ARTICLE I
CREDIT TERMS
SECTION 1.1. LINE OF CREDIT.
(a) Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up
to and including January 31, 2007, not to exceed at any time the aggregate
principal amount of Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,500,000.00)
("Line of Credit"), the proceeds of which shall be used for working capital.
Borrower's obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be
evidenced by a promissory note (as amended, restated or modified from time to
time, the "Line of Credit Note"), all terms of which are incorporated herein by
this reference.
(b) Limitation on Borrowings. Outstanding borrowings under the Line
of Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth above, shall not at
any time exceed an aggregate of seventy percent (70%) of Borrower's eligible
accounts receivable plus $2,750,000.00 of cash collateral (the "Borrowing
Base"). All of the foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon receipt and review
of all collateral reports required hereunder and such
other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time
require. Borrower acknowledges that said borrowing base was established by Bank
with the understanding that, among other items, the aggregate of all returns,
rebates, discounts, credits and allowances for the immediately preceding three
(3) months at all times shall be less than five percent (5%) of Borrower's gross
sales for said period. If such dilution of Borrower's accounts for the
immediately preceding three (3) months at any time exceeds five percent (5%) of
Borrower's gross sales for said period, or if there at any time exists any other
matters, events, conditions or contingencies which Bank reasonably believes may
affect payment of any portion of Borrower's accounts, Bank, in its sole
discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against eligible accounts
receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect such additional dilution
and/or establish additional reserves against Borrower's eligible accounts
receivable.
As used herein, "eligible accounts receivable" shall consist solely of
trade accounts created in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, upon which
Borrower's right to receive payment is absolute and not contingent upon the
fulfillment of any condition whatsoever, and in which Bank has a perfected
security interest of first priority, and shall not include:
(i) any account which is more than ninety (90) days past due;
(ii) that portion of any account for which there exists any
right of setoff, defense or discount (except regular discounts
allowed in the ordinary course of business to promote prompt
payment) or for which any defense or counterclaim has been asserted;
(iii) any account which represents an obligation of any state
or municipal government or of the United States government or any
political subdivision thereof (except accounts which represent
obligations of the United States government and for which the
assignment provisions of the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, as
amended or recodified from time to time, have been complied with to
Bank's satisfaction);
(iv) any account which represents an obligation of an account
debtor located in a country other than the United States or any of
the following Canadian provinces: Alberta, British Columbia,
Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan and the Yukon Territory, except to
the extent any such account, in Bank's determination, is supported
by a letter of credit or insured under a policy of foreign credit
insurance, in each case in form, substance and issued by a party
acceptable to Bank;
(v) any account which arises from the sale or lease to or
performance of services for, or represents an obligation of, an
employee, affiliate, partner, member, parent or subsidiary of
Borrower;
(vi) that portion of any account which represents interim or
progress xxxxxxxx or retention rights on the part of the account
debtor;
-2-
(vii) any account which represents an obligation of any
account debtor when twenty percent (20%) or more of Borrower's
accounts from such account debtor are not eligible pursuant to (i)
above;
(viii) that portion of any account from an account debtor
which represents the amount by which Borrower's total accounts from
said account debtor exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of Borrower's
total accounts;
(ix) any account deemed ineligible by Bank when Bank, in its
sole discretion, deems the creditworthiness or financial condition
of the account debtor, or the industry in which the account debtor
is engaged, to be unsatisfactory.
(c) Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of
Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause
an affiliate to issue Commercial/Standby letters of credit for the account of
Borrower (each, a "Letter of Credit" and collectively, "Letters of Credit");
provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters
of Credit shall not at any time exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00). The
form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by
Bank, in its sole discretion. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date
subsequent to the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all
Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be
available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to
the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreement,
applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the
issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an
advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances;
provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available,
for any reason, at the time any draft is paid, then Borrower shall immediately
pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date
such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the
rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such event
Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account
maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing.
(d) Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during
the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding
borrowings without penalty or premium (other than costs incurred in terminating
any LIBOR tranche prior to the end of the applicable LIBOR period), and
reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained
herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total
outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed the
maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above.
SECTION 1.2. TERM LOAN.
(a) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make a loan to Borrower in the principal amount
of Eight Million Dollars ($8,00,000.00) ("Term Loan"), the proceeds of which
shall be used for the long-term financing of certain real property located at
the headquarters of the Borrower. Borrower's obligation to
-3-
repay the Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note (as amended,
restated or modified from time to time, the "Term Note"), all terms of which are
incorporated herein by this reference. Bank's commitment to grant the Term Loan
shall terminate on June 3, 2004.
(b) Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may prepay principal on the Term
Loan solely in accordance with the provisions of the Term Note.
SECTION 1.3. INTEREST/FEES.
(a) Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each credit
subject hereto shall bear interest, and the amount of each drawing paid under
any Letter of Credit shall bear interest from the date such drawing is paid to
the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest set
forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document executed in
connection therewith.
(b) Computation and Payment. Interest shall be computed on the basis
of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed, unless such calculation would result in
a usurious rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a
365/366-day year, as the case may be, actual days elapsed. Interest shall be
payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other
instrument or document required hereby.

with respect to any Letter of Credit (including without limitation, the

accordance with Bank's standard fees and charges then in effect for such
activity.
SECTION 1.4. COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Borrower authorizes Bank to collect

now owned or hereafter acquired, except (a) security interests and liens held by

and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal
representatives, successors and assigns of the parties; provided however, that
Borrower may not assign or transfer its interest hereunder without Bank's prior

grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank's rights
and benefits under each of the Loan Documents. In connection therewith, Bank may

be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action

this Agreement and each other of the Loan Documents.
SECTION 7.8. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this

-15-
SECTION 7.10. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.
SECTION 7.11. SAVINGS CLAUSE. It is the intention of the parties to comply
strictly with applicable usury laws. Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary in the Loan Documents, in no event shall any Loan Documents
require the payment or permit the payment, taking, reserving, receiving,
collection or charging of any sums constituting interest under applicable laws
that exceed the maximum amount permitted by such laws, as the same may be
amended or modified from time to time (the "Maximum Rate"). If any such excess
interest is called for, contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received in
connection with any Loan Documents, or in any communication by Bank or any other
person to Borrower or any other person, or in the event that all or part of the
principal or interest hereof or thereof shall be prepaid or accelerated, so that
under any of such circumstances or under any other circumstance whatsoever the
amount of interest contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received on the
amount of principal actually outstanding from time to time under the Loan
Documents shall exceed the Maximum Rate, then in such event it is agreed that:
(a) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control; (b) neither
Borrower nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment
of any Loan Documents shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to
the extent it is in excess of the Maximum Rate; (c) any such excess interest
which is or has been received by Bank, notwithstanding this paragraph, shall be
credited against the then unpaid principal balance hereof or thereof, or if any
of the Loan Documents has been or would be paid in full by such credit, refunded
to Borrower; and (d) the provisions of each of the Loan Documents, and any other
communication to Borrower, shall immediately be deemed reformed and such excess
interest reduced, without the necessity of executing any other document, to the
Maximum Rate. The right to accelerate the maturity of the Loan Documents does
not include the right to accelerate, collect or charge unearned interest, but
only such interest that has otherwise accrued as of the date of acceleration.
Without limiting the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received in connection with any of
the Loan Documents which are made for the purpose of determining whether such
rate exceeds the Maximum Rate shall be made to the extent permitted by
applicable laws by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading during the
period of the full term of such Loan Documents, including all prior and
subsequent renewals and extensions hereof or thereof, all interest at any time
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by Bank. The terms of this
paragraph shall be deemed to be incorporated into each of the other Loan
Documents.
To the extent that either Chapter 303 or 306, or both of the Texas Finance
Code apply in determining the Maximum Rate, Bank hereby elects to determine the
applicable rate ceiling by using the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect,
subject to Bank's right subsequently to change such method in accordance with
applicable law, as the same may be amended or modified from time to time.
SECTION 7.12. RIGHT OF SETOFF; DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. Upon and after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower hereby authorizes Bank, at any
time and from time to time, without notice, which is hereby expressly waived by
each Borrower, and whether or not Bank shall have declared any credit subject
hereto to be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, to set off
against, and to appropriate and apply to the payment of, Borrower's
-16-
obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents (whether matured or
unmatured, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated), any and all amounts
owing by Bank to Borrower (whether payable in U.S. dollars or any other
currency, whether matured or unmatured, and in the case of deposits, whether
general or special (except trust and escrow accounts), time or demand and
however evidenced), and (b) pending any such action, to the extent necessary, to
hold such amounts as collateral to secure such obligations and liabilities and
to return as unpaid for insufficient funds any and all checks and other items
drawn against any deposits so held as Bank, in its sole discretion, may elect.
Borrower hereby grants to Bank a security interest in all deposits and accounts
maintained with Bank and with any other financial institution to secure the
payment of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Bank under the Loan
Documents.
SECTION 7.13. BUSINESS PURPOSE. Borrower represents and warrants that each
credit subject hereto is for a business, commercial, investment, agricultural or
other similar purpose and not primarily for a personal, family or household use.
SECTION 7.14. ARBITRATION.
(a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party,
to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between
or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys,
and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise arising out of or
relating to in any way (i) the loan and related Loan Documents which are the
subject of this Agreement and its negotiation, execution, collateralization,
administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation,
inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional
credit.
(b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in
a location in Texas selected by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA");
(ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States
Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the
documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other
administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the
AAA's commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim
is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and
costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the
AAA's optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial
dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex
commercial disputes to be referred to, as applicable, as the "Rules"). If there
is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and
procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to
submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs
and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any
dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party
that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. Section 91 or
any similar applicable state law.
(c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure.
The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i)
foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help
remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or
repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as
replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before
during or after the
-17-
pendency or any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a
waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to
arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of
the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.
(d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding
in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a
single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an
award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in
controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel
of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively
participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral
attorney licensed in the State of Texas with a minimum of ten years experience
in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be
arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitrable
and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In
any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with
a hearing at the arbitrator's discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are
similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for
summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance
with the substantive law of Texas and may grant any remedy or relief that a
court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such
ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator
shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose
sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the
same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the
Texas Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a
provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of
any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.
(e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding discovery will be
permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited
to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be
completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date and within 180 days of
the filing of the dispute with the AAA. Any requests for an extension of the
discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final
determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is
essential for the party's presentation and that no alternative means for
obtaining information is available.
(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. The resolution of any
dispute arising pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by a
separate arbitration proceeding and such dispute shall not be consolidated with
other disputes or included in any class proceeding.
(g) Payment of Arbitration Costs and Fees. The arbitrator shall
award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.
(h) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the
arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any
arbitration proceeding
-18-
within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or
other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or
results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in
the ordinary course of its business, by applicable law or regulation. If more
than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies
to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan
Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration
provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan
Documents or any relationship between the parties.
SECTION 7.15. RATIFICATION. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the terms and provisions of the Existing Security Documents are ratified and
confirmed and shall continue in full force and effect and shall secure the
indebtedness and obligations owed by Borrower to Bank pursuant to this
Agreement. Borrower and Bank further agree that the Existing Security Documents
shall continue to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with
their respective terms. All references to the Credit Agreement therein shall
mean references to this Agreement.
SECTION 7.16. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. As provided in Section 1.5, in its
sole and absolute discretion, Borrower may, at anytime that no outstanding
indebtedness exists under the Line of Credit or Term Loan or no other
obligations are otherwise owed by Borrower to Bank, in a written notice
delivered to Bank, elect to terminate this Agreement. Within 10 days of receipt
by Bank of such notice, if no obligations are then owing to Bank, this
Agreement, the Deed of Trust and all Existing Security Documents and other
agreements executed in connection herewith (the "Loan Documents') shall
thereupon be terminated and the parties thereto released from all prospective
obligations thereunder. At the request and expense of Borrower, Bank shall
prepare and execute all necessary instruments in form satisfactory to Bank to
reflect and effect such termination of the Loan Documents. Bank agrees that
there is no termination fee.
NOTICE: THIS DOCUMENT AND ALL OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THE INDEBTEDNESS
CONSTITUTE A WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT WHICH REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR
SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE INDEBTEDNESS.
