Recitals
A. Pursuant to that certain Business Loan and Security Agreement dated January 16, 2007,
between Borrower and Lender (including all annexes, exhibits, and schedules thereto, and as the
same may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan

direct or indirect benefit of Borrower, including pursuant to that certain Export-Import Bank Loan
and Security Agreement dated January 16, 2007, between Borrower and Lender (including all annexes,
exhibits, and schedules thereto, and as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Exim Agreement”).
B. At the time of execution of the Loan Agreement and the Exim Agreement, Borrower agreed not
to create any Security Interests (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in any of Borrower’s
intellectual property in favor of or otherwise for the benefit of any third party, and in reliance
thereon, Lender did not record with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) or the
US Copyright Office any security agreements or other collateral assignment instruments covering
such property.
C. Borrower has requested that Lender approve of and permit Borrower’s grant to American
Medical Systems, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“AMS”), and Laserscope, a California corporation
(“Laserscope”), of a security interest in all of Borrower’s properties including its intellectual

among other things, Lender, Borrower and AMS/Laserscope agreeing to the terms of a subordination
agreement, and Lender recording with the USPTO and/or the US Copyright Office any security
agreements or other collateral assignment instruments Lender deems advisable.
D. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement and related agreements, and at Lender’s request, Borrower is
required to execute and deliver to Lender, for the benefit of Lender, this Agreement. Borrower is
willing to enter into this Agreement as required by the Loan Agreement and in further consideration
of Lender agreeing to Borrower’s grant to AMS/Laserscope of the security interest describe above.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Debtor and Secured Party hereby agree as follows:
1. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms, phrases or matters of construction
defined or established in the Loan Agreement and the Exim Agreement, and any related agreements,
shall be applied in this Agreement. All other undefined terms contained in this Agreement, unless
the context indicates otherwise, shall have the meanings provided for by the California Commercial
Code to the extent the same are used or defined there.
2. Debtor hereby confirms its previous grant to Secured Party under the Loan Agreement and the
Exim Agreement, and any related agreements, of the Security Interest in all of Debtor’s property
and other assets of every kind and nature, and does hereby grant to Secured Party, a continuing
first-priority security interest on all of Debtor’s right, title, and interest in, to and under the
property described in Schedule I, whether presently existing or hereafter created or acquired
(collectively, the “Intellectual Property Collateral”).
3. The security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement is granted in conjunction with the
Security Interests granted to Secured Party, for the benefit of Secured Party, pursuant to the Loan
Agreement and the Exim Agreement, and any related agreements. Debtor hereby acknowledges and
affirms that the rights and remedies of Secured Party with respect to the Security Interests in the
Intellectual Property Collateral granted under this Agreement are more fully set forth in the Loan
Agreement, the Exim Agreement, and any related agreements, the terms and provisions of which are
incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein.
4. This Agreement is not intended to amend, replace or supersede in any manner the Security
Interests granted by Debtor to Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the Exim Agreement
If any voluntary or involuntary proceedings are filed by or against Debtor in bankruptcy or for an
arrangement or reorganization or any other relief under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy
Laws or any other insolvency or debtors’ relief law from time to time in effect, the result of
which would be to set aside, terminate or otherwise invalidate this Agreement or the Security
Interests in the Intellectual Property Collateral granted under this Agreement, the Security
Interests granted to Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the Exim Agreement will not
be changed or otherwise effected in any respect and will continue to be valid, binding and
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. In the case of any such proceeding,
arrangement, reorganization or any other relief the Security Interests granted by Debtor to Secured
Party pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the Exim Agreement will be deemed incorporated herein by
this reference for the purpose of the recordation of this Agreement with the USPTO and the US
Copyright Office.
5. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed
and delivered will be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together will constitute but
one and the same instrument. Facsimile or PDF copies of the signatures set forth below will be
deemed to be original signatures for all purposes.
