Exhibit B Annex 1
FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED LINE OF CREDIT NOTE
$15,000,000 Pasadena, California
July 29, 1998
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, anDATAco of California, Inc., a
California corporation ("Borrower"), promises to pay to the order of XXXXX FARGO
BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ("Bank") at its office at 000 X. Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, or at such other place as the holder hereof may
designate, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately
available funds, the principal sum of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), or
so much thereof as may be advanced and be outstanding, with interest thereon, to
be computed on each advance from the date of its disbursement (computed on the
basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) either (i) at a fluctuating rate
per annum equal to the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, provided,
however, that during the period commencing August 1, 1998 and ending on the Net
Worth Satisfaction Date (as defined in the First Amendment, as defined below),
all interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate hereunder shall be
computed at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to one half of one percent (.50%)
above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, or (ii) at a fixed rate per
annum determined by Bank to be two and one-half percent (2.5%) above Bank's
LIBOR in effect on the first day of the applicable Fixed Rate Term, provided,
however, that during the period commencing August 1, 1998 and ending on the Net
Worth Satisfaction Date (as defined in the First Amendment, as defined below),
interest on each LIBOR option selected hereunder shall be computed at a fixed
rate per annum determined by Bank to be three percent (3.0%) above Bank's LIBOR
in effect on the first day of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. When interest is
determined in relation to the Prime Rate, each change in the rate of interest
hereunder shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced
within Bank. With respect to each LIBOR option selected hereunder, Bank is
hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount, interest rate and Fixed
Rate Term applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Bank's books and
records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached
to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of
the information noted. This Note amends and restates in its entirety that
certain Line of Credit Note dated April 30, 1998 executed and delivered by
Borrower to the order of Bank in the original principal amount of up to
$15,000,000.00 (the "Prior Note"). Amounts outstanding and committed under the
Prior Note shall, upon the effectiveness of this Note be deemed to be
outstanding and committed hereunder and evidenced hereby, subject, however, to
all terms and conditions hereunder and under the Loan Agreement described below.
A. DEFINITIONS:
As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth
after each:
1. "Business Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any
other day designated as a holiday under Federal or California statute or
regulation.
2. "Fixed Rate Term" means a period commencing on a Business Day
and continuing for one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) months, as designated
by Borrower, during which all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance
of this Note bears interest determined in relation to Bank's LIBOR; provided
however, that (i) no Fixed Rate Term may be selected for a principal
-1-
8
amount less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); (ii) no Fixed Rate Term shall
extend beyond the scheduled maturity date hereof; (iii) no Fixed Rate Term may
be selected during the continuance of an Event of Default (as such term is
defined in the Loan Agreement described below); and (iv) no more than eight (8)
Fixed Rate Terms may be in existence at any time. If any Fixed Rate Term would
end on a day which is not a Business Day, then such Fixed Rate Term shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day.
3. "LIBOR" means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary,
to the nearest whole 1/8 of 1%) and determined pursuant to the following
formula:
Base LIBOR
LIBOR = -------------------------------
100% - LIBOR Reserve Percentage
(a) "Base LIBOR" means the rate per annum for United States dollar
deposits quoted by Bank as the Inter-Bank Market Offered Rate, with the
understanding that such rate is quoted by Bank for the purpose of calculating
effective rates of interest for loans making reference thereto, on the first day
of a Fixed Rate Term for delivery of funds on said date for a period of time
approximately equal to the number of days in such Fixed Rate Term and in an
amount approximately equal to the principal amount to which such Fixed Rate Term
applies. Borrower understands and agrees that Bank may base its quotation of the
Inter-Bank Market Offered Rate upon such offers or other market indicators of
the Inter-Bank Market as Bank in its discretion deems appropriate including, but
not limited to, the rate offered for U.S. dollar deposits on the London
Inter-Bank Market.
(b) "LIBOR Reserve Percentage" means the reserve percentage
prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any
successor) for "Eurocurrency Liabilities" (as defined in Regulation D of the
Federal Reserve Board, as amended), adjusted by Bank for expected changes in
such reserve percentage during the applicable Fixed Rate Term.
4. "Prime Rate" means at any time the rate of interest most
recently announced within Bank at its principal office in San Francisco as its
Prime Rate, with the understanding that the Prime Rate is one of Bank's base
rates and serves as the basis upon which effective rates of interest are
calculated for those loans making reference thereto, and is evidenced by the
recording thereof after its announcement in such internal publication or
publications as Bank may designate.
B. INTEREST:
1. Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be
payable on the first (1st) day of each month, commencing August 1, 1998 and on
the last day of each Fixed Rate Term.
2. Selection of Interest Rate Options. At any time any portion of
this Note bears interest determined in relation to Bank's LIBOR, it may be
continued by Borrower at the end of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto so
that all or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Prime
Rate or in relation to Bank's LIBOR for a new Fixed Rate Term designated by
Borrower. At any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in
relation to the Prime Rate, Borrower may convert all or a portion thereof so
that it bears interest determined in relation to Bank's LIBOR for a Fixed Rate
Term designated by Borrower. At the time each advance is requested hereunder or
Borrower wishes to select the LIBOR option for all or a portion of the
outstanding principal balance hereof, and at the end of each Fixed Rate Term,
Borrower shall give Bank notice specifying (a) the interest rate option selected
by Borrower, (b) the principal amount subject thereto, and (c) if the LIBOR
option is selected, the length of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. Any such
notice may be given by telephone so long as, with respect to each LIBOR
selection, (i) Bank receives written confirmation from Borrower not later than
three (3) Business Days after
-2-
9
such telephone notice is given, and (ii) such notice is given to Bank prior to
10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day of the Fixed Rate Term. For each
LIBOR option requested hereunder, Bank will quote the applicable fixed rate to
Borrower at approximately 10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day of the
Fixed Rate Term. If Borrower does not immediately accept the rate quoted by
Bank, any subsequent acceptance by Borrower shall be subject to a
redetermination by Bank of the applicable fixed rate; provided however, that if
Borrower fails to accept any such rate by 11:00 a.m., California time, on the
Business Day such quotation is given, then the quoted rate shall expire and Bank
shall have no obligation to permit a LIBOR option to be selected on such day. If
no specific designation of interest is made at the time any advance is requested
hereunder or at the end of any Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall be deemed to have
made a Prime Rate interest selection for such advance or the principal amount to
which such Fixed Rate Term applied.
3. Additional LIBOR Provisions.
(a) If Bank at any time shall determine that for any reason adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Bank's LIBOR, then Bank shall
promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. If such notice is given and until such
notice has been withdrawn by Bank, then (i) no new LIBOR option may be selected
by Borrower, and (ii) any portion of the outstanding principal balance hereof
which bears interest determined in relation to Bank's LIBOR, subsequent to the
end of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto, shall bear interest determined in
relation to the Prime Rate.
(b) If any law, treaty, rule, regulation or determination of a court
or governmental authority or any change therein or in the interpretation or
application thereof (each, a "Change in Law") shall make it unlawful for Bank
(i) to make LIBOR options available hereunder, or (ii) to maintain interest
rates based on Bank's LIBOR, then in the former event, any obligation of Bank to
make available such unlawful LIBOR options shall immediately be cancelled, and
in the latter event, any such unlawful LIBOR-based interest rates then
outstanding shall be converted, at Bank's option, so that interest on the
portion of the outstanding principal balance subject thereto is determined in
relation to the Prime Rate; provided however, that if any such Change in Law
shall permit any LIBOR-based interest rates to remain in effect until the
expiration of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto, then such permitted
LIBOR-based interest rates shall continue in effect until the expiration of such
Fixed Rate Term. Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, Borrower
shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand such amounts as may be necessary to
compensate Bank for any fines, fees, charges, penalties or other costs incurred
or payable by Bank as a result thereof and which are attributable to any LIBOR
options made available to Borrower hereunder, and any reasonable allocation made
by Bank among its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.
(c) If any Change in Law or compliance by Bank with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or
other governmental authority shall:
(i) subject Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to
any LIBOR options, or change the basis of taxation of payments
to Bank of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable
hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall
net income of Bank); or
(ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by,
deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances
or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds by any office of
Bank; or
(iii) impose on Bank any other condition;
-3-
10
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of
making, renewing or maintaining any LIBOR options hereunder and/or to reduce any
amount receivable by Bank in connection therewith, then in any such case,
Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand such amounts as may be
necessary to compensate Bank for any additional costs incurred by Bank and/or
reductions in amounts received by Bank which are attributable to such LIBOR
options. In determining which costs incurred by Bank and/or reductions in
amounts received by Bank are attributable to any LIBOR options made available to
Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations
shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.
4. Default Interest. During the continuance of an Event of Default,
the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest until paid in
full at an increased rate per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year,
actual days elapsed) equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest from
time to time applicable to this Note.
C. BORROWING AND REPAYMENT:
1. Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during
the term of this Note borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding
borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and
conditions of this Note and of any document executed in connection with or
governing this Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings
under this Note shall not at any time exceed the principal amount stated above.
The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total
amounts advanced hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal
payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed hereon
from time to time by the holder. The outstanding principal balance of this Note
shall be due and payable in full on April 30, 2001.
2. Advances. Advances hereunder, to the total amount of the
principal sum stated above, may be made by the holder at the oral or written
request of (a) Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, W. Xxxxx Xxxxx or Xxxxxx Ravine, any one
acting alone, who are authorized to request advances and direct the disposition
of any advances until written notice of the revocation of such authority is
received by the holder at the office designated above, or (b) any person, with
respect to advances deposited to the credit of any account of Borrower with the
holder, which advances, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to
have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower regardless of the fact that
persons other than those authorized to request advances may have authority to
draw against such account. The holder shall have no obligation to determine
whether any person requesting an advance is or has been authorized by Borrower.
3. Application of Payments. Each payment made on this Note shall be
credited first, to any interest then due and second, to the outstanding
principal balance hereof. All payments credited to principal shall be applied
first, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest
determined in relation to the Prime Rate, if any, and second, to the outstanding
principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to
Bank's LIBOR, with such payments applied to the oldest Fixed Rate Term first.
4. Prepayment.
(a) Prime Rate. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this
Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate at any time,
in any amount and without penalty.
(b) LIBOR. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note
which bears interest determined in relation to Bank's LIBOR at any time and in
the minimum amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); provided however, that
if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than
said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be the entire
-4-
11
outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this
prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become
due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the Fixed Rate Term
applicable thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank
immediately upon demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly
differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in
which such Fixed Rate Term matures, calculated as follows for each such month:
(i) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each
month on the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to
such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of
the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto.
(ii) Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of
interest which would have accrued for the same month on the
amount prepaid for the remaining term of such Fixed Rate Term at
Bank's LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans
made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount
prepaid.
(iii) If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than
zero, discount that difference by Bank's LIBOR used in (ii)
above.
Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank
incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it is
difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or
liabilities. Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described prepayment
fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the
prepayment costs, expenses and/or liabilities of Bank. If Borrower fails to pay
any prepayment fee when due, the amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter
bear interest until paid at a rate per annum two percent (2%) above the Prime
Rate in effect from time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year,
actual days elapsed).
D. EVENTS OF DEFAULT:
This Note is made pursuant to and is subject to the terms and conditions
of that certain Loan Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as of April 30,
1998, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Loan Agreement dated as of
July 29, 1998 (the "First Amendment"), and as further amended from time to time
(the "Loan Agreement"). Any default in the payment or performance of any
obligation under this Note, or any defined event of default under the Loan
Agreement, shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Note.
E. MISCELLANEOUS:
1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
holder of this Note, at the holder's option, may declare all sums of principal
and interest outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly
waived by Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder to extend any
further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate. Borrower shall
pay to the holder immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments,
advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees (to
include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of the holder's in-house
counsel), incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the
holder's rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to the
holder under this Note, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way
related to this Note, including without limitation,
-5-
12
any action for declaratory relief, and including any of the foregoing incurred
in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding relating to Borrower.

accordance with the laws of the State of California.
