Patent and Trademark Security Agreement [Amendment No. 1] - RSI Systems Inc. and Norwest Bank Minnesota NA
FIRST AMENDMENT TO PATENT AND TRADEMARK SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Amendment, dated as of September 3, 1999, is made by and between
RSI SYSTEMS, INC., a Minnesota corporation (the "Debtor"), and NORWEST BANK
MINNESOTA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association whose address
and principal place of business is Norwest Center, Sixth Street and Marquette
Avenue, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55479-0085 (the "Secured Party").
Recitals
The Debtor and the Secured Party have entered into an Amended and
Restated Credit and Security Agreement dated April 16, 1998, as amended by a
First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement dated as
of June 22, 1998 and by a Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit and
Security Agreement dated as of June 14, 1999 (as amended the "Credit
Agreement").
The Debtor and the Secured Party have also entered into a Patent and
Trademark Security Agreement dated as of June 26, 1997 (the "Patent Agreement").
The Secured Party required the Debtor to execute and deliver the Patent
Agreement to the Secured Party as a condition of the financial accommodations
made by the Secured Party in favor of the Debtor under the Credit Agreement.
Capitalized terms used in these recitals have the meanings given to them in the
Credit Agreement and Patent Agreement, as applicable, unless otherwise
specified.
The Secured Party has requested that the Patent Agreement be amended
to properly reflect the inclusion of the peripheral video conferencing system
technology in Mediapro (the " Mediapro Patent") as a "Patent" arising or
acquired after the date of the Patent Agreement and therefore subject to the
Secured Party's security interest in the Debtor's Patents and Trademarks as
provided under the Patent Agreement "Definitions." The Debtor is willing to
execute this First Amendment to so include the " Mediapro Patent."
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants and agreements herein contained, it is agreed as follows:
1. DEFINED TERMS. Capitalized terms used in this First Amendment which
are used in the Credit Agreement and Patent Agreement, as applicable, shall have
the same meanings as defined therein, unless otherwise defined herein.
2. EXHIBIT A-1 TO PATENT AGREEMENT. Exhibit A-1, attached hereto, is
added as Exhibit A-1 to the Patent Agreement and shall operate to amend and
become a part of Exhibit A to the Patent Agreement and to include the Mediapro
Patent in Exhibit A under the heading "UNITED STATES ISSUED PATENTS" therein.

3. NO OTHER CHANGES. Except as explicitly amended by this First
Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Patent Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect and shall apply as set forth therein.
4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. This First Amendment shall be effective when
the Secured Party shall have received an executed original hereof.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Debtor hereby represents and

except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely
