This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT dated as of the Effective Date, between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”), whose address is 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 and ADVANCED POWER TECHNOLOGY, INC., ADVANCED POWER TECHNOLOGY COLORADO, INC., ADVANCED POWER TECHNOLOGY RF-PENNSYLVANIA, INC. and ADVANCED POWER TECHNOLOGY RF, INC. (Advanced Power Technology, Inc., Advanced Power Technology Colorado, Inc., Advanced Power Technology RF-Pennsylvania, Inc. and Advanced Power Technology RF, Inc. may be collectively referred to as “Borrower”), whose address is 000 X.X. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxx, XX 00000, provides the terms on which Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as follows:

1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term “financial statements” includes the notes and schedules. The terms “including” and “includes” always mean “including (or includes) without limitation,” in this or any Loan Document.

2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

2.1 Promise to Pay.

Borrower promises to pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions.

2.1.1 Revolving Advances.

(a) Bank will make Advances not exceeding the Committed Revolving Line. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement.

(b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or telephone by 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the Business Day the Advance is to be made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B. Bank will credit Advances to Borrower’s deposit account. Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without instructions if the Advances 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.

2.1.2 Cash Management Services.

Borrower may use up to $290,000 for Bank’s cash management services, which may include merchant services in the sum of up to $285,000 and business credit card services in the sum of up to $5,000 (the “Cash Management Services Sublimit”). All amounts Bank pays for any Cash Management Services will not be treated as Advances under the Committed Revolving Line.

2.2 Termination of Commitment to Lend.

Bank’s obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Obligations will terminate if, in Bank’s sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most

recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement.

2.3 Overadvances.

If Borrower’s Obligations under Section 2.1.1 exceed the Committed Revolving Line, Borrower must immediately pay Bank the excess.

2.4 Interest Rate, Payments.

2.4.1 As to Advances.

(a) Interest Rate. Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate equal to the applicable Prime Rate Margin above the Prime Rate or, if Borrower elects, at the applicable LIBOR Rate Margin above the LIBOR Rate in accordance with the terms of the Libor Supplement to Agreement, which is incorporated by this reference. Any change in the Prime Rate Margin shall take effect as of the first day of the month after Bank’s receipt of Borrower’s Compliance Certificate which requires the Prime Rate Margin to be changed based on the Adjusted Quick Ratio calculation. Any change in the LIBOR Rate Margin based on changes in the Adjusted Quick Ratio calculation shall not affect any existing LIBOR Rate Loans (as defined in the LIBOR Supplement to Agreement), but shall take effect with respect to any LIBOR Rate election made by Borrower after Bank’s receipt of the Borrower’s Compliance Certificate. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

(b) Payments. (i) If interest is based on the Prime Rate plus the applicable Prime Rate Margin, then interest due on the Committed Revolving Line is payable on the 14th of each month; and (ii) if interest is based on the LIBOR Rate plus the applicable LIBOR Rate Margin, then interest on each LIBOR Rate Loan (defined in the LIBOR Supplement to Agreement) shall be payable on the earlier of ninety days after the date the LIBOR Rate Loan was made or the last day of the Interest Period (defined in the LIBOR Supplement to Agreement) for such Loan; provided however that with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan with a six-month Interest Period, Interest shall be payable ninety days after the date the LIBOR Rate Loan was made and shall also be payable on the last day of the six-month Interest Period. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific Time are considered received at the opening of business 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 interest shall accrue.

2.4.2 Request to Debit Accounts.

Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts including Account Number for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. Bank will notify Borrower when it debits Borrower’s accounts. These debits are not a set-off.

2.5 Fees.

Borrower will pay:

(a) Facility Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable Facility Fee of $20,000 for the Committed Revolving Line due on the Effective Date;

(b) Unused Line Fee. In the event, in any calendar quarter (or portion thereof at the beginning and end of the term hereof), the average daily principal balance of the Advances

outstanding during the quarter is less than the Committed Revolving Line, Borrower shall pay to Bank an unused line fee in an amount equal to 0.20% per annum on the difference between the Committed Revolving Line and the average daily principal balance of the Advances outstanding during the quarter, which unused line fee shall be computed and paid quarterly, in arrears, on the first day of the following month.

(b) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses) incurred through and after the date of this Agreement, are payable when due.

Each Credit Extension is Borrower’s representation and warranty on that date that the representations and warranties of Section 5 remain true.

4 CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

4.1 Grant of Security Interest.

Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all presently existing and later acquired Collateral to secure all Obligations and performance of each of Borrower’s duties under the Loan Documents.

5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

5.1 Due Organization and Authorization.

Each Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

Borrower has not changed its state of formation or its organizational structure or type or any organizational number (if any) assigned by its jurisdiction of formation.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s formation documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

5.2 Collateral.

Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens or Borrower has Rights to each asset that is Collateral. Borrower has no other deposit account, other than the deposit accounts described in the Schedule. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations, and the service or property has been performed or delivered to the account debtor or its agent for immediate shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor. The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as at a warehouse). In the event that Borrower, after the date hereof, intends to store or otherwise deliver the Collateral to such a bailee, then Borrower will receive the prior written consent of Bank and such bailee must acknowledge in writing that the bailee is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Bank. Borrower has no notice of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. Borrower is the sole owner of the 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 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.

5.3 Litigation.

Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower’s Responsible Officers, threatened by or against any Borrower or any Subsidiary in which a likely adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

5.4 No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements.

All consolidated financial statements for Borrower, and any Subsidiary, 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.

5.5 Solvency.

The fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; the 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.

Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s 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 Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has 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 its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

5.7 Investments in Subsidiaries.

5.8 Full Disclosure.

No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank (taken together with all such written certificates and written statements 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.

6.1 Government Compliance.

Borrower will maintain its and all Subsidiaries’ legal existence and good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and maintain qualification in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business or operations. Borrower will comply, and have each Subsidiary comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with which could have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business or operations or would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

6.5 Insurance.

Borrower will keep its business and the Collateral insured for risks and in amounts, as Bank may reasonably request. Insurance policies will be in a form, with companies, and in amounts that are satisfactory to Bank in Bank’s reasonable discretion. All property policies will have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing Bank as an additional loss payee and all liability policies will show the Bank as an additional insured and provide that the insurer must give Bank at least 20 days notice before canceling its policy. At Bank’s request, Borrower will deliver certified copies of policies and evidence of all premium payments. Proceeds payable under any policy will, at Bank’s option, be payable to Bank on account of the Obligations.

WARNING

Unless you provide us with evidence of the insurance coverage as required by our contract or loan agreement, we may purchase insurance at your expense to protect our interest. This insurance may, but need not, also protect your interest. If the collateral becomes damaged, the coverage we purchase may not pay any claim you make or any claim made against you. You may later cancel this coverage by providing evidence that you have obtained property coverage elsewhere.

You are responsible for the cost of any insurance purchased by us. The cost of this insurance may be added to your contract or loan balance. If the cost is added to your contract or loan balance, the interest rate on the underlying contract or loan will apply to this added amount. The effective date of coverage may be the date your prior coverage lapsed or the date you failed to provide proof of coverage.

This coverage we purchased may be considerably more expensive than insurance you can obtain on your own and may not satisfy any need for property damage coverage or any mandatory liability insurance requirements imposed by applicable law.

6.6 Primary Accounts.

Borrower will maintain its primary depository and operating accounts with Bank.

6.7 Financial Covenants.

Borrower will maintain as of the last day of each month:

Borrower will (i) protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of the Intellectual Property and promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements and (ii) not allow any Intellectual Property to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without Bank’s written consent.

6.9 Further Assurances.

9 BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 Rights and Remedies.

When 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 the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit;

(d) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requires 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) Bank may place a ‘hold’ on any account maintained with Bank and 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. Apply to the Obligations (i) any 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 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; and

(g) Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.

9.2 Power of Attorney.

Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or xxxx of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s

insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank’s 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.

9.3 Bank Expenses.

If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons, Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. 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 Bank’s Liability for Collateral.

If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and Section 9-207 of the Code, it is not liable 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. Except as provided above, Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.5 Remedies Cumulative.

Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.

No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given.

9.6 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.

A party may change its notice address by giving the other party written notice.

11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

12.8 Confidentiality.

In handling any confidential information, Bank will exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made (i) to Bank’s subsidiaries or affiliates in connection with their business with Borrower, (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the loans (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts in obtaining such prospective transferee or purchasers agreement of the terms of this provision), (iii) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order, (iv) as required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit and (v) as Bank considers appropriate exercising remedies under this Agreement.
