Section 6.           Rights to Payment and Pledged Collateral.

 

(a)            Collection of Rights to Payment. Until the Administrative Agent has given prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 6 (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no such notice may be given except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) to collect any Rights to Payment of any Grantor, each such Grantor shall endeavor in the first instance to diligently collect all amounts due or to become due on or with respect to the Rights to Payment held by such Grantor in the ordinary course of business and substantially in accordance with past practice. At the request of the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all remittances received by such Grantor shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent and, in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions, remitted to the Administrative Agent or deposited to an account with the Administrative Agent in the form received (with any necessary endorsements or instruments of assignment or transfer).

 

 14 

 

(b)            Pledged Collateral. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Administrative Agent shall have given prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 6, each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any cash dividend on or other cash distribution or payment, if any, in respect of the Pledged Collateral, to the extent not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents, as applicable. At the request of the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive all distributions and payments of any nature with respect to any Pledged Collateral, and all such distributions or payments received by such Grantor shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent and, in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions, remitted to the Administrative Agent or deposited to an account with the Administrative Agent in the form received (with any necessary endorsements or instruments of assignment or transfer). Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default any such distributions and payments with respect to any such Pledged Collateral held in any Securities Account shall be held and retained in such Securities Account, in each case as part of the Collateral hereunder. Additionally, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, following prior or concurrent written notice to any applicable Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 6, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Collateral held by such Grantor, and to exercise all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining thereto, as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the foregoing rights afforded to it and shall not be responsible to such Grantor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so.

 

(c)            Voting Prior to and Upon an Event of Default.

 

(i)             Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing and Administrative Agent shall have given prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 6, each Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Collateral held by such Grantor and to give consents, ratifications and waivers in respect thereof, and shall retain the power to control the direction, management and policies of any Person comprising such Pledged Collateral to the same extent as such Grantor would if such Pledged Collateral were not pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would have the effect of materially and adversely affect the Secured Parties interest under the Loan Documents or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Documents. If applicable, such Grantor shall be deemed the beneficial owner of all such Pledged Collateral for purposes of Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and agrees to file all reports required to be filed by beneficial owners of securities thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this subsection (c) and to receive the distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to this subsection (c).

 

 15 

 

(ii)            In addition to each of the foregoing and any other rights of Administrative Agent as set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents, each Grantor grants to Administrative Agent (through itself, its representatives, designees or agents), an irrevocable proxy, to vote all or any part of such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral from time to time, in each case in any manner Administrative Agent deems advisable in its sole discretion, either for or against any or all matters submitted, or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners, managers or members, as the case may be, and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges, and remedies to which any such shareholders, partners, managers or members would be entitled (including, without limitation, giving or withholding written consents, ratifications, and waivers with respect to the Pledged Collateral, calling special meetings of the holders of the Pledged Collateral of any issuer and voting at such meetings). The irrevocable proxy granted hereby is effective automatically, without the necessity that any other action (including, without limitation, that any transfer of any of the Pledged Collateral be recorded on the Books of the relevant Grantor or issuer) be taken by any Person (including the relevant Grantor or issuer of any Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof), is coupled with an interest, and shall be irrevocable, shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of any relevant Grantor, and shall terminate only on the Maturity Date. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that prior to the expiration of such IRREVOCABLE PROXY pursuant to applicable Law, if applicable, such Grantor will reaffirm such irrevocable proxy in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall only exercise the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 6(c)(ii) upon providing prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 6 and solely while any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and immediately upon waiver or cure of such Event of Default (and so long as no separate or future Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing), shall immediately cease (or take all reasonably necessary actions available) to exercise such irrevocable proxy.

 

(iii)           Each Grantor covenants and agrees that on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the date of expiration (by operation of applicable law) of the irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to this subsection (c) hereto, such Grantor shall automatically be deemed to grant the Administrative Agent a new irrevocable proxy, on the same terms as those previously granted pursuant to this subsection (c). Upon the reasonable written request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, such further evidence of such irrevocable proxy or such further irrevocable proxies to enable the Secured Party to vote the Pledged Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

 

(d)            Certain Other Administrative Matters. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under Section 10, the Administrative Agent may cause any of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into its name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (subject to the revocable rights specified in this Section 6). Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at all times have the right to exchange uncertificated Pledged Collateral for certificated Pledged Collateral, and to exchange certificated Pledged Collateral for certificates of larger or smaller denominations, for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

 

 16 

 

Section 7.           Authorization; Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Subject to any notice requirements expressly set forth herein, in addition to (and not in limitation of) any other right or remedy provided to the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to, in the name of any Grantor, or in the name of the Administrative Agent or otherwise, without notice to or assent by any such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and any of the Administrative Agent’s officers or employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to:

(c)            sign and endorse any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral, warehouse or storage receipts, drafts against customers or other obligors, assignments, notices of assignment, verifications and notices to customers or other obligors;

 

(d)            notify the U.S. Postal Service and other postal authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such address as the Administrative Agent may designate; and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, establish with any Person lockbox or similar arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment of such Grantor;

 

(e)            receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor;

 

(f)            send requests for verification of Rights to Payment to the customers or other obligors of such Grantor;

(h)            assert, adjust, sue for, compromise or release any Claims under any policies of insurance;

 

(i)             exercise dominion and control over, and refuse to permit further withdrawals from, any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commodity Accounts or any other account, in each case, other than Excluded Accounts, of such Grantor maintained with the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other bank, financial institution or other Person;

 

 17 

 

(j)             notify each Person maintaining lockbox or similar arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment of such Grantor to remit all amounts representing collections on such Rights to Payment directly to the Administrative Agent;

 

(k)            ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all Rights to Payment of such Grantor, enforce payment or any other rights in respect of the Rights to Payment and other Collateral, grant consents, agree to any amendments, modifications or waivers of the agreements and documents governing such Rights to Payment and other Collateral, and otherwise file any Claims, take any action or institute, defend, settle or adjust any actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the Collateral, as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to maintain, preserve and protect the Collateral, to collect the Collateral or to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral;

 

(l)             execute any and all applications, documents, papers and instruments necessary for the Administrative Agent to use, prosecute, maintain, enforce, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral and grant or issue any license or sublicense, or any other right with respect to, any Intellectual Property Collateral, in each case only to the extent of such Grantor’s right, title and interest therein;

 

(m)            execute any and all endorsements, assignments or other documents and instruments necessary to sell, lease, assign, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Collateral, in each case only to the extent of such Grantor’s right, title and interest therein;

 

(n)            execute and deliver to any securities intermediary or other Person any entitlement order or other notice, document or instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Deposit Accounts and Investment Property of such Grantor and the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein; and

 

(o)            execute any and all such other documents and instruments, and do any and all acts and things for and on behalf of such Grantor, which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

 

The Administrative Agent agrees that, except upon the occurrence and only during the continuation of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney, or any rights granted to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to clauses (b) through (o). The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as the Lenders have any Commitments or the Secured Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made) have not been indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

 

Section 8.           Agent Performance of Grantor Obligations. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at the direction of the Required Lenders, perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under or in connection with this Agreement, and such Grantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket amounts paid, or reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred, by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.

 

 18 

 

Section 9.           Agent’s Duties. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to any Grantor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of Collateral in the Administrative Agent’s possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Collateral.

 

Section 10.         Remedies.

 

(a)            Remedies. Subject to any notice requirements expressly set forth herein, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty or any other Loan Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the NY UCC and other applicable Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default:

 

(i)             The Administrative Agent may peaceably enter any premises of such Grantor, take possession of any Collateral, remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises of such Grantor or elsewhere, or, in the case of Equipment, render it nonfunctional, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or sue for all or any part of the Collateral, as the Administrative Agent may determine.

 

(ii)            The Administrative Agent may require such Grantor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent, at any place and time reasonably designated by the Administrative Agent.

 

(iii)           The Administrative Agent may use or transfer any of such Grantor’s rights and interests in any Intellectual Property Collateral, including by license, by sublicense (to the extent permitted by an applicable license and to the extent of such Grantor’s rights, title and interest therein) or otherwise, on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent may determine.

 

(iv)           The Administrative Agent may secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof (to the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Law).

 

(v)            The Administrative Agent may withdraw (or cause to be withdrawn) any and all funds from any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts, in each case, other than Excluded Accounts.

 

 19 

 

(vi)           The Administrative Agent may sell, resell, lease, use, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of such Grantor’s assets, without charge or liability to the Administrative Agent therefor) at public or private sale, by one or more Contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as the Administrative Agent deems advisable; provided, however, that such Grantor shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption such Grantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. The Administrative Agent shall give such Grantor such notice of any public or private sale as may be required by the NY UCC or other applicable Law. Such Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale.

 

(vii)          Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Secured Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Secured Obligations, all without affecting the Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s rights against such Grantor. Such Grantor waives any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to pursue any third Person for any of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If the Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, such Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by the Administrative Agent and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Administrative Agent may resell the Collateral and the Grantors shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale.

 

(b)            License. In addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights or remedies provided herein or by applicable Law, for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Section 10 or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide and assignable right and license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to such Grantor, but exercisable only upon the occurrence and only during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided that any license, transfer or other right granted or made during the continuance of an Event of Default shall persist thereafter) to use, exploit, reproduce, display, perform, modify, sell, transfer, assign, otherwise dispose of, license, sublicense, prosecute, maintain and enforce any Intellectual Property Collateral, in any form or medium, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent.

 

 20 

 

(c)            Application of Proceeds. The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of any Grantor’s Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of such Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations shall be promptly paid over to such Grantor or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the NY UCC or other applicable Law. Each Grantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral.

 

Section 11.         Certain Waivers. Each Grantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) any right of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Secured Obligations; (b) any right to require the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties (i) to proceed against any Person, (ii) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s or any of the other Secured Parties’ power, or (iv) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (c) all Claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral.

 

Section 12.         Notices. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in the manner and to the addresses specified in Section 14.02 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 13.         No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Section 18.         Entire Agreement; Amendment.

This Agreement shall not be amended except by the written agreement of the parties as provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 19.         Severability. If any provision hereof is found by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by any Law the parties agree that such invalidity or unenforceability shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

 

 22

Section 21.         No Inconsistent Requirements. Each Grantor acknowledges that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and agrees that all such covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all shall be performed and satisfied in accordance with their respective terms. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to conflict with the Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall govern.

 

Section 22.         Accession. At such time following the date hereof as any Person (an “Acceding Grantor”) is required to accede hereto pursuant to the terms of Section 8.11 of the Credit Agreement, such Acceding Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an accession agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A (an “Accession Agreement”), signifying its agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Grantor to the same extent as if such Acceding Grantor had originally executed this Agreement as of the date hereof.

 

Section 23.         Termination.

 

(a)            Upon the termination of the Commitments of the Lenders and payment and performance in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made), the security interests created by this Agreement shall immediately and automatically terminate and the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor such documents and instruments reasonably requested by such Grantor as shall be necessary to evidence the termination or release of all security interests given by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent hereunder and deliver to such Grantor, at the expense of the Borrower, any portion of the released Collateral that is in the possession of the Administrative Agent.

to the Security Agreement

 

FORM OF LANDLORD CONSENT

 

This LANDLORD CONSENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of [ ], 20[ ], by and between [INSERT NAME OF LANDLORD] (“Landlord”), [INSERT NAME OF TENANT] (the “Tenant”) and Perceptive Credit Holdings V, LP, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns, the “Agent”) with reference to the following facts:

 

WHEREAS, Landlord and the Tenant have entered into that certain lease, dated as of [ ], 20[ ] (the “Lease”) for certain premises (the “Premises”) more fully described in Annex A;

 

WHEREAS, the Tenant has entered into (i) that certain Credit Agreement and Guaranty, dated as of [ ], 2025 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented, renewed, extended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among TELA Bio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), certain Subsidiaries of the Borrower that may be required to provide Guaranties from time to time thereunder, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Agent and (ii) that certain Security Agreement, dated as of [ ], 2025 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), among the Borrower, certain Subsidiaries of the Borrower from time to time party thereto [including the Tenant], and the Agent; and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Agent has obtained a continuing security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Tenant and the other Obligors, including such assets located within the Premises (the “Collateral”), until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and all Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made) have been paid in full indefeasibly in cash. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.Landlord waives and releases each and every right which Landlord now has under applicable Law or by virtue of the Lease for the Premises now in effect, to levy or distrain upon for rent, in arrears, in advance or both, or to claim or assert title to the Collateral that is located on the Premises.

 

2.The Collateral (including, without limitation, such assets constituting equipment and trade fixtures) shall be considered personal property and shall not be considered part of the Premises regardless of whether or by what means it is or may become attached or affixed to the Premises. Landlord shall provide prompt written notice to the Agent at the address set forth in its signature block of any early termination or expiration of the Lease or any abandonment of the Premises by the Tenant.

 

 E-1 

 

3.So long as the Tenant remains in possession of the Premises, Landlord will not dispose of any of the Collateral nor assert any right or interest therein. If any Collateral remains on the Premises after the Tenant has vacated the Premises (whether upon early termination or expiration of the Lease or abandonment of the Premises or otherwise), Landlord (i) will not dispose of any of the Collateral nor assert any right or interest therein, unless the Agent has had a reasonable period of time (in any case, not less than thirty (30) days after the Agent has actual knowledge that the Tenant has vacated the Premises) to exercise the Agent’s rights in and to the Collateral, and (ii) will permit the Agent, or its agents or representatives, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice by the Agent to Landlord at the address set forth in its signature block, to enter upon the Premises during such thirty (30) day period (or such longer period as required) for the purpose of exercising any right the Agent may have under the terms of the Credit Agreement or Security Agreement, at law, or in equity, including, without limitation, the right to remove the Collateral.

 

If any order or injunction is issued or stay granted which prohibits the Agent from exercising any of its rights hereunder, then, at the Agent’s option, the period set forth in this Paragraph 3 shall be stayed during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter for the greater of (i) the number of days remaining for the Agent to perform under this Paragraph 3 or (ii) thirty (30) days.

 

4.The Agent and the Tenant agree, jointly and severally, promptly to repair any damage to the Premises caused by the Agent’s or its agent’s removal of the Collateral or, if Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall elect to make such repairs, to pay to Landlord promptly the reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. The Agent hereby indemnifies Landlord for any claim, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ documented out of pocket fees) arising out of or in connection with the Agent’s or its agent’s entry upon the Premises and removal of the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent shall not (i) be liable for any diminution in value of the Premises caused by the absence of any Collateral so removed or (ii) have any duty or obligation to remove or dispose of any Collateral or any other property left on the Premises by the Tenant.

 

5.This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; provided that Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law shall apply.

Re:           [INSERT NAME OF RELEVANT OBLIGOR]

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are the agent for certain lending institutions that are making or have made certain credit extensions to TELA Bio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”)[, to which [____] (the “Company”) has provided a guaranty thereof]4. The [Company][Borrower] has entered into (i) that certain Credit Agreement and Guaranty, dated as of [ ], 2025 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented, renewed, extended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the [Company][Borrower], certain Subsidiaries of the [Company][Borrower] that may be required to provide Guaranties from time to time thereunder, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and us, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Agent”) and (ii) that certain Security Agreement, dated as of [ ], 2025 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), among the [Company][Borrower], certain Subsidiaries of the [Company][Borrower] from time to time party thereto and us, as administrative agent.

 

Pursuant to the Security Agreement, we have obtained a continuing security interest in all of the Company’s personal property (the “Collateral”), until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and all Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made) have been paid in full indefeasibly in cash. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

 

 

4 Insert if obligor is a Guarantor.

 

 F-1 

 

We understand that the Company has made arrangements with you to maintain from time to time certain Collateral at the location(s) described in Annex A hereto (the “Premises”). (The agreement between you and the Company governing the location of the Collateral at the Premises shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Agreement.”)

 

To the extent Collateral is located at the Premises, we will require certain agreements and acknowledgments from you. Accordingly, we would appreciate your execution of this letter.

 

By your signature below you acknowledge notice of our security interest in the Collateral.

 

This letter will also confirm your agreement to the following:

 

The Collateral located at the Premises will be and remain personal property of the Company, and such Collateral will not be deemed a fixture or part of the Premises.

 

Until such time as the security interests in the Collateral granted to us by the Company have been terminated, you disclaim any liens on, claims to, or interest in the Collateral and the proceeds thereof and agree not to assert any claim against the Collateral or proceeds thereof.

 

You will allow us, or our auditors or other agents or representatives, reasonable access to the Premises from time to time to inspect the Collateral in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

 

In the event that the Company defaults with respect to its obligations under the Agreement or abandons or surrenders the Premises, or you desire or elect to terminate or exercise remedies under the Agreement for any reason, you will provide notice to us in writing of this fact, at the address provided beneath our signature block, prior to your terminating or exercising remedies under the Agreement and retaking possession of the Premises. In such event, you will allow us, at our option, thirty (30) days from our receipt of such notice (or such longer period as you may agree) in which to cure or request the Company to cure such default. If any order or injunction is issued or stays granted which prohibits us from exercising any of our rights hereunder, then the period set forth in this paragraph shall be stayed during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter for the greater of (i) the number of days remaining for us to exercise our rights under this paragraph or (ii) thirty (30) days.

 

Upon our request, you will grant us, or our agents or representatives on our behalf, access to the Premises at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice so that we may preserve, protect and enforce our security interests. In such event you will allow us, or our agents or representatives on our behalf, access to the Premises to assemble, appraise, repair, service and maintain the Collateral, to show the Collateral to potential purchasers or lessees, to prepare the Collateral for removal for return to us or for other sale or disposition and to remove the Collateral from the Premises. At your option, you may elect to have an agent accompany us or our agents or representatives while on the Premises; provided that your failure to have your agent accompany us or our agents or representatives will not in any way limit our right to enter upon the Premises. While on the Premises, we will use reasonable efforts so as not to disturb any other tenant, occupant or you. We will reimburse you for, or repair, at our cost, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs of any damage to the Premises caused by the removal of the Collateral or otherwise caused by us or our agents or representatives during our possession of the Premises.

 

 F-2 

 

You will permit us to remain on the Premises for a period of up to thirty (30) days (or such longer period as you may agree) following receipt by us of written notice from you that you are in possession and control of the Premises, have terminated the Agreement and are directing removal of the Collateral. Any extensions of the foregoing period shall be with your written consent.

 

Nothing herein contained will be deemed to make us a tenant at the Premises, or be deemed to delegate any duties or obligations to us under the Agreement or constitute any assumption thereof by us of any unperformed or unpaid obligations of the Company under the Agreement. This letter will be governed and controlled by, and interpreted under, the laws of the State of New York. You will notify any purchaser or successor owner or landlord of the Premises of the existence of this letter, which will be binding upon your executors, administrators, successors, transferees or assignees.

 

This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by f electronic transmission (in PDF format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. Any signature (including, without limitation, (x) any electronic symbol or process attached to, or associated with, a Contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such Contract or record and (y) any pdf signature) hereto or the other Loan Documents or to any other certificate, agreement or document related to any Loan Document or the Transactions, and any contract formation or record-keeping, in each case, through electronic means, shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state Law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and the parties hereto hereby waive any objection to the contrary.
