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;
(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) 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; 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 ▇▇▇▇ 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.
11.
9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION.
When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may 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.
9.4 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.
9.5 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. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the
Collateral.
9.6 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. 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 is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No
waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the
specific instance and purpose for which it was given.
9.7 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.
10. NOTICES
All notices or demands by any party about this Agreement or any other
related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by an
overnight delivery service, by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, or by telefacsimile to the addresses set forth at the beginning of
this Agreement. A party may change its notice address by giving the other party
written notice.

11. CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles
of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the State and Federal courts in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California.
BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM
OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED
TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS

12.7 SURVIVAL.
All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement
continue in full force while any Obligations remain outstanding. The obligations
of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank will survive until all statutes of
limitations for actions that may be brought against Bank have run.
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, (iii) as required by law,

is prohibited from disclosing the information.
12.9 ATTORNEYS' FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES.
In any action or proceeding between Borrower and Bank arising out of

amount on the prepayment date in a wholesale funding market matching maturity,
remaining principal and interest amounts and principal and interest payment
dates (the aggregate payments received are the "Current Market Rate Amount").
Bank may select any wholesale funding market rate as the Current Market Rate.
Second, Bank will take the prepayment amount and calculate the present value of
each remaining principal and interest payment which, without prepayment, the
Bank would have received during the term of the Fixed Obligations using the Base
Interest Rate. The sum of the present value calculations is the "▇▇▇▇ to Market
Amount." Third, the Bank will subtract the ▇▇▇▇ to Market Amount from the
Current Market Rate Amount. Any amount greater than zero is the Prepayment Fee.
"PRIME RATE" is Bank's most recently announced "prime rate," even if
it is not Bank's lowest rate.
"RESPONSIBLE OFFICER" is each of the Chief Executive Officer, the
President, the Chief Financial Officer and the Controller of Borrower.

Borrower's debt to Bank (and identified as subordinated by Borrower and Bank).
"SUBSIDIARY" is for any Person, or any other business entity of which
more than 50% of the voting stock or other equity interests is owned or
controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Person or one or more Affiliates of
the Person.
18.
"TANGIBLE NET WORTH" is, on any date, the consolidated total assets of
Borrower and its Subsidiaries minus, (i) any amounts attributable to (a)
goodwill, (b) intangible items such as unamortized debt discount and expense,
Patents, trade and service marks and names, Copyrights and research and
development expenses except prepaid expenses, and (c) reserves not already
deducted from assets, and (ii) Total Liabilities.
"TOTAL LIABILITIES" is on any day, obligations that should, under
GAAP, be classified as liabilities on Borrower's consolidated balance sheet,
including all Indebtedness, and current portion Subordinated Debt allowed to be
paid, but excluding all other Subordinated Debt.
"TREASURY YIELD PERCENTAGE" is the average weekly yield (of the week
ending figures) in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release on
actively traded U.S. Treasury obligations of similar maturity to the principal
being repaid or if a Statistical Release is not published, the arithmetic
average (to the nearest .01%) of the per annum yields to maturity for each
Business Day during the week (ending at least two Business Days before the
