INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 
1. Basis of Presentation
The information contained herein has been prepared by Inseego Corp. (the “Company”) in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The information at June 30, 2017 and the results of the Company’s operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements from which they were derived and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Except as set forth below, the accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole.
For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred a net loss of $12.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The Company has a history of operating and net losses and overall usage of cash from operating and investing activities. In June 2017, the Company terminated the proposed sale of its MiFi Business (as defined below) due to delays and uncertainty in securing approval of the sale from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) (see Note 2, Acquisitions and Divestitures). The Company also announced in June 2017 another round of expense cuts to help it achieve profitability and positive cash flow in the near term. The Company’s ability to transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level and mix of revenues adequate to support its declining cost structure. If events or circumstances occur such that the Company does not meet its operating plan as expected, the Company may be required to reduce planned research and development activities, incur additional restructuring charges or reduce other operating expenses which could have an adverse impact on its ability to achieve its intended business objectives. The Company’s management believes that its cash and cash equivalents, together with anticipated cash flows from operations, will not be sufficient to meet its working capital needs, including repayment of the Term Loan (as defined below) on May 8, 2018, for the next twelve months following the filing date of this report without additional sources of cash. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to mitigate the substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern through the incurrence of additional debt or issuance of additional equity. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segment Information
Management has determined that the Company has one reportable segment. The Chief Executive Officer, who is also the Chief Operating Decision Maker, does not manage any part of the Company separately, and the allocation of resources and assessment of performance is based solely on the Company’s consolidated operations and operating results.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, provision for excess and obsolete inventory, valuation of intangible and long-lived assets, valuation of goodwill, valuation of debt obligations, royalty costs, accruals relating to litigation and restructuring, provision for warranty costs, income taxes and share-based compensation expense.

INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

New Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), which are adopted by the Company as of the specified date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of recently issued standards, some of which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
In May 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-09, CompensationStock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements and provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step from the goodwill impairment test, which requires the comparison of the implied fair value of goodwill with the current carrying amount of goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in this guidance, an entity shall perform a goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount and an impairment charge is to be recorded for the amount, if any, in which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. This guidance is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial InstrumentsCredit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which affects entities that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The guidance is designed to identify areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The Company implemented this guidance during the first quarter of 2017. This guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which establishes the principles to report transparent and economically neutral information about the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. This guidance results in the Company providing a more faithful representation of the rights and obligations arising from operating and capital leases by requiring lessees to recognize the lease assets and lease liabilities that arise from leases in the statement of financial position and to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about lease transactions, such as information about variable lease payments and options to renew and terminate leases. This guidance is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The new guidance will require revenue recognized to represent the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires new, expanded disclosures regarding revenue recognition. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of adoption of ASU 2014-09 to interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which clarifies aspects of ASU 2014-09 pertaining to the identification of

INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas. There are two adoption methods available for implementation of this guidance. Under one method, the guidance is applied retrospectively to contracts for each reporting period presented, subject to allowable practical expedients. Under the other method, the guidance is applied only to the most current period presented, recognizing the cumulative effect of the change as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings, and also requires additional disclosures comparing the results to the previous guidance.
The Company is evaluating the impact of the new revenue guidance on its accounting policies, processes and systems. The Company has assigned internal resources, has engaged a revenue consultant and has a preliminary project plan to finalize the evaluation and complete the implementation.
The Company’s decision on the adoption method will be based on various factors including the significance of the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s financial results and system capabilities. The Company has not yet completed the evaluation of these impacts and the adoption method has not been determined.
2. Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
DigiCore Holdings Limited (DBA Ctrack)
On June 18, 2015, the Company entered into a transaction implementation agreement (the “TIA”) with DigiCore Holdings Limited (“DigiCore” or “Ctrack”). Pursuant to the terms of the TIA, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of DigiCore (with the exception of certain excluded shares, including treasury shares) for 4.40 South African Rand per ordinary share outstanding on October 5, 2015. Upon consummation of the acquisition, DigiCore became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
R.E.R. Enterprises, Inc.
On March 27, 2015, the Company entered into a merger agreement (“RER Merger Agreement”) with R.E.R. Enterprises, Inc. (“RER”) to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of RER and its wholly-owned subsidiary and principal operating asset, Feeney Wireless, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (collectively, “FW”). The total consideration was approximately $24.8 million and included a cash payment at closing of approximately $9.3 million, the Company’s assumption of $0.5 million in certain transaction-related expenses incurred by FW, and the future issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $15.0 million (the “Deferred Purchase Price”), which would have been payable in March 2016 pursuant to the original terms of the RER Merger Agreement.
The total consideration of $24.8 million did not include amounts, if any, payable under an earn-out arrangement pursuant to which the Company may have been required to pay up to an additional $25.0 million to the former stockholders of RER contingent upon FW’s achievement of certain financial targets for the years ending December 31, 2015, 2016, and 2017 (the “Earn-Out Arrangement”). Such payments, if any, under the Earn-Out Arrangement would have been payable in either cash or shares of the Company’s common stock at the discretion of the Company, and would have been recorded as compensation expense during the service period earned.
On January 5, 2016, the Company and RER amended certain payment terms of the RER Merger Agreement. Under the amended agreement, the Deferred Purchase Price that was previously payable in shares of the Company’s common stock in March 2016 was agreed to be paid in five cash installments over a four-year period, beginning in March 2016. In addition, the Earn-Out Arrangement was amended as follows: (a) any amount earned under the Earn-Out Arrangement for the achievement of financial targets for the year ended December 31, 2015 would be paid in five cash installments over a four-year period, beginning in March 2016; and (b) in replacement of the potential earn-out contingent upon FW’s achievement of certain financial targets for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 the Company would issue to the former stockholders of RER approximately 2.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock in three equal installments over a three-year period, beginning in March 2017. On March 15, 2017, the Company issued 973,334 shares of its common stock to the former stockholders of RER in satisfaction of the first installment of this obligation. As of the filing date of this report, the March 2017 cash installments have not been paid and the Company is disputing its obligations to make such payments (see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies).
On March 23, 2017, the name of Feeney Wireless, LLC was changed to Inseego North America, LLC.

As of June 30, 2017, the total amount of Deferred Purchase Price that remained outstanding was $11.3 million and the total amount outstanding pursuant to the Earn-Out Arrangement was $9.8 million, both of which are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and in other long-term liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Divestitures
Modules Business
On April 11, 2016, the Company signed a definitive asset purchase agreement with Telit Technologies (Cyprus) Limited and Telit Wireless Solutions, Inc. (collectively, “Telit”) pursuant to which the Company sold, and Telit acquired, certain hardware modules and related assets for an initial purchase price of $11.0 million in cash, which included $9.0 million that was paid to the Company on the closing date of the transaction, $1.0 million that would be paid to the Company in equal quarterly installments over a two-year period in connection with the provision by the Company of certain transition services and $1.0 million that would be paid to the Company following the satisfaction of certain conditions by the Company, including the assignment of specified contracts and the delivery of certain certifications and approvals. The Company also had the potential to receive an additional cash payment of approximately $3.8 million from Telit related to their purchase of module product inventory from the Company, $1.0 million of which would be paid to the Company in equal quarterly installments over the two-year period following the closing date in connection with the provision by the Company of certain transition services. In addition to the above, the Company may have been entitled to receive a subsequent earn-out payment following the closing of the transaction if certain conditions were met.
On September 29, 2016, the Company entered into a Final Resolution Letter Agreement (the “Final Resolution”) with Telit. Per the Final Resolution, Telit agreed to pay the Company $2.1 million in full satisfaction of their payment obligations under certain sections of the original purchase agreement, including all installment payments, and the Company agreed to ship the remainder of the hardware modules and related assets as soon as practicable. Under the Final Resolution, the aggregate purchase consideration totaled $11.7 million, which consisted of $11.3 million in cash and $0.4 million in net settled Company liabilities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company shipped the remaining hardware modules and related assets due to Telit under the Final Resolution and recognized a related gain of approximately $45,000, which is included in other income (expense), net, in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
MiFi Business
On September 21, 2016, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Inseego and Novatel Wireless, Inc. (“Novatel Wireless”), on the one hand, and T.C.L. Industries Holdings (H.K.) Limited and Jade Ocean Global Limited (collectively, the “Purchasers”) on the other hand. The Purchase Agreement related to a proposed sale of the Company’s subsidiary, Novatel Wireless, which included the Company’s MiFi branded hotspots and USB modem product lines (the “MiFi Business”), to the Purchasers for $50.0 million in cash, subject to potential adjustment for Novatel Wireless’s working capital as of the closing date. In June 2017, the Company terminated the Purchase Agreement due to delays and uncertainty in securing approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement from CFIUS. As a result of such termination, the Company will retain its ownership interest in Novatel Wireless and the MiFi Business. The Company intends to retain such business and has no plans to sell it to another party.

4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The balances in goodwill and other intangible assets were primarily a result of the Company’s acquisitions of Ctrack and FW. See Note 4, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for a discussion of the components of goodwill and additional information regarding other intangible assets.
5. Fair Value Measurement of Assets and Liabilities
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). A fair value measurement reflects the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best available information. These assumptions include the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique (such as a pricing model) and the risks inherent in the inputs to the model.
The Company classifies inputs to measure fair value using a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The categorization of financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is prioritized into three levels (with Level 3 being the lowest) and is defined as follows:
Level 1:
Pricing inputs are based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets (e.g., NYSE or NASDAQ). Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:
Pricing inputs include benchmark yields, trade data, reported trades and broker dealer quotes, two-sided markets and industry and economic events, yield to maturity, Municipal Securities Rule Making Board reported trades and vendor trading platform data. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using various pricing services and broker pricing information including Electronic Communication Networks and broker feeds.

11




INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Level 3:
Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, including the Company’s own assumptions.
The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classification on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy. There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities between fair value measurement classifications during the six months ended June 30, 2017.
The Company had no financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017.
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements as of December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

Other Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are carried at fair value or at amounts that, because of their short-term nature, approximate current fair value, with the exception of its $120.0 million in Convertible Notes (as defined below) (see Note 6, Debt). The Company carries its Convertible Notes at amortized cost. The debt and equity components of the Convertible Notes were measured using Level 3 inputs and are not measured on a recurring basis. The fair value of the liability component of the Convertible Notes, which approximates the carrying value of such notes, was $92.0 million and $90.9 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.
6. Debt
Revolving Credit Facility
On October 31, 2014, the Company entered into a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of $25.0 million (the “Revolver”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as lender. Concurrently with the acquisition of FW, the Company amended the Revolver to include FW as a borrower and Loan Party, as defined by the agreement. On November 17, 2015, the Revolver was amended to increase the maximum borrowing capacity to $48.0 million. On March 20, 2017, at the Company’s request, the financial covenants with respect to liquidity requirements and EBITDA targets, among other things, were amended in order to enable draw-downs by the Company from time to time. In exchange for such accommodations, the aggregate amount available under the Revolver was decreased from $48.0 million to $10.0 million and the applicable margin was increased to 4.00% when interest is based on the daily three-month LIBOR and 1.5% when interest is based on the prime rate.
The Revolver was secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. The Revolver included customary representations and warranties, as well as customary reporting and financial covenants.
There was no balance outstanding under the Revolver at December 31, 2016. The Company terminated the Revolver on May 8, 2017, in connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement described below.
Term Loan
On May 8, 2017, the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Lakestar Semi Inc., a private investment fund managed by Soros Fund Management LLC (the “Lender”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lender provided the Company with a single term loan in the principal amount of $20.0 million (the “Term Loan”) with a maturity date of May 8, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”). In conjunction with the closing of the Term Loan, the Company received proceeds of $18.0 million, net of a $2.0 million debt discount, and paid issuance costs of approximately $0.4 million. The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties, a material adverse change clause, as well as customary reporting and financial covenants.

INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the three-month LIBOR, but in no event less than 1.00%, plus 10.00%. Interest on the Term Loan is payable on the last business day of each calendar month and on the Maturity Date. Principal on the Term Loan is payable on the Maturity Date.
On May 8, 2017, the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Grantors”) entered into a Security and Pledge Agreement with the Lender pursuant to which the Grantors pledged certain of their assets, including the equity interests of certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries, as collateral to secure the Term Loan.
The Term Loan consisted of the following at June 30, 2017 (in thousands):

Convertible Senior Notes
Novatel Wireless Notes
On June 10, 2015, the Company issued $120.0 million of 5.50% convertible senior notes due 2020 (the “Novatel Wireless Notes”). The Company incurred issuance costs of approximately $3.9 million. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the offering to finance its acquisition of Ctrack, to pay fees and expenses related to the acquisition, and for general corporate purposes.
The Novatel Wireless Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture, dated June 10, 2015 (the “Novatel Wireless Indenture”), among Novatel Wireless, as issuer, the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Novatel Wireless Notes are senior unsecured obligations and bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2015. The Novatel Wireless Notes will mature on June 15, 2020, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The Novatel Wireless Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Company, at an initial conversion price of $5.00 per share of the Company’s common stock.
Following the settlement of the exchange offer and consent solicitation described below, approximately $0.2 million aggregate principal amount of Novatel Wireless Notes remain outstanding. In connection with the exchange offer and consent solicitation, the Novatel Wireless Indenture and the Novatel Wireless Notes were amended to, among other things, eliminate certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the Novatel Wireless Indenture and the Novatel Wireless Notes, including the merger covenant, which sets forth certain requirements that must be met for Novatel Wireless to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets, and the reporting covenant, which requires Novatel Wireless to provide certain periodic reports to noteholders. The Novatel Wireless Indenture, as amended, also provides that the form of settlement of any conversions of the Novatel Wireless Notes will be elected by the Company.
Inseego Notes
On January 9, 2017, in connection with the settlement of an exchange offer and consent solicitation with respect to the Novatel Wireless Notes, the Company issued approximately $119.8 million of 5.50% convertible senior notes due 2022 (the “Inseego Notes” and collectively with Novatel Wireless Notes, the “Convertible Notes”). The Inseego Notes were issued in exchange for the approximately $119.8 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Novatel Wireless Notes that were validly tendered and accepted for exchange and subsequently canceled.
The Inseego Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture, dated January 9, 2017 (the “Inseego Indenture”), between the Company, as issuer, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Inseego Notes are senior

13




INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest from, and including, December 15, 2016, at a rate of 5.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2017. The Inseego Notes will mature on June 15, 2022, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
The Inseego Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Company, at an initial conversion rate of 212.7660 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Inseego Notes, which corresponds to an initial conversion price of $4.70 per share of the Company’s common stock.The conversion rate is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, the issuance of stock dividends and payment of cash dividends.
At any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2021, holders may convert their Inseego Notes at their option only under the following circumstances:
(i)
during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price on such trading day;
(ii)
during the five consecutive business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Inseego Notes for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;
(iii)
upon the occurrence of certain corporate events specified in the Inseego Indenture; or
(iv)
if the Company has called the Inseego Notes for redemption.
On or after December 15, 2021, the holders may convert any of their Inseego Notes at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date.
The Company may redeem all or a portion of the Inseego Notes at its option on or after June 15, 2018 if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds 140% of the conversion price for each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately prior to the date on which the Company provides written notice of redemption, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Inseego Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such Inseego Notes, subject to the right of holders as of the close of business on an interest record date to receive the related interest. In addition, if the Company calls the Inseego Notes for redemption, a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Inseego Indenture) will be deemed to occur. As a result, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who convert their Inseego Notes in connection with such redemption.
The Inseego Notes are subject to repurchase by the Company at the option of the holders on June 15, 2020 (the “Optional Repurchase Date”) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Inseego Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Optional Repurchase Date, subject to the right of holders of the Inseego Notes on a record date to receive interest through the corresponding interest payment date.
No “sinking fund” is provided for the Inseego Notes, which means that the Company is not required to periodically redeem or retire the Inseego Notes. If the Company undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Inseego Indenture), subject to certain conditions, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Inseego Notes in principal amounts of $1,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The fundamental change repurchase price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Inseego Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date, subject to the right of holders as of the close of business on an interest record date to receive the related interest. In addition, every fundamental change is a make-whole fundamental change. As a result, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who convert their Inseego Notes in connection with such fundamental change.
The Inseego Indenture contains certain covenants, effective until June 15, 2020, that limit the amount of debt, including secured debt, that may be incurred by the Company or its subsidiaries, and that limit the ability of the Company to pay dividends, repurchase its equity securities or make other restricted payments.
The Inseego Indenture also provides for customary events of default. If an event of default (other than certain events of

14




INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Inseego Notes, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Inseego Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Company, 100% of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Inseego Notes will automatically become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Inseego Indenture provides that, to the extent the Company elects and for up to 60 days, the sole remedy for an event of default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants consists exclusively of the right to receive special interest on the Inseego Notes at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of the outstanding Inseego Notes.
Because the exchange of the Novatel Wireless Notes for the Inseego Notes described above was treated as a debt modification in accordance with applicable FASB guidance (it was between a parent and a subsidiary company and for substantially identical notes), the Company did not recognize a gain or loss with respect to the issuance of the Inseego Notes. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company recognized $3.6 million as an additional component of debt discount and additional paid-in capital attributed to the increase in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of the Inseego Notes before and after modification. The Company will amortize the debt discount on the Inseego Notes as a component of interest expense using the effective interest method through June 2020.

8. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Inseego Corp. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities (consisting of warrants, stock options and RSUs calculated using the treasury stock method) are excluded from the diluted EPS computation in loss periods and when the applicable exercise price is greater than the market price on the period end date as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The calculation of basic and diluted EPS was as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal
The Company is, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. For example, the Company is currently named as a defendant or co-defendant in some patent infringement lawsuits in the U.S. and is indirectly participating in other U.S. patent infringement actions pursuant to its contractual indemnification obligations to certain customers. Based on an evaluation of these matters and discussions with the Company’s intellectual property litigation counsel, the Company currently believes that liabilities arising from or sums paid in settlement of these existing matters, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
On May 27, 2015, a patent infringement action was brought against Novatel Wireless by Carucel Investments, L.P. (“Carucel”), a non-practicing entity (Carucel Investments, L.P. v. Novatel Wireless, Inc., et al., U.S.D.C. S.D. Florida, Civil Action No. 0:15-cv-61116-BB). The complaint alleged that certain MiFi mobile hotspots manufactured by Novatel Wireless infringed claims of patents owned by Carucel. On April 10, 2017, judgment was entered in favor of Novatel Wireless. Carucel has filed to appeal certain orders in the litigation. The Company does not believe there is merit to an appeal by Carucel and intends to vigorously defend the appeal. However, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of any appeal or other future judgment in this case, and an adverse judgment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
On May 11, 2017, the Company initiated a lawsuit against the former stockholders of RER in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware seeking recovery of damages for civil conspiracy, fraud in the inducement, unjust enrichment and breach of fiduciary duty. The Company has suspended payments due to the former stockholders of RER pursuant to the Earn-Out Arrangement and the Deferred Purchase Price pending the outcome of this litigation. There can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the future judgment in this case, and an adverse judgment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, the Company periodically enters into agreements that require the Company to indemnify and defend its customers for, among other things, claims alleging that the Company’s products infringe third-party patents or other intellectual property rights. The Company’s maximum exposure under these indemnification provisions cannot be estimated but the Company does not believe that there are any matters individually or collectively that would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

11. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 4.8% and (0.4)% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and 3.2% and 2.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rates are significantly lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to an increase in the Company’s valuation allowance related to its U.S.-based deferred tax amounts, resulting from carryforward net operating losses generated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383, annual use of the Company’s net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period.
12. Restructuring
In August 2015, the Company approved a restructuring initiative to better position the Company to operate in current market conditions and more closely align operating expenses with revenues, which included employee severance costs and facility exit related costs. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company commenced certain initiatives relating to the reorganization of executive level management (collectively, the “2015 Initiatives”). The Company continued these initiatives in 2016 with a reduction-in-force and the completion of the closure of its facility in Richardson, TX. The 2015 Initiatives are expected to cost a total of approximately $5.4 million and be completed when the Richardson, TX lease expires in June 2020.
In February and June 2017, the Company commenced certain restructuring initiatives intended to continue to improve its strategic focus on its most profitable business lines and consolidate operations of its subsidiaries with those of the Company, including reductions-in-force, further reorganization of executive level management and the consolidation of certain of its facilities (the “2017 Initiatives”). The 2017 Initiatives are expected to cost a total of approximately $3.3 million and be completed when the San Diego, CA lease expires in December 2019.

The balance of the restructuring liability at June 30, 2017 consists of approximately $1.3 million in current liabilities and $0.4 million in long-term liabilities.
In the second quarter of 2017, the Company wrote down the value of certain inventory by approximately $1.4 million, net of recoveries from a related legal settlement, related to the abandonment of certain product lines that management decided to exit. The Company accounted for the adjustment in accordance with the ASC 330, Inventory, and included the adjustment in impairment of abandoned product line, net of recoveries, within cost of net revenues in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Divestiture Activities
Modules Business
On April 11, 2016, we signed a definitive asset purchase agreement with Telit Technologies (Cyprus) Limited and Telit Wireless Solutions, Inc. (collectively, “Telit”) pursuant to which we sold, and Telit acquired, certain hardware modules and related assets (the “Modules Business”) for an initial purchase price of $11.0 million in cash, which included $9.0 million that was paid to us on the closing date of the transaction, $1.0 million that would be paid to us in equal quarterly installments over a two-year period in connection with the provision by us of certain transition services and $1.0 million that would be paid to us following the satisfaction of certain conditions by us, including the assignment of specified contracts and the delivery of certain certifications and approvals. We also had the potential to receive an additional cash payment of approximately $3.8 million from Telit related to their purchase of module product inventory from us, $1.0 million of which would be paid to us in equal quarterly installments over the two-year period following the closing date in connection with the provision by us of certain transition services. In addition to the above, we may have been entitled to receive a subsequent earn-out payment following the closing of the transaction if certain conditions were met.
On September 29, 2016, we entered into a Final Resolution Letter Agreement (the “Final Resolution”) with Telit. Per the Final Resolution, Telit agreed to pay us $2.1 million in full satisfaction of their payment obligations under certain sections of the original purchase agreement, including all installment payments, and we agreed to ship the remainder of the hardware modules and related assets as soon as practicable. Under the Final Resolution, the aggregate purchase consideration totaled $11.7 million, which consisted of $11.3 million in cash and $0.4 million in net settled Company liabilities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we shipped all remaining hardware modules and related assets, which fulfilled all of our outstanding obligations pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, as amended, and we recognized a gain of approximately $45,000 in connection with such fulfillment, which is included in other income (expense), net, in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
MiFi Business
On September 21, 2016, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Inseego and Novatel Wireless, on the one hand, and T.C.L. Industries Holdings (H.K.) Limited and Jade Ocean Global Limited (collectively, the “Purchasers”) on the other hand. The Purchase Agreement related to the proposed sale of our subsidiary, Novatel Wireless, which included the Company’s MiFi branded hotspots and USB modem product lines (the “MiFi Business”), to the Purchasers for $50.0 million in cash, subject to potential adjustment for Novatel Wireless’s working capital as of the closing date. In June 2017, we terminated the Purchase Agreement due to delays and uncertainty in securing approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. As a result of such termination, we will retain our ownership interest in Novatel Wireless and the MiFi Business. We intend to retain such business and have no plans to sell it to another party.

Factors Which May Influence Future Results of Operations
Net Revenues. We believe that our future net revenues will be influenced largely by the global demand for SaaS solutions for telematics, including our Ctrack fleet management, asset tracking and monitoring, stolen vehicle recovery, and usage-based insurance platforms. Our future net revenues will also be influenced by the demand in North America for our business connectivity solutions and device management services, as well as customer acceptance of our new products that address our markets and our ability to meet customer demand. Factors that could potentially affect customer demand for our products include the following:
economic environment and related market conditions;
increased competition from other fleet and vehicle telematics solutions, as well as suppliers of emerging devices that contain wireless data access or device management features;
rate of change to new products;
product pricing; and
changes in technologies.
Our revenues are also significantly dependent upon the availability of materials and components used in our hardware products.
We anticipate introducing additional products during the next twelve months, including SaaS telematics solutions and additional service offerings. We continue to develop and maintain strategic relationships with wireless industry leaders such as Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint, Vodafone, MTN, Telstra and Optus. Through strategic relationships, we have been able to maintain market penetration by leveraging the resources of our channel partners, including their access to distribution resources, increased sales opportunities and market opportunities.
Cost of Net Revenues. Cost of net revenues includes all costs associated with our contract manufacturers, distribution, fulfillment and repair services, delivery of SaaS services, warranty costs, amortization of intangible assets, royalties, operations overhead, costs associated with our cancellation of purchase orders, and costs related to outside services. Also included in cost of net revenues are costs related to inventory adjustments, including the FW and Ctrack acquisition-related amortization in 2016 of the fair value of inventory, as well as any write downs for excess and obsolete inventory and abandoned product lines. Inventory adjustments are impacted primarily by demand for our products, which is influenced by the factors discussed above.
Operating Costs and Expenses. Our operating costs consist of three primary categories: research and development; sales and marketing; and general and administrative costs.
Research and development is at the core of our ability to produce innovative, leading-edge products. These expenses consist primarily of engineers and technicians who design and test our highly complex products and the procurement of testing and certification services.
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of our sales force and product-marketing professionals. In order to maintain strong sales relationships, we provide co-marketing, trade show support and product training. We are also engaged in a wide variety of activities, such as awareness and lead generation programs as well as product marketing. Other marketing initiatives include public relations, seminars and co-branding with partners.
General and administrative expenses include primarily corporate functions such as accounting, human resources, legal, administrative support, and professional fees. This category also includes the expenses needed to operate as a publicly-traded company, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, SEC filings, stock exchange fees, and investor relations expense. Although general and administrative expenses are not directly related to revenue levels, certain expenses such as legal expenses and provisions for bad debts may cause significant volatility in future general and administrative expenses.
We have undertaken certain restructuring activities and cost-reduction initiatives over the years in an effort to better align our organizational structure and costs with our strategy. Restructuring charges consist primarily of severance costs incurred in connection with the reduction of our workforce and facility exit related costs.
As part of our business strategy, we review acquisition opportunities that we believe would be advantageous or complementary to the development of our business. Given our current cash position and recent losses, any additional acquisitions we make would likely involve issuing stock and/or borrowing additional funds in order to provide the purchase consideration for the acquisitions. If we make any additional acquisitions, we may incur substantial expenditures in conjunction with the acquisition process and the subsequent assimilation of any acquired business, products, technologies or personnel.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In the notes to our consolidated financial statements and in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, we have disclosed those accounting policies that we consider to be significant in determining our results of operations and financial condition. There have been no material changes to those policies that we consider to be significant since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The accounting principles used in preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements conform in all material respects to accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.

Hardware. The increase in hardware cost of net revenues is primarily a result of increased costs per unit on new products released in 2017.
SaaS, software and services. The increase in SaaS, software and services cost of net revenues is primarily a result of increased SaaS, software and services revenues.
Impairment of abandoned product line, net of recoveries. The impairment of abandoned product line reflects the additional write down in the second quarter of 2017 of the value of certain inventory related to product lines abandoned during the fourth quarter of 2016, net of recoveries from a related legal settlement.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $17.2 million, or a gross margin of 28.8%, compared to $23.2 million, or a gross margin of 37.0% for the same period in 2016. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to the changes in net revenues and cost of net revenues as discussed above. The decrease in gross margin was

24



primarily a result of decreased gross margins related to the MiFi Business, as well as the impairment of an abandoned product line as it had no related revenue.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $5.4 million, or 9.0% of net revenues, compared to $8.3 million, or 13.2% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.
Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $7.0 million, or 11.7% of net revenues, compared to $8.4 million, or 13.3% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $8.1 million, or 13.5% of net revenues, compared to $10.0 million, or 15.9% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.
Amortization of purchased intangible assets. The amortization of purchased intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
Restructuring charges. Restructuring expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $1.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and primarily consisted of severance costs incurred in connection with the reduction of our workforce, as well as facility exit related costs.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $4.9 million, compared to interest expense, net, of $3.9 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in interest expense is primarily a result of the increase in the amortization of debt discount related to the increase in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of the Inseego Notes, as defined and discussed below, as well as the interest expense and amortization of the debt discount and debt issuance costs related to our Term Loan, as discussed below.
Other income (expense), net. Other expense, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $1.0 million, which primarily related to the termination of the Revolver, as defined below. Other income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $5.8 million, which primarily consisted of a gain related to the sale of our Modules Business, partially offset by net unrealized foreign currency losses primarily related to outstanding intercompany loans that Ctrack has with certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are re-measured at each reporting period.
Income tax provision (benefit). Income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.6 million, which primarily related to certain of our profitable entities in foreign jurisdictions. Income tax benefit of $10,000 for the same period in 2016 was primarily related to a reduction in our valuation allowance related to the purchase accounting for certain intangible assets, partially offset by income tax provision related to our profitable entities in foreign jurisdictions.
Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $13,000, compared to net income attributable to noncontrolling interest of $8,000 for the same period in 2016.

Hardware. The decrease in hardware net revenues is primarily a result of the divestiture of the Modules Business in the second quarter of 2016 and the abandonment of certain legacy Enfora product lines, as well as reduced sales related to the MiFi Business, primarily in the first quarter of 2017.
SaaS, software and services. The increase in SaaS, software and services net revenues is primarily a result of our increased subscriber base as we continue to build a recurring revenue business.
Cost of net revenues. Cost of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $81.9 million, or 71.0% of net revenues, compared to $85.3 million, or 65.8% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016.

Hardware. The decrease in hardware cost of net revenues is primarily a result of reduced revenues, partially offset by increased costs per unit on new products released in 2017.
SaaS, software and services. The increase in SaaS, software and services cost of net revenues is primarily a result of our increased SaaS, software and services revenues.
Impairment of abandoned product line, net of recoveries. The impairment of abandoned product line reflects the additional write down in the second quarter of 2017 of the value of certain inventory related to product lines abandoned during the fourth quarter of 2016, net of recoveries from a related legal settlement.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $33.4 million, or a gross margin of 29.0%, compared to $44.4 million, or a gross margin of 34.2%, for the same period in 2016. The decrease in gross profit was primarily a result of the changes in net revenues and cost of net revenues as discussed above. The decrease in gross margin was primarily a result of decreased gross margins related to the MiFi Business, as well as the impairment of an abandoned product line as it had no related revenue.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $11.7 million, or 10.1% of net revenues, compared to $16.3 million, or 12.6% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.
Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $14.2 million, or 12.3% of net revenues, compared to $16.1 million, or 12.4% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.

26



General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $20.1 million, or 17.5% of net revenues, compared to $20.2 million, or 15.6% of net revenues, for the same period in 2016. General and administrative expenses decreased slightly for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily a result of our cost containment initiatives, including reductions in our workforce over the past 18 months.
Amortization of purchased intangible assets. The amortization of purchased intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
Restructuring charges, net of recoveries. Restructuring charges, net of recoveries, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $2.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and predominantly consisted of severance costs incurred in connection with the reduction of our workforce, as well as facility exit related costs and other related costs.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $9.0 million, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in interest expense is primarily a result of the increase in the amortization of debt discount related to the increase in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of the Inseego Notes, as defined and discussed below, as well as the interest expense and amortization of the debt discount and debt issuance costs related to our Term Loan, as discussed below.
Other income (expense), net. Other expense, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $1.6 million, which primarily related to the termination of the Revolver, as defined below. Other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $4.5 million, which primarily consisted of a gain related to the sale of our Modules Business, partially offset by net unrealized foreign currency losses primarily related to outstanding intercompany loans that Ctrack has with certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are re-measured at each reporting period.
Income tax provision (benefit). Income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.9 million, compared to $0.3 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in income tax provision is primarily due to certain of our profitable subsidiaries in foreign jurisdictions. Additionally, for the same period 2016, the income tax provision was partially offset by a reduction in our valuation allowance related to the purchase accounting for certain intangible assets.
Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $27,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to net income attributable to noncontrolling interest of $13,000 for the same period in 2016.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations.
Revolving Credit Facility
On October 31, 2014, we entered into a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of $25.0 million (the “Revolver”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as lender. On November 17, 2015, the Revolver was amended to increase the maximum borrowing capacity to $48.0 million. On March 20, 2017, at our request, the financial covenants with respect to liquidity requirements and EBITDA targets, among other things, were amended in order to enable draw-downs by the Company from time to time. In exchange for such accommodations, the aggregate amount available under the Revolver was decreased from $48.0 million to $10.0 million and the applicable margin was increased to 4.00% when interest is based on the daily three-month LIBOR and 1.5% when interest is based on the prime rate.
We terminated the Revolver on May 8, 2017, in connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement described below.
Term Loan
On May 8, 2017, we and certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Lakestar Semi Inc., a private investment fund managed by Soros Fund Management LLC (the “Lender”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lender provided us with a single term loan in the principal amount of $20.0 million (the “Term Loan”) with a maturity date of May 8, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”). In conjunction with the closing of the Term Loan, we received proceeds of $18.0 million, net of a $2.0 million debt discount, and paid issuance costs of approximately $0.4 million. The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties, a material adverse change clause, as well as customary reporting and financial covenants.
The Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the three-month LIBOR, but in no event less than 1.00%, plus 10.00%. Interest on the Term Loan is payable on the last business day of each calendar month and on the Maturity Date. Principal on the Term Loan is payable on the Maturity Date.

27



On May 8, 2017, we and certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Grantors”) entered into a Security and Pledge Agreement with the Lender pursuant to which the Grantors pledged certain of their assets, including the equity interests of certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries, as collateral to secure the Term Loan.
Convertible Senior Notes
On June 10, 2015, Novatel Wireless issued $120.0 million of 5.50% senior convertible notes due 2020 previously issued by Novatel Wireless (the “Novatel Wireless Notes”) which are governed by the terms of the Novatel Wireless Indenture among Novatel Wireless, as issuer, Inseego and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, as amended by certain supplemental indentures. The Novatel Wireless Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Novatel Wireless and bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2015. The Novatel Wireless Notes will mature on June 15, 2020, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The Novatel Wireless Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our election, at an initial conversion price of $5.00 per share of our common stock.
On January 9, 2017, in connection with the settlement of an exchange offer and consent solicitation with respect to the Novatel Wireless Notes, the Company issued $119.8 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.50% senior convertible notes due 2022 (the “Inseego Notes” and collectively with the Inseego Notes, the “Convertible Notes”). The Inseego Notes were issued in exchange for the $119.8 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Novatel Wireless Notes that were validly tendered and accepted for exchange and subsequently canceled. The Inseego Notes are governed by the terms of the Inseego Indenture among the Company, as issuer, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Inseego Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2017. The Inseego Notes, just as the Novatel Wireless Notes did, permit the Company to have a senior credit facility up to a maximum amount of $48.0 million.
The exchange of the Novatel Wireless Notes for the Inseego Notes was treated as a debt modification in accordance with applicable FASB guidance and the Company recognized $3.6 million as an additional component of debt discount and additional paid-in capital attributed to the increase in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of the Inseego Notes before and after modification.
The Inseego Notes will mature on June 15, 2022, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The Inseego Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our election, at an initial conversion price of $4.70 per share of our common stock.

RER Amendment
Pursuant to the amended merger agreement with respect to our acquisition of FW, we agreed to pay a total of $15.0 million in deferred purchase price in five cash installments over a four-year period, beginning in March 2016. We also agreed to pay a total of approximately $6.1 million in cash over a four-year period, beginning in March 2016, of which approximately $4.6 million remains unpaid, related to the earn-out provisions of the amended merger agreement (see Note 2, Acquisitions and Divestitures, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included with this report). As of the filing date of this report, the March 2017 cash installment of $5.3 million has not been paid and the Company is disputing its obligation to make such payment (see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included with this report).

Operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $15.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $0.8 million for the same period in 2016. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to the net loss in the period, increases in restricted cash, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and other assets, and decreases in accrued expenses, income taxes and other, partially offset by non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, including the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, loss on impairment of abandoned product line and share-based compensation expense, and an increase in accounts payable. Net cash used in operating activities accelerated in the three months ended June 30, 2017 due to the semi-annual interest payment of approximately $3.3 million related to our Convertible Notes paid in June 2017, the posting of approximately $2.5 million in restricted cash in May 2017 to collateralize previously existing letters of credit under the Revolver which was terminated in May 2017 and the payment of approximately $2.0 million in April 2017 related to the 2016 Corporate Bonus Plan. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to the net loss in the period, a gain on the divestiture of certain hardware modules and related assets, and a decrease in accounts payable, partially offset by decreases in accounts receivable and inventory and the non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, including the amortization of the acquisition-related inventory step up, debt discount and debt issuance costs, the provision for excess and obsolete inventory and share-based compensation expense.
Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $2.8 million, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $6.9 million for the same period in 2016. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily related to the purchases of property, plant and equipment and capitalization of certain costs related to the research and development of software to be sold in our solutions. Net cash provided by investing activities for the same period in 2016 was primarily attributable to the sale of certain hardware modules and related assets as well as the sale of certain short-term investments, partially offset by an installment payment related to our acquisition of FW and the capitalization of certain costs related to the research and development of software to be sold in our solutions.
Financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $16.8 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities $0.2 million for the same period in 2016. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily related to proceeds from the Term Loan. Net cash used in financing activities for the same period in 2016 was primarily related to principal payments under capital lease obligations and a mortgage bond, partially offset by proceeds from stock option exercises and employee stock purchase plan, net of taxes paid on vested restricted stock units.
Other Liquidity Needs
As of June 30, 2017, we had available cash and cash equivalents totaling $8.9 million and a working capital deficit of $18.9 million.
The restructuring announced in June 2017 is aimed at significantly reducing our cost of revenues and operating expenses in an effort to increase operating cash flows to eventually be sufficient to offset debt service costs and cash flows from investing activities. Our ability to transition to attaining more profitable operations and generating positive cash flow is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our evolving cost structure. If events or circumstances occur such that we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to reduce planned research and development activities, incur additional restructuring charges or reduce other operating expenses which could have an adverse impact on our

29



ability to achieve our intended business objectives. Our cash and cash equivalents, together with anticipated cash flows from operations, will not be sufficient to meet our working capital needs, including the repayment of the Term Loan on the Maturity Date.
We will need to raise additional funds through either the incurrence of additional debt, or the issuance of additional equity, or both, to repay the borrowings under the Term Loan on or prior to the Maturity Date. We may also decide to raise additional funds to accelerate development of new and existing services and products, to respond to competitive pressures or to acquire complementary products, businesses or technologies. There can be no assurance that any required or desired additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. In addition, in order to obtain additional borrowings, we must comply with certain requirements under the Credit Agreement or refinance the Term Loan. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of equity securities, our stockholders could experience dilution of their ownership interests and securities issued may have rights senior to those of the holders of our common stock. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt securities, we may be subject to certain limitations on our operations. Although we believe that we will be successful in securing the requisite financing required to repay or refinance the Term Loan before the Maturity Date, if adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms prior to the Maturity Date, we may default on the Term Loan, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, except for the termination of the Revolver and the incurrence of the Term Loan on May 8, 2017, as discussed above.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not engage in any off-balance sheet financing activities.
Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market risk is the risk of potential economic loss principally arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments. The major components of market risk affecting us are interest rate risk, global credit risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk.
Since December 31, 2016, there have been no material changes in the quantitative or qualitative aspects of our market risk profile. For additional information regarding the Company’s exposure to certain market risks, see “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2017, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2017 as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that was identified in the year ended December 31, 2016, which primarily resulted from a lack of sufficient resources in key accounting and financial reporting roles within the organization necessary to prepare financial statements in time to meet regulatory filing requirements. This resource constraint was primarily related to the significant distraction of the accounting and finance staff caused by the proposed sale of the MiFi Business and related activities, including the Company’s reorganization, the exchange of the Novatel Wireless Notes and the required proxy solicitation for shareholder approval of the proposed sale of the MiFi Business. Notwithstanding the material weakness that continued to exist as of June 30, 2017, management has concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.

30




During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we initiated an active program to: (a) hire additional employees and upgrade certain accounting positions to provide further support to our finance and accounting team; (b) provide additional functional and system training to employees; (c) document and formalize our accounting policies and internal control processes and to help strengthen supervisory reviews by our management; and (d) design and implement monthly manual controls to manage our financial reporting close processes and to help ensure timely preparation of financial statements. Although we had not fully remediated this material weakness as of June 30, 2017, we continue to actively engage in the implementation of these and other remediation efforts to address this material weakness.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as discussed above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, during the three months ended June 30, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item  1.
Legal Proceedings.
The disclosure in Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements includes a discussion of our legal proceedings and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company is also engaged in various other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business and, while there can be no assurance, the Company currently believes that the ultimate outcome of these other legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Item  1A.
Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, except for the risk factors listed below.
An assertion by a third party that we are infringing its intellectual property could subject us to costly and time-consuming litigation or expensive licenses and our business could be harmed.
The technology industries involving mobile data communications, IoT devices, software and services are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets and by frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. Much of this litigation involves patent holding companies or other adverse patent owners who have no relevant product revenues of their own, and against whom our own patent portfolio may provide little or no deterrence. For example, one such entity, Carucel Investments, L.P. (“Carucel”) filed a claim seeking approximately $43.0 million in royalties and damages related to past sales of MiFi mobile hotspots. After a trial in April 2017, a jury found that our products did not infringe Carucel’s patents, but Carucel is appealing the verdict and there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of this litigation. Moreover, this is just one of several patent infringement lawsuits from non-practicing entities that are brought against us or our subsidiaries each year in the ordinary course of business.
We cannot assure you that we or our subsidiaries will prevail in any current or future intellectual property infringement or other litigation given the complex technical issues and inherent uncertainties in such litigation. Defending such claims, regardless of their merit, could be time-consuming and distracting to management, result in costly litigation or settlement, cause development delays, or require us or our subsidiaries to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. In addition, we or our subsidiaries could be obligated to indemnify our customers against third parties’ claims of intellectual property infringement based on our products or solutions, as is the case in the Carucel litigation for which Novatel Wireless may be obligated to indemnify its customer, Verizon Wireless if Carucel’s infringement claim ultimately result in any liability. If our products or solutions violate any third-party intellectual property rights, we could be required to withdraw them from the market, re-develop them or seek to obtain licenses from third parties, which might not be available on reasonable terms or at all. Any efforts to re-develop our products or solutions, obtain licenses from third parties on favorable terms or license a substitute technology might not be successful and, in any case, might substantially increase our costs and harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Withdrawal of any of our products or solutions from the market could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
In addition, we incorporate open source software into our products and solutions. Given the nature of open source software, third parties might assert copyright and other intellectual property infringement claims against us based on our use of certain open source software programs. The terms of many open source licenses to which we are subject have not been interpreted by U.S. courts or courts of other jurisdictions, and there is a risk that those licenses could be construed in a manner that imposes unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products and solutions. In that event, we could be required to seek licenses from third parties in order to continue offering our products and solutions, to re-develop our solutions, to discontinue sales of our solutions, or to release our proprietary software source code under the terms of an open source license, any of which could adversely affect our business.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain further financing.
Our unaudited financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were prepared under the assumption that we would continue our operations as a going concern. However, the amount of our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2017, will not be sufficient to meet the cash requirements to fund planned operations through August 9, 2018 without additional sources of cash, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Uncertainty concerning our ability to continue as a going concern may hinder our ability to obtain future financing. Continued operations and our ability to continue as a going concern are dependent on our ability to obtain additional funding in the near future and thereafter, and there are no assurances that such funding will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable

32



terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Without additional funds from private and/or public offerings of debt or equity securities, sales of assets, or other financing transactions we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue operations. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in us.
We may have difficulty refinancing our indebtedness and a prolonged financial restructuring could cause us to lose key management employees and otherwise adversely affect our business.
Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on, among other things, our financial condition and operating performance at the time, restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness and other factors, including financial market or industry conditions, many of which are beyond our control. Any refinancing of our indebtedness could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. As a result, it may be difficult for us to obtain financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms prior to the Maturity Date, we may default on the Term Loan, which could result in a prolonged financial restructuring or, if such refinancing is ultimately unsuccessful, a bankruptcy proceeding.
A prolonged financial restructuring could disrupt our business and would divert the attention of our management from the operation of our business and implementation of our business plan. It is also possible that a prolonged financial restructuring could cause us to lose many of our key management employees. Such losses of key management employees would likely make it difficult for us to complete a financial restructuring and may make it less likely that we will be able to continue as a viable business.
The uncertainty surrounding a prolonged financial restructuring could also have other adverse effects on us. For example, it could also adversely affect:
our ability to raise additional capital;
our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and react to competitive pressures;
our ability to attract and retain employees;
our liquidity;
how our business is viewed by investors, lenders, strategic partners or customers; and
our enterprise value.
Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.
Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on, or to refinance our indebtedness, including our Term Loan and our Inseego Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt and other fixed charges, fund working capital needs and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, refinancing or restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive.
If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or otherwise obtain funds necessary to make required payments, or if we fail to comply with the various requirements of our existing indebtedness or any other indebtedness which we may incur in the future, we would be in default, which could permit the holders of our indebtedness, including the Inseego Notes, to accelerate the maturity of such indebtedness. Any default under such indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Credit Agreement relating to our Term Loan contains customary operational covenants, our failure to comply with which could result in a default under the Credit Agreement as well as a cross-default under the Inseego Indenture.
The Credit Agreement for our Term Loan contains usual and customary restrictive covenants relating to the management and operation of our business, and it is likely that any future debt arrangements we may enter into would contain similar covenants. Failure to comply with any of the covenants under the Credit Agreement or any other debt agreement could result in a default under such an agreement and a cross-default under the Inseego Indenture, which could permit the holders of the Inseego Notes to accelerate the maturity of such indebtedness. Any default or cross-default under such indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial results.

33



The indebtedness under our Credit Agreement is secured by certain of our assets, including the equity interests of certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries. As a result of this security interest, such assets would only be available to satisfy claims of our general creditors or to holders of our equity securities if we were to become insolvent to the extent that the value of such assets exceeded the amount of our indebtedness and other obligations under the Credit Agreement.
Indebtedness under our Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on certain of our assets, including the equity interests of certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries. Accordingly, if an event of default were to occur under the Credit Agreement, such as a bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or other reorganization, the Lender would have a priority right to such assets, to the exclusion of our general creditors. In that event, such assets would first be used to repay in full all indebtedness and other obligations under the Credit Agreement, resulting in all or a portion of such assets being unavailable to satisfy the claims of our unsecured creditors. Only after satisfying the claims of our unsecured creditors and our subsidiaries’ unsecured creditors would any amount be available for distribution to holders of our equity securities.
Our decision to terminate the Purchase Agreement governing the proposed sale of our MiFi Business and retain ownership of that business could have adverse effects on our business, results of operations and the trading price of our common stock.
In June 2017, we terminated the Purchase Agreement governing the proposed sale of our MiFi Business due to delays and uncertainty in securing approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement from CFIUS. As a result of such termination, we will retain our ownership interest in Novatel Wireless and the MiFi Business. While we believe that market opportunities and the underlying business fundamentals of the MiFi Business have significantly improved since we decided to seek the sale of the business in early 2016 we expect to face significant challenges as we drive that business toward profitability.
The MiFi Business has relatively low gross margins and operates in a very competitive market environment. While our MiFi hotspot products tend to have advanced features which often enable them to be sold at premium prices when they are first introduced, we also have higher costs than most of our competitors due to our small scale and heavy use of U.S.-based engineers in product development. Most of our competitors have substantially greater resources and scale, as would be expected in the relatively mature, consumer electronics product categories which comprise our MiFi Business. Our wireless data modem and mobile hotspots, for example, compete against similar products offered by Huawei, ZTE, Sierra Wireless, TCL, Franklin Wireless and NetGear. More broadly, those products also compete against wireless handset manufacturers such as HTC, Apple, LG and Samsung, which all offer mobile hotspot capability as a feature of their cellular smartphones. Failure to manage these challenges, or failure of our MiFi product or service offerings to be successful and profitable, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our decision to retain the MiFi Business means that we will continue to depend upon Verizon Wireless for a substantial portion of our revenues, and our business would be negatively affected by an adverse change in our dealings with this customer.
Historically, as a result of the significant revenues associated with our MiFi Business, sales to Verizon Wireless accounted for 54%, 54% and 52% of our consolidated net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, sales to Verizon Wireless accounted for 47% of our consolidated net revenues. While we have accelerated our engagements with prospective new MiFi customers, we expect that Verizon Wireless will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues, and any impairment of our relationship with Verizon Wireless would adversely affect our business.
Uncertainties relating to recent changes in our management team may adversely affect our operations.
During recent periods, certain members of our management team have resigned from their positions as officers or managers. While we expect to engage in an orderly transition process as we integrate newly appointed officers and managers, we face a variety of risks and uncertainties relating to these resignations and new appointments, including diversion of management attention from business concerns, failure to retain other key personnel or inability to hire new key personnel.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to report our financial results timely and accurately, which could adversely affect investor confidence in the Company, and in turn, our results of operations and our stock price.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and operate successfully as a public company. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that companies evaluate and report on their systems of internal control over financial reporting.

34



Our management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2017 as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that was identified in the year ended December 31, 2016 resulting primarily from a lack of sufficient resources in key accounting and financial reporting roles within the organization necessary to prepare financial statements in time to meet regulatory filing requirements. Notwithstanding the material weakness that continued to exist as of June 30, 2017, our management believes that there are no material inaccuracies or omissions of material fact in the Company’s financial statements and, to the best of its knowledge, believes that the consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we initiated an active program to: (a) hire additional employees and upgrade certain accounting positions to provide further support to our finance and accounting team; (b) provide additional functional and system training to employees; (c) document and formalize our accounting policies and internal control processes and to help strengthen supervisory reviews by our management; and (d) design and implement monthly manual controls to manage our financial reporting close processes and to help ensure timely preparation of financial statements. Although we believe that these corrective steps will enable management to conclude that the internal controls over our financial reporting are effective, we cannot provide assurance that this step will be sufficient and we may be required to expend additional resources to remediate the material weakness. A failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause a delay in compliance with our reporting obligations, SEC rules and regulations or Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, which could subject us to a variety of administrative sanctions, including, but not limited to, SEC enforcement action, ineligibility for short form registration, the suspension or delisting of our common stock from the stock exchange on which it is listed and the inability of registered broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, which could adversely affect our business and the trading price of our common stock.

Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

The Lender does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Lender have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto.

Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined herein shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, have the meanings provided by those definitions.

ARTICLE II

COMMITMENTS AND BORROWINGS

2.01    Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender agrees to make a single loan to the Borrower, in Dollars, on the Closing Date in the amount of the Commitment.

2.03    [Reserved].

2.04    [Reserved].

2.05    Prepayments.

(a)    Optional. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Lender pursuant to delivery to the Lender of a Notice of Loan Prepayment, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loan in whole or in part without premium or penalty subject to Section 3.05; provided that, unless otherwise agreed by the Lender (A) such notice must be received by Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. (1) one (1)






Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan and (2) on the date of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan; (B) any prepayment of the Loan shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; or if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid.

(b)    Mandatory.

(i)    Dispositions. If the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries Dispose of any property permitted by Section 7.05 (in one or more transactions), or realize any Net Cash Proceeds resulting from an Involuntary Disposition, within five (5) Business Days after any such Disposition (other than Permitted Transfers) or Involuntary Disposition, the Borrower shall prepay the Loan as hereinafter provided in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries from all such Dispositions and Involuntary Dispositions in excess of $1,000,000. All prepayments under this Section 2.05(b) shall be without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.

(ii)    Debt Issuance. Promptly upon the receipt by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of any issuance of Indebtedness not permitted under Section 7.02, the Borrower shall prepay the Loan as hereinafter provided in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(iii)    Extraordinary Receipts. Promptly upon receipt by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any Extraordinary Receipt received by or paid to or for the account of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, and not otherwise included in clause (ii), or (iv) of this Section, the Borrower shall prepay the Loan as hereinafter provided in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom.






(iv)    MiFi Break Fee. Promptly upon receipt by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any termination or break-up fee in connection with the Sale, the Borrower shall prepay the Loan as hereinafter provided in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom.

If the Borrower determines in good faith that any prepayment described under this clause (b) (1) in the case of any prepayment attributable to any Foreign Subsidiary, would violate any local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, thin capitalization, capital maintenance and similar legal principles, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) or (2) would require any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof to incur a material and adverse tax liability (including any withholding tax), in each case, if the amount subject to the relevant prepayment were upstreamed or transferred as a distribution or dividend (any amount limited as set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph, a “Restricted Amount”), the amount of the relevant prepayment shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount; provided that if the circumstance giving rise to any Restricted Amount ceases to exist, the relevant Restricted Subsidiary shall repatriate or distribute the amount that no longer constitutes a Restricted Amount to the Borrower for application to the Loan as required above promptly following the date on which the relevant circumstance ceases to exist.

2.06    [Reserved].

2.07    Repayment of Loans.

The Borrower shall repay to the Lender the aggregate principal amount of the Loan outstanding on the Maturity Date, unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 8.02.

2.08    Interest and Default Rate.

(a)    Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. To the extent that any calculation of interest or any fee required to be paid under this Agreement shall be based on (or result in) a rate that is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement.

(b)    Default Rate.

(i)    If any amount of principal of the Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii)    If any amount (other than principal of the Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Lender such amount shall thereafter, until paid, bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.






(iii)    Upon the request of the Lender, while any Event of Default exists (including a payment default), all other outstanding Obligations may bear interest, until paid, at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(c)    Interest Payments. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.09    Fees.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10    Computation of Interest and Fees.

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or
366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365 day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11, bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11    Payments Generally.

All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Lender in accordance with the instructions set forth on Schedule 2.11, in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01    Taxes.

(a)    For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by applicable law. If any such






Taxes are imposed (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Loan Party) on any payments made by a Loan Party (including payments under this paragraph), the Loan Party will pay the Taxes and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, will also pay to the Lender, at the time interest is paid, any additional amount which is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes had not been imposed. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, as provided in this Section 3.01, the Loan Party will deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender. The Loan Party will confirm that it has paid the Taxes required under this Section 3.01 by giving the Lender official tax receipts (or notarized copies) within thirty (30) days after the due date.

(b)    The Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)    The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Loan Party by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i)    Prior to the date that any Lender that is not a “U.S. Person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) becomes a party hereto, such Lender shall deliver to Borrower such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Code (including IRS Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN-E, or W-8IMY as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender, along with any applicable attachments, to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, if any.

(ii)    Any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax.

(iii)    Each Lender shall deliver further copies of such forms or other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to Borrower or as reasonably requested by Borrower.

(iv)    Each Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation required under FATCA (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations under






FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

For purposes of this Section 3.01(d), a reference to “Lender” shall include any participant to whom such Lender has sold a participation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the completion, execution and submission of the documentation described in Section 3.01(d)(iii) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(e)    If Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the Loan Parties an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Loan Parties, upon the request of Lender, shall repay to Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will Lender be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (e) the payment of which would place Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to a Loan Party or any other Person.

3.02    Illegality.

If Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or to make, maintain or fund or charge interest with respect to the Loan or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to the Loan or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from Lender, prepay or, if applicable, convert the Eurodollar Rate Loan of Lender to a Base Rate Loan, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such day, or immediately, if Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03    Inability to Determine Rates.

If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a continuation thereof, the Lender determines that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with






respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), in each case until the Lender revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

3.04    Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event any permitted assignee of the Lender is a bank:

(a)    Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, the Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(d));

(ii)    subject the Lender to any taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)    impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by the Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining the Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)    Capital Requirements. If the Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting the Lender or the Lender’s Office or the Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital or on the capital of the Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of the Lender or the Loan made by the Lender, to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies and the policies of the Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or the Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d)    Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, (i) as long as the Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional






interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as the Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice of such additional interest or costs from the Lender. If the Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.

(e)    Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.05    Compensation for Losses. In the event any permitted assignee of the Lender is a bank:

Upon demand of the Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate the Lender for and hold the Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a)    any payment or prepayment of the Loan to the extent it is a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b)    any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of the Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by the Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lender under this Section 3.05, the Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.






3.06    Survival.

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

The Lender’s books and records showing the amount of the Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon each Guarantor, and conclusive, absent manifest error, for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Secured Obligations. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Secured Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Secured Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Secured Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Guarantors, or any of them, under this Guaranty, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing.

9.02    Rights of Lender.

Each Guarantor consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Secured Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Secured Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of such Guarantor.






9.03    Certain Waivers.

Each Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (b) any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any Guarantor’s liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Secured Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable Law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. Each Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Secured Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Secured Obligations.

9.04    Obligations Independent.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Secured Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

9.05    Subrogation.

No Guarantor shall exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Secured Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Facility is terminated. If any amounts are paid to a Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce the amount of the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

9.06    Termination; Reinstatement.

This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Secured Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until the Facility Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or a Guarantor is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its right of setoff, if any, in respect of the Secured Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty.






9.07    Stay of Acceleration.

If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Secured Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against a Guarantor or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by each Guarantor, jointly and severally, immediately upon demand by the Secured Parties.

9.08    Condition of Borrower.

Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from the Borrower and any other guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other guarantor as such Guarantor requires, and that none of the Secured Parties has any duty, and such Guarantor is not relying on the Secured Parties at any time, to disclose to it any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any other guarantor (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same).

9.09    Appointment of Borrower.

Each of the Loan Parties hereby appoints the Borrower to act as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other documents and electronic platforms entered into in connection herewith and agrees that (a) the Borrower may execute such documents and provided such authorizations on behalf of such Loan Parties as the Borrower deems appropriate in its sole discretion and each Loan Party shall be obligated by all of the terms of any such document and/or authorization executed on its behalf, (b) any notice or communication delivered by the Lender to the Borrower shall be deemed delivered to each Loan Party and (c) the Lender may accept, and be permitted to rely on, any document, authorization, instrument or agreement executed by the Borrower on behalf of each of the Loan Parties.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary.

The rights of the Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender may have. The Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Lender, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Lender and when the Lender shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.

Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered under the terms of any Loan






Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

10.11    Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the security interests granted under this Agreement shall not extend to (a) Excluded Property, (b) any General Intangible, permit, lease, license, contract or other Instrument, and the Equipment or Goods the subject thereof, of a Grantor to the extent the grant of a security interest in such General Intangible, permit, lease, license, contract or other Instrument in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, under the terms thereof or under applicable Law, is prohibited and would result in the termination thereof or give the other parties thereto the right to terminate, accelerate or otherwise alter such Grantor’s rights, titles and interests thereunder (including upon the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both), (c) any assets of any Foreign Subsidiary (or any Subsidiary thereof) or (d) any United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of or render void or result in the cancellation of, any registration issued as a result of such intent-to-use trademark applications under applicable Law; provided that upon submission and acceptance by the USPTO of an amendment to allege pursuant to 15 U.S.C.

The Grantors and the Lender, on behalf of the Secured Parties, hereby acknowledge and agree that the security interest created hereby in the Collateral (a) constitutes continuing collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising and (b) is not to be construed as an assignment of any Intellectual Property.






3.    Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Lender, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that until the Facility Termination Date, that:

(a)    Ownership. Each Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of its Collateral (other than Intellectual Property, which is exclusively addressed in Section 3(l)) and has the right to pledge, sell, assign or transfer the same. There exists no Adverse Claim with respect to the Pledged Equity of such Grantor.

(b)    Security Interest/Priority. This Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Lender, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral of such Grantor and, when properly perfected by filing, shall constitute a valid and perfected, first priority security interest in such Collateral (including all uncertificated Pledged Equity consisting of partnership or limited liability company interests that do not constitute Securities), to the extent such security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC, free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens. No Grantor has authenticated any agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file a financing statement, except to perfect Permitted Liens. The taking possession by the Lender of the certificated securities (if any) evidencing the Pledged Equity and all other Instruments constituting Collateral will perfect and establish the first priority of the Lender’s security interest in all the Pledged Equity evidenced by such certificated securities and such Instruments. With respect to any Collateral consisting of a Deposit Account, Securities Entitlement or held in a Securities Account, upon execution and delivery by the applicable Grantor, the applicable Securities Intermediary and the Lender of an agreement granting control to the Lender over such Collateral, the Lender shall have a valid and perfected, first priority security interest in such Collateral.

(c)    Types of Collateral. None of the Collateral consists of, or is the Proceeds of, (i) As-Extracted Collateral, (ii) Farm Products, (iii) Manufactured Homes, (iv) standing timber, (v) an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine or related property, (vi) an aircraft leasehold interest, (vii) a Vessel or (viii) any other interest in or to any of the foregoing.

(d)    Accounts. (i) Each Account of the Grantors and the papers and documents relating thereto are in all material respects what they purport to be, (ii) each Account arises out of (A) a bona fide sale of goods sold and delivered by such Grantor (or is in the process of being delivered) or (B) services theretofore actually rendered by such Grantor to, the account debtor named therein, (iii) no Account of a Grantor is evidenced by any Instrument or Chattel Paper unless such Instrument or Chattel Paper, to the extent requested by the Lender, has been endorsed over and delivered to, or submitted to the control of, the Lender, (iv) no surety bond was required or given in connection with any Account of a Grantor or the contracts or purchase orders out of which they arose, and (v) to our knowledge, no Account Debtor has any defense, set-off, claim or counterclaim against any Grantor that can be asserted against the Lender, whether in any proceeding to enforce the Lender’s rights in the Collateral otherwise, except defenses, setoffs, claims or counterclaims that are not, in the aggregate, material to the value of the Accounts.

(e)    Equipment and Inventory. With respect to any Equipment and/or Inventory of a Grantor, each such Grantor has exclusive possession and control of such Equipment and Inventory of such Grantor except for (i) Equipment leased by such Grantor as a lessee, (ii) Equipment or Inventory in transit with common carriers or (iii) Equipment and/or





Inventory in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or any agent or processor of such Grantor. No Inventory of a Grantor is held by a Person other than a Grantor pursuant to consignment, sale or return, sale on approval or similar arrangement. Collateral consisting of Inventory is of good and merchantable quality, free from material defects. The completion of the manufacturing process of such Inventory by a Person other than the applicable Grantor would be permitted under any contract to which such Grantor is a party or to which the Inventory is subject.

(f)    Authorization of Pledged Equity. All Pledged Equity (i) is duly authorized and validly issued, (ii) is fully paid and, to the extent applicable, nonassessable and is not subject to the preemptive rights of any Person, (iii) is beneficially owned as of record by a Grantor and (iv) constitutes all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the equity of such Issuer issued to such Grantor to the extent required to be pledged hereunder.

(g)    No Other Equity Interests, Instruments, Etc. As of the Closing Date, (i) no Grantor owns any certificated Equity Interests in any Subsidiary that are required to be pledged and delivered to the Lender hereunder except as set forth on Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate (as updated from time to time in accordance with the Credit Agreement), and (ii) no Grantor holds any Instruments, Documents or Tangible Chattel Paper required to be pledged and delivered to the Lender pursuant to Section 4(c)(i) of this Agreement other than as set forth on Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate (as updated from time to time in accordance with the Credit Agreement). All such certificated securities (other than with respect to DigiCore Holdings Limited), Instruments, Documents and Tangible Chattel Paper have been delivered to the Lender to the extent (A) requested by the Lender or (B) as required by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(h)    Partnership and Limited Liability Company Interests. Except as previously disclosed to the Lender, none of the Collateral consisting of an interest in a partnership or a limited liability company (i) is dealt in or traded on a securities exchange or in a securities market, (ii) by its terms expressly provides that it is a Security governed by Article 8 of the UCC, (iii) is an Investment Company Security, (iv) is held in a Securities Account or (v) constitutes a Security or a Financial Asset.

No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Lender on behalf of any Grantor, and no such advance or expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Grantors of any Default or Event of Default. The Lender may make any payment hereby authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity





of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by a Grantor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

7.    Remedies.

(a)    General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the Lender on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or by any applicable Law (including, but not limited to, levy of attachment, garnishment and the rights and remedies set forth in the UCC of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Lender may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others, (i) enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Grantors, take possession of the Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Grantors to assemble and make available to the Lender at the expense of the Grantors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Lender which is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting the sale or other disposition thereof, or (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the Grantors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Law, at any place and time or times, sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale (which in the case of a private sale of Pledged Equity, shall be to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof), at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for money, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Lender deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all mandatory legal requirements). Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and, in the case of a sale of Pledged Equity, that the Lender shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. The Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold. Neither the Lender’s compliance with applicable Law nor its disclaimer of warranties relating to the Collateral shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Grantor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice, specifying the place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made, is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement at least 10 days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice.





Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell any Pledged Equity which has been (A) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such offer may be advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (B) made privately in the manner described above shall be deemed to involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Lender may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any Secured Party may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Grantors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, the Lender may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by Law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Lender may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Lender or any Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder except to the extent (a) any such claims, damages or demands result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or any other Secured Party as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in each case against whom such claim is asserted, or (b) arise from a dispute among such parties and the Grantors are the prevailing party in such dispute. Each Grantor agrees that the internet shall constitute a “place” for purposes of Section 9-610(b) of the UCC and that any sale of Collateral to a licensor pursuant to the terms of a license agreement between such licensor and a Grantor is sufficient to constitute a commercially reasonable sale (including as to method, terms, manner, and time) within the meaning of Section 9-610 of the UCC.

(b)    Remedies Relating to Accounts. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i)    Whether or not the Lender has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, (A) at the Lender’s request, each Grantor shall notify (such notice to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender) its Account Debtors that such Accounts have been assigned to the Lender, for the benefit of Secured Parties, and promptly upon the request of the Lender, instruct all Account Debtors to remit all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected by the Lender and (B) the Lender shall have the right to enforce any Grantor’s rights against its customers and account debtors, and the Lender or its designee may notify any Grantor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Grantor have been assigned to the Lender or of the Lender’s security interest therein, and may (either in its own name or in the name of a Grantor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for, sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise and give acquittance for any and all amounts due or to become due on any Account, and, in the Lender’s discretion, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding to protect and realize upon the security interest granted hereunder.






(ii)    Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Lender’s own convenience and that such Grantor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. Neither the Lender nor the Secured Parties shall have any liability or responsibility to any Grantor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance.

(iii)    (A) the Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the Grantors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Lender may require in connection with such test verifications, (B) upon the Lender’s request and at the expense of the Grantors, the Grantors shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Lender to furnish to the Lender reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts and (C) the Lender in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the Accounts to verify with them to the Lender’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts.

(iv) Upon the request of the Lender, each Grantor shall forward to the Lender, on the last Business Day of each week, deposit slips related to all cash, money, checks or any other similar items of payment received by the Grantor during such week, and, if requested by the Lender, copies of such checks or any other similar items of payment, together with a statement showing the application of all payments on the Collateral during such week and a collection report with regard thereto, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender.

(c)    Deposit Accounts/Securities Accounts. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the Lender may prevent withdrawals or other dispositions of funds in Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts subject to control agreements or held with any Secured Party.

(d)    Investment Property/Pledged Equity. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof: at the request of the Lender, the Lender shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or distributions made in respect of any Investment Property or Pledged Equity or other Proceeds paid in respect of any Investment Property or Pledged Equity, and any or all of any Investment Property or Pledged Equity may, at the option of the Lender, be registered in the name of the Lender or its nominee, and the Lender or its nominee may thereafter exercise (i) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property, or any such Pledged Equity at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members of the relevant Issuers or otherwise and (ii) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property or Pledged Equity as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property or Pledged Equity upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate, partnership or limited liability company structure of any Issuer or upon the exercise by any Grantor or





the Lender of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property or Pledged Equity, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property or Pledged Equity with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Lender may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it; but the Lender shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and the Lender and the other Secured Parties shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. In furtherance thereof, each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer with respect to any Collateral consisting of Investment Property and/or Pledged Equity to (A) comply with any instruction received by it from the Lender in writing that (1) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying following receipt of such notice and prior to notice that such Event of Default is no longer continuing, and (B) except as otherwise expressly permitted hereby, upon the request of the Lender, pay any dividends, distributions or other payments with respect to any Investment Property or Pledged Equity directly to the Lender. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Lender shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Lender’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to this Section 7, each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends, payments or other distributions made in respect of any Investment Property and any Pledged Equity to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and other corporate, company and partnership rights with respect to any Investment Property and Pledged Equity to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(f)    Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Lender shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Grantors without cost or charge to the Lender, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Lender may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral. If the Lender exercises its right to take possession of the Collateral, each Grantor shall also at its expense perform any and all other steps reasonably requested by the Lender to preserve and protect the security interest hereby granted in the Collateral, such as placing and maintaining signs indicating the security interest of the Lender, appointing overseers for the Collateral and maintaining inventory records.

(g)    Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Lender or the Secured Parties to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other document relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by Law, or any delay by the Lender or the Secured Parties in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Lender or the Secured Parties shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by Law, neither





the Lender, the Secured Parties, nor any party acting as attorney for the Lender or the Secured Parties, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than (i) their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) in connection with a dispute among the parties hereto and the Grantors are the prevailing party in such dispute. The rights and remedies of the Lender and the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Lender or the Secured Parties may have.

(h)    Retention of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, the Lender may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable Law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Lender shall have provided such notices, however, the Lender shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.

(i)    Waiver; Deficiency. Each Grantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Laws in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Lender or the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Grantors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

(j)    Registration Rights. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i)    If the Lender shall determine that in order to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Collateral it is necessary or advisable to have such Collateral registered under the provisions of the Securities Act (any such Collateral, the “Restricted Securities Collateral”), the relevant Grantor will cause each applicable Issuer (and the officers and directors thereof) that is a Grantor or a Subsidiary of a Grantor to (A) execute and deliver all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Lender, necessary or advisable to register such Restricted Securities Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (B) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of such Restricted Securities Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (C) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Lender, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause each applicable Issuer (and the officers and directors thereof) to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions which





the Lender shall designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of the Securities Act.

(ii)    Each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Restricted Securities Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Laws. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7 will cause irreparable injury to the Lender and the other Secured Parties, that the Lender and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

8.    Rights of the Lender.

(a)    Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Grantor hereby designates and appoints the Lender, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Grantor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i)    to demand, collect, settle, compromise, adjust, give discharges and releases, all as the Lender may reasonably determine;

(ii)    to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof;

(iii)    to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Lender may deem reasonably appropriate;

(iv)    to receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to a Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral of such Grantor on behalf of and in the name of such Grantor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral;

(v)    to sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Lender were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

(vi)    to adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

(vii)    to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, continuation financing statements, security agreements,





affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Lender may determine necessary in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated herein;

(viii)    to institute any foreclosure proceedings that the Lender may deem appropriate;

(ix)    to sign and endorse any drafts, assignments, proxies, stock powers, verifications, notices and other documents relating to the Collateral;

(x)    to exchange any of the Pledged Equity or other property upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the Issuer thereof and, in connection therewith, deposit any of the Pledged Equity with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms as the Lender may reasonably deem appropriate;

(xi)    to vote for a shareholder resolution, or to sign an instrument in writing, sanctioning the transfer of any or all of the Pledged Equity into the name of the Lender or one or more of the Secured Parties or into the name of any transferee to whom the Pledged Equity or any part thereof may be sold pursuant to Section 7 hereof;

(xii)    to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

(xiii)    to direct any parties liable for any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Lender or as the Lender shall direct;

(xiv)    to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

(xv)    in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Lender may request to evidence the security interests created hereby in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby; and

(xvi)    do and perform all such other acts and things as the Lender may reasonably deem to be necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the Collateral.

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Facility Termination Date. The Lender shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Lender in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Lender shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-





in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This power of attorney is conferred on the Lender solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Lender or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

(b)    Assignment by the Lender. The Lender may from time to time assign the Secured Obligations to a successor Lender to the extent permitted by, and appointed in accordance with, the Credit Agreement and such successor shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement in relation thereto.

(c)    The Lender’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Lender hereunder, the Lender shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Lender shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Grantors. The Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Lender accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Lender shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Lender shall have no responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Lender has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any steps to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.
        
(d)    Liability with Respect to Accounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Grantors shall remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Account. Neither the Lender nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Lender or any Secured Party of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Lender or any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of a Grantor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
    
(e)    Releases of Collateral.

(i)     If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Lender,





at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases and other documents, and take such other action, reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral.

(ii)     The Lender may release any of the Pledged Equity from this Agreement or may substitute any of the Pledged Equity for other Pledged Equity without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Agreement as to any Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted, and this Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien, subject only to Permitted Liens, on all Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted.

9.    Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement (or after the Loan has automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement) any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Lender or any Secured Party in cash or Cash Equivalents will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement.
    
10.    Continuing Agreement.

(a)    This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the Facility Termination Date, at which time this Agreement shall be automatically terminated (other than obligations under this Agreement which expressly survive such termination) and the Lender shall, upon the request and at the expense of the Grantors, forthwith release all of its liens and security interests hereunder and shall execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Grantors evidencing such termination.

(b)    This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lender or any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any Debtor Relief Law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including without limitation any reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Lender or any Secured Party in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured Obligations.

11.    Amendments; Waivers; Modifications, etc. This Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

12.    Successors in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Grantor, its permitted successors and assigns and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Lender and the Secured Parties hereunder, to the benefit of the Lender and the Secured Parties and their successors and permitted assigns.

13.    Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in conformance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that notices and





communications to the Grantors shall be directed to the Grantors, at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

14.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which where so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by fax transmission or other electronic mail transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or electronic mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

15.    Headings. The headings of the sections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

16.    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The terms of Sections 10.13 and 10.14 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

17.    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

18.    Entirety. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

19.    Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real property and securities owned by a Grantor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Lender shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, and the Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Lender shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations or any of the rights of the Lender or the Secured Parties under this Agreement or under any other of the Loan Documents.

20.    Joinder. At any time after the date of this Agreement, one or more additional Persons may become party hereto by executing and delivering to the Lender a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit B to the Credit Agreement or such other form acceptable to the Lender. Immediately upon such execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement (and without any further action), each such additional Person will become a party to this Agreement as a “Grantor” and have all of the rights and obligations of a Grantor hereunder and this Agreement and the schedules referred to herein shall be deemed amended by such Joinder Agreement.





    
21.    Consent of Issuers of Pledged Equity. Notwithstanding any anti-assignment or other provisions in any operating agreement, limited partnership agreement or similar organizational or governance documents of any Loan Party that is an Issuer, such Loan Party hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees to (a) the grant of the security interests in such Pledged Equity by the applicable Grantors pursuant to this Agreement, together with all rights and remedies accompanying such security interest as provided by this Agreement and applicable Law and (b) waives any rights of first refusal or restrictions on transfer contained therein.

22.    Joint and Several Obligations of Grantors.

(a)    Each of the Grantors is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender under the Credit Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Grantors and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Grantors to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them.

(b)    Each of the Grantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a primary obligor, joint and several liability with the other Grantors with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that (i) all the Secured Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Grantors without preferences or distinction among them and (ii) a separate action may be brought against each Grantor to enforce this Agreement whether or not the Borrower, any other Grantor or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

(c)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other of the Loan Documents, to the extent the obligations of a Grantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such Grantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state and including, without limitation, Debtor Relief Laws).

23.    Marshaling. The Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.






24.    Injunctive Relief.

(a)    Each Grantor recognizes that, in the event such Grantor fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lender and the other Secured Parties. Therefore, each Grantor agrees that the Lender and the other Secured Parties, at the option of the Lender and the other Secured Parties, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

(b)    The Lender, the other Secured Parties and each Grantor hereby agree that no such Person shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document and each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in connection with any dispute under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether such dispute is resolved through arbitration or judicially.
