Item 1.01    Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. 
On April 12, 2016, Maxwell Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) to sell certain of its assets and liabilities, comprising the Company’s microelectronics product line, to Data Device Corporation, (“DDC”), a privately-held Delaware corporation that designs and manufactures high-reliability data bus, motion control and solid-state power controller products for aerospace and defense vehicles, and industrial applications. The purchase price under the Asset Purchase Agreement consists of $21 million in cash, subject to certain working capital adjustments.
In connection with the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”), DDC will make employment offers to certain Company employees. The Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary closing conditions, including (i) subject to certain materiality exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by each of the Company and DDC; (ii) the compliance by each of the Company and DDC with their respective obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement, (iii) the receipt of certain third party consents; (iv) the transfer of certain licenses from the Company to DDC, (v) the acceptance of employment with DDC by certain of the Company’s employees to commence following the closing of the Transaction, and (vi) the other closing conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.
The Asset Purchase Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties of the parties. Such representations and warranties are made solely for purposes of the Asset Purchase Agreement and, in some cases, may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with the negotiated terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and may have been qualified by disclosures that were made in connection with the parties’ entry into the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Asset Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights for each of the Company and DDC. The Company and DDC have agreed to indemnify each other for breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and other customary matters. From the purchase price otherwise payable to the Company at the closing of the Transaction, $1.5 million will be held in an escrow account for a period of 12 months in connection with the Company's indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement
In connection with the Transaction, on April 12, 2016, the Company entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement dated July 3, 2015 (the “Loan Agreement”), with East West Bank (“EWB”), to align certain financial covenants with the Company’s remaining business following the Transaction. Among other things, the First Amendment provides that the Company will provide certain financial statements to EWB within 90 days of the end of each of the Company’s fiscal years and amends certain financial covenants, including decreasing minimum EBITDA requirements for the period of September 30, 2016 through June 30, 2017 and increasing minimum consolidated cash requirements beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2016. In connection with the First Amendment, EWB provided its consent to the Transaction, and provided a release of all liens and security interests related to the assets being sold in the Transaction.
The foregoing descriptions of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the First Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to copies of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the First Amendment, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated by reference herein.

(b)    If either party or any of its Subsidiaries is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any required consent, approval, substitution, amendment or release to a particular Business Contract or Assumed Liability, then, until the expiration of such Business Contract or Assumed Liability, (i) Seller or its applicable Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall maintain and not terminate or amend without Purchaser’s prior consent such Business Contract or Assumed Liability, as the case may be, and, (ii) unless not permitted by the terms thereof or applicable Law, Purchaser shall, as agent or subcontractor for Seller or its Subsidiary, as applicable, pay, perform and discharge, or cause to be paid, performed or discharged all the obligations or other Liabilities of Seller or such Subsidiary thereunder from and after the Closing Date subject to the terms thereof (except to the extent expressly otherwise provided herein or in the other Transactions Documents). Seller shall, without further consideration (other than reimbursement for reasonable documented costs of performing or maintaining such Business Contract, if any), pay and remit, or cause to be paid or remitted, to Purchaser promptly all money, rights and other consideration received by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of such performance, net of reasonable documented costs of performing

17



or maintaining such Business Contract, if any. If and when any such consent, approval, substitution, amendment or release shall be obtained or such Business Contract or Assumed Liability shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, Seller, shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary to, thereafter promptly assign all of Seller’s or its applicable Subsidiary’s rights and Assumed Liabilities thereunder to Purchaser without receipt of further consideration, and Purchaser shall, without the payment of any further consideration, assume such rights and Assumed Liabilities.
Section 2.06    Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Purchaser shall allocate the Purchase Price (and Assumed Liabilities and any other items, to the extent properly taken into account under the Code) among the Purchased Assets for tax purposes under Section 1060 of the Code in accordance with an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) prepared by Purchaser and delivered to Seller within 90 days after the Closing Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, which schedule shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Seller, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller and Purchaser shall file, or cause to be filed, all applicable Tax Returns in a manner that is consistent with such Allocation Schedule.
Section 2.07    Closing Working Capital Adjustment.
(a)    Pre-Closing Estimate. No later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser Seller’s good-faith estimate of the Closing Working Capital, such estimate to be prepared in accordance with (i) the same accounting principles and methods the Company has used to operate the Business and to produce the Financial Statements and (ii) the working capital illustration set forth on Schedule 2.07(a) (the “Specified Accounting Principles”). Seller shall deliver all relevant backup materials, schedules and the illustration prepared as set forth above, in detail reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, concurrently with the delivery of such estimate. Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser and Seller shall in good faith calculate an estimate of the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”) to be used to determine the Closing Date Payment.
(b)    Post-Closing Adjustment.
(i)    As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 45 days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles, and delivered to Seller an unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), together with a statement (the “Purchaser Closing Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital (“Purchaser Working Capital Amount”) and attaching all relevant backup materials and schedules.
(ii)    From and after the delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Purchaser Closing Statement, Purchaser shall provide Seller and any accountants or advisors retained by Seller with reasonable access to the books and records of the Business and cause appropriate representatives of Purchaser and Seller to be reasonably available to discuss the Closing Balance Sheet and the Purchaser Closing Statement and respond to reasonable questions of Seller and its accountant with regard thereto, all for the purposes of: (A) enabling Seller and its accountants and advisors to calculate, and to review Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital as reflected on the Purchaser Closing Statement; and (B) identifying any dispute related to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement.

18



(iii)    If Seller disputes the calculation of the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement, then Seller shall deliver a written notice (a “Working Capital Dispute Notice”) to Purchaser and the Escrow Agent during the 30-day period commencing upon receipt by Seller of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Purchaser Closing Statement (the “Review Period”). The Working Capital Dispute Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the principal basis for the dispute of such calculation and Seller’s determination of the Closing Working Capital (the “Seller Working Capital Amount”).
(iv)    If Seller does not deliver a Working Capital Dispute Notice to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period or otherwise earlier confirms in writing to Purchaser Seller’s acceptance of the proposed calculation, Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement shall be deemed final and binding on Purchaser and Seller for all purposes of this Agreement.
(v)    If Seller delivers a Working Capital Dispute Notice to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then Seller and Purchaser shall meet, confer and exchange any additional relevant information reasonably requested by the other party regarding the computation of Closing Working Capital for a period of 20 days after the end of the Review Period, and use reasonable good faith efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Adjustments”) any differences as to the Closing Working Capital. In the event Purchaser and Seller so resolve any such differences, the Purchaser Working Capital Amount set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement, as adjusted by the Agreed Adjustments shall be final and binding as the Closing Working Capital for purposes of this Agreement. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach agreement on the calculation of the Closing Working Capital within the 20 day period, then either Seller or Purchaser may submit the objections to the San Diego office of KPMG LLP (such firm, or any successor thereto, being referred to herein as the “Designated Accounting Firm”) after such 20th day. The Designated Accounting Firm shall be mutually directed by Purchaser and Seller to resolve the unresolved objections as promptly as reasonably practicable in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles, and, in any event, within 30 days of such referral, and, upon reaching such determination, to deliver a copy of its calculations (the “Expert Calculations”) to Seller, Purchaser and the Escrow Agent. In connection with the resolution of any such dispute by the Designated Accounting Firm, each of Purchaser, Seller and their respective advisors and accountants shall have a reasonable opportunity to meet with the Designated Accounting Firm to provide their respective views as to any disputed issues with respect to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital. The determination of the Closing Working Capital made by the Designated Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on Purchaser, Seller and Seller for all purposes of this Agreement, absent manifest error. In calculating the Closing Working Capital, the Designated Accounting Firm shall be limited to addressing only the particular disputes referred to in the Working Capital Dispute Notice. The Expert Calculations (A) shall reflect in detail the differences, if any, between the Closing Working Capital reflected therein and the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement, and (B) with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, shall be no greater than the higher amount calculated by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Purchaser or Seller as the case may be. The fees and expenses of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be paid one-half by Purchaser and one-half by Seller.
(vi)    If the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.04, is less than the Estimated Closing Working Capital (such deficiency, a “Shortfall”), then Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser the amount of such Shortfall. If the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.07, is greater than the Estimated Closing

19



Working Capital (such excess, an “Excess”), then Purchaser shall promptly pay the amount of such Excess to Seller.
Section 2.08    Risk of Loss. Until the Closing, any loss of or damage to the tangible Purchased Assets from fire, casualty or any other occurrence shall be the sole responsibility of Seller. At the Closing, title to the Purchased Assets shall be transferred to Purchaser independent of any actual or constructive delivery. Seller shall bear the risk of loss to the tangible assets included in the Purchased Assets until they have been delivered to Purchaser or its common carrier; thereafter, Purchaser shall bear all risk of loss associated with such Purchased Assets.
Section 2.09    Withholding. Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to Seller or any other Person such amounts as Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any Tax law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and remitted to the appropriate Tax Authority, such withheld and remitted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

(a)    any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser as of the date of this Agreement (without giving effect to any materiality qualification or any similar qualification contained or incorporated directly or indirectly in such representation or warranty);

(b)    Subject to Section 9.04(c), the maximum liability of Seller under Sections 9.02(a) and 9.02(b) shall be equal to $2,200,000.
(c)    The limitations set forth in Section 9.04(a) and 9.04(b) shall not apply to any claim for indemnification made pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or 9.02(b), in each case, to the extent such claim arises from or is a result of (i) any breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation or (ii) any fraud or intentional breach by Seller or any of its Representatives (regardless of whether such actions have been authorized) of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, absent fraud or intentional misrepresentation, Seller shall not have any liability for Damages pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or 9.02(b) in excess of the amounts actually received by Seller from Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.
(e)    The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided for under this Agreement shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of all deductibles, co-payments, retro-premium obligations and premium increases attributable thereto and all costs of collection of any such insurance proceeds) by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Damages. To the extent such proceeds or amounts are recovered or realized after an Indemnifying Party makes an indemnification payment hereunder with respect to such Damages, the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit such amounts to the Indemnifying Party. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Damages; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall be required to make or pursue any claims for insurance and/or other payments available from third parties with respect to Damages for which it seeks indemnification hereunder.
(f)    Except in the case of fraud or willful or intentional misrepresentation, the indemnification provisions contained in this Article 9 are intended to provide the sole and exclusive remedy following the Closing as to all Damages any Indemnified Party may incur arising from or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions (it being understood that nothing in this Section 9.04(f) or elsewhere in this Agreement

52



shall affect the parties’ rights to specific performance or other equitable remedies with respect to the covenants referred to in this Agreement or to be performed after the Closing.
Section 9.05    Claims and Procedures.
(a)    If at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.01(a), Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, determines in good faith that a Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, has a bona fide claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9, Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, may deliver to the party obligated to indemnify under this Article 9, whether Purchaser or Seller, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”), a certificate signed by any officer of the Indemnified Party (any certificate delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.05(a) an “Officer’s Claim Certificate”):
(i)    stating that an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9;
(ii)    to the extent possible, containing a good faith non-binding, preliminary estimate of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled to receive, which shall be the amount of Damages such Indemnified Party claims to have so incurred or suffered or could reasonably be expected to incur or suffer; and
(iii)    specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Purchaser) the material facts known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such claim.
No delay in providing such Officer’s Claim Certificate prior to the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.01(a) shall affect an Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.
(b)    At the time of delivery of any Officer’s Claim Certificate by Purchaser to Seller, a duplicate copy of such Officer’s Claim Certificate shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent by or on behalf of Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Party) if any funds remain in the Escrow Fund.
(c)    If the Indemnifying Party in good faith objects to any claim made in any Officer’s Claim Certificate, then the Indemnifying Party shall deliver a written notice (a “Claim Dispute Notice”) to Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, during the 45-day period commencing upon receipt by the Indemnifying Party of the Officer’s Claim Certificate. The Claim Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the principal basis for the dispute of any claim made in the Officer’s Claim Certificate. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver a Claim Dispute Notice prior to the expiration of such 45-day period, then (i) each claim for indemnification set forth in such Officer’s Claim Certificate shall be deemed to have been conclusively determined in the Indemnified Party’s favor for purposes of this Article 9 on the terms set forth in the Officer’s Claim Certificate and, (ii) in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party, if cash remains in the Escrow Fund, then Purchaser may direct the Escrow Agent to deliver cash from the Escrow Fund to Purchaser in accordance with this Section 9.05.
(d)    If the Indemnifying Party delivers a Claim Dispute Notice, then Purchaser and Seller shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such objections raised by the Indemnifying Party in such Claim Dispute Notice. If Purchaser and Seller agree to a resolution of such objection, then a memorandum setting forth the matters conclusively determined by Purchaser and Seller shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, in the case of a claim by a Purchaser Indemnified Party, if cash remains in the Escrow Fund, promptly

53



delivered to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to distribute cash from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of such memorandum.
(e)    If no such resolution can be reached during the 45-day period following Purchaser’s or Seller’s, as applicable, receipt of a given Claim Dispute Notice, then upon the expiration of such 45-day period, either Purchaser or Seller may bring suit to resolve the objection in accordance with Sections 10.06, 10.07 and 10.08. The decision of the trial court as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Claim Certificate shall be nonappealable, binding and conclusive upon Purchaser and Seller and, in the case of a claim by a Purchaser Indemnified Party, Purchaser and Seller shall promptly direct the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with such decision and distribute cash from the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Judgment upon any award rendered by the trial court may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Section 9.06    Defense of Third-Party Claims. In the event of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the existence of such Third-Party Claim, including, if known, the amount, or if reasonably estimable, the estimated amount, of the Damages related thereto (a “Third-Party Notice”) and must deliver copies of any documents served on the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure on the part of an Indemnified Party to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Article 9 (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such Proceeding).
(a)    In the case of a Third-Party Claim arising from an Excluded Liability, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly, and in any event within 30 days after receiving a Third-Party Notice, assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim at its own cost and through counsel of its choosing. In the case of a Third-Party Claim not arising from an Excluded Liability, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days after receiving a Third-Party Notice, to assume and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim at its own cost and through counsel of its choosing.
(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume or control the defense of any Third-Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party acknowledges to the Indemnified Party in writing that it will, conditioned upon its assumption or control of such Third-Party Claim, indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume and control the defense of any Third-Party Claim if: (i) such Third-Party Claim involves criminal allegations with respect to the Business or any Purchaser Indemnified Party, (ii) outside counsel advises the Indemnified Party that there are conflicts of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim that cannot be waived, (iii) such Third-Party Claim seeks relief other than monetary damages (except where any non-monetary relief being sought is merely incidental to a primary claim for monetary damages or would not reasonably be expected to affect the Business) and/or (iv) such Third-Party Claim (A) alleges a violation of Applicable Law with respect to the Business, (B) is instituted or asserted by (i) a Governmental Authority (ii) a Significant Customer or (iii) the Landlord or any successor thereto with respect to the use, generation or disposal of any Hazardous Substances or the clean up or remediation of any Hazardous Substances, or (C) involves any Seller-Owned Intellectual Property Rights.
(c)    In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to compromise and settle all indemnifiable matters related to Third-Party Claims which are susceptible to being settled, except to the extent that (i) such settlement would involve relief other than monetary damages (or would involve monetary relief in excess of the limits

54



of indemnification set forth herein), or (ii) such settlement does not include an unconditional release in favor of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall from time to time apprise the Indemnified Party of the status of the claim, liability or expense and any resulting suit, proceeding or enforcement action and shall furnish the Indemnified Party with such documents and information filed or delivered in connection with such claim, liability or expense as the Indemnified Party may reasonably request.
(d)    The Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability to any third party in connection with any matter which is the subject of a Third-Party Notice and shall cooperate in good faith as may reasonably be requested by the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such claim at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
(e)    The Indemnified Party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel.
(f)    If no notice of intent to defend is given by the Indemnifying Party within such 30-day period in accordance with Section 9.06(a), the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in good faith to make available to the Indemnified Party any documents and materials in its possession or control that may be reasonably requested and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall, have the right to compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Section 9.07    Exercise of Remedies by Indemnified Parties Other Than Purchaser or Seller. No Purchaser Indemnified Party (other than Purchaser or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Purchaser (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy. No Seller Indemnified Party (other than Seller or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Seller (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each of the parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all documents and to take, or cause to be taken, all actions that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for Seller and Purchaser, to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement, provided that all such actions are in accordance with applicable Law. From time to time, whether at or after the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance, transfer and assignment and take such other action, at Purchaser’s sole expense, as Purchaser may reasonably require to more effectively convey and transfer to Purchaser any of the Purchased Assets including documentation necessary to permit Purchaser to record the transfer of the Seller-Owned Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or a corresponding office in a foreign country, and Purchaser will execute and deliver such further instruments and take such other action, at Seller’s sole expense, as Seller may reasonably require to more effectively assume the Assumed Liabilities. Upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate with each other, and shall cause their respective Representatives and Subsidiaries to cooperate with each other, after the Closing to ensure the orderly transition of the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities to Purchaser and to minimize any disruption to the businesses of Seller and Purchaser that might result from the Transactions.

The foregoing consent shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be deemed to be a consent to changes to any terms or provisions of the Loan Documents, and shall not be deemed to be a waiver or amendment of any provision contained in any of such agreements. Upon consummation of the Asset Disposition and the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall take all actions reasonable and necessary to effect the release of its security interest in the Transferred Collateral and to give notice of such release, including (i) filing a UCC-3 Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State, (ii) recording Reassignments and Releases of Security Interest with the Patent and Trademark Office, and (iii) executing and delivering a Termination of Agreement and Acknowledgement of Security Interest with respect to Borrower’s lease of 9244 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, California 92123.
3.    Course of Dealing. No course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance




by Borrower of any provision of the Loan Documents shall not affect any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.
4.    Miscellaneous. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Loan Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.
5.    Representations and Warranties. Borrower represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained in the Loan Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
6.    Conditions Precedent. As conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment:
(a)    Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:
(i)    this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;
(ii)    a Corporate Borrowing Certificate with respect to incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of this Amendment, substantially in the form attached hereto;

(iv)    copies of the executed documents giving effect to and relating to the Asset Disposition;
(v)    a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that all of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 6 for the Bank’s consent to the Asset Disposition have been satisfied; and
(vi)    such other documents, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate;
(b)    The transactions relating to the Asset Disposition shall be consummated in all material respects in accordance with all applicable laws;
(c)    Immediately before and immediately after giving effect to the Asset Disposition and this Amendment, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no event shall have occurred or situation exist that with notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default;
(d)    The Swiss Subsidiary shall have consented to this Amendment and shall have reaffirmed its guaranty of the Obligations pursuant to the Swiss Subsidiary Guaranty Documents by executing this Amendment as set forth below; and
(e)    Borrower shall have paid all reasonable Bank Expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment, which may be debited from any of Borrower's accounts.
