SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Security Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of June 28, 2013, is entered into between TENGION, Inc. (“Obligor”) in favor of the parties identified as secured parties on the signature pages of this Agreement (together, the “Secured Party”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Obligor has entered into a Facility Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Facility Agreement”), with the Secured Party;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, Obligor and the Secured Party agree as follows:
1. Grant of Security Interest.
(a) To secure payment and performance of the Obligations (as defined below), Obligor hereby grants to Secured Party a security interest in all property and interests in property of Obligor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or existing, and wherever located (the “Collateral”), including, without limitation, the following:
(i) all Accounts;
(ii) all Receivables;
(iii) all Equipment;
(iv) all General Intangibles;
(v) all Inventory;
(vi) all Intellectual Property;
(vii) all Investment Property; and
(viii) all proceeds and products of the foregoing;
provided, however, that the term “Collateral” shall not include (a) any rights or property to the extent that any law or regulation applicable thereto prohibits the creation of a security interest therein; (b) any rights or property that is now or hereafter will be held by a Obligor as a lessee, licensee or debtor under purchase money secured financing; and (c) to the extent that: (i) as a result of the grant of a security interest therein, such Obligor’s rights in or with respect to such asset would be forfeited or such Obligor would be deemed to have breached or defaulted under any applicable law or regulation that governs such asset pursuant to restrictions contained in any applicable law or regulation; and (ii) any such restriction is effective and enforceable under applicable law (including, without limitation, Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any relevant jurisdiction).
(b) Obligor represents and warrants to Secured Party that there is no agreement in effect on the date hereof that prohibits the creation of the security interest provided for in this Agreement and covenants not to enter into any such agreement.
(c) Perfection of Security Interests.
(i) Obligor authorizes Secured Party (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Secured Party or its designee, as the secured party, and Obligor, as debtor, as Secured Party may require in order to perfect the security interest in the Collateral granted pursuant to Section 1(a) required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdictions as Secured Party may determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on or after the date hereof. Obligor authorizes Secured Party to adopt on behalf of Obligor any symbol required to authenticate any electronic filing. In no event shall Obligor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed while any Obligations remain outstanding, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Secured Party or its designee as secured party and Obligor as debtor.
(ii) Obligor shall take any other action reasonably requested by Secured Party from time to time to cause the attachment and perfection of, and the ability of Secured Party to enforce, the security interest of Secured Party in the Collateral.
2. Covenants Relating to Collateral; Indebtedness; Dividends. Obligor covenants that:
(a) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its name;
(b) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its chief executive office or its mailing address; and
(c) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure.
3. Remedies.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Secured Party shall have the right to exercise any right and remedy provided for herein, under the UCC (as defined below) and at law or equity generally, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process; and (ii) with or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Secured Party may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Secured Party may elect.
4. Representations and Warranties. Obligor hereby represents and warrants to Secured Party that:
2
(a) Obligor is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Delaware.
(b) The exact legal name of Obligor is as set forth on the signature page of this Agreement. Obligor has not, during the past four months, been known by or used any other composite or fictitious name or been a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, or acquired any of its properties or assets out of the ordinary course of business.
(c) The chief executive office and mailing address of Obligor are located only at the address identified as such on Schedule 4(c) and its only other places of business and the only other locations of Collateral, if any, are at the addresses set forth on Schedule 4(c).
5. Expenses of Obligor’s Duties; Secured Party’s Right to Perform on Obligor’s Behalf.
(a) Obligor’s agreements hereunder shall be performed by it at its sole cost and expense.
(b) If Obligor shall fail to do any act which it has covenanted to do hereunder, Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done, either in its name or in the name and on behalf of Obligor, and Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes Secured Party so to act.
6. No Waivers of Rights hereunder; Rights Cumulative.
(a) No delay by Secured Party in exercising any right hereunder, or in enforcing any of the Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude other or further exercises thereof or the exercise of any other right. No waiver of any of the Obligations shall be enforceable against Secured Party unless in writing and signed by an officer of Secured Party, and unless it expressly refers to the provision affected; any such waiver shall be limited solely to the specific event waived.
(b) All rights granted Secured Party hereunder shall be cumulative and shall be supplementary of and in addition to those granted or available to Secured Party under any other agreement with respect to the Obligations or under applicable law and nothing herein shall be construed as limiting any such other right.
7. Termination & Release.
(a) This Agreement and the security interests granted hereby shall terminate, and any Liens arising therefrom shall be automatically released, upon the payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations.
(b) Upon any sale or transfer by the Obligor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Facility Agreement or the Notes, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent by the Secured Parties to release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.
3
(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 7, the Secured Parties shall execute and deliver to the Obligor, at the Obligor’s expense, all documents that the Obligor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release and shall perform such other actions as reasonably requested by the Obligor to effect such release, including delivery of certificates, securities and instruments.
8. Applicable Law and Consent to Non-Exclusive New York Jurisdiction.
(a) All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such State.
(b) Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such court, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(c) Each Party hereby waives any and all rights to demand a trial by jury in any action, suit or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(d) To the extent that the Parties may, in any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any court arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, be entitled to the benefit of any provision of law requiring any Party, as applicable, in such suit, action or other proceeding to post security for the costs of any other Party, as applicable, or to post a bond or to take similar action, the Parties hereby irrevocably waive such benefit, in each case to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted under any applicable laws.

11. General.
(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon the assigns or successors of Obligor and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns.
(b) This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the matters covered thereby and supersede any and all other written and oral communications, negotiations, commitments and writings with respect thereto. The provisions of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended only by an instrument in writing signed by holders of 66 2/3% in interest of the Notes, including RA Capital Healthcare Fund L.P., if it is a holder at that time, at least one of Deerfield Special Situations Fund, L.P. or Deerfield Special Situations International Master Fund, L.P., if either of such entities is a holder at that time, at least one fund managed by QVT Financial LP, if any is a holder at that time, and Perceptive Life Sciences Master Fund LTD, if it is a holder at that time.
(c) If any provision contained in this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The Parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
(d) This Agreement and any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement regardless of any investigation made by any other Party or on its behalf, and shall continue in force until the Obligations shall have been fully paid, and Secured Party shall not be deemed to have waived, by reason of purchasing the Notes, any default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that the Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge that such representation or warranty was false or misleading on the date hereof.
7
(e) Neither the failure of, nor any delay on the part of, any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder, or under any agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, or under any agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein, preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any waiver of any right, power, privilege or default hereunder, or under any agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein, constitute a waiver of any other right, power, privilege or default or constitute a waiver of any default of the same or of any other term or provision. No course of dealing and no delay in exercising, or omission to exercise, any right, power or remedy accruing to the Secured Party upon any default under this Agreement, or any other agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof or an acquiescence therein; nor shall the action of the Secured Party in respect of any such default, or any acquiescence by it therein, affect or impair any right, power or remedy of the Secured Party in respect of any other default. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise provided by law.
