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 2:00 p.m.
California 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.
2.4. FEES. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:
(a) FACILITY FEES. On account of the Revolving Facility,
Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to 0.375 percent per annum of the
difference between the Revolving Committed Line and the average daily
outstanding
balance in a fiscal quarter under the Revolving Committed Line, which fee shall
be payable within five (5) days of the last day of such fiscal quarter. On
account of the Term Facility, Borrower shall pay Bank a fee equal to Twenty Five
Thousand Dollars ($25,000), which fee shall be payable as a condition to
Borrower's requesting the Term Loan.
(b) BANK EXPENSES. On the Closing Date, an amount equal to
the Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses)
incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Loan
Documents and, after the Closing date, all Bank Expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in the enforcement of this
Agreement, as and when they become due.
2.5. CONVERSION/CONTINUATION OF EXTENSIONS.
(a) Borrower may from time to time submit in writing a
request that Prime Rate Extensions be converted to LIBOR Rate Extensions or
that any existing LIBOR Rate Extensions continue for an additional Interest
Period. Such request shall specify the amount of the Prime Rate Extensions
which will constitute LIBOR Rate Extensions (subject to the limits set forth
below) and the Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Rate
Extensions. Each written request for a conversion to a LIBOR Rate Extension
or a continuation of a LIBOR Rate Extension shall be substantially in the
form of a Libor Rate Conversion/Continuation Certificate as set forth on
EXHIBIT B-2, which shall be duly executed by a Responsible Officer. Subject
to the terms and conditions contained herein, three (3) Business Days after
Bank's receipt of such a request from Borrower, such Prime Rate Extensions
shall be converted to LIBOR Rate Extensions or such LIBOR Rate Extensions
shall continue, as the case may be provided that:
(i) no Event of Default or event which with notice or
passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default exists;
(ii) no party hereto shall have sent any notice of
termination of the Agreement;
(iii) Borrower shall have complied with such reasonable
and customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for
Borrower's requests for LIBOR Rate Extensions; and
(iv) the amount of a LIBOR Rate Extension shall be
$1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $500,000.
Any request by Borrower to convert Prime Rate Extensions to LIBOR Rate
Extensions or continue any existing LIBOR Rate Extensions shall be irrevocable.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Bank shall not be
required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank
market or other applicable LIBOR Rate market to fund any LIBOR Rate Extensions,
but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Bank had purchased such
deposits to fund the LIBOR Rate Extensions.
(b) Any LIBOR Rate Extensions shall automatically convert to
Prime Rate Extensions upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period,
unless Bank has received and approved a complete and proper request to
continue such LIBOR Rate Extension at least three (3) Business Days prior to
such last day in accordance with the terms hereof. Any LIBOR Rate Extensions
shall, at Bank's option, convert to Prime Rate Extensions on the last day of
the applicable Interest Period in the event that an Event of Default shall
exist.
2.6. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS/PROVISIONS REGARDING LIBOR RATE EXTENSIONS.
(a) If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory
prepayment or acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal
amount of a LIBOR Rate Extension prior to the last day of the Interest Period
for such LIBOR Rate Extension, Borrower shall on demand by Bank, pay Bank the
amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which would have been
payable on the amount so received had it not been received until the last day
of such Interest Period or term exceeds (ii) the interest which would have
been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the
London Dollar interbank markets for a period starting on the date on which it
was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period. Bank's
determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Borrower shall pay to Bank, upon demand by Bank, from
time to time such amounts as Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary to
compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are
attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank
hereunder in respect of any Credit Extensions relating thereto (such
increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called
"Additional Costs"), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change that:
(i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts
payable to Bank under this Agreement in respect of any Credit Extensions
(other than changes which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall
net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office
or its lending office); or
(ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or
similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of,
or any deposits with or other liabilities of Bank (including any Credit
Extensions or any deposits referred to in the definition of "LIBOR Base Rate"
other than those reflected in the calculation of the Reserve Requirement); or
(iii) imposes any other material condition affecting this
Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).
Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date of the Agreement
that will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this section as promptly as
practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such
compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be liable for any Additional
Costs which relate to a period more than 90 days prior to the giving of such
notices by Bank. Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the
basis and a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of each request by
Bank for compensation under this Section 2.6. Determinations and allocations by
Bank for purposes of this Section 2.6 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on
its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Credit Extensions or of making
or maintaining Credit Extensions or on amounts receivable by it in respect of
Credit Extensions, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank in
respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(c) Borrower shall pay to Bank, upon the request of Bank,
such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the sole good faith opinion
of Bank) to compensate it for any reasonable loss, costs or expense incurred
by it as a result of any failure by Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Rate Extension
on the date for such borrowing specified in the relevant notice of borrowing
hereunder.
(d) If Bank shall determine that the adoption or
implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation or treaty regarding
capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation
or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof,
or compliance by Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any respect or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law)
of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have
the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or
entity controlling Bank (a "Parent") as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after
demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate Bank for such reduction, other than amounts which relate
to a period more than 90 days prior to the making of such demand by Bank. A
statement of Bank claiming
compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.
(e) If at any time Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion,
determines that: (i) the amount of the LIBOR Rate Extensions for periods
equal to the corresponding Interest Periods or any other period are not
available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) the
LIBOR Rate does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR
Rate Extension, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower, and
upon the giving of such notice Bank's obligation to make the LIBOR Rate
Extensions shall be suspended until such conditions no longer exist, unless
Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to
LIBOR Rate Extensions. If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to
fund or maintain any LIBOR Rate Extensions, upon demand by Bank, Borrower
shall prepay the LIBOR Rate Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon
(including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such
prepayment pursuant to Section 2.6(a)).
2.7. TERM. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date
and, subject to Section 12.7, shall continue in full force and effect for so
long as any Obligations are outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank
shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions
under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default. Notwithstanding termination,
Bank's Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any
Obligations are outstanding.

4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.
4.1 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower hereby grants and pledges to
Bank a continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter
acquired or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and
all Obligations and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each
of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Such security interest
shall constitute a valid, first priority security interest in the presently
existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security
interest in Collateral acquired after the date hereof, subject to Permitted
Liens. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the
Collateral include, and Borrower shall not be deemed to have granted a
security interest in (i) any of Borrower's rights or interests in any
license, contract or agreement to which Borrower is a party
or any of its rights or interests thereunder to the extent, but only to the
extent, that such a grant would, under the terms of such license, contract or
agreement or otherwise, result in a breach of the terms of, or constitute a
default under any license, contract or agreement to which Borrower is a party
(other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective
pursuant to Section 9-318(4) of the Code or any other applicable law (including
the Bankruptcy Code) or principles of equity); PROVIDED that immediately upon
the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such provision, the Collateral
shall include, and Borrower shall be deemed to have granted a security interest
in, all such rights and interests as if such provision had never been in effect.
4.2 DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED. Borrower shall from
time to time execute and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all
Negotiable Collateral, all financing statements and other documents that Bank
may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue
perfected Bank's security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully
consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.
4.3 RIGHT TO INSPECT. Bank (through any of its officers, employees, or
agents) shall have the right at Borrower' expense (not to exceed $3,000 per
annum, as long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing)
upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time during Borrower's usual
business hours, to inspect Borrower's Books and to make copies thereof and to
check, test, and audit and appraise the Collateral in order to verify
Borrower's financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other
matter relating to, the Collateral.

ownership of property requires that it be so qualified in which the failure
to so qualify could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.2 DUE AUTHORIZATION; NO CONFLICT. The execution, delivery, and
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 Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, nor
will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement to
which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in
default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound,
which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.3 NO PRIOR ENCUMBRANCES. Borrower has good and marketable title to the
Collateral, free and clear of Liens, except for Permitted Liens.
5.4 BONA FIDE ACCOUNTS. The Accounts are bona fide existing obligations.

to and unconditional acceptance (subject to warranties) by the account debtor.

all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from all material
defects, except for Inventory for which adequate reserves have been made.

of the Intellectual Property Collateral, except for non-exclusive licenses
granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Each
of the Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual
Property Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part, and to Borrower's knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of
the Intellectual Property Collateral violates the rights of any third party,
which violation could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in the Schedule, no part of
the Intellectual Property Collateral is subject to any agreement restricting the
transfer thereof or the grant of a security interest therein. The Copyrights,
Patents and Trademarks listed on the Exhibits to the Intellectual Property
Security Agreement constitute all of the intellectual property necessary to
sell, license or distribute all of Borrower's products in the ordinary course of
business. The Schedule lists all of the material licenses, contracts and
agreements as to which Borrower's rights are excluded from the Collateral
pursuant to Section 4.1.
5.8 LITIGATION. Except as set forth in the Schedule, there are no
actions or proceedings pending by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary
before any court or administrative agency in which an adverse decision could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or a material

Collateral. Borrower does not have knowledge of any such pending or
threatened actions or proceedings.
5.9 NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. All consolidated
financial statements related to Borrower and its Subsidiaries that are
delivered by Borrower to Bank fairly present in all material respects

statements submitted to Bank, other than as set forth in the Schedule.
5.10 SOLVENCY, PAYMENT OF DEBTS. Borrower is solvent and able to pay its
debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
5.11 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. Borrower has met the minimum funding
requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit plans subject to
ERISA. No event has occurred resulting from Borrower's failure to comply with
ERISA that is reasonably likely to result in Borrower's incurring any
liability that could have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower is not an
"investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940. Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of the important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing
or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of any regulations promulgated
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). Borrower has
complied with all the provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
Borrower has not violated any statutes, laws, ordinances or rules applicable
to it, violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

has ever been used by Borrower or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by
previous owners or operators, in the disposal of, or to produce, store,
handle, treat, release, or transport, any hazardous waste or hazardous
substance other than in accordance with applicable law; to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, none of Borrower's properties or assets has ever been

no lien arising under any environmental protection statute has attached to
any revenues or to any real or personal property owned by Borrower; and
Borrower has not received a summons, citation, notice, or directive from the
Environmental Protection Agency or any other federal, state or other
governmental agency concerning any action or omission by Borrower resulting
in the releasing, or otherwise disposing of hazardous waste or hazardous
substances into the environment.
5.13 TAXES. Borrower has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns
required to be filed, and has paid, or has made adequate provision for the
payment of, all taxes reflected therein, except for taxes which are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and reserved against (to
the extent required by GAAP) by Borrower.
5.14 SUBSIDIARIES. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest
or other equity securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments.
5.15 GOVERNMENT CONSENTS. Borrower has obtained all material consents,
approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and
given all notices to, all governmental authorities that
are necessary for the continued operation of Borrower's business as currently
conducted, the failure to obtain which could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
5.16 YEAR 2000. Borrower has reviewed the areas within its operations and
business which could be adversely affected by, and has developed or is
developing a program to address on a timely basis, the Year 2000 Problem.
Based on such review and program, the Year 2000 Problem is not expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect upon its financial condition, operations or
business as now conducted. "Year 2000 Problem" means the possibility that any
computer applications or equipment used by Borrower may be unable to
recognize and properly perform date sensitive functions involving certain
dates prior to and any dates on or after December 31, 1999.
5.17 FULL DISCLOSURE. No representation, warranty or other statement
made by Borrower in any certificate or written statement furnished to Bank
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained in such certificates
or statements not misleading.
6. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.
Borrower covenants and agrees that, until payment in full of all
outstanding Obligations, and for so long as Bank may have any commitment to make
a Credit Extension hereunder, Borrower shall do all of the following:
6.1 GOOD STANDING. Borrower shall maintain its and each of its material
Subsidiaries' corporate existence in its jurisdiction of incorporation and
maintain qualification in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so
qualify could reasonably by expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

in force all licenses, approvals and agreements, the loss of which could
reasonably by expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
6.2 GOVERNMENT COMPLIANCE. Borrower shall meet, and shall cause each
Subsidiary to meet, the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to
any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. Borrower shall comply, and shall
cause each Subsidiary to comply, with all statutes, laws, ordinances and
government rules and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with
which could reasonably by expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or a
material adverse effect on the Collateral or the priority of Bank's Lien on
the Collateral.
6.3 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, REPORTS, CERTIFICATES. Borrower shall deliver

each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank and certified by
a Responsible Officer.
6.4 INVENTORY; RETURNS. Borrower shall keep all Inventory in good and
marketable condition, free from all material defects except for Inventory for
which adequate reserves have been made. Returns and allowances, if any, as
between Borrower and its account debtors shall be on the same basis and in
accordance with the usual customary practices of Borrower, as they exist at
the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Borrower shall
promptly notify Bank of all returns and recoveries and of all disputes and
claims, where the return, recovery, dispute or claim involves more than One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

maintain insurance relating to Borrower's ownership and use of the Collateral
in amounts and of a type that are customary to businesses similar to
Borrower's. All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with such
companies, and in such amounts as are reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All
such policies of property insurance shall contain a Bank's loss payable
endorsement, in a form satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an additional
loss payee thereof and all liability insurance policies shall show the Bank
as an additional insured, and shall specify that the insurer must give at
least twenty (20) days notice to Bank before canceling its policy for any
reason. Upon Bank's request, Borrower shall deliver to Bank certified copies
of such policies of insurance and evidence of the payments of all premiums
therefor. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, all proceeds payable under any such policy that are not used to
repair or replace the property insured shall, at the option of Bank, be
payable to Bank to be applied on account of the Obligations.
6.7 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. Borrower shall perform all acts reasonably
necessary to ensure that Borrower and its Subsidiaries become Year 2000
Compliant in a timely manner. Such acts shall include, without limitation,
performing a comprehensive review and assessment of all Borrower's
systems and adopting a detailed plan, with itemized budget, for the
remediation, monitoring and testing of such systems. As used in this
paragraph, "Year 2000 Compliant" shall mean, in regard to any entity, that
all software, hardware, firmware, equipment, goods or systems utilized by or
material to the business operations or financial condition of such entity,
will properly perform date sensitive functions before, during and after the
year 2000. Borrower shall immediately upon request, provide to Bank such
certifications or other evidence of Borrower's compliance with the terms of
this paragraph as Bank may from time to time reasonably require.
6.8 REGISTRATION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
(a) Borrower shall register or cause to be registered on an
expedited basis (to the extent not already registered) with the United States
Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as
applicable, those intellectual property rights listed on Exhibits A, B and C
to the Intellectual Property Security Agreement delivered to Bank by Borrower
in connection with this Agreement within thirty (30) days of the date of this
Agreement. Borrower shall, on an expedited basis, register or cause to be
registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United
States Copyright Office, as applicable, and notify Bank of, all registerable
intellectual property rights which constitute or give rise to more than five
percent (5%) of Borrower's gross income in any given month which Borrower has
developed as of the date of this Agreement but heretofore failed to register
and give Bank notice thereof. Borrower shall register or cause to be
registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United
States Copyright Office, as applicable, and notify Bank of those additional
intellectual property rights which constitute or give rise to more than five
percent (5%) of Borrower's gross income in any given month which are
developed or acquired by Borrower from time to time in connection with any
product prior to the sale or licensing of such product to any third party and
prior to Borrower's use of such product (including without limitation major
revisions or additions to the intellectual property rights listed on such
Exhibits A, B and C) and shall give Bank notice thereof.
(b) Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional instruments
and documents from time to time as Bank shall reasonably request to perfect
Bank's security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral.
(c) Borrower shall (i) protect, defend and maintain the validity
and enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights, (ii) use its
best efforts to detect infringements of the Trademarks, Patents and
Copyrights and promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements
detected and (iii) not allow any material Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights
to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the written
consent of Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) Bank may audit Borrower's Intellectual Property Collateral to
confirm compliance with this Section 0, provided such audit may not occur

9. BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.
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:
(a) 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);
(b) 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;
(c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account
debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably
considers advisable;
(d) 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, in
order to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law,
in equity, or otherwise;
(e) 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;
(f) 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 except to
the extent such license would result in a breach of such agreement;
(g) 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, and apply any proceeds to the
Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate;
(h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.
9.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. 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) if an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, endorse Borrower's name on any
checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank's
possession; (c) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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) if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, dispose of any Collateral; (e) if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, make, settle, and adjust all
claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower's policies of insurance;
and (f) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 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. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to a Borrower of Bank's
security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. After
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, 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 a 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 Revolving Facility 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. Except as provided under the Code,
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.
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.
10. NOTICES.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by
any party relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in
connection herewith shall be in writing and (except for financial statements and
other informational documents which may be sent by first-class mail, postage
prepaid) shall be personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight

the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of
conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the
state and Federal courts located in the County of Los Angeles and the County of
Santa Xxxxx, State of California. BORROWER AND BANK HEREBY WAIVE THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR
