Each Equipment Loan 4 Advance shall not exceed 100% of the invoice price of Equipment approved by Lender from time to time, and shall be in an amount of at least $50,000. The Equipment Borrower submitted for financing under this Section shall be purchased no earlier than 90 days prior to the date of this Business Financing Modification Agreement. On the last day of each month beginning with the month in which the initial Equipment Loan 4 Advance is made, Borrower shall pay Lender all accrued Finance Charges on all outstanding Equipment Loan 4 Advances during such month. The principal amount of all Equipment Loan 4 Advances outstanding on October 5, 2007 shall be repaid in thirty (30) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued Finance Charges, beginning on October 31, 2007 and continuing on the last day of each month thereafter until the earlier of the Equipment Loan 4 Maturity Date, or the date on which all Equipment Loan 4 Advances and all accrued Finance Charges are paid in full.

3. CONSISTENT CHANGES. The Existing Documents are each hereby amended wherever necessary to reflect the changes described above.
4. PAYMENT OF EQUIPMENT LOAN 4 FACILITY FEE. Borrower shall pay Lender the Equipment Loan 4 Facility Fee as defined hereof upon execution of this Business Financing Modification Agreement, plus all out-of-pocket expenses.
5. NO DEFENSES OF BORROWER/GENERAL RELEASE. Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has no defenses against the obligations to pay any amounts under the Indebtedness. Each of Borrower and Guarantor (each, a "Releasing Party") acknowledges that Lender would not enter into this Business Financing Modification Agreement without Releasing Party's assurance that it has no claims against Lender or any of Lender's officers, directors, employees or agents. Except for the obligations arising hereafter under this Business Financing Modification Agreement, each Releasing Party releases Lender, and each of Lender's and entity's officers, directors and employees from any known or unknown claims that Releasing Party now has against Lender of any nature, including any claims that Releasing Party, its successors, counsel, and advisors may in the future discover they would have now

had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but not limited to any claims arising out of or related to the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. Releasing Party waives the provisions of California Civil Code section 1542, which states:
"A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
The provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon each Releasing Party and its shareholders, agents, employees, assigns and successors in interest. The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest. The provisions of this section shall survive payment in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Business Financing Modification Agreement and the Agreement, and/or Lender's actions to exercise any remedy available under the Agreement or otherwise.
6. CONTINUING VALIDITY. Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the existing Indebtedness, Lender is relying upon Borrower's representations, warranties, and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Documents. Except as expressly modified pursuant to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Lender's agreement to modifications to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Business Financing Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Lender to make any future modifications to the Indebtedness. Nothing in this Business Financing Modification Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of the Indebtedness. It is the intention of Lender and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of Existing Documents, unless the party is expressly released by Lender in writing. No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released by virtue of this Business Financing Modification Agreement. The terms of this paragraph apply not only to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, but also to any subsequent Business Financing modification agreements.
7. CONDITIONS. The effectiveness of this Business Financing Modification Agreement is conditioned upon payment of the Equipment Loan 4 Facility Fee.
8. COUNTERSIGNATURE. This Business Financing Modification Agreement shall become effective only when executed by Lender and Borrower.
