AMOUNT AND TERMS OF
LOAN
2.1 Revolving
Loan. Lender,
upon the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement, shall
extend to Borrower a revolving credit facility up to the maximum principal
amount of the Credit Limit. Each Advance shall be added to the
outstanding Principal Indebtedness of the Loan. At no time may the
aggregate outstanding Principal Indebtedness of the Loan exceed the Credit
Limit. Borrower may draw on and utilize the available Credit Limit
during the period from the date of this Agreement up to, but not including, the
Termination Date. Lender shall have no obligation to fund any Advance
which, when added to the outstanding Principal Indebtedness of the Loan on the
date of such request, would cause such outstanding Principal Indebtedness to
exceed the total Credit Limit, or which is made on or after the Termination
Date. The Credit Limit shall be reduced as the principal balance of
the Loan is repaid and Borrower, or the Guarantor, obtains a release of certain
of the Collateral. For example, if the Credit Limit were
$3,000,000.00 and Borrower reduced the outstanding principal balance of the Loan
to $2,000,000.00, and Borrower and the Guarantor requested the release of the
deposit account pledged by the Guarantor to Lender under the Guarantor’s
Assignment of Deposit Account (which account is in the minimum amount of
$1,000,000.00), the Credit Limit would be reduced by the dollar amount of the
Collateral released and the reduced Credit Limit would become
$2,000,000.00.
2.2 Use of Loan
Proceeds. The
proceeds of the Loan shall be used by Borrower as capital for Borrower’s
business, including the completion of the Merger Transaction with
Prescient.
2.3 Initial Funding of
Loan. Concurrently
with the execution of this Agreement, Lender shall make available an Advance for
the account of Borrower in the amount of up to THREE HUNDRED EIGHTEEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($318,000.00).
2.4 Funding in Advance of
Completion of Merger Transaction. Lender
shall make an Advance in the amount of TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($2,500,000.00) prior to the Completion of Merger Transaction, subject to the
following:
(a) SEC Preliminary
Approval. Borrower shall have received a “no comment” response from the
SEC with respect to the proxy filings regarding the Merger Transaction;
and
(b) Control
Account. The proceeds of the Advance are deposited into the
Control Account.
2.5 Completion of Merger
Transaction. Provided
no Event of Default has occurred or is then continuing:
(a) Release of Funds in Control
Account. Prior to the Completion of Merger Transaction, Lender
shall release to Borrower funds necessary only for the required purchase of
outstanding shares of Prescient stock in the approximate amount of ONE MILLION
THREE HUNDRED FIFTY-SIX THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY-THREE DOLLARS
($1,356,853.00), but in no event greater than ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($1,500,000.00).
(b) Pay-off of Riverview
Loan. At the Completion of Merger Transaction, Borrower shall
retire its debt to Riverview (in the approximate amount of $1,000,000.00 plus
accrued interest), and Riverview uses such payment to pay to Lender all amounts
owing to Lender under the Riverview Loan in full.
(c) Releases by
Lender. At the Completion of Merger Transaction, once the
Riverview Loan is paid in full: (1) Lender shall permit the remaining
funds deposited into the Control Account to be released to Borrower; (2) Lender
shall release the security interests in the Accounts and the other collateral
granted under the Security Agreement; provided that Riverview and the Guarantor
have pledged to Lender, and Lender is holding under the terms of the Assignments
of Deposit Account, pledged deposits in the minimum aggregate amount of TWO
MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED EIGHTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,818,000.00); and (3) Lender
shall terminate the Guaranty.
2.6 Credit
Limit. Following
the Completion of Merger Transaction, at no time shall the Credit Limit exceed
the amount of cash collateral held by Lender to secure payment of the
Loan. Borrower may provide additional cash collateral to Lender to
increase the Credit Limit, provided that at no time shall the Credit Limit
exceed THREE MILLION DOLLARS ($3,000,000.00).
2.7 Notice and Manner of
Borrowing. After
the initial funding of the Loan, Borrower shall give Lender prior written notice
or notice by facsimile (effective upon receipt) of any Advances under this
Agreement, specifying the date and amount thereof. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, on
behalf of Borrower, may make a request for an Advance under this
Agreement. In the event Lender determines to approve the requested
Advance, not later than 5:00 p.m., Park City, Utah time, on the date of such
Advance and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article
III, Lender will make such Advance available to Borrower by transferring the

Account. The Note shall also be secured by the Assignments of

(pledging a deposit account in the minimum amount of $483,000.00).
(c) Guaranty. The

contractual right to set off against all depository account balances, cash and
any other property of Borrower now or hereafter in the possession of Lender and
the right to refuse to allow withdrawals from any account. Lender
may, at any time upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (notwithstanding any
notice requirements or grace/cure periods under this Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents) set-off against the obligations of Borrower to Lender whether or
not such obligations (including future installments) are then due or have been

Charges. If

to Lender a late fee charge as specified in the Note.

. In
the event Lender, in Lender's sole discretion, and pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, but without obligation, makes additional advances to or for the
