Letter of Credit Loans.

Upon the execution hereof and from time to time thereafter during the Term, Lender may, in its sole discretion, arrange for and secure commercial Letters of Credit to be issued by Issuer to Global or a Global Vendor for the benefit of and at the request of Borrower. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date later than the Letter of Credit Maturity Date or the termination date hereof. In the event Lender elects not to arrange a Letter of Credit requested by Borrower with respect to any customer purchase order, Borrower may finance such Letter of Credit with another lender. However, Borrower shall offer the Lender the first opportunity to arrange and secure all Letters of Credit required by the Borrower and its Affiliates, and may only use alternate financing sources for letters of credit rejected by Lender. Each such Letter of Credit shall be arranged or rejected at the sole discretion of the Lender. Each request for a Letter of Credit by Borrower shall be made by written notice from Borrower to Lender, given not later than 3:00 P.M. (Chicago time) at least twenty-one (21) Business Days prior to the date that Borrower needs such Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be accompanied by an executed copy of the customer purchase order(s) for which such Letter of Credit Loan is requested.

The amount of any draws made by a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit shall be paid and reimbursed to Lender upon the earlier of (a) within three (3) days after payment of the purchase order(s) for which such Letter of Credit was made; or (b) within forty (40) days after Borrower ships the goods covered by such applicable purchase order(s). As a condition to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, Lender may require the Borrower to obtain Credit Insurance on the applicable customer purchase orders.

2.2

Interest Rates on Loans.

Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding from time to time in the manner provided in Section 3.1 below at the fixed rate of two percent (2%) per month. The first four months of interest (8%) on each Letter of Credit shall be deemed fully earned upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit (the “Minimal Charge”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations shall, at Lender’s option, bear interest after such Event of Default at the Default Rate.

2.3

Computation of Interest. Interest on the Loans shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year.

2.4

Equity. Immediately upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, Borrower shall issue to Lender, as additional consideration for such Letter of Credit, shares of common stock of Borrower with a fair value equal to 1% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. As used herein, fair value shall mean 80% of the “bid” price of such stock.

3. Loans: General Terms

(B) Optional Prepayment. Except as otherwise provided in this Loan Agreement or any of the Other Agreements, the Borrower may from time to time prepay a Letter of Credit at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty, provided that Borrower shall pay the unpaid portion of the Minimum Charge in the event such Letter of Credit is outstanding less than four (4) full months.

(C) Lockbox. All payments from customers of Borrower shall be paid into the Lockbox maintained by Issuer for the benefit of the parties hereto, pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Such Loans are not so evidenced, such Loans shall be evidenced by entries upon the ledgers, books, records or computer records of Lender maintained for that purpose. Lender’s failure to record any portion of the Liabilities on such books and records shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to repay the Liabilities due and owing to Lender pursuant to this Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements.

3.4 One Loan. All of the Liabilities shall constitute one loan secured by Lender’s security interest and lien in the Collateral and by all other security interests, liens, mortgages, claims and encumbrances heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter granted by Borrower to Lender.

Borrower represents, warrants and covenants unto Lender that Borrower shall use the proceeds of all Loans made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements as follows: (A) the Letters of Credit shall solely be issued to Global and Global Vendors to secure the Borrower’s purchase of Inventory pursuant to the Distribution Agreement between Borrower and Global; (B) proceeds of the Loans shall be used solely for proper business purposes and consistent with all applicable laws and statutes. Borrower further represents and warrants to Lender that Borrower does not and will not at any time hereafter own any margin securities, and that none of the proceeds of the Loans shall be used for the purpose of (1) purchasing or carrying any margin securities, (2) reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase any margin securities, or (3) any other purpose not permitted by Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as in effect from time to time.

3.6 Term. The term of this Loan Agreement (“Term”) shall commence on the date first set forth above and shall continue until the latest of: (a) 60 days after either party provides written notice of termination to the other; provided, however that Borrower may not provide such notice until one year after the expiration or termination of all licenses, distribution agreements or other contracts to sell or distribute goods to which Borrower or any of its Affiliates now are (or during the Term become) a party; and (b) the date that all Liabilities are irrevocably paid in full. The parties intend that as long as Borrower or its Affiliates have or may have any need for third-party financing, this Agreement shall continue and Lender shall have a right of first refusal to provide such financing as set forth in Section 2.1 above.

3.7 Representation and Warranty. Each request for a Loan advance made by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements shall constitute an automatic representation and warranty by Borrower to Lender that there does not then exist an Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default.

3.8 Authorization to Disburse. Borrower hereby authorizes and requests Lender to obtain and disburse for and on behalf of Borrower, and for the Borrower’s account, Letters of Credit pursuant to this Loan Agreement to such Person or Persons as Borrower or any Person specified in Section 12.11 of this Loan Agreement shall direct, whether in writing or orally.

3.9 Payment of Costs, Fees and Expenses. Lender, in its discretion, may pay any costs, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid by Borrower and not timely paid, or to pay any Person as Lender deems necessary to insure that the security interest and lien granted to Lender in the Collateral shall at all times be a first priority, perfected security interest and lien. Any such amounts advanced by Lender shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower.

3.10 Debit of Accounts. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to debit the Lockbox Account for the principal, interest and other costs, fees and expenses arising under or pursuant to this Loan Agreement and the Other Agreements, or otherwise.

3.11 Intentionally Omitted.

3.12 Letters of Credit. (a) All Letters of Credit shall bear (in addition to the interest forth herein) such application, issuance, renewal, negotiation and other fees and charges as charged by the Issuer. Borrower shall pay all such amounts to Lender upon demand.

(b) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Loan Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save Lender, and keep Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from the claims of third parties against Lender as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than as a result of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (ii) the failure of Issuer to honor a drawing under such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Government Acts”).

(c) As between Borrower and Lender, Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of such Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit applications, Lender shall not be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in the Letter of Credit in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit, (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher, (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms, (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof, (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit, or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lender’s rights or powers under this Loan Agreement.

(d) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by Lender under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put Lender under any resulting liability to Borrower or relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.
