Borrower shall also pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of Advances at rates in accordance with the terms hereof.

(a) Revolving Advances.

(i) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may request, and Bank shall make available, Advances from time to time in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Line Limit or (ii) the Borrowing Base minus, in each case, the Letter of Credit Exposure and the FX Amount. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Advances under this Section 2.1(a) shall be immediately due and payable. Borrower may prepay any Advances in whole or in part without penalty or premium.

(ii) Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower will notify Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time, on the Business Day that the Advance is to be made. Each such notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto.

Bank shall be entitled to rely on any telephonic notice given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof. Bank will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section 2.1(a) to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies.

(b) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at any time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, Bank agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrower and the other Credit Parties (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) in an aggregate outstanding face amount not to exceed the lesser of the Revolving Line Limit or the Borrowing Base minus, in each case, the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances and the FX Amount at any time, provided that the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed $500,000, and provided further that no Letter of Credit is used directly or indirectly to benefit the holders of the Subordinated Notes (as defined in the US Loan Agreement) or otherwise will violate Sections 151 to 158 of the Companies Xxx 0000. All Letters of Credit shall be, in form and substance, acceptable to Bank in its reasonable discretion and shall be subject to (i) the terms and conditions of Bank’s form of standard application and letter of credit agreement with such changes thereto as Borrower and Bank may agree (the “Application”) and (ii) payment by Borrower of Bank’s standard fees. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the terms of any Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. If Bank is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, Borrower immediately shall reimburse the amount of the funds so advanced not later than 10:00 a.m. (Pacific time) on the date that such payment is made by Bank under the Letter of Credit, if Borrower shall have received written or telephonic notice of such payment prior to 9:00 a.m. (Pacific time) on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 10:00 a.m. (Pacific time), on the first Business Day that Borrower has such notice prior to prior to 9:00 a.m. (Pacific time), and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the unreimbursed amount automatically shall be deemed to be an Advance under Section 2.1(a). To the extent an unreimbursed amount under a Letter of Credit is deemed to be an Advance hereunder, Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such amount shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Advance. If any portion of the Letter of Credit Exposure, whether or not then due and payable, remains unpaid or outstanding on the Revolving Maturity Date or such earlier date as this Agreement may be terminated, Borrower shall: (A) provide cash collateral therefor on terms reasonably acceptable to Bank; or (B) cause all such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof, if any, to be cancelled and returned; or (C) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guarantee of such portion of the Letter of Credit Exposure, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount equal to at

The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Application, and such Letters of Credit, under all circumstances whatsoever; provided, however, that after paying in full its reimbursement obligation hereunder, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of Borrower to commence any proceeding against Bank for any wrongful disbursement made by Bank under a Letter of Credit as a result or solely to the extent of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Bank. Borrower shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Bank harmless from any loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with any Letters of Credit, except for expenses caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) Foreign Exchange Sublimit. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any other agreement that Borrower may enter into with the Bank in connection with foreign exchange transactions, including foreign exchange services (“FX Contracts”) and subject to the availability under the Revolving Line Limit and the Borrowing Base minus, in each case, the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances and the Letter of Credit Exposure any time, Borrower may request Bank to enter into FX Contracts with Borrower due not later than the Revolving Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay any standard issuance and other fees that Bank notifies Borrower in advance will be charged for issuing and processing FX Contracts for Borrower. The FX Amount shall at all times be equal to or less than $500,000. The “FX Amount” shall equal the amount determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount, in United States Dollars, of FX Contracts between Borrower and Bank remaining outstanding as of any date of determination by (ii) the applicable Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage as of such date.

All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to four (4) percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default.

(c) Payments. Subject to Section 12.4(f), interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the tenth calendar day of each month during the term hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Subject to Section 12.4 (Taxes), all payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the end that Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable hereunder, regardless of source of payment. Payments will be made via wire transfer to Bank.

(d) Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate.

2.4 Crediting Payments. If an Event of Default does not exist, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. If an Event of Default exists, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

If the jury waiver set forth in Section is not enforceable, then any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated therein shall be settled by judicial reference pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. before a referee sitting without a jury, such referee to be mutually acceptable to the parties or, if no agreement is reached, by a referee appointed by the Presiding Judge of the California Superior Court for Santa Xxxxx County. This Section shall not restrict a party from exercising remedies under the Code or from exercising pre-judgment remedies under applicable law.

12. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Borrower without Bank’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Bank’s sole discretion. Subject to compliance with Section 12.4 by both Bank and the Transferee (as defined in Section 12.4 (Taxes)), Bank shall have the right without the consent of or notice to Borrower’s to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits hereunder.

12.2 Indemnification. Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its

officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Bank as a result of or in any way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification.

12.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations set forth in this Agreement.

12.4 Taxes

(a) Subject to this Section 12.4, any and all payments by Borrower or any other Credit Party to Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding such taxes (including income taxes or franchise taxes) as are imposed on or measured by the net income of Bank by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Bank is

organized or maintains a Lending Office or other taxable presence or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).

(b) In addition, Borrower and the other Credit Parties shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Subject to this Section 12.4, the Credit Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless Bank for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12.4) paid by Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted except in the case of Taxes or Other Taxes incurred due to the wilful breach by Bank of any law or regulation. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within three (3) Business Days from the date Bank makes written demand therefor.

(d) If any Credit Party shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Bank, then, subject to this Section 12.4:

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 12.4), Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;

(ii) such Credit Party shall make such deductions; and

(iii) such Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(e) Within ten (10) days after the date of any payment by any Credit Party of Taxes or Other Taxes, Borrower shall furnish to Bank the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Bank.

(f) Subject to the proviso to this Section 12.4(f), Bank shall not be entitled to any additional amounts solely in respect of a deduction or withhold for or on account of United Kingdom Taxes (a “UK Withholding Tax Deduction”) in respect of interest payable by the Borrower hereunder, if on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to Bank without a UK Withholding Tax Deduction if Bank was entitled under a Treaty to a full exemption from UK Withholding Tax Deductions in respect of interest payable hereunder, but on such date Bank is not or has ceased to be entitled to a full exemption from UK Withholding Tax Deductions other than as a result of any change after the Closing Date in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof; provided that, in the case of the first due date for the payment of interest under Section 2.3(c) (i.e., March 10, 2008), where Section 12.4(i)(ii) applies and has been complied with by Bank, but an approval under the Treaty has not yet been obtained, interest hereunder shall accrue but not be payable (and shall not thereby be treated as an Advance) until the earlier of (x) an Event of Default occurring, and (y) the relevant approval being granted and (z) the date which (but for this provision) would have been the second due date for the payment of interest under Section 2.3(c) (i.e., April 10, 2008) and Section 2.3(c) shall be varied accordingly. On the earlier of (i) three (3) Business Days following Bank notifying Borrower that the relevant approval has been granted or Borrower otherwise becoming aware thereof and (ii) such second due date for the payment of interest under Section 2.3(c) (i.e., April 10, 2008), interest shall in any event be payable in accordance with Section 12.4(a) and (d).

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document but subject to the next following sentence, if at any time after the Closing Date or the making of any Advance (x) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (y) any new law,

regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any interpretation or application thereof, or (z) compliance by Bank with new request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority: (i) subjects Bank to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding imposed by any taxing authority with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to Bank of any amount payable thereunder (except in each case, for net income taxes imposed generally by any taxing authority under the law of the jurisdiction where Bank is organized or where it has a Lending Office or its principal place of business (or, if different, in which, other than by reason of its execution and performance of the Loan Documents, it is treated as resident for tax purposes) or in which its applicable lending office is located, with respect to interest or commitment fees or other fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Bank), or (ii) imposes on Bank any other condition or increased cost (not related to taxation) in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of making or continuing or maintaining any Loan hereunder or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, the Credit Parties shall promptly pay to Bank any additional amounts necessary to compensate Bank, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by Bank (acting reasonably and in good faith). The Credit Parties shall not be required to pay any amounts as provided in the preceding sentence, (i) to the extent such increased cost or reduced amount is attributable to the wilful breach by Bank (or its Affiliate) of any law or regulation, (ii) to the extent such increased cost or reduced amount is attributable to a withholding for or on account of Tax in respect of which the Credit Parties have complied with Section 12.4(d) or (iii) to the extent Bank shall have already been compensated, or is not entitled to compensation, for such increased cost or reduced amount under Section 12.4(c). If Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 12.4 it shall reasonably promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof notify Borrower of the event by reason of which Bank has become so entitled, and each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 12.4 submitted by Bank to the Credit Parties shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(h) If at any time the Borrower or any other Credit Party is required by law to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable by it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or if subsequently there is any change in the rates at which or the manner in which such deductions or withholdings are calculated), it shall promptly notify Bank upon becoming aware of the same. In addition, Bank shall promptly notify Borrower upon becoming aware of any circumstances as a result of which Borrower or any other Credit Party is or would be required to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable by it under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document (or if subsequently there is or would be any change in the rates at which or the manner in which such deductions or withholdings are calculated), whether as a result of Bank ceasing to beneficially own interest payable hereunder or otherwise. If Bank ceases to be a Treaty Lender by reason of an action taken by Bank or by reason of a failure by Bank to take any action as required by this Agreement shall, upon becoming aware of such action or failure, also promptly notify Borrower of its change in status, the date of such change and the reason for its change in status. The Borrower or any Credit Party, as appropriate, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with the applicable law and promptly provide an original tax certificate of withholding to Bank.

(i) To the extent that the Borrower or another Credit Party reasonably determines that (i) Bank may recover Taxes deducted from payments made by Borrower or such Credit Party under any Loan Document to the extent Borrower or such Credit Party shall have paid additional amounts in respect of such Taxes under Section 12.4(d) or (ii) a withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes may be avoided or reduced if, in either case, Bank completes certain procedural formalities and/or provides properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law, Bank shall within a reasonable timeframe cooperate with Borrower to complete such procedural formalities and/or provide such documentation to the Borrower (in each case but save as further provided below, upon the Borrower’s reasonable request and at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense); and provided that (save as further provided below Bank determines in its sole, good faith reasonable judgment that completing such procedural formalities and/or providing such documentation will not disadvantage or prejudice Bank in any manner and provided further that Bank acknowledges that Section 12.4(i)(ii) applies (without limitation to any further application of this Section 12.4(i)) from the date of this Agreement until the date on which Bank receives approval under the Treaty to a full exemption from UK Withholding Tax Deductions in respect of interest payable hereunder and the costs of completing with the requisite procedural formalities in respect of such approval shall be borne by Bank.

(j) If Bank determines in its sole, good faith reasonable judgment that it has received a remission for, or a refund or direct credit in respect of and specifically associated with any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Credit Party, or with respect to which such Credit Party has paid additional amounts, it shall promptly notify the Credit Party of such remission, refund or direct credit and shall within 30 days from the date of receipt of such refund or benefit of such remission or direct credit pay over the amount of such refund or benefit of such remission or direct credit (including any interest paid or credited by the relevant Governmental Authority attributable to such remission, refund or direct credit) to the Credit Party but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such remission, refund or direct credit, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Person. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Bank has made a payment to any Credit Party in respect of a remission, refund or direct credit of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to the preceding sentence, to the extent any remission is withdrawn or any refund or direct credit is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority, such amount shall be treated as a Tax subject to indemnification under this Section 12.4.

(k) If, at any time, Borrower requests Bank to deliver any forms or other documentation in addition to those forms required to be delivered by such Lender pursuant to Section 12.4, then Borrower shall, on demand reimburse Bank for any costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) reasonably incurred by Bank in the preparation or delivery of such forms or other documentation.

(l) If Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to Bank pursuant to Section 12.4, then Bank shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by Borrower which may thereafter accrue if such change in the judgment of Bank is not otherwise disadvantageous to Bank. In addition to the foregoing and if Bank deems it commercially reasonable in its sole discretion, such Lender agrees to obtain a refund or credit for any additional amounts paid by Borrower to Bank pursuant to Sections 12.4, and, to the extent any such refund or credit is obtained, apply such amounts to the outstanding Obligations owing by such Credit Party under this Agreement. The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Bank as a result of steps taken by it pursuant to this Section 12.4(l).

(m) If:

(i) Bank (the “Existing Bank”) assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or changes its Lending Office; and

(ii) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a Credit Party would be obliged to make a payment to the assignee or transferee (the “Transferee”) or Bank acting through its new Lending Office under this Section 12.4,

then the Transferee or Bank acting through its new Lending Office is only entitled to receive payment under this Section 12.4 to the same extent as the Existing Bank or Bank acting through its previous Lending Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.

(n) On claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Section 12.4 Bank shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to Bank hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Credit Parties in the absence of manifest error.

(o) The agreements and obligations of the Credit Parties in this Section 12.4 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations. Save as provided otherwise in this Section 12.4, this Section 12 does not in any way limit the obligations of any Credit Party under the Loan Documents.

12.5 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

12.6 Amendments in Writing, Integration. Neither this Agreement nor the Loan Documents can be amended or terminated orally. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, if any, are merged into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

12.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic copy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

12.8 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making and funding of the Advances so long as any Obligations remain outstanding (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no claim has been made) or Bank has any obligation to make Credit Extensions to Borrower. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 12.2 and the confidentiality provisions of Section 12.9 shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought have run.

12.9 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information Bank and all employees and agents of Bank, including but not limited to accountants, shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except that disclosure of such information may be made (i) to the subsidiaries or affiliates of Bank in connection with their present or prospective business relations with Borrower (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section 12.9), (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, provided that they have (x) entered into a comparable confidentiality agreement in favor of Borrower to which Borrower is a party or pursuant to which Parent and its Subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries and (y) delivered a copy of such confidentiality agreement to Borrower, (iii) as required by law, regulations, rule or order, subpoena, judicial order or similar order, (iv) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of Bank by a regulatory authority or examiner regulating or having jurisdiction over Bank and requiring or requesting such disclosure and (v) as Bank may determine in connection with the enforcement of any remedies hereunder at any time during the existence of an Event of Default. Confidential information hereunder shall not include information that either: (a) is in the public domain or in the knowledge or possession of Bank when disclosed to Bank with no confidentiality obligations to a third party, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank through no fault of Bank; or (b) is disclosed to Bank by a third party on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of this Section 12.9, provided Bank does not have actual knowledge that such third party is prohibited from disclosing such information. Should Bank be required to disclose any such information by virtue of a subpoena or similar process by any court, tribunal, or agency pursuant to items (iii), (iv) or (v) above, then Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify Borrower thereof so as to allow Borrower or the other applicable Credit Party, at its sole cost and expense, to seek a protective order or to take any other appropriate action to protect its rights.

12.10 Patriot Act. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU: when you open an account, we will ask your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

12.11 No Consequential Damages. No party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any agent or attorney of such party or Bank, shall be liable to any other party to this Agreement or any other Person on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages.
