Exhibit 10.36
AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE
(REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT LOANS)
$5,000,000 Wellesley, Massachusetts
As of May 3, 1996
(Originally dated
May 15, 1990)
For value received, the undersigned, VMARK SOFTWARE, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "BORROWER"), promises to pay to SILICON VALLEY BANK (the
"BANK") at the office of the Bank located at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, or to its order, the lesser of (a) FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
($5,000,000) or (b) the outstanding principal amount hereunder, on June 5, 1997
(the "MATURITY DATE"), together with interest on the principal amount hereof
from time to time outstanding at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Prime
Rate (as defined below) until the Maturity Date, payable monthly in arrears on
the fifth day of each calendar month occurring after the date hereof and on the
Maturity Date. The Borrower promises to pay on demand interest on any overdue
principal (and to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest) at a per annum
rate of interest five (5) percentage points higher than the rate of interest in
effect immediately prior to the time such amount became due. The Bank's "Prime
Rate" is the per annum rate of interest from time to time announced and made
effective by the Bank as its Prime Rate (which rate may or may not be the lowest
rate available from the Bank at any given time).
Computations of interest shall be made by the Bank on the basis of a
year of 360 days for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which
such interest is payable.
This promissory note amends and restates the terms and conditions of the
obligations of the Borrower under the promissory note dated May 15, 1990, as
previously amended (the "ORIGINAL NOTE"), by the Borrower to the Bank. Nothing
contained in this promissory note shall be deemed to create or represent the
issuance of new indebtedness or the exchange by the Borrower of the Original
Note for a new promissory note. This promissory note is the note relating to the
Revolving Line of Credit referred to in the Loan and Security Agreement dated as
of May 15, 1996 between the Bank and the Borrower (together with all related
schedules, and as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to
time, the "LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT"), and is subject to optional and
mandatory prepayment as provided therein, and is entitled to the benefits
thereof and of the other Loan Documents referred to therein. This note is
secured by the Loan and Security Agreement and by any other Security Instruments
referenced in the Loan and Security Agreement.
Each reference in each Loan Document (as defined in the Loan and
Security Agreement) to "the Note", "thereof", "therein", "thereunder", or words
of like import referring to the Original Note, shall mean and be a reference to
the Original Note, as amended and restated hereby.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under, and as defined in,
the Loan and Security Agreement, at the option of the Bank, the principal amount
then outstanding of and the accrued interest on the advances under this note and
all other amounts payable under this note shall become immediately due and
payable, without notice (including, without limitation, notice of intent to
accelerate), presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all
of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.
2
The Bank shall keep a record of the amount and the date of the making of
each advance pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement and each payment of
principal with respect thereto by maintaining a computerized record of such
information and printouts of such computerized record, which computerized
record, and the printouts thereof, shall constitute PRIMA FACIE evidence of the
accuracy of the information so endorsed.
The undersigned agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of the
Bank (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of
attorneys) in connection with the enforcement of this note and the other Loan
Documents and the preservation of their respective rights hereunder and
thereunder.
No delay or omission on the part of the Bank in exercising any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of the
Bank, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a
bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion. The
Borrower and every endorser or guarantor of this note regardless of the time,
order or place of signing waives presentment, demand, protest and notices of
every kind and assents to any one or more extensions or postponements of the
time of payment or any other indulgences, to any substitutions, exchanges or
releases of collateral for this note, and to the additions or releases of any
other parties or persons primarily or secondarily liable.
THIS NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO THE BANK AND ACCEPTED BY THE BANK IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WHICH ARISES OUT OF OR BY

AGREEMENT), OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
BY ITS EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS NOTE, THE BORROWER ACCEPTS FOR
ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE
NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT
JURISDICTION IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS (OR IF FOR ANY REASON ACCESS

AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY FINAL JUDGMENT RENDERED BY ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY SUCH
