proceeds of the foregoing, and all guaranties of and security for the foregoing;
and all books and records relating to any of the foregoing. Silicon's security
interest in any present or future technology (including patents, trade secrets,
and other technology) shall be subject to any licenses or rights now or in the
future granted by the Borrower to any third parties in the ordinary course of
Borrower's business; provided that if the Borrower proposes to sell, license or
grant any other rights with respect to any technology in a transaction that, in
substance, conveys a major part of the economic value of that technology,
Silicon shall first be requested to release its security interest in the same,
and Silicon may withhold such release in its discretion.
3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.
The Borrower represents and warrants to Silicon as follows, and the Borrower
covenants that the following representations will continue to be true, and that
the Borrower will comply with all of the following covenants:
3.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY. The Borrower, if a corporation, is and
will continue to be, duly authorized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. The Borrower is and
will continue to be qualified and licensed to do business in all jurisdictions
in which any failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the
Borrower. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this
Agreement, and all other documents contemplated hereby have been duly and
validly authorized, are enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with
their terms, and do not violate any law or any provision of, and are not grounds
for acceleration under, any agreement or instrument which is binding upon the
Borrower.
3.2 NAME; TRADE NAMES AND STYLES. The name of the Borrower set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed on the Schedule hereto are
all prior names of the Borrower and all of Borrower's present and prior trade
names. The Borrower shall give Silicon 15 days' prior written notice before
changing its name or doing business under any other name. The Borrower has
complied, and will in the future comply, with all laws relating to the conduct
of business under a fictitious business name.
3.3 PLACE OF BUSINESS; LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. The address set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is the Borrower's chief executive office. In addition,
the Borrower has places of business and Collateral is located only at the
locations set forth on the Schedule to this Agreement. The Borrower will give
Silicon at least 15 days prior written notice before changing its chief
executive office or locating the Collateral at any other location.
3.4 TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS. The Borrower is now, and will at all
times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items
of equipment which are leased by the Borrower. The Collateral now is and will
remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests,
encumbrances and adverse claims, except for the following ("Permitted Liens"):
(i) purchase money security interests in specific items of equipment; (ii)
leases of specific items of equipment; (iii) liens for taxes not yet payable;
(iv) additional security interests and liens consented to in writing by Silicon
in its reasonable discretion, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
and (v) security interests being terminated substantially concurrently with this
Agreement. Silicon will have the right to require, as a condition to its consent
under subparagraph (iv) above, that the holder of the additional security
interest or lien sign an intercreditor agreement on Silicon's then standard
form, acknowledge that the security interest is subordinate to the security
interest in favor of Silicon, and agree not to take any action to enforce its
subordinate security interest so long as any Obligations remain outstanding, and
that the Borrower agree that any uncured default in any obligation secured by
the subordinate security interest shall also constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a perfected
and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the
Permitted Liens, and the Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the
Collateral against all claims of others. None of the Collateral now is or will
be affixed to any real property in such a manner, or with such intent, as to
become a fixture.
3.5 MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL. The Borrower will maintain the Collateral in
good working condition, and the Borrower will not use the Collateral for any
unlawful purpose. The Borrower will immediately advise Silicon in writing of any
material loss or damage to the Collateral.
3.6 BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Borrower has maintained and will maintain at the
Borrower's Address complete and accurate books and records, comprising an
accounting system in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
3.7 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND STATEMENTS. All financial statements now or in the
future delivered to Silicon have been, and will be, prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and now and in the future will
completely and accurately reflect the financial condition of the Borrower, at
the times and for the periods therein stated. Since the last date covered by any
such statement, there has been no material adverse change in the financial
condition or business of the Borrower. The Borrower is now and will continue to
be solvent. The Borrower will provide Silicon: (i) within 30 days after the end
of each month, a monthly financial statement prepared by the Borrower, and a
Compliance Certificate in such form as Silicon shall reasonably specify, signed
by the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower, certifying that as of the end of
such month the Borrower was in full compliance with all of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, and setting forth calculations showing compliance
with the financial covenants set forth on the Schedule and such other
information as Silicon shall reasonably request; *
*(II) WITHIN THE EARLIER OF 45 DAYS FOLLOWING THE END OF EACH FISCAL

FILED OR IS REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION,
SUCH 10-Q REPORT; AND (III) WITHIN THE EARLIER OF 90 DAYS FOLLOWING THE END OF
THE BORROWER'S FISCAL YEAR END OR 5 DAYS AFTER THE EARLIER OF THE DATE THE

FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, SUCH 10-K REPORT, AND
COMPLETE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CERTIFIED BY INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTANTS ACCEPTABLE TO SILICON.
3.8 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS; PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS. The Borrower has timely
filed, and will timely file, all tax returns and reports required by foreign,
federal, state and local law, and the Borrower has timely paid, and will timely
pay, all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and
contributions now or in the future owed by the Borrower. The Borrower may,
however, defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that the Borrower (i) in
good faith contests the Borrower's obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate
proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (ii) notifies
Silicon in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the
proceedings, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to keep the
contested taxes from becoming a lien upon any of the Collateral. The Borrower is
unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of the Borrower's prior
tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by the
Borrower. The Borrower has paid, and shall continue to pay all amounts necessary
to fund all present and future pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation
plans in accordance with their terms, and the Borrower has not and will not
withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete termination of, or
permit the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which
could result in any liability of the Borrower, including, without limitation,
any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or
any other governmental agency.
3.9 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. The Borrower has complied, and will comply, in all
material respects, with all provisions of all foreign, federal, state and local
laws and regulations relating to the Borrower, including, but not limited to,
those relating to the Borrower's ownership of real or personal property, conduct
and licensing of the Borrower's business, and environmental matters.
3.10 LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, there is no claim, suit,
litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or (to best of the Borrower's
knowledge) threatened by or against or affecting the Borrower in any court or
before any governmental agency (or any basis therefor known to the Borrower)
which may result, either separately or in the aggregate, in any material adverse
change in the financial condition or business of the Borrower, or in any
material impairment in the ability of the Borrower to carry on its business in
substantially the same manner as it is now being conducted. The Borrower will
promptly inform Silicon in writing of any claim, proceeding, litigation or
investigation in the future threatened or instituted by or against the Borrower
involving amounts in excess of $250,000.
3.11 USE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds of all Loans shall be used solely for
lawful business purposes.
4. ADDITIONAL DUTIES OF THE BORROWER.
4.1 FINANCIAL AND OTHER COVENANTS. The Borrower shall at all times comply with
the financial and other covenants set forth in the Schedule to this Agreement.
4.2 OVERADVANCE; PROCEEDS OF ACCOUNTS. If for any reason the total of all
outstanding Loans and all other Obligations exceeds the Credit Limit, without
limiting Silicon's other remedies, and whether or not Silicon declares an Event
of Default, Borrower shall remit to Silicon all checks and other proceeds of
Borrower's accounts and general intangibles, in the same form as received by
Borrower, within one day after Borrower's receipt of the same, to be applied to
the Obligations in such order as Silicon shall determine in its discretion.
4.3 INSURANCE. The Borrower shall, at all times insure all of the tangible
personal property Collateral and carry such other business insurance, with
insurers reasonably acceptable to Silicon, in such form and amounts as Silicon
may reasonably require. All such insurance policies shall name Silicon as an
additional loss payee, and shall contain a lenders loss payee endorsement in
form reasonably acceptable to Silicon. Upon receipt of the proceeds of any such
insurance, Silicon shall apply such proceeds in reduction of the Obligations as
Silicon shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, except that,
provided no Event of Default has occurred, Silicon shall release to the Borrower
insurance proceeds with respect to equipment totaling less than $100,000, which
shall be utilized by the Borrower for the replacement of the equipment with
respect to which the insurance proceeds were paid. Silicon may require
reasonable assurance that the insurance proceeds so released will be so used. If
the Borrower fails to provide or pay for any insurance, Silicon may, but is not
obligated to, obtain the same at the Borrower's expense. The Borrower shall
promptly deliver to Silicon copies of all reports made to insurance companies.

respect to the Borrower (including without limitation budgets, sales
projections, operating plans and other financial documentation), as Silicon
shall from time to time reasonably specify.
4.5 ACCESS TO COLLATERAL, BOOKS AND RECORDS. At all reasonable times, and upon
one business day notice, Silicon, or its agents, shall have the right to inspect
the Collateral, and the right to audit and copy the Borrower's accounting books
and records and Borrower's books and records relating to the Collateral. Silicon
shall take reasonable steps to keep confidential all information obtained in any
such inspection or audit, but Silicon shall have the right to disclose any such
information to its auditors, regulatory agencies, and attorneys, and pursuant to
any subpoena or other legal process. The foregoing audits shall be at Silicon's
expense, except that the Borrower shall reimburse Silicon for its reasonable out
of pocket costs for semi-annual accounts receivable audits by third parties
retained by Silicon, and Silicon may debit Borrower's deposit accounts with
Silicon for the cost of such semi-annual accounts receivable audits (in which
event Silicon shall send notification thereof to the Borrower). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, after the occurrence of an Event of Default all audits shall be
at the Borrower's expense.
4.6 NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Except as may be permitted in the Schedule hereto, the
Borrower shall not, without Silicon's prior written consent, do any of the
following: (i) merge or consolidate with another corporation, except that the
Borrower may merge or consolidate with another corporation if the Borrower is
the surviving corporation in the merger and the aggregate value of the assets
acquired in the merger do not exceed 25% of Borrower's Tangible Net Worth (as
defined in the Schedule) as of the end of the
-3-

month prior to the effective date of the merger, and the assets of the
corporation acquired in the merger are not subject to any liens or encumbrances,
except Permitted Liens; (ii) acquire any assets outside the ordinary course of
business for an aggregate purchase price exceeding 25% of Borrower's Tangible

assets; (vi) incur any debts, outside the ordinary course of business, which
would have a material, adverse effect on the Borrower or on the prospect of
repayment of the Obligations; (vii) guarantee or otherwise become liable with
respect to the obligations of another party or entity; (viii) pay or declare any
dividends on the Borrower's stock (except for dividends payable solely in stock
of the Borrower); (ix) redeem, retire, purchase or otherwise acquire, directly
or indirectly, any of the Borrower's stock; (x) make any change in the
Borrower's capital structure which has a material adverse effect on the Borrower
or on the prospect of repayment of the Obligations; or (xi) dissolve or elect to
dissolve. Transactions permitted by the foregoing provisions of this Section are
only permitted if no Event of Default and no event which (with notice or passage
of time or both) would constitute an Event of Default would occur as a result of
such transaction.
4.7 LITIGATION COOPERATION. Should any third-party suit or proceeding be
instituted by or against Silicon with respect to any Collateral or in any manner
relating to the Borrower, the Borrower shall, without expense to Silicon, make
available the Borrower and its officers, employees and agents and the Borrower's
books and records to the extent that Silicon may deem them reasonably necessary
in order to prosecute or defend any such suit or proceeding.
4.8 VERIFICATION. Silicon may, from time to time, following prior notification
to Borrower, verify directly with the respective account debtors the validity,
amount and other matters relating to the Borrower's accounts, by means of mail,
telephone or otherwise, either in the name of the Borrower or Silicon or such
other name as Silicon may reasonably choose, provided that no prior notification
to Borrower shall be required following an Event of Default.
4.9 EXECUTE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION. The Borrower agrees, at its expense, on
request by Silicon, to execute all documents in form satisfactory to Silicon, as
Silicon, may deem reasonably necessary or useful in order to perfect and
maintain Silicon's perfected security interest in the Collateral, and in order
to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
5. TERM.
5.1 MATURITY DATE. This Agreement shall continue in effect until the maturity
date set forth on the Schedule hereto (the "Maturity Date").
5.2 EARLY TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated, without penalty,
prior to the Maturity Date as follows: (i) by the Borrower, effective three
business days after written notice of termination is given to Silicon; or (ii)
by Silicon at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without
notice, effective immediately.
5.3 PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. On the Maturity Date or on any earlier effective
date of termination, the Borrower shall pay and perform in full all Obligations,
whether evidenced by installment notes or otherwise, and whether or not all or
any part of such Obligations are otherwise then due and payable. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if on the Maturity Date, or on any
earlier effective date of termination, there are any outstanding letters of
credit issued by Silicon or issued by another institution based upon an
application, guarantee, indemnity or similar agreement on the part of Silicon,
then on such date Borrower shall provide to Silicon cash collateral in an amount
equal to the face amount of all such letters of credit plus all interest, fees
and cost due or to become due in connection therewith, to secure all of the
Obligations relating to said letters of credit, pursuant to Silicon's then
standard form cash pledge agreement. Notwithstanding any termination of this
Agreement, all of Silicon's security interests in all of the Collateral and all
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full; provided
that, without limiting the fact that Loans are subject to the reasonable
discretion of Silicon, Silicon may, in its sole discretion, refuse to make any
further Loans after termination. No termination shall in any way affect or
impair any right or remedy of Silicon, nor shall any such termination relieve
the Borrower of any Obligation to Silicon, until all of the Obligations have
been paid and performed in full. Upon payment and performance in full of all the
Obligations, Silicon shall promptly deliver to the Borrower termination
statements, requests for reconveyances and such other documents as may be
required to fully terminate any of Silicon's security interests.

constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement, and the Borrower shall
give Silicon immediate written notice thereof: (a) Any warranty, representation,
statement, report or certificate made or delivered to Silicon by the Borrower or

be untrue or misleading in any material respect; or (b) the Borrower shall fail
to pay when due any Loan or any interest thereon or any other monetary
Obligation; or (c) the total Loans and other Obligations outstanding at any time
exceed the Credit Limit; or (d) the Borrower shall fail to comply with any of
the financial covenants set forth in the Schedule or shall fail to perform any

of the Collateral which is not cured within 10 days after the occurrence of the
same; or (g) Dissolution, termination of existence, insolvency or business

the future in effect; or (h) the commencement of any proceeding against the
Borrower or any guarantor of any of the Obligations under any reorganization,

liability upon, any guaranty of the Obligations or any attempt to do any of the
foregoing; or commencement of proceedings by any guarantor of any of the

certificate of deposit, securities or other property or asset of any kind
pledged by any third party to secure any or all of the Obligations, or any
attempt to do any of the foregoing; or commencement of proceedings by or against
any such third party under any bankruptcy or insolvency law; or (k) the Borrower
makes any payment on account of any indebtedness or obligation which has been
subordinated to the Obligations other than as permitted in the applicable
subordination agreement or if any person who has subordinated such indebtedness
or obligations terminates or in any way limits his subordination agreement; or
(l) there shall be a change in the record or beneficial ownership of an
aggregate of more than 20% of the outstanding shares of stock of the Borrower,
in one or more transactions, compared to the ownership of outstanding shares of
stock of the Borrower in effect on the date hereof, without the prior written
consent of Silicon; or (m) the Borrower shall generally not pay its debts as
they become due; or the Borrower shall conceal, remove or transfer any part of
its property, with intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors, or make or
suffer any transfer of any of its property which may be fraudulent under any
bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance or similar law. Silicon may cease making any
Loans hereunder during any of the above cure periods, and thereafter if an Event
of Default has occurred.
6.2 REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and at any time
thereafter, Silicon, at its option, and without notice or demand of any kind
(all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower), may do any one or
more of the following: (a) Cease making Loans or otherwise extending credit to
the Borrower under this Agreement or any other document or agreement; (b)
Accelerate and declare all or any part of the Obligations to be immediately due,
payable, and performable, notwithstanding any deferred or installment payments
allowed by any instrument evidencing or relating to any Obligation; (c) Take
possession of any or all of the Collateral wherever it may be found, and for
that purpose the Borrower hereby authorizes Silicon without judicial process to
enter onto any of the Borrower's premises without interference to search for,
take possession of, keep, store, or remove any of the Collateral, and remain on
the premises or cause a custodian to remain on the premises in exclusive control
thereof without charge for so long as Silicon deems it reasonably necessary in
order to complete the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any
other agreement; provided, however, that should Silicon seek to take possession
of any or all of the Collateral by Court process, the Borrower hereby
irrevocably waives: (i) any bond and any surety or security relating thereto
required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as an incident to such
possession; (ii) any demand for possession prior to the commencement of any suit
or action to recover possession thereof; and (iii) any requirement that Silicon
retain possession of and not dispose of any such Collateral until after trial or
final judgment; (d) Require the Borrower to assemble any or all of the
Collateral and make it available to Silicon at places designated by Silicon
which are reasonably convenient to Silicon and the Borrower, and to remove the
Collateral to such locations as Silicon may deem advisable; (e) Require Borrower
to deliver to Silicon, in kind, all checks and other payments received with
respect to all accounts and general intangibles, together with any necessary
indorsements, within one day after the date received by the Borrower; (f)

disposition thereof and, for such purpose and for the purpose of removal,
Silicon shall have the right to use the Borrower's premises, vehicles, hoists,

or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral in its condition at the time
Silicon obtains possession of it or after further manufacturing, processing or
repair, at any one or more public and/or private sales, in lots or in bulk, for

from time to time without notice other than oral announcement at the time
scheduled for sale. Silicon shall have the right to conduct such disposition on
the Borrower's premises without charge, for such time or times as Silicon deems
reasonable, or on Silicon's premises, or elsewhere and the Collateral need not
be located at the place of disposition. Silicon may directly or through any
affiliated company purchase or lease any Collateral at any such public
disposition, and if permissible under applicable law, at any private
disposition. Any sale or other disposition of Collateral shall not relieve the
Borrower of any liability the Borrower may have if any Collateral is defective
as to title or physical condition or otherwise at the time of sale; (h) Demand
payment of, and collect any accounts and general intangibles comprising
Collateral and, in connection therewith, the Borrower irrevocably authorizes
Silicon to endorse or sign the Borrower's name on all collections, receipts,
instruments and other documents, to take possession of and open mail addressed
to the Borrower and remove therefrom payments made with respect to any item of
the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Silicon's sole discretion, to grant
extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle accounts and the like
for less than face value; (i) Offset against any sums in any of Borrower's
general, special or other deposit accounts with Silicon; and (j) Demand and

obligations incurred by Silicon with respect to the foregoing shall be added to
and become part of the Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear
interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the
Obligations. Without limiting any of Silicon's rights and remedies, from and
after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the interest rate applicable to
the Obligations shall be increased by an additional four percent per annum.
6.3 STANDARDS FOR DETERMINING COMMERCIAL REASONABLENESS. The Borrower and
Silicon agree that a sale or other disposition (collectively, "sale") of any
Collateral which complies with the following standards will conclusively be
deemed to be commercially

employ other methods of noticing and selling the Collateral, in its discretion,
if they are commercially reasonable.

limiting Silicon's other rights and remedies, the Borrower grants to Silicon an
irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, authorizing and
permitting Silicon (acting through any of its employees, attorneys or agents) at
any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or without notice to the
Borrower, and at the Borrower's expense, to do any or all of the following, in
the Borrower's name or otherwise: (a) Execute on behalf of the Borrower any
documents that Silicon may, in its sole and absolute discretion, deem advisable
in order to perfect and maintain Silicon's security interest in the Collateral,
or in order to exercise a right of the Borrower or Silicon, or in order to fully
consummate all the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, and all other
present and future agreements; (b) Execute on behalf of the Borrower any
document exercising, transferring or assigning any option to purchase, sell or
otherwise dispose of or to lease (as lessor or lessee) any real or personal
property which is part of Silicon's Collateral or in which Silicon has an
interest; (c) Execute on behalf of the Borrower, any invoices relating to any
account, any draft against any account debtor and any notice to any account
debtor, any proof of claim in bankruptcy, any Notice of Lien, claim of
mechanic's, materialman's or other lien, or assignment or satisfaction of
mechanic's, materialman's or other lien; (d) Take control in any manner of any
cash or non-cash items of payment or proceeds of Collateral; endorse the name of
the Borrower upon any instruments, or documents, evidence of payment or
Collateral that may come into Silicon's possession; (e) Endorse all checks and
other forms of remittances received by Silicon; (f) Pay, contest or settle any
lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest and adverse claim in or to any of
the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to
terminate or discharge the same; (g) Grant extensions of time to pay, compromise
claims and settle accounts and general intangibles for less than face value and
execute all releases and other documents in connection therewith; (h) Pay any
sums required on account of the Borrower's taxes or to secure the release of any
liens therefor, or both; (i) Settle and adjust, and give releases of, any
insurance claim that relates to any of the Collateral and obtain payment

Agreement; and (k) Take any action or pay any sum required of the Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement and any other present or future agreements. Silicon
shall exercise the foregoing powers in a commercially reasonable manner. Any and
all reasonable sums paid and any and all reasonable costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon with respect to
the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, shall be
payable on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest
interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. In no event shall Silicon's
rights under the foregoing power of attorney or any of Silicon's other rights
under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that Silicon is in control of the
business, management or properties of the Borrower.
6.5 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds realized as the result of any sale
of the Collateral shall be applied by Silicon first to the costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon in the exercise
of its rights under this Agreement, second to the interest due upon any of the
Obligations, and third to the principal of the Obligations, in such order as
Silicon shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to the
Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; the Borrower shall remain
liable to Silicon for any deficiency. If, Silicon, in its sole discretion,
directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit
transaction with any purchaser at any sale or other disposition of Collateral,
Silicon shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its sole discretion,
of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of purchase price or
deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Silicon
of the cash therefor.
6.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in
this Agreement, Silicon shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a
secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code and under all other
applicable laws, and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the
future entered into between Silicon and the Borrower, and all of such rights and
remedies are cumulative and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by
Silicon of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an
election, nor bar Silicon from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any
other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Silicon to exercise any rights
or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies
shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been
fully paid and performed.
7. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
7.1 NOTICES. All notices to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be given either personally or by regular first-class mail, or
certified mail return receipt requested, addressed to Silicon or the Borrower at
the addresses shown in the heading to this Agreement, or at any other address
designated in writing by one party to the other party. All notices shall be
deemed to have been given upon delivery in the case of notices personally
delivered to the Borrower or to Silicon, or at the expiration of two business
days following the deposit thereof in the United States mail, with postage
prepaid.
7.2 SEVERABILITY. Should any provision of this Agreement be held by any court
of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such defect shall not
affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and
effect.

____________________________________________________________
7.3 INTEGRATION. This Agreement and such other written agreements, documents
and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith are the final, entire
and complete agreement between the Borrower and Silicon and supersede all prior
and contemporaneous negotiations and oral representations and agreements, all of
which are merged and integrated in this Agreement. There are no oral
understandings, representations or agreements between the parties which are not
set forth in this Agreement or in other written agreements signed by the parties
in connection herewith.
7.4 WAIVERS. The failure of Silicon at any time or times to require the
Borrower to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any
other present or future agreement between the Borrower and Silicon shall not
waive or diminish any right of Silicon later to demand and receive strict
compliance therewith. Any waiver of any default shall not waive or affect any
other default, whether prior or subsequent thereto. None of the provisions of
this Agreement or any other agreement now or in the future executed by the
Borrower and delivered to Silicon shall be deemed to have been waived by any act
or knowledge of Silicon or its agents or employees, but only by a specific
written waiver signed by an officer of Silicon and delivered to the Borrower.
The Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of default or
dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise, settlement,
extension or renewal of any commercial paper, instrument, account, general
intangible, document or guaranty at any time held by Silicon on which the
Borrower is or may in any way be liable, and notice of any action taken by
Silicon, unless expressly required by this Agreement.
7.5 NO LIABILITY FOR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE. Neither Silicon, nor any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other person affiliated
with or representing Silicon shall be liable for any claims, demands, losses or
damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered by the
Borrower or any other party through the ordinary negligence of Silicon, or any
of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other person
affiliated with or representing Silicon.
7.6 AMENDMENT. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may not be waived or
amended, except in a writing executed by the Borrower and a duly authorized
officer of Silicon.
7.7 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance by the Borrower
of each and every obligation under this Agreement.
7.8 ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS. The Borrower shall reimburse Silicon for all
reasonable attorneys' fees and all filing, recording, search, title insurance,
appraisal, audit, and other reasonable costs incurred by Silicon, pursuant to,
or in connection with, or relating to this Agreement (whether or not a lawsuit
is filed), including, but not limited to, any reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs Silicon incurs in order to do the following: prepare and negotiate this
Agreement and the documents relating to this Agreement; obtain legal advice in
connection with this Agreement; enforce, or seek to enforce, any of its rights;
prosecute actions against, or defend actions by, account debtors; commence,
intervene in, or defend any action or proceeding; initiate any complaint to be
relieved of the automatic stay in bankruptcy; file or prosecute any probate
claim, bankruptcy claim, third-party claim, or other claim; examine, audit,
copy, and inspect any of the Collateral or any of the Borrower's books and
records; protect, obtain possession of, lease, dispose of, or otherwise enforce
Silicon's security interest in, the Collateral; and otherwise represent Silicon
in any litigation relating to the Borrower. In satisfying Borrower's obligation
hereunder to reimburse Silicon for attorneys fees, Borrower may, for
convenience, issue checks directly to Silicon's attorneys, Levy, Small & Xxxxxx,
but Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Levy, Small & Xxxxxx is representing
only Silicon and not Borrower in connection with this Agreement. If either
Silicon or the Borrower files any lawsuit against the other predicated on a
breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled
to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys' fees, including (but not limited
to) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the enforcement of,
execution upon or defense of any order, decree, award or judgment. All
attorneys' fees and costs to which Silicon may be entitled pursuant to this
Paragraph shall immediately become part of the Borrower's Obligations, shall be
due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest
rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
7.9 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs,
beneficiaries and representatives of the parties hereto; provided, however, that
the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Silicon, and any prohibited assignment
shall be void. No consent by Silicon to any assignment shall release the
Borrower from its liability for the Obligations.
7.10 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If the Borrower consists of more than one
person, their liability shall be joint and several, and the compromise of any
claim with, or the release of, any Borrower shall not constitute a compromise
with, or a release of, any other Borrower.
7.11 PARAGRAPH HEADINGS; CONSTRUCTION. Paragraph headings are only used in
this Agreement for convenience. The Borrower acknowledges that the headings may
not describe completely the subject matter of the applicable paragraph, and the
headings shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit, define or interpret
any term or provision of this Agreement. This Agreement has been fully reviewed
and negotiated between the parties and no uncertainty or ambiguity in any term
or provision of this Agreement shall be construed strictly against Silicon or
the Borrower under any rule of construction or otherwise.
7.12 MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER AND SILICON EACH HEREBY WAIVE
THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT
OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE
INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN SILICON AND THE BORROWER, OR ANY CONDUCT, ACTS
OR OMISSIONS OF SILICON OR THE BORROWER OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH SILICON OR THE
BORROWER, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE.

$1,500,000 at any one time outstanding; or (ii)
75% of the Net Amount of Borrower's accounts,
which Silicon in its discretion deems eligible
for borrowing. "Net Amount" of an account means
the gross amount of the account, minus all

allowances of any nature granted or claimed.
Without limiting the fact that the
determination of which accounts are eligible

satisfactory to Silicon), accounts owing from
one account debtor to the extent they exceed
25%* of the total eligible accounts
outstanding, accounts owing from an affiliate
of Borrower, and accounts owing from an account
debtor to whom Borrower is or may be liable for
goods purchased from such account debtor or
otherwise. In addition, if more than 50% of the
accounts owing from an account debtor are
outstanding more than 90 days from the invoice
date or are otherwise not eligible accounts,
then all accounts owing from that account
debtor will be deemed ineligible for borrowing.

"Letter of Credit Documentation"). Fees for the
Letters of Credit shall be as provided in the
Letter of Credit Documentation. Letters of
Credit may have a maturity date up to twelve
months beyond the Maturity Date in effect from
time to time, provided that if on the Maturity
Date, or on any earlier effective date of
termination, there are any outstanding letters
of credit issued by Silicon or issued by
another institution based upon an application,
guarantee, indemnity or similar agreement on
the part of Silicon, then on such date Borrower
shall provide to Silicon cash collateral in an
amount equal to the face amount of all such
letters of credit plus all interest, fees and
costs due or to become due in connection
therewith, to secure all of the Obligations
relating to said letters of credit, pursuant to
