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.
1
2. Joinder.
2.1 New Borrower. TransEnterix International hereby is added as a “Borrower” under the Loan Agreement. All references in the Agreement to “Borrower” shall hereafter mean and include the Existing Borrowers and TransEnterix International individually and collectively, jointly and severally; and TransEnterix International shall hereafter have all rights, duties and obligations of “Borrower” thereunder.
2.2 Joinder to Loan Agreement. TransEnterix International hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the Loan Documents, and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and Loan Documents, as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, TransEnterix International agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with Existing Borrowers, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Any Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each Borrower hereby appoints the others as agent for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement. 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.
2.3 Subrogation and Similar Rights. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law and (b) any right to require Collateral Agent or any Lender to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Collateral Agent and any Lender may each exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents or any related documents, until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and at such time as each Lender’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, 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 Collateral Agent and/or Lenders under this Amendment and the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any 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 this Amendment, 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 this Amendment, 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 Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
2.4 Grant of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance of all of the Obligations, TransEnterix International hereby grants to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of TransEnterix International’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. TransEnterix International 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 Collateral Agent and each Lender that are reasonably deemed necessary by Collateral Agent or any Lender in order to grant a valid, perfected first priority security interest to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, in the Collateral. TransEnterix International hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions in order to perfect or protect Collateral Agent’s and/or any Lender’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by any Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Collateral Agent and each Lender under the Code.
2
2.5 Representations and Warranties. TransEnterix International hereby represents and warrants to Collateral Agent and each Lender that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of Existing Borrowers are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to Existing Borrowers and TransEnterix International, with the same force and effect as if TransEnterix International were named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents in addition to Existing Borrowers.
