2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement, and on the terms and conditions set forth below.
2.1.1 Revolving Advances.
(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to deduction of Reserves, Bank shall make Advances not exceeding the Availability Amount. Amounts borrowed hereunder may be repaid and, prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions precedent herein.
(b) Streamline Period. Any period when the sum of Borrower’s unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents, plus eighty five percent (85%) of Eligible Accounts, minus the outstanding principal balance of any Advances, is greater than or equal to Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), Borrower shall be in a “Streamline Period”. Bank may terminate the Streamline Period at any time that the conditions for a Streamline Period no longer exist.
(c) Termination; Repayment. The Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, when the principal amount of all Advances, the unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations relating to the Revolving Line shall be immediately due and payable.
2.1.2 Equipment Advances.
(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Draw Period, Bank shall make advances (each, an “Equipment Advance” and, collectively, “Equipment Advances”) not exceeding the Equipment Line. Equipment Advances may only be used to finance Eligible Equipment purchased within ninety (90) days (determined based upon the applicable invoice date of such Eligible Equipment) before the date of each
Equipment Advance, provided, however, that the proceeds of the first Equipment Advance are made on or within fifteen (15) days of the Effective Date and may be used to purchase Eligible Equipment purchased on or after January 1, 2006 and further provided that the amount of the first Equipment Advance shall be in an amount of not less than Five Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,400,000). No Equipment Advance may exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the total invoice for Eligible Equipment (excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expenses relating to such Eligible Equipment except to the extent such are allowed to be financed pursuant hereto as Other Equipment). Unless otherwise agreed to by Bank, not more than forty percent (40%) of the proceeds of the Equipment Line shall be used to finance Other Equipment. Each Equipment Advance, other than the final Equipment Advance, must be in an amount equal to at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). After repayment, no Equipment Advance may be reborrowed.
(b) Repayment. Each Equipment Advance shall immediately amortize and be payable in thirty six (36) equal payments of principal, plus interest beginning on first day of the first month following the Funding Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all unpaid principal and interest on each Equipment Advance shall be due on the applicable Equipment Line Maturity Date.
(c) Prepayment Upon an Event of Loss. Borrower shall bear the risk of any loss, theft, destruction, or damage of or to the Financed Equipment. If, during the term of this Agreement, any item of Financed Equipment becomes obsolete or is lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond repair, rendered permanently unfit for use, or seized by a Governmental Authority for any reason for a period ending beyond the Equipment Line Maturity Date with respect to such Financed Equipment (an “Event of Loss”), then within ten (10) days following such Event of Loss, Borrower shall (i) pay to Bank on account of the Obligations all accrued interest to the date of the prepayment, plus all outstanding principal owing with respect to the Financed Equipment subject to the Event of Loss; or (ii) if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Borrower’s option, repair or replace any Financed Equipment subject to an Event of Loss provided the repaired or replaced Financed Equipment is of equal or like value to the Financed Equipment subject to an Event of Loss and provided further that Bank has a first priority perfected security interest in such repaired or replaced Financed Equipment. Any partial prepayment of an Equipment Advance paid by Borrower on account of an Event of Loss shall be applied to prepay amounts owing for such Equipment Advance in inverse order of maturity.
(d) Prepayment. At Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Equipment Line advanced by Bank under this Agreement, provided Borrower (a) provides written notice to Bank of its election to exercise to prepay the Equipment Line at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Equipment Line through the date the prepayment is made; (ii) all unpaid principal with respect to the Equipment Line; (iii) a premium equal to the Make-Whole Premium; and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to pay the Make-Whole Premium set forth in subsection (d)(iv) above, if either (A) all Obligations due to Bank under the Equipment Line are prepaid in full prior to December 31, 2007 with proceeds from either (x) a Qualifying Initial Public Offering, or (y) the Eligible
2
Equipment Line Refinancing, or (B) all Obligations due to Bank under the Equipment Line are prepaid in full within ninety (90) days of the applicable Equipment Line Maturity Date with proceeds from the Eligible Refinancing. In addition, if the Obligations are refinanced after an acceleration (or as a result of an acceleration) based solely upon an Event of Default under Section 8.3, Bank shall not require payment of the Make-Whole Premium.
2.2 Overadvances. If at any time or for any reason the total of all outstanding Advances and all other Obligations exceeds the Availability Amount (an “Overadvance”), Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of the excess in cash to Bank, without notice or demand. Without limiting Borrower’s obligation to repay to Bank the amount of any Overadvance, Borrower agrees to pay Bank interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, not paid within five (5) Business Days of demand therefor, at the Default Rate.
2.3 General Provisions Relating to the Advances. In no event shall Borrower maintain at any time LIBOR Advances having more than two (2) different Interest Periods. Borrower shall pay interest accrued on the Advances at the rates and in the manner set forth in Section 2.4(b)(ii).
2.4 Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.
(a) Computation of Interest. Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues, hi computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.
(b) Interest Rate.
(i) Advances. Subject to Section 2.4(c), the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Line shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.4(g) below. As of the Effective Date, the Applicable Interest Rate is set at Level I.
During any Period when: |
Levels: | Applicable Interest Rate : | ||
EBITDA for the trailing 3 month period less than $1.00 | I | Prime Rate plus three quarters of one percent (0.75%) per annum | ||
EBITDA for the trailing 3 month period greater than or equal to $1.00 | II | Prime Rate plus one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum | ||
From and after a Qualifying Initial Public Offering | III | LIBOR Rate, plus 250 basis points per annum. |
3
(ii) Equipment Advances. Subject to Section 2.4(c), outstanding Equipment Advances shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Equipment Interest Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.4(g) below. As of the Effective Date, the Applicable Equipment Interest Rate is set at Level I.
During any Period when: |
Levels: | Applicable Equipment Interest Rate: | ||
EBITDA for the trailing 3 month period less than $1.00 | I | Prime Rate plus one and one quarter percent (1.25%) per annum | ||
EBITDA for the trailing 3 month period greater than $1.00 | II | Prime Rate plus three quarters of one percent (0.75%) per annum | ||
From and after a Qualifying Initial Public Offering | III | LIBOR Rate, plus 300 basis points per annum. |
(iii) The Applicable Interest Rate and the Applicable Equipment Interest Rate in effect as of the Effective Date is Level I. Adjustments to the Applicable Interest Rate and the Applicable Equipment Interest Rate, shall be implemented quarterly on a prospective basis, based upon the Borrower’s EBITDA as reported in the monthly financial statement delivered to Bank pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(iii) hereof. Prior to a Qualifying Initial Public Offering, failure to timely deliver such financial statements shall, in addition to any other remedy provided for in this Agreement, result in an increase in the Applicable Interest Rate and Applicable Equipment Interest Rate to the highest level set forth in the foregoing grids, until the first day of the first calendar quarter following the delivery of the monthly financial statements demonstrating to Bank’s satisfaction that such an increase is not required. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any reduction in the Applicable Interest Rate or the Applicable Equipment Interest Rate is to be implemented, that reduction shall be deferred until the first day of the first calendar quarter following the date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing by Bank. Subject to Section 2.4(c), at all times from and after a Qualifying Initial Public Offering, the Applicable Interest Rate and Applicable Equipment Interest Rate shall be at Level III.
(c) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is four percentage points (4.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). With respect to any Obligations accruing interest at the LIBOR Rate, on and after the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Advance outstanding on the date of occurrence of an Event of Default or acceleration of the Obligations, the Effective Amount of such LIBOR Advance shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at the Default Rate. Pursuant to the terms hereof, interest on each Advance or Equipment Advance, which accrues at the LIBOR Rate, shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of any
4
LIBOR Advance pursuant to this Agreement for the portion of any LIBOR Advance so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.4(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.
(d) Prime Rate Advances. Each change in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Advances based on changes in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change and to the extent of such change. Bank shall use its best efforts to give Borrower prompt notice of any such change in the Prime Rate; provided, however, that any failure by Bank to provide Borrower with notice hereunder shall not affect Bank’s right to make changes in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Advances based on changes in the Prime Rate.
(e) LIBOR Advances. The interest rate applicable to each LIBOR Advance shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.6(a) hereunder. Subject to Sections 3.6 and 3.7, such rate shall apply during the entire Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Advance, and interest calculated thereon shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date applicable to such LIBOR Advance.
(f) Debit of Accounts. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
(g) Payment: Interest Computation; Float Charge. Interest is payable monthly on the first (1st) calendar day of each month, hi computing interest on the Obligations, all Payments received after 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on any day shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue.
2.5 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank:
(a) Commitment Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) on the Effective Date and Borrower shall pay Bank on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, an additional non-refundable commitment fee of either One Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000) or, if the Eligible Equipment Line Refinancing has occurred prior to such date, One Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000).
(b) Good Faith Deposit. Borrower has paid to Bank a good faith deposit of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “Good Faith Deposit”) to initiate Bank’s due diligence review process. The Good Faith Deposit will be applied to the Commitment Fee;
(c) Termination Fee. Subject to the terms of Section 13.1, a termination fee; and
(d) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, plus expenses, for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.

3.4 Procedures for Borrowing.
(a) Credit Extensions. Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of a Credit Extension set forth in this Agreement, each Credit Extension
7
shall be made upon Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to Bank (accompanied by a Transaction Report) in the form of a Notice of Borrowing or Payment/Advance Form, as applicable, each executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower or his or her designee or without instructions if the Credit Extensions are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance. Such Notice of Borrowing must be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time, (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Advances, and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of Prime Rate Advances, and at least three (3) Business Days prior to a Qualifying Initial Public Offering specifying:
(1) the amount of the Credit Extension;
(2) the requested Funding Date; and
(3) the duration of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Advances included in such notice; provided that if the Notice of Borrowing shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any Credit Extension, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.
(b) The proceeds of all such Credit Extensions will then be made available to Borrower on the Funding Date by Bank by transfer to the Designated Deposit Account and, subsequently, by wire transfer to such other account as Borrower may instruct in the Notice of Borrowing. No Credit Extensions shall be deemed made to Borrower, and no interest shall accrue on any such Credit Extensions, until the related funds have been deposited in the Designated Deposit Account.
(c) Equipment Advances. Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of a Credit Extension set forth in this Agreement, to obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower must include, in addition to the Payment/Advance Form, a copy of the invoice for the Eligible Equipment being financed. If Borrower satisfies the conditions of each Equipment Advance, Bank shall disburse such Equipment Advance by transfer to the Designated Deposit Account.
3.5 Conversion and Continuation Elections.
(a) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Advances, Borrower shall have timely failed to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Advances, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.
(b) Any LIBOR Advances shall, at Bank’s option, convert into Prime Rate Advances in the event that (i) an Event of Default or Default shall exist, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Prime Rate Advances which have been previously converted to LIBOR Advances, or the aggregate principal amount of existing LIBOR Advances continued, as the case may be, at the beginning of an Interest Period shall at any time during such Interest Period exceed the Revolving Line. Borrower agrees to pay Bank, upon demand by Bank (or Bank may, at its option, charge the Designated Deposit Account or any other account Borrower maintains
8
with Bank) any amounts required to compensate Bank for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost, or expense incurred by Bank, as a result of the conversion of LIBOR Advances to Prime Rate Advances pursuant to any of the foregoing.
(c) 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 market to fund any LIBOR Advances, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Bank had purchased such deposits to fund the LIBOR Advances.
3.6 Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Advances.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Advances as to the matters covered:
(a) Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Advances for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.
(b) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Advance, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Credit Extension on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination, whereupon (i) no Credit Extensions may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Advances until such time as Bank notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation given by Borrower with respect to Credit Extensions in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.
(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written request by Bank (which request shall set forth the manner and method of computing such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities, if any (including any interest paid by Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Advances and any loss, expense or liability incurred by Bank in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) such that Bank may incur: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund LIBOR Advances due to impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.7(d) and 3.7(e)) a borrowing or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Advance does not occur on a date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation, as the case may be, or (ii) if any principal payment or any conversion of any of its LIBOR Advances occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Credit Extension.
9
(d) Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Advances. Calculation of all amounts payable to Bank under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4 shall be made as though Bank had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Advances through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Advance and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund each of its LIBOR Advances in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4.
(e) LIBOR Advances After Default. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have a Credit Extension be made or continued as, or converted to, a LIBOR Advance after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for such Credit Extension and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), any Notice of Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a requested conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower and be deemed a request to convert or continue Credit Extensions referred to therein as Prime Rate Advances.
3.7 Additional Requirements/Provisions Regarding LIBOR Advances.
(a) If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of a LIBOR Advance prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Advance, Borrower shall immediately notify Borrower’s account officer at Bank and, 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 exceeds (ii) the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the certificate of deposit markets, the offshore currency markets, or United States Treasury investment products, as the case may be, for a period starting on the date on which it was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by Bank in its reasonable discretion. Bank’s determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Borrower shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may 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 which:
(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);
(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); or
10
(iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).
Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the Effective Date which will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.7 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section 3.7. Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 3.7 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Credit Extensions, 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) 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 policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction. A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.7(c) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) If, at any time, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that (i) the amount of LIBOR Advances for periods equal to the corresponding Interest Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR Advances, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. Upon the giving of such notice, Bank’s obligation to make the LIBOR Advances shall terminate; provided, however, Credit Extensions shall not terminate if Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Advances.
(e) If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Advances, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall prepay the Credit Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.7(a)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by Bank as described above relates to a LIBOR Advance then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation, Borrower shall have
11
the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), to (i) rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such rescission on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above, or (ii) modify such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation to obtain a Prime Rate Advance or to have outstanding Credit Extensions converted into or continued as Prime Rate Advances by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such modification on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above.
4 CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
4.1 Grant of Security Interest.
(a) Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien under this Agreement). If Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank.
(b) Borrower hereby assigns, pledges, delivers, and transfers to Bank, and hereby grants to Bank, a continuing first priority security interest in and against all right, title and interest of the following, whether now or hereafter existing or acquired by Borrower: all Pledged Collateral, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and non-cash proceeds of the foregoing; and all of Borrower’s books relating to the foregoing and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above and all substitutions for, additions and accessions to and proceeds thereof.
If this Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.
4.2 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code.

Borrower has no deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts with Bank, the deposit accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith, or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein.
The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse). Except as hereafter disclosed to Bank in writing by Borrower, none of the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate. In
13
the event that Borrower, after the date hereof, intends to store or otherwise deliver any portion of the Collateral to a bailee, then Borrower will first receive the written consent of Bank and such bailee must acknowledge in writing that the bailee is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Bank. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.
All Financed Equipment is new, except for such Financed Equipment that has been disclosed in writing to Bank by Borrower as “used” and that Bank, in its sole discretion, has agreed to finance. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.

(a) For each Account with respect to which Advances are requested, on the date each Advance is requested and made, such Account shall be an Eligible Account.
(b) All statements made and all unpaid balances appearing in all invoices, instruments and other documents evidencing the Accounts are and shall be true and correct and all such invoices, instruments and other documents, and all of Borrower’s Books are genuine and in all respects what they purport to be. All sales and other transactions underlying or giving rise to each Account shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations. Borrower has no knowledge of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any Account Debtor whose accounts are an Eligible Account in any Borrowing Base Certificate.

5.4 Litigation. There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving more than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000).
5.5 No Material Deviation in Financial Statements. All consolidated financial statements for Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Bank.
5.6 Solvency. The fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
5.7 Regulatory Compliance. Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or a
14
“subsidiary company” of a “holding company as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted.

Except as disclosed in the Perfection Certificate, Borrower has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower. Borrower may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the Governmental Authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien”. Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.
5.10 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions solely as working capital, to purchase Eligible Equipment, and to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.
5.11 Full Disclosure. No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).

(a) Schedules and Documents Relating to Accounts. Borrower shall deliver to Bank transaction reports and schedules of collections, as provided in Section 6.2, on Bank’s standard forms; provided, however, that Borrower’s failure to execute and deliver the same shall not affect or limit Bank’s Lien and other rights in all of Borrower’s Accounts, nor shall Bank’s failure to advance or lend against a specific Account affect or limit Bank’s Lien and other rights therein. If requested by Bank, Borrower shall furnish Bank with copies (or, at Bank’s request, originals) of all contracts, orders, invoices, and other similar documents, and all shipping instructions, delivery receipts, bills of lading, and other evidence of delivery, for any goods the sale or disposition of which gave rise to such Accounts.

(f) No Liability. Bank shall not be responsible or liable for any shortage or discrepancy in, damage to, or loss or destruction of, any goods, the sale or other disposition of which gives rise to an Account, or for any error, act, omission, or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, failure to settle, collection or failure to collect any Account, or for settling any Account in good faith for less than the full amount thereof, nor shall Bank be deemed to be responsible for any of Borrower’s obligations under any contract or agreement giving rise to an Account. Nothing herein shall, however, relieve Bank from liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
6.4 Remittance of Proceeds. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.3(c), deliver, in kind, all proceeds arising from the disposition of any Collateral to Bank in the original form in which received by Borrower not later than the following Business Day after receipt by Borrower, to be applied to the Obligations pursuant to the terms of Section 9.4 hereof; provided that, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall not be obligated to remit to Bank the proceeds of the sale of worn out or obsolete Equipment disposed of by Borrower in good faith in an arm’s length transaction for an aggregate purchase price of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) or less (for all such transactions in any fiscal year). Borrower agrees that it will not commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of Borrower’s other funds or property, but will hold such proceeds separate and apart from such other funds and property and in an express trust for Bank. Nothing in this Section limits the restrictions on disposition of Collateral set forth elsewhere in this Agreement.
6.5 Taxes; Pensions. Timely file all required tax returns and reports and timely pay all material foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower except for deferred payment of any taxes contested pursuant to the terms of Section 5.9 hereof, and pay all material amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, unless any of the above are disputed and contested in good faith and for which Borrower maintains adequate reserves on Borrower’s Books.
18
6.6 Access to Collateral; Books and Records. No more often than once every twelve (12) months unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on one (1) Business Day’s notice (provided no notice is required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), Bank, or its agents, shall have the right to inspect the Collateral and the right to audit and copy Borrower’s Books (the “Field Examination”). The foregoing Field Examination shall be at Borrower’s expense, and the charge therefor shall be Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750) per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent Bank’s then-current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. In the event Borrower and Bank schedule a Field Examination more than ten (10) days in advance, and Borrower cancels or seeks to reschedules the audit with less than ten (10) days written notice to Bank, then (without limiting any of Bank’s rights or remedies), Borrower shall pay Bank a fee of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank to compensate Bank for the anticipated costs and expenses of the cancellation or rescheduling.
6.7 Insurance. Keep its business and the Collateral insured for risks and in amounts standard for companies in Borrower’s industry and location and as Bank may reasonably request. Insurance policies shall be in a form, with companies, and in amounts that are satisfactory to Bank. All property policies shall have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing Bank as the sole loss payee and waive subrogation against Bank, and all liability policies shall show, or have endorsements showing, Bank as an additional insured. All policies (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements) shall provide that the insurer shall endeavor to give Bank at least twenty (20) days notice before canceling, amending, or declining to renew its policy. At Bank’s request, Borrower shall deliver certified copies of policies and evidence of all premium payments. Proceeds payable under any policy shall, at Bank’s option, be payable to Bank on account of the Obligations. If Borrower fails to obtain insurance as required under this Section 6.7 or to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons and Bank, Bank may make all or part of such payment or obtain such insurance policies required in this Section 6.7, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent.

One or more judgments, orders, or decrees for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which liability has been accepted by such insurance carrier) shall be rendered against Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied, unvacated, or unstayed for a period often (10) days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the satisfaction, vacation, or stay of such judgment, order, or decree);
8.8 Misrepresentations. Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Bank or to induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;
8.9 Subordinated Debt. A default or breach occurs under any agreement between Borrower and any creditor of Borrower that signed a subordination, intercreditor, or other similar agreement with Bank, or any creditor that has signed such an agreement with Bank breaches any terms of such agreement; or

9 BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
9.1 Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit 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 on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;
24
(d) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
(e) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;
(f) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property 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, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
(g) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(h) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and
(i) exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
9.2 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or xxxx of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
25
9.3 Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.7 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds. Borrower shall have no right to specify the order or the accounts to which Bank shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by Borrower to Bank or otherwise received by Bank under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower by credit to the Designated Deposit Account or to other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency. If Bank, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.
9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
9.7 Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, 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 held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.
26
9.8 Sale of Pledged Collateral. Borrower recognizes that Bank may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), so that Bank may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and without a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Borrower understands that private sales so made may be at prices and on other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Pledged Collateral were sold at public sales, and agrees that Bank has no obligation to delay the sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary (even if Bank would agree), to register such securities for sale under the Act. Borrower agrees that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

11 RIGHT TO PURCHASE OBLIGATIONS OWED TO BANK
11.1 Right to Purchase Obligations. Borrower and Bank agree that the individuals and entities (listed on Schedule 1) are guarantors of certain indebtedness otherwise described herein to Pinnacle Bank. The indebtedness is evidenced by, among other things, the Pinnacle Bank Loan Documents. The individuals and entities listed on Schedule 1 are hereafter referred to as the “Pinnacle Bank Guarantors”. Bank agrees that the Pinnacle Bank Guarantors shall have the one time right prior to the termination of this Agreement and during the Purchase Option Period, but not the obligation, to purchase without recourse or warranty of any kind, the Obligations owed to Bank evidenced by this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents (the “Purchase Option”). The purchase price shall be the unpaid Obligations as of the date of purchase due and owing to Bank, including Bank Expenses (the “Purchase Price”).
11.2 Purchase Option Period. The “Purchase Option Period” shall consist of a thirty (30) day period beginning on the date that a notice of a Default or Event of Default is mailed by Bank to Borrower and shall end thirty (30) calendar days thereafter. Nothing in this section shall impair Bank’s rights prior to Bank’s sale of the Obligations to the Pinnacle Bank Guarantors until such time as Bank has been paid the Purchase Price in full and, among other things, Bank shall be able to enforce all rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents during such Purchase Option Period.
11.3 Notice. The Purchase Option periods shall commence on the date Bank mails a copy of any notice of Default or Event of Default to the Pinnacle Bank Guarantors at the following address Crom Xxxxxxxxxx, 0000 Xxxx Xxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx XX 00000.
28
11.4 Conveyance to First Offeror. In the event that more than one of the Pinnacle Bank Guarantors gives Bank written notice that it will purchase the Obligations for the Purchase Price, which notice shall be irrevocable once given, the Bank upon receipt of the Purchase Price, will convey the Obligations, without recourse or warranty of any kind to the Pinnacle Bank Guarantor from whom Bank has received written notice that it will purchase the Obligations. Such purchase must close within five (5) Business Days of such acceptance by the Pinnacle Bank Guarantor and shall be pursuant to a Loan Purchase Agreement prepared by counsel for Borrower, at the expense of the Pinnacle Bank Guarantors, and shall be on an “as is” basis without representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, other than Bank’s authority to convey. Failure to close within such period shall terminate the right of all Pinnacle Bank Guarantors to purchase. Pinnacle Bank Guarantor shall indemnify Bank for any claims arising out of the Loan Documents after the date of such sale.
12 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE
North Carolina law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in the State of North Carolina; provided, however, that if for any reason the Bank can not avail itself of the courts of the State of North Carolina, the Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal Courts in Santa Xxxxx County, California, and provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or
29
controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Xxxxx County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Xxxxx County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Xxxxx County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

13.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 13.3 to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.
13.9 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; and (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under this Agreement. Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank; or (ii) is disclosed to Bank by a third party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.
31
13.10 Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses.

B. Bank has extended credit to Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.
C. Bank and Borrower desire to modify the Loan Agreement as set forth herein, subject, in all respects, to the terms and conditions hereof.
AGREEMENT
Now, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.
2. Amendments to Loan Agreement. Unless otherwise specifically set forth below, the following modifications to the Loan Agreement shall be deemed effective as of the date hereof.
2.1 Revised Section 2.1.1(b). Section 2.1.1(b) is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
“(b) Streamline Period. Any period when the sum of Borrower’s unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents, plus Eligible Accounts, minus the outstanding principal balance of any Advances, is greater than or equal to Eighteen Million Dollars ($18,000,000), Borrower shall be in a “Streamline Period”. Bank may terminate the Streamline Period at any time that the conditions for a Streamline Period no longer exist.”
2.2 New Sublimit Sections. New sublimit sections “2.1.1-1 Letters of Credit Sublimit”, “2.1.1-2 Foreign Exchange Sublimit”, “2.1.1-3 Cash Management Services Sublimit” and “2.1.1-4 Overall Aggregate Sublimit” are hereby added to the Loan Agreement that will be placed immediately following Section 2.1.l(c) and which new subsections shall read as follows:
“2.1.1-1 Letters of Credit Sublimit.
(a) Subject to the Overall Sublimit in Section 2.1.1-4 below, as part of the Revolving Line, Bank shall issue or have issued Letters of Credit for Borrower’s account. In addition to the applicability of the Overall Sublimit, the aggregate amount available to be used for the issuance of any new Letters of Credit may not exceed the then applicable Availability Amount. If, on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to said Letters of Credit. All Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s standard Application and Letter of Credit Agreement (the “Letter of Credit Application”). Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request. Borrower further agrees to be bound by the regulations and interpretations of the issuer of any Letters of Credit guarantied by Bank and opened for Borrower’s account or by Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued by Bank for Borrower’s account, and Borrower understands and agrees that Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto.
(b) The obligation of Borrower to immediately reimburse Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letters of Credit, and the Letter of Credit Application.
(c) Borrower may request that Bank issue a Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency. If a demand for payment is made under any such Letter of Credit, Bank shall treat such demand as an Advance to Borrower of the equivalent of the amount thereof (plus fees and charges in connection therewith such as wire, cable, SWIFT or similar charges) in Dollars at the then-prevailing rate of exchange in San Francisco, California, for sales of the Foreign Currency for transfer to the country issuing such Foreign Currency.
2
(d) To guard against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency, Bank shall create a reserve (the “Letter of Credit Reserve”) under the Revolving Line in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve may be adjusted by Bank from time to time to account for fluctuations in the exchange rate. The availability of funds under the Revolving Line shall be reduced by the amount of such Letter of Credit Reserve for as long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding.
(e) Issued and undrawn Letters of Credit shall not accrue interest hereunder as long as such Letters of Credit remain undrawn, provided nothing herein shall affect the fees and other amounts payable regarding such Letters of Credit as set forth in the Letter of Credit Applications with respect thereto.
2.1.1-2 Foreign Exchange Sublimit. Subject to the Overall Sublimit in Section 2.1.1-4 below, as part of the Revolving Line, Borrower may enter into foreign exchange contracts with Bank under which Borrower commits to purchase from or sell to Bank a specific amount of Foreign Currency (each, a “FX Forward Contract”) on a specified date (the “Settlement Date”). FX Forward Contracts shall have a Settlement Date of at least one (1) FX Business Day after the contract date and shall be subject to a reserve of ten percent (10%) of each outstanding FX Forward Contract (the “FX Reserve”) in a maximum aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000. The aggregate amount of FX Forward Contracts at any one time may not exceed ten (10) times the amount of the FX Reserve. In addition to the applicability of the Overall Sublimit, the aggregate amount of any new FX Reserve arising from the proposed issuance of any new FX Forward Contract may not exceed the then applicable Availability Amount. Any amounts needed to fully reimburse Bank will be treated as Advances under the Revolving Line and will accrue interest at the interest rate applicable to Advances.
2.1.1-3 Cash Management Services Sublimit. Subject to the Overall Sublimit in Section 2.1.1-4 below, Borrower may use up to $1,000,000 of the Revolving Line for Bank’s cash management services which may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit card, and check cashing services identified in Bank’s various cash management services agreements (collectively, the “Cash Management Services”), provided that, after giving effect to any such proposed utilization, in addition to the Section 2.1.5 limitations, no new such utilization may exceed the then applicable Availability Amount. Any amounts Bank pays on behalf of Borrower for any Cash Management Services will be treated as Advances under the Revolving Line and will accrue interest at the interest rate applicable to Advances.
3
2.1.1-4 Overall Aggregate Sublimit. In no event shall the total amount of (i) outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit and any Letter of Credit Reserve), and (ii) the FX Reserve, and (iii) the amount of the Revolving Line utilized for Cash Management Services, at any time exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Overall Sublimit”).”
2.3 Modified Section 2.4(b)(i). Section 2.4(b)(i) is hereby amended in is entirety to read as follows:
“ (b) Interest Rate.
(i) Advances. Subject to Section 2.4(c), the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Line shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.4(g) below. As of the effective date of the April 2009 Amendment, the Applicable Interest Rate is set at Level I. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary set forth herein, the maximum per annum interest rate applicable to the Obligations during the first twelve months following the Effective Date shall not exceed 7.50%, and thereafter the maximum per annum interest rate applicable to the Obligations during the second twelve months following the Effective Date shall not exceed 8.50%.
During any Period when: |
Levels: | Applicable Interest Rate: | ||
At such times when neither the Level II or Level III rate conditions are applicable and the Section 2.4(c) rate is not otherwise in effect | I | Prime Rate plus one and one-half percentage points (1.50%) per annum; provided that the minimum applicable interest rate in effect at any time shall be 5.50% per annum | ||
Positive EBITDA for the immediately preceding three (3) consecutive quarters as of any date of determination | II | Prime Rate plus one-half of one percentage point (0.50%) per annum; provided that the minimum applicable interest rate in effect at any time shall be 5.50% per annum | ||
From and after a Qualifying Initial Public Offering | III | LIBOR Rate, plus 250 basis points per annum, subject to the provisions and restrictions applicable thereto as are set forth in Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and otherwise in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. |
4
2.4 Deleted Section 2.4(b)(ii). As the Equipment Advances are being repaid concurrently herewith, Section 2.4(b)(ii) is hereby deleted.
2.5 Modified Section 2.4(b)(iii). As the Equipment Advances are being repaid concurrently herewith Section 2.4(b)(iii) is hereby modified to have all references to the “Applicable Equipment Interest Rate” and the payment thereof to be deemed of no further force or effect.
2.6 Modified Section 2.4(g). Section 2.4(g) is hereby amended in is entirety to read as follows:
“(g) Payment; Interest Computation; Float Charge. Interest is payable monthly on the first (1 st) calendar day of each month. In computing interest on the Obligations, all Payments received after 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on any day shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. In addition, so long as any principal or interest with respect to any Credit Extension remains outstanding, Bank shall be entitled to charge Borrower a “float” charge in an amount equal to, with respect to checks only (but not with respect to electronic payments) two (2) Business Days’ interest, at the interest rate applicable to the Credit Extensions, on all Payments received by Bank, and, for the sake of clarity, there is no “float” charge applicable to payments received electronically in accordance with the provisions hereof. The float charge for each month shall be payable on the last day of the month. Bank shall not, however, be required to credit Borrower’s account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Bank in its good faith business judgment, and Bank may charge Borrower’s Designated Deposit Account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned to Bank unpaid.”
2.7 New Sections 2.5(e), (f). New sections “(e) Unused Line Fee” and “(f) Collateral Handling Fee” are hereby added to Section 2.5 of the Loan Agreement that will be placed immediately following Section 2.5(d) of the Loan Agreement and which new Sections shall read as follows:

Borrower shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of any Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee previously earned by Bank pursuant to this Section notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or suspension or termination of Bank’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder, including during any Streamline Period, provided that the foregoing percentage shall be reduced to 0.25% per annum (1) during such months that Borrower has maintained in deposit accounts with Bank a minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000 during the entirety of each of such months (but amounts in investment accounts or in accounts that are not balance sheet items of Bank shall not be included for purposes of satisfying the foregoing $10,000,000 minimum requirement); and (2) on and after such time after February 1, 2009 that Borrower has consummated an equity or Subordinated Debt financing transaction from which Borrower has received minimum net proceeds of $25,000,000.
(f) Collateral Monitoring Fee. A monthly collateral monitoring fee of $1,000, payable in arrears on the last day of each month (prorated for any partial month at the beginning and upon termination of this Agreement, provided that such fee is not payable while a Streamline Period is in effect for any entire monthly period during the term hereof.”
2.8 Revised Section 5.2. The following are hereby added as supplemental and additional paragraphs at the end of Section 5.2:
“Borrower is the sole owner of its intellectual property, except for non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Each patent is valid and enforceable and no part of the intellectual property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the intellectual property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any material license or other agreement with respect to which Borrower is the licensee (a) that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or any other property, or (b) for which a default under or termination of could interfere with the Bank’s right to sell any Collateral. Borrower shall provide written notice to Bank within thirty days of entering or becoming hound by any such license or agreement (other than over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public). Borrower shall take such steps as Bank requests to obtain the
6
consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for (x) all such licenses or agreements to be deemed “Collateral” and for Bank to have a security interest in the same that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future, and (y) Bank to have the ability in the event of a liquidation of any Collateral to dispose of such Collateral in accordance with Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.”
2.9 Modification to Reporting (Section 6.2). Section 6.2 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

“(v) as and when prepared, copies of any material revisions to Borrower’s projections or business plan, as approved by Borrower’s board of directors;”
(c) A new Section 6.2(a)(vi) is hereby added to follow Section 6.2(a)(v), and which new section shall read as follows:

“WARNING
Unless you (herein meaning Borrower) provides us (herein Bank) with evidence of the insurance coverage as required herein, we (herein meaning Bank) may purchase insurance at your (meaning Borrower’s) expense to protect our (meaning Bank’s) interest. This insurance may, but need not, also protect your (meaning Borrower’s) interest. If the Collateral becomes damaged, the coverage we (meaning Bank) purchases may not pay any claim you (meaning Borrower) make or any claim made against you (meaning Borrower). You (meaning Borrower) may later cancel this coverage by providing evidence that you (meaning Borrower) have obtained property coverage elsewhere.
You (meaning Borrower) are responsible for the cost of any insurance purchased by us (meaning Bank). The cost of this insurance may be added to the Obligations. If the cost is added to the Obligations, the interest rate on the Advances will apply to this added amount. The effective date of coverage may be the date your (meaning Borrower’s) prior coverage lapsed or the date you (meaning Borrower) failed to provide proof of coverage.
7
This coverage we (meaning Bank) purchased may be considerably more expensive than insurance you (meaning Borrower) can obtain on your (meaning Borrower’s) own and may not satisfy any need for property damage coverage or any mandatory liability insurance requirements imposed by applicable law.”

If Borrower (i) obtains any patent, registered trademark or servicemark, registered copyright, registered mask work, or any pending application for any of the foregoing, whether as owner, licensee or otherwise, or (ii) applies for any patent or the registration of any trademark or servicemark, then Borrower shall immediately provide written notice thereof to Bank and shall execute such intellectual property security agreements and other documents and take such other actions as Bank shall request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in such property. If Borrower decides to register any copyrights or mask works in the United States Copyright Office, Borrower shall: (x) provide Bank with at least five (5) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intent to register such copyrights or mask works together with a copy of the application it intends to file with the United States Copyright Office (excluding exhibits thereto); (y) execute an intellectual property security agreement and such other documents and take such other actions as Bank may request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in the copyrights or mask works intended to be registered with the United States Copyright Office; and (z) record such intellectual property security agreement with the United States Copyright Office contemporaneously with filing the copyright or mask work application(s) with the United States Copyright Office.
