2.1 Credit Extensions. Borrower promises to pay to Bank, in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by Bank to Borrower, together with interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof.

(a) Revolving Advances.

(i) Amount. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement (1) Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the Committed Revolving Line, and (2) 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.

(ii) Form of Request. 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 C. Bank is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of 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 be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section 2.1(a) to Borrower’s deposit account.

(b) Borrowing Base Advances.

(i) Amount. If no availability exists under the Committed Revolving Line, then (1) Borrower may request Borrowing Base Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of (A) the Borrowing Base Line or (B) the Borrowing Base, and (2) amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Borrowing Base Advances under this Section 2.1(b) shall be immediately due and payable.

(ii) Form of Request. Whenever Borrower desires a Borrowing Base 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 Borrowing Base Advance is to be made. Each such notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form of Exhibit C. Bank is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in Bank’s discretion such Borrowing Base 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 be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount of Borrowing Base Advances made under this Section 2.1(b) to Borrower’s deposit account.

(i) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank agrees to make advances (each an “Equipment Advance” and, collectively, the “Equipment Advances”) to Borrower at any time from the date hereof through the Equipment Advance Availability End Date.

And Bank may advance up to 30% of the aggregate amount of outstanding Equipment Advances as Software Equipment Advances; provided, however, that each Software Equipment Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000. Each Equipment Advance shall not exceed 100% of the invoice amount of equipment and software approved by Bank from time to time (which Borrower shall, in any case, have purchased within 60 days of the date of the corresponding Equipment Advance), excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts, installation expense, and other such soft costs.

(ii) At the time of each Hardware Advance, the aggregate of the then outstanding principal balance of the Hardware Advances, if

any, shall be added to the new Hardware Advance and the total aggregate balance of both shall be payable in equal monthly installments, including all accrued interest thereon, on the last day of each month commencing on the first (1st) full calendar month following the initial advance and each such subsequent advance hereunder and continuing on the last day of each succeeding month until the Equipment Maturity Date, at which time all amounts due in connection with the Hardware Advances made under this Section 2.1(c) and any other amounts due under this Agreement shall be immediately due and payable.

(iii) Interest on each Software Equipment Advance shall begin to accrue on the funding date of the relevant Software Equipment Advance. Each Software Equipment Advance shall be payable in eighteen (18) equal monthly principal installments, plus all accrued interest, beginning on the date that is one month after such Software Equipment Advance is funded and continuing on the same day of each subsequent month thereafter (or on the last day of the month if the date of funding was on the 31^st day of any month) through the date that is 18 months after such Software Equipment Advance funding date.

(iv) Equipment Advances may not be prepaid. Any Equipment Advance or portion thereof, once repaid may not be reborrowed.

(v) When Borrower desires to obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower shall notify Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) by facsimile transmission to be received no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time one Business Day before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made.

(d) Letter of Credit.

(i) Bank issued for the account of Borrower a standby letter of credit (ID No. 569842), with a maturity date of November 30, 2002 (“Letter of Credit”). On each and every L/C Commitment Reduction Date, Bank shall reduce the L/C Commitment in such amount and the stated amount of the Letter of Credit shall reduce, per the terms of the Letter of Credit, to an amount not greater than the L/C Commitment as reduced and in effect on such date. Borrower will pay any standard fees that Bank notifies Borrower will be charged for processing the Letter of Credit.

(ii) Borrower agrees to grant and pledge to Bank a continuing security interest in the Second TCD to secure prompt repayment of the Letter of Credit. Such security interest shall constitute a valid, first priority security interest in the Second TCD, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in accrued interest or proceeds therefrom. Notwithstanding any

termination, Bank’s Lien on the Second TCD shall remain in effect for so long as the Letter of Credit is outstanding.
