	2.1.1 Revolving Credit Facility.

Subject to and upon the provisions of this Agreement, the Lender establishes a revolving credit facility in favor of the Borrowers. The aggregate of all advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “Revolving Loan”.

The principal amount of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000.00) is the “Revolving Credit Committed Amount”.

During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, any or all of the Borrowers may request advances under the Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided that after giving effect to any Borrower’s request the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan and all Letter of Credit Obligations would not exceed the lesser of (a) the Revolving Credit Committed Amount or (b) the then most current Borrowing Base.

Unless sooner paid, the unpaid Revolving Loan, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other Obligations shall be due and payable in full on the Revolving Credit Expiration Date.


	2.1.2 Procedure for Making Advances Under the Revolving Loan; Lender Protection Loans.

The Borrowers may borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility on any Business Day. Advances under the Revolving Loan shall be in an amount of not less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), or a multiple thereof and deposited to a demand deposit account of a Borrower with the Lender (or an Affiliate of the Lender) or shall be otherwise applied as directed by the Borrowers, which direction the Lender may require to be in writing. No later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the date of the requested borrowing, the Borrowers shall give the Lender oral or written notice (a “Loan Notice”) of the amount and (if requested by the Lender) the purpose of the requested borrowing. Any oral Loan Notice shall be confirmed in writing by the Borrowers within three (3) Business Days after the making of the requested advance under the Revolving Loan. Each Loan Notice shall be irrevocable.

In addition, each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time, without further request from or notice to the Borrowers, to make advances under the Revolving Loan, and to establish, without duplication, reserves against the Borrowing Base, which the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or appropriate to protect the interests of the Lender, including, without limitation, advances and reserves under the Revolving Loan made to cover debit balances in the Revolving Loan Account, principal of, and/or interest on, any Loan, the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Letter of Credit Obligations), and/or Enforcement Costs, prior to, on, or after the termination of other advances under this Agreement, regardless of whether the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loan that the Lender may advance or reserve hereunder exceeds the Revolving Credit Committed Amount or the Borrowing Base.


	2.1.3 Borrowing Base.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Borrowing Base” means at any time, an amount equal to the aggregate of (a) ninety percent (90%) of the amount of Eligible Receivables derived from Government Contracts, (b) eighty percent (80%) of the amount of Eligible Receivables derived from contracts other than Government Contracts and (c) the Applicable Percentage of Eligible Unbilled Receivables up to the Maximum Eligible Unbilled Amounts.

The Borrowing Base shall be computed based on the Borrowing Base Report most recently delivered to and accepted by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event the Borrowers fail to furnish a Borrowing Base Report required by Section 2.1.4 (Borrowing Base Report), or in the event the Lender believes that a Borrowing Base Report is no longer accurate, the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion exercised from time to time and without limiting its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, suspend the making of or limit advances under the Revolving Loan. The Borrowing Base shall be subject to reduction by amounts credited to the Collateral Account since the date of the most recent Borrowing Base Report and by the amount of any Receivable which was included in the Borrowing Base but which the Lender determines fails to meet the respective criteria applicable from time to time for Eligible Receivables.

If at any time the total of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loan and Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations exceeds the Borrowing Base, a borrowing base deficiency (“Borrowing Base Deficiency”) shall exist. Each time a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrowers at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender exercised from time to time shall pay the Borrowing Base Deficiency ON DEMAND to the Lender.

Without implying any limitation on the Lender’s discretion with respect to the Borrowing Base, the criteria for Eligible Receivables contained in the definition of Eligible Receivables are in part based upon the business operations of the Borrowers existing on or about the Closing Date and upon information and records furnished to the Lender by the Borrowers. If at any time or from time to time hereafter, the business operations of the Borrowers change or such information and records furnished to the Lender is incorrect or misleading, the Lender in its discretion, may at any time and from time to time during the duration of this Agreement change such criteria or add new criteria. The Lender may communicate such changed or additional criteria to the Borrowers from time to time either orally or in writing.

The Borrowing Base Report shall contain the amount and payments on the Receivables and the calculations of the Borrowing Base, all in such detail, and accompanied by such supporting and other information, as the Lender may from time to time request. Upon the Lender’s request upon the creation of any Receivables or at such other intervals as the Lender may require, the Borrowers will provide the Lender with (a) confirmatory assignment schedules; (b) copies of Account Debtor invoices; (c) such further schedules, documents and/or information regarding the Receivables as the Lender may reasonably require. The items to be provided under this subsection shall be in form satisfactory to the Lender, and certified as true and correct by a Responsible Officer (or by any other officers or employees of the Borrower whom a Responsible Officer from time to time authorizes in writing to do so), and delivered to the Lender from time to time solely for the Lender’s convenience in maintaining records of the Collateral. Any Borrower’s failure to deliver any of such items to the Lender shall not affect, terminate, modify, or otherwise limit the Liens of the Lender on the Collateral.


	2.1.5 Revolving Credit Note.

The obligation of the Borrowers to pay the Revolving Loan, with interest, shall be evidenced by an amended and restated revolving promissory note (as from time to time extended, amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Revolving Credit Note”) substantially in the form of EXHIBIT B-1 attached hereto and made a part hereof, with appropriate insertions. The Revolving Credit Note shall be dated as of the Closing Date, shall be payable to the order of the Lender at the times provided in the Revolving Credit Note, and shall be in the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Committed Amount. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that, if the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan outstanding from time to time exceeds the face amount of the Revolving Credit Note, the excess shall bear interest at the Post-Default Rate for the Revolving Loan and shall be payable, with accrued interest, ON DEMAND. The Revolving Credit Note shall not operate as a novation of any of the Obligations or nullify, discharge, or release any such Obligations or the continuing contractual relationship of the parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.


	2.1.6 Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Loan.

The Borrowers shall make the mandatory prepayments (each a “Revolving Loan Mandatory Prepayment” and collectively, the “Revolving Loan Mandatory Prepayments”) of the Revolving Loan at any time and from time to time in such amounts requested by the Lender pursuant to Section 2.1.3 (Borrowing Base) in order to cover any Borrowing Base Deficiency.


	2.1.7 Optional Prepayments of Revolving Loan.

The Borrowers shall have the option at any time and from time to time to prepay (each a “Revolving Loan Optional Prepayment” and collectively the “Revolving Loan Optional Prepayments”) the Revolving Loan, in whole or in part without premium or penalty.


	2.1.8 The Collateral Account.

The Borrowers will deposit, or cause to be deposited, all Items of Payment to a bank account designated by the Lender and from which the Lender alone has power of access and withdrawal (the “Collateral Account”). Each deposit shall be made not later than the next Business Day after the date of receipt of the Items of Payment. The Items of Payment shall be deposited in precisely the form received, except for the endorsements of the Borrowers where necessary to permit the collection of any such Items of Payment, which endorsement the Borrowers hereby agree to make. In the event the Borrowers fail to do so, the Borrowers hereby authorize the Lender to make the endorsement in the name of any or all of the Borrowers. Prior to such a deposit, the Borrowers will not commingle any Items of Payment with any of the Borrowers’ other funds or property, but will hold them separate and apart in trust and for the account of the Lender.

In addition, if so directed by the Lender, the Borrowers shall direct the mailing of all Items of Payment from their Account Debtors to one or more post-office boxes designated by the Lender, or to such other additional or replacement post-office boxes pursuant

to the request of the Lender from time to time (collectively, the “Lockbox”). The Lender shall have unrestricted and exclusive access to the Lockbox.

The Borrowers hereby authorize the Lender to inspect all Items of Payment, endorse all Items of Payment in the name of any or all of the Borrowers, and deposit such Items of Payment in the Collateral Account. The Lender reserves the right, exercised in its sole and absolute discretion from time to time, to provide to the Collateral Account credit prior to final collection of an Item of Payment and to disallow credit for any Item of Payment which is unsatisfactory to the Lender. In the event Items of Payment are returned to the Lender for any reason whatsoever, the Lender may, in the exercise of its discretion from time to time, forward such Items of Payment a second time. Any returned Items of Payment shall be charged back to the Collateral Account, the Revolving Loan Account, or other account, as appropriate.

The Lender will apply the whole or any part of the collected funds credited to the Collateral Account against the Revolving Loan (or with respect to Items of Payment that are not proceeds of Accounts or after an Event of Default, against any of the Obligations) or credit such collected funds to a depository account of any or all of the Borrowers with the Lender (or an Affiliate of the Lender), the order and method of such application to be in the sole discretion of the Lender.


	2.1.9 Revolving Loan Account.

The Lender will establish and maintain a loan account on its books (the “Revolving Loan Account”) to which the Lender will (a) debit (i) the principal amount of each advance of the Revolving Loan made by the Lender hereunder as of the date made, (ii) the amount of any interest accrued on the Revolving Loan as and when due, and (iii) any other amounts due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lender from time to time under the provisions of this Agreement in connection with the Revolving Loan, including, without limitation, Enforcement Costs, Fees, late charges, and service, collection and audit fees, as and when due and payable, and (b) credit all payments made by the Borrowers to the Lender on account of the Revolving Loan as of the date made including, without limitation, funds credited to the Revolving Loan Account from the Collateral Account. The Lender may debit the Revolving Loan Account for the amount of any Item of Payment that is returned to the Lender unpaid. All credit entries to the Revolving Loan Account are conditional and shall be readjusted as of the date made if final and indefeasible payment is not received by the Lender in cash or solvent credits. Any and all periodic or other statements or reconciliations, and the information contained in those statements or reconciliations, of the Revolving Loan Account shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Borrowers in all respects, absent manifest error, unless the Lender receives specific written objection thereto from any Borrower within thirty (30) Business Days after such statement or reconciliation shall have been sent by the Lender.


	2.1.10 Revolving Credit Unused Line Fee.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender a revolving credit facility fee (collectively, the “Revolving Credit Unused Line Fees” and individually, a “Revolving Credit Unused Line Fee”) in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum of the average daily unused and undisbursed portion of the Revolving Credit Committed Amount in effect from time to time accruing during each quarter. The accrued and unpaid portion of the

Revolving Credit Unused Line Fee shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Lender on the first day of each quarter, commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

Section 2.2 The Letter of Credit Facility.


	2.2.1 Letters of Credit.

Subject to and upon the provisions of this Agreement, and as a part of the Revolving Credit Commitment, any of the Borrowers, upon the prior approval of the Lender, may obtain standby letters of credit (as the same may from time to time be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, each a “Letter of Credit” and collectively the “Letters of Credit”) from the Lender from time to time from the Closing Date until the Business Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The Borrowers will not be entitled to obtain a Letter of Credit hereunder unless after giving effect to the request, the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan and of the Letter of Credit Obligations would not exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Credit Committed Amount or (ii) the most current Borrowing Base.


	2.2.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

Prior to or simultaneously with the opening of each Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender, a letter of credit fee (each a “Letter of Credit Fee” and collectively the “Letter of Credit Fees”) in an amount equal to one and three quarter percent (1.75%) per annum of the face amount of the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit Fees shall be paid upon the opening of each Letter of Credit and upon each anniversary thereof, if any. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender all other reasonable and customary amendment, negotiation, processing, transfer or other fees to the extent and as and when required by the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement. All Letter of Credit Fees and all such other additional fees are included in and are a part of the “Fees” payable by the Borrowers under the provisions of this Agreement and are a part of the Obligations.


	2.2.3 Terms of Letters of Credit; Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit.

Each Letter of Credit shall (a) be opened pursuant to a Letter of Credit Agreement and (b) expire on a date not later than the Business Day preceding the Revolving Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, if any Letter of Credit does have an expiration date later than the Business Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date (each a “Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit”), effective as of the Business Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date and without prior notice to or the consent of the Borrowers, the Lender shall make advances under the Revolving Loan for the account of the Borrowers in the aggregate face amount of all such Letters of Credit. The Lender shall deposit the proceeds of such advances into one or more non-interest bearing accounts with and in the name of the Lender and over which the Lender alone shall have exclusive power of access and withdrawal (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account”). The Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account is to be held by the Lender as additional collateral and security for any Letter of Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit. The Borrowers hereby assign, pledge, grant and set over to the Lender a first priority security interest in, and Lien on, all of the funds on deposit in the

Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account, together with any and all Proceeds and products thereof as additional collateral and security for the Letter of Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Lender shall be entitled to fund any draw or draft on any Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit from the monies on deposit in the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account without notice to or consent of the Borrowers or the Lender. The Borrowers further acknowledge and agree that the Lender’s election to fund any draw or draft on any Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit from the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral shall in no way limit, impair, lessen, reduce, release or otherwise adversely affect the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any Letter of Credit Obligations under or relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit. At such time as all Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit have expired and all Letter of Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit have been paid in full, the Lender agrees to apply the amount of any remaining funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account to the then unpaid balance of the Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility in such order and manner as the Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

The aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit at any one time outstanding and issued by the Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit, plus the amount of any unpaid Letter of Credit Fees accrued or scheduled to accrue thereon, and less the aggregate amount of all drafts issued under or purporting to have been issued under such Letters of Credit that have been paid by the Lender and for which the Lender has been reimbursed by the Borrowers in full in accordance with Section 2.2.5 (Payments of Letters of Credit) and the Letter of Credit Agreements, and for which the Lender has no further obligation or commitment to restore all or any portion of the amounts drawn and reimbursed, is herein called the “Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations”.


	2.2.4 Procedures for Letters of Credit.

The Borrowers shall give the Lender written notice at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the Borrowers desire the Lender to issue a Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be accompanied by a duly executed Letter of Credit Agreement specifying, among other things: (a) the name and address of the intended beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, (b) the requested face amount of the Letter of Credit, (c) whether the Letter of Credit is to be revocable or irrevocable, (d) the Business Day on which the Letter of Credit is to be opened and the date on which the Letter of Credit is to expire, (e) the terms of payment of any draft or drafts which may be drawn under the Letter of Credit, and (f) any other terms or provisions the Borrowers desire to be contained in the Letter of Credit. Such notice shall also be accompanied by such other information, certificates, confirmations, and other items as the Lender may require to assure that the Letter of Credit is to be issued in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and a Letter of Credit Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of a Letter of Credit Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail and control unless otherwise expressly provided in the Letter of Credit Agreement. Upon (x) receipt of such notice, (y) payment of all Letter of Credit Fees and all other Fees payable in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and (z) receipt of a duly executed Letter of Credit Agreement, the Lender shall process such notice and

Letter of Credit Agreement in accordance with its customary procedures and open such Letter of Credit on the Business Day specified in such notice.


	2.2.5 Payments of Letters of Credit.

The Borrowers hereby promise to pay to the Lender, ON DEMAND and in United States Dollars, the following which are herein collectively referred to as the “Current Letter of Credit Obligations”:


	(a) the amount which the Lender has paid or will be required to pay under each draft or draw on a Letter of Credit, whether such demand be in advance of the Lender’s payment or for reimbursement for such payment;

	(b) any and all reasonable charges and expenses which the Lender may pay or incur relative to the Letter of Credit and/or such draws or drafts; and

	(c) interest on the amounts described in (a) and (b) not paid by the Borrowers as and when due and payable under the provisions of (a) and (b) above from the day the same are due and payable until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the then current highest rate of interest on the Revolving Loan.

In addition, the Borrowers hereby promise to pay any and all other Letter of Credit Obligations as and when due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Letter of Credit Agreements. The obligation of the Borrowers to pay Current Letter of Credit Obligations and all other Letter of Credit Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers or any other account party may have or have had against the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, the Lender, or any other Person, including, without limitation, any defense based on the failure of any draft or draw to conform to the terms of such Letter of Credit, any draft or other document proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid, or the legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, any draft or other documents presented with any draft, any Letter of Credit Agreement, this Agreement, or any of the other Financing Documents, all whether or not the Lender had actual or constructive knowledge of the same, and irrespective of any Collateral, security or guarantee therefore or right of offset with respect thereto and irrespective of any other circumstances whatsoever which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrowers for any Letter of Credit Obligations, in bankruptcy or otherwise; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse the Lender for any wrongful payment under such Letter of Credit made as a result of the Lender’s willful misconduct. The obligation of the Borrowers to pay the Letter of Credit Obligations shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Lender or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against any Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of such obligation or against any Collateral, security or guarantee therefore or right of offset with respect thereto.

The Letter of Credit Obligations shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of all or any portion of the Letter of Credit Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Person, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor, or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Person, or any substantial part of such Person’s property, all as though such payments had not been made.


	2.2.6 Change in Law; Increased Cost.

If any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof shall either (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by the Lender, or (b) impose on the Lender any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Letter of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clauses (a) or (b) above shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of issuing, maintaining or extending the Letter of Credit or the cost to Lender of funding any obligation under or in connection with the Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Lender, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Lender from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased cost, together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per annum equal to the then highest current rate of interest on the Revolving Loan. A certificate as to such increased cost incurred by the Lender, submitted by the Lender to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.


	2.2.7 General Letter of Credit Provisions.

The Borrowers hereby instruct the Lender to pay any draft complying with the terms of any Letter of Credit irrespective of any instructions of the Borrowers to the contrary. The Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of the beneficiary and other users of any Letter of Credit. The Lender and its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents shall not be responsible for and the Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold the Lender and its branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents harmless from and against all liability, loss and expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) incurred by the Lender and/or its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents relative to and/or as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrowers to perform the agreements hereunder and under any Letter of Credit Agreement, (b) any Letter of Credit Agreement, this Agreement, any Letter of Credit and any draft, draw and/or acceptance under or purported to be under any Letter of Credit, (c) any action taken or omitted by the Lender and/or any of its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents at the request of the Borrowers, (d) any failure or inability to perform in accordance with the terms of any Letter of Credit by reason of any control or restriction rightfully or wrongfully exercised by any de facto or de jure Governmental Authority, group or individual asserting or exercising governmental or paramount powers, and/or (e) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Lender and/or any of its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents.

Except for willful misconduct, the Lender and its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents, shall not be liable or responsible in any respect for any (a)

error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any one or more messages or advices in connection with any Letter of Credit, whether transmitted by cable, telegraph, mail or otherwise and despite any cipher or code which may be employed, and/or (b) action, inaction or omission which may be taken or suffered by it or them in good faith or through inadvertence in identifying or failing to identify any beneficiary or otherwise in connection with any Letter of Credit.

Any Letter of Credit may be amended, modified or revoked only upon the receipt by the Lender from the Borrowers and the beneficiary (including any transferee and/or assignee of the original beneficiary), of a written consent and request therefore.

If any Laws, order of court and/or ruling or regulation of any Governmental Authority of the United States (or any state thereof) and/or any country other than the United States permits a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit to require the Lender and/or any of its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents to pay drafts under or purporting to be under a Letter of Credit after the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse the Lender, as appropriate, for any such payment pursuant to provisions of Section 2.2.6 (Change in Law; Increased Cost).

Except as may otherwise be specifically provided in a Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Agreement, the laws of the State and the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, 1993 Revision, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500 shall govern the Letters of Credit. The Laws, rules, provisions and regulations of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits are hereby incorporated by reference. In the event of a conflict between the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits and the laws of the State, the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits shall prevail.

Section 2.3 General Financing Provisions.


	2.3.1 Borrowers’ Representatives.

The Borrowers hereby represent and warrant to the Lender that each of them will derive benefits, directly and indirectly, from each Letter of Credit and from each Loan, both in their separate capacity and as a member of the integrated group to which each of the Borrowers belong and because the successful operation of the integrated group is dependent upon the continued successful performance of the functions of the integrated group as a whole, because (a) the terms of the consolidated financing provided under this Agreement are more favorable than would otherwise be obtainable by the Borrowers individually, and (b) the Borrowers’ additional administrative and other costs and reduced flexibility associated with individual financing arrangements which would otherwise be required if obtainable would substantially reduce the value to the Borrowers of the financing. The Borrowers in the discretion of their respective managements are to agree among themselves as to the allocation of the benefits of Letters of Credit and the proceeds of the Loan, provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Lender at the time of allocation that each benefit and use of proceeds is a Permitted Use.

For administrative convenience, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Versar as the Borrowers’ attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution (with the prior

written consent of the Lender in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion), in the name of Versar or in the name of the Borrowers or otherwise to take any and all actions with respect to the this Agreement, the other Financing Documents, the Obligations and/or the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Proceeds thereof) as Versar may so elect from time to time, including, without limitation, actions to (i) request advances under the Loan, apply for and direct the benefits of Letters of Credits, and direct the Lender to disburse or credit the proceeds of any Loan directly to an account of Versar, any one or more of the Borrowers or otherwise, which direction shall evidence the making of such Loan and shall constitute the acknowledgment by each of the Borrowers of the receipt of the proceeds of such Loan or the benefit of such Letter of Credit, (ii) enter into, execute, deliver, amend, modify, restate, substitute, extend and/or renew this Agreement, any Additional Borrower Joinder Supplement, any other Financing Documents, security agreements, mortgages, deposit account agreements, instruments, certificates, waivers, letter of credit applications, releases, documents and agreements from time to time, and (iii) endorse any check or other item of payment in the name of the Borrowers or in the name of Versar. The foregoing appointment is coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked without the prior written consent of the Lender, and may be exercised from time to time through Versar’s duly authorized officer, officers or other Person or Persons designated by Versar to act from time to time on behalf of Versar.

Each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make Loans to any one or more of the Borrowers, and hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit for the account of any or all of the Borrowers, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement upon the written, oral or telephone request of any one or more of the Persons who is from time to time a Responsible Officer of a Borrower under the provisions of the most recent certificate of corporate resolutions and/or incumbency of the Borrowers on file with the Lender and also upon the written, oral or telephone request of any one of the Persons who is from time to time a Responsible Officer of Versar under the provisions of the most recent certificate of corporate resolutions and/or incumbency for Versar on file with the Lender.

The Lender assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors, mistakes, and/or discrepancies in the oral, telephonic, written or other transmissions of any instructions, orders, requests and confirmations between the Lender and the Borrowers in connection with the Credit Facilities, any Loan, any Letter of Credit or any other transaction in connection with the provisions of this Agreement. Without implying any limitation on the joint and several nature of the Obligations, the Lender agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers may create reasonable inter-company indebtedness between or among the Borrowers with respect to the allocation of the benefits and proceeds of the advances and Credit Facilities under this Agreement. The Borrowers agree among themselves, and the Lender consents to that agreement, that each Borrower shall have rights of contribution from all of the other Borrowers to the extent such Borrower incurs Obligations in excess of the proceeds of the Loan received by, or allocated to purposes for the direct benefit of, such Borrower. All such indebtedness and rights shall be, and are hereby agreed by the Borrowers to be, subordinate in priority and payment to the indefeasible repayment in full in cash of the Obligations, and, unless the Lender agrees in writing otherwise, shall not be exercised or repaid in whole or in part until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Borrowers agree that all of such inter-company indebtedness and rights of contribution are part of the Collateral and secure

the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby waives all rights of counterclaim, recoupment and offset between or among themselves arising on account of that indebtedness and otherwise. Each Borrower shall not evidence the inter-company indebtedness or rights of contribution by note or other instrument, and shall not secure such indebtedness or rights of contribution with any Lien or security. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the amount covered by each Borrower under the Obligations (including, without limitation, Section 2.3.8 (Guaranty)) shall be limited to an aggregate amount (after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Borrower in respect of the Obligations) which, together with other amounts owing by such Borrowers to the Lender under the Obligations, is equal to the largest amount that would not be subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provisions of any applicable, comparable state or other Laws.


	2.3.2 Use of Proceeds of the Loans.

The proceeds of each advance under the Loans shall be used by the Borrowers for Permitted Uses, and for no other purposes except as may otherwise be agreed by the Lender in writing. The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loans promptly.


	2.3.3 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All applicable Fees and interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. Any change in the interest rate on any of the Obligations resulting from a change in the Prime Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Prime Rate is announced.


	2.3.4 Maximum Interest Rate.

In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate permissible for corporate borrowers under applicable law for loans of the type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section, have been paid or accrued if the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. In the event that a court determines that the Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Lender shall refund to the Borrowers such excess.


	2.3.5 Payments.

All payments of the Obligations, including, without limitation, principal, interest, Prepayments, and Fees, shall be paid by the Borrowers without setoff, recoupment or counterclaim to the Lender in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the due date of such payment. All payments received by the Lender after such time shall be deemed to have been received by the Lender for purposes of computing interest and Fees and otherwise as of the next Business Day. Payments shall not be considered received by the Lender until such payments are paid to the Lender in immediately available funds to the Lender’s principal office in McLean, Virginia or at such other location as the Lender may at any time and from time to time notify the Borrowers. Alternatively, at its sole discretion, the Lender may charge any deposit account of the Borrowers at the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender with all or any part of any amount due to the Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents to the extent that the Borrowers shall have not otherwise tendered payment to the Lender.

The Lender is authorized to deduct any payment (including payments of principal, interest and/or Fees as provided herein or in the Notes) from the Borrowers’ Account Number 4113103748 on or after the date the payment is due; provided, however, that such authorization shall not be deemed to relieve the Borrowers from their obligation to make such payment when it is due and, further provided, that the Lender will provide the Borrowers with notice of any such deduction.


	2.3.6 Liens; Setoff.

The Borrowers hereby grant to the Lender as additional collateral and security for all of the Obligations, a continuing Lien on any and all monies, Investment Property, and other property of the Borrowers and the proceeds thereof, now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to, the Lender, and/or any Affiliate of the Lender, from or for the account of, the Borrowers, and also upon any and all deposit accounts (general or special) and credits of the Borrowers, if any, with the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender, at any time existing, excluding any deposit accounts held by the Borrowers in their capacity as trustee for Persons who are not Borrowers or Affiliates of the Borrowers. Without implying any limitation on any other rights the Lender may have under the Financing Documents or applicable Laws, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrowers at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers, to set off, appropriate and apply any or all items hereinabove referred to against all Obligations then outstanding (whether or not then due), all in such order and manner as shall be determined by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.


	2.3.7 Requirements of Law.

In the event that the Lender shall have determined in good faith that (a) the adoption of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, or (b) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof or (c) compliance by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender, as a consequence of the obligations of the Lender hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender would have

achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of the Lender and the corporation controlling the Lender, with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Lender, in its discretion, to be material, then from time to time, after submission by the Lender to the Borrowers of a written request therefore and a statement of the basis for such determination, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts in order to compensate the Lender or its controlling corporation for any such reduction.


	2.3.8 Guaranty.

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Lender:


	(i) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the collectibility) by the other Borrowers of the Obligations, including unpaid and accrued interest thereon, in each case when due and payable, all according to the terms of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Financing Documents;

	(ii) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the collectibility) by the other Borrowers of all other sums and charges which may at any time be due and payable in accordance with this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Financing Documents;

	(iii) the due and punctual performance by the other Borrowers of all of the other terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Financing Documents; and

	(iv) all the other Obligations of the other Borrowers.

(b) The obligations and liabilities of each Borrower as a guarantor under this Section 2.3.8 shall be absolute and unconditional and joint and several, irrespective of the genuineness, validity, priority, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Notes or any of the Financing Documents or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. Each Borrower in its capacity as a guarantor expressly agrees that the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice to or further assent of such Borrower and without in any way releasing, affecting or in any way impairing the joint and several obligations and liabilities of such Borrower as a guarantor hereunder:


	(i) waive compliance with, or any defaults under, or grant any other indulgences under or with respect to any of the Financing Documents;

	(ii) modify, amend, change or terminate any provisions of any of the Financing Documents;

7.2.1 Acceleration.

The Lender may declare any or all of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Documents to the contrary, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or of dishonor, or other notice of any kind, all of which the Borrowers hereby waive.

7.2.2 Further Advances.

The Lender may from time to time without notice to the Borrowers suspend, terminate or limit any further advances, loans or other extensions of credit under the Commitments, under this Agreement and/or under any of the other Financing Documents. Further, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default specified in Section 7.1.6 (Receiver; Bankruptcy) or Section 7.1.7 (Involuntary Bankruptcy, etc.), the Revolving Credit Commitment and any agreement in any of the Financing Documents to provide additional credit and/or to issue Letters of Credit shall immediately and automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of the Notes (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations then outstanding, shall immediately become due and payable without further action of any kind and without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

7.2.3 Uniform Commercial Code.

The Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable Laws. Upon demand by the Lender, the Borrowers shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Lender, at a place designated by the Lender. The Lender or its agents may without notice from time to time enter upon any Borrower’s premises to take possession of the Collateral, to remove it, to render it unusable, to process it or otherwise prepare it for sale, or to sell or otherwise dispose of it.

Any written notice of the sale, disposition or other intended action by the Lender with respect to the Collateral which is sent by regular mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrowers at the address set forth in Section 8.1 (Notices), or such other address of the Borrowers which may from time to time be shown on the Lender’s records, at least ten (10) days prior to such sale, disposition or other action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to the Borrowers. The Lender may alternatively or additionally give such notice in any other commercially reasonable manner. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Lender to give any notice not required by applicable Laws.

If any consent, approval, or authorization of any state, municipal or other Governmental Authority or of any other Person or of any Person having any interest therein, should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, the Borrowers agree to execute all such applications and other instruments, and to take all other action, as may be required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization.

The Borrowers recognize that the Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral consisting of Investment Property by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other applicable Federal and state Laws. The Lender may, therefore, in its discretion, take such steps as it may deem

appropriate to comply with such Laws and may, for example, at any sale of the Collateral consisting of securities restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intention, including, without limitation, a requirement that the Persons making such purchases represent and agree to the satisfaction of the Lender that they are purchasing such securities for their account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale of any thereof. The Borrowers covenant and agree to do or cause to be done promptly all such acts and things as the Lender may request from time to time and as may be necessary to offer and/or sell the securities or any part thereof in a manner which is valid and binding and in conformance with all applicable Laws. Upon any such sale or disposition, the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral consisting of securities so sold.

7.2.4 Specific Rights With Regard to Collateral.

In addition to all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or as shall exist at law or in equity from time to time, the Lender may (but shall be under no obligation to), without notice to any of the Borrowers, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender and/or in the name of any or all of the Borrowers or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of the Borrowers and without notice to the Borrowers:

	(i) notify the Post Office authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to the Borrowers to such address or Post Office Box as the Lender may designate and receive and open all mail addressed to any of the Borrowers; and

	(j) take any other action necessary or beneficial to realize upon or dispose of the Collateral or to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

7.2.5 Application of Proceeds.

Any proceeds of sale or other disposition of the Collateral will be applied by the Lender to the payment first of any and all Enforcement Costs, and any balance of such proceeds will be applied to the Obligations in such order and manner as the Lender shall determine. If the sale or other disposition of the Collateral fails to fully satisfy the Obligations, the Borrowers shall remain liable to the Lender for any deficiency.

7.2.6 Performance by Lender.

The Lender without notice to or demand upon the Borrowers and without waiving or releasing any of the Obligations or any Default or Event of Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of the Borrowers, and may enter upon the premises of the Borrowers for that purpose and take all such action thereon as the Lender may consider necessary or appropriate for such purpose and each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact to do so, with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender, in the name of any or all of the Borrowers or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of the Borrowers and without notice to the Borrowers. All sums so paid or advanced by the Lender together with interest thereon from the date of payment, advance or incurring until paid in full at the Post-Default Rate and all costs and expenses, shall be deemed part of the Enforcement Costs, shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Lender on demand, and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations.

7.2.7 Other Remedies.

The Lender may from time to time proceed to protect or enforce its rights by an action or actions at law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Documents, or for an injunction against the violation of any of the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, or in aid of the exercise or execution of any right, remedy or power granted in this Agreement, the Financing Documents, and/or applicable Laws. The Lender is authorized to offset and apply to all or any part of the Obligations all moneys, credits and other property of any nature whatsoever of any or all of the

Borrowers now or at any time hereafter in the possession of, in transit to or from, under the control or custody of, or on deposit with, the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender.
