interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in
accordance with the terms hereof.
2.1.1 Revolving Advances.
------------------
(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not
to exceed the lesser of (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the Borrowing
Base. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, amounts borrowed
pursuant to this Section 2.1.1 may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to

penalty or premium.
(b) Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower will notify
Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific

shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form

based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a
Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in Bank's discretion such
Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due and remain
unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any telephonic notice given by a
person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee
thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or

of Advances made under this Section 2.1.1 to Borrower's deposit account.

Agreement, at any time from the date hereof through July 14, 1999, Bank agrees

to Borrower in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed $1,500,000. The
initial Term Advance shall be in an amount up to $500,000 and shall be used to
repay in full the obligations that Borrower owes Bank under the Starter Kit Loan

Equipment shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the invoice amount of
Equipment approved by Bank from time to time, excluding taxes, shipping,
warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expense.
8
(b) Interest shall accrue from the date of each Term Advance at the
rate specified in Section 2.3(a), and shall be payable monthly on the first day

July 14, 1999 shall be payable in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments of
principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on August 1, 1999, and
continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through July 14, 2002, at
which time all amounts due under this Section 2.1.2 and any other amounts due
under this Agreement shall be immediately due and payable. Borrower may prepay
any Term Advances without penalty or premium.
(c) When Borrower desires to obtain a Term Advance, Borrower shall
notify Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) by facsimile transmission to be
received no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time one (1) Business Day before the
day on which the Term Advance is to be made. Such notice shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit B. The notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer or
----------
its designee and, as to any Term Advance financing Equipment, shall include a
copy of the invoice for such Equipment.
2.2 Overadvances. If any Advances hereunder exceed the lesser of the
------------
Borrowing Base or the Committed Revolving Line, Borrower, upon written notice
from Bank, shall immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the amount of such excess.
2.3 Interest Rates, Payments, and Calculations.
------------------------------------------
(a) Interest Rates.
--------------
(i) Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the
--------
Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at a
rate equal to One Percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate.
(ii) Term Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the
-------------
Term Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at
a rate equal to One and One Half Percent (1.5%) above the Prime Rate.
(b) Late Fee; Default Rate. If any payment is not made within ten
----------------------
(10) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay Bank a late fee
equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid amount
or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law. All
Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage
points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of
an Event of Default.
(c) Payments. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the
--------
first calendar day of each month during the term hereof. Bank shall, at its
option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic Payments
against any of Borrower's deposit accounts or against the Committed Revolving
Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate
then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by
becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue
interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Bank shall deliver to Borrower
statements of account in the ordinary course of business reflecting charges made
hereunder.
9
(d) Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to
-----------
time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or
decreased effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal
to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan
Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year
for the actual number of days elapsed.
2.4 Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default,
------------------
Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to
such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of funds,
check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally
reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such
payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check
or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received
by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by
Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.
Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due
(except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such
payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or
interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such
extension.
2.5 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:
----
(a) Facility Fee. On the Closing Date, a Facility Fee equal to
------------
$5,000, which shall be nonrefundable;
(b) Bank Expenses. On the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses incurred
-------------
through the Closing Date, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and,

or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and all
Obligations and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its
covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in the

is a corporation duly existing under the laws of its state of incorporation and
qualified and licensed to do business in any state in which the conduct of its
business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, except
where failure to so qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.2 Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and
------------------------------
performance of the Loan Documents are within Borrower's powers, have been duly
authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any
provision contained in Borrower's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, nor
will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement to which
Borrower is a party or by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default
under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, which
default could have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.3 No Prior Encumbrances. Borrower has good and indefeasible title
---------------------
to the Collateral, free and clear of Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

-------------------------------------------------
consolidated financial statements related to Borrower and any Subsidiary that

payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in
Section 8.5 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any
action by Bank);
(b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the
benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between

necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral.
Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the
Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to
enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain
possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest,
or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank's determination
appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses
incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower's owned
premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such
premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of
Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
(e) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i)
balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time
owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank;

(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in
connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's
benefit;
(g) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or
both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in
such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Bank
determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations
in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate;
(h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.
9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and
-----------------
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably
appoints Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as
Borrower's true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of
Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts;
(b) endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security
that may come into Bank's possession; (c) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or
▇▇▇▇ of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors,
schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to
account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all
claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; and
(f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with
account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be
reasonable; provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name
of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of
whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower's
attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank's rights and powers, being
coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been
fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide advances hereunder
is terminated.
9.3 Accounts Collection. Upon the occurrence and during the
-------------------
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to
Borrower of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such
Account. Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive
in trust all payments as Bank's trustee, and immediately deliver such payments
to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper
endorsements for deposit.
9.4 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish
-------------
any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required
under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following
after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part
thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Facility as Bank deems
necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c)
obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.6 of
this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems
prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank
Expenses,
20
shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then
applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral.
Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make
similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under
this Agreement.
9.5 Bank's Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with
-------------------------------
reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage
thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any
diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of
loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.
9.6 Remedies Cumulative. Bank's rights and remedies under this
-------------------
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right
or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank
shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank
shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank
and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which it was given.
9.7 Demand; Protest. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of
---------------
protest, 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 at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable.
