RES. 2012-03-03 EDC Waiver of rights -Image Vision Labs PAGE t OF 1 03-29-12 IMAGE VISIONLABS, INC. 404 North Powell Parkway City of Anna, TX 75409 March 08, 2012 Jessica Perkins Chief Administrative Officer Anna Economic Development Corporation PO Box 776 Anna, TX 75409 Re: Waiver of Triggering Event Dear Ms. Perkins: Reference is made to the Economic Development Incentive Grant for Capital Investment Performance Agreement ("Performance Agreement') between Image Vision Labs, Inc. ("Company") and Anna Economic Development Corporation ("AEDC'), executed on or about July 15, 2010. The Company is in the process of closing an equity financing (the "Series B Preferred Stock Financing") in which Series B Preferred Stock of the Company is to be purchased by existing investor Walden Venture Capital VII, LP ("Walden"), new investor Javelin Venture Partners, and others (collectively, the "Investors"), under the terms of a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement') to be entered into by the Company and the Investors on or before the I' day of July, 2012. The terms of the Performance Agreement provide that, upon the occurrence of a "Triggering Event', AEDC would have certain rights, including but not limited to the right to demand and receive repayment from the Company of the total amount of grant proceeds, with interest, previously received by the Company under the Performance Agreement. A Triggering Event is defined in the Performance Agreement to include any sale of the Company's capital stock that results in or causes a new "Controlling Shareholder" of the Company (as such term is defined term in the Performance Agreement). The term "Controlling Shareholder" is defined to include a shareholder of the Company who owns more shares than any other shareholder. Prior to the closing of the Series B Preferred Stock Financing (the "Closing"), the President and CEO of the Company, Steven W. White, owns more shares of the Company than any other shareholder, and Walden owns more shares of the Company than anyone other than Mr. White. Following the Closing, the purchase of Series B Preferred Stock by Walden would result in Walden owning more shares of the Company than any other shareholder, including Mr. White. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, it will be a condition to the Closing that AEDC waive its rights to demand or receive repayment from the Company of grant proceeds with respect to any Triggering Event otherwise resulting from the Series B Preferred Stock Financing. AEDC hereby consents and agrees to the waiver of its right and option to treat the Series B Preferred Stock Financing, including the entry into the Purchase Agreement, the sale and issuance of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, and the occurrence of a new Controlling Shareholder resulting upon the consummation of such sale (collectively, the "Series B Financing Events"), as a Triggering Event under the Anna Economic Development Corporation Re: Waiver of Triggering Event March , 2012 Page 2 Performance Agreement, and accordingly consents and agrees to the waiver of its right and option that would otherwise result from the Series B Financing Events, to demand or receive repayment from the Company of grant proceeds. AEDC specifically preserves the right to receive written notice of the Series B Financing Events to the extent required under the Performance Agreement. IVL agrees to provide such written notice to AFDC to the extent so required. AEDC does not intend to waive and does not waive any right(s), including the kinds of rights waived above, that it may now or in the future possess with respect to any Triggering Event other than the Series B Financing Events. 11' AEDC is in agreement with the terms set forth in this letter, please sign this letter where provided below. As always, we appreciate AEDC's and the City of Anna's support of the Company. Sincerely IMAGE VISION LABS, INC. By: Steven W. W.
