All references to any instruments or agreements, including references to any of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements shall include any and all modifications or amendments thereto and any and all extensions or renewals thereof.

2. Loan Facility.

(a) Revolving Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Ancillary Agreements, Laurus shall make revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Companies from time to time during the Term which, in the aggregate at any time outstanding, will not exceed the lesser of (x) (I) the Capital Availability Amount minus (II) such reserves as Laurus may reasonably in its good faith judgment deem proper and necessary from time to time (the “Reserves”) and (y) an amount equal to (I) the Accounts Availability minus (II) the Reserves. The amount derived at any time from Section 2(a)(i)(y)(I) minus 2(a)(i)(y)(II) shall be referred to as the “Formula Amount.” The Companies shall, jointly and severally, execute and deliver to Laurus on the Closing Date the Secured Revolving Note and the Secured Convertible Term Note. The Companies hereby each acknowledge and agree that Laurus’ obligation to purchase the Secured Revolving Note and the Secured Convertible Term Note from the Companies on the Closing Date shall be contingent upon the satisfaction (or waiver by Laurus in its sole discretion) of the items and matters set forth in the closing checklist provided by Laurus to the Companies on or prior to the Closing Date. The Companies hereby each further acknowledge and agree that, immediately prior to each borrowing hereunder and immediately after giving effect thereto, the Companies shall be deemed to have certified to Laurus that at the time of each such proposed borrowing and also after giving effect thereto (i) there shall exist no Event of Default, (ii) all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Companies in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are true, correct and complete and (iii) all of each Company’s and its respective Subsidiaries’ covenant requirements under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements have been met. The Companies hereby agree to provide a certificate confirming the foregoing concurrently with each request for a borrowing hereunder.

(ii) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth above, if requested by any Company, Laurus retains the right to lend to such Company from time to time such amounts in excess of such limitations as Laurus may determine in its sole discretion. In connection with each such request by one or more Companies, the Companies shall be deemed to have certified, as of the time of such proposed borrowing and immediately after giving effect thereto, to the satisfaction of all Overadvance Conditions. For purposes hereof, “Overadvance Conditions” means (i) no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing as of such date; (ii) all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Companies in connection with the Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be true, correct and complete as of such date; and (iii) the Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall have taken all action necessary to grant Laurus “control” over all of the Companies’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ Deposit Accounts (the “Control Accounts”), with any agreements establishing “control” to be in form and substance satisfactory to Laurus. “Control” over such Control Accounts shall be


Security Agreement		2

released upon the indefeasible repayment in full and termination of the Overadvance (together with all accrued interest and fees which remain unpaid in respect thereof). The Companies hereby agree to provide a certificate confirming the satisfaction of the Overadvance Conditions concurrently with the request for same.

(iii) The Companies acknowledge that Laurus may reasonably in its good faith judgment and based on reasonable historical account receivable collection trends adjust the advance percentages during the Term in one or more increases or decreases in determining Accounts Availability and each of the Companies hereby consent to any such increases or decreases which may limit or restrict advances requested by the Companies.

(iv) If any interest, fees, costs or charges payable to Laurus hereunder are not paid when due, each of the Companies shall thereby be deemed to have requested, and Laurus is hereby authorized at its discretion to make and charge to the Companies’ account, a Loan as of such date in an amount equal to such unpaid interest, fees, costs or charges.

(v) If any Company at any time fails to perform or observe any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Laurus may, but need not, perform or observe such covenant on behalf and in the name, place and stead of such Company (or, at Laurus’ option, in Laurus’ name) and may, but need not, take any and all other actions which Laurus may deem necessary to cure or correct such failure (including the payment of taxes, the satisfaction of Liens, the performance of obligations owed to Account Debtors, lessors or other obligors, the procurement and maintenance of insurance, the execution of assignments, security agreements and financing statements, and the endorsement of instruments). The amount of all monies expended and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by Laurus in connection with or as a result of the performance or observance of such agreements or the taking of such action by Laurus shall be charged to the Companies’ account as a Revolving Loan and added to the Obligations. To facilitate Laurus’ performance or observance of such covenants by each Company, each Company hereby irrevocably appoints Laurus, or Laurus’ delegate, acting alone, as such Company’s attorney in fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) with the right (but not the duty) from time to time to create, prepare, complete, execute, deliver, endorse or file in the name and on behalf of such Company any and all instruments, documents, assignments, security agreements, financing statements, applications for insurance and other agreements and writings required to be obtained, executed, delivered or endorsed by such Company.

(vi) Laurus will account to Company Agent monthly with a statement of all Loans and other advances, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and such account rendered by Laurus shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive unless Laurus is notified by Company Agent in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days of the date each account was rendered specifying the item or items to which objection is made.

(vii) During the Term, the Companies may borrow and prepay Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

(viii) Intentionally left blank.

(b) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Ancillary Agreements, Laurus shall make a term loan (the “Term Loan”) to Company Agent (for the benefit of Companies) in an aggregate amount equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000). The Term Loan shall be advanced on the Closing Date. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Secured Convertible Term Note.

3. Repayment of the Loans. The Companies (a) may prepay the Obligations from time to time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Notes (and Section 17 hereof if such prepayment is due to a termination of this Agreement); (b) shall repay on the Maturity Date (as defined in the Secured Convertible Term Note) (i) the then aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges and: (ii) all other amounts owed Laurus under the Secured Convertible Term Note; (c) shall repay on the expiration of the Term (i) the then aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges and; (ii) all other amounts owed Laurus under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements; and (c) subject to Section 2(a)(ii), shall repay on any day on which the then aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans are in excess of the Formula Amount at such time, Loans in an amount equal to such excess. Any payments of principal, interest, fees or any other amounts payable hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement shall be made prior to 12:00 noon (New York time) on the due date thereof in immediately available funds.

4. Procedure for Revolving Loans. Company Agent may by written notice request a borrowing of Revolving Loans prior to 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of its request to incur, on the next Business Day, a Revolving Loan. Together with each request for a Revolving Loan (or at such other intervals as Laurus may request), Company Agent shall deliver to Laurus a Borrowing Base Certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, which shall be certified as true and correct by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of Company Agent together with all supporting documentation relating thereto. All Revolving Loans shall be disbursed from whichever office or other place Laurus may designate from time to time and shall be charged to the Companies’ account on Laurus’ books. The proceeds of each Revolving Loan made by Laurus shall be made available to Company Agent on the Business Day following the Business Day so requested in accordance with the terms of this Section 4 by way of credit to the applicable Company’s operating account maintained with such bank as Company Agent designated to Laurus. Any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder may be charged to the Companies’ account and shall constitute Revolving Loans.

5. Interest and Payments.

(a) Interest.

(i) Except as modified by Section 5(a)(iii) below, the Companies shall jointly and severally pay interest at the Contract Rate on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan until such time as such Loan is collected in full in good funds in dollars of the United States of America.


Security Agreement		4

(ii) Interest and payments shall be computed on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days. At Laurus’ option, Laurus may charge the Companies’ account for said interest.

(iii) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the Contract Rate shall automatically be increased as set forth in the Notes (such increased rate, the “Default Rate”), and all outstanding Obligations, including unpaid interest, shall continue to accrue interest from the date of such Event of Default at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations.

(iv) In no event shall the aggregate interest payable hereunder or under any Note exceed the maximum rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation, as in effect from time to time (the “Maximum Legal Rate”), and if any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, interest payable under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall be computed on the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate (so that such interest will not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate).

(v) The Companies shall jointly and severally pay principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any Ancillary Agreement, without any deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any set-off or counterclaim.

The foregoing payment is referred to herein as the “LCM Payment.” Such payment shall be deemed fully earned on the Closing Date and shall not be subject to rebate or proration for any reason.

(ii) Overadvance Payment. Without affecting Laurus’ rights hereunder in the event the Loans exceed the Formula Amount (each such event, an “Overadvance”), all such Overadvances shall bear additional interest at a rate equal to one percent (1%) per month of the amount of such Overadvances for all times such amounts shall be in excess of the Formula Amount.

Except as disclosed on Schedule 12(c), neither the offer, issuance or sale of any of the Notes or the Warrants or the issuance of any of the Note Shares or the Warrant Shares, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby will result in a change in the price or number of any securities of the Parent outstanding, under anti-dilution or other similar provisions contained in or affecting any such securities.

20. Remedies. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Laurus shall have the right to demand repayment in full of all Obligations, whether or not otherwise due. Until all Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly satisfied, Laurus shall retain its Lien in all Collateral. Laurus shall have, in addition to all other rights provided herein and in each Ancillary Agreement, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, and under other applicable law, all other legal and equitable rights to which Laurus may be entitled, including the right to take immediate possession of the Collateral, to require each Company to assemble the Collateral, at Companies’ joint and several expense, and to make it available to Laurus at a place designated by Laurus which is reasonably convenient to both parties and to enter any of the premises of any Company or wherever the Collateral shall be located, with or without force or process of law, and to keep and store the same on said premises until sold (and if said premises


Security Agreement		34

be the property of any Company, such Company agrees not to charge Laurus for storage thereof), and the right to apply for the appointment of a receiver for such Company’s property. Further, Laurus may, at any time or times after the occurrence of an Event of Default, sell and deliver all Collateral held by or for Laurus at public or private sale for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Laurus, in Laurus’ sole discretion, deems advisable or Laurus may otherwise recover upon the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner as Laurus, in its sole discretion, deems advisable. The requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to Company Agent at Company Agent’s address as shown in Laurus’ records, at least ten (10) days before the time of the event of which notice is being given. Laurus may be the purchaser at any sale, if it is public. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing remedies, Laurus is granted permission to use all of each Company’s Intellectual Property. The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all costs and expenses of sale, including attorneys’ fees, and second to the payment (in whatever order Laurus elects) of all Obligations. After the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations, and after the payment by Laurus of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-608(a)(1) of the UCC (but only after Laurus has received what Laurus considers reasonable proof of a subordinate party’s security interest), the surplus, if any, shall be paid to Company Agent (for the benefit of the applicable Companies) or its representatives or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. The Companies shall remain jointly and severally liable to Laurus for any deficiency. The parties hereto each hereby agree that the exercise by any party hereto of any right granted to it or the exercise by any party hereto of any remedy available to it (including, without limitation, the issuance of a notice of redemption, a borrowing request and/or a notice of default), in each case, hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement shall not constitute confidential information and no party shall have any duty to the other party to maintain such information as confidential, except for the portions of such publicly filed documents that are subject to confidential treatment request made by the Companies to the SEC.

21. Waivers. To the full extent permitted by applicable law, each Company hereby waives (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or any other notes, commercial paper, Accounts, contracts, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and guaranties at any time held by Laurus on which such Company may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Laurus may do in this regard; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Laurus’ taking possession or control of, or to Laurus’ replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing Laurus to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws. Each Company acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.

22. Expenses. The Companies shall jointly and severally pay all of Laurus’ out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements of in-house or outside counsel and appraisers, in connection with (x) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(b)(iii), the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and (y) in connection with the prosecution or defense of any action, contest,


Security Agreement		35

dispute, suit or proceeding concerning any matter in any way arising out of, related to or connected with this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. The Companies shall also jointly and severally pay all of Laurus’ reasonable fees, charges, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel and appraisers, in connection with (a) the preparation, execution and delivery of any waiver, any amendment thereto or consent proposed or executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, (b) Laurus’ obtaining performance of the Obligations under this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, including, but not limited to, the enforcement or defense of Laurus’ security interests, assignments of rights and Liens hereunder as valid perfected security interests, (c) any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any Collateral, (d) any appraisals or reappraisals of any property (real or personal) pledged to Laurus by any Company or any of its Subsidiaries as Collateral for, or any other Person as security for, the Obligations hereunder and (e) any consultations in connection with any of the foregoing. The Companies shall also jointly and severally pay Laurus’ customary bank charges for all bank services (including wire transfers) performed or caused to be performed by Laurus for any Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any Company’s or such Subsidiary’s request or in connection with any Company’s loan account with Laurus. All such costs and expenses together with all filing, recording and search fees, taxes and interest payable by the Companies to Laurus shall be payable on demand and shall be secured by the Collateral. If any tax by any Governmental Authority is or may be imposed on or as a result of any transaction between any Company and/or any Subsidiary thereof, on the one hand, and Laurus on the other hand, which Laurus is or may be required to withhold or pay (including, without limitation, as a result of a breach by any Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Section 13(u) herein), the Companies hereby jointly and severally indemnifies and holds Laurus harmless in respect of such taxes, and the Companies will repay to Laurus the amount of any such taxes which shall be charged to the Companies’ account; and until the Companies shall furnish Laurus with indemnity therefor (or supply Laurus with evidence satisfactory to it that due provision for the payment thereof has been made), Laurus may hold without interest any balance standing to each Company’s credit and Laurus shall retain its Liens in any and all Collateral.

23. Assignment By Laurus. Laurus may assign any or all of the Obligations together with any or all of the security therefor to any Person and any such assignee shall succeed to all of Laurus’ rights with respect thereto; provided that Laurus shall not be permitted to effect any such assignment to a competitor of any Company unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon such assignment, Laurus shall be released from all responsibility for the Collateral to the extent same is assigned to any transferee. Laurus may from time to time sell or otherwise grant participations in any of the Obligations and the holder of any such participation shall, subject to the terms of any agreement between Laurus and such holder, be entitled to the same benefits as Laurus with respect to any security for the Obligations in which such holder is a participant. Each Company agrees that each such holder may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off and counterclaim with respect to its participation in the Obligations as fully as though such Company were directly indebted to such holder in the amount of such participation.

24. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Failure by Laurus to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any supplement hereto or thereto or any other agreement between or among any Company and Laurus or delay


Security Agreement		36

by Laurus in exercising the same, will not operate as a waiver; no waiver by Laurus will be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically stated. Laurus’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which Laurus may have.

25. Application of Payments. Each Company irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times hereafter received by Laurus from or on such Company’s behalf and each Company hereby irrevocably agrees that Laurus shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all payments received at any time or times hereafter against the Obligations hereunder in such manner as Laurus may deem advisable notwithstanding any entry by Laurus upon any of Laurus’ books and records.

26. Indemnity. Each Company hereby jointly and severally indemnifies and holds Laurus, and its respective affiliates, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an “Indemnified Person”), harmless from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of, or in any other way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to herein or therein and any actions or failures to act with respect to any of the foregoing, except to the extent that any such indemnified liability is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY COMPANY OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

27. Revival. The Companies further agree that to the extent any Company makes a payment or payments to Laurus, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

28. Borrowing Agency Provisions.

(a) Each Company hereby irrevocably designates Company Agent to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and


Security Agreement		37

deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Company, and hereby authorizes Laurus to pay over or credit all loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Company Agent.

(b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to the Companies and at their request. Laurus shall not incur any liability to any Company as a result thereof. To induce Laurus to do so and in consideration thereof, each Company hereby indemnifies Laurus and holds Laurus harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Laurus by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of the Companies as provided herein, reliance by Laurus on any request or instruction from Company Agent or any other action taken by Laurus with respect to this Paragraph 28.

(c) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and the Companies shall make payment upon the maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of the Companies shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by Laurus to any Company, failure of Laurus to give any Company notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Laurus to pursue to preserve its rights against any Company, the release by Laurus of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any Company, and such agreement by any Company to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by Laurus to any Company or any Collateral for such Company’s Obligations or the lack thereof.

(d) Each Company expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Company may now or hereafter have against the other or other Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations, or against or with respect to any other’s property (including, without limitation, any property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, until all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and this Agreement has been irrevocably terminated.

(e) Each Company represents and warrants to Laurus that (i) Companies have one or more common shareholders, directors and officers, (ii) the businesses and corporate activities of Companies are closely related to, and substantially benefit, the business and corporate activities of Companies, (iii) the financial and other operations of Companies are performed on a combined basis as if Companies constituted a consolidated corporate group, (iv) Companies will receive a substantial economic benefit from entering into this Agreement and will receive a substantial economic benefit from the application of each Loan hereunder, in each case, whether or not such amount is used directly by any Company and (v) all requests for Loans hereunder by the Company Agent are for the exclusive and indivisible benefit of the Companies as though, for purposes of this Agreement, the Companies constituted a single entity.

29. Notices. Any notice or request hereunder may be given to any Company, Company Agent or Laurus at the respective addresses set forth below or as may hereafter be specified in a notice designated as a change of address under this Section. Any notice or request hereunder shall be given by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, hand delivery,
