Agreement as follows:
1. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF EXISTING OBLIGATIONS
1.1 Acknowledgements of obligations under Existing Loan Agreement. Borrower
hereby acknowledges and agrees that Silicon Valley Bank provided Borrower with
the Existing Loans under the Existing Loan Agreement. The Existing Loans consist
of the Existing Revolving Loans, which have an outstanding principal balance as
of the date hereof of $376,997.82 (the "Existing Obligations"). Borrower further
acknowledges and agrees that the Existing Obligations remain unpaid, constitute
valid and existing debt obligations of Borrower, that Borrower has no defenses
to its obligation to pay the Existing Obligations and that Borrower has no right
to any offset or other deduction from the Existing Obligations.
1.2 Acknowledgement of assignment of Existing Obligations to ELIN.
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that on or about the 26th day of June
2003, Silicon Valley Bank entered into that certain Assignment of Note and Liens
with ELIN Corporation whereby it sold and assigned the Existing Loan Agreement
to ELIN Corporation intact with all exhibits and schedules thereto and all
ancillary agreements entered into in accordance therewith, specifically
including the Security Agreement and Financing Statement. Borrower further
acknowledges and agrees that as of the effective date thereof the Existing
Obligations were validly assigned to ELIN, constituted valid and existing debt
obligations of Borrower, that Borrower has no defenses to its obligation to pay
the Existing Obligations and that Borrower has no right to any offset or other

with the Assignees whereby it sold and assigned the Existing Loan Agreement
intact with all exhibits and schedules thereto and all ancillary agreements
entered into in accordance therewith, specifically including the Security
Agreement and Financing Statement to the Assignees and Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that as of the effective date thereof the Existing Obligations were
validly assigned to Lender. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that
Existing Obligations constitute valid and existing debt obligations of Borrower
to Lender, that Borrower has no defenses to its obligation to pay the Existing
Obligations and that Borrower has no right to any offset or other deduction from
the Existing Obligations.
1.4 Acknowledgement of validity and continuation of Security Interest.
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that in connection with the purchase of
the Existing Loan Agreement the Lender became the holders of a security interest
in substantially all of the assets of Borrower (the Collateral") pursuant to the
terms of the Security Agreement and Financing Statement originally executed in
favor of Silicon Valley Bank, which security interest is valid as of the date
hereof in favor of Lender. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that the
security interest in the Collateral held by Lender is a first lien priority
security interest in substantially all of the assets of Borrower, specifically
including, without limitation, all intellectual property owned by Borrower or
necessary to the conduct of Borrower's business.
2. RE-DESIGNATION OF EXISTING OBLIGATIONS AS TERM LOAN
2.1 Re-Designation of Existing Obligations as a Term Loan. Borrower acknowledges
and agrees that, in connection with the execution hereof: (i) the Existing
Obligations shall, irrevocably and automatically and without any action required
by Borrower or Lender, be deemed to have been borrowed as a Term Loan and (ii)
Lender shall be deemed to have made an additional term loan to Borrower in the
principal amount of $8779.26, as set forth in Section 3 hereinbelow, which
amount shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan as
of the date hereof. Accordingly, on and as of the execution hereof, the
aggregate principal balance of the Term Loan due and owing to Lender is
$386,706.46 and shall be evidenced by the Term Notes.
2.2 Termination of Certain Credit Facilities. Borrower acknowledges and agrees
that, on and as of the execution hereof, Lender shall not be obligated to make
any Revolving Loans or have any Revolving Loan Commitment (as defined in the
Existing Loan Agreement), it being understood that, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary, all such obligations shall have been terminated on and as of the
execution hereof without any liability or obligation to Lender.
3. ADVANCE OF ADDITIONAL FUNDS
3.1 Loan Origination Fee. As partial consideration of the agreement by Lender to
extend the maturity date and modify the terms of the Existing Obligations as set
forth in the Term Notes, Borrower has agreed to pay Lender a fee equal to one
percentage point of the Existing Obligations. Borrower has requested that Lender
advance Borrower such funds as necessary to pay the Loan Origination Fee. In
accordance therewith, the sum of $3,779.26 shall be deemed to have been borrowed
from Lender by Borrower on the date of the execution hereof to pay the Loan
Origination Fee in full, and such amount shall be added to and constitute a
portion of the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan as evidenced by the Term
Notes, and the Term Notes shall be deemed to evidence in part the additional
borrowed funds used to pay the Loan Origination Fee.
3.2 Reimbursement for Legal Fees and Other Costs. As partial consideration of
the agreement by Lender to extend the maturity date and modify the terms of the
Existing Obligations as set forth in the Term Notes, Borrower has agreed to pay
to Lender the sum of $5,000 to offset the cost of legal fees and associated
costs incurred by Lender in the negotiation, preparation and review of the
transactions contemplated hereby and the documents executed in furtherance
hereof. Borrower has requested that Lender advance such funds to Borrower. In
accordance therewith, the sum of $5,000 shall be deemed to have been borrowed
from Lender by Borrower on the date of the execution hereof to Lender the sum of
$5,000 to offset the cost of legal fees and associated costs incurred by Lender
in full, and such amount shall be added to and constitute a portion of the
amounts outstanding under the Term Loan as evidenced by the Term Notes, and the
Term Notes shall be deemed to evidence in part the additional borrowed funds
used to pay the Loan Origination Fee.
4. EXECUTION OF TERM NOTES
4.1 Term Notes. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by, and repayable in accordance
with the terms of the Term Notes and this Agreement. The Term Notes shall
represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the Term Loan, together with
interest, fees and other amounts due thereon, as prescribed therein. In
connection therewith, Borrower is executing two separate notes, one in favor of
each of the Assignees in the amount of one half of the Term Loan. Borrower shall
pay principal, interest, fees, and all other amounts due on the Existing
Obligations and the additional funds advanced by Lender pursuant to the terms of
the Term Notes without setoff, counterclaim or any deduction whatsoever.
4.2 Term Loan Maturity. On the maturity date as set forth in the Term Notes,
Borrower shall repay the Term Loan including all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon together with all other amounts due and owing pursuant to the Existing
Loan Agreement, as amended, modified and restated by this Agreement and all
other obligations of Borrower to Lender related thereto, if not sooner paid in
full.
4.3 Calculation and Payment of Interest.
(a) Interest Rate. So long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, interest shall accrue on the
outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan at the rate of
twelve percent (12%) per annum as set forth in the Term Notes.
(b) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, in addition to the rights, powers and
remedies available to Lender, interest on all outstanding
amounts due pursuant to the Term Loan shall accrue and be
payable at the Default Rate of eighteen percent (18%) per
annum without the necessity of any action by Lender. Interest
accruing at the Default Rate shall be payable to Lender on
demand. Lender shall not be required to accelerate the
maturity of the Term Loan or exercise any other rights or
remedies under any loan document, in order to charge the
Default Rate.
(c) Maximum Rate. In no event shall the aggregate of all
interest on the Term Loan charged or collected pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement or pursuant to the Term Notes exceed
the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem
applicable. In the event that such a court determines that
Lender has charged or received interest under this Agreement
or the Term Notes in excess of the highest applicable rate,
the rate in effect under this Agreement and the Term Notes
shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted
by Applicable Law and Lender shall promptly apply such excess
to reduce the principal balance of the Term Loan, or if the
principal balance of the Term Loan has been paid in full,
Lender shall promptly apply such excess to reduce any other
obligations of Borrower to Lender, and if all such obligations
have been paid in full, then Lender shall refund to Borrower
any interest received by Lender in excess of the maximum
lawful rate.
4.4 Prepayment. If Borrower elects to prepay all or any portion of the principal
balance of either Term Note, it shall furnish written notice to both Assignees
with respect to each voluntary prepayment not less than ninety (90) days prior
to the date of prepayment. Such notice shall set forth the Term Note to be
prepaid, the specific date of prepayment and the principal amount of such Term
Note to be prepaid on such date. Such notice, once given, shall be irrevocable.
Notice of prepayment having been given as aforesaid, Borrower shall make a
prepayment to Lender on such prepayment date in an amount equal to the principal
amount to be prepaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the
then-outstanding principal balance of such Term Note through the date of
prepayment; provided that Borrower shall also reimburse Lender at such time for
any reasonable direct loss or out-of-pocket expense incurred by Lender in
connection with such prepayment.
4.5 All Obligations to Constitute One Obligation. All obligations payable to
Lender pursuant to, in consideration of or related to the Term Loan and the Term
Notes constitute one general obligation of Borrower and shall be secured by
Lenders' liens upon all of the Collateral, and by all other Liens previously,
now, or at any time in the future granted by Borrower to Lender.
5. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION
5.1 Issuance of Warrants. As partial consideration of the agreement by Lender to
extend the maturity date and modify the terms of the Existing Obligations as set
forth in the Term Notes, Borrower has agreed to issue Lender warrants
(hereinafter the "Warrant") to purchase from Borrower One Million Two Hundred
Eighty Nine Thousand Twenty (1,289,020) shares of duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of
the Borrower (the "Restricted Stock") at the purchase price per share of Thirty
Cents ($0.30), exercisable at any time or from time to time prior to 5:00 p.m.
Central Standard time, on June 30, 2008 (the "Expiration Date"), all subject to
the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth in the Warrant. Additionally
Borrower has agreed to execute and deliver to Lender a Registration Rights
Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which Borrower has
agreed to file a registration statement regarding the Restricted Stock. In
accordance therewith, and as partial consideration hereof, Borrower shall
concurrently herewith issue and deliver to each Assignee a warrant to purchase,
at the purchase price per share of Thirty Cents ($0.30), Six Hundred Forty Four
Thousand Five Hundred Ten (644,510) shares of duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock of Viseon, Inc., par value $0.01 per
share, valid from the date hereof expiring at 5:00 p.m. Central Standard time,
on June 30, 2008, together with a registration rights agreement regarding the
shares to be acquired pursuant thereto.
6. MISCELLANEOUS.
6.1 Modification and Continuing Validity of Existing Loan Agreement. Without
further action by any party, effective upon the execution hereof this Agreement
amends and restates in its entirety the Existing Loan Agreement to the extent
that the two are inconsistent. However, the execution and delivery of this
Agreement shall not excuse, or constitute a waiver of, any Defaults or Events of
Default under the Existing Loan Agreement, it being understood that this
Agreement is not a termination of the Existing Loan Agreement, but is a
modification (and, as modified, a continuation) of the Existing Loan Agreement.
All remaining terms of the Existing Loan Agreement not addressed or amended
hereby shall remain in full force and effect as if this Agreement had never been
executed. Effective on and concurrent with the execution hereof, Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the Existing Loan Agreement, as amended and
restated hereby, is reaffirmed in all respects. The principal balance and all
amounts in respect of interest, fees, and other amounts payable to or for the
account of Lender shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of (i)
the Existing Loan Agreement with respect to any period (or portion of any
period) ending on or prior to the date of the execution hereof and (ii) this
Agreement with respect to any period (or portion of any period) commencing on or
after the date of the execution hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or
anything to the contrary herein contained, nothing herein shall be deemed to
limit or terminate any of Lender's rights under the Existing Loan Agreement.
6.2 Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable provisions
of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement or the Existing
Loan Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in the
Term Notes, the provision contained in the Term Notes shall govern and control.
6.3 Entire Agreement. The Existing Loan Agreement as amended by this Agreement
and the Term Notes constitute the complete agreement between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, supersede all prior
agreements, commitments, understandings, or inducements (either oral or written,
expressed or implied) and may not be modified, altered, or amended except by a
written agreement signed by Lender and Borrower as applicable. Each party to
this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, or agreements,
oral or otherwise, have been made by any party, or anyone acting on behalf of
such party, which are not embodied herein, and no other agreement, statement or
promise not contained in either the Existing Loan Agreement as amended by this
Agreement or the Term Notes shall be valid or binding. The parties hereto have
had an opportunity to consult with their respective attorneys concerning the
meaning and the import of this Agreement and each has read this Agreement, as
signified by their signatures below, and is executing the same for the purposes
and consideration herein expressed.
6.4 No Waiver. Neither Lender's failure, at any time or times, to require strict
performance by Borrower of any provision of the Term Notes, nor Lender's failure
to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power, or privilege under
this Agreement or the Existing Loan Agreement shall (a) waive, affect, or
diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance therewith or (b) operate as a waiver thereof. Any suspension or
waiver of a Default, Event of Default, or other provision under the Term Notes
or the Existing Loan Agreement as amended by this Agreement must be in writing
signed by Lender to be effective and shall not suspend, waive, or affect any
other Default or Event of Default, whether the same is prior or subsequent
thereto and whether of the same or of a different type, and shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy that Lender would otherwise have had
on any future occasion.

confirmation report) at the address or number designated below (if delivered on

writing or not, and to the sale, assignment and transfer of any or all of its
right, title or interest in and to the Term Loan, the Term Notes and the

conflicts of laws, except to the extent that federal law may apply.
5.8. Partial Invalidity. Each part of this Agreement is intended to be
separate. If any term, covenant, condition or provision hereof is illegal or
invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, such illegality, invalidity
or unenforceability shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of
the remaining parts of this Agreement and all such remaining parts hereto shall
not be impaired or invalidated in any way, but shall be legal, valid and
enforceable and have full force and effect as if the illegal, invalid,
unenforceable part has not been included.

necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs, and necessary
disbursements from the offending party, in addition to any other relief to which
it may be entitled.
5.13 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the
date hereof, at the request of Lender, and without further consideration,
