing of Accounts in accordance with this Section 2.1.1 shall be referred to as the “Accounts Financing Facility.” Subject to all terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time may not exceed Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) (the “Facility Amount”), and the aggregate amount of all outstanding Advances at any time may not exceed Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000).
(a) Financing of Accounts — Streamline Basis
(i) Streamline Borrowing. A “Streamline Period” is a period of time, designated as such, during which (i) no Event of Default is continuing and remains uncured and (ii) Borrower’s Adjusted Quick Ratio, tested on a monthly basis as of the last day of each month, is equal to or greater than 2.00 (a ratio of 2.00 to 1.00). Borrower is eligible for borrowing on a streamline basis (“Streamline Borrowing”) during any Streamline Period, as provided herein. When Borrower ceases to be eligible for Streamline Borrowing, Borrower shall immediately deliver to Bank a signed Invoice Transmittal together with copies of invoices of all Eligible Accounts. Once a Streamline Period ends, a new Streamline Period may not commence until at least two months have elapsed.
(ii) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during a Streamline Period, Bank shall extend credit to Borrower (each Credit Extension under the Accounts Financing Facility, whether made during a Streamline Period or on an invoice basis, is an “Advance;” or, if referring to more than one Advance, “Advances”) not exceeding the Availability Amount. Amounts borrowed hereunder may be repaid and, prior to the Advances Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions herein.
(iii) Borrowing Procedure. Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of an Advance set forth in this Agreement, to obtain an Advance during a Streamline Period, Borrower shall notify Bank by electronic mail, facsimile, or telephone by 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Funding Date of the Advance. Together with any such electronic or facsimile notification, Borrower shall deliver to Bank by electronic mail or facsimile a completed Payment/Advance Form executed by a Responsible Officer or his or her designee.
(iv) Overadvances. If, at any time, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances exceeds the Availability Amount (such excess being referred to as an “Overadvance”), Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank in cash such Overadvance. Without limiting Borrower’s obligation to repay the Overadvance, Borrower shall pay Bank interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at the Default Rate; provided that, so long as an Overadvance is repaid within one (I) Business Day of such demand, the non-default interest rate, and not the Default Rate, shall be applied.
(b) Financing of Accounts - Invoice Basis
2
(i) Availability. When Borrower is not in a Streamline Period, subject to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower may request that Bank finance specific Eligible Accounts. Bank may, in its good faith business discretion, finance such Eligible Accounts by making an Advance to Borrower in an amount equal to the result of the Advance Rate multiplied by the face amount of the Eligible Account. Bank may, in its sole discretion, change the percentage of the Advance Rate for a particular Eligible Account on a case by case basis. When Bank makes an Advance hereunder, the Eligible Account becomes a Financed Receivable. Amounts borrowed hereunder may be repaid and, prior to the Advances Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions herein.
(ii) Borrowing Procedure. Borrower will deliver an Invoice Transmittal for each Eligible Account it offers. Bank may rely on information set forth in or provided with the Invoice Transmittal.
(iii) Overadvances. If Borrower is not in a Streamline Period and the aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables is less than the total amount of Advances divided by the Advance Rate, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank in cash the amount necessary so that the aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables is equal to or greater than the aggregate amount of outstanding Advances divided by the Advance Rate (also referred to as an “Overadvance”). Borrower shall pay Bank interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at the Default Rate; provided that, so long as an Overadvance is repaid within one (1) Business Day of such demand, the non-default interest rate, and not the Default Rate, shall be applied. Borrower shall further cooperate with Bank in promptly providing such information as may be necessary to reconcile the amount of outstanding Advances with the face amounts of Financed Receivables, as reduced by the applicable Advance Rate.
(c) Credit Quality; Confirmations. Bank may, at its option, conduct a credit check of the Account Debtor for each Account requested by Borrower for financing hereunder in order to approve any such Account Debtor’s credit before agreeing to finance such Account. Bank may also verify directly with the respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to the Accounts (including confirmations of Borrower’s representations in Section 5.3) by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of Borrower or Bank from time to time in its sole discretion.
(d) Accounts Notification/Collection. Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and verify and/or collect the amount of the Account. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement, any written notification letters to Account Debtors, which may be delivered at Bank’s sole discretion, shall be presented on Borrower’s stationary.
(e) Early Termination. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to Advances prior to the Advances Maturity Date as follows: (i) by Borrower, effective three Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice, effective immediately. If this Agreement is terminated (A) by Bank in accordance with clause (ii) in the foregoing sentence, or (B) by Borrower for any reason, Borrower shall pay to Bank a termination fee in an amount equal to Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000) (the “Early Termination Fee”). The Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable on the effective date of such termination and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank agrees to waive the Early Termination Fee if Bank agrees to refinance and redocument this Agreement under another division of Bank (in its sole and exclusive discretion) prior to the Advances Maturity Date. Early termination hereunder will result in acceleration of all other Obligations outstanding under this Agreement, if any.
3
(f) Maturity. All Obligation due under the Accounts Financing Facility shall be immediately due and payable on the Advances Maturity Date.
(g) Suspension of Advances. Borrower’s ability to request that Bank finance Eligible Accounts hereunder will terminate if, in Bank’s reasonable discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement.
2.1.2 Term Loan B.
(a) Availability. Bank has previously made a term loan available to Borrower in the maximum principal amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (the “Term Loan B Amount”). The aggregate outstanding principal amount due and owing under Term Loan B as of the Effective Date hereof is approximately $1,032,000 (the outstanding principal balance of the initial Term Loan B advance is approximately $432,800; the principal balance of the additional Term Loan B advance is approximately $599,200 (each a “Term Loan B Advance” and collectively the “Term Loan B Advances”).
(b) Repayment. Repayment of Term Loan B commenced pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement prior to the Effective Date hereof, and continues after the Effective Date hereof as follows:
(i) Borrower shall repay the initial Term Loan B Advance in equal installments of principal and interest (each installment a “Term Loan B Payment”), to be made on the first day of each month in the amount of $44,599.56, with the last such monthly payment to be made on March I, 2013, at which time all outstanding principal, interest, fees and costs thereunder, including the Final Payment Fee-B (as defined below) due in connection with such Term Loan B Advance, shall be due and payable.
(ii) Borrower shall repay the additional Term Loan B Advance in equal installments of principal and interest (each payment also deemed a Term Loan B Payment), to be made on the first day of each month in the amount of $44,598.35, with the last such monthly payment to be made on July 1, 2013, at which time all outstanding principal, interest, fees and costs thereunder, including the Final Payment Fee-B due in connection with such Term Loan B Advance, shall be due and payable.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, fees and costs due under Term Loan B shall be due not later than the Term Loan B Maturity Date.
(c) Prepayment.
(i) Voluntary Prepayment. At Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of Term Loan B then outstanding under this Loan Agreement, provided Borrower (a) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay Term Loan Bat least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to Term Loan B through the date the prepayment is made; (ii) all unpaid principal with respect to Term Loan B; (iii) a premium equal to the Make Whole Premium-B; and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to this Agreement.
4
(ii) Involuntary Prepayment. If Term Loan B has become due and payable according to the terms hereof because of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank all sums owing thereon. This shall include, at Bank’s option, all principal outstanding, all accrued and unpaid interest, all attorneys’ and professional fees and costs, court costs and expenses, and all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to this Loan Agreement including the Final Payment Fee-B together with any Make Whole Premium-B.
(d) Final Payment Fee. Concurrently with Borrower’s final payment of a Term Loan B Advance and not later than the Term Loan B Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Bank a Final Payment Fee - B (“Final Payment Fee-B”), with respect to such Term Loan B Advance, in an amount equal to three percent (3.00%) of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan B Advance.
(e) Interest on Term Loan B
(i) Subject to Section 2.1.2(e)(ii), the principal amount outstanding under Term Loan B shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to six and one-half percent (6.50%), which interest shall be payable monthly. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
(ii) Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate, as set forth in Section 2.2.4(c). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided herein 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 Bank.
(f) Make-Whole Premium. A Make-Whole Premium-B shall be paid if/when due pursuant to the terms hereof.
2.1.3 Term Loan C.
(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, within three (3) business days of the Effective Date hereof, Bank shall make an advance (the “Term Loan C Advance”) in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Term Loan C Amount”) to Borrower, to assist with Borrower’s working capital requirements as set forth herein:
(b) Borrowing Procedure. To obtain a Term Loan C Advance, Borrower shall deliver to Bank by electronic mail or facsimile a completed Payment/Advance Form in the form of Exhibit C to this Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto, executed by a Responsible Officer or his or her designee. Bank shall credit the Term Loan C Advance to the Designated Deposit Account.
(c) Repayment.
(i) Payments of interest only shall be made on the Term Loan C Advance on the first day of each calendar month during the period commencing with the first day of the calendar month immediately following the Term Loan C Advance, and continuing for five (5) consecutive
5
months thereafter (“Interest Only Period”). The aggregate outstanding amount of the Term Loan C Advance shall thereafter amortize and be payable in thirty (30) equal payments of principal and interest beginning on first day of the month immediately following the Interest Only Period, and shall continue on the first day of each month thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all unpaid principal and interest on Term Loan C shall be due on the Term Loan C Maturity Date. Once repaid, no part of the Term Loan C Advance may be reborrowed.
(ii) For avoidance of doubt and by way of example only, if Borrower receives a Term Loan C Advance on April 25, 2012, the initial interest payment would be due on May 1, 2012, and interest payments would continue on the first day of each month through September 1, 2012. Fully amortizing loan payments on the Term Loan C Advance would commence on October 1, 2012, with a scheduled Term Loan C Maturity Date occurring on March 1, 2015.
(d) Prepayment.
(i) Voluntary Prepayment. At Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of Term Loan C then outstanding under this Loan Agreement, provided Borrower (a) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay Term Loan C at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to Term Loan C through the date the prepayment is made; (ii) all unpaid principal with respect to Term Loan C; (iii) a premium equal to the Make Whole Premium-C; and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to this Agreement.
(ii) Involuntary Prepayment.

(e) Final Payment Fee. Concurrently with Borrower’s final payment of a Term Loan C Advance and not later than the Term Loan C Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Bank a Final Payment Fee - C (“Final Payment Fee-C”), with respect to such Term Loan C Advance, in an amount equal to three percent (3.00%) of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan C Advance.
(f) Interest on Term Loan C.
(i) Subject to Section 2.1.3(f)(ii), the principal amount outstanding under Term Loan C shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to six (6.00%), which interest shall be payable monthly. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
(ii) Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate, as set forth in Section 2.2.4(c). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased
6
interest rate provided herein 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 Bank.
(g) Facility Fee. In addition to any other fees due under this Agreement, Borrower will pay to Bank a facility fee in the amount of $5,000 (“Facility Fee C”).
(h) Make-Whole Premium. A Make-Whole Premium-C shall be paid if/when due pursuant to the terms hereof.
(i) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, plus expenses, for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date hereof, shall be paid when due.
2.2 Collections. Finance Charges. Interest, Remittances and Fees. The Obligations shall be subject to the following fees, interest and Finance Charges. Unpaid fees, interest and Finance Charges may, in Bank’s discretion, accrue interest and additional fees as described in Section 9.2 hereof
2.2.1 Collections. Collections will be credited to the Financed Receivable Balance for such Financed Receivable, but if there is an Event of Default, Bank may apply Collections to the Obligations in any order it chooses. If Bank receives a payment for both a Financed Receivable and a non-Financed Receivable, the funds will first be applied to the Financed Receivable and, if there is no Event of Default then existing, the excess will be remitted to Borrower, subject to Section 2.2.2.
2.2.2 Lockbox; Account Collection Services.
(a) As and when directed by Bank from time to time, at Bank’s option and at the sole and exclusive discretion of Bank (regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred), Borrower shall direct each Account Debtor (and each depository institution where proceeds of Accounts are on deposit) to remit payments with respect to the Accounts to a lockbox account established with Bank or to wire transfer payments to a cash collateral account that Bank controls (collectively, the “Lockbox”). It will be considered an immediate Event of Default if the Lockbox is not set-up and operational within forty-five (45) days from the date of such direction by Bank.
(b) Provided no Event of Default exists or an event that with notice or lapse of time would be an Event of Default, when in a Streamline Period, within one ( 1 ) day of receipt of such amounts by Bank, Bank will turn over to Borrower the proceeds of the Accounts less any amounts due to Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility Fee, payments due to Bank, other fees and expenses, or otherwise.
(c) When Borrower is not in a Streamline Period, and provided no Event of Default exists and no event has occurred that with notice or lapse of time would be an Event of Default, within three (3) days of receipt in the Lockbox of such amounts by Bank, Bank will turn over to Borrower the proceeds of the Accounts other than Collections with respect to Financed Receivables and the amount of Collections in excess of the amounts for which Bank has made an Advance to Borrower, less any amounts due to Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility Fee, payments due to Bank, other fees and expenses, or otherwise; provided, however, Bank may hold such excess amount with respect to Financed Receivables as a reserve until the end of the applicable Reconciliation Period if Bank, in its discretion, determines that other Financed Receivable(s) may no longer qualify as an Eligible Account at any time prior to the end of the subject Reconciliation Period. This Section does not impose any affirmative duty on Bank to perform any act other than as specifically set forth herein. All Accounts and the proceeds thereof are
7
Collateral and if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Bank may apply the proceeds of such Accounts to the Obligations.
2.2.3 Facility Fee; Anniversary Fee. Subject to the adjustment described herein, a fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) is due upon execution of this Agreement (the “Facility Fee”), and an anniversary fee of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) is due and payable one year from the Effective Date (the “Anniversary Fee”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the unused portion of Facility Fee C in the amount of $30,000, set forth in the Existing Loan Agreement and paid effective August 5, 2011, for the one year period commencing on that date, shall be applied to the Facility Fee herein to offset the cash amount to be paid by Borrower (such calculation to be made on a pro-rata basis for the period August 5, 2011 through August 4, 2012). Bank also acknowledges that Borrower has paid to Bank a deposit in the amount of $15,000 in connection with this Agreement, and it shall be applied to the Facility Fee or Bank Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement upon the Effective Date hereof.
2.2.4 Interest and Finance Charges.
(a) Accounts Financing Facility.
(i) When Borrower does not qualify for Streamline Borrowing, the Finance Charge (as computed in accordance with Section 2.2.4(a)(iii)) on an Advance is payable when the Advance is payable in accordance with Section 2.2.2 hereof. In computing Finance Charges on the Obligations under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of the Obligations one (1) Business Day after receipt of the Collections. The Finance Charge is payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable.
(ii) When Borrower qualifies for Streamline Borrowing, the aggregate amount of Finance Charges accrued during a calendar month under the Accounts Financing Facility shall be paid on the first (1st) day of the following month. The aggregate amount of Financed Receivables may fluctuate from time to time, and such fluctuation shall be included in the calculation of the Finance Charge.
(iii) Borrower shall pay a finance charge (the “Finance Charge”) on the Financed Receivable Balance which is equal to the Applicable Rate divided by 360 multiplied by the number of days the Financed Receivables (or a portion thereof) comprising any Advance are outstanding multiplied by the Financed Receivable Balance. After an Event of Default, the Applicable Rate will be immediately subject to a Default Rate and may increase accordingly.
(b) Term Loans. The principal amount outstanding under Term Loan B and Term Loan C accrue interest at a fixed rate as set forth in Sections 2.1.2(e) and 2.1.3(f) respectively. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for principal and/or interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due under the term loans. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
(c) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall bear interest (with respect to loans subject to an interest accrual) or shall be assessed a Finance Charge (for loans subject to Finance Charges) at the sole discretion of Bank at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto unless Bank otherwise elects from time to time in its sole discretion to impose a smaller increase (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate or Finance Charge, as
8
the case may be, provided in this Section 2.2.4(c) 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 Bank.
2.2.5 Collateral Handling Fee. So long as Borrower is in compliance with this Agreement and maintains an Adjusted Quick Ratio, tested monthly, greater than or equal to 1.35:1.00, there shall be no Collateral Handling Fee assessed. When Borrower maintains an Adjusted Quick Ratio, tested monthly, less than 1.35:1.00, Borrower will pay to Bank a collateral handling fee equal to 0.25% per month of the Financed Receivable Balance for each Financed Receivable outstanding based upon a 360 day year (the “Collateral Handling Fee”). This fee is charged on a daily basis and is equal to the Collateral Handling Fee divided by 30, multiplied by the number of days each such Financed Receivable is outstanding, multiplied by the outstanding Financed Receivable Balance. The Collateral Handling Fee is payable on the date when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable in accordance with Section 2.2.2 hereof. In computing Collateral Handling Fees under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of Obligations three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Collections. After an Event of Default, the Collateral Handling Fee will increase by an additional 0.50% effective immediately upon such Event of Default.
2.2.6 Accounting. After each Reconciliation Period, Bank will provide an accounting of the transactions for that Reconciliation Period, including the amount of all Financed Receivables, all Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, Collateral Handling Fee and the Facility Fee. If Borrower does not object to the accounting in writing within thirty (30) days it shall be considered accurate.
2.2.7 Deductions. Bank may deduct fees, interest, Finance Charges, Advances which become due pursuant to Section 2.3, and other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement from any Advances made or Collections received by Bank.
2.2.8 Bank Expenses. Borrower shall pay all Bank 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.
2.2.9 Success Fees
(a) Success Fee-A. In addition to any other Success Fee as set forth in this Agreement, Borrower will pay to Bank a fee in the amount of $100,000 (the “Success Fee-A”) immediately upon the completion of a merger or acquisition transaction involving Borrower and any other person, subject to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereof, wherein all or substantially all of the Borrower or its assets are acquired, made subject to a merger, transfer or sale for consideration, or involved in a related transaction (any of which shall be referred to as a “Merger Event”). The Success Fees set forth hereunder, including Success Fee-A, Success Fee-B, Success Fee-C, Success Fee-D shall collectively be referred to as the “Success Fees.”
(b) Success Fee-B. In addition to any other Success Fee as set forth in this Agreement, Borrower will pay to Bank a fee in the amount of $100,000 (the “Success Fee-B”) immediately upon the completion of a merger or acquisition transaction involving Borrower and any other person, subject to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereof, wherein all or substantially all of the Borrower or its assets are acquired, made subject to a Merger Event.
(c) Success Fee-C. In addition to any other Success Fee as set forth in this Agreement, Borrower will pay to Bank a fee in the amount of $30,000 (the “Success Fee-C”) immediately
9
upon the completion of a merger or acquisition transaction involving Borrower and any other person, subject to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereof, wherein all or substantially all of the Borrower or its assets are acquired, made subject to a Merger Event.
(d) Success Fee-D. In addition to any other Success Fee as set forth in this Agreement, Borrower will pay to Bank a fee in the amount of $70,000 (the “Success Fee-D”) immediately upon the completion of a merger or acquisition transaction involving Borrower and any other person, subject to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereof, wherein all or substantially all of the Borrower or its assets are acquired, made subject to a Merger Event.
(e) The rights granted hereunder to each of the Success Fees shall survive termination of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated prior to payment of any Success Fee, Bank shall continue to have such right in perpetuity, until paid. Borrower shall notify Bank of any Merger Event promptly upon the occurrence of such an event
2.3 Repayment of Obligations; Adjustments.
2.3.1 Repayment. Borrower will repay each Advance on the earliest of (a) the date on which payment is received of the Financed Receivable with respect to which the Advance was made, (b) the date on which the Financed Receivable is no longer an Eligible Account, (c) the date on which any Adjustment is asserted to the Financed Receivable (but only to the extent of the Adjustment if the Financed Receivable remains otherwise an Eligible Account), (d) the date on which there is a breach of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 5.3, or a breach of any covenant in this Agreement or (e) the Advances Maturity Date (including any early termination).

The demand may, at Bank’s option, include the Advance for each Financed Receivable then outstanding and all accrued Finance Charges, the Early Termination Fee, Collateral Handling Fee, attorneys’ and professional fees, court costs and expenses, and any other Obligations.
2.3.3 Debit of Accounts. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank hereunder. Bank shall promptly notify Borrower when it debits Borrower’s accounts. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
2.3.4 Adjustments.

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 Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted, the failure of which to do so could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

To Borrower’s knowledge, no written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank, 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 by Bank that 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).

9.1 Rights and Remedies. When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank 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 Bank);
(b) Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
(c) Intentionally omitted.
(d) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable and notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account. Borrower shall collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit;
(e) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates. Bank 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 Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
(f) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;
22
(g) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
(h) Place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(i) Demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and
(j) Exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided by the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
9.2 Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain insurance called for by Section 6.4 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or by any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable effort to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
9.3 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of Collateral in possession or under the control of Bank, Bank 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.
9.4 Remedies Cumulative. Bank’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 Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
9.5 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 Bank on which Borrower is liable.

WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Xxxxx County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Xxxxx County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Xxxxx County, California
24
Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The panics shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings.

Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

Schedule 1
EXHIBIT A ‒ COLLATERAL DESCRIPTION
The Collateral consists of all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the following personal property wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising:
All goods, Accounts (including health-care receivables), Equipment, Inventory, contract rights or rights to payment of money, leases, license agreements, franchise agreements, General Intangibles (except as provided below), commercial tort claims, documents, instruments (including any promissory notes), chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), cash, deposit accounts, fixtures, letters of credit rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced by a writing), securities, and all other investment property, supporting obligations, and financial assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever located; and all Borrower’s Books relating to the foregoing, and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above and all substitutions for, additions, attachments, accessories, accessions and improvements to and replacements, products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of any or all of the foregoing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include any of the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired: (a) more than sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding voting capital stock of any Subsidiary that is incorporated or organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia if to do so would cause Borrower adverse tax consequences under Internal revenue Code Section 956 (or any successor statute), (b) rights held under a license that are not assignable by their terms without the consent of the licensor thereof (but only to the extent such restriction on assignment is enforceable under applicable law), (c) any interest of Borrower as a lessee under an Equipment lease if Borrower is prohibited by the terms of such lease from granting a security interest in such lease or under which such an assignment or Lien would cause a default to occur under such lease; provided, however, that upon termination of such prohibition, such interest shall immediately become Collateral without any action by Borrower or Bank, or (d) any Intellectual Property; provided, however, the Collateral shall include all Accounts and all proceeds of Intellectual Property. If a judicial authority (including a U.S. Bankruptcy Court) would hold that a security interest in the underlying Intellectual Property is necessary to have a security interest in such Accounts and such property that are proceeds of Intellectual Property, then the Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the Effective Date, include the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of Bank’s security interest in such Accounts and such other property of Borrower that are proceeds of the Intellectual Property.
Pursuant to the terms of a certain negative pledge arrangement with Bank, Borrower has agreed not to encumber any of its Intellectual Property without Bank’s prior written consent.

SPECIALTY FINANCE DIVISION
Compliance Certificate
Compliance Certificate
I, an authorized officer of ForeScout Technologies, Inc. (“Borrower”) certify under the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) between Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (“Bank”) as follows (all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement):
Borrower represents and warrants for each Financed Receivable:
Each Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account.
Borrower is the owner with legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable;
The correct amount is on the Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed;
Payment is not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Invoice Transmittal date;
Each Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been previously sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens;
There are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount;
It reasonably believes no Account Debtor is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings;
It has not filed or had filed against it Insolvency Proceedings and does not anticipate any filing;
Bank has the right to endorse and/ or require Borrower to endorse all payments received on Financed Receivables and all proceeds of Collateral; and
To its knowledge, no representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or statement not misleading.
Additionally, Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do
so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s organizational documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.
Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 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 is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with applicable provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure to obtain or make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Attached are the required documents supporting the certification (unless delivered earlier to Bank). The undersigned certifies that these are prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financials, subject to the absence of footnote disclosure and year-end adjustments) consistently applied from one period to the next except as explained in an accompanying letter or footnotes. The undersigned acknowledges that no borrowings may be requested at any time or date of determination that Borrower is not in compliance with any of the terms of the Agreement, and that compliance is determined not just at the date this certificate is delivered. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

JOINDER AND THIRD AMENDMENT
TO
AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Joinder and Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (this “Amendment”) is entered into this 3rd day of December, 2015 by and between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”) and FORESCOUT TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Existing Borrower”) whose address is 000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000.
RECITALS
A. Bank and Existing Borrower have entered into that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of May 24, 2012, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement by and between Existing Borrower and Bank dated as of July 25, 2013, and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement by and between Existing Borrower and Bank dated as of December 27, 2013 (as the same may from time to time be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Agreement”).
B. Bank has extended credit to Existing Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.
C. Existing Borrower has requested that Bank amend the Loan Agreement to (i) extend the Advances Maturity Date, (ii) revise a financial covenant, (iii) amend the Applicable Rate, (iv) add a new borrower to the Loan Agreement; and (iv) make certain other revisions to the Loan Agreement as more fully set forth herein.
D. Bank has agreed to so amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.
2. Joinder to Loan Agreement. The undersigned, FORESCOUT
GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “New Borrower” and, together with Existing Borrower, jointly and severally, individually and collectively, the “Borrower”), hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the Loan Agreement and Loan Documents, as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, New Borrower agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with the Existing Borrower, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.
3. Subrogation and Similar Rights. Each Borrower waives any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law. Each Borrower waives any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against either Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against either Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting either Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Bank under the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from the other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
4. Grant of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance of all the Obligations, New Borrower hereby grants to Bank a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of New Borrower’s now existing or hereafter arising rights and interest in the Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired or arising, and wherever located, including, without limitation, all of New Borrower’s assets (excluding Intellectual Property), and all New Borrower’s books relating to the foregoing and any and all claims, rights and interest in any of the above and all substitutions for, additions, attachments, accessories, accessions and
improvements to and replacements, products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of any or all of the foregoing. New Borrower further covenants and agrees that by its execution hereof it shall provide all such information, complete all such forms, and take all such actions, and enter into all such agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank that are reasonably deemed necessary by Bank in order to grant a valid, perfected first priority security interest to Bank in the Collateral. New Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions in order to perfect or protect Bank’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 the Bank under the Code.
5. Representations and Warranties. New Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of Existing Borrower are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to New Borrower, with the same force and effect as if New Borrower were named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents in addition to Existing Borrower.
6. Delivery of Documents. New Borrower hereby agrees that the following documents shall be delivered to the Bank prior to or contemporaneously with delivery of this Agreement, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank:
A. | the duly executed Joinder and Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement by and among Borrower, Bank and Gold Hill Capital 2008, LP (“Gold Hill”); |
B. | the duly executed Joinder and First Amendment to Mezzanine Loan and Security Agreement by and among Borrower, Bank and Gold Hill; |
C. | the completed Limited Liability Company Borrowing Certificate for New Borrower, together with the duly executed original signatures thereto; |

E. | duly executed original signatures to the Control Agreement(s) for New Borrower, as required by Bank; |
F. | certified copies, dated as of a recent date, of financing statement searches, as Bank may request, accompanied by written evidence (including any UCC termination statements) that the Liens indicated in any such financing |
statements either constitute Permitted Liens or have been or, in connection with the initial Credit Extension pursuant to this Amendment, will be terminated or released;
G. | the Perfection Certificate of New Borrower, together with the duly executed original signature thereto (“New Borrower’s Perfection Certificate”); |
H. | [Intentionally Omitted]; |
I. | [Intentionally Omitted]; |
J. | evidence satisfactory to Bank that the insurance policies and endorsements required by the Loan Agreement are in full force and effect, together with appropriate evidence showing lender loss payable and/or additional insured clauses or endorsements in favor of Bank; and |
K. | such other documents as Bank may reasonably request. |

“Applicable Rate” is:
(a) at all times prior to the 2015 Amendment Date, one of the following rates:
(i) so long as Borrower maintains an Adjusted Quick Ratio, tested monthly, equal to or greater than 1.50:1.00, the Applicable Rate shall be a per annum rate equal to the greater of: (A) the Prime Rate plus six-tenths of one percent (0.60%); or (B) four and six-tenths percent (4.60%); provided however,
(ii) when Borrower maintains an Adjusted Quick Ratio, tested monthly, less than 1.50:1.00, the Applicable Rate shall be a per annum rate equal to the greater of: (A) the Prime Rate plus three quarters of one percent (0.75%); or (B) four and three quarters percent (4.75%); and

“WSJ Prime Rate” is the rate of interest per annum from time to time published in the money rates section of The Wall Street Journal or any successor publication thereto as the “prime rate” then in effect; provided that if such rate of interest, as set forth from time to time in the money rates section of The Wall Street Journal, becomes unavailable for any reason as determined by Bank, the “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate of interest per annum announced by Bank as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in the State of California (such Bank announced Prime Rate not being intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged by Bank in connection with extensions of credit to debtors).
7.6 Exhibit B (Compliance Certificate). The Compliance Certificate is amended in its entirety and replaced with the Compliance Certificate in the form of Schedule 1 attached hereto.
8. Limitation of Amendments.
8.1 The amendments set forth in Section 7 above are effective for the purposes set forth herein and shall be limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed to (a) be a consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of any other term or condition of any Loan Document, or (b) otherwise prejudice any right or remedy which Bank may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with any Loan Document.
8.2 This Amendment shall be construed in connection with and as part of the Loan Documents and all terms, conditions, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents, except as herein amended, are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect.
9. Waivers. Bank hereby waives Borrower’s existing defaults under the Loan Agreement by virtue of Borrower’s failure to comply with the Aggregate Quarterly Bookings financial covenant set forth in Section 6.7(a) thereof by virtue of its failure to determine the minimum Aggregate Quarterly Bookings covenant for the periods after December 31, 2014 on or before January 31, 2015. Bank’s waiver of Borrower’s compliance of said financial covenant shall apply only to the foregoing specific period. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that except as specifically provided herein, nothing in this Section or anywhere in this Amendment shall be deemed or otherwise construed as a waiver by Bank of any of its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise.
10. Representations and Warranties. To induce Bank to enter into this Amendment, Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank as follows:
10.1 Immediately after giving effect to this Amendment (a) the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents are true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such date), and (b) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
10.2 Borrower has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment and to perform its obligations under the Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment;

10.5 The execution and delivery by Borrower of this Amendment and the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, do not and will not contravene (a) any law or regulation binding on or affecting Borrower, (b) any contractual restriction with a Person binding on Borrower, (c) any order, judgment
or decree of any court or other governmental or public body or authority, or subdivision thereof, binding on Borrower, or (d) the organizational documents of Borrower;
10.6 The execution and delivery by Borrower of this Amendment and the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, do not require any order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by any governmental or public body or authority, or subdivision thereof, binding on Borrower, except as already has been obtained or made; and
10.7 This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and is the binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium or other similar laws of general application and equitable principles relating to or affecting creditors’ rights.
11. Ratification of Perfection Certificate. Existing Borrower hereby ratifies, confirms and reaffirms, all and singular, the terms and disclosures contained in a certain Perfection Certificate dated as of December 27, 2013 between Existing Borrower and Bank (“Existing Borrower’s Perfection Certificate”), and acknowledges, confirms and agrees the disclosures and information Borrower provided to Bank in said Perfection Certificate have not changed, as of the date hereof. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that all references in the Loan Agreement to “Perfection Certificate” shall mean and include, collectively, Existing Borrower’s Perfection Certificate and New Borrower’s Perfection Certificate.
12. Integration. This Amendment and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Amendment and the Loan Documents merge into this Amendment and the Loan Documents.
13. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
14. Effectiveness. This Amendment shall be deemed effective upon (a) the due execution and delivery to Bank of this Amendment by each party hereto, and (b) Borrower’s payment of Bank’s legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Amendment.
[Signature page follows.]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first written above.

I, an authorized officer of FORESCOUT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. and FORESCOUT GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, the “Borrower”) certify under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Agreement”) between Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (“Bank”) as follows (all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement):
Borrower represents and warrants for each Financed Receivable:
Each Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account.
Borrower is the owner with legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable;
The correct amount is on the Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed;
Payment is not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Invoice Transmittal date;
Each Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been previously sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens;
There are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount;
It reasonably believes no Account Debtor is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings; It has not filed or had filed against it Insolvency Proceedings and does not anticipate any filing;
Bank has the right to endorse and/ or require Borrower to endorse all payments received on Financed Receivables and all proceeds of Collateral; and
To its knowledge, no representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or statement not misleading.
Additionally, Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s organizational documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.
Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 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 is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with applicable provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made
adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure to obtain or make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Attached are the required documents supporting the certification (unless delivered earlier to Bank). The undersigned certifies that these are prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financials, subject to the absence of footnote disclosure and year-end adjustments) consistently applied from one period to the next except as explained in an accompanying letter or footnotes. The undersigned acknowledges that no borrowings may be requested at any time or date of determination that Borrower is not in compliance with any of the terms of the Agreement, and that compliance is determined not just at the date this certificate is delivered. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

To its knowledge, no representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or statement not misleading.

Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s organizational documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.

Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure to obtain or make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Attached are the required documents supporting the certification (unless delivered earlier to Bank). The undersigned certifies that these are prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financials, subject to the absence of footnote disclosure and year-end adjustments) consistently applied from one period to the next except as explained in an accompanying letter or footnotes. The undersigned acknowledges that no borrowings may be requested at any time or date of determination that Borrower is not in compliance with any of the terms of the Agreement, and that compliance is determined not just at the date this certificate is delivered.

(f) Interest on Term Loan D.
(i) Subject to Section 2.1.4(000, the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan D Advance shall accrue interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to three and one-quarter of one percent (3.25%), which interest shall be payable monthly. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
(ii) Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate, as set forth in Section 2.2.4(c). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided herein 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 Bank.”

(a) As part of the Accounts Financing Facility, Bank shall issue or have issued Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or a Foreign Currency for Borrower’s account.

(b) If, on the Advances Maturity Date (or the effective date of any termination of this Agreement), there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105.0%) (if the Letter of Credit is denominated in Dollars) or one hundred ten percent (110.0%) (if the Letter of Credit is denominated in a Foreign Currency) of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or estimated by Bank to become due in connection therewith, to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit. All Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s standard Application and Letter of Credit Agreement (the “Letter of Credit Application”). Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request.

If a demand for payment is made under any such Letter of Credit, Bank shall treat such demand as an Advance to Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount thereof (plus fees and charges in connection therewith such as wire, cable, SW11-.1 or similar charges).
(e) To guard against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency, Bank shall create a reserve
4
(the “Letter of Credit Reserve”) under the Accounts Financing Facility in an amount equal to ten percent (10.0%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve may be adjusted by Bank from time to time to account for fluctuations in the exchange rate. The availability of funds under the Accounts Financing Facility shall be reduced by the amount of such Letter of Credit Reserve for as long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding.
(f) Borrower shall pay to Bank Bank’s customary fees and expenses for the issuance or renewal of Letters of Credit, upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit, each anniversary of the issuance during the term of such Letter of Credit, and upon the renewal of such Letter of Credit by Bank.”

Compliance Certificate
I, an authorized officer of FORESCOUT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. and FORESCOUT GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, the “Borrower”) certify under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Agreement”) between Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (“Bank”) as follows (all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement):

Each Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account.
Borrower is the owner with legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable;
The correct amount is on the Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed;
Payment is not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Invoice Transmittal date;
Each Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been previously sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens;
There are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount;
It reasonably believes no Account Debtor is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings;
It has not filed or had filed against it Insolvency Proceedings and does not anticipate any filing;
Bank has the right to endorse and/ or require Borrower to endorse all payments received on Financed Receivables and all proceeds of Collateral; and
To its knowledge, no representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or statement not misleading.
Additionally, Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s organizational documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not
1
in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.
Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 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 is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with applicable provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure to obtain or make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Attached are the required documents supporting the certification (unless delivered earlier to Bank). The undersigned certifies that these are prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financials, subject to the absence of footnote disclosure and year-end adjustments) consistently applied from one period to the next except as explained in an accompanying letter or footnotes. The undersigned acknowledges that no borrowings may be requested at any time or date of determination that Borrower is not in compliance with any of the terms of the Agreement, and that compliance is determined not just at the date this certificate is delivered.
