In the event that Borrower fails to satisfy the depository relationship requirements set forth in the preceding sentence, such failure shall (A) automatically cause the then applicable Unused Fee to increase by one percentage point (1.00%) per annum for as long as such failure continues unremedied and (B) automatically cause the Margin Rate (as defined in the Note) to increase by two percentage points (2.00%) per annum for as long as such failure continues unremedied.
(t) Arrangement Fee. In connection with the Loan, Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee in the aggregate amount of $15,000.00 (the “Arrangement Fee”), payable as follows: (i) a fee in the amount of $7,500.00 upon the acceptance of a committed term sheet (the “Commitment Fee”), and (ii) a fee in the amount of $7,500.00 upon the execution of this Agreement. Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof, Borrower has paid the Commitment Fee in full to Lender.
(u) Unused Fee. So long as Lender has a commitment to advance funds hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee (the “Unused Fee”) for each day equal to the product of (i) fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Margin Rate (as defined in the Note) multiplied by (ii) the difference between (A) the amount of the Loan that Lender has a commitment to advance funds hereunder and (B) the aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Loan on such day, payable monthly in arrears. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower fails to satisfy the depository relationship requirements set forth in Section 5(s), such failure shall automatically cause the then applicable Unused Fee to increase by one percentage point (1.00%) per annum for so long as such failure continues unremedied.
6. FINANCIAL AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.
(a) Minimum Tangible Net Worth. At all times during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth of not less than $1,000,000.00, as of December 31 of each year. For purposes hereof, “Tangible Net Worth” shall mean (i) the shareholder equity of Borrower, less (ii) the aggregate amount of intangible assets of Borrower including, without limitation, goodwill, franchises, licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, service marks, and brand names, less (iii) the aggregate amount of advances made to Affiliates, subsidiaries, shareholders or officers of Borrower. This covenant shall be measured for compliance upon Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s audited annual and unaudited quarterly financial statements as required herein.
12
(b) Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. As of the last day of each fiscal quarter after the date hereof, Borrower shall maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.00. This covenant shall be measured for compliance quarterly on a rolling four quarter basis, upon Lender’s receipt of the financial statements as required herein, beginning on the first quarter ending after the date of this Agreement. For purposes hereof, “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” shall mean the ratio of (i) Fixed Charges to (ii) the sum of (a) the prior year current maturities of long term debt paid, plus (b) the prior year current maturities of leases paid, plus (c) interest expense on all obligations. For purposes hereof, “Fixed Charges” shall mean, with respect to any Person for any period, an amount equal to EBITDA, less unfinanced capital expenditures, less income taxes paid. “EBITDA” shall mean, with respect to any Person, the sum of net income, interest expense (including arrangement fees, commitment fees and insurance premiums in connection with any indebtedness), taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a trailing four quarter basis.
(c) Maximum Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio. As of the last day of each fiscal quarter after the date hereof, Borrower shall maintain a maximum Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio of not more than 2.50 to 1.00. For purposes hereof, “Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio” shall mean the ratio of (i) Funded Debt for all third-party contractual obligations to (ii) EBITDA (as defined above). “Funded Debt” shall mean total debt obligations of Borrower for borrowed money, plus all rental obligations of Borrower which, under United States GAAP, are or will be required to be capitalized on the books of Borrower, in each case taken at the amount thereof accounted for as indebtedness in accordance with such principles. This covenant shall be measured for compliance quarterly upon Lender’s receipt of the financial statements as required herein.
(d) Annual Financial Statements. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, Borrower shall (i) furnish Lender with annual unaudited financial statements, (ii) cause Delta Biologicals and Immunovision to furnish Lender with annual unaudited financial statements, and (iii) cause IVAX Diagnostics to furnish Lender with annual audited consolidated and consolidating financial statements each of which shall include a description of such company’s material contingent liabilities.

In connection with the delivery of such financial statements, Borrower’s and Guarantor’s chief financial officer, as applicable, shall certify the same to be correct and complete in all material respects.
(e) Quarterly Financial Statements. Within the earlier of (a) sixty (60) days after the end of each fiscal quarter (except the last fiscal quarter of any fiscal year) and (b) the date such statements are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Borrower shall (i) furnish Lender with quarterly unaudited financial statements, each of which shall include a description of all of its contingent liabilities, (ii) cause Delta Biologicals and Immunovision to furnish Lender with quarterly unaudited financial statements, each of which shall include a description of all of such entity’s respective contingent liabilities, (iii) cause IVAX Diagnostics to furnish Lender with quarterly audited consolidated and consolidating financial statements, each of which shall include a description of its material contingent liabilities, and (iv) furnish Lender with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Schedule (6)(e), duly executed by the chief financial officer of Borrower, (A) providing a calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of Borrower, the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio of Borrower and, upon delivery of the annual financial statements, the Minimum Tangible Net Worth of Borrower, each in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6, and (B) certifying that his or her review has not disclosed the existence of a noncompliance of the covenants set forth in this Agreement. In connection with the delivery of such financial statements, Borrower’s and Guarantor’s chief financial officer, as applicable, shall certify the same to be correct and complete in all material respects.
13
(f) Borrowing Base Certificates. Together with each Notice of Borrowing and within ten (10) days after the end of each calendar month, Borrower shall furnish Lender with a borrowing base certificate, in the form attached hereto as Schedule 6(f), which shall reflect the calculation of the Borrowing Base as of such date and resulting availability under the Note, certified by the chief financial officer of Borrower.
