Each Guarantor further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this Section, such potential impairment or destruction of such Guarantor’s rights, if any, may entitle such Guarantor to assert a defense to this guaranty based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank v.

(d) Each Guarantor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.

(e) Each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that such Guarantor may have because the Borrower’s Obligations are secured by real property. This means, among other things:

(i) Secured Creditor may collect from any Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower or another Guarantor.

(ii) If Secured Creditor forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower or any Guarantor:

(A) The amount of the Secured Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price.

 

- 9 -


(B) Secured Creditor may collect from such Guarantor even if Secured Creditor, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right such Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower.

These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

Each Guarantor waives any right or defense it may have at law or equity, including California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a, to a fair market value hearing or action to determine a deficiency judgment after a foreclosure.

All Proceeds received by Secured Creditor hereunder shall be held by Secured Creditor in a collateral account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds, while held by Secured Creditor in any collateral account (or by such Grantor in trust for Secured Creditor) established pursuant hereto, shall continue to be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5.

- 19 -


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Creditor, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses (other than defense of payment), advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give 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 at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of a Secured Creditor or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery with assumption of any credit risk. Secured Creditor shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at Secured Creditor’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Creditor at places which Secured Creditor shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Secured Creditor shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Secured Creditor hereunder, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as Secured Creditor may elect in its discretion, and only after such application and after the payment by Secured Creditor of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Secured Creditor account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Secured Creditor arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 calendar days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Sale of Pledged Equity.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that Secured Creditor may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged 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. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Secured Creditor shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities or other interests for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) 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 Pledged Equity pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to Secured Creditor, that Secured Creditor have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 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 Specified Event of Default has occurred under the Promissory Note.

6.8 Waiver; Deficiency. Each Grantor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under Section 9-626 of the UCC.

7.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 12.11 of the Promissory Note.

7.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon Secured Creditor or any Grantor hereunder shall be addressed to such party and effected in the manner provided for in Section 12.1 of the Promissory Note.

7.3 Indemnification by Grantors. Each Grantor agrees to jointly and severally indemnify, pay, and hold Secured Creditor and its affiliates, partners, trustees, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, advisors, representatives, agents, attorneys and controlling persons (the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, brought or threatened by the Grantors, any of their respective affiliates or any other person or entity and which may be incurred by, asserted against or involve any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, the consummation of the transactions or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Collateral Documents or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that, such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted directly and primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

7.19 Reinstatement. In the event that any payment in respect of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

FORM OF NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, made as of this     day of             , 201    , by and among [MannKind Corporation][Other Grantor] (“Licensor”) and [Name of Licensee] (“Licensee”), as parties to the License Agreement (as defined below), and the secured party listed on the signature page hereto (“Secured Party”), as the holders of the Security Interest (as defined below).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Licensor and Licensee are parties to that certain [License Agreement] dated             , 20    , as it may be amended (the “License Agreement”), providing for a collaboration, license, joint venture, partnership, royalty agreement or similar agreement or other research, development, manufacturing or other commercial exploitation arrangement with respect to certain intellectual property and other property owned or controlled by Licensor (the “Licensed Property”) for the term and upon the conditions set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, Licensor has granted the Secured Party a security interest in some or all of the Licensed Property (the “Security Interest”) pursuant to that certain Guaranty and Security Agreement, dated as of September 23, 2014, among Licensor, the other grantors party thereto and Secured Party, as it may be amended (the “Security Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, Licensee has requested that Secured Party agree not to disturb any of Licensee’s rights with respect to the Licensed Property granted under the License Agreement (the “Licensee Rights”) in the event that upon an Event of Default (as such term is used in the Security Agreement), Secured Party takes possession of, sells, assigns, grants a license with respect to (other than licenses or sublicenses that Secured Party is authorized to grant in its capacity as a licensee pursuant to the Security Agreement or any other agreement with Licensor), or otherwise exercises its rights and remedies under the Security Agreement with respect to all or any portion of the collateral constituting Licensed Property (in each case, a “Foreclosure”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and of the mutual benefits to accrue to the parties hereto, it is hereby declared, understood and agreed as follows:

1. To the extent consent is required under the Security Agreement or any other agreement between the Licensee and Secured Party, Secured Party consents to the License Agreement.

2. In the event of a Foreclosure, it is agreed as follows:

 

  (a) Any transfer of the Licensed Property to Secured Party or any other purchaser at Secured Party’s sale or other disposition (any such transferee of the Licensed Property, a “Successor Licensor”) shall be subject to and not free and clear of the Licensee Rights and none of the Licensee Rights shall be discharged, waived, modified, impaired or terminated solely as a result of such transfer of the Licensed Property.

 

  (b) Provided that Licensee is not in breach of the License Agreement, which breach would permit the Licensor to terminate the License Agreement and continues beyond any cure period provided therein, if any, neither Secured Party nor any Successor Licensor will disturb, diminish or interfere with the Licensee Rights, including, without limitation, any sublicenses granted or permitted to be granted thereunder.


  (c) Provided that Licensee is not in breach of the License Agreement, which breach would permit the Licensor to terminate the License Agreement and continues beyond any cure period provided therein, if any, Secured Party undertakes that it require, as a condition of the transfer of the Licensed Property that the Successor Licensor agree to ratify and perform all of Licensor’s duties and obligations to Licensee under the License Agreement with respect to Licensed Property and to be bound to Licensee under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the License Agreement with respect to such Licensed Property for the remaining balance of the term thereof, with the same force and effect as if Successor Licensor, as the case may be, were the Licensor under the License Agreement.

 

  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Secured Party nor any Successor Licensor who acquires an interest in the Licensed Property or the License Agreement as a result of any such Foreclosure or other enforcement action or proceeding (the date on which the Secured Party, Successor Licensor, or such other party acquires such interest, hereinafter called the “Acquisition Date”) shall be (i) liable for any act or omission of Licensor under the License Agreement or otherwise or for any damages arising as a result of a breach of the License Agreement by the Licensor; (ii) liable for the return of any payments made by the Licensee to the Licensor under the License Agreement prior to the Acquisition Date; or (iii) required to perform or be liable for any affirmative obligations or covenants of the Licensor under the License Agreement, or liable for any of the representations or warranties of the Licensor under the License Agreement, or liable for any indemnities of the Licensor (other than, with respect to any Successor Licensor, any such obligations, covenants, representations or warranties or indemnities occurring, made or required to be performed after the Acquisition Date and any duties and obligations and terms, covenants and conditions assumed by such Successor Licensor pursuant to clause (c) above with respect to the remaining term of the License Agreement).

3. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute a single instrument.
