All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to four (4) percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default.

(c) Payments. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the tenth calendar day of each month during the term hereof. Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest and all Bank Expenses against Borrower’s main operating deposit account, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder.

Subject to Section 12.3, all payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the end that Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable hereunder, regardless of source of payment. Payments will be made via auto debit from Borrower’s main operating account at the Bank.

Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Term Advance only upon written notice to Bank, which shall be irrevocable, at least three Business Days before the proposed prepayment date (the “Prepayment Date”), such notice shall specify the Prepayment Date and the amount to be prepaid.

This Section 2.2(d) shall be applicable to all prepayments of Term Advances including prepayments following a Default.

(e) 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.

transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. If an Event of Default exists, 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.

9. BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:

(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and 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 Loan Document;

(c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable;

(d) Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers 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 at a place or places designated by Bank which are reasonably convenient to Bank and Borrower. 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 (Bank agrees to notify Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application).;

(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Except to the extent that such use, assignment, license or sublicense is expressly prohibited under a license agreement and would result in a breach under such agreement for which such agreement would reasonably be expected to be terminated by such licensor, upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default and the exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1(f), Bank is 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, solely as necessary in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, and solely 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) Dispose of the Collateral 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 promptly 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; (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; and (g) to file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral. 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 (other than contingent indemnification Obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions hereunder is terminated.

9.3 Accounts Collection. At any time after 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. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and promptly 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 written notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; or (b) 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 reasonably deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be due and payable within 10 Business Days following demand, and, to the extent not paid when due, 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 (including, without limitation, reasonable care of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder), 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 Shares. Borrower recognizes that Bank may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Shares in connection with the exercise of Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement during the continuance of an Event of Default by reason of certain prohibitions contained in federal securities laws and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Bank shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Shares for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under federal securities laws or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

9.7 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.

9.8 Demand; Protest. Except as expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default or any other notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with the Loan Documents or the Collateral.

10. NOTICES.

Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by any party relating to this Agreement or any Loan Document shall be in writing and (except for financial statements and other informational documents which may be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid) shall be personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight delivery service, certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telefacsimile to Borrower or to Bank, as the case may be, at its addresses set forth below:

11. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each of Borrower and Bank hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts located in the County of Santa ▇▇▇▇▇, State of California. BORROWER AND BANK EACH HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY RECOGNIZES AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR IT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

If the jury waiver set forth in Section is not enforceable, then any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated therein shall be settled by judicial reference pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. before a referee sitting without a jury, such referee to be mutually acceptable to the parties or, if no agreement is reached, by a referee appointed by the Presiding Judge of the California Superior Court for Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County. This Section shall not restrict a party from exercising remedies under the Code or from exercising pre-judgment remedies under applicable law.

12. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Borrower without Bank’s prior written consent, which consent may be

granted or withheld in Bank’s sole discretion. Subject to compliance with Section 12.3 by both Bank and the Transferee (as defined in Section 12.3), Bank shall have the right without the consent of or notice to Borrowers to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits hereunder.

12.2 Indemnification. Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Bank as a result of or in any way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification.

12.3 Tax Related Matters Upon Transfer or Other Similar Transactions By Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if Bank sells, transfers, assigns, negotiates, or grants participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights or benefits under any of the Loan Documents (a “Transferred Interest”) to any Person (a “Transferee”), then:

(a) if Borrower is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any amounts for or in respect of tax with respect to any Transferred Interest (a “Tax Deduction”) that Borrower would not have otherwise been required to deduct or withhold if Bank had not sold, transferred, assigned, negotiated or granted participation in such Transferred Interest,

(i) Borrower shall be permitted under the Loan Documents to deduct or withhold any such amounts, and

(ii) Borrower shall not be required to pay, and neither Bank nor any Transferee shall be entitled to receive, any amount under the Loan Documents with respect to such Transferred Interest that is greater than (A) the amount that Borrower would have been required to pay to Bank with respect to such Transferred Interest if Bank had not sold, transferred, assigned, negotiated or granted a participation in such Transferred Interest, less (B) any Tax Deduction with respect to such Transferred Interest, less (C) any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising from such Tax Deduction or with respect thereto;

(b) each Transferee shall timely deliver documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not withholding, backup withholding or information reporting requirements would apply in respect of payments required under the Loan Documents with respect to the relevant Transferred Interest;

(c) each Transferee and, if applicable, Bank, shall complete all required procedural formalities and shall deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as is required under applicable law or as shall be reasonably requested by Borrower) on or prior to the date on which such Transferee acquires a Transferred Interest (and promptly from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or upon the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form or document previously delivered by such Transferee or, if applicable, Bank) all duly completed forms and other documentation, if any, required to enable Borrower to make all payments required under the Loan Documents with respect to such Transferred Interest without deduction or withholding for or in respect of taxes, or, in the case of a Transferred Interest in respect of which payments under the Loan Documents are not eligible for a complete exemption, at a reduced rate of deduction or withholding in respect of taxes;

(d) with respect to any Transferred Interest, Bank and the relevant Transferee shall indemnify Borrower, within 20 days after written demand therefor, for all amounts for or in respect of taxes paid or incurred by Borrower with respect to such Transferred Interest and the full amount of any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, excluding any amounts to the extent such amounts previously reduced, under Section 12.3(a)(ii)(B) or (C), the amount paid by Borrower under the Loan Documents with respect to such Transferred Interest; and

(e) any failure by Borrower to comply with any obligation under Section 6.5 (Taxes) with respect to any Transferred Interest as a result of this Section 12.3 shall not constitute an Event of Default by Borrower under this Agreement.

12.4 United States Person Status. Bank represents and warrants that it is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC and that it is lending under this Agreement through a lending office located in the United States.

12.5 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations set forth in this Agreement.

12.6 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

12.7 Amendments in Writing, Integration. Neither this Agreement nor the Loan Documents can be amended or terminated orally. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, if any, are merged into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

12.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic copy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

12.9 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making and funding of the Term Advance so long as any Obligations remain outstanding (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no claim has been made). The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 12.2 and the confidentiality provisions of Section 12.10 shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought have run.

12.10 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information Bank and all employees and agents of Bank, including but not limited to accountants, shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except that disclosure of such information may be made (i) to the subsidiaries or affiliates of Bank in connection with their present or prospective business relations with Borrower (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section 12.10), (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, provided that they have (x) entered into a comparable confidentiality agreement in favor of Borrower to which Borrower is a party or pursuant to which Borrower and its Subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries and (y) delivered a copy of such confidentiality agreement to Borrower, (iii) as required by law, regulations, rule or order, subpoena, judicial order or similar order, (iv) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of Bank by a regulatory authority or examiner regulating or having jurisdiction over Bank and requiring or requesting such disclosure and (v) as Bank may determine in connection with the enforcement of any remedies hereunder at any time during the existence of an Event of Default. Confidential information hereunder shall not include information that either: (a) is in the public domain or in the knowledge or possession of Bank when disclosed to Bank with no confidentiality obligations to a third party, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank through no fault of Bank; or (b) is disclosed to Bank by a third party on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of this Section 12.10, provided Bank does not have actual knowledge that such third party is prohibited from disclosing such information. Should Bank be required to disclose any such information by virtue of a subpoena or similar process by any court, tribunal, or agency pursuant to items (iii), (iv) or (v) above, then Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify Borrower thereof so as to allow Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, to seek a protective order or to take any other

appropriate action to protect its rights.

12.11 Patriot Act. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU: when you open an account, we will ask your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

12.12 No Consequential Damages. No party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any agent or attorney of such party or Bank, shall be liable to any other party to this Agreement or any other Person on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages.

COLLATERAL DESCRIPTION ATTACHMENT

TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
