RECITALS

Company has asked ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo to provide it with a $5,000,000 revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) for working capital purposes, with such Line of Credit constituting a subfacility within the Domestic Facility Agreement (defined below). ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo is agreeable to meeting Company’s request, provided that Company agrees to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the Agreement shall have the meaning given them in Exhibit A.

1.		AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LINE OF CREDIT
1.1		Line of Credit; Limitations on Borrowings; Termination Date; Use of Proceeds.
(a)		Line of Credit and Limitations on Borrowing. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall make Advances to Company under the Line of Credit that in the aggregate do not exceed the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 (the “Maximum Line Amount”), and (ii) the Borrowing Base limitations described in Section 1.2. Within these limits, Company may periodically borrow, prepay in whole or in part, and reborrow. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo has no obligation to make an Advance during a Default Period or at any time ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo believes that an Advance would result in an Event of Default. The Line of Credit provided for in this Agreement is subject to the limitations set forth in the Domestic Facility Agreement and is deemed to be a subfacility within the “Line of Credit” provided for in the Domestic Facility Agreement as set forth therein.
(b)		Maturity and Termination Dates. Company may request Advances from the date that the conditions set forth in Section 3 are satisfied until the earlier of: (i) March 27, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”), (ii) the date Company terminates the Line of Credit, or (iii) the date ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo terminates the Line of Credit following an Event of Default (the earliest of such dates, the “Termination Date”). Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Company has provided ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo with a written notice of Company’s election to extend the Maturity Date no less than 45 days prior to the then applicable Maturity Date, and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo has received the Facility Fee required under Section 1.7(c), the Maturity Date may be extended for consecutive one-year periods; provided that the final Maturity Date shall not extend beyond the “Maturity Date”

		provided for under the Domestic Facility Agreement, it being agreed that the Line of Credit under this Agreement is co-terminus with the “Line of Credit” under the Domestic Facility Agreement.
(c)		Use of Line of Credit Proceeds. Company shall use the proceeds of Advances to provide working capital to fulfill written export orders or contracts from customers outside the U.S. to purchase goods or services from Company.
(d)		Revolving Notes. Company’s obligation to repay Line of Credit Advances, regardless of how initiated under Section 1.3, shall be evidenced by one or more revolving promissory notes (as renewed, amended or replaced from time to time, the “Revolving Notes”).
1.2		Borrowing Base; Mandatory Prepayment.
(a)		Borrowing Base. The borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base”) is an amount equal to:

     (i) 90% or such lesser percentage of Eligible Accounts as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion may deem appropriate; provided that, as of any date of determination, this rate shall be reduced one (1) percent for each percentage point by which Dilution is in excess of ten percent (10%), plus

     (ii) 75% or such lesser percentage of Eligible Inventory as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion may deem appropriate; provided that no more than 60% of the aggregate outstanding Advances under the Line of Credit may be supported by Eligible Inventory at any time, less

     (iii) the Borrowing Base Reserve, less

     (iv) Indebtedness that Company owes ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo that has not been advanced on the Revolving Notes (other than Indebtedness constituting “Advances” under the Domestic Facility Agreement), less

     (v) Indebtedness that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion finds on the date of determination to be equal to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s net credit exposure with respect to any swap, derivative, foreign exchange, hedge, deposit, treasury management or similar product or transaction extended to Company by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo that is not otherwise described in Section 1 and any Indebtedness owed by Company to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Merchant Services, L.L.C.

(b)

MANDATORY PREPAYMENT; OVERADVANCES. If unreimbursed Line of Credit Advances evidenced by the Revolving Notes exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Line Amount at any time, then Company shall immediately prepay the Revolving Notes in an amount sufficient to eliminate the excess, unless ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo has delivered to Company an Authenticated Record consenting to the Overadvance prior to its occurrence, in which event the Overadvance shall be temporarily permitted on such terms and conditions as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion may deem appropriate, including the payment of additional fees or interest, or both.

1.3		Procedures for Line of Credit Advances.
(a)		Advances to Operating Account. Advances shall be credited to Company’s demand deposit account maintained with ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo (the “Operating Account”), unless the parties agree in a Record Authenticated by both of them to disburse to another account.

     (i) Advances upon Company’s Request. Line of Credit Advances may be funded upon Company’s request. No request will be deemed received until ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo acknowledges receipt, and Company, if requested by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, confirms the request in an Authenticated Record. Company shall repay all Advances, even if the Person requesting the Advance on behalf of Company lacked authorization.

     (A) Floating Rate Advances. If Company wants a Floating Rate Advance, it shall make the request no later than 9:30 a.m. Pasadena, California Time on the Business Day on which it wants the Floating Rate Advance to be funded, which request shall specify the principal Advance amount being requested.

     (B) LIBOR Advances. If Company wants a LIBOR Advance, it shall make the request no later than 9:30 a.m. Pasadena, California Time three (3) Business Days preceding the Business Day on which it wants the LIBOR Advance to be funded, which request shall specify both the principal Advance amount and Interest Period being requested. No more than four (4) separate LIBOR Advance Interest Periods may be outstanding at any time under this Agreement and the Domestic Facility Agreement, on a combined basis. Each LIBOR Advance shall be in multiples of $1,000,000 and in the minimum amount of at least $1,000,000. LIBOR Advances are not available for Advances made through the Loan Manager Service, and shall not be available during Default Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the aggregate outstanding amount of LIBOR Advances under this Agreement and the Domestic Facility Agreement shall not exceed $6,000,000 (the “LIBOR Limitation Amount”).

     (ii) Advances through Loan Manager. If ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo has separately agreed that Company may use the ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Loan Manager service (“Loan Manager”), Line of Credit Advances will be initiated by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo and credited to the Operating Account as Floating Rate Advances as of the end of each Business Day in an amount sufficient to maintain an agreed upon ledger balance in the Operating Account, subject only to Line of Credit availability as provided in Section 1.1(a). If ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo terminates Company’s access to Loan Manager, Company may continue to request Line of Credit Advances as provided in Section 1.3(a)(i). ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall have no obligation to make an Advance through Loan Manager during a Default Period, or in an amount in excess of Line of Credit availability, and may terminate Loan Manager at any time in its sole discretion.

(b)

Protective Advances; Advances to Pay Indebtedness Due. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may initiate a Floating Rate Advance on the Line of Credit in its sole discretion for

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

		any reason at any time, without Company’s compliance with any of the conditions of this Agreement, and (i) disburse the proceeds directly to third Persons in order to protect ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s interest in Collateral or to perform any of Company’s obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) apply the proceeds to the amount of any Indebtedness then due and payable to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo.
1.4		LIBOR Advances.
(a)		Funding Line of Credit Advances as LIBOR Advances for Fixed Interest Periods. Subject to the LIBOR Limitation Amount, Company may fund a Line of Credit Advance as a LIBOR Advance for one, three, or six month periods (each period an “Interest Period”, as more fully defined in Exhibit A).
(b)		Procedure for Converting Floating Rate Advances to LIBOR Advances. Subject to the LIBOR Limitation Amount, Company may request that all or any part of an outstanding Floating Rate Advance be converted to a LIBOR Advance, provided that no Default Period is in effect, and that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo receives the request no later than 9:30 a.m. Pasadena, California Time three (3) Business Days preceding the Business Day on which Company wishes the conversion to become effective. Each request shall (i) specify the principal amount of the Floating Rate Advance to be converted, (ii) the Business Day of conversion, and (iii) the Interest Period desired. The request shall be confirmed in an Authenticated Record if requested by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo. Each conversion to a LIBOR Advance shall be in multiples of $1,000,000 and in the minimum amount of at least $1,000,000.
(c)		Expiring LIBOR Advance Interest Periods. Unless Company requests a new LIBOR Advance, or prepays an outstanding LIBOR Advance at the expiration of an Interest Period, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall convert each LIBOR Advance to a Floating Rate Advance on the last day of the expiring Interest Period. If no Default Period is in effect, Company may request that all or part of any expiring LIBOR Advance be renewed as a new LIBOR Advance, provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo receives the request no later than 9:30 a.m. Pasadena, California Time three (3) Business Days preceding the Business Day that constitutes the first day of the new Interest Period. Each request shall specify the principal amount of the expiring LIBOR Advance to be continued and Interest Period desired, and shall be confirmed in an Authenticated Record if requested by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo. Each renewal of a LIBOR Advance shall be in multiples of $1,000,000 and in the minimum amount of at least $1,000,000.
(d)		Quotation of LIBOR Advance Interest Rates. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall, with respect to any request for a new or renewal LIBOR Advance, or the conversion of a Floating Rate Advance to a LIBOR Advance, provide Company with a LIBOR quote for each Interest Period identified by Company on the Business Day on which the request was made, if the request is received by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo no later than 9:30 a.m. Pasadena, California Time three (3) Business Days preceding the Business Day on which Company has requested that the LIBOR Advance be made effective. If Company does not immediately accept a LIBOR quote, the quoted rate shall expire and any subsequent request for a LIBOR quote shall be subject to redetermination by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo.

WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

(e)		Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Company shall also pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo with respect to any LIBOR Advance all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority that are related to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental, emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, the assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority that are related to LIBOR but not otherwise included in the calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of these amounts are attributable to an existing LIBOR Advance, any reasonable allocation made by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo among its operations shall be deemed conclusive and binding.
1.5		Collection of Accounts and Application to Revolving Notes.
(a)		The Collection Account. Company has granted a security interest to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in the Collateral, including all Accounts. Except as otherwise agreed by both parties in an Authenticated Record, all Proceeds of Accounts and other Collateral, upon receipt or collection, shall be deposited each Business Day into the Collection Account. Funds so deposited (“Account Funds”) may only be withdrawn from the Collection Account by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo for application in accordance with Section 1.5(c) or as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents or by applicable law.
(b)		Payment of Accounts by Company’s Account Debtors. Company shall instruct all account debtors to make payments either directly to the Lockbox for deposit by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo directly to the Collection Account, or instruct them to deliver such payments to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo by wire transfer, ACH, or other means as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may direct for deposit to the Collection Account or for direct application to the Line of Credit. If Company receives a payment or the Proceeds of Collateral directly, Company will promptly deposit the payment or Proceeds into the Collection Account. Until deposited, it will hold all such payments and Proceeds in trust for ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo without commingling with other funds or property. All deposits held in the Collection Account shall constitute Proceeds of Collateral and shall not constitute the payment of Indebtedness.
(c)		Application of Payments to Revolving Notes. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo will withdraw Account Funds deposited to the Collection Account and pay down borrowings on the Line of Credit by applying them to the Revolving Notes on a pro rata basis on the first Business Day following the Business Day of deposit to the Collection Account, or, if payments are received by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo that are not first deposited to the Collection Account pursuant to any treasury management service provided to Company by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, such payments shall be applied to the Revolving Notes as provided in the Master Agreement for Treasury Management Services and the relevant service description.
1.6		Interest and Interest Related Matters.
(a)		Interest Rates Applicable to Line of Credit. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of each Line of Credit Advance

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

evidenced by the Revolving Notes shall accrue interest at an annual interest rate calculated as follows:

			Floating Rate:
			Line of Credit Advances = Prime Rate plus the applicable Margin, which interest rate shall change whenever the Prime Rate changes (the “Floating Rate”); or
			LIBOR Advance Rate for One-, Three-, or Six-Month Interest Periods:
			Line of Credit Advances = LIBOR plus the applicable Margin (the “LIBOR Advance Rate”)

		Multiple Advances under the Line of Credit may simultaneously accrue interest at both the Floating Rate and at the LIBOR Advance Rate, subject to the limitations of Section 1.3(a)(i).
		The Margins through and including the adjustment occurring as specified below shall be 0.75% per annum for Floating Rate Advances, and 3.50% per annum for LIBOR Advances. The Margins shall be reduced by 0.25% per annum on a one-time basis if the Company’s Earnings Before Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization for any fiscal year ending on or after December 31, 2008, is greater than $1,500,000.
		The Margin reduction provided for in the immediately preceding paragraph shall become effective on the first calendar day of the first calendar month following the month of receipt by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo of fiscal year end financial statements that have been audited by independent certified public accountants acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo.
		If amended or restated financial statements would change previously calculated Margins, or if ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo determines that any financial statements have materially misstated Company’s financial condition, then ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may, using the most accurate information available to it (it being agreed that if Company files amended and restated financial statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that modify financial statements previously submitted to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, such amended and restated financial statements shall be deemed to be the most accurate information available to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo), recalculate the financial test or tests governing the Margins and retroactively reduce or increase the Margins from the date of receipt of such amended or restated financial statements and charge Company additional interest, which may be imposed on them from the beginning of the appropriate month to which the restated statements or recalculated financial tests relate, as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion deems appropriate.
(b)		Minimum Interest Charge. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
(c)		Default Interest Rate. Commencing on the day an Event of Default occurs, through and including the date identified by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in a Record as the date

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

		that the Event of Default has been cured or waived (each such period a “Default Period”), or during a time period specified in Section 1.9, or at any time following the Termination Date, in ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s sole discretion and without waiving any of its other rights or remedies, the principal amount of the Revolving Notes shall bear interest at a rate that is three percent (3.0%) above the contractual rate set forth in Section 1.6(a) (the “Default Rate”), or any lesser rate that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may deem appropriate, starting on the first day of the month in which the Default Period begins through the last day of that Default Period, or any shorter time period to which ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may agree in an Authenticated Record.
(d)		Interest Accrual on Payments Applied to Revolving Notes. Payments received by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall be applied to the Revolving Notes as provided in Section 1.4(c), but the principal amount paid down shall continue to accrue interest through the end of the first Business Day following the Business Day that the payment was applied to the Revolving Notes.
(e)		Usury. No interest rate shall be effective which would result in a rate greater than the highest rate permitted by law. Payments in the nature of interest and other charges made under any Loan Documents that are later determined to be in excess of the limits imposed by applicable usury law will be deemed to be a payment of principal, and the Indebtedness shall be reduced by that amount so that such payments will not be deemed usurious.
1.7		Fees.
(a)		Origination Fee. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
(b)		Unused Line Fee. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
(c)		Facility Fees. On each anniversary date of this Agreement of this Agreement, Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo a facility fee equal to 1.5% of the Maximum Line Amount, which fee when paid shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable under all circumstances. In addition to the foregoing, on or before March 27, 2009, Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo an additional fee equal to the product of (i) 1.5% of the Maximum Line Amount, multiplied by (ii) 0.1945 (the “Supplementary Fee”). The Supplementary Fee is in addition to the annual fee required in the first sentence of this paragraph.
(d)		Collateral Exam Fees. Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo fees in connection with any collateral exams, audits or inspections conducted by or on behalf of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo at the current rates established from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo as its collateral exam fees (which fees are currently $105 per hour per collateral examiner), together with all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in conducting any collateral examination or inspection.
(e)		Collateral Monitoring Fees. Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo a fee at the rates established from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo (or any other Person providing such services to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, including, but not limited to, Collateral Services, Inc.) as its Collateral monitoring fees (which fees currently consist of a

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

		monthly fee of $250), due and payable monthly in advance on the first day of the month.
(f)		Line of Credit Termination and/or Reduction Fees. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
(g)		Overadvance Fees. Company shall pay a $500 Overadvance fee for each day that an Overadvance exists which was not agreed to by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in an Authenticated Record prior to its occurrence; provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s acceptance of the payment of such fees shall not constitute either consent to the Overadvance or waiver of the resulting Event of Default. Company shall pay additional Overadvance fees and interest in such amounts and on such terms as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion may consider appropriate for any Overadvance to which ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo has specifically consented in an Authenticated Record prior to its occurrence.
(h)		Treasury Management Fees. Company will pay service fees to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo for treasury management services provided pursuant to the Master Agreement for Treasury Management Services or any other agreement entered into by the parties, in the amount prescribed in ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s current service fee schedule.
(i)		Other Fees and Charges. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may impose additional fees and charges during a Default Period for (i) waiving an Event of Default, or for (ii) the administration of Collateral by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo. All such fees and charges shall be imposed at ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s sole discretion following oral notice to Company on either an hourly, periodic, or flat fee basis, and in lieu of or in addition to imposing interest at the Default Rate, and Company’s request for an Advance following such notice shall constitute Company’s agreement to pay such fees and charges.
(j)		LIBOR Advance Breakage Fees. Company may prepay any LIBOR Advance at any time in any amount, whether voluntarily or by acceleration; provided, however, that if the LIBOR Advance is prepaid, Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo upon demand a LIBOR Advance breakage fee equal to the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such Interest Period matures, calculated as follows for each such month:

     (i) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

     (ii) Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the amount prepaid for the remaining term of such Interest Period at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid.

     (iii) If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above.

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

		Company acknowledges that prepayment of the Revolving Notes may result in ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo incurring additional costs, expenses or liabilities, and that it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses or liabilities. Company agrees to pay the above-described LIBOR Advance breakage fee and agrees that this amount represents a reasonable estimate of the LIBOR Advance breakage costs, expenses and/or liabilities of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo.
1.8		Interest Accrual; Principal and Interest Payments; Computation.
(a)		Interest Payments and Interest Accrual. Accrued and unpaid interest under the Revolving Notes shall be due and payable on the first day of each month (each an “Interest Payment Date”) and on the Termination Date, and shall be paid in the manner provided in Section 1.4(c). Interest shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of Advance to the Interest Payment Date.
(b)		Payment of Revolving Notes Principal. The principal amount of the Revolving Notes shall be paid from time to time as provided in this Agreement, and shall be fully due and payable on the Termination Date.
(c)		Payments Due on Non-Business Days. If an Interest Payment Date or the Termination Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next Business Day, and interest shall continue to accrue during that time period.
(d)		Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest accruing on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Notes and fees payable under this Agreement shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.
(e)		Liability Records. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall maintain accounting and bookkeeping records of all Advances and payments under the Line of Credit and all other Indebtedness due to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in such form and content as ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion deems appropriate. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s calculation of current Indebtedness shall be presumed correct unless proven otherwise by Company. Upon ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s request, Company will admit and certify in a Record the exact principal balance of the Indebtedness that Company then believes to be outstanding. Any billing statement or accounting provided by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo shall be conclusive and binding unless Company notifies ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in a detailed Record of its intention to dispute the billing statement or accounting within 30 days of receipt.
(f)		Pro Rata Application. All payments or other sums received by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo and applied to the Revolving Notes shall be applied on a pro rata basis.
1.9		Termination or Reduction of Line of Credit by Company; Notice. Company may terminate or reduce the Line of Credit at any time prior to the Maturity Date, if it (i) delivers an Authenticated Record notifying ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo of its intentions at least 10 Business Days prior to the proposed Termination Date (which notice may be contingent on the occurrence of an event; provided that

Credit and Security Agreement
WFBC/Iridex (Ex-Im Subfacility)

		(x) if Company does not terminate or reduce the Line of Credit on the date specified in such notice, Company may subsequently terminate or reduce the Line of Credit only upon delivering ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo a new notice, as provided above, and complying with all other terms of this paragraph, and (y) no more than three such notices may be provided within any 60 consecutive day period), (ii) pays ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo the termination fee set forth in Section 1.7(f), and (iii) pays the Indebtedness in full or down to the reduced Maximum Line Amount.
1.10		Facility Subject to Ex-Im Bank Rules. Company acknowledges that ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo is willing to make the Ex-Im Subfacility available to Company because the Ex-Im Bank is willing to guaranty payment of a significant portion of the Indebtedness pursuant to the Master Guarantee Agreement (as defined in the Borrower Agreement). Accordingly, in the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Master Guarantee Agreement or the Borrower Agreement, the provision that is the more stringent on Company shall control with respect to Advances under this Agreement and procedures related thereto. This Agreement is supplemental to the Borrower Agreement.
2.		SECURITY INTEREST AND OCCUPANCY OF COMPANY’S PREMISES
2.1		Grant of Security Interest. Company hereby pledges, assigns and grants to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, for the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo and as agent for ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Merchant Services, L.L.C., a Lien and security interest (collectively referred to as the “Security Interest”) in the Collateral, as security for the payment and performance of the Indebtedness.

Company shall join in giving such notice and shall Authenticate any Record giving such notice upon ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s request. After Company or ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo gives such notice, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may, but need not, in ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s or in Company’s name, demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of, or securing, such Account, General Intangible, or other amount due, or grant any extension to, make any compromise or settlement with or otherwise agree to waive, modify, amend or change the obligations (including collateral obligations) of any account debtor or other obligor. ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo may, in ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s name or in Company’s name, as Company’s agent and attorney-in-fact, notify the United States Postal Service to change the address for delivery of Company’s mail to any address designated by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, otherwise intercept Company’s mail, and receive, open and dispose of Company’s mail, applying all Collateral as permitted under this Agreement and holding all other mail for Company’s account or forwarding such mail to Company’s last known address.

Any monies received under any insurance policy assigned to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo, other than liability insurance policies, or received as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo and, as determined by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion, either be applied to prepayment of the Indebtedness or disbursed to Company under staged payment terms reasonably satisfactory to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo for application to the cost of repairs, replacements, or restorations which shall be effected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value of the items or property destroyed.
2.4		Company’s Premises.
(a)		▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo’s Right to Occupy Company’s Premises. Company hereby grants to ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo the right, at any time during a Default Period and without notice or consent, to take exclusive possession of all locations where Company conducts its business or has any rights of possession, including the locations described on Exhibit B (the “Premises”), until the earlier of (i) payment in full and discharge of all Indebtedness and termination of the Line of Credit, or (ii) final sale or disposition of all items constituting Collateral and delivery of those items to purchasers.
