▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ("Creditor"); and National Bank of California, Corporate
Banking Department, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ("Lender").
REQUESTED FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATIONS. Creditor and Borrower each want Lender to
provide financial accommodations to Borrower in the form of (A) new credit or
loan advances, (B) an extension of time to pay or other compromises regarding
all or part of Borrower's present indebtedness to Lender, or (C) other benefits
to Borrower. Borrower and Creditor each represent and acknowledge to Lender that
Creditor will benefit as a result of these financial accommodations from Lender
to Borrower, and Creditor acknowledges receipt of valuable consideration for
entering into this Agreement. Based on the representations and acknowledgments
contained in this Agreement, Borrower and Creditor agree with Lender as follows:
SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS. The words "Subordinated Indebtedness" as used in this
Agreement mean all present and future indebtedness, obligations, liabilities,
claims, rights, and demands of any kind which may be now or hereafter owing from
Borrower to Creditor. The term "Subordinated Indebtedness" is used in its
broadest sense and includes without limitation all principal, all interest, all
costs, attorneys' fees, all sums paid for the purpose of protecting the rights
of a holder of security, all contingent obligations of Borrower (such as a
guaranty), and all other obligations, secured or unsecured, of any nature
whatsoever.
SUPERIOR INDEBTEDNESS. The words "Superior Indebtedness" as used in this
Agreement mean and include all present and future indebtedness, obligations,
liabilities, claims, rights, and demands of any kind which may be now or
hereafter owing from Borrower to Lender. The term "Superior Indebtedness" is
used in its broadest sense and includes without limitation all principal, all
interest, all costs, attorneys' fees, all sums paid for the purpose of
protecting Lender's rights in security (such as paying for insurance on
collateral if the owner fails to do so), all contingent obligations of Borrower
(such as a guaranty), all obligations arising by reason of Borrower's accounts
with Lender (such as an overdraft on a checking account), and all other
obligations of Borrower to Lender, secured or unsecured, of any nature
whatsoever.
SUBORDINATION. All Subordinated Indebtedness of Borrower to Creditor is and
shall be subordinated in all respects to all Superior Indebtedness of Borrower
to Lender. If Creditor holds one or more Security Interests, whether now
existing or hereafter acquired, in any of Borrower's real property or personal
property, Creditor also subordinates all Creditor's Security Interests to all
Security Interests held by Lender, whether now existing or hereafter acquired.
PAYMENTS TO CREDITOR. Borrower will not make and Creditor will not accept, at
any time while any Superior Indebtedness is owing to Lender, (A) any payment
upon any Subordinated Indebtedness, (B) any advance, transfer, or assignment of
assets to Creditor in any form whatsoever that would reduce at any time or in
any way the amount of Subordinated Indebtedness, or (C) any transfer of any
assets as security for the Subordinated Indebtedness, except upon Lender's prior
written consent.
In the event of any distribution, division, or application, whether partial or
complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or
any part of Borrower's assets, or the proceeds of Borrower's assets, in whatever
form, to creditors of Borrower or upon any indebtedness of Borrower, whether by
reason of the liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of Borrower, or by
reason of any execution sale, receivership, insolvency, or bankruptcy
proceeding, assignment for the benefit of creditors, proceedings for
reorganization, or readjustment of Borrower or Borrower's properties, then and
in such event, (A) the Superior Indebtedness shall be paid in full before any
payment is made upon the Subordinated Indebtedness, and (B) all payments and
distributions, of any kind or character and whether in cash, property, or
securities, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or in respect of the
Subordinated Indebtedness shall be paid or delivered directly to Lender for
application in payment of the amounts then due on the Superior Indebtedness
until the Superior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full.
In order that Lender may establish its right to prove claims and recover for its
own account dividends based on the Subordinated Indebtedness, Creditor does
hereby assign all its right, title, and interest in such claims to Lender.
Creditor further agrees to supply such information and evidence, provide access
to and copies of such of Creditor's records as may pertain to the Subordinated
Indebtedness, and execute such instruments as may be required by Lender to
enable Lender to enforce all such claims and collect all dividends, payments, or
other disbursements which may be made on account of the Subordinated
Indebtedness. For such purposes, Creditor hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender
in its discretion to make and present for or on behalf of Creditor such proofs
of claims on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness as Lender may deem
expedient and proper and to vote such claims in any such proceeding and to
receive and collect any and all dividends, payments, or other disbursements made
thereon in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and to apply the same on
account of the Superior Indebtedness.
Should any payment, distribution, security, or proceeds thereof be received by
Creditor at any time on the Subordinated Indebtedness contrary to the terms of
this Agreement, Creditor immediately will deliver the same to Lender in
precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of
Creditor if necessary), for application on or to secure the Superior
Indebtedness, whether it is due or not due, and until so delivered the same
shall be held in trust by Creditor as property of Lender. In the event Creditor
fails to make any such endorsement or assignment, Lender, or any of its officers
on behalf of Lender, is hereby irrevocably authorized by Creditor to make the
same.

to Creditor a promissory note evidencing any book account or claim now or

risks under this Agreement, and Creditor further agrees that Lender shall have
no obligation to disclose to Creditor information or material acquired by Lender

demand, or notice of any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the
Superior Indebtedness or of any nonpayment related to any Security Interests, or

endorser, or other guarantor in connection with the Superior Indebtedness, or in
connection with the creation of new or additional Superior Indebtedness; (C) to
resort for payment or to proceed directly or at once against any person,
including Borrower; (D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any Security
Interests held by Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other

any act or omission of any kind, at any time, with respect to any matter
whatsoever.
LENDER'S RIGHTS. Lender may take or omit any and all actions with respect to the
Superior Indebtedness or any Security Interests for the Superior Indebtedness
without affecting whatsoever any of Lender's rights under this Agreement. In
particular, without limitation, Lender may, without notice of any kind to
Creditor, (A) make one or more additional secured or unsecured loans to
Borrower; (B) repeatedly alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate, or
otherwise change the time for payment or other terms of the Superior
Indebtedness or any part thereof, including increases and decreases of the rate
of interest on the Superior Indebtedness; extensions may be repeated and may be
for longer than the original loan term; (C) take and hold Security Interests for
the payment of the Superior Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, and
release any such Security Interests, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one or
more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or guarantors on any terms or manner
Lender chooses; (E) determine how, when and what application of payments and
credits, shall be made on the Superior Indebtedness; (F) apply such security and
direct the order or manner of sale thereof, as Lender in its discretion may
determine; and (G) assign this Agreement in whole or in part.
DEFAULT BY BORROWER. If Borrower becomes insolvent or bankrupt, this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect.
DURATION AND TERMINATION. This Agreement will take effect when received-by
Lender, without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, in writing or
otherwise, and will remain in full force and effect until Creditor shall notify
Lender in writing at the address shown above to the contrary. Any such notice
shall not affect the Superior Indebtedness owed Lender by Borrower at the time
of such notice, nor shall such notice affect Superior Indebtedness thereafter
granted in compliance with a commitment made by Lender to Borrower prior to
receipt of such notice, nor shall such notice affect any renewals of or
substitutions for any of the foregoing. Such notice shall affect only
indebtedness of Borrower to Lender arising after receipt of such notice and not
arising from financial assistance granted by Lender to Borrower in compliance
with Lender's obligations under a commitment. Any notes lodged with Lender
pursuant to the section titled "Creditor's Notes" above need not be returned
until this Agreement has no further force or effect.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:
Amendments. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to
the matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or amendment
to this Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed
by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration
or amendment.
Arbitration. Borrower and Creditor and Lender agree that all disputes,
claims and controversies between them whether individual, joint, or
class in nature, arising from this Agreement or otherwise, including
without limitation contract and tort disputes, shall be arbitrated
pursuant to the Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect
at the time the claim is filed, upon request of either party. No act to
take or dispose of any Collateral shall constitute a waiver of this
arbitration agreement or be prohibited by this arbitration agreement.
This includes, without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a
temporary restraining order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of
trust or mortgage; obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a
receiver; or exercising any rights relating to personal property,
including taking or disposing of such property with or without judicial
process pursuant to Article 9 of the 'Uniform Commercial Code. Any
disputes, claims, or controversies concerning the lawfulness or
reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any right, concerning any
Collateral, including any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise modify
any agreement relating to the Collateral, shall also be arbitrated,
provided however that no arbitrator shall have the right or the power
to enjoin or restrain any act of any party. Borrower and Creditor and
Lender agree that in the event of an action for judicial foreclosure
pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726, or any
similar provision in any other state, the commencement of such an
action will not constitute a waiver of the right to arbitrate and the
court shall refer to arbitration as much of such action, including
counterclaims, as lawfully may be referred to arbitration. Judgment
upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude any party
from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction.
The statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar
doctrines which would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a
party shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and the
commencement of an arbitration proceeding shall be deemed the
commencement of an action for these purposes. The Federal Arbitration
Act shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and enforcement of
this arbitration provision.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Creditor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Agreement. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce
this Agreement, and Creditor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and
legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys'
fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts
to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any
anticipated post-judgment collection services. Creditor also shall pay
all court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the
court.

any such Superior Indebtedness may be transferable.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any
rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and
signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in
exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall
not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to
demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of
this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing
between Lender and Creditor, shall constitute a waiver of any of
Lender's rights or of any of Creditor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this
Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall
not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such
consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or
withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

this Agreement hereby waive the right to any jury trial in any action,
