Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

MidCap Loan

 

On September 30, 2013, Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company” or “Furiex”) and our wholly owned subsidiaries, APBI Holdings, LLC, Development Partners, LLC and GenuPro, Inc. (the “Subsidiaries”) , as Borrower, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with MidCap Funding III, LLC (“Midcap”), in its capacity as administrative agent (“Agent”) and Midcap, Midcap Funding V, LLC and Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) as lenders (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which Furiex borrowed an aggregate of $42.0 million (the “Loan”). The Loan Agreement amends our prior loan agreement with MidCap and SVB for $40.0 million by, among other things, resetting the outside maturity date to October 1, 2018, deferring payment of principal until May 2014, and increasing the total amount of the loan to $42.0 million.

 

The Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 10.00% per annum. Interest accrues daily and is payable on the first day of the following month, in arrears. Principal payments on the Loan Agreement begin on May 15, 2014, with additional payments due on August 15, September 15, and November 15, 2014. Beginning on February 15, 2015 and continuing through and including the maturity date, principal payments are due each February, May, August and November. Beginning with the September 15, 2014 payment, the principal payments will consist of an amount equal to either 25% or 50% of our alogliptin royalties, subject to minimum and maximum dollar amounts of payments ranging from a minimum of $1.26 million to a maximum $4.20 million each quarter, dependent on whether we have submitted to the FDA a new drug application for eluxadoline.

 

We must pay a final payment fee equal to 3.5% of the original principal amount of the Loan and a prepayment fee of 3.5% in year one, 3.0% in year two, and 2.0% in year three of the prepayment amount upon the acceleration of the Loan due to an event of default or if we opt to prepay the Loan.

 

The obligations of the Company and our Subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s and our Subsidiaries’ existing and after-acquired assets, excluding intellectual property (but including the proceeds thereof). The obligations of the Company and our Subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement are also secured by a first priority lien on the equity interests of the Company in our Subsidiaries.

 

Eshelman Loan

 

On September 30, 2013, the Company and our Subsidiaries, as Borrower, also entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Eshelman Loan Agreement”) with Fredric N. Eshelman, our chairman of the board and 27.5% stockholder (“Eshelman”), pursuant to which Furiex borrowed $15.0 million (the “Eshelman Loan”). The Eshelman Loan becomes due and payable on the earlier of January 1, 2019 or 91 days after the MidCap Loan has been paid in full.

 

 

 
2

 

 

The Eshelman Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 9.00% per annum. Interest accrues daily and is payable on the first day of the following month, in arrears. Principal payments of $166,700 on the Eshelman Loan Agreement begin on October 1, 2014, and continue on a monthly basis thereafter through and including the maturity date, subject to the condition that, to the extent provided in the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement with MidCap (the “Subordination Agreement”), if then in effect, we have $7.5 million of unrestricted cash on hand after giving effect to each such principal payment. We may prepay the Eshelman Loan without penalty or premium to the extent permitted under the Subordination Agreement.

 

The obligations of the Company and our Subsidiaries under the Eshelman Loan Agreement are secured by a second priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s and our Subsidiaries’ existing and after-acquired assets, excluding intellectual property (but including the proceeds thereof). The obligations of the Company and our Subsidiaries under the Eshelman Loan Agreement are also secured by a second priority lien on the equity interests of the Company in our Subsidiaries. The Eshelman Loan is subordinate to the MidCap Loan.

 

Other Terms

 

Under each of the Loan Agreement and the Eshelman Loan Agreement, the Company and our Subsidiaries are subject to similar affirmative covenants customary for financings of this type, including the obligations to maintain good standing, provide certain notices and financial statements to the Lenders and Eshelman, maintain insurance, discharge all taxes, and protect their intellectual property and the collateral. The Company and our Subsidiaries are also subject to negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including that they may not enter into a merger or consolidation or certain change of control events, incur liens on the collateral, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of any property, change their jurisdictions of organization or their organizational structures or types, declare or pay dividends (other than dividends payable solely in common stock), make certain investments or acquisitions, or enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions, including exceptions that allow the Company and our Subsidiaries to license intellectual property to third parties in order to receive cash, future milestone and royalty payments provided certain conditions are met. The Company and our Subsidiaries also agreed not to amend, modify or waive any provision of any of our substantive agreements regarding alogliptin or our organizational documents without the consent of the Lenders and Eshelman, respectively, unless the amendments, modifications or waivers are not adverse to us or the Lenders or Eshelman, respectively.

 

The Loan Agreement and Eshelman Loan Agreement each provides that events of default include failure to make payment of principal or interest on the loan or any other extension of credit by Agent or the Lenders or Eshelman, respectively, for Borrower’s benefit when required, failure to perform certain obligations under the loan agreement and related documents, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness including the Eshelman Loan (in the case of the Loan Agreement) or the Loan (in the case of the Eshelman Loan Agreement) and certain other events including specified adverse actions taken by the FDA or other governmental authorities. Upon the occurrence of any event of default, the Company’s and our Subsidiaries’ obligations under each of the Loan Agreement and Eshelman Loan Agreement are subject to interest at a rate equal to 4% and 3%, respectively, above the rate of interest applicable to such obligations to the occurrence of the event of default.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of September 30, 2013 (the “Second Restatement Date”) by and among MIDCAP FUNDING III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, with an office located at 7255 Woodmont Avenue, Suite 200, Bethesda, Maryland 20814 (“MidCap”), as administrative agent (“Agent”), the Lenders listed on Schedule 1 hereto and otherwise party hereto from time to time (each a “Lender”, and collectively the “Lenders”), and Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, APBI HOLDINGS, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company, DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and GENUPRO, INC., a North Carolina corporation (either individually or collectively as the context may require, the “Borrower”), provides the terms on which Lenders agree to lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lenders.

 

RECITALS

 

MidCap, the Borrower and the Lenders party thereto (the “2011 Lenders”) were party to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2011 (the “2011 Closing Date”) by and among MidCap, as Agent (the “2011 Agent”), Borrower and the 2011 Lenders (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Restatement Date (as defined below), the “2011 Loan Agreement”), which 2011 Loan Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2012 (the “Restatement Date”) by and among MidCap, as Agent (the “Restatement Agent”), Borrower and the Lenders party thereto (the “Restatement Lenders”)(as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Restatement Loan Agreement”), and the Restatement Agent, the Borrower and the Restatement Lenders wish to amend and restate the Restatement Loan Agreement in its entirety with this Agreement, it being their intention that this Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and the execution and the delivery of the promissory notes and other documents or agreements executed in connection herewith shall not be a novation of the “Term Loan’ or “Term Loans’ (as such terms are defined in the 2011 Loan Agreement and the Restatement Loan Agreement, as applicable, and as used herein, collectively, the “Restatement Term Loan”) and “Obligations’ (as defined in the 2011 Loan Agreement and the Restatement Loan Agreement, as applicable, and as used herein, including, without limitation, the Restatement Term Loan, collectively, the “Restatement Obligations”) of the Borrower or any Loan Party pursuant to the Restatement Loan Agreement and the “Loan Documents’ (as such terms are defined in the 2011 Loan Agreement and the Restatement Loan Agreement, as applicable and as used herein, the “Restatement Loan Documents”), but shall merely restate and, where applicable, amend or modify the terms of such Restatement Obligations, so that the Obligations (as hereinafter defined) represent, among other things, the amendment, restatement, renewal, extension and modification of the Restatement Obligations and the Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined) shall restructure, restate, renew, extend, amend and modify the Restatement Loan Agreement and the other Restatement Loan Documents executed in connection therewith.

 

 

 
 

 

 

In consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.     ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

 

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made in accordance with GAAP. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 14. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.

 

2.     LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

2.1     Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by the Lenders, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any other amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.2     Term Loan.

 

(a)     Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make a term loan to Borrower in an aggregate amount up to FORTY-TWO MILLION AND NO/100 Dollars ($42,000,000.00) according to each Lender’s Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (the “Term Loan”). After repayment, the Term Loan may not be re-borrowed. As of the Second Restatement Date, $37,837,837.76 of the Restatement Term Loan outstanding under the Restatement Loan Agreement shall constitute part of the Term Loan funded pursuant to and under this Agreement and shall constitute a portion of the Obligations. On the Second Restatement Date, the Restatement Term Loan shall be deemed assigned by the Restatement Lenders to the Lenders hereunder as of the Second Restatement Date in accordance with each Lender's Pro Rata Share and in accordance with (i) Term Loan Commitment allocations as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto and (ii) Section 12.15.

 

(b)     Interest Payments and Repayment. Commencing on the first (1st) Interest Payment Date following the Second Restatement Date and continuing on the Interest Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, in arrears, and calculated as set forth in Section 2.3. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on each successive Amortization Payment Date thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make consecutive scheduled payments of principal to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, as calculated by Agent based upon: (i) the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan and (ii) the amortization schedule set forth as Schedule 2.2(b) hereto. All unpaid principal and accrued interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Term Loan may be prepaid only in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d).

 

(c)     Mandatory Prepayments. If the Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan and all other Obligations, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus (ii) the Final Payment, plus (iii) the Prepayment Fee, plus (iv) all other sums that shall have become due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses.

 

 

 
2

 

 

(d)      Permitted Prepayment of Loans. Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Term Loan advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement; provided, however, that Borrower (i) provides written notice to Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loan at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, on the date of such prepayment, an amount equal to the sum of: (A) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan and all other Obligations, and all accrued interest thereon, plus (B) the Final Payment, plus (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other sums that shall have become due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses.

 

2.3     Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.

 

(a)     Computation of Interest. Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues. In computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.

 

(b)     Interest Rate Determination. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(c) below, the Term Loan shall bear interest at a fixed rate on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the Funding Date for the Term Loan until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10%).

 

(c)     Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the election of the Agent or Required Lenders, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is four percent (4.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). Any such election to apply the Default Rate by Agent or Required Lenders may, in Agent’s or Required Lenders’ sole discretion, become effective retroactively as of the date of such Event of Default having occurred. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agent or Lenders.

 

(d)     Debit of Accounts. Any Lender may debit (or ACH) any of Borrower’s Deposit Accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments when due or any other amounts Borrower owes the Lenders under the Loan Documents when due. These debits (or ACH activity) shall not constitute a set-off.

 

(e)     Payments. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 Noon Eastern Time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid. All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. All payments required under this Agreement are to be made directly to Agent unless otherwise directed by Agent in writing.

 

 

 
3

 

 

(f)     Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest charged hereunder, with respect to the Term Loan and corresponding promissory notes (if any) or any other obligations of Borrower under any of the Loan Documents exceed the maximum amount permitted under the Laws of the State of Maryland. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable hereunder or under any promissory note or other Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable Law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by Law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable. Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received, had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, then such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Lender’s Term Loan or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrower. In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

 

2.4     Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall pay the following fees and expenses:

 

(a)     Fees under Fee Letter. The fees payable by Borrower pursuant to the Fee Letter to the persons identified therein;

 

(b)     Final Payment. The Final Payment, when due under Section 2.2(c) or 2.2(d), or otherwise on the Maturity Date, to each Lender, in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share;

 

(c)     Prepayment Fee. The Prepayment Fee, if and when due under Section 2.2(c) or 2.2(d), to each Lender, in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share immediately prior to application of the corresponding prepayment; and

 

 

 
4

 

 

(d)     Lenders’ Expenses. All of Lenders’ Expenses incurred through and after the Second Restatement Date, when due (and in the absence of any other due date specified herein, such Lenders’ Expenses shall be due upon demand).

 

2.5     Additional Costs. If any new Law or regulation increases a Lender’s costs or reduces its income for the Term Loan, Borrower shall pay the increase in cost or reduction in income or additional expense; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for any amount attributable to any period before one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date such Lender notifies Borrower of such increased costs. Each Lender agrees that it shall allocate any increased costs among its customers similarly affected in good faith and in a manner consistent with such Lender’s customary practice.

 

2.6     Payments and Taxes. Any and all payments made by Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) other than any taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender’s overall net income and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by a jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) as a result of any Lender being organized or resident, conducting business (other than a business deemed to arise from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or having its principal office in such jurisdiction (“Indemnified Taxes”). If any Indemnified Taxes shall be required by Law to be withheld or deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Lender, (a) an additional amount shall be payable as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings or deductions (including withholdings or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholdings or deductions been made, (b) Borrower shall make such withholdings or deductions, (c) Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law, and (d) Borrower shall deliver to such Lender evidence of such payment. Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

2.7     Secured Promissory Notes. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by one or more Secured Promissory Note(s) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (or an amended and restated version thereto in form and substance satisfactory to Agent) (each a “Secured Promissory Note”), and shall be repayable as set forth herein. Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, on or about the Funding Date of the Term Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record reflecting the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Term Loan set forth on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Secured Promissory Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Secured Promissory Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured Promissory Note, Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.

5.2     Collateral.

 

(a)     Collateral Accounts. Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and has the power to grant a security interest in and transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens, except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commodity Accounts or other investment accounts other than the Collateral Accounts with the banks and/or financial institutions listed on Schedule 5.2(a), for which Borrower has given Agent notice and taken such actions as are necessary to grant to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, a perfected security interest therein.

 

(b)     Accounts. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.

 

(c)     Inventory. All Sale Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. All Development Inventory manufactured for use in and/or used in clinical trials has been synthesized in accordance with current “Good Manufacturing Practices’ making it suitable for use in humans.

 

(d)     Intellectual Property and License Agreements. A list of all of Borrower’s copyrights, copyright applications, trademarks, trademark applications, patents and patent applications (“Subject Intellectual Property”) and all license agreements (including all in-bound license agreements, but excluding over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public) is set forth on Schedule 5.2(d), which indicates, for each item of property: (i) the name of Borrower owning such Subject Intellectual Property or licensee to such license agreement; (ii) Borrower’s identifier for such property (i.e., name of patent, license, etc.), (iii) whether such property is Subject Intellectual Property (or application therefor) owned by Borrower or is property to which Borrower has rights pursuant to a license agreement, and (iv) the expiration date of such Subject Intellectual Property or license agreement.

Except as noted on Schedule 5.2(d), Borrower is the sole owner of its Subject Intellectual Property, except for non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the Ordinary Course of Business. Except as noted on Schedule 5.2(d), each Patent is properly filed and maintained, no part of the Subject Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge (x) no claim has been made that any part of the Subject Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party, except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change and (y) each Patent is valid and enforceable.

(e)     Location of Collateral. On the Second Restatement Date, the Collateral, exclusive of Development Inventory, is located at the address(es) identified on Schedule 5.2(e), and is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as disclosed Schedule 5.2(e), and as of the Second Restatement Date, no such third party bailee possesses components of the Collateral, exclusive of Development Inventory, in excess of [*] Dollars ($[*]) or which constitutes Borrowers’ Books. None of the components of the Collateral, other than Development Inventory, shall be maintained at locations other than as disclosed Schedule 5.2(e) on the Second Restatement Date or as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2. In the event that Borrower, after the Second Restatement Date, intends to store or otherwise deliver any portion of the Collateral, other than Development Inventory, to a bailee in excess of [*] Dollars ($[*]) or which constitutes Borrowers’ Books, then Borrower will first receive the written consent of Agent and such bailee must execute and deliver a bailee agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that (x) PPD is in default under its lease for the premises located at 3900 Paramount Parkway, Suite 150, Morrisville, North Carolina 27560 or (y) such lease is terminated and Borrower enters into a new or separate lease with the owner of such premises or if the owner confirms Borrower’s sublease shall remain in effect, then in either case of (x) or (y), upon the request of Agent, Borrower shall obtain an Access Agreement executed by such owner and by Borrower in favor of Agent.

5.4     No Material Deterioration in Financial Condition; Financial Statements. All consolidated financial statements for Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to Agent fairly present, in conformity with GAAP, in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations; provided, however, that (i) the interim financial statements of Borrower lack footnotes and are subject to year-end audit adjustments, all in accordance with GAAP and (ii) any forward-looking forecasts included in such financial statements are not in conformity with GAAP and may differ from the actual results for any period for which such forecasts have been provided, but in any event represent the Borrower’s good faith estimate of future financial performance and are based on assumptions believed by the Borrower to be fair and reasonable in light of current market conditions. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements and projections submitted to Agent.

 

5.5     Solvency. The fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities. After giving effect to the transactions described in this Agreement and the Subordinated Debt Documents, (a) Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital in relation to its business as presently conducted, and (b) Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has not violated any Laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than in material compliance with applicable Laws. Borrower has obtained all Required Permits, or has contracted with third parties holding Required Permits, necessary for compliance with all Laws and all such Required Permits are current.

Borrower has paid all amounts required to fund all of its present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

(b)     Without limiting the rights of Agent and Lenders set forth in Section 9.1(a) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Agent shall have the right, at the written direction of the Required Lenders, without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:

24

 

 

(c)      Without limiting the rights of Agent and Lenders set forth in Sections 9.1(a) and (b) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Agent shall have the right, without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:

 

(i)      settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Agent considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Agent’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such Account;

 

(ii)      make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Agent requests and make it available as Agent designates. Agent may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Agent a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Agent’s rights or remedies;

 

(iii)      ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, and/or advertise for sale, the Collateral. Agent is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders;

Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.1 to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all remedies referenced in this Section 9.1 without the written consent of Required Lenders following the occurrence of an Exigent Circumstance. As used in the immediately preceding sentence, “Exigent Circumstance” means any event or circumstance that, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, imminently threatens the ability of Agent to realize upon all or any material portion of the Collateral, such as, without limitation, fraudulent removal, concealment, or abscondment thereof, destruction or material waste thereof, or failure of Borrower after reasonable demand to maintain or reinstate adequate casualty insurance coverage, or which, in the judgment of Agent, could result in a material diminution in value of the Collateral.

 

 

 
25

 

 

9.2     Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Agent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Agent or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Agent and the Lenders are under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Agent’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

 

9.3     Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Agent are Lenders’ Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral. Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Agent obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No such payments by Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Agent’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.4     Application of Payments and Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of Borrower of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower on the one hand and Agent and Lenders on the other, Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Agent, and (b) the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to the Lenders Expenses; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding; and fourth, to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower owing to Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrower or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category. Any reference in this Agreement to an allocation between or sharing by the Lenders of any right, interest or obligation “ratably,” “proportionally” or in similar terms shall refer to Pro Rata Share unless expressly provided otherwise. Agent, or if applicable, each Lender, shall promptly remit to the other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable repayment of each Lender’s portion of any Term Loan and the ratable distribution of interest, fees and reimbursements paid or made by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender receiving a scheduled payment shall not be responsible for determining whether the other Lenders also received their scheduled payment on such date; provided, however, if it is later determined that a Lender received more than its ratable share of scheduled payments made on any date or dates, then such Lender shall remit to the Agent or other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as instructed by Agent. Any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities, shall be received by a Lender in excess of its ratable share, then the portion of such payment or distribution in excess of such Lender’s ratable share shall be received by such Lender in trust for and shall be promptly paid over to the other Lender for application to the payments of amounts due on the other Lender’s claims. To the extent any payment for the account of Borrower is required to be returned as a voidable transfer or otherwise, the Lenders shall contribute to one another as is necessary to ensure that such return of payment is on a pro rata basis. If any Lender shall obtain possession of any Collateral, it shall hold such Collateral for itself and as agent and bailee for the Agent and other Lenders for purposes of perfecting Agent’s security interest therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any warrants issued to the Lenders by Borrower, the stock issuable thereunder, any equity securities purchased by Lenders, any amounts paid thereunder, any dividends, and any other rights in connection therewith shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall affect any Lender’s rights under any such warrants, stock, or other equity securities to administer, manage, transfer, assign, or exercise such warrants, stock, or other equity securities for its own account.

 

 

 
26

 

 

9.5     Liability for Collateral. So long as Agent and the Lenders comply with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Agent and the Lenders, Agent and the Lenders shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

9.6     No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Agent’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Agent thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Agent and/or Lenders, as applicable in accordance with Section 12.12. Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Agent has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by Law, or in equity. Agent’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Agent’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Agent’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

 

9.7     Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Agent on which Borrower is liable.

 

9.8     Borrower Liability. Each Borrower hereby appoints the others as agent for the others for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting the Term Loan hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay the Term Loan made hereunder and all other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Term Loan, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received the Term Loan.  Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, and (b) any right to require the Lenders or Agent to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy.  The Lenders or Agent may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy they have against any Borrower or any security (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, 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 the Lenders and Agent under this 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 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 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 the Lenders and Agent and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

11.     CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

 

THIS AGREEMENT, EACH SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO OR ARISING THEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AGENT AND LENDERS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHICH AGENT AND LENDERS (IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9.1) DEEM NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR TO OTHERWISE ENFORCE AGENT’S AND LENDERS’ RIGHTS AGAINST BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY. BORROWER EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE, OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS, AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS, AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 10 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER TO OCCUR OF BORROWER’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

 

Borrower, Agent and each Lender agree that the Term Loan (including those portions of the Term Loan made on each of the 2011 Closing Date and the Restatement Date), shall be deemed to be made in, and the transactions contemplated hereunder and in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to have been performed in, the State of Maryland.

 

12.     GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

12.1     Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Agent’s and each Lender’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Agent’s discretion). Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Lender’s Loan, together with all related obligations of such Lender hereunder. Borrower and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in form and substance acceptable to Agent, executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto (each, an “Assignment Agreement”), and shall have received such other information regarding such Eligible Assignee as Agent reasonably shall require. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

12.2     Indemnification.

 

(a)     Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Agent and the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Agent or the Lenders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (ii) all losses or Lenders’ Expenses incurred, or paid by Indemnified Person from, following, or arising from transactions between Agent, and/or the Lenders and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”).

 

(b)     Borrower hereby further indemnifies, defends and holds each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitee) in connection with any investigative, response, remedial, administrative or judicial matter or proceeding, whether or not such Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto and including any such proceeding initiated by or on behalf of Borrower, and the reasonable expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical personnel and any commission, fee or compensation claimed by any broker (other than any broker retained by Agent or Lenders) asserting any right to payment for the transactions contemplated hereby which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the use or intended use of the proceeds of the loan proceeds.

 

(c)     To the extent that the undertaking set forth in this Section 12.2 may be unenforceable, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all such indemnified liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.

 

12.3     Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.

 

12.4     Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.

 

12.5     Correction of Loan Documents. Agent and the Lenders may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties.

 

12.6     Integration. This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

 

 

 
30

 

 

12.7     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

 

12.8     Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify each Lender and Agent shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.

 

12.9     Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information of Borrower, the Lenders and Agent shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to the Lenders’ and Agent’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, the Lenders and Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by Law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to regulators or as otherwise required in connection with an examination or audit; (e) as Agent considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third party service providers of the Lenders and/or Agent so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with the Lenders and Agent with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in the Lenders’ and/or Agent’s possession when disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to the Lenders and/or Agent; or (ii) is disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent by a third party, if the Lenders and/or Agent does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information. Agent and/or Lenders may use confidential information for any purpose, including, without limitation, for the development of client databases, reporting purposes, and market analysis, so long as Agent and/or Lenders, as applicable, do not disclose Borrower’s identity or the identity of any Person associated with Borrower unless otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement. The agreements provided under this Section 12.9 supersede all prior agreements, understanding, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Section 12.9.

 

12.10     Right of Set Off. Borrower hereby grants to Agent and to each Lender, a lien, security interest and right of set off as security for all Obligations to Agent and each Lender hereunder, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Agent or the Lenders or any entity under the control of Agent or the Lenders (including an Agent affiliate) or in transit to any of them. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Agent or the Lenders may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE AGENT TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

In addition, each Lender and Borrower agrees that each Lender may provide lending industry trade organizations with information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements after the Second Restatement Date. With respect to any of the foregoing authorizations granted to Lenders, such authorization shall be subject to such Lender providing Borrower and the other Lenders with an opportunity to review and confer with such Lender regarding, and approve, the contents of any such tombstone, advertisement or information, as applicable, prior to its initial submission for publication, but subsequent publications of the same tombstone, advertisement or information shall not require Borrower’s approval.

(c)     The Borrower, Loan Parties, Agent and Lenders acknowledge and agree that all principal, interest, fees, costs, reimbursable expenses and indemnification obligations accruing or arising under or in connection with the Restatement Loan Agreement which remain unpaid and outstanding as of the Second Restatement Date shall be and remain outstanding and payable as an obligation under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

13.     AGENT

 

13.1     Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Subordination Agreement, consents to and authorizes Agent’s execution and delivery thereof on behalf of such Lender and Agent’s authority to perform its duties and obligations thereunder, and further agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof.

 

13.2     Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through its, or its Affiliates’, agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to obtain and rely upon the advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

13.3     Liability of Agent. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower or any Affiliate thereof.

 

 

 
35

 

 

13.4     Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of all Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of all Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

 

13.5     Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default and/or Event of Default, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower, describing such default or Event of Default. Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to an Event of Default as may be directed in writing by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9(a); provided, however, that while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as Agent shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders, including without limitation, satisfaction of other security interests, liens or encumbrances on the Collateral not permitted under the Loan Documents, payment of taxes on behalf of Borrower, payments to landlords, warehouseman, bailees and other Persons in possession of the Collateral and other actions to protect and safeguard the Collateral, and actions with respect to insurance claims for casualty events affecting Borrower and/or the Collateral.

 

13.6     Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent herein, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any of its Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

 

 

 
36

2.1.          Subordination of Subordinated Loans to Senior Loans. Each Loan Party covenants and agrees, and each Subordinated Lender likewise covenants and agrees, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Subordinated Loan Documents, that the payment of any and all of the Subordinated Loans shall be subordinate and subject in right and time of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the Payment in Full of all Senior Loans. Each holder of the Senior Loans, whether now outstanding or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, shall be deemed to have acquired the Senior Loans in reliance upon the provisions contained in this Agreement. Except as otherwise permitted under subsection 2.2 below, until the Senior Loan has been Paid in Full, no Borrower, nor any Loan Party, shall make, and Subordinated Lender shall not accept, any Distribution on account of the Subordinated Loan or any Subordinated Loan Documents, whether in cash, securities or other property.

 

 

 
 

 

 

2.2.          Subordinated Debt Payment Restrictions. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.1 hereinabove, Permitted Subordinated Loan Payments may be made by the Borrower or accepted by Subordinated Lender, but only if, (a) at the time of such Permitted Subordinated Loan Payment, no Default or Event of Default exists under and as defined in the Senior Loan Documents and no default thereunder will be created by reason of such payment and (b) solely with respect to Permitted Subordinated Loan Principal Payments, after giving effect to such Permitted Subordinated Loan Principal Payment, the Borrower will have not less than seven million, five hundred thousand and no/100 dollars ($7,500,000.00) in cash; provided, that, if any such Permitted Subordinated Loan Payment has not been made by Borrower or received by Subordinated Lender as a result of the failure to meet the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above, as applicable, such Permitted Subordinated Loan Payment shall be made by Borrower on the next scheduled monthly payment date pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement, but only if the conditions for payment in clauses (a) and (b) above, as applicable, are satisfied.

 

2.3.          Subordinated Loan Standstill. Until the Senior Loans are Paid in Full, Subordinated Lender shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent, take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Subordinated Loans.

 

2.4.          Incorrect Payments. If any Distribution on account of the Subordinated Loan not permitted to be made by any Loan Party or accepted by Subordinated Lender under this Agreement is made and received by Subordinated Lender, such Distribution shall not be commingled with any of the assets of Subordinated Lender, shall be held in trust by Subordinated Lender for the benefit of Senior Lenders and shall be promptly paid over to Agent for the benefit of Senior Lenders for application in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents to the payment of the Senior Loans then remaining unpaid, until all of the Senior Loans are Paid in Full.

 

2.5.          Subordination of Liens and Security Interests; Agreement Not to Contest; Agreement to Release any Liens. Subordinated Lender hereby acknowledges, agrees, represents and warrants that, except for the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens, none of the Subordinated Loans nor any portion thereof is as of the date hereof, or at any time in the future shall be, secured by any other lien or security interest in any of the Collateral, the equity interests in any Loan Party or any other asset of a Loan Party, or guaranteed by any Loan Party. Without limiting the foregoing, until the Senior Loans have been Paid in Full, all liens and security interests of Subordinated Lender in the Collateral shall be and hereby are subordinated for all purposes and in all respects to the liens and security interests of Senior Lenders in the Collateral and securing the Senior Loans (including the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens), regardless of the time, manner or order of perfection of any such liens and security interests and regardless of any failure, whether intervening or continuing, of Senior Lenders’ liens and security interests to be perfected; provided, however, that each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, except for the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens, the existence of any lien or security interest of Subordinated Lender would constitute an automatic and immediate Event of Default under the Senior Loan Agreement and a breach of this Agreement. Each Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not at any time contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Senior Loans, the Senior Loan Documents, or the liens and security interests of Senior Lenders in the Collateral securing the Senior Loans. Agent covenants and agrees with Subordinated Lender that it will not at any time contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens in the Collateral or the Subordinated Loan Documents, subject to the rights and priorities of the Senior Lenders under this Agreement. In the event that any lien or security interest other than the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens arises in favor of any Subordinated Lender, immediately upon Agent’s request, each such Subordinated Lender shall (or shall cause its agent to) promptly execute and deliver to Agent such termination statements and releases as Agent shall request to effect the release of the liens and security interests of each Subordinated Lender in any such Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Subordinated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of each such Subordinated Lender and in the name of each such Subordinated Lender or otherwise, to execute and deliver any document or instrument which each such Subordinated Lender may be required to deliver pursuant to this subsection 2.5.

 

 

 
 

 

 

2.6.          Application of Proceeds from Sale or other Disposition of the Collateral; Agreement to Release Liens.

 

(a)     In the event of any sale, transfer or other disposition (including a casualty loss or taking through eminent domain) of the Collateral, the proceeds resulting therefrom (including insurance proceeds) shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents or as otherwise consented to by Agent until such time as the Senior Loans are Paid in Full, with any excess thereafter being paid over in accordance with Section 2.6(c).

 

(b)     Without affecting the rights of Agent or Senior Lenders under this Agreement, and without limiting the limitation on liens and security interests in favor of the Subordinated Lender as more specifically set forth in subsection 2.5, Subordinated Lender agrees and consents that any Collateral securing the Subordinated Loans, in whole or in part, may be compromised, exchanged, sold or surrendered by Agent for other Collateral as it may deem advisable, and that any balance or balances of funds with Agent at any time outstanding to the credit of Borrower may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be surrendered or released by Agent as it may deem advisable, subject, however, to the terms of the Senior Loan Documents and Subordinated Lender’s Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens. In the event that Agent has determined to enforce its rights against any Collateral, then promptly upon Agent’s request, Subordinated Lender shall promptly execute and deliver to Agent such termination statements and releases as Agent shall reasonably request to effect the release of any liens and/or security interests of Subordinated Lender (including the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens) in any such Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing, Subordinated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Subordinated Lender and in the name of Subordinated Lender or otherwise, to execute and deliver any document or instrument which Subordinated Lender may be required to deliver pursuant to this subsection 2.6.

 

(c)     All Collateral and all proceeds thereof received by Agent after Payment in Full of the Senior Loans shall be forthwith paid over, in the kind or funds and currency received, to whomever may be lawfully entitled thereto; provided, that, Agent shall not be required to make any special inquiry as to who may be entitled to such Collateral or proceeds.

 

2.7.         Sale, Transfer or other Disposition of Subordinated Loan. Subordinated Lender shall not sell, assign, pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Subordinated Loan or any Subordinated Loan Document without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion.

 

 

 
 

 

 

2.8.         Legends. Until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8 hereof, Subordinated Lender will cause to be clearly, conspicuously and prominently inserted on the face of each Subordinated Loan Document, the following legend:

 

This instrument or other agreement and the indebtedness, rights and obligations evidenced hereby and any liens or other security interests securing such rights and obligations are subordinate in the manner and to the extent set forth in that certain Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement”), dated as of September 30, 2013, by and among the Subordinated Lender identified therein and MidCap Funding III, LLC, in its capacity as agent (together with its successors and assigns, “Agent”) for the Senior Lenders (as defined in the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement), to certain indebtedness, rights and obligations of FURIEX PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., APBI HOLDINGS, LLC, DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, LLC and GENUPRO, INC., to Agent and the Senior Lenders, and all liens and security interests of Agent securing the same, all as described in the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement, and each holder and transferee of this instrument or agreement, by its acceptance hereof, irrevocably agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement.

 

2.9.          Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. In the event of any Proceeding involving Borrower:

 

(a)      Any Distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property which would otherwise, but for the terms hereof, be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Loan shall be paid or delivered directly to Agent (to be held and/or applied by Senior Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents) until all of the Senior Loans are Paid in Full. Each Subordinated Lender irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor in possession, receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, conservator or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise deliver all such Distributions to Agent. Each Subordinated Lender also irrevocably authorizes and empowers Agent, in the name of Subordinated Lender, to demand, sue for, collect and receive any and all such Distributions.

 

(b)      Each Subordinated Lender agrees that Agent may consent to the use of cash collateral or provide financing to any Loan Party on such terms and conditions and in such amounts as Agent, in its sole discretion, may decide and, in connection therewith, any Loan Party may grant to Agent for the benefit of Senior Lenders liens and security interests upon all of the property of any Loan Party, which liens and security interests (i) shall secure payment of the Senior Loans (whether such Senior Loans arose prior to the commencement of any Proceeding or at any time thereafter) and all other financing provided by Senior Lenders during the Proceeding, and (ii) shall be superior in priority to the liens and security interests, if any, in favor of each such Subordinated Lender on the property of any Loan Party. Each Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not object to or oppose a sale or other disposition of any property securing all or any part of the Senior Loans free and clear of security interests, liens or other claims of Subordinated Lenders under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code if Agent has consented to such sale or disposition. Each Subordinated Lender agrees not to assert any right it may have to “adequate protection” of Subordinated Lender’s interest in any Collateral in any Proceeding and agrees that it will not seek to have the automatic stay lifted with respect to any Collateral without the prior written consent of Agent. Each Subordinated Lender waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of Agent’s election, in any Proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code by Borrower, as debtor in possession.

 

 

 
 

 

 

(c)      Each Subordinated Lender agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Loans requested by Agent in connection with any such Proceeding and hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Agent its agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim upon the failure of any Subordinated Lender promptly to do so prior to thirty (30) days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof of claim, and (ii) vote such claim in any such Proceeding upon the failure of any Subordinated Lender to do so prior to fifteen (15) days before the expiration of the time to vote any such claim; provided, however, that Agent shall have no obligation to execute, verify, deliver, file and/or vote any such proof of claim. In the event that Agent votes any claim in accordance with the authority granted hereby, the relevant Subordinated Lender shall not be entitled to change or withdraw such vote. Each Subordinated Lender hereby assigns to Agent or its nominee (and will, upon request of Agent, reconfirm in writing the assignment to Agent or its nominee of) all rights of such Subordinated Lender under such claims.

 

(d)      The Senior Loans shall continue to be treated as the Senior Loans and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Lenders and Subordinated Lenders even if all or part of the Senior Loans or the security interests securing the Senior Loans are subordinated, set aside, avoided, invalidated or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding, and this Agreement shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Loans is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of the Senior Loans or any representative of such holder.

 

3.            Modifications; Notices of Default; Representations.

 

3.1.         Modifications to Senior Loan Documents. Senior Lenders may at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to Subordinated Lenders, without incurring liability to any Subordinated Lender and without impairing or releasing the obligations of each Subordinated Lender under this Agreement, change the manner or place of payment or extend the time of payment of or renew or alter any of the terms of the Senior Loans, or amend in any manner any agreement, note, guaranty or other instrument evidencing or securing or otherwise relating to the Senior Loans; provided, however, that, without first obtaining the consent of the Subordinated Lender, neither Agent nor Senior Lenders shall amend, modify or supplement the Senior Loan Documents to do any of the following: (a) increase the principal amount of the Senior Loans in excess of the Maximum Principal Balance (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this clause (a) shall not affect in any way Agent’s or Senior Lenders’ right to make and be reimbursed for protective or similar payments or advances under the Senior Loan Documents, regardless of whether such payments or advances are, or are deemed, extensions of credit to the Borrower or any Loan Party and such amounts shall not count against the Maximum Principal Balance) , (b) increase the interest rate on any of the Senior Loans (provided, that, this clause (b) shall not in any way affect Agent’s or Senior Lenders’ right to impose the default rate of interest or any late payment penalty against the Borrowers) or (c) extend the maturity date of the Senior Loans beyond October 1, 2018.

 

 

 
 

 

 

3.2.         Modifications to Subordinated Loan Documents; Maximum Principal Amount of Subordinated Loan.

Without limiting the foregoing, the original principal indebtedness of the Subordinated Loan shall not exceed, in the aggregate, fifteen million and no/100 dollars ($15,000,00.00). Nothing herein, including the provisions of this Agreement pertaining to subordination of liens on the Collateral, shall be construed to imply Agent’s or Senior Lenders’ consent to any Subordinated Loan Document which grants a lien upon any of the Collateral or any other property of the Borrower or on the ownership interests of each Borrower (other than the Subordinated Loan Agreement Liens) or the making of any other loans or other advances by the Subordinated Lender (other than the Subordinated Loans made or contemplated to be made pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement as of the date of this Agreement).

 

3.3          Notices of Default under Senior Loan Documents and Subordinated Loan Documents. Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to copy Subordinated Lender on any notice of Event of Default that it provides to Borrower under the Senior Loan Documents; provided, that Agent shall have no liability for the failure to provide such copy. Each Subordinated Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to copy Agent on any notice of Event of Default that it provides to Borrower under the Subordinated Loan Documents; provided, that such Subordinated Lender shall have no liability for the failure to provide such copy. Borrower agrees to send to Senior Lenders and to Subordinated Lender, as applicable, copies of all notices of default which Borrower receives from the Senior Lenders or the Subordinated Lender, respectively. The provisions of this subsection 3.3 do not authorize Subordinated Lender to take any Enforcement Action.

(c) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

 

3.5          Agent’s Authority. Agent represents and warrants to Subordinated Lender that (a) it has been authorized by the Senior Lenders to enter into this Agreement and (b) Subordinated Lender shall have the right to rely fully upon the power and authority granted by the Senior Lenders to Agent pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents to enter into this Agreement and is authorized to deal exclusively with Agent until it has received written notice to the contrary from Agent or any Senior Lender of any revocation of or limitation on such power and authority of Agent.

5.            Construction.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of September 30, 2013 (the “Effective Date”) by and among the FREDRIC NEVILLE ESHELMAN REVOCABLE TRUST u/a dated July 13, 1988, as amended and/or restated (the “Lender”), and Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, APBI HOLDINGS, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company, DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and GENUPRO, INC., a North Carolina corporation (either individually or collectively as the context may require, the “Borrower”), provides the terms on which the Lender agrees to lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay the Lender.

 

RECITALS

 

A.           Borrower, Agent (as hereinafter defined) and the lenders party thereto (the “2011 Lender”) were party to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2011 (the “2011 Closing Date”) by and among Agent, Borrower and the 2011 Lender (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Restatement Date (as defined below), the “2011 Loan Agreement”), which 2011 Loan Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2012 by and among Agent, Borrower and the lenders party thereto (the “Restatement Lender”)(as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Restatement Loan Agreement”). The Agent, the Borrower and the Restatement Lender have amended and restated the Restatement Loan Agreement in its entirety by that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of the date of this Agreement by and among Agent, Borrower and the Senior Lenders (as hereinafter defined) (as amended, restated and supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Second Restatement Loan Agreement”).

 

 

 
 

 

 

B.             In connection with the execution of this Agreement and the Second Restatement Loan Agreement, the Agent, Lender and Borrower have agreed to enter into that certain Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Subordination Agreement”), pursuant to which the Term Loan (as hereinafter defined) and the Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be subordinate, in certain respects, to the Senior Debt (as hereinafter defined) and the rights and Liens of the Senior Lenders under the Second Restatement Loan Agreement and the other Senior Debt Documents (as hereinafter defined).

 

In consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.            ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

 

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made in accordance with GAAP. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 14. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.

 

2.             LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

2.1       Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by the Lender, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any other amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.2     Term Loan.

 

(a)           Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lender agrees to make a term loan to Borrower in an aggregate amount of FIFTEEN MILLION AND NO/100 Dollars ($15,000,000.00) (the “Term Loan”). After repayment, the Term Loan (or any portion thereof) may not be re-borrowed.

 

(b)           Interest Payments and Repayment. Commencing on November 1, 2013 and continuing on the Interest Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest to the Lender, in arrears, and calculated as set forth in Section 2.3. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on each successive Amortization Payment Date thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make consecutive scheduled monthly payments of principal to the Lender in accordance with the Secured Promissory Note. All unpaid principal and accrued interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Term Loan may be prepaid only in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d).

 

(c)           Mandatory Prepayments. If the Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lender an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan and all other Obligations, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus (ii) all other sums that shall have become due and payable, including the Lender’s Expenses.

 

 

 
2

 

 

(d)           Permitted Prepayment of Term Loan. Borrower shall have the option to prepay all or any portion of the Term Loan, without penalty or premium after providing written notice to the Lender of its election to prepay the Term Loan at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment and, if Borrower is electing to prepay the Term Loan in full, Borrower  pays to the Lender, on the date of such prepayment, an amount equal to the sum of: (A) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan and all other Obligations, and all accrued interest thereon, plus (B) all other sums that shall have become due and payable, including Lender’s Expenses.

 

2.3           Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.

 

(a)           Computation of Interest. Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues. In computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.

 

(b)           Interest Rate Determination. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(c) below, the Term Loan shall bear interest at a fixed rate on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the Funding Date for the Term Loan until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to nine percent (9%).

 

(c)           Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is three percent (3.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall become effective retroactively as of the date of such Event of Default having occurred. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Lender.

 

(d)           Intentionally Omitted.

 

(e)           Payments. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 Noon Eastern Time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid. All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. All payments required under this Agreement are to be made directly to the Lender unless otherwise directed by the Lender in writing.

(f)            Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest charged hereunder, with respect to the Term Loan and corresponding promissory notes (if any) or any other obligations of Borrower under any of the Loan Documents exceed the maximum amount permitted under the Laws of the State of North Carolina. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable hereunder or under any promissory note or other Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable Law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by Law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable. Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by the Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received, had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, the Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, then such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Term Loan or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrower. In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to the Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

 

2.4           Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall pay the following fees and expenses:

 

(a)         Intentionally Omitted;

 

(b)         Intentionally Omitted;   

 

(c)         Intentionally Omitted; and

 

(d)         Lender’s Expenses. All of Lender’s Expenses incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due (and in the absence of any other due date specified herein, Lender’s Expenses shall be due upon demand).

 

2.5           Intentionally Omitted.

 

2.6           Payments and Taxes. Any and all payments made by Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) other than any taxes imposed on or measured by the Lender’s overall net income and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by a jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) as a result of the Lender being organized or resident, conducting business (other than a business deemed to arise from the Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or having its principal office in such jurisdiction (“Indemnified Taxes”). If any Indemnified Taxes shall be required by Law to be withheld or deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Lender, (a) an additional amount shall be payable as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings or deductions (including withholdings or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholdings or deductions been made, (b) Borrower shall make such withholdings or deductions, (c) Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law, and (d) Borrower shall deliver to the Lender evidence of such payment. Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

 

 
4

 

 

2.7           Secured Promissory Note. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender (a “Secured Promissory Note”), and shall be repayable as set forth herein. Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make or cause to be made, on or about the Funding Date of the Term Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on the Lender’s Secured Promissory Note, an appropriate notation on the Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record reflecting the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Term Loan set forth on the Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on the Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Secured Promissory Note to make payments of principal of or interest on the Secured Promissory Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of the Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured Promissory Note, Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.

 

3.             CONDITIONS OF LOANS

 

3.1           Conditions Precedent to the Initial Credit Extension. The Lender’s obligation to fund the Term Loan is subject to the condition precedent that the Lender shall consent to or shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, such documents, and completion of such other matters, as the Lender may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation:

(m)           in the Lender’s sole discretion, there has not been any Material Adverse Change or any material impairment in the general affairs, management, results of operation, financial condition or the prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by the Lender.

 

3.2           Covenant to Deliver. Borrower agrees to deliver to the Lender each item required to be delivered to the Lender under this Agreement as a condition precedent to any Credit Extension. Borrower expressly agrees that a Credit Extension made prior to the receipt by the Lender of any such item shall not constitute a waiver by the Lender of Borrower’s obligation to deliver such item, and any such Credit Extension in the absence of a required item shall be made in the Lender’s sole discretion.

4.             CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

Borrower hereby grants to the Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to the Lender, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.

4.2           Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender or its agent to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Lender’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral not permitted hereunder, by either Borrower or any other Person (except the Senior Lenders), shall be deemed to violate the rights of the Lender under the Code.

 

5.             REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Borrower represents and warrants as follows at all times unless expressly provided below:

 

5.1           Due Organization, Authorization: Power and Authority.

 

(a)           Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are duly existing and in good standing, as Registered Organizations in their respective jurisdictions of formation and are qualified and licensed to do business and are in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of their business or their ownership of property requires that they be qualified except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Borrower represents and warrants that (i) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on Schedule 5.1 and on the signature page hereof; (ii) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth on Schedule 5.1; (iii) Schedule 5.1 accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (iv) Schedule 5.1 accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); and (v) Borrower has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction. Further, in connection with the 2011 Loan Agreement, Borrower delivered to the Senior Lenders, and has delivered a copy to Lender at or prior to the Effective Date, a completed Perfection Certificate signed by Borrower (the “Perfection Certificate”). All information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete as of the Effective Date other than with respect to changes that are reflected in the Schedules attached to this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Effective Date, to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement).

(b)           The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of Borrower’s Operating Documents; (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law; (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected; (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect); or (v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

 

5.2           Collateral.

 

(a)           Collateral Accounts. Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and has the power to grant a security interest in and transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens, except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commodity Accounts or other investment accounts other than the Collateral Accounts with the banks and/or financial institutions listed on Schedule 5.2(a). Prior to the satisfaction of the Senior Debt at the request of the Lender, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each depository institution at which Borrower maintains a Deposit Account and each securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which Borrower maintains a Securities Account or a Commodity Account a Control Agreement that shall be effective upon the satisfaction of the Senior Debt and termination of the control agreement currently in effect for the benefit of the Senior Lenders and pursuant to which the Lender obtains control (within the meaning of the Code) for the benefit of the Lender over such Deposit Account, Securities Account or Commodity Account. Unless otherwise agreed between the Lender and Borrower, each such Control Agreement shall be in all material respects in the same form of the control agreement currently in effect with each such depository institution or securities intermediary or commodity intermediary for the benefit of the Senior Lenders.

 

(b)           Accounts. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.

 

(c)           Inventory. All Sale Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. All Development Inventory manufactured for use in and/or used in clinical trials has been synthesized in accordance with current “Good Manufacturing Practices’ making it suitable for use in humans.

 

 

 
8

 

 

(d)           Intellectual Property and License Agreements. A list of all of Borrower’s copyrights, copyright applications, trademarks, trademark applications, patents and patent applications (“Subject Intellectual Property”) and all license agreements (including all in-bound license agreements, but excluding over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public) is set forth on Schedule 5.2(d), which indicates, for each item of property: (i) the name of Borrower owning such Subject Intellectual Property or licensee to such license agreement; (ii) Borrower’s identifier for such property (i.e., name of patent, license, etc.), (iii) whether such property is Subject Intellectual Property (or application therefor) owned by Borrower or is property to which Borrower has rights pursuant to a license agreement, and (iv) the expiration date of such Subject Intellectual Property or license agreement. In the case of any license agreement, Schedule 5.2(d) further indicates, for each: (A) the name and address of the licensor, (B) the name and date of the license agreement pursuant to which Intellectual Property is licensed, (C) whether or not such license agreement grants an exclusive license to Borrower, and (D) whether there are any restrictions in such license agreement as to the ability of Borrower to grant a security interest in and/or to transfer any of its rights as a licensee under such license agreement. Except as noted on Schedule 5.2(d), Borrower is the sole owner of its Subject Intellectual Property, except for non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the Ordinary Course of Business. Except as noted on Schedule 5.2(d), each Patent is properly filed and maintained, no part of the Subject Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge (x) no claim has been made that any part of the Subject Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party, except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change and (y) each Patent is valid and enforceable.

 

(e)     Location of Collateral. On the Effective Date, the Collateral, exclusive of Development Inventory, is located at the address(es) identified on Schedule 5.2(e), and is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as disclosed on Schedule 5.2(e), and as of the Effective Date, no such third party bailee possesses components of the Collateral, exclusive of Development Inventory, in excess of [*] Dollars ($[*]) or which constitutes Borrowers’ Books.

All consolidated financial statements for Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to the Lender fairly present, in conformity with GAAP, in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations; provided, however, that (i) the interim financial statements of Borrower lack footnotes and are subject to year-end audit adjustments, all in accordance with GAAP and (ii) any forward-looking forecasts included in such financial statements are not in conformity with GAAP and may differ from the actual results for any period for which such forecasts have been provided, but in any event represent the Borrower’s good faith estimate of future financial performance and are based on assumptions believed by the Borrower to be fair and reasonable in light of current market conditions. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements and projections submitted to the Lender.

Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has not violated any Laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than in material compliance with applicable Laws. Borrower has obtained all Required Permits, or has contracted with third parties holding Required Permits, necessary for compliance with all Laws and all such Required Permits are current. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Governmental Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted.

Borrower has paid all amounts required to fund all of its present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to the Lender, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to the Lender, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).

9.1           Rights and Remedies.

 

(a)           Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (i) deliver notice of the Event of Default to Borrower, (ii) by notice to Borrower declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable without any action by the Lender), or (iii) by notice to Borrower suspend or terminate the obligations, if any, of the Lender to advance money or extend credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and the Lender (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all obligations, if any, of the Lender to advance money or extend credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and the Lender shall be immediately terminated without any action by the Lender).

 

(b)           Without limiting the rights of the Lender set forth in Section 9.1(a) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Lender shall have the right, without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:

 

(i)            foreclose upon and/or sell or otherwise liquidate, the Collateral;

 

(ii)           apply to the Obligations any (a) balances and deposits of Borrower that the Lender holds or controls, or (b) any amount held or controlled by the Lender owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; and/or

 

(iii)          commence and prosecute an Insolvency Proceeding or consent to Borrower commencing any Insolvency Proceeding.

 

(c)           Without limiting the rights of the Lender set forth in Sections 9.1(a) and (b) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Lender shall have the right, without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:

 

(i)            settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Lender considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Lender’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such Account;

 

 

 
24

 

 

(ii)           make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if the Lender requests and make it available as the Lender designates. The Lender may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants the Lender a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of the Lender’s rights or remedies;

 

(iii)          ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, and/or advertise for sale, the Collateral. The Lender is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with the Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to and for the benefit of the Lender;

 

(iv)          place a “hold” on any account maintained with the Lender and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

 

(v)          demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

 

(vi)         subject to clauses 9.1(a) and (b), exercise all rights and remedies available to the Lender under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

 

9.2           Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms the Lender determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Lender or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints the Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Lender’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and the Lender is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. The Lender’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of the Lender’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and the Lender’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

 

 

 
25

 

 

9.3           Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Lender may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by the Lender are Lender’s Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral. The Lender will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of the Lender obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No such payments by the Lender are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or the Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.4           Application of Payments and Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by the Lender from or on behalf of Borrower of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower on the one hand and the Lender on the other, the Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as the Lender may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by the Lender, and (b) the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to the Lender’s Expenses; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding; and fourth, to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower owing to the Lender under the Loan Documents. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrower or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any warrants issued to the Lender by Borrower, the stock issuable thereunder, any equity securities purchased by the Lender, any amounts paid thereunder, any dividends, and any other rights in connection therewith shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall affect the Lender’s rights under any such warrants, stock, or other equity securities to administer, manage, transfer, assign, or exercise such warrants, stock, or other equity securities for its own account.

 

9.5           Liability for Collateral. So long as the Lender complies with reasonable practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of the Lender, the Lender shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

9.6           No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the Lender in accordance with Section 12.12. The Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. The Lender has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by Law, or in equity. The Lender’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and the Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. The Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

 

 

 
26

 

 

9.7           Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by the Lender on which Borrower is liable.

 

9.8           Borrower Liability. Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, APBI HOLDINGS, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company, DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and GENUPRO, INC., a North Carolina corporation, are co-borrowers with respect to the Term Loan and all of the other Obligations (for purposes of this Section 9.8, each a “co-Borrower”). All references to “Borrower” in this Agreement shall mean, as the context requires, each and all of the co-Borrowers, their respective successors and assigns, jointly and severally. Each co-Borrower hereby appoints the others as agent for the others for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting the Term Loan hereunder. Each co-Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay the Term Loan made hereunder and all other Obligations, regardless of which co-Borrower actually receives said Term Loan, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received the Term Loan.  Each co-Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, and (b) any right to require the Lender to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy.  The Lender may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy they have against any Borrower or any security (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any co-Borrower’s liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each co-Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating co-Borrower to the rights of the Lender under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other co-Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by co-Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this 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 co-Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.  Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section 9.8 shall be null and void.  If any payment is made to a co-Borrower in contravention of this Section, such co-Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for the Lender and such payment shall be promptly delivered to the Lender for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

Furiex has received seven Petitions for Invalidation of Korean Patent No. 719977 (entitled Methods of Using Rapid-Onset Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors for Treating Sexual Dysfunction) that were filed with the IPT. The IPT has rendered an opinion invalidating the patent. Patent counsel for Furiex is addressing this decision and the possibility of a subsequent appeal at the court level. Furiex has received an invalidation opinion from the PRB in China for Chinese Patent No. ZL00815313.2 (entitled Methods of Using Rapid-Onset Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors for Treating Sexual Dysfunction) and is appealing the decision at the intermediate court level. Furiex does not believe that the foregoing patents are material to its business and they do not relate to Nesina

8.     Rights of the Lender Following Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Agreement (and in addition to all of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement), the Lender may, at its option, without notice to Pledgor or any other party, but subject to the Subordination Agreement, do any one or more of the following:

 (d)     Exercise all voting and management rights of Pledgor as to Company or otherwise pertaining to the Collateral, and Pledgor, forthwith upon the request of the Lender, shall use its best efforts to secure, and cooperate with the efforts of the Lender to secure (if not already secured by the Lender), all the benefits of such voting and management rights.

 

 (e)     Sell the Collateral in any manner permitted by the Code; and upon any such sale of the Collateral, the Lender may (i) bid for and purchase the Collateral and apply the expenses of such sale (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) as a credit against the purchase price, or (ii) apply the proceeds of any sale or sales to other persons or entities, in whatever order the Lender in its sole discretion may decide, to the expenses of such sale (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the Obligations, and the remainder, if any, shall be paid to Pledgor or to such other person or entity legally entitled to payment of such remainder; and

 

 (f)     Proceed by suit or suits in law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy to enforce the performance of any term, covenant, condition, or agreement contained in this Agreement, and institution of such a suit or suits shall not abrogate the rights of the Lender to pursue any other remedies granted in this Agreement or to pursue any other remedy available to the Lender either at law or in equity.

 

The Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code and other applicable laws. All costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or paid by the Lender in exercising or protecting any interest, right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, shall bear interest at a per annum rate of interest equal to the then highest rate of interest charged on any of the Obligations from the date of payment until repaid in full and shall, along with the interest thereon, constitute and become a part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement.

 

Pledgor hereby constitutes and appoints the Lender or any of its agents as the attorney-in-fact of Pledgor after the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents (including but not limited to this Agreement) to take such actions and execute such documents as the Lender may deem appropriate in the exercise of the rights and powers granted to the Lender in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, filling-in blanks in the Transfer Power to cause a transfer of the Ownership Interests and other Collateral pursuant to a sale of the Collateral. The power of attorney granted hereby shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall terminate only upon the payment in full of the Obligations. Pledgor shall indemnify and hold the Lender harmless for all losses, costs, damages, fees, and expenses suffered or incurred in connection with the exercise of this power of attorney except for losses, costs, damages, fees, and expenses directly caused by the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and shall release the Lender from any and all liability arising in connection with the exercise of this power of attorney.

If Pledgor shall fail to perform, observe or comply with any of the conditions, terms, or covenants contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Lender, without notice to or demand upon Pledgor and without waiving or releasing any of the Obligations or any Event of Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter perform such conditions, terms or covenants for the account and at the expense of Pledgor, and may enter upon the premises of Pledgor for that purpose and take all such action on the premises as the Lender may consider necessary or appropriate for such purpose. All sums paid or advanced by the Lender in connection with the foregoing and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the foregoing, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate of interest equal to the then highest rate of interest charged on the principal of any of the Obligations, from the date of payment until repaid in full, shall be paid by Pledgor to the Lender on demand and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement.

 

10.     Indemnification. The Lender shall not in any way be responsible for the performance or discharge of, and the Lender does not hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty, responsibility, or liability of Pledgor in connection with the Collateral or otherwise. Pledgor hereby agrees to indemnify the Lender and hold the Lender harmless from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, or demands suffered or incurred by reason of this Agreement or by reason of any alleged responsibilities or undertakings on the part of the Lender to perform or discharge any obligations, duties, responsibilities, or liabilities of Pledgor in connection with the Collateral or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity and agreement to hold harmless shall not apply to losses, liabilities, damages, claims, or demands suffered or incurred by reason of the Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Lender shall have no duty to collect any amounts due or to become due in connection with the Collateral or enforce or preserve Pledgor’s rights under this Agreement.

 

11.     Termination. Upon payment in full of the Obligations, and termination of any further obligation of the Lender to extend any credit to Borrower under the Loan Documents, this Agreement shall terminate and the Lender shall promptly execute appropriate documents to evidence such termination.

 

12.     Release. Without prejudice to any of the Lender’s rights under this Agreement, the Lender may take or release other security for the payment or performance of the Obligations, may release any party primarily or secondarily liable for the Obligations, and may apply any other security held by the Lender to the satisfaction of the Obligations.

 

13.     Pledgor’s Liability Absolute. The liability of Pledgor under this Agreement shall be direct and immediate and not conditional or contingent upon the pursuit of any remedies against Pledgor or any other person, nor against other securities or liens available to the Lender or the Lender’s respective successors, assigns, or agents. Pledgor waives any right to require that resort be had to any security or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Lender in favor of any other person.

14.     Preservation of Collateral. The Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral and in preserving rights under this Agreement if the Lender takes action for those purposes as Pledgor may reasonably request in writing, provided, however, that failure to comply with any such request shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care, and no failure by the Lender to preserve or protect any rights with respect to the Collateral or to do any act with respect to the preservation of the Collateral not so requested by Pledgor shall be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody or preservation of the Collateral.

 

15.     Private Sale. Pledgor recognizes that the Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of the Collateral by reason of certain provisions contained in the federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws and, under the circumstances then existing, may reasonably resort to a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of the Collateral. Pledgor agrees that a private sale so made may be at a price and on other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Collateral were sold at public sale and that the Lender has no obligation to delay sale of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit Pledgor, even if Pledgor would agree to register or qualify the Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws. Pledgor agrees that a private sale made under the foregoing circumstances and otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner under the Code.

 

16.     General.

 

 (a)     Final Agreement and Amendments. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, constitutes the final and entire agreement and understanding of the parties and any term, condition, covenant or agreement not contained herein or therein is not a part of the agreement and understanding of the parties. Neither this Agreement, nor any term, condition, covenant or agreement hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. 

 (b)     Waiver. No party hereto shall be deemed to have waived the exercise of any right which it holds hereunder unless such waiver is made expressly and in writing (and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no delay or omission by any party hereto in exercising any such right shall be deemed a waiver of its future exercise). No such waiver made in any instance involving the exercise of any such right shall be deemed a waiver as to any other such instance, or any other such right. No single or partial exercise of any power or right shall preclude other or further exercise of the power or right or the exercise of any other power or right. No course of dealing between the parties hereto shall be construed as an amendment to this Agreement or a waiver of any provision of this Agreement. No notice to or demand on Pledgor in any case shall thereby entitle Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

 (c)     Headings. The headings of the Sections, subsections, paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are provided herein for and only for convenience of reference, and shall not be considered in construing their contents.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns hereunder. In the event of any assignment or transfer by the Lender of any of the Pledgor’s obligations under the Loan Documents or the collateral therefor, the Lender thereafter shall be fully discharged from any responsibility with respect to such collateral so assigned or transferred, but the Lender shall retain all rights and powers given by this Agreement with respect to any of the Pledgor’s obligations under the Loan Documents or collateral not so assigned or transferred. Pledgor shall have no right to assign or delegate its rights or obligations hereunder.  

 (f)     Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement or the application of such term, provision, covenant or condition to any party or circumstance shall be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such term, provision, covenant, or condition to parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, provision, covenant or condition shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

 (g)     Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be given and shall become effective as provided in Section 10 of the Loan and Security Agreement. All notices to Pledgor shall be addressed in accordance with the information provided on the signature page hereto. 

 (h)     Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy of the Lender as provided for in this Agreement, or in any of the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing by law, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Agreement, or in any of the other Loan Documents now or hereafter existing by law, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Lender of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the later exercise by the Lender of any other rights, powers or remedies. 

 (i)     Time of the Essence; Survival; Joint and Several Liability. Time is of the essence of this Agreement and each and every term, covenant and condition contained herein. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect so long as any of the obligations of any party under the Loan Documents (other than the Lender) remain outstanding. Each person or entity constituting Pledgor shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of Pledgor under this Agreement. 

 (j)     Further Assurances. Pledgor hereby agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Pledgor, Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby, or to enable the Lender or any of its agents to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect to any portion of such collateral. 

 (k)     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be considered to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one in the same instrument. As used in this Agreement, the term “this Agreement” shall include all attachments, exhibits, schedules, riders and addenda.

 (l)     Costs. Pledgor shall be responsible for the payment of any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses which the Lender may incur by reason of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) any taxes of any kind related to any property or interests assigned or pledged hereunder; (ii) expenses incurred in filing public notices relating to any property or interests assigned or pledged hereunder; and (iii) any and all costs, expenses and fees (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs and fees), whether or not litigation is commenced, incurred by the Lender in protecting, insuring, maintaining, preserving, attaching, perfecting, enforcing, collecting or foreclosing upon any lien, security interest, right or privilege granted to the Lender or any obligation of Pledgor under this Agreement, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, or in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or related to this Agreement or any property or interests assigned or pledged hereunder. 

 (m)     No Defenses. Pledgor’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that Pledgor now has or may have in the future. 

 (n)     Cooperation in Discovery and Litigation. In any litigation, trial, arbitration or other dispute resolution proceeding relating to this Agreement, all directors, officers, employees and agents of Pledgor or of its affiliates shall be deemed to be employees or managing agents of Pledgor for purposes of all applicable law or court rules regarding the production of witnesses by notice for testimony (whether in a deposition, at trial or otherwise). Pledgor agrees that the Lender’s counsel in any such dispute resolution proceeding may examine any of these individuals as if under cross-examination and that any discovery deposition of any of them may be used in that proceeding as if it were an evidence deposition. Pledgor in any event will use all commercially reasonable efforts to produce in any such dispute resolution proceeding, at the time and in the manner requested by the Lender, all persons and entities, documents (whether in tangible, electronic or other form) or other things under its control and relating to the dispute in any jurisdiction that recognizes that (or any similar) distinction. 

 (o)     CHOICE OF LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (EACH, A “PROCEEDING”), PLEDGOR HEREBY (A) SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN NORTH CAROLINA AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO AGENT’S ELECTION, ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS AND (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY PROCEEDING HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND FURTHER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO OBJECT, WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING, THAT SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION NOR WILL THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY ONE OR MORE JURISDICTIONS PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. PLEDGOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND FURTHER AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT, IN ADDITION TO ANY METHODS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SERVICE OR PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING IN ANY NORTH CAROLINA STATE OR UNITED STATES COURT SITTING IN THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED TO PLEDGOR AT THE ADDRESS INDICATED HEREIN, AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE UPON RECEIPT; EXCEPT THAT IF PLEDGOR SHALL REFUSE TO ACCEPT DELIVERY, SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO MAILED.

17.     WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. PLEDGOR HEREBY (A) COVENANTS AND AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY A JURY, AND (B) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, BY PLEDGOR, AND THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE.

FURTHER, PLEDGOR HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF AGENT (INCLUDING THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNSEL) HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, TO PLEDGOR THAT AGENT WILL NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION.

Furiex Pharmaceuticals Enters into a Loan Agreement for $15 Million and Restructures its Existing Secured Loan

 

MORRISVILLE, N.C. (October 1, 2013) - Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: FURX) announced today it has executed a $15 million debt financing transaction with Fred Eshelman, Pharm.D., chairman and a 27.5% shareholder of Furiex. In parallel, Furiex has also entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with MidCap Financial, LLC and Silicon Valley Bank to restructure its existing $40 million credit facility (MidCap/SVB Loan). The restructured agreement defers payment of principal until May 15, 2014 with a flexible amortization schedule linked to Furiex's receipt of alogliptin royalties.

 

Under the terms of Dr. Eshelman's loan agreement, his debt will be subordinated to the MidCap/SVB loan and will accrue interest at a rate of 9% per annum until maturity. The loan has an interest-only period of 12 months and thereafter will amortize principal payments of $166,700 per month plus accrued interest until the final balloon payment to be made at maturity, which will occur 91 days following repayment of the indebtedness under the MidCap loan agreement subject, however, to an outside maturity date of January 1, 2019.

 

The MidCap/SVB loan accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum with interest only to be paid monthly until May 15, 2014 at which time quarterly principal payments become due. The principal payments are set as a percentage of the alogliptin royalties received by Furiex, subject to minimum and maximum amounts. The outside maturity date for repayment of the loan is October 1, 2018.

 

Proceeds from both debt facilities will be used to fund Furiex's eluxadoline program for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS-d, that is currently in Phase III development, and for general working capital purposes.

 

"The loan commitment from Dr. Eshelman and the revised agreement with our lender provides us the financial resources needed to fund our eluxadoline program," said Marshall Woodworth, chief financial officer, treasurer and assistant secretary of Furiex. "Based on our current forecast of expected receipt of various milestone and royalty payments, we expect to have sufficient cash to fund the business through to the top-line data readout of the Phase III studies."

 

"The team is energized with the vote of confidence from our chairman and largest shareholder", added June Almenoff, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief medical officer, "Financing is out of the way, and we look forward to completing our pivotal studies on eluxadoline, a key value driver for our company."

 

About Eluxadoline

 

Eluxadoline is a first-in-class, locally-acting mu opioid receptor agonist and delta opioid receptor antagonist in Phase III development for treatment of IBS-d. In vivo studies indicate that the activity of eluxadoline at the two different opioid receptors works to modulate GI motility and decrease intestinal pain, without the constipating effects of unopposed mu agonist activity. Furiex successfully completed a Phase II study in 807 patients with IBS-d, results of which are published in Gastroenterology 2013; 145:329-338. Eluxadoline is locally active in the gut with very limited systemic bioavailability, thus potentially decreasing central nervous system effects and other systemic side effects associated with therapies currently used to manage IBS-d.

 

About IBS-d

 

Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome is a functional bowel disorder characterized by chronic abdominal pain and frequent diarrhea, which affects approximately 12 million Americans. Although the exact cause of IBS-d is not known, symptoms are thought to result from a disturbance in the way the gut and nervous system interact. IBS-d can be extremely debilitating and there are limited therapeutic options for managing the chronic symptoms. IBS-d is associated with economic burden in direct medical costs and indirect social costs such as absenteeism and lost productivity, along with decreased quality of life.

Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations and assumptions contained in this news release are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Although Furiex attempts to be accurate in making these forward-looking statements, it is possible that future circumstances might differ from the assumptions on which such statements are based. In addition, other important factors which could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: continuing losses and our potential need for additional financing; the risk that eluxadoline will fail in Phase III clinical trials; our reliance on our collaborators and the risk that revenues from royalties and milestone payments differ from expectations; our need to find a collaborator for our late-stage compounds or incur the expense and risk of commercializing them ourselves; changes in the safety and efficacy profile of our existing compounds as they progress through research and development; potential changes to regulatory guidance by regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency; the terms of new collaborative agreements that we might enter into in the future; the costs of defending any patent opposition or litigation necessary to protect our proprietary technologies; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in the SEC filings for Furiex, copies of which can be found on our website.
