whose address is ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ provides the terms on
which Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree
as follows:
1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
--------------------------
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed
following GAAP Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The
term "financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms
"including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without
limitation," in this or any Loan Document. This Agreement shall be construed to
impart upon Bank a duty to act reasonably at all times.
2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
-------------------------
2.1 Advances.
Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Advances and
interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Advances.
2.1.1 Revolving Advances.
(a) Bank will make Advances not exceeding the lesser of (A) the
Committed Revolving Line or (B) the Borrowing Base, whichever is less. Amounts
borrowed under this Section may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this
Agreement.
(b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or
telephone by 3:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day the Advance is to be
made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the
Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B. Bank will credit Advances to
Borrower's deposit account. Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based on
instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without
instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become
due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes
is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss
Bank suffers due to reliance.
(c) The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity
Date, when all Advances and other amounts due under this Agreement are
immediately payable.
2.1.2 Equipment Advances.
(a) Bank will make an advance (the "Initial Equipment Advance") not
exceeding the Committed Equipment Line. The Initial Equipment Advance may not
exceed the lesser of (i) 50% of the net book value of the continous passive
motion devices in the rental base or (ii) the Committed Equipment Line. All
subsequent Equipment Advances (the "Subsequent Equipment Advances") shall be
made on a semi-annual basis not to exceed the lesser of (i) 75% of the
in-service cost of newly manufactured and rebuilt devices or (ii) the Committed
Equipment Line. Equipment Advances made under this Section may be repaid and
reborrowed during the term of the Committed Equipment Line.
(b) Interest accrues from the date of the Initial and Subsequent
Equipment Advances at the rate in Section 2.3(a) and is payable monthly until
the May 1, 2000 (the "Equipment Maturity Date"). The Initial Equipment Advance
payment will be determined by dividing the outstanding principal balance by 30,
which sum will constitute the monthly principal payments due to Bank. Such
payments shall be payable for 30 months beginning one month following the date
of the Initial Equipment Advance and all subsequent payments of principal will
be due on the same day of each month thereafter through the Equipment Maturity
Date. The repayment of all outstanding Subsequent Equipment Advances shall be
4
determined on a semi-annual basis, following the Initial Equipment Advance by
dividing the aggregate outstanding Equipment Advances by 30, which sum will
constitute the monthly principal payment due to Bank. Such payments shall be
payable beginning one month following the date of the Subsequent Equipment
Advance and all subsequent payments of principal will be due on the same day of
each month thereafter through the Equipment Maturity Date.
(c) To obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the
notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time 1
Business Day before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made. The
notice in the form of Exhibit B (Payment/Advance Form) must be signed by a
Responsible Officer or designee and include a copy of the invoice for the
Equipment being financed.
2.2 Overadvances.
If Borrower's Obligations under Section 2.1.1 exceed the lesser of
either (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower
must immediately pay Bank the excess.
2.3 Interest Rate, Payments.
(a) Interest Rate. (i) Advances accrue interest on the outstanding
principal balance at a per annum rate of .200% percentage points above the Prime
Rate; and (ii) Equipment Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal
balance at a per annum rate of .450% percentage points above the Prime Rate.
Upon Borrower achieving 2 consecutive quarters of profitability, the interest
rate on the Committed Revolving Line and the Committed Equipment Line will
reduce by .10% and will further reduce by .10% upon Borrower achieving 4
consecutive quarters of profitability. Such interest rate change shall be
effective as of the first day of the month following Bank's receipt of
Borrower's financial statements indicating Borrower has met the above-described
criteria. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5.00
percentage points above the rate effective immediately before the Event of
Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes.
Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Payments. Interest due on the Committed Revolving Line is payable
on the first (1st) of each month. Principal and interest due on the Equipment
Advances is payable on the first (1st) of each month. Bank may debit any of
Borrower's deposit accounts including Account Number ____________________ for
principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will
notify Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a
set-off. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received
at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a
day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and
additional fees or interest accrue.

8 EVENTS OF DEFAULT
-----------------
Any one of the following is an Event of Default:
8.1 Payment Default.
If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations;
8.2 Covenant Default.
If Borrower does not perform any obligation in Section 6 or violates
any covenant in Section 7 or does not perform or observe any other material
term, condition or covenant in this Agreement, any Loan Documents, or in any
agreement between Borrower and Bank and as to any default under a term,
condition or covenant that can be cured, has not cured the default within 10
days after it occurs, or if the default cannot be cured within 10 days or cannot
be cured after Borrower's attempts within 10 day period, and the default may be
cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower has an additional period (of not
more than 30 days) to attempt to cure the default. During the additional time,
the failure to cure the default is not an Event of Default (but no Advances will
be made during the cure period);
8.3 Material Adverse Change.
(i) If there occurs a material impairment in the perfection or priority
of the Bank's security interest in the Collateral or in the value of such
Collateral which is not covered by adequate insurance or (ii) if the Bank
determines, based upon information available to it and in its reasonable
judgment, that there is a reasonable likelihood that Borrower will fail to
comply with one or more of the financial covenants in Section 6 during the next
succeeding financial reporting period.
8.4 Attachment.
If any material portion of Borrower's assets is attached, seized,
levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver and the attachment,
seizure or levy is not removed in 10 days, or if Borrower is enjoined,
restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting a material part of its
business or if a judgment or other claim becomes a Lien on a material portion of
Borrower's assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against
any of Borrower's assets by any government agency and not paid within 10 days
after Borrower receives notice. These are not Events of Default if stayed or if
a bond is posted pending contest by Borrower (but no Advances will be made
during the cure period);
8.5 Insolvency.
If Borrower becomes insolvent or if Borrower begins an Insolvency
Proceeding or an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against Borrower and not
dismissed or stayed within 30 days (but no Advances will be made before any
Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);
10
8.6 Other Agreements.
If there is a default in any agreement between Borrower and a third
party that gives the third party the right to accelerate any Indebtedness
exceeding $100,000 or that could cause a Material Adverse Change;
8.7 Judgments.
If a money judgment(s) in the aggregate of at least $50,000 is rendered
against Borrower and is unsatisfied and unstayed for 10 days (but no Advances
will be made before the judgment is stayed or satisfied); or
8.8 Misrepresentations.
If Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any material
misrepresentation or material misstatement now or later in any warranty or
representation in this Agreement or in any writing delivered to Bank or to
induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document.
9 BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
--------------------------
9.1 Rights and Remedies.
When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice
or demand, do any or all of the following:
(a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if 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
11
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 Advances terminates.
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 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.
