Lender agrees to make term loans to Borrower from time to time from the Closing
Date and to, but not including, the Termination Date in an aggregate principal
amount not exceeding the Commitment for purposes of financing Borrower's
acquisition of Equipment. The Commitment is not a revolving credit commitment,
and Borrower shall not have the right to repay and reborrow hereunder.
2.2 Limitation on Loans. Each Loan shall be in an amount not to exceed one
hundred percent (100%) of the amount paid or payable by Borrower to a non-
affiliated manufacturer, vendor or dealer for an item of Equipment as shown on
an invoice therefor (excluding any commissions and any portion of the payment
which relates to the servicing of the equipment and sales taxes payable by
Borrower upon acquisition, and delivery charges). Lender shall not be obligated
to make any Loan under its Commitment if at the time of or after giving effect
to the proposed Loan Lender would no longer qualify as: (A) a "venture capital
operating company" under U.S. Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.3-
101(d), Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as amended; and (B) a
"business development company" under the provisions of Federal Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended; and (C) a "regulated investment company" under
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Loan
requested by Borrower to be made on a single Business Day shall be for a
principal amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) or greater, except to
the extent the remaining Commitment is a lesser amount.
2.3 Notes Evidencing Loans; Repayment. Each Loan shall be evidenced by a
separate Note payable to the order of Lender substantially in the form of
Exhibit "A" to this Agreement, in the total principal amount of the Loan. Each
-----------
Note shall be payable as follows: Principal and Basic Interest shall be
6
paid in thirty-six(36) equal and successive monthly payments, in advance,
beginning on the Borrowing Date and continuing on the first Business Day of each
month thereafter; provided, that if the Borrowing Date of a Loan is not the
--------
first day of a month, then (i) the 36-month amortization period shall commence
on the first day of the next month following the Borrowing Date, and (ii)
Borrower shall pay to Lender, in advance on the Borrowing Date a payment of
Basic Interest that will accrue on such Loan from the Borrowing Date through the
last day of such month. Borrower shall also prepay on the Borrowing Date the
first amortization installment payment. The Additional Interest on each Loan
shall be paid on the first Business Day of the thirty-seventh (37th) full month
after the Borrowing Date of such Loan. The payment of amortization installments
of principal of and interest on a Loan in advance results in a higher effective
rate of interest than the stated Designated Rate applicable to such Loan.
2.4 Procedures for Borrowing.
(a) Borrower shall give Lender at least five (5) Business Days' prior
to a proposed Borrowing Date written notice of any request for borrowing
hereunder (a "Borrowing Request"). Each Borrowing Request shall be in
substantially the form of Exhibit "B" hereto, shall be executed by the chief
-----------
financial officer of Borrower, and shall state how much is requested, and shall
be accompanied by copies of invoices for the Equipment to be financed and such
additional information and documentation as Lender may deem reasonably necessary
to determine whether the proposed borrowing will comply with the limitations in
Section 2.2. To the Borrower's best knowledge after due inquiry of its senior
-----------
officers, the Borrowing Request shall also certify that all Equipment to be
financed thereby is owned by Borrower free and clear of all Liens except in
favor of Lender.
(b) No later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on the Borrowing
Date, if Borrower has satisfied the conditions precedent in Article 4, Lender
shall make the Loan available to Borrower in immediately available funds.
2.5 Interest. Basic Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the
each Loan shall accrue daily from the Borrowing Date until the Maturity Date at
the Designated Rate. On the Maturity Date of a Loan, Borrower shall pay the
Additional Interest thereon.
2.6 Interest Rate Calculation. Basic Interest, along with charges and fees
under this Agreement and any Loan Document, shall be calculated for actual days
elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, which results in higher interest, charge
or fee payments than if a 365-day year were used. In no event shall Borrower be
obligated to pay Lender interest, charges or fees at a rate in excess of the
highest rate permitted by applicable law from time to time in effect.
2.7 Default Interest. Any unpaid payments of principal or interest with
respect to any Loan shall bear interest from their respective maturities,
whether scheduled or accelerated, at the Designated Rate for such Loan plus five
----
percent (5.00%) per annum, until paid in full, whether before or after judgment
(the "Default Rate"). Borrower shall pay such interest on demand.
7
2.8 Lender's Records. Principal, Basic Interest, Additional Interest and
all other sums owed under any Loan Document shall be evidenced by entries in
records maintained by Lender for such purpose. Each payment on and any other
credits with respect to principal, Basic Interest, Additional Interest and all
other sums outstanding under any Loan Document shall be evidenced by entries in
such records. Absent manifest error, Lender's records shall be conclusive
evidence thereof.
2.9 Security. As security for all Obligations to Lender, Borrower shall
grant concurrently to Lender, or ensure that Lender is concurrently granted,
perfected security interests of first priority in all of the Equipment and other
Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement, subject only to Liens disclosed
to and approved by Lender prior to the Closing Date to this Agreement.
2.10 Issuance of Warrant to Lender. As additional consideration for the
making of the Loans under this Agreement, Lender shall be entitled to receive a
Warrant to purchase a number of shares of preferred stock of Borrower with a
value equal to seven percent (7%) of the Commitment. Thirty percent (30%) of the
Warrant Shares will be exercisable at a price per share of $0.50 and seventy
percent (70%) of the Warrant shares will be exercisable at a price per share
equal to the price paid by investors in Borrower's next round of venture capital
equity financing to be closed within one year from the date of this Agreement.
The Warrant issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D; shall be transferable by Lender, subject to
compliance with applicable securities laws; shall expire March 26, 2003; and
shall include piggy-back registration rights, a "net exercise" provision and
anti dilution protection that is identical to the antidilution protection
received by the other holders of Borrower's preferred stock.

Secured Party shall be entitled to, at Secured Party's option, without notice or
demand of any kind, (a) declare all or any part of the Indebtedness immediately
due and payable; (b) exercise any or all of the rights and remedies available to
a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law;
and (c) exercise any or all of Secured Party's rights and remedies provided for
in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document. The obligations of Debtor
under this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time any payment of any Indebtedness is rescinded or must
otherwise be returned by Secured Party upon, on account of, or in connection
with, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Debtor, or otherwise, all
as though such payment had not been made.
6.3 Sale of Collateral. After the occurrence of an Event of Default
Secured Party may sell all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private
sales, to itself, a wholesaler, retailer or investor, for cash, upon credit or
for future delivery, and at such price or prices as Secured Party may deem
commercially reasonable. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby
specifically waives all rights of redemption and any rights of stay or appraisal
which it has or may have under any applicable law in effect from time to time.
Any such public or private sales shall be held at such times and at such
place(s) as Secured Party may determine. In case of the sale of all or any part
of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the collateral so sold may
be retained by Secured Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser,
but Secured Party shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such
purchaser to pay for the Collateral and, in case of any such failure, such
Collateral may be resold. Secured Party may, instead of exercising its power of
sale, proceed to enforce its security interest in the Collateral by seeking a
judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.
6.4 Debtor's Obligation Upon Default. Upon the request of Secured Party
after the occurrence of an Event of Default Debtor will:
7
(a) Assemble and make available to Secured Party the Collateral at
such place(s) as Secured Party shall designate, segregating all Collateral so
that each item is capable of identification; and
(b) Permit Secured Party, by Secured Party's officers, employees,
agents and representatives, to enter any premises where any Collateral is
located, to take possession of the Collateral and to remove the Collateral or to
conduct any public or private sale of the Collateral, all without any liability
of Secured Party for rent or other compensation for the use of Debtor's
premises.
ARTICLE 7 - SPECIAL COLLATERAL PROVISIONS
7.1 Performance of Debtor's Obligations. Without having any obligation to
do so, Secured Party may perform or pay any obligation which Debtor has agreed
to perform or pay under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
payment or discharge of taxes or Liens levied or placed on or threatened against
the Collateral. In so performing or paying, Secured Party shall determine the
action to be taken and the amount necessary to discharge such obligations.
Debtor shall reimburse Secured Party on demand for any amounts paid by Secured
Party pursuant to this Section, which amounts shall constitute Indebtedness
secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest from the date of demand at the
rate applicable to overdue payments under the Loan Agreement.
7.2 Power of Attorney. For the purpose of protecting, preserving and
enforcing the Collateral and Secured Party's rights under this Agreement, Debtor
hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party, with full power of substitution, as
its attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to do any act which Debtor
is obligated to do, or Secured Party has the right to do, hereunder; to exercise
such rights with respect to the Collateral as Debtor might exercise; to use such
Equipment, Fixtures or other property as Debtor might use; to enter Debtor's
premises; to give notice of Secured Party's security interest in and to collect
the Collateral and the Proceeds; and to execute and file in Debtor's name any
financing statements, amendments and continuation statements necessary or
desirable to perfect or continue the perfection of Secured Party's security
interests in the Collateral. Debtor hereby ratifies all that Secured Party shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this appointment.
7.3 Authorization for Secured Party to Take Certain Action. The power of
attorney created in Section 7.3 is a power coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable. The powers conferred
8
on Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral
and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise such powers.
Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as
a result of the exercise of such powers and in no event shall Secured Party or
any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives be
responsible to Debtor for any act or failure to act, except for gross negligence
or willful misconduct. Secured Party may exercise this power of attorney without
notice to or assent of Debtor, in the name of Debtor, or in Secured Party's own
name, from time to time in Secured Party's sole discretion and at Debtor's
expense. To further carry out the terms of this Agreement, Secured Party may
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default:
(a) Execute any statements or documents to take possession of, and
endorse and collect and receive delivery or payment of, any checks, drafts,
notes, acceptances or other instruments and documents constituting the payment
of amounts due and to become due or any performance to be rendered with respect
to the Collateral;
(b) Sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of
lading, storage or warehouse receipts; drafts, certificates and statements under
any commercial or standby letter of credit, assignments, leases, bills of sale,
or any other documents relating to the Collateral, including without limitation
the Records;
(c) Use or operate Collateral or any other property of Debtor for the
purpose of preserving or liquidating Collateral;
(d) File any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any
court of law or equity or as otherwise deemed appropriate by Secured Party for
the purpose of collecting any and all monies due or securing any performance to
be rendered with respect to the Collateral;
(e) Commence, prosecute or defend any suits, actions or proceedings
or as otherwise deemed appropriate by Secured Party for the purpose of
protecting or collecting the Collateral. In furtherance of this right, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default Secured Party may apply for the appointment of
a receiver or similar official to operate Debtor's business, and, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby waives any right to oppose such
appointment;
(f) Prepare, adjust, execute, deliver and receive payment under
insurance claims, and collect and receive payment of and endorse any instrument
in payment of loss or returned
9
premiums or any other insurance refund or return, and apply soon amounts, at
Secured Party's sole discretion, toward repayment of the Indebtedness or
replacement of the Collateral.
7.4 Application of Proceeds. Any Proceeds and other monies or property
received by Secured Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any Loan
Document may be applied by Secured Party first to the payment of expenses of
collection, including without limitation to reasonable attorneys' fees, and then
to the payment of the Indebtedness in such order of application as Secured Party
may elect. Notwithstanding the rights given to Debtor pursuant to California
Civil Code sections 1479 and 2822 or equivalent provisions in the laws of the
state specified in the governing law clause of this document (and any amendments
or successors thereto), to designate how payments will be applied, Debtor hereby
waives such rights and Secured Party shall have the right in its sole discretion
to determine the order and method of the application of payments received from
Debtor or from the sale or disposition of the Collateral and to revise such
application prospectively or retroactively at its discretion.
7.5 Deficiency. If the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral are
insufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such sale and the payment in
full of all Indebtedness, plus all other sums required to be expended or
distributed by Secured Party, then Debtor shall be liable for any such
deficiency.
7.6 Secured Party Transfer. Upon the transfer of all or any part of the
Indebtedness, Secured Party may transfer all or any part of its interest in the
Collateral and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability and
responsibility with respect to such interest in the Collateral so transferred,
and the transferee shall be vested with all the rights and powers of Secured
Party hereunder with respect to such interest in the Collateral so transferred.
ARTICLE 8 - GENERAL PROVISIONS
8.1 Notices. Any notice given by any party under this Agreement shall be
given in the manner prescribed in the Loan Agreement.
8.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon Debtor, its
permitted successors, representatives and assigns, and shall inure to the
benefit of Secured Party and its successors, representatives and assigns;
provided however that Debtor may not assign or transfer Debtor's obligations
under this Agreement without Secured Party's prior written consent. Secured
Party reserves the right to sell, assign, or transfer its rights and powers
under this Agreement in whole or in part without
10
notice to Debtor. In that connection, Secured Party may disclose all documents
and information which Secured Party now or hereafter may have relating to this
Agreement, Debtor or Debtor's business.
8.3 No Waiver. Any waiver, consent or approval by Secured Party of any
Event of Default or breach of any provision, condition or covenant of this
Agreement or any Loan Document must be in writing and shall be effective only to
the extent set forth in writing. No waiver or any breach of default shall be
deemed a waiver of any later breach or default of the same or any other
provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents. No failure or delay on
the part of Secured Party in exercising any power, right or privilege under this
Agreement or any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single
or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege shall preclude any
further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any further power, right or
privilege.
8.4 Rights Cumulative. All rights and remedies existing under this
Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any other rights or remedies
available under contract or applicable law.
8.5 Unenforceable Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be so only as to such
jurisdiction and only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, but
all the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain valid and
enforceable.
8.6 Governing Law, Waiver of Notice. Except as may be otherwise provided
by the Uniform Commercial Code or in any addendum hereto, this Agreement shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby waives presentment,
demand, protest, notice of dishonor and all other notices and demands as well as
any applicable statute of limitations.
8.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, is intended by Debtor and Secured Party as the final expression of
Debtor's obligations to Secured Party in connection with the Collateral and
supersedes all prior understandings or agreements concerning the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by Debtor and
accepted by Secured Party in writing.
11
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date set
forth in the preamble.
