during the term of this Agreement.
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 is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement,
based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer, or without
instructions if in Bank's discretion such Advances are necessary to meet
Obligations which have become due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to
rely on any telephonic notice given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to

(a) Borrower may request that Bank issue a letter of

charges) in United States currency at the then prevailing rate of exchange in

to the country of which it is the currency.
(b) Upon the issuance of any letter of credit payable
in a currency other than United States Dollars, Bank shall create a reserve

amount of such reserve for so long as such letter of credit remains outstanding.
2.1.3 EQUIPMENT ADVANCES.
(a) At any time from the date hereof through February
19, 1997 (the "EQUIPMENT AVAILABILITY END DATE"), Borrower may from time to time
request advances (each an "Equipment Advance" and collectively, the "Equipment

Line or (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank, in
cash, the amount of such excess.
2.3. INTEREST RATES, PAYMENTS, AND CALCULATIONS.
2.3.1 INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on all Advances shall
be applied as follows:
(a) Any Advances under the Committed Revolving Line shall bear
interest, on the average Daily Balance, at a rate equal to one-half of one
(0.50) percentage point above the Prime Rate.
(b) Any Advances under the Committed Equipment Line shall bear
interest, on the average Daily Balance, at a rate equal to one and one-half
(1.50) percentage points above the Prime Rate.
2.3.2 DEFAULT RATE. All Obligations shall bear interest, from
and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5)
percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the
occurrence of the Event of Default.
2.3.3 PAYMENTS. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on
the Payment Date of each month during the term hereof. Borrower hereby
authorizes Bank to debit any accounts with Bank, including, without limitation,
Account Number __________ for payments of principal and interest due on the
Obligations and any other amounts owing by Borrower to Bank. Bank will notify
Borrower of all debits which Bank makes against Borrower's accounts. Any such
debits against Borrower's accounts in no way shall be deemed a set-off. 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.
2.3.4 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 12:01 a.m. on the day the Prime Rate is
changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest
chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three
hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
2.4 CREDITING PAYMENTS. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to
such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence
of an Event of Default, 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.
2.5 FEES. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:
2.5.1 FACILITY FEE. A Facility Fee equal to Twenty Thousand
Dollars ($20,000) for the Committed Revolving Line and a Facility Fee equal to

principal or interest or any other amounts payable hereunder by Borrower or
otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (except for taxes
on the overall net income of Bank imposed by the United States of America or any
political subdivision thereof);
2.6.2 imposes, modifies or deems applicable any deposit
insurance, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held
by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, Bank; or
2.6.3 imposes upon Bank any other condition with respect to
its performance under this Agreement,
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank, reduce
the income receivable by Bank or impose any expense upon Bank with respect to
any loans, Bank shall notify Borrower thereof. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank
the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income or additional expense
as and when such cost, reduction or expense is incurred or determined, upon
presentation by Bank of a statement of the amount and setting forth Bank's
calculation thereof, all in reasonable detail, which statement shall be deemed
true and correct absent manifest error.
2.7 TERM. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement shall
become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to SECTION 12.7, shall
continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the later of the
Revolving Maturity Date or the Equipment Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make
Advances under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence

performance of the Loan Documents are within Borrower's powers, have been duly
authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any
provision contained in Borrower's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, nor will
they constitute an event of default under any material agreement to which

under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, which
default could have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.3 NO PRIOR ENCUMBRANCES. Borrower has good and indefeasible title to
the Collateral, free and clear of Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its
election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which
are authorized by Borrower:
16.
18
9.1.1 Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this
Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in
SECTION 8.5 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any
action by Bank);
9.1.2 Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the
benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between
Borrower and Bank;
9.1.3 Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with
account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank
reasonably considers advisable;
9.1.4 Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make such
payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect
its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as
Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any
part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or lien which in Bank's determination appears to be prior or superior to
its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
With respect to any of Borrower's owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a
license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same,
without charge, for up to one hundred twenty (120) days in order to exercise any
of Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
9.1.5 Without notice to Borrower set off and apply to the
Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or
(ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of
Borrower held by Bank;
9.1.6 Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely
pursuant to the provisions of this SECTION 9.1, to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in
connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this SECTION 9.1, Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's
benefit;
9.1.7 Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale,
or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms,
in such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Bank
determines is commercially reasonable;
9.1.8 Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
9.1.9 Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.
9.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Effective only upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints
Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as Borrower's true
and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify
account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse
Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may
come into Bank's possession; (c) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or xxxx of
lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and
assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account
debtors; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with
respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; and (e) settle and adjust disputes
and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts
and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; provided Bank may
exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the
documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default has
occurred. The appointment
17.
19
of Bank as Borrower's attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank's rights
and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the
Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to
provide advances hereunder is terminated.
9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION. At any time from the date of this Agreement, Bank
may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Bank's security interest in
such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Borrower shall collect all
amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank's
trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as
received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.4 BANK EXPENSES. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any
required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under
the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (a)
make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the
Committed Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the
exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies
of the type discussed in SECTION 6.6 of this Agreement, and take any action with
respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited
by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable,
and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and
shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not
constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a
waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
9.5 BANK'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. So long as Bank complies with
reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage
thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any
diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of
loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.
9.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement,
the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall
have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under
the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall
be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on
Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall
constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be
effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which it was given.
9.7 DEMAND; PROTEST. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest,
notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any
default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or
renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at
any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable.
