Exhibit
10.1
THIRD
AMENDMENT
TO
THIS
THIRD AMENDMENT to
Loan and Security Agreement
(this “Amendment”)
is entered into on August 24, 2007, by and between
SILICON
VALLEY BANK (“Bank”)
and
the
following (collectively, jointly and severally, the "Borrower") whose address
is
00000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000:
NORTH
AMERICAN SCIENTIFIC,
INC., a
Delaware corporation (“NASI”);
NORTH
AMERICAN SCIENTIFIC, INC., a California corporation (“NASI-CA”);
and
NOMOS
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“NOMOS”).
Recitals
A. Bank
and
Borrower have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement, with an
Effective Date of October 5, 2005 (as the same has been, and may hereafter
from
time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan
Agreement”).
B. Bank
has
extended credit to Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.
C. The
parties desire to amend the Loan Agreement as herein set forth.
Agreement
Now,
Therefore,
in
consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are 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. Amendments
to Loan Agreement. The
Loan
Agreement is hereby amended as follows, effective as of the date
hereof:
1
2.1 Limited
Waiver Regarding Minimum Tangible Net Worth Financial Covenant
Defaults. Borrower
has advised Bank
that
Borrower has failed to comply with the Minimum Tangible Net Worth Financial
Covenant set forth in Section 5 of the Amended and Restated Schedule 2 to Loan
and Security Agreement for the compliance periods ending May 31, 2007 and June
30, 2007 (the “Minimum TNW Covenant Defaults”). Bank and Borrower agree that the
Borrower's Minimum TNW Covenant Defaults are hereby waived. It is understood
by
the parties hereto, however, that such waiver does not constitute a waiver
of
any other provision or term of the Loan Agreement or any related document,
nor
an agreement to waive in the future this covenant or any other provision or
term
of the Loan Agreement or any related document.
2.2 Limited
Waiver Regarding Partners For Growth Cross-Default. Borrower
has advised Bank that Borrower has received a default letter from Partners
for
Growth informing the Borrower that it was in default under the Borrower’s loan
agreement with Partners for Growth (the “PFG Loan Agreement”). The defaults
under the PFG Loan Agreement constitute an Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement (the “PFG Cross-Default”). Bank and Borrower agree that the Borrower's
PFG Cross-Default is hereby waived. It is understood by the parties hereto,
however, that such waiver does not constitute a waiver of any other provision
or
term of the Loan Agreement or any related document, nor an agreement to waive
in
the future this covenant or any other provision or term of the Loan Agreement
or
any related document.

the
Warrant Price, all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Article 2
of
this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set
forth in this Warrant.
ARTICLE
1. EXERCISE.
1.1 Method
of Exercise.
Holder
may exercise this Warrant by delivering a duly executed Notice of Exercise
in
substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the
Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Article
1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check, wire transfer (to an
account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to
the
Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being
purchased.
1.2 Conversion
Right.
In lieu
of exercising this Warrant as specified in Article 1.1, Holder may from time
to
time convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares
determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or
other securities otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant minus the
aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares by (b) the fair market value of one
Share. The fair market value of the Shares shall be determined pursuant to
Article 1.3.
11
1.3 Fair
Market Value.
If the
Company’s common stock is traded in a public market and the Shares are common
stock, the fair market value of each Share shall be the closing price of a
Share
reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers its Notice
of
Exercise to the Company. . If the Company’s common stock is not traded in a
public market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market
value in its reasonable good faith judgment.
1.4 Delivery
of Certificate and New Warrant.
Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant and, if applicable,
the
Company receives payment of the aggregate Warrant Price, the Company shall
deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant
has
not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant
representing the Shares not so acquired.
1.5 Replacement
of Warrants.
On
receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or
destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory
in
form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation on surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu
of
this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.
1.6 Treatment
of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company.
1.6.1 "Acquisition".
For
the purpose of this Warrant, "Acquisition" means any sale, license, or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any
reorganization, consolidation, or merger of the Company where the holders of
the
Company's securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50%
of
the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the
transaction.
1.6.2 |
Treatment
of Warrant at Acquisition.
|
A) Upon
the
written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an
Acquisition that is not an asset sale and in which the sole consideration is
cash, either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under
this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to
the
consummation of such Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the
Warrant, this Warrant will expire upon the consummation of such Acquisition.
The
Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating
to
the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may
request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such
notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior
to
the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
B) Upon
the
written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an
Acquisition that is an “arms length” sale of all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate
(as defined below) of the Company (a “True Asset Sale”), either (a) Holder shall
exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise
will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such
Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant
will continue until the Expiration Date if the Company continues as a going
concern following the closing of any such True Asset Sale. The Company shall
provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing
(together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in
connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice),
which
is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing
of
the proposed Acquisition.
12
C) Upon
the
closing of any Acquisition other than those particularly described in
subsections (A) and (B) above, the successor entity shall assume the obligations
of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities,
cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise
of
the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding
on
the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant Price
and/or number of Shares shall be adjusted accordingly.
As
used
herein “Affiliate”
shall
mean any person or entity that owns or controls directly or indirectly ten
(10)
percent or more of the stock of Company, any person or entity that controls
or
is controlled by or is under common control with such persons or entities,
and
each of such person’s or entity’s officers, directors, joint venturers or
partners, as applicable.
ARTICLE
2. ADJUSTMENTS
TO THE SHARES.
2.1 Stock
Dividends, Splits, Etc.
If the
Company declares or pays a dividend on the Shares payable in common stock,
or
other securities, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired,
Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of
securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares
of record as of the date the dividend occurred. If the Company subdivides the
Shares by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares or
takes
any other action which increase the amount of stock into which the Shares are
convertible, the number of shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately
increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased, but the
aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of shares purchasable
under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. If the outstanding
shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into
a
lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased
(but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of Shares
purchasable under this Warrant, as adjusted, shall remain the same), and the
number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.
2.2 Reclassification,
Exchange, Combinations or Substitution.
Upon
any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in
a
change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise
or
conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise
or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property
that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been
exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution,
or
other event. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder an
amendment to this Warrant setting forth the number and kind of such new
securities or other property issuable upon exercise or conversion of this
Warrant as a result of such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other
event that results in a change of the number and/or class of securities issuable
upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant. The amendment to this Warrant
shall
provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without
limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price (but not to the aggregate purchase
price payable for the total number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant
(as
adjusted), which shall remain the same) and to the number of securities or
property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this
Article 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges,
substitutions, or other events.
13
2.3 Adjustments
for Diluting Issuances.
In the
event the Company, within one year of the date hereof should issue additional
shares of Common Stock, or options, warrants or other securities (including
units comprising shares of Common Stock and other securities or rights)
convertible into Common Stock (collectively, “Convertible Securities”), at a per
share Value attributable to Common Stock less than the Warrant Price in effect
immediately prior to such issuance, the Warrant Price shall be reduced to such
lower Value; provided however, that no adjustment shall be made with respect
to
issuances by the Company of up to an aggregate of 6,968,978 shares of Common
Stock at not less than the then fair market value per share of Common Stock
to
its officers, directors and employees pursuant to its 2006 Stock Plan, 2000
Employee Stock Purchase Plan and 2003 Non-Employee Directors’ Equity
Compensation Plan and any other employee incentive plans approved by the
Company’s stockholders. In addition to a reduction in the Warrant Price as
aforesaid, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be
proportionately increased (such that the percentage of the total equity
obtainable upon exchange remains the same). For purposes hereof, the term
“Value” shall take into account the effective price of any security which is
comprised of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) and other securities
or
rights, such as, for example, a unit which includes Common Stock and a warrant
to purchase Common Stock, a Convertible Security or right (such as a stock
appreciation right).
2.4 No
Impairment.
The
Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through
a
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue,
or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid
the
observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under
this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in
carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder's rights under
this
Article against impairment.
2.5 Fractional
Shares.
No
fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant
and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest
whole
Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion
of
the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by
paying Holder the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by
the
fair market value of a full Share.
2.6 Certificate
as to Adjustments.
Upon
each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly notify Holder
in writing, and, at the Company’s expense, promptly compute such adjustment, and
furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth
such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company
shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the
Warrant Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments
leading to such Warrant Price.
14

3. REPRESENTATIONS
AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
3.1 Representations
and Warranties.
The
Company represents and warrants to the Holder as follows: All Shares which
may
be issued upon the exercise of the purchase right represented by this Warrant,
and all securities, if any, issuable upon conversion of the Shares, shall,
upon
issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and
free of any liens and encumbrances except for restrictions on transfer provided
for herein or under applicable federal and state securities laws.
3.2 Notice
of Certain Events.
If the
Company proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution upon
any of its stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and
whether or not a regular cash dividend; (b) to offer for sale any shares of
the
Company's capital stock (or other securities convertible into such capital
stock), other than (i) pursuant to the Company's stock option or other
compensatory plans, (ii) in connection with commercial credit arrangements
or
equipment financings, or (iii) in connection with strategic transactions for
purposes other than capital raising; (c) to effect any reclassification or
recapitalization of any of its stock; (d) to merge or consolidate with or into
any other corporation, or sell, lease, license, or convey all or substantially
all of its assets, or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up; or (e) offer holders
of
registration rights the opportunity to participate in an underwritten public
offering of the Company's securities for cash, then, in connection with each
such event, the Company shall give Holder: (1) at least 10 days prior written
notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend,
distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the
holders of common stock will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights
to
vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (a) and (b) above; (2)
in
the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least 10 days prior
written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the
date on which the holders of common stock will be entitled to exchange their
common stock for securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence
of
such event); and (3) in the case of the matter referred to in (e) above, the
same notice as is given to the holders of such registration rights.
3.3 Registration
Under Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The
Company represents and warrants that no shareholders or warrant holders of
the
Company have contractual rights to cause the Company to register their shares
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and accordingly no such rights
are
being granted to Holder with respect to the Shares.
3.4 No
Shareholder Rights.
Except
as provided in this Warrant, the Holder will not have any rights as a
shareholder of the Company until the exercise of this Warrant.
ARTICLE
4. REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES OF THE HOLDER.
The
Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
4.1 Purchase
for Own Account.
This
Warrant and the securities to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by
the
Holder will be acquired for investment for the Holder’s account, not as a
nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution
within the meaning of the Act. Holder also represents that the Holder has not
been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring this Warrant or the
Shares.
15
4.2 Disclosure
of Information.
The
Holder has received or has had full access to all the information it considers
necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect
to
the acquisition of this Warrant and its underlying securities. The Holder
further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the
Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant
and
its underlying securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent
the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable
effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to the Holder
or to which the Holder has access.
4.3 Investment
Experience.
The
Holder understands that the purchase of this Warrant and its underlying
securities involves substantial risk. The Holder has experience as an investor
in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that the
Holder can bear the economic risk of such Holder’s investment in this Warrant
and its underlying securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial
or business matters that the Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of its investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and/or
has
a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain
of
its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that
enables the Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial
circumstances of such persons.
4.4
Accredited
Investor Status.
The
Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D
promulgated under the Act.
4.5 The
Act.
The
Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise
or
conversion hereof have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a
specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things,
the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein. The
Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issued upon any exercise
or
conversion hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered
under
the Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws, or unless
exemption from such registration and qualification are otherwise available.
ARTICLE
5. MISCELLANEOUS.
5.1 Term:
This
Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time
on
or before the Expiration Date.

Warrant and the Shares (and the securities issuable, directly or indirectly,
upon conversion of the Shares, if any) shall be imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:
THIS
WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE HEREUNDER HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY

BE
OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND
UNTIL

5.3 Compliance
with Securities Laws on Transfer.
This
Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (and the
securities issuable, directly or indirectly, upon conversion of the Shares,
if
any) may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance
with applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and the
transferee (including, without limitation, the delivery of investment
representation letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, as reasonably requested by the Company). The Company shall not require
Holder to provide an opinion of counsel if the transfer is to Holder’s parent
company, SVB Financial Group (formerly Silicon Valley Bancshares), or any other
affiliate of Holder. Additionally, the Company shall also not require an opinion
of counsel, so long as Rule 144 remains in effect in relevant part in
substantially its current form, if (a) in the reasonable judgment of the
Company, based in part upon reasonably detailed representations by the Holder
or
the selling broker, as appropriate, there is no material question as to the
availability of current information as referenced in Rule 144(c), Holder has
complied with Rule 144(d) and the selling broker has complied with Rule 144(f),

Assignment substantially in the form of Appendix 2. Subject to the provisions

and any subsequent Holder may transfer all or part of this Warrant or the Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or the Shares issuable directly or
indirectly, upon conversion of the Shares, if any) to any transferee, provided,
however, in connection with any such transfer, SVB Financial Group or any
subsequent Holder will give the Company notice of the portion of the Warrant
being transferred with the name, address and taxpayer identification number
of
the transferee and Holder will surrender this Warrant to the Company for
reissuance to the transferee(s) (and Holder if applicable). The Company may
refuse to transfer this Warrant or the Shares to any person who directly
competes with the Company, unless, in either case, the stock of the Company
is
