LOAN AGREEMENT
This LOAN AGREEMENT (the "Loan Agreement" or "Agreement") is made and entered
into effective this 30th day of September, 1999 by and between FIRSTAR BANK,
N.A., a national banking corporation (the "Bank"), and PINNACLE DATA SYSTEMS,
INC. (the "Company" or "Borrower").
SECTION 1. THE LOAN(S).
1.1 THE REVOLVING LOAN. From the date hereof until September 30, 2000 (the
"Revolving Loan Maturity Date"), the Bank agrees to make loans and advances to
the Company on a revolving basis for the purpose of short-term working capital
up to the sum of $2,000,000.00, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement (the "Revolving Loan"); provided, however, that the Bank shall have no
obligation to advance or readvance any sums pursuant hereto at any time when
there exists any set of facts or circumstances which, by themselves or upon
giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of
Default under this Agreement. The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by and
repayment thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of a promissory
note of even date herewith (the "Revolving Note") or by one or more promissory
notes agreed upon by the parties hereto in substitution or partial substitution
therefor in favor of the Bank.
1.2 THE TERM LOAN. The Bank made a term loan to the Company in the amount
of $300,000.00 on January 20, 1998, which the Bank and the Company agree, shall
be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (the "Term Loan"). The
Term Loan is evidenced by and repayment thereof shall be made in accordance with
the terms of a promissory note dated January 20, 1998 or by one or more
promissory notes agreed upon by the parties hereto in substitution or partial
substitution therefor in favor of the Bank (the "Term Note"). The principal
balance of the Term Loan shall be repaid in monthly installments of $5,000.00,
with the remaining principal balance and accrued interest thereon paid in full
on January 31, 2003. The Revolving Loan and the Term Loan shall be collectively
referred to herein as the "Loans".
1.3 REVOLVING LOAN INTEREST RATE. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank monthly
interest on the unpaid balance of the Revolving Loan at a variable rate of
interest (the "Prime Rate") equal to the Prime Rate of Bank from time to time in
effect. Each change in the Prime Rate automatically and immediately changes the
interest rate on the Revolving Loan without notice to Borrower. "Prime Rate" as
used herein shall mean the rate published by Bank from time to time as its Prime
Rate based on its consideration of economic, money market, business and
competitive factors, and it is not necessarily Bank's most favored rate. The
Prime Rate is currently 8.25%. Interest shall be calculated on a three hundred
sixty (360) day year basis and shall be based on the actual number of days that
elapse during the interest calculation period.
1.4 AVAILABILITY. Under the Revolving Loan the Borrower may borrow, repay,
and reborrow up to the lesser of: a) Eighty percent [80%] of Borrower's Eligible
Accounts Receivable; PLUS Fifteen percent [15%] of Borrower's Eligible
Components Inventory PLUS Thirty percent [30%] of Borrower's Eligible
Peripherals Inventory PLUS Forty percent [40%] of Borrower's Eligible Finished
Goods Inventory (the sum of which is the "Eligible Inventory") up to a maximum
Eligible Inventory advance of the lesser of $750,000 or 50% of the outstanding
balance on the Revolving Loan; MINUS the outstanding balance on the Term Loan;
or b) $2,000,000.00. The lesser of the amount computed in a) and the amount
shown in b) shall be called the "Amount Available". Should the total loan amount
outstanding at any time exceed the Amount Available, the Borrower shall, upon
notification, reduce the amount outstanding to an amount that is less than or
equal to the Amount Available. Advances under the Revolving Loan must be
requested in amounts of $25,000 or greater.
"Eligible Accounts Receivable" shall mean accounts receivable acceptable to
the Bank originating from the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of
business and outstanding less than ninety [90] days from the date of
invoice, MINUS the aggregate accounts receivable of any individual customer
if more than twenty-five percent [25%] of that customer's accounts
receivable is greater than 90 days from the date of invoice; MINUS accounts
receivable arising from a contract with the United States Government not
supported by an acceptable assignment of claim; MINUS accounts receivable
subject to a contra payable account; MINUS accounts receivable
2
arising from a customer whose mailing address or executive office is
located outside the United States and is not supported by a letter of
credit acceptable to the Bank.
"Eligible Components Inventory", "Eligible Peripherals Inventory" and
"Eligible Finished Goods Inventory" shall mean product code subsets PDC1,
PDC5 and FGS, respectively, as accounted for in the Company's perpetual
inventory system. Eligible Inventory shall exclude: (i) capitalized labor
and overhead and (ii) Eligible Inventory not in the physical possession of
the Company or held outside the United States of America.
SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS & WARRANTIES. To induce the Bank to enter into this
Agreement and to agree to make the loans described in Section 1 hereof (the
"Loans"), the Borrower represents and warrants that:
2.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE. Borrower is a corporation duly existing under the
laws of the State of Ohio, is qualified to do business in all states where
failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect on the Borrower
and has all requisite power and authority to own its property and carry on its
business as now being conducted.
2.2 BORROWING AUTHORIZATION. The execution by the Borrower and the delivery
and performance of this Agreement, the Note(s), and other documents connected to
the loans described herein have been authorized by necessary corporate action
and will not violate: 1) any provision of law; 2) the Articles of Incorporation
or By-laws of the Borrower; or 3) any agreement binding on the Borrower.
2.3 PURPOSE AND USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loan will be used by
the Borrower to support general working capital requirements.
2.4 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Financial statements of the Borrower dated
December 31, 1998 (a copy of which have been previously furnished to the Bank)
have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied, and fairly represent the financial condition of the
Borrower and its operations as of the date of the statements, and since such
date there has been no material adverse change in its financial condition.
2.5 ACTIONS PENDING. There is no litigation pending or threatened against
or affecting the Borrower before any court or agency, or any contingent
liabilities that are not provided for in the financial statements referred to in
2.4, hereof.
2.6 LIENS. None of the assets of the Borrower are subject to any mortgage,
pledge, security interest, lien, or other encumbrance except for those noted in
the financial statements referred to in 2.4, hereof.
2.7 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. All operations and property of the Borrower are
in full compliance with all federal, state, and local statutes, rules, and
regulations relating to air and water pollutants and hazardous waste disposal.
There is no judicial or administrative proceeding pending or threatened against
or affecting the Borrower with respect to such environmental matters.
2.8 COMPLIANCE. The Borrower is in compliance in all material respects with
all statutes, rules, and regulations applicable to it. No default (or event
which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) exists
under any agreement or instrument for borrowed money to which Borrower is a
party or pursuant to which any property of Borrower is encumbered.
2.9 LIABILITIES. All taxes, assessments, and other liabilities which are
due have been paid in full and in a timely manner, except for those taxes and
assessments which the Borrower is contesting in good faith and with respect to
which the Borrower has taken proper steps to perfect its appeal and which have
not resulted in liens on the Borrower's property which materially diminishes the
value of the property.
2.10 MILLENNIUM COMPLIANCE. Borrower has conducted a thorough review of its
mainframe information systems, PC/LAN systems, software, facilities, machinery
and equipment (collectively "Computer-Related Systems") and have determined the
total costs of becoming Year 2000 Compliant, including, costs related to
remediation, replacement, upgrading, conversion and testing of hardware and
other equipment and software. On the basis of this review, the Borrower has
concluded that the incremental cost to the Borrower of becoming Year 2000
Compliant will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of
the Borrower. Further, Borrower's Computer-Related Systems are Year 2000
Compliant or the Borrower has adequate plans and processes in place
3
sufficient for all of the Borrower's Computer-Related Systems to become Year
2000 Compliant prior to such time that a failure to be Year 2000 Compliant might
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon Borrower's
business, operations, properties or financial condition. For purposes of this
Agreement, "Year 2000 Compliant" means that the Borrower's Computer-Related
Systems (1) will process all dates in and after the Year 2000 in a correct and
consistent manner in all applicable operations including but not limited to
input, output, comparisons (branching) and arithmetic operations (such as the
difference between two dates), (2) use fields providing at least four decimal
digits for the year portion of all stored dates, (3) calculate and handle leap
year dates correctly, and (4) will otherwise generally manipulate data and
generate output and reports in a fault-free manner during and after the Year
2000.
SECTION 3. COLLATERAL. All obligations of the Borrower to the Bank under this
Agreement and the Note(s) shall be secured by the following (collectively called
the "Collateral"):
3.1 A security interest in the Borrower's Accounts, Instruments, Chattel
Paper, Investment Property, Inventory, Equipment, Motor Vehicles, Fixtures, and
General Intangibles as such terms are defined in the Security Agreements, now
owned or hereafter acquired, their proceeds (cash or non-cash) and any insurance
proceeds related thereto;
3.2 An assignment of insurance in the amount of $1,000,000.00 on the life
of Xxxx X. Xxxx.

satisfactory to the Bank, and the Borrower agrees to execute any and all
documents necessary to assure the protection, perfection, and/or enforcement of
the Bank's security interest in the Collateral.
