Addenda, Annexes and Schedules thereto, as the same may be from time to
time amended, modified, restated or supplemented, and not to any
particular section, subsection or clause contained in this Agreement.
Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term stated in
either the singular or plural shall include the singular and the
plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, feminine or neuter
gender shall include the masculine, the feminine and the neuter.
The term "or" is not exclusive. The term "including" (or any form
1

statutes and related regulations shall include any amendments of same
and any successor statutes and regulations. All references in this
Agreement or in the Schedules, Addenda, Annexes and Exhibits to this

calculation. "Exchange Rate" means, in relation to any amount of

Article 2
LOAN FACILITY.
2.1 Revolving Loans.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the
Ancillary Agreements, Laurus may make revolving loans (the
"Revolving Loans") to Company from time to time during the Term
which, in the aggregate at any time outstanding, will not exceed
the lesser of (x) (I) the Capital Availability Amount minus (II)
such reserves as Laurus may reasonably in its good faith judgment
deem proper and necessary from time to time (the "Reserves") and
(y) an amount equal to (I) the Accounts Availability minus (II)
the Reserves. The amount derived at any time from Section 2.1(a)
(y)(I) minus 2.1(a)(y)(II) shall be referred to as the "Formula
Amount." The Company shall execute and deliver to Laurus on the
Closing Date the Revolving Note and a Minimum Borrowing Note
evidencing the Revolving Loans funded on the Closing Date. From
time to time thereafter, the Company shall execute and deliver to
Laurus immediately prior to the final funding of each additional
US$2,500,000 tranche of Revolving Loans allocated to any Minimum
Borrowing Note issued after the date hereof (calculated on a
cumulative basis for each such tranche) an additional Minimum
Borrowing Note evidencing such tranche, substantially in the form
of the Minimum Borrowing Note delivered by the Company to Laurus on
the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, whenever during the Term the outstanding balance on
the Minimum Borrowing Note shall be less than the Minimum Borrowing
Amount (such amount being referred to herein as the "Transferable
Amount") to the extent that the outstanding balance on the
2
Revolving Note should equal or exceed US$1,000,000, that portion
of the balance of the Revolving Note that exceeds US$1,000,000, but
does not exceed the Transferable Amount, shall be segregated from
the outstanding balance under the Revolving Note and allocated to
and aggregated with the then existing balance of the next unissued
serialized Minimum Borrowing Note (the "Next Unissued Serialized
Note"); provided that such segregated amount shall remain subject
to the terms and conditions of such Revolving Note until a new
serialized Minimum Borrowing Note is issued as set forth below.
The Next Unissued Serialized Note shall remain in book entry form
until the balance thereunder shall equal the Minimum Borrowing
Amount, at which time a new serialized Minimum Borrowing Note in
the face amount equal to the Minimum Borrowing Amount will be
issued and registered as set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement (and the outstanding balance under the Revolving Note
shall at such time be correspondingly reduced in the amount equal
to the Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of the issuance of
such new serialized Minimum Borrowing Note).
(b) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth above, if requested by
the Company, Laurus retains the right to lend to the Company from
time to time such amounts in excess of such limitations as Laurus
may determine in its sole discretion.
(c) The Company acknowledges that the exercise of Laurus' discretionary
rights hereunder may result during the Term in one or more
increases or decreases in the advance percentages used in
determining Accounts Availability and the Company hereby consents
to any such increases or decreases which may limit or restrict
advances requested by the Company.
(d) If any interest, fees, costs or charges payable to Laurus hereunder
are not paid when due, the Company shall thereby be deemed to have
requested, and Laurus is hereby authorized at its discretion to
make and charge to the Company' account, a Loan as of such date in
an amount equal to such unpaid interest, fees, costs or charges.
(e) If the Company at any time fails to perform or observe any of the
covenants contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement,
Laurus may to the extent permissible by state and federal law, but
need not, perform or observe such covenant on behalf and in the
name, place and stead of the Company (or, at Laurus' option, in
Laurus' name) and may, but need not, take any and all other
actions which Laurus may deem necessary to cure or correct such
failure (including the payment of taxes, the satisfaction of
Liens, the performance of obligations owed to Account Debtors,
lessors or other obligors, the procurement and maintenance of
insurance, the execution of assignments, security agreements and
financing statements, and the endorsement of instruments). The
amount of all monies expended and all reasonable costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses)
incurred by Laurus in connection with or as a result of the
performance or observance of such agreements or the taking of
such action by Laurus shall be charged to the Company' account
as a Loan and added to the Obligations. To facilitate Laurus'
performance or observance of such covenants by the Company,
the Company hereby irrevocably appoints Laurus, or Laurus'
delegate, acting alone, as the Company's attorney in fact (which
appointment is coupled with an interest) with the right (but not
the duty) from time to time to create, prepare, complete, execute,
deliver, endorse or file in the name and on behalf of the Company
any and all instruments, documents, assignments, security
agreements, financing statements, applications for insurance and
other agreements and writings required to be obtained, executed,
delivered or endorsed by the Company.
3
(f) Laurus will account to the Company monthly with a written
statement of all Loans and other advances, charges and payments
made pursuant to this Agreement, and such account rendered by
Laurus shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive unless Laurus
is notified by the Company in writing to the contrary within
thirty (30) days of the date each account was received by the
Company specifying the item or items to which objection is made.
(g) During the Term, the Company may borrow and prepay Loans in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
(h) If any Eligible Account is not paid by the Account Debtor within
ninety (90) days after the date that such Eligible Account was
invoiced or if any Account Debtor asserts a deduction, dispute,
contingency, set-off, or counterclaim with respect to any Eligible
Account, (a "Delinquent Account"), the Company shall(i) reimburse
Laurus for the amount of the Loans made with respect to such
Delinquent Account plus an adjustment fee in an amount equal to
one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the gross face amount of such
Eligible Account or (ii) immediately replace such Delinquent
Account with an otherwise Eligible Account.
2.2 Receivables Purchase.
Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Laurus may, at its option, elect to convert the credit
facility contemplated hereby to an accounts receivable purchase
facility. Upon such election by Laurus (subsequent notice of which
Laurus shall provide to Company Agent), the Company shall be deemed
to hereby have sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered
to Laurus, and Laurus shall be deemed to have purchased and received
from the Company, all right, title and interest of the Company in and
to all Accounts which shall at any time constitute Eligible Accounts
(the "Receivables Purchase"). All outstanding Loans hereunder shall
be deemed obligations under such accounts receivable purchase facility.
The conversion to an accounts receivable purchase facility in
accordance with the terms hereof shall not be deemed an exercise by
Laurus of its secured creditor rights under Article 9 of the UCC and
the PPSA. Immediately following Laurus' request, the Company shall
execute all such further documentation as may be required by Laurus to
more fully set forth the accounts receivable purchase facility herein
contemplated, including, without limitation, Laurus' standard form of
accounts receivable purchase agreement and account debtor notification
letters, but the Company's failure to enter into any such documentation
shall not impair or affect the Receivables Purchase in any manner
whatsoever.
4
2.3 Minimum Borrowing Amount.
After a registration statement registering the Registrable Securities
(as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) has been declared
effective by the SEC, conversions of the Minimum Borrowing Amount into
the Common Stock may be initiated as set forth in the respective
Minimum Borrowing Note. From and after the date upon which any
outstanding principal of the Minimum Borrowing Amount (as evidenced by
the first Minimum Borrowing Note) is converted into Common Stock (the
"First Conversion Date"), (i) corresponding amounts of all outstanding
Loans (not attributable to the then outstanding Minimum Borrowing
Amount) existing on or made after the First Conversion Date will be
aggregated in accordance with Section 2.1(a) and (ii), the Company
will issue a new (serialized) Minimum Borrowing Note to Laurus in
accordance with Section 2.1(a), and (iii) the Company shall prepare
and file a subsequent registration statement with the SEC to register
such subsequent Minimum Borrowing Note as set forth in the Registration
Rights Agreement.
2.4 Term Loan.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the
Ancillary Agreements, Laurus shall make a term loan (the "Term Loan")
to the Company (for the benefit of Companies) in an aggregate principal
amount equal to US$500,000. The Term Loan shall be advanced on the
Closing Date and shall be, with respect to principal, payable in
consecutive monthly instalments of principal commencing on
December 1, 2005 and on the first day of each month thereafter, subject
to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or
termination of this Agreement. Principal instalments shall each be
in the amount of US$15,625.00 and the final instalment shall be in an
amount equal to the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan plus all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Term Loan shall be evidenced
by the Secured Convertible Term Note.
Article 3
REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.
The Company (a) may prepay the Obligations from time to time in
accordance with the terms and provisions of the Notes (and Article 17
hereof if such prepayment is due to a termination of this Agreement);
(b) shall repay on the expiration of the Term (i) the then aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the Loans together with accrued and
unpaid interest, fees and charges and; (ii) all other amounts owed
Laurus under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements; and
(c) subject to Section 2.1(b) and Section 5.2(b) hereof, shall repay
on any day on which the then aggregate outstanding principal balance
of the Loans are in excess of the Formula Amount at such time, Loans
in an amount equal to such excess. Any payments of principal,
interest, fees or any other amounts payable hereunder or under any
Ancillary Agreement shall be made prior to 4:00 pm (New York time)
on the due date thereof in immediately available funds.
5
Article 4
PROCEDURE FOR REVOLVING LOANS.
The Company may by written notice request a borrowing of Revolving
Loans prior to 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of its
request to incur, on the next Business Day, a Revolving Loan.
Together with each request for a Revolving Loan (or at such other
intervals as Laurus may request), the Company shall deliver to Laurus
a Borrowing Base Certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto,
which shall be certified as true and correct by the Chief Executive
Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company together with all
supporting documentation relating thereto. All Revolving Loans shall
be disbursed from whichever office or other place Laurus may designate
from time to time and shall be charged to the Company' account on
Laurus' books. The proceeds of each Revolving Loan made by Laurus
shall be made available to the Company on the Business Day following
the Business Day so requested in accordance with the terms of this
Article 4 by way of credit to the applicable Company's operating
account maintained with such bank as the Company designated to Laurus.
Any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder may be charged to the
Company' account and shall constitute Revolving Loans.
Article 5
INTEREST AND PAYMENTS.
5.1 Interest.
(a) Except as modified by Section 5.1(c) below, the Company shall pay
interest at the Contract Rate on the unpaid principal balance of
each Loan until such time as such Loan is collected in full in
good funds in dollars of the United States of America.
(b) Interest and payments shall be computed on the basis of actual
days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Consistent with the terms of
the Loan, Laurus may charge the Company's account for said
interest.
(c) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so
long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the Contract
Rate shall automatically be increased as set forth in the Notes
(such increased rate, the "Default Rate"), and all outstanding
Obligations, including unpaid interest, shall continue to accrue
interest from the date of such Event of Default at the Default
Rate applicable to such Obligations.
(d) In no event shall the aggregate interest payable hereunder exceed
the maximum rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation,
as in effect from time to time (the "Maximum Legal Rate"), and if
any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is in
contravention of any such law or regulation, interest payable
under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall be computed
on the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate (so that such interest will
not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate).
6
(e) The Company shall pay principal, interest and all other amounts
payable hereunder, or under any Ancillary Agreement, without any
deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any set-off or
counterclaim or deduction or withholding for any taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings of whatever kind or
nature. If the Company shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder
to Laurus, then:
(i) the sum payable to Laurus shall be increased as necessary
so that after making all required deductions and
withholdings Laurus receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
been made;
(ii) the Company shall make such deductions and withholdings;
(iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted or
withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law; and
(iv) without duplication of amounts paid under clause (1), the
Company shall also pay to Laurus for the account of
Laurus, at the time interest is paid, all additional
amounts which Laurus specifies as necessary to preserve
the after-tax yield Laurus would have received if such
taxes had not been imposed.
5.2 Payments; Certain Closing Conditions.
(a) Closing/Annual Payments. Upon execution of this Agreement by the
Company and Laurus, the Company shall pay to Laurus Capital
Management, LLC a closing payment in an amount equal to three and
nine tenths (3.90%) percent of the Total Investment Amount. Such
payment shall be deemed fully earned on the Closing Date and shall
not be subject to rebate or proration for any reason.
(b) Overadvance Payment. Without affecting Laurus' rights hereunder
in the event the Revolving Loans exceed the Formula Amount (each
such event, an "Overadvance"), and Laurus elects to exercise its
rights under Section 2.1(b) to make an Overadvance to the Company,
all such Overadvances shall bear additional interest at a rate
equal to two percent (2%) per month of the amount of such
Overadvances for all times such amounts shall be in excess of
the Formula Amount. Unless otherwise specified by Laurus in
writing, all amounts that are incurred pursuant to this
Section 5.2(b) shall be due and payable by the Company monthly,
in arrears, on the first business day of each calendar month
and upon expiration of the Term.
(c) Financial Information Default. Without affecting Laurus' other
rights and remedies, in the event the Company fails to deliver
the financial information required by Article 11 on or before
the date required by this Agreement, the Company shall pay Laurus
an aggregate fee in the amount of US$500.00 per week (or portion
thereof) for each such failure until such failure is cured to
Laurus' satisfaction or waived in writing by Laurus. All amounts
that are incurred pursuant to this Section 5.2(c) shall be due
and payable by the Company monthly, in arrears, on the first
business of each calendar month and upon expiration of the Term.
7
(d) Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Laurus for its expenses
(including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in
connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement
and the Ancillary Agreements, and expenses incurred in connection
with Laurus' due diligence review of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and all related matters. Amounts required to be
paid under this Section 5.2(d) will be paid on the Closing Date
and shall not exceed US$52,500 for such expenses referred to in
this Section 5.2(d).
Article 6
SECURITY INTEREST.
(a) To secure the prompt payment to Laurus of the Obligations, the
Company hereby assigns, pledges and grants to Laurus a continuing
security interest in and Lien upon all of the Collateral. All of
the Company's Books and Records relating to the Collateral shall,
until delivered to or removed by Laurus, be kept by the Company in
trust for Laurus until all Obligations have been paid in full.
Each confirmatory assignment schedule or other form of assignment
hereafter executed by the Company shall be deemed to include the
foregoing grant, whether or not the same appears therein. All
commercial tort claims of the Company are set forth and described
more particularly on Schedule 6(a) hereto.
(b) the Company hereby (i) authorizes Laurus to file any financing
statements, change financing statements, continuation statements
or amendments thereto that (x) indicate the Collateral (1) as all
assets and personal property of the Company or words of similar
effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in
the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC of
such jurisdiction and the PPSA, or (2) as being of an equal or
lesser scope or with greater detail, and (y) contain any other
information required by Part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC and the
PPSA for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
financing statement, change financing statements, continuation
statement or amendment and (ii) ratifies its authorization for
Laurus to have filed any initial financial statements, or
amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. The
Company acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any
financing statement, change financing statements, discharge
statement or amendment or termination statement with respect
to any financing statement without the prior written consent
of Laurus and agrees that it will not do so without the prior
written consent of Laurus which will not be unreasonably withheld,
subject to the Company's rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of
the UCC and under the PPSA.
(c) Reserved.

the filings and other actions listed on Schedule 7.1(d) (which, in

creditors and purchasers and such security interest is prior to
all other Liens in existence on the date hereof;

and (iv) the institution of litigation against third parties as
shall be prudent in order to protect and preserve its and/or

right to acquire, shares of stock or other security convertible
into shares of stock in the Company, or otherwise, and such options,

amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage,
deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement,
instrument or obligation to which Laurus is a party or by which
Laurus' respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result
in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state

other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect

Article 20
REMEDIES.
(a) Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Laurus shall have
the right to demand repayment in full of all Obligations, whether
or not otherwise due. Until all Obligations have been fully and
indefeasibly satisfied, Laurus shall retain its Lien in all
Collateral. To the extent applicable, both before and after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Laurus shall have, in addition
to all other rights provided herein and in each Ancillary
Agreement, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the
UCC, the PPSA and under other applicable law, all other legal
and equitable rights to which Laurus may be entitled, including
the right to take immediate possession of, collect, demand, xxx
on, enforce, recover and receive the Collateral, give valid and
binding receipts and discharges therefor and in respect thereof,
to require the Company to assemble the Collateral, at Companies'
joint and several expense, and to make it available to Laurus at
a place designated by Laurus which is reasonably convenient to
both parties and to enter any of the premises of the Company or
wherever the Collateral shall be located, with or without force
or process of law, and to keep and store the same on said
premises until sold (and if said premises be the property of
the Company, the Company agrees not to charge Laurus for
storage thereof). Further, Laurus may, at any time or times
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, sell and deliver
all Collateral held by or for Laurus at public or private sale
for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon
such terms as Laurus, in Laurus' sole discretion, deems advisable
or Laurus may otherwise recover upon the Collateral in any
43
commercially reasonable manner as Laurus, in its sole discretion,
deems advisable. The requirement of reasonable notice shall be
met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to the Company at
Company's address as shown in Laurus' records, at least ten (10)
days before the time of the event of which notice is being given.
Laurus may be the purchaser at any sale, if it is public. The
proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all costs and expenses
of sale, including operating the Company's accounts, preparing
and enforcing this Agreement, taking and maintaining custody of,
preserving, repairing, possessing, preparing for disposition and
disposing of Collateral and enforcing or collecting indebtedness
and all such costs, charges and expenses, including legal fees,
and second to the payment (in whatever order Laurus elects) of all
Obligations. After the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in
full of all of the Obligations, and after the payment by Laurus of
any other amount required by any provision of law, including
Section 9 608(a)(1) of the UCC and the PPSA (but only after Laurus
has received what Laurus considers reasonable proof of a
subordinate party's security interest), the surplus, if any,
shall be paid to the Company (for the benefit of the applicable
Companies) or its representatives or to whosoever may be lawfully
entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct. The Company shall remain liable to
Laurus for any deficiency. In addition, the Company shall pay
Laurus a liquidation fee ("Liquidation Fee") in the amount of five
percent (5%) of the actual amount collected in respect of each
Account outstanding at any time during a Liquidation Period".
For purposes hereof, "Liquidation Period" means a period:
(i) beginning on the earliest date of (x) an event referred to
in Section Article 19(i) or (j), or (y) the cessation of the
Company's business; and (ii) ending on the date on which Laurus
has actually received all Obligations due and owing it under this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The Liquidation Fee
shall be paid on the date on which Laurus collects the applicable
Account by deduction from the proceeds thereof. The Company and
Laurus acknowledge that the actual damages that would be incurred
by Laurus after the occurrence of an Event of Default would be
difficult to quantify and that the Company and Laurus have agreed
that the fees and obligations set forth in this Section and in
this Agreement would constitute fair and appropriate liquidated
damages in the event of any such termination.
(b) Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, Laurus may appoint or reappoint by instrument in writing,
any person or persons, whether an officer or officers or an
employee or employees of Laurus or not, to be an interim receiver,
receiver or receivers (hereinafter called a "Receiver", which term
when used herein shall include a receiver and manager) of any
Collateral of the Company (including any interest, income or
profits therefrom) and may remove any Receiver so appointed and
appoint another in his/her/its stead. Any such Receiver shall,
so far as concerns responsibility for his/her/its acts, be deemed
the agent of the Company and not Laurus, and Laurus shall not be
in any way responsible for any misconduct, negligence or
non-feasance on the part of any such Receiver or his/her/its
servants, agents or employees. Subject to the provisions of the
instrument appointing him/her/it, any such Receiver shall have
power to take possession of Collateral, to preserve Collateral
or its value, to carry on or concur in carrying on all or any
part of the business of the Company and to sell, lease, license
or otherwise dispose of or concur in selling, leasing, licensing
or otherwise disposing of Collateral. To facilitate the foregoing
44
powers, any such Receiver may, to the exclusion of all others,
including the Company, enter upon, use and occupy all premises
owned or occupied by the Company wherein Collateral may be
situate, maintain Collateral upon such premises, borrow money
on a secured or unsecured basis and use Collateral directly in
carrying on the Company's business or as security for loans or
advances to enable the Receiver to carry on the Company's
business or otherwise, as such Receiver shall, in its discretion,
determine. Except as may be otherwise directed by Laurus, all
money received from time to time by such Receiver in carrying out

amount originally due in the Original Currency. The Company
agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such payment
or judgment to indemnify Laurus against such loss. The term "rate
of exchange" in this paragraph means the spot rate at which Laurus,
in accordance with normal practices, is able on the relevant date to

any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with such
purchase.

thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal
law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such
payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if said payment had not been made.

(a) If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against one

provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected
