LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (as the same may be amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of August 12, 2026, among INNOVATUS LIFE SCIENCES LENDING FUND I, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, as collateral agent (“Innovatus”, and in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “Collateral Agent”), the Lenders listed on Schedule 1.1 hereof or otherwise a party hereto from time to time including INNOVATUS LIFE SCIENCES LENDING FUND I, LP, in its capacity as a Lender, COHERUS ONCOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), COHERUS INTERMEDIATE CORP, a Delaware corporation, SURFACE ONCOLOGY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and INTEKRIN THERAPEUTICS INC., a Delaware corporation (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, “Borrower”), provides the terms on which the Lenders shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay the Lenders. The parties agree as follows:

1.DEFINITIONS, ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
1.1Certain Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13 to the extent defined therein.
1.2Terms Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement, (e) any matter to be determined by a Lender or Collateral Agent may be determined in their sole discretion, unless another standard is expressly stated, and (f) any reference to any law or regulation herein shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.
2.LOANS AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
2.1Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay each Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan advanced to Borrower by such Lender and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts, including all Obligations, due to a Lender or to Collateral Agent hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
2.2Term Loan Commitments.
(a)Availability.
(i)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make a term loan to Borrower on the Term A Funding Date in an aggregate principal amount of Fifty-Five Million Dollars ($55,000,000.00) according to

340593444 v2


each Lender’s Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1.1 hereto (the “Term A Loan”). After repayment, the Term A Loan may not be reborrowed.
(ii)Subject to the Borrower having first achieved the Term B Milestone by the expiration of the Term B Draw Period and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make term loans in a single disbursement to Borrower during the Term B Draw Period in an aggregate principal amount of Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00) according to each Lender’s Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1.1 hereto (the “Term B Loan”). After repayment, the Term B Loan may not be reborrowed.    
(iii)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders may, in their sole discretion upon Borrower’s request, agree to make term loans to Borrower prior to the Amortization Date in an aggregate principal amount of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00) according to a commitment schedule to be provided by the Lenders prior to the Funding Date of such term loans (the “Term C Loan”, and together with the Term A Loan and the Term B Loan, each individually, and collectively, the “Term Loan”). After repayment, the Term C Loan may not be reborrowed.
(b)Repayment. Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest only commencing on the second (2nd) Payment Date following the Funding Date of any Term Loan, and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Payment Date immediately preceding the Amortization Date. Borrower agrees to pay, on the Funding Date of any Term Loan, any initial partial monthly interest payment otherwise due for the period between the Funding Date of such Term Loan and the first Payment Date after such Funding Date. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter, Borrower shall make consecutive equal monthly payments of principal, together with interest in arrears, to each Lender, as calculated by Collateral Agent (which calculations shall be deemed correct absent manifest error) based upon: (1) the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan, (2) the effective rate of interest, as determined in Section 2.3(a), and (3) a principal repayment schedule equal to (i) in the case of the I/O Extension not occurring, twenty four (24) months, or (ii) in the case of the I/O Extension occurring, twelve (12) months. During the amortization period, Collateral Agent shall recalculate the payment amount to give effect to each change of the Basic Rate as it occurs. All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loan and the Final Fee are due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Term Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d).
(c)Mandatory Prepayments. If an event described in Section 7.2(d)(ii) occurs or the Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Collateral Agent and to each Lender, as applicable, and in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Shares to each Lender, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (ii) the Final Fee, (iii) the Prepayment Fee, and (iv) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including, without limitation, Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.
(d)Permitted Prepayment of Term Loan. 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 that Borrower (i) provides written notice to Collateral Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loan [***] prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to the Lenders on the date of such prepayment, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of (A)

2

340593444 v2


all outstanding principal of the Term Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B) the Final Fee, (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including, without limitation, Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall also have the option to prepay part of the Term Loans advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Collateral Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loans [***] to such prepayment, (ii) prepays such part of the Term Loans in a [***] or a whole multiple [***], (iii) there has not already been a partial prepayment made in the same calendar month, and (iv) pays to the Lenders on the date of such prepayment, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of outstanding principal of such Term Loans plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B) the Final Fee with respect to the portion of such Term Loans being prepaid, (C) the applicable Prepayment Fee with respect to the portion of such Term Loans being prepaid, plus (D) all other Obligations that are then due and payable, including, without limitation, Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. For the purposes of clarity, any partial prepayment shall be applied pro-rata to all outstanding amounts under each Term Loan, and shall be applied pro-rata within each Term Loan tranche to reduce amortization payments under Section 2.2(b) on a pro-rata basis.

2.3Payment of Interest on the Term Loan.
(a)Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the Basic Rate, as determined by Collateral Agent on the Funding Date and as the Prime Rate changes thereafter, which interest shall be payable monthly in arrears in accordance with Sections 2.2(b) and 2.3(e). Interest shall accrue on the Term Loan commencing on, and including, the Funding Date of the Term Loan, and shall accrue on the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan through and including the day on which the Term Loan is paid in full.
(b)Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall accrue interest at the Basic Rate plus five percentage points (5.00%) (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) 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 other rights or remedies of Collateral Agent.
(c)365 Day Year. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year and the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day and the last day.
(d)Debit of Accounts. Collateral Agent and each Lender may debit (or ACH) any deposit accounts maintained by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes the Lenders under the Loan Documents when due. Any such debits (or ACH activity) shall not constitute a set off.
(e)Payments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made to the respective Lender to which such payments are owed, at such Lender’s office in immediately available funds on the date specified herein. Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable monthly on the Payment Date of each month. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time are considered received

3

340593444 v2


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, 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.
(f)Changes in Prime Rate. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter and because of any such change the Basic Rate changes, the Basic Rate shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day of such change in the Prime Rate.
2.4Fees. Borrower shall pay to Collateral Agent:
(a)Facility Fee. The Facility Fee, which shall be due on the Funding Date of each Term Loan (including on the Term A Funding Date) with respect to such Term Loan, to be shared among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares;
(b)Final Fee. The Final Fee, when due hereunder, to be shared among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares;
(c)Prepayment Fee. The Prepayment Fee, when due hereunder, to be shared among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares;
(d)Term B Loan Non-Utilization Fee.  If Borrower achieves the Term B Milestone and (i) fails to draw the full amount of the Term B Loan during the Term B Draw Period and (ii) fails to notify Collateral Agent, at any time before the date that is four (4) weeks after Borrower’s achievement of the Term B Milestone, of Borrower’s intent not to draw the full amount of the Term B Loan, a non-utilization fee of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000.00), with respect to the Term B Loan shall become due and payable on the earliest of (i) the termination of the Term B Draw Period, (ii) the acceleration of any Term Loan, and (iii) the prepayment in whole of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or (d); and
(e)Lenders’ Expenses. All Lenders’ Expenses incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.
(f)Nature of Final and Prepayment Fee. The Final Fee and the Prepayment Fee shall be fully earned as of the Term A Funding Date. From and after the earliest of date of any triggering event, the Final Fee and/or the Prepayment Fee, or such other premium, as applicable, shall be deemed to be principal of the Loans and shall accrue interest thereon.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, in light of the impracticality and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages, the Prepayment Fee and the Final Fee, whenever payable, are intended to be a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits, transaction costs and other potential damages as a result of any prepayment, repayment or other payment. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that the Prepayment Fee and the Final Fee are not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Borrower for any prepayment, repayment or other payment hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Obligations are accelerated for any reason, including but not limited to, because of default, the adoption of a corporate resolution approving the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, a sale, a disposition or an encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise), the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee, if any,

4

340593444 v2


determined as of the date of acceleration will also be due and payable as though said indebtedness was voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in light of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits, transaction costs and other potential damages as a result thereof.

Any Final Fee or Prepayment Fee payable hereunder shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender and the Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing, including, without limitation, damages for transaction costs and the inability, if any, to reinvest in similar loans or other debt investments.  The Final Fee and the Prepayment Fee, if any, shall also be payable (i) in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement or any other Loan Document evidencing the Obligations) are satisfied, deemed satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means and/or (ii) upon the satisfaction, deemed satisfaction, release, payment, restructuring, reorganization, replacement, reinstatement (including, without limitation, under a plan of reorganization or similar manner in any Insolvency Proceeding), the rescission or deceleration of any acceleration of the Obligations by the Borrower, defeasance or compromise of any of the Obligations (and/or this Agreement or any other Loan Document evidencing the Obligations) in any Insolvency Proceeding, foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by any other means or the making of a distribution of any kind in any Insolvency Proceeding to the Collateral Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations. THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING FINAL FEE AND PREPAYMENT FEE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY ACCELERATION OF THE OBLIGATIONS PURSUANT TO THE ADOPTION OF ANY CORPORATE RESOLUTION, THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING OR PURSUANT TO A PLAN OF REORGANIZATION.  The Borrower expressly agrees that: (A) the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee are reasonable, bear a reasonable proportion to the probable loss, and are the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee are not interest or the economic equivalent of unmatured interest; (D) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and the Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee; and (F) the Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Borrower expressly acknowledges that (W) its agreement to pay the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee to Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to Lenders to provide the Term Loan Commitments and make the Loans; (X) without such inducement Lenders would not have been willing to provide the Term Loan Commitments and make any applicable Term Loan on such economic terms; (Y) the economic terms (including, but not limited to, interest rate(s), fees, and charges) would be higher than as set forth in this Agreement; and (Z) the provision for the Final Fee and Prepayment Fee to be payable in certain circumstances is for the benefit of the Borrower in allowing the Borrower to borrow the Loans on more generous economic terms than would otherwise be available without the potential to trigger the entitlement to the Final Fee or Prepayment Fee upon the circumstances set forth herein. In the event that any party, including, without limitation, any debtor-in-possession or official committee seeks to otherwise challenge the Lenders’ entitlement to the Final Fee or Prepayment Fee, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, such premium shall enjoy a presumption of being valid and otherwise reasonable and such party (and not the Lenders) shall have the burden of overcoming

5

340593444 v2


such presumption and otherwise demonstrating such a premium is unreasonable under applicable federal or state law.

2.5Withholding. Payments received by Collateral Agent or the Lenders from Borrower hereunder will 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) to the extent provided in this Section 2.5. Specifically, however, if at any time any Governmental Authority, applicable law, regulation or international agreement requires Borrower to make any withholding or deduction from any such payment or other sum payable hereunder to the Lenders, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that (i) the amount due from Borrower with respect to such payment or other sum payable hereunder will be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such required withholding or deduction, each Lender receives a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no withholding or deduction been required and (ii) Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount (i.e., tax gross-up) described in clause (i) with respect to (A) any taxes of such Lender imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) and branch profits taxes, or (B) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Lender with respect to an applicable interest in a Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which such Lender acquires such interest in the Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment. Borrower will, upon request, furnish the Lenders with proof reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders indicating that Borrower has made such withholding payment; provided, however, that Borrower need not make any withholding payment if the amount or validity of such withholding payment is contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings and as to which payment in full is bonded or reserved against by Borrower. The agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 2.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
2.6Secured Promissory Notes. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note or Notes in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (each a “Secured Promissory Note”) and shall be repayable as set forth in this Agreement. Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, on or about the Funding Date of any Term Loan and 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 each 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 under any Secured Promissory Note or any other Loan Document 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, and without bond, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.
3.CONDITIONS OF LOANS

The occurrence of the Effective Date is subject to the condition precedent that Collateral Agent and each Lender shall consent to or shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent and each Lender, such documents, and completion of such other matters, as Collateral Agent and each Lender may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation:

Collateral Agent is hereby granted a nonexclusive, royalty free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ 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 Collateral Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders;
(iv)place a “hold” on any account maintained with Collateral Agent or the Lenders 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;
(vi)appoint a receiver to seize, manage and realize upon any of the Collateral, and such receiver shall have any right and authority as any competent court will grant or authorize in accordance with any applicable law, including any power or authority to manage the business of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to and waives any right to object to or otherwise contest the appointment of a receiver as provided above. Borrower (i) grants such waiver and consent knowingly after having discussed the implications thereof with counsel, (ii) acknowledges that (A) the uncontested right to have a receiver appointed for the foregoing purposes is considered essential by Collateral Agent in connection with the enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (B) the availability of such appointment as a remedy under the foregoing circumstances was a material factor in inducing Lenders to extend the Term Loans, and (iii) agrees to enter into any and all stipulations in any legal actions, or agreements or other instruments in connection with the foregoing, and to cooperate fully with Lenders and Collateral Agent in connection with the assumption and exercise of control by any receiver; and
(vii)subject to Section 9.1(a) and (b), exercise all rights and remedies available to Collateral Agent and each 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).
(d)With respect to a security interest in any Shares:
(i)Collateral Agent may cause any Issuer to register the ownership of its Shares in the name of Collateral Agent or of Collateral Agent’s nominee or transferee. Such registration shall be deemed a registration for the purpose of facilitating Collateral Agent’s preservation of rights, and not a disposition or strict foreclosure, unless and until all requirements of Section 9-610 or Section 9-620 of the UCC are satisfied;
(ii)upon written notice to the applicable Borrower and Issuer, whether or not the Shares are registered in the name of Collateral Agent or its nominee, Collateral Agent (or Collateral Agent’s nominee if so registered) may exercise any or all of any Borrower’s rights arising from ownership of such Shares, pursuant to the irrevocable proxy granted in Section 9.1(d)(v) of this Agreement or any other proxy or as otherwise permitted under

28

340593444 v2


applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, Collateral Agent or its nominee may (a) cast any votes in any matter, (b) take actions by written consent in any matter, (c) receive distributions, and (d) otherwise exercise or waive such Borrower’s rights in all respects. Upon further written notice to such Borrower and Issuer, Collateral Agent or its nominee may terminate the exercise of such voting rights and likewise reinstate them from time to time;
(iii)Borrower acknowledges that although the Shares may be securities for the purpose of applicable securities laws, as of the Effective Date, none of the Shares have been registered for public sale pursuant to applicable securities laws. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) although a disposition of such Shares absent such a registration may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a sale made absent such restrictions, Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Shares for the period of time necessary to permit an Issuer or Borrower to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the Issuer or Borrower would agree to do so, (b) Collateral Agent may restrict such sale to purchasers who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Shares or part thereof, and (c) Collateral Agent may take such other actions as Collateral Agent deems appropriate to assure that the sale is undertaken in compliance with all applicable securities laws;
(iv)Borrower is aware that the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission have issued various No-Action Letters that describe procedures which, in the view of which staff, permit a foreclosure sale of securities to occur in a manner that is public for purposes of Part 6 of Article 9 of the UCC, yet not public for purposes of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Borrower agrees that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in such No-Action Letters (a) shall be considered to be a “public disposition” for purposes of Section 9-610(c) of the UCC; (b) shall be considered commercially reasonable notwithstanding that Collateral Agent has not registered or sought to register the interests under the Securities Act, even if such Borrower or the applicable Issuer would agree to pay all costs of the registration process; and (c) shall not be considered to be commercially unreasonable on account of such procedures;
(v)Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral Agent as the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Borrower, with full authority in the place and stead of Borrower, and in the name of Borrower or otherwise, to cast the votes and otherwise exercise all rights arising from the ownership of the Shares as provided in this Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. This appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall be effective until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligation to provide the Term Loan terminates. No separate proxy shall be necessary to evidence such proxy rights, but if there is such a proxy, Collateral Agent’s rights thereunder are cumulative with those in this Agreement.

As provided in Annex I, Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to exercise any and all remedies referenced in this Section 9.1. Additionally, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Collateral Agent may take any action that Collateral Agent deems appropriate to address an Exigent Circumstance, even if such action would ordinarily require the consent of the

29

340593444 v2


Required Lenders or of all Lenders under other Sections of this Agreement.

9.2Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral 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 or any of its Subsidiaries’ name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ 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 Collateral 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 Collateral Agent or a third party as the Code or any applicable law permits. Borrower hereby appoints Collateral Agent as its lawful attorney in fact to sign Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full and Collateral Agent and the Lenders are under no further obligation to extend the Term Loan hereunder. Collateral Agent’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ attorney in fact, and all of Collateral Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligation to provide the Term Loan terminates.
9.3Protective Payments. If Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries fail 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 or any of its Subsidiaries is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Collateral Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Collateral Agent are Lenders’ Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the Default Rate, and secured by the Collateral. Collateral Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Collateral Agent obtaining such insurance or making such payment at the time it is obtained or paid or within a reasonable time thereafter. No such payments by Collateral Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Collateral Agent’s waiver of any Event of Default.
9.4Application 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 Collateral Agent from or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower on the one hand and Collateral Agent and Lenders on the other, Collateral 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 Collateral Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Collateral 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 and any make-whole amount due on the Obligations (including any amounts which, but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third, to any applicable Prepayment Fee or Final Fee; fourth, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding; and fifth, to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower owing to Collateral 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

30

340593444 v2


shall refer to Pro Rata Share unless expressly provided otherwise. Collateral 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 Collateral Agent or other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as instructed by Collateral Agent. If 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 Lenders’ 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 Collateral Agent and other Lenders for purposes of perfecting Collateral Agent’s security interest therein.
9.5Liability for Collateral. So long as Collateral Agent and the Lenders comply with reasonable lending practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Collateral Agent and the Lenders, Collateral 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.
9.6No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Failure by Collateral Agent or any Lender, 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 Collateral Agent or any Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. The rights and remedies of Collateral Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Collateral Agent and the Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the Code, any applicable law, by law, or in equity. The exercise by Collateral Agent or any Lender of one right or remedy is not an election, and Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
9.7Demand Waiver. Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 Collateral Agent or any Lender on which Borrower or any Subsidiary is liable.
9.8Standards. Where not expressly founded upon specific rights of Collateral Agent as a secured party under the UCC, the provisions of this Article 9 shall be interpreted as the agreement of Collateral Agent, Lenders and Borrower as to the standards measuring the fulfillment of the duties of Collateral Agent as a secured party. Borrower warrants, represents, and agrees that none of the provisions of this Article are “manifestly unreasonable” for the purposes of Section 9-603 of Article 9 of the UCC. Nothing contained in this Article shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrower or to impose any duties on Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Article.

11.1Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF BORROWER, COLLATERAL AGENT AND LENDERS UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY OF THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED HEREBY, ANY DEALINGS AMONG BORROWER,

32

340593444 v2


COLLATERAL AGENT AND/OR LENDERS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED AMONG BORROWER, COLLATERAL AGENT AND/OR LENDERS. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE. THIS WAIVER MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING. THE WAIVER ALSO SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION. THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
11.2Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
(a)Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCLUDING THOSE LOAN DOCUMENTS THAT BY THEIR OWN TERMS ARE EXPRESSLY GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION) AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER AND ALL MATTERS ARISING FROM OR RELATED THERETO SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, REGARDLESS OF THE LOCATION OF THE COLLATERAL, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT IF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN IN REGARD TO THE VALIDITY, PERFECTION OR EFFECT OF PERFECTION OF ANY LIEN OR IN REGARD TO PROCEDURAL MATTERS AFFECTING ENFORCEMENT OF ANY LIENS IN COLLATERAL, SUCH LAWS OF SUCH OTHER JURISDICTIONS SHALL CONTINUE TO APPLY TO THAT EXTENT.
(b)Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to the Loan Documents shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of New York located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, Borrower hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its Property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.  The Loan Parties shall consent to any request made by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to transfer any legal action or proceeding that (a) implicates the Loan Documents, and (b) is pending outside of New York to the courts of the State of New York located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Collateral Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against Borrower (or any property of Borrower) in the court of any other jurisdiction Collateral Agent or Lenders deem necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or other security for the Obligations. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.
(c)Service of Process. Borrower irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America

340593444 v2


with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document by any means permitted by applicable requirements of law, including by the mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of Borrower specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein). Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
(d)Non-exclusive Jurisdiction. Nothing contained in this Section 11.2 shall affect the right of Collateral Agent or Lenders to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable requirements of law or commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against Borrower in any other jurisdiction.
12.GENERAL PROVISIONS
12.1Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not transfer, pledge or assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Collateral Agent’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Collateral Agent’s discretion, subject to Section 12.5). The Lenders have the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, negotiate, or grant participation in (any such sale, transfer, assignment, negotiation, or grant of a participation, a “Lender Transfer”) all or any part of, or any interest in, the Lenders’ obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender Transfer (other than a Lender Transfer in connection with (x) assignments by a Lender due to a forced divestiture at the request of any regulatory agency; or (y) upon the occurrence of a default, event of default or similar occurrence with respect to a Lender’s own financing or securitization transactions) shall be permitted, without Borrower’s consent, to any Person which is a direct competitor of Borrower or a vulture hedge fund, each as determined by Collateral Agent. Each Lender, including any proposed assignee of such Lender that will become a Lender of record, shall deliver to Borrower and Collateral Agent, on or prior to the date such Person becomes a Lender of record under this Agreement, (i) in the case of such Person that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, a duly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Person is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax, and (ii) in the case of such Person that is not a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, such tax forms and documentation (including any duly completed and executed applicable IRS Forms W-8) as may be required under applicable law to establish that payments made to such Person under the Loan Documents will not be subject to United States federal withholding tax or will be subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty.
12.2Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Collateral Agent and the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Collateral Agent or the Lenders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with; related to; following; or arising from, out of or under, the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Lenders’ Expenses incurred, or paid by Indemnified Person in connection with; related to; following; or arising from, out of or under, the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents between Collateral Agent, and/or the Lenders and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 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

34

340593444 v2


nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Person) 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 Collateral 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 except for liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). This Section 12.2 shall apply without duplication of Section 2.5 and shall not apply with respect to (A) any taxes of an Indemnified Person imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or branch profits taxes, or (B) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of a Lender with respect to an applicable interest in a Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which such Lender acquires such interest in the Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment.
12.3Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended by Collateral Agent without the need to obtain the consent of Borrower or any Lender if such amendment is delivered in order to correct or cure (x) ambiguities, errors, omissions, or defects, (y) to effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature or (z) incorrect cross references or similar inaccuracies in this Agreement or the applicable Loan Document.
12.4Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, “charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful, the interest and charges that would have been paid in respect of such Loan but were not paid as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate therefor). Any amount collected by such Lender that exceeds the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Loan or refunded to Borrower so that at no time shall the interest and charges paid or payable in respect of such Loan exceed the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate.
12.5Correction of Loan Documents. Collateral Agent may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties. Collateral Agent shall promptly provide a copy of such corrected Loan Document to Borrower; provided, that, an inadvertent failure to do so shall not constitute a breach of Collateral Agent’s obligation hereunder.
12.6Amendments in Writing; Integration. (a) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, or any consent to any departure by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Borrower, Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders; provided that:

35

340593444 v2


(i)no such amendment, waiver or other modification that would have the effect of increasing or reducing a Lender’s Term Loan Commitment or Commitment Percentage shall be effective as to such Lender without such Lender’s written consent;
(ii)no such amendment, waiver or modification that would affect the rights and duties of Collateral Agent shall be effective without Collateral Agent’s written consent or signature;
(iii)no such amendment, waiver or other modification shall, unless signed by all the Lenders directly affected thereby, (A) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or any fees with respect to any Term Loan or forgive any principal, interest (other than default interest) or fees (other than late charges) with respect to any Term Loan; (B) postpone the date fixed for, or waive, any payment of principal of any Term Loan or of interest on any Term Loan (other than default interest) or any fees provided for hereunder (other than late charges or for any termination of any commitment); (C) change the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders to take any action hereunder; (D) release all or substantially all, or any material portion, of the Collateral, authorize Borrower to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all, or any material portion, of the Collateral or release any Guarantor of all or any portion of the Obligations or its guaranty obligations with respect thereto, except, in each case with respect to this clause (D), as otherwise may be expressly permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder); (E) amend, waive or otherwise modify this Section 12.6 or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 12.6 insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 12.6; (F) consent to the assignment, delegation or other transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document or release Borrower of its payment obligations under any Loan Document, except, in each case with respect to this clause (F), pursuant to a merger or consolidation permitted pursuant to this Agreement; (G) amend any of the provisions of Section 9.4 or amend any of the definitions of Pro Rata Share, Term Loan Commitment, Commitment Percentage or that provide for the Lenders to receive their Pro Rata Shares of any fees, payments, setoffs or proceeds of Collateral hereunder; or (H) subordinate the Liens granted in favor of Collateral Agent securing the Obligations. It is hereby understood and agreed that all Lenders shall be deemed directly affected by an amendment, waiver or other modification of the type described in the preceding clauses (C), (D), (E), (F), (G) and (H) of the immediately preceding sentence; and
(iv)Borrower’s consent shall not be required as to any amendment or waiver to Annex I, except as to Section 9 thereof.
(b)Other than as expressly provided for in Section 12.6(a)(i) and (iii), Collateral Agent may, if requested by the Required Lenders, from time to time designate covenants in this Agreement less restrictive by notification to a representative of Borrower.
(c)This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements with respect to such subject matter. 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. Except as incorporated in writing into this Agreement and the Loan Documents, there are not, and were not, and no Persons were or are authorized to make any representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements, or promises, oral or written with

36

340593444 v2


respect to the matters addressed in this Agreement or the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Borrower shall rely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into this Agreement and the Loan Documents without relying in any manner on any promises, statements, or representations of the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any parents, subsidiary, or Affiliate of the Collateral Agent or any Lender that are not expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
12.7Counterparts. 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.
12.8Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force and effect 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.
