shall have no obligation to make Loan Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if:
(a) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the terms of this Agreement or
any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any
Guarantor has with Lender; (b) Borrower or any Guarantor becomes insolvent,

with Lender (whether checking, savings, or some other account), including
without limitation all accounts held jointly with someone else and all accounts

and all trust accounts for which the grant of a security interest would be
prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the indebtedness against
any and all such accounts.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement:
DEFAULT ON INDEBTEDNESS. Failure of Borrower to make any payment when
due on the Loans.
OTHER DEFAULTS. Failure of Borrower or any Grantor to comply with or to
perform when due any other term, obligation, covenant or condition
contained in this Agreement or in any of the Related Documents, or
failure of Borrower to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement
between Lender and Borrower.
DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Should Borrower or any Grantor
default under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement,
purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any
other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's
property or Borrower's or any Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or
perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the
Related Documents.
FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any Grantor under
this Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any
material respect at the time made or furnished, or becomes false or
misleading at any time thereafter.
DEFECTIVE COLLATERALIZATION. This Agreement or any of the Related
Documents ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of
any Security Agreement to create a valid and perfected Security
Interest) at any time and for any reason.
INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a
receiver for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the
benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement
of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against
Borrower.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower, any
creditor of any Grantor against any collateral securing the
Indebtedness, or by any governmental agency. This includes a
garnishment, attachment, or levy on or of any of Borrower's deposit
accounts with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if
there is a good faith dispute by Borrower or Grantor, as the case may
be, as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis
of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, and if Borrower or Grantor
gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and
furnishes reserves or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding satisfactory to Lender.
EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with
respect to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor
dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or
liability under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness. Lender, at its
option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor's estate
to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in
a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure the Event of
Default.
CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP. Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent
(25%) or more of the common stock of Borrower.
ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's
financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or
performance of the Indebtedness is impaired.
INSECURITY. Lender, in good faith, deems itself insecure.
RIGHT TO CURE. If any default, other than a Default on Indebtedness, is
curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been
given a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12)
months, it may be cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) (if
Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, after receiving written notice
from Lender demanding cure of such default: (a) cures the default within
fifteen (15) days; or (b) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15)
days, immediately initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole
discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues
and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce
compliance as soon as reasonably practical.
EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except
where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all
commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related
Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any
obligation to make Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option,
all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of
any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the
type described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's
rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement.
AMENDMENTS. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to
the matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or amendment
to this Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed
by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration
or amendment.
APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement has been delivered to Lender and
accepted by Lender in the State of California. If there is a lawsuit
Borrower agrees upon Lender's request to submit to the jurisdiction of

Loan No. 127836001 (Continued)
================================================================================
to the provisions on arbitration, this Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
ARBITRATION. Lender and Borrower agree that all disputes, claims and
controversies between them, whether individual, joint, or class in nature,
arising from this Agreement or otherwise, including without limitation contract
and tort disputes, shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Rules of the American
Arbitration Association, upon request of either party. No act to take or
dispose of any Collateral shall constitute a waiver of this arbitration
agreement or be prohibited by this arbitration agreement. This includes,
without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a temporary restraining
order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or mortgage; obtaining
a writ of attachment or imposition of a receiver; or exercising any rights
relating to personal property, including taking or disposing of such property
with or without judicial process pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code. Any disputes, claims, or controversies concerning the
lawfulness or reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any right, concerning
any Collateral, including any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise modify any
agreement relating to the Collateral, shall also be arbitrated, provided
however that no arbitrator shall have the right or the power to enjoin or
restrain any act of any party. Lender and Borrower agree that in the event of
an action for judicial foreclosure pursuant to California Code of Civil
Procedure Section 726, or any similar provision in any other state, the
commencement of such an action will not constitute a waiver of the right to
arbitrate and the court shall refer to arbitration as much of such action,
including counterclaims, as lawfully may be referred to arbitration. Judgment
upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude any party from seeking
equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The statute of
limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar doctrines which would
otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party shall be applicable in
any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an arbitration proceeding
shall be deemed the commencement of an action for these purposes. The Federal
Arbitration Act shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and
enforcement of this arbitration provision.
CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of
this Agreement.
CONSENT TO LOAN PARTICIPATION. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's sale
or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation interests in the
Loans to one or more purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender. Lender
may provide, without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers,
or potential purchasers, any information or knowledge Lender may have about
Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby
waives any rights to privacy it may have with respect to such matters. Borrower
additionally waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests, as
well as all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower
also agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be
considered as the absolute owners of such interests in the Loans and will have
all the rights granted under the participation agreement or agreements
governing the sale of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all
rights of offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender
or against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally
agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower's obligation
under the Loans irrespective of the failure to insolvency of any holder of any
interest in the Loans. Borrower further agrees that the purchaser of any such
participation interests may enforce its interests irrespective of any personal
claims or defenses that Borrower may have against Lender.
COSTS AND EXPENSES. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's
expenses, including without limitation attorneys' fees, incurred in connection
with the preparation, execution, enforcement, modification and collection of
this Agreement or in connection with the Loans made pursuant to this Agreement.
Lender may pay someone else to help collect the Loans and to enforce this
Agreement, and Borrower will pay that amount. This includes, subject to any
limits under applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees and Lender's legal
expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees for
bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic
stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Borrower also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums
provided by law.
NOTICES. All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be given
in writing, may be sent by telefacsimile, and shall be effective where actually
delivered or when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier or
deposited in the United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to
the party to whom the notice is to be given at the address shown above. Any
party may change its address for notice under this Agreement by giving formal
written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice
is to change the party's address. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if
there is more than one Borrower, notice to any Borrower will constitute notice
to all Borrowers. For notice purposes, Borrower will keep Lender informed at
all times of Borrower's current address(es).
SEVERABILITY. If a court competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this
Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person of circumstance, such
finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any
other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any such offending provision shall
be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity;
however, if the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken
and all other provisions of this Agreement in all other respects shall remain
valid and enforceable.
SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES OF BORROWER. To the extent the context of any
provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without limitation
any representation, warranty or covenant, the word "Borrower" as used herein
shall include all subsidiaries and affiliates of Borrower. Notwithstanding the
foregoing however, under no circumstances shall this Agreement be construed to
require Lender to make any Loan or other financial accommodation to any
subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements contained by or on behalf
of Borrower shall bind its successors and assigns and shall inure to the
benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns. Borrower shall not, however,
have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement of any interest
therein, without the prior written consent of Lender.
SURVIVAL. All warranties, representations, and covenants made by Borrower in
this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered to Borrower
to Lender under this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by
Lender and will survive the making of the Loan and delivery to Lender of the
Related Document, regardless of any investigation made by Lender or on Lender's
behalf.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
Agreement.
WAIVER. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay
or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a
waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of
this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right
otherwise to demand strict compliance with the provisions or any other
provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of
dealing between Lender and Borrower, between Lender and any Grantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any obligations of Borrower
or of any Grantor as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any
instance, shall not constitute continuing consent in subsequent instances where
such consent is required, and in all cases such consent may be granted withheld
in the sole discretion of Lender.
