3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.
The Borrower represents and warrants to Silicon as follows, and the Borrower
covenants that the following representations will continue to be true, and that
the Borrower will comply with all of the following covenants:
3.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY. The Borrower, if a corporation, is and
will continue to be, duly authorized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. The Borrower is and
will continue to be qualified and licensed to do business in all jurisdictions
in which any failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the
Borrower. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this
Agreement, and all other documents contemplated hereby have been duly and
validly authorized, are enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with
their terms, and do not violate any law or any provision of, and are not grounds
for acceleration under, any agreement or instrument which is binding upon the
Borrower.
3.2 NAME; TRADE NAMES AND STYLES. The name of the Borrower set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed on the Schedule hereto are
all prior names of the Borrower and all of Borrower's present and prior trade
names*. The Borrower shall give Silicon 15 days' prior written notice before
changing its name or doing business under any other name. The Borrower has
complied, and will in the future comply, with all laws relating to the conduct
of business under a fictitious business name.
* FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS
3.3 PLACE OF BUSINESS; LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. The address set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is the Borrower's chief executive office. In addition,
the Borrower has places of business and Collateral is located only at the
locations set forth on the Schedule to this Agreement. The Borrower will give
Silicon at least 15 days prior written notice before changing its chief
executive office or locating the Collateral at any other location.
3.4 TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS. The Borrower is now, and will at all
times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items
of equipment which are leased by the Borrower. The Collateral now is and will
remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests,
encumbrances and adverse claims, except for the following ("Permitted Liens"):
(i) purchase money security interests in specific items of equipment; (ii)
leases of specific items of equipment; (iii) liens for taxes not yet payable;
(iv) additional security interests and liens consented to in writing by Silicon
in its reasonable discretion, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
and (v) security interests being terminated substantially concurrently with this
Agreement. Silicon will have the right to require, as a condition to its consent
under subparagraph (iv) above, that the holder of the additional security
interest or lien sign an intercreditor agreement on Silicon's then standard
form, acknowledge that the security interest is subordinate to the security
interest in favor of Silicon, and agree not to take any action to enforce its
subordinate security interest so long as any Obligations remain outstanding, and
that the Borrower agree that any uncured default in any obligation secured by
the subordinate security interest shall also constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement. * Silicon will have, a perfected and enforceable security
interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and the
Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims
of others. None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property
in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture.

proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (ii) notifies
Silicon in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the
proceedings, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to keep the

will not withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete termination

6.2 REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and at any time
thereafter, Silicon, at its option, and without notice or demand of any kind
(all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower), may do any one or
more of the following: (a) Cease making Loans or otherwise extending credit to
the Borrower under this Agreement or any other document or agreement; (b)
Accelerate and declare all or any part of the Obligations to be immediately due,
payable, and performable, notwithstanding any deferred or installment payments
allowed by any instrument evidencing or relating to
-7-

SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
any Obligation; (c) Take possession of any or all of the Collateral wherever it
may be found, and for that purpose the Borrower hereby authorizes Silicon
without judicial process to enter onto any of the Borrower's premises without
interference to search for, take possession of, keep, store, or remove any of
the Collateral, and remain on the premises or cause a custodian to remain on the
premises in exclusive control thereof without charge for so long as Silicon
deems it reasonably necessary in order to complete the enforcement of its rights
under this Agreement or any other agreement; provided, however, that should
Silicon seek to take possession of any or all of the Collateral by Court
process, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives: (i) any bond and any surety or
security relating thereto required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as an
incident to such possession; (ii) (intentionally not used); and (iii) any
requirement that Silicon retain possession of and not dispose of any such
Collateral until after trial or final judgment; (d) Require the Borrower to
assemble any or all of the Collateral and make it available to Silicon at
places designated by Silicon which are reasonably convenient to Silicon and the
Borrower, and to remove the Collateral to such locations as Silicon may deem
advisable; (e) Require Borrower to deliver to Silicon, in kind, all checks and
other payments received with respect to all accounts and general intangibles,
together with any necessary indorsements, within one day after the date
received by the Borrower; (f) Complete the processing, manufacturing or repair
of any Collateral prior to a disposition thereof and, for such purpose and for
the purpose of removal, Silicon shall have the right to use the Borrower's
premises, vehicles, hoists, lifts, cranes, equipment and all other property
without charge; (g) Sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral
in its condition at the time Silicon obtains possession of it or after further
manufacturing, processing or repair, at any one or more public and/or private
sales, in lots or in bulk, for cash, exchange or other property, or on credit,
and to adjourn any such sale from time to time without notice other than oral
announcement at the time scheduled for sale. Silicon shall have the right to
conduct such disposition on the Borrower's premises without charge, for such
time or times as Silicon deems reasonable, or on Silicon's premises, or
elsewhere and the Collateral need not be located at the place of disposition.
Silicon may directly or through any affiliated company purchase or lease any
Collateral at any such public disposition, and if permissible under applicable
law, at any private disposition. Any sale or other disposition of Collateral
shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability the Borrower may have if any
Collateral is defective as to title or physical condition or otherwise at the
time of sale; (h) Demand payment of, and collect any accounts and general
intangibles comprising Collateral and, in connection therewith, the Borrower
irrevocably authorizes Silicon to endorse or sign the Borrower's name on all
collections, receipts, instruments and other documents, to take possession of
and open mail addressed to the Borrower and remove therefrom payments made with
respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Silicon's
sole discretion, to grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and
settle accounts and the like for less than face value; (i) Offset against any
sums in any of Borrower's general, special or other deposit accounts with
Silicon; and (j) Demand and receive possession of any of the Borrower's federal
and state income tax returns and the books and records utilized in the
preparation thereof or referring thereto. All reasonable attorneys' fees,
expenses, costs, liabilities and obligations incurred by Silicon with respect
to the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, shall be
due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest
rate applicable to any of the Obligations. Without limiting any of Silicon's
rights and remedies, from and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional
four percent per annum.
6.3 STANDARDS FOR DETERMINING COMMERCIAL REASONABLENESS. The Borrower and
Silicon agree that a sale or other disposition (collectively, "sale") of any
Collateral which complies with the following standards will conclusively be
deemed to be commercially reasonable: (i) Notice of the sale is given to the
Borrower at least * days prior to the sale, and, in the case of a public sale,
notice of the sale is published at least * days before the sale in a newspaper
of general circulation in the county where the sale is to be conducted; (ii)
Notice of the sale describes the collateral in general, nonspecific terms; (iii)
The sale is conducted at a place designated by Silicon, with or without the
Collateral being present; (iv) The sale commences at any time between 8:00 a.m.
and 6:00 p.m; (v) Payment of the purchase price in cash or by cashier's check or
wire transfer is required; (vi) With respect to any sale of any of the
Collateral, Silicon may (but is not obligated to) direct any prospective
purchaser to ascertain directly from the Borrower any and all information
concerning the same. Silicon may employ other methods of noticing and selling
the Collateral, in its discretion, if they are commercially reasonable.
* TEN
6.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, without
limiting Silicon's other rights and remedies, the Borrower grants to Silicon an
irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, authorizing and
permitting Silicon (acting through any of its employees, attorneys or agents) at
any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or without notice to the
Borrower, and at the Borrower's expense, to do any or all of the following, in
the Borrower's name or otherwise: (a) Execute on behalf of the Borrower any
documents that Silicon may, in its sole and
-8-
9
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
absolute discretion, deem advisable in order to perfect and maintain Silicon's
security interest in the Collateral, or in order to exercise a right of the
Borrower or Silicon, or in order to fully consummate all the transactions
contemplated under this Agreement, and all other present and future agreements;
(b) Execute on behalf of the Borrower any document exercising, transferring or
assigning any option to purchase, sell or otherwise dispose of or to lease (as
lessor or lessee) any real or personal property which is part of Silicon's
Collateral or in which Silicon has an interest; (c) Execute on behalf of the
Borrower, any invoices relating to any account, any draft against any account
debtor and any notice to any account debtor, any proof of claim in bankruptcy,
any Notice of Lien, claim of mechanic's, materialman's or other lien, or
assignment or satisfaction of mechanic's, materialman's or other lien; (d) Take
control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of payment or proceeds of
Collateral; endorse the name of the Borrower upon any instruments, or documents,
evidence of payment or Collateral that may come into Silicon's possession; (e)
Endorse all checks and other forms of remittances received by Silicon; (f) Pay,
contest or settle any lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest and adverse
claim in or to any of the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or
otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; (g) Grant
extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle accounts and general
intangibles for less than face value and execute all releases and other
documents in connection therewith; (h) Pay any sums required on account of the
Borrower's taxes or to secure the release of any liens therefor, or both; (i)
Settle and adjust, and give releases of, any insurance claim that relates to any
of the Collateral and obtain payment therefor; (j) Instruct any third party
having custody or control of any books or records belonging to, or relating to,
the Borrower to give Silicon the same rights of access and other rights with
respect thereto as Silicon has under this Agreement; and (k) Take any action or
pay any sum required of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and any other
present or future agreements. Silicon shall exercise the foregoing powers in a
commercially reasonable manner. Any and all reasonable sums paid and any and all
reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees
incurred by Silicon with respect to the foregoing shall be added to and become
part of the Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at
a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
In no event shall Silicon's rights under the foregoing power of attorney or any
of Silicon's other rights under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that
Silicon is in control of the business, management or properties of the Borrower.
6.5 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds realized as the result of any sale
of the Collateral shall be applied by Silicon first to the costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon in the exercise
of its rights under this Agreement, second to the interest due upon any of the
Obligations, and third to the principal of the Obligations, in such order as
Silicon shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to the
Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; the Borrower shall remain
liable to Silicon for any deficiency. If, Silicon, in its sole discretion,
directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit
transaction with any purchaser at any sale or other disposition of Collateral,
Silicon shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its sole discretion,
of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of purchase price or
deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Silicon
of the cash therefor.
6.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in
this Agreement, Silicon shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a
secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code and under all other
applicable laws, and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the
future entered into between Silicon and the Borrower, and all of such rights and
remedies are cumulative and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by
Silicon of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an
election, nor bar Silicon from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any
other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Silicon to exercise any rights
or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies
shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been
fully paid and performed.
7. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
7.1 NOTICES. All notices to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be given either personally or by regular first-class mail, or
certified mail return receipt requested, addressed to Silicon or the Borrower at
the addresses shown in the heading to this Agreement, or at any other address
designated in writing by one party to the other party. All notices shall be
deemed to have been given upon delivery in the case of notices personally
delivered to the Borrower or to Silicon, or at the expiration of two business
days following the deposit thereof in the United States mail, with postage
prepaid.
7.2 SEVERABILITY. Should any provision of this Agreement be held by any court
of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such defect shall not
affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and
effect.
7.3 INTEGRATION. This Agreement and such other written agreements, documents
and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith are the final, entire
and complete agreement between the Borrower and Silicon and supersede all prior
-9-
10
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and contemporaneous negotiations and oral representations and agreements, all of
which are merged and integrated in this Agreement. There are no oral
understandings, representations or agreements between the parties which are not
set forth in this Agreement or in other written agreements signed by the parties
in connection herewith.
7.4 WAIVERS. The failure of Silicon at any time or times to require the
Borrower to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any
other present or future agreement between the Borrower and Silicon shall not
waive or diminish any right of Silicon later to demand and receive strict
compliance therewith. Any waiver of any default shall not waive or affect any
other default, whether prior or subsequent thereto. None of the provisions of
this Agreement or any other agreement now or in the future executed by the
Borrower and delivered to Silicon shall be deemed to have been waived by any act
or knowledge of Silicon or its agents or employees, but only by a specific
written waiver signed by an officer of Silicon and delivered to the Borrower.
The Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of default or
dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise, settlement,
extension or renewal of any commercial paper, instrument, account, general
intangible, document or guaranty at any time held by Silicon on which the
Borrower is or may in any way be liable, and notice of any action taken by
Silicon, unless expressly required by this Agreement.
7.5 NO LIABILITY FOR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE. Neither Silicon, nor any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other person affiliated
with or representing Silicon shall be liable for any claims, demands, losses or
damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered by the
Borrower or any other party through the ordinary negligence of Silicon, or any
of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other person
affiliated with or representing Silicon *.
* WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTIONS AND ACTIONS OF SILICON ASSOCIATED WITH THE
LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE EXCHANGE CONTRACTS (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE
SCHEDULE TO LOAN AGREEMENT ATTACHED HERETO).
7.6 AMENDMENT. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may not be waived or
amended, except in a writing executed by the Borrower and a duly authorized
officer of Silicon.
7.7 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance by the
Borrower of each and every obligation under this Agreement.
7.8 ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS. The Borrower shall reimburse Silicon for all
reasonable attorneys' fees and all filing, recording, search, title insurance,
appraisal, audit, and other reasonable costs incurred by Silicon, pursuant to,
or in connection with, or relating to this Agreement (whether or not a lawsuit
is filed), including, but not limited to, any reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs Silicon incurs in order to do the following: prepare and negotiate this
Agreement and the documents relating to this Agreement; obtain legal advice in
connection with this Agreement; enforce, or seek to enforce, any of its rights;
prosecute actions against, or defend actions by, account debtors; commence,
intervene in, or defend any action or proceeding; initiate any complaint to be
relieved of the automatic stay in bankruptcy; file or prosecute any probate
claim, bankruptcy claim, third-party claim, or other claim; examine, audit,
copy, and inspect any of the Collateral or any of the Borrower's books and
records; protect, obtain possession of, lease, dispose of, or otherwise enforce
Silicon's security interest in, the Collateral; and otherwise represent Silicon
in any litigation relating to the Borrower. In satisfying Borrower's obligation
hereunder to reimburse Silicon for attorneys fees, Borrower may, for
convenience, issue checks directly to Silicon's attorneys, Levy, Small & ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
but Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Levy, Small & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is representing
only Silicon and not Borrower in connection with this Agreement. If either
Silicon or the Borrower files any lawsuit against the other predicated on a
breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled
to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys' fees, including (but not limited
to) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the enforcement of,
execution upon or defense of any order, decree, award or judgment. All
attorneys' fees and costs to which Silicon may be entitled pursuant to this
Paragraph shall immediately become part of the Borrower's Obligations, shall be
due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest
rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
7.9 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs,
beneficiaries and representatives of the parties hereto; provided, however, that
the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Silicon, and any prohibited assignment
shall be void. No consent by Silicon to any assignment shall release the
Borrower from its liability for the Obligations.
7.10 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If the Borrower consists of more than one
person, their liability shall be joint and several, and the compromise of any
claim with, or the release of, any Borrower shall not constitute a compromise
with, or a release of, any other Borrower.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.11 PARAGRAPH HEADINGS; CONSTRUCTION. Paragraph headings are only used in this
Agreement for convenience. The Borrower acknowledges that the headings may not
describe completely the subject matter of the applicable paragraph, and the
headings shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit, define or interpret
any term or provision of this Agreement. This Agreement has been fully reviewed
and negotiated between the parties and no uncertainty or ambiguity in any term
or provision of this Agreement shall be construed strictly against Silicon or
the Borrower under any rule of construction or otherwise.
7.12 MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER AND SILICON EACH HEREBY WAIVE
THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT
OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE
INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN SILICON AND THE BORROWER, OR ANY CONDUCT, ACTS
OR OMISSIONS OF SILICON OR THE BORROWER OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH SILICON OR THE
BORROWER, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE.
7.13 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE. This Agreement and all acts and
transactions hereunder and all rights and obligations of Silicon and the
Borrower shall be governed by, and in accordance with, the laws of the State of
California. Any undefined term used in this Agreement that is defined in the
California Uniform Commercial Code shall have the meaning assigned to that term
in the California Uniform Commercial Code. As a material part of the
consideration to Silicon to enter into this Agreement, the Borrower (i) agrees
that all actions and proceedings relating directly or indirectly hereto shall,
at Silicon's option, be litigated in courts located within California, and that
the exclusive venue therefor shall be Orange County; (ii) consents to the
jurisdiction and venue of any such court and consents to service of process in
any such action or proceeding by personal delivery or any other method permitted
by law; and (iii) waives any and all rights the Borrower may have to object to
the jurisdiction of any such court, or to transfer or change the venue of any
such action or proceeding.

CREDIT LIMIT
(Section 1.1): An amount not to exceed * the lesser of:
(i) $5,000,000 at any one time outstanding; OR
(ii) 75% of the Net Amount of Borrower's accounts, which Silicon in
its ** discretion deems eligible for borrowing,
provided, however, that the minimum amount of a Loan
shall be $100,000.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX CORPORATION, A
CALIFORNIA CORPORATION ("EMULEX"), INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
** REASONABLE
"Net Amount" of an account means the gross amount of the account, minus
all applicable sales, use, excise and other similar
taxes and minus all discounts, credits and allowances
of any nature granted or claimed.
Without limiting the fact that the determination of which accounts are
eligible for borrowing is a matter of Silicon's
discretion, the following will not be deemed eligible
for borrowing: accounts outstanding for more than 90
days from the invoice date, accounts subject to any
contingencies, accounts owing from an account debtor
outside the United States (the "Foreign Accounts")
(unless pre-approved by Silicon in its discretion, or
backed by a letter of credit satisfactory to Silicon,
or FCIA insured satisfactory to Silicon)*, accounts
owing from one account debtor to the extent they
exceed 25% of the total eligible accounts outstanding,
accounts owing from an affiliate of Borrower, and
accounts
-2-
15
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
owing from an account debtor to whom Borrower is or
may be liable for goods purchased from such account
debtor or otherwise. In addition, if more than 50% of
the accounts owing from an account debtor are
outstanding more than 90 days from the invoice date or
are otherwise not eligible accounts, then all accounts
owing from that account debtor will be deemed
ineligible for borrowing.
* (PROVIDED THAT PRIOR TO OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A CONDITION,
FOREIGN ACCOUNTS SHALL NOT BE DEEMED INELIGIBLE BY
VIRTUE OF THE LOCATION OF THE ACCOUNTS DEBTORS
RELATING THERETO OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES
(REFERRED TO AS THE "EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS
ELIGIBILITY"), WITH THE UNDERSTANDING AND AGREEMENT
THAT AFTER THE OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A
CONDITION, THE EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS ELIGIBILITY
SHALL IMMEDIATELY CEASE TO BE EFFECTIVE)
LETTER OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT Silicon, in its reasonable discretion, will from time
to time during the term of this Agreement issue
letters of credit for the account of the Borrower
("Letters of Credit"), in an aggregate amount at any
one time outstanding * not to exceed $1,000,000, upon
the request of the Borrower, provided that, on the
date the Letters of Credit are to be issued, Borrower
has available to it Loans in an amount equal to or
greater than the face amount of the Letters of Credit
to be issued. Prior to the issuance of any Letters of
Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Silicon
Applications for Letters of Credit and such other
documentation as Silicon shall specify (the "Letter of
Credit Documentation"). Fees for the Letters of Credit
shall be as provided in the Letter of Credit
Documentation.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
The Credit Limit set forth above and the Loans available under this
Agreement at any time shall be reduced by the face
amount of Letters of Credit from time to time
outstanding.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
CONTRACT SUBLIMIT Up to $1,000,000 of the Credit Limit * may be utilized for
spot and future foreign exchange contracts (the
"Exchange Contracts"). The Credit Limit available at
any time shall be reduced by the following amounts
(the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") on each day (the
"Determination Date"): (i) on all outstanding Exchange
Contracts on which delivery is to be effected or
settlement allowed more than two business days from
the Determination Date, 20% of the gross amount of the
Exchange Contracts; plus (ii) on all outstanding
Exchange Contracts on which delivery is to be effected
or settlement allowed within two business days after
the Determination Date, 100% of the gross amount of
the Exchange Contracts. In lieu of the Foreign
Exchange Reserve
-3-
16
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for 100% of the gross amount of any Exchange Contract,
the Borrower may request that Silicon debit the
Borrower's bank account with Silicon for such amount,
provided Borrower has immediately available funds in
such amount in its bank account.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
Borrower may provide, by written notification to Silicon, instructions
to terminate any of the Exchange Contracts, except
that Borrower may not terminate an Exchange Contract
within two business days of the date delivery is to be
effected or settlement allowed. Further, Silicon may,
in its discretion, terminate the Exchange Contracts at
any time (a) that an Event of Default occurs or (b)
that there is not sufficient availability under the
Credit Limit and Borrower does not have available
funds in its bank account to satisfy the Foreign
Exchange Reserve. If either Silicon or Borrower
terminates the Exchange Contracts, and without
limitation of the FX Indemnity Provisions (as referred
to below), Borrower agrees to reimburse Silicon for
any and all fees, costs and expenses relating thereto
or arising in connection therewith.
Borrower shall not permit the total gross amount of all Exchange
Contracts on which delivery is to be effected and
settlement allowed in any two business day period to
be more than $500,000, nor shall Borrower permit the
total gross amount of all Exchange Contracts to which
Borrower is a party, outstanding at any one time, to
exceed $1,000,000.
The Borrower shall execute all standard form applications and
agreements of Silicon in connection with the Exchange
Contracts, and without limiting any of the terms of
such applications and agreements, the Borrower will
pay all standard fees and charges of Silicon in
connection with the Exchange Contracts.
Without limiting any of the other terms of this Loan Agreement or any
such standard form applications and agreements of
Silicon, Borrower agrees to indemnify Silicon and hold
it harmless, from and against any and all claims,
debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, actions,
costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees of counsel of Silicon's choice), of
every nature and description, which it may sustain or
incur, based upon, arising out of, or in any way
relating to any of the Exchange Contracts or any
transactions relating thereto or contemplated thereby
(collectively referred to as the "FX Indemnity
Provisions").
The Exchange Contracts shall have maturity dates no later than the
Maturity Date.
INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2): A rate equal to the "Prime Rate" in effect from
time to time, plus .50% per annum. Interest shall be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed. "Prime Rate" means the
rate announced from time to time by Silicon as its
"prime rate;" it is a base rate upon which other rates
charged by Silicon are
-4-
17
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
based, and it is not necessarily the best rate
available at Silicon. The interest rate applicable to
the Obligations shall change on each date there is a
change in the Prime Rate.
LOAN ORIGINATION FEE
(Section 1.3): $25,000 per annum payable and due in advance. (Any Commitment
Fee previously paid by the Borrower in connection with
this loan shall be credited against this Fee.)
MATURITY DATE
(Section 5.1): APRIL 5, 1996. Silicon agrees to use reasonable efforts to
review the maturity of this credit facility on an
annual basis approximately one year prior to the then
applicable Maturity Date, although any failure by
Silicon to undertake any such review shall have no
effect whatsoever on the then applicable Maturity
Date. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any
decision by Silicon to extend the Maturity Date shall
be in Silicon's sole and absolute discretion, that any
extension thereof shall only be accomplished by
written notification to Borrower from Silicon, and
that Silicon's agreement to use reasonable efforts to
review the maturity of this credit facility shall not
mean or imply that Silicon will decide to extend the
Maturity Date at such time.

DATE: APRIL 25, 1994
THIS AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT is entered into between SILICON VALLEY
BANK ("Silicon") and the borrowers named above (jointly and severally referred
to as the "Borrower").
The Parties hereby agree to amend the Loan and Security Agreement
between them, dated March 31, 1994 (the "Loan Agreement"), as follows:
1. REVISED CREDIT LIMIT. The section of the Schedule to Loan Agreement
entitled "Credit Limit (Section 1.1)" is hereby deleted and replaced with the
following:
"CREDIT LIMIT
(Section 1.1): An amount not to exceed * the lesser of:
(i) $5,000,000 at any one time outstanding; OR
(ii) 75% of the Net Amount of Borrower's accounts, which Silicon in
its ** discretion deems eligible for borrowing,
provided, however, that the minimum amount of a Loan

-10-
23
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without limiting the fact that the determination of which accounts are eligible
for borrowing is a matter of Silicon's discretion, the
following will not be deemed eligible for borrowing:
accounts outstanding for more than 90 days from the
invoice date, accounts subject to any contingencies,
accounts owing from an account debtor outside the
United States (the "Foreign Accounts") (unless
pre-approved by Silicon in its discretion, or backed
by a letter of credit satisfactory to Silicon, or FCIA
insured satisfactory to Silicon)*, accounts owing from
one account debtor to the extent they exceed 25% of
the total eligible accounts outstanding, accounts
owing from an affiliate of Borrower, and accounts
owing from an account debtor to whom Borrower is or
may be liable for goods purchased from such account
debtor or otherwise. In addition, if more than 50% of
the accounts owing from an account debtor are
outstanding more than 90 days from the invoice date or
are otherwise not eligible accounts, then all accounts
owing from that account debtor will be deemed
ineligible for borrowing.
* (PROVIDED THAT PRIOR TO OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A CONDITION, FOREIGN
ACCOUNTS BILLED IN THE UNITED STATES SHALL NOT BE
DEEMED INELIGIBLE BY VIRTUE OF THE LOCATION OF THE
ACCOUNT DEBTORS RELATING THERETO OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED
STATES (REFERRED TO AS THE "EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS
ELIGIBILITY"), WITH THE UNDERSTANDING AND AGREEMENT
THAT AFTER THE OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A
CONDITION, THE EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS ELIGIBILITY
SHALL IMMEDIATELY CEASE TO BE EFFECTIVE)
LETTER OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT Silicon, in its reasonable discretion, will from time
to time during the term of this Agreement issue
letters of credit for the account of the Borrower
("Letters of Credit"), in an aggregate amount at any
one time outstanding * not to exceed $1,000,000, upon
the request of the Borrower, provided that, on the
date the Letters of Credit are to be issued, Borrower
has available to it Loans in an amount equal to or
greater than the face amount of the Letters of Credit
to be issued. Prior to the issuance of any Letters of
Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Silicon
Applications for Letters of Credit and such other
documentation as Silicon shall specify (the "Letter of
Credit Documentation"). Fees for the Letters of Credit
shall be as provided in the Letter of Credit
Documentation.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS, INC. AND
EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
The Credit Limit set forth above and the Loans available under this Agreement at
any time shall be reduced by the face amount of
Letters of Credit from time to time outstanding.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
-11-
24
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT SUBLIMIT Up to $1,000,000 of the Credit Limit * may be utilized for
spot and future foreign exchange contracts (the
"Exchange Contracts"). The Credit Limit available at
any time shall be reduced by the following amounts
(the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") on each day (the
"Determination Date"): (i) on all outstanding Exchange
Contracts on which delivery is to be effected or
settlement allowed more than two business days from
the Determination Date, 20% of the gross amount of the
Exchange Contracts; plus (ii) on all outstanding
Exchange Contracts on which delivery is to be effected
or settlement allowed within two business days after
the Determination Date, 100% of the gross amount of
the Exchange Contracts. In lieu of the Foreign
Exchange Reserve for 100% of the gross amount of any
Exchange Contract, the Borrower may request that
Silicon debit the Borrower's bank account with Silicon
for such amount, provided Borrower has immediately
available funds in such amount in its bank account.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS, INC. AND
EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
Borrower may provide, by written notification to Silicon, instructions to
terminate any of the Exchange Contracts, except that
Borrower may not terminate an Exchange Contract within
two business days of the date delivery is to be
effected or settlement allowed. Further, Silicon may,
in its discretion, terminate the Exchange Contracts at
any time (a) that an Event of Default occurs or (b)
that there is not sufficient availability under the
Credit Limit and Borrower does not have available
funds in its bank account to satisfy the Foreign
Exchange Reserve. If either Silicon or Borrower
terminates the Exchange Contracts, and without
limitation of the FX Indemnity Provisions (as referred
to below), Borrower agrees to reimburse Silicon for
any and all fees, costs and expenses relating thereto
or arising in connection therewith.
Borrower shall not permit the total gross amount of all Exchange Contracts on
which delivery is to be effected and settlement
allowed in any two business day period to be more than
$500,000, nor shall Borrower permit the total gross
amount of all Exchange Contracts to which Borrower is
a party, outstanding at any one time, to exceed
$1,000,000.
The Borrower shall execute all standard form applications and agreements of
Silicon in connection with the Exchange Contracts, and
without limiting any of the terms of such applications
and agreements, the Borrower will pay all standard
fees and charges of Silicon in connection with the
Exchange Contracts.
Without limiting any of the other terms of this Loan Agreement or any such
standard form applications and agreements of Silicon,
Borrower agrees to indemnify Silicon and hold it
harmless, from and against any and all claims, debts,
liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees of counsel of Silicon's choice), of every nature
and description, which it
-12-
25
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
may sustain or incur, based upon, arising out of, or
in any way relating to any of the Exchange Contracts
or any transactions relating thereto or contemplated
thereby (collectively referred to as the "FX Indemnity
Provisions").
The Exchange Contracts shall have maturity dates no later than the
Maturity Date.
CORPORATE CREDIT
CARD SUBLIMIT Up to $10,000 of the Credit Limit * may be utilized for advances
under corporate credit cards to be issued by Silicon
for Borrower, provided that at the time of the
issuance of any such credit cards Borrower has
available to it Loans in an amount equal to or greater
than $10,000. Further, after the issuance of any such
credit cards, the Credit Limit shall be permanently
reduced by $10,000 while any of such credit cards
remain available for use or there remain any
outstanding Obligations thereunder.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)"
2. MODIFICATION TO REPORTING. Paragraph 2 of the section of the
Schedule to the Loan Agreement entitled "Other Covenants (Section 4.1)" is
hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
"2. MONTHLY BORROWING BASE CERTIFICATE AND LISTING. Within 20 days
after the end of each month, Borrower shall provide Silicon with a
Borrowing Base Certificate in such form as Silicon shall specify,
and an aged listing of Borrower's accounts receivable."
3. GENERAL PROVISIONS. This Amendment, the Loan Agreement, any prior
written amendments to the Loan Agreement signed by Silicon and the Borrower, and
the other written documents and agreements between Silicon and the Borrower set
forth in full all of the representations and agreements of the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior discussions,
representations, agreements and understandings between the parties with respect

CREDIT LIMIT
(Section 1.1): An amount not to exceed * the lesser of:
(i) $5,000,000 at any one time outstanding; OR
(ii) 75% of the Net Amount of Borrower's accounts, which Silicon in its
** discretion deems eligible for borrowing,
provided, however, that the minimum amount

** REASONABLE
"Net Amount" of an account means the gross amount of the account, minus
all applicable sales, use, excise and other
similar taxes and minus all discounts,
credits and allowances of any nature granted
or claimed.
Without limiting the fact that the determination of which accounts are
eligible for borrowing is a matter of
Silicon's discretion, the following will not
be deemed eligible for borrowing: accounts
outstanding for more than 90 days from the
invoice date, accounts subject to any
contingencies, accounts owing from an
account debtor outside the United States
(the "Foreign Accounts") (unless
pre-approved by Silicon in its discretion,
or backed by a letter of credit satisfactory

account debtor to the extent they exceed 25%
of the total eligible accounts outstanding,
accounts owing from an affiliate of
Borrower, and accounts owing from an account
debtor to whom Borrower is or may be liable
for goods purchased from such account debtor
or otherwise. In addition, if more than 50%
of the accounts owing from an account debtor
are outstanding more than 90 days from the
invoice date or are otherwise not eligible
accounts, then all accounts owing from that
account debtor will be deemed ineligible for
borrowing.
* (PROVIDED THAT PRIOR TO OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A CONDITION,
FOREIGN ACCOUNTS BILLED IN THE UNITED STATES
SHALL NOT BE DEEMED INELIGIBLE BY VIRTUE OF
THE LOCATION OF THE ACCOUNT DEBTORS RELATING
THERETO OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES
(REFERRED TO AS THE "EXPANDED FOREIGN
ACCOUNTS ELIGIBILITY"), WITH THE
UNDERSTANDING AND AGREEMENT THAT AFTER THE
OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION 2.2A CONDITION,
THE EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS ELIGIBILITY
SHALL IMMEDIATELY CEASE TO BE EFFECTIVE)
LETTER OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT Silicon, in its reasonable discretion, will from time
to time during the term of this Agreement
issue letters of credit for the account of
the Borrower ("Letters of Credit"), in an
aggregate amount at any one time outstanding
* not to exceed $1,000,000, upon the request
of the Borrower, provided that, on the date
the Letters of Credit are to be issued,
Borrower has available to it Loans in an
amount equal to or greater than the face
amount of the Letters of Credit to be
issued. Prior to the issuance of any Letters
of Credit, Borrower shall execute and
deliver to Silicon Applications for Letters
of Credit and such other documentation as
Silicon shall specify (the "Letter of Credit
Documentation"). Fees for the Letters of
Credit shall be as provided in the Letter of
Credit Documentation.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,

utilized for spot and future foreign
exchange contracts (the "Exchange

any time shall be reduced by the following
amounts (the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") on
each day (the "Determination Date"): (i) on
all outstanding Exchange Contracts on which
delivery is to be effected or settlement
allowed more than two business days from the
Determination Date, 20% of the gross amount
of the Exchange Contracts; plus (ii) on all
outstanding Exchange Contracts on which
delivery is to be effected or settlement
allowed
-24-
37
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
within two business days after the
Determination Date, 100% of the gross amount
of the Exchange Contracts. In lieu of the
Foreign Exchange Reserve for 100% of the
gross amount of any Exchange Contract, the
Borrower may request that Silicon debit the
Borrower's bank account with Silicon for
such amount, provided Borrower has
immediately available funds in such amount
in its bank account.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
Borrower may provide, by written notification to Silicon, instructions
to terminate any of the Exchange Contracts,
except that Borrower may not terminate an
Exchange Contract within two business days
of the date delivery is to be effected or
settlement allowed. Further, Silicon may, in
its discretion, terminate the Exchange
Contracts at any time (a) that an Event of
Default occurs or (b) that there is not
sufficient availability under the Credit
Limit and Borrower does not have available
funds in its bank account to satisfy the
Foreign Exchange Reserve. If either Silicon
or Borrower terminates the Exchange
Contracts, and without limitation of the FX
Indemnity Provisions (as referred to below),
Borrower agrees to reimburse Silicon for any
and all fees, costs and expenses relating
thereto or arising in connection therewith.
Borrower shall not permit the total gross amount of all Exchange
Contracts on which delivery is to be
effected and settlement allowed in any two
business day period to be more than
$500,000, nor shall Borrower permit the
total gross amount of all Exchange Contracts
to which Borrower is a party, outstanding at
any one time, to exceed $1,000,000.
The Borrower shall execute all standard form applications and agreements
of Silicon in connection with the Exchange
Contracts, and without limiting any of the
terms of such applications and agreements,
the Borrower will pay all standard fees and
charges of Silicon in connection with the
Exchange Contracts.
Without limiting any of the other terms of this Loan Agreement or any
such standard form applications and
agreements of Silicon, Borrower agrees to
indemnify Silicon and hold it harmless, from
and against any and all claims, debts,
liabilities, demands, obligations, actions,
costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees of counsel of
Silicon's choice), of every nature and
description, which it may sustain or incur,
based upon, arising out of, or in any way
relating to any of the Exchange Contracts or
any transactions relating thereto or
contemplated thereby (collectively referred
to as the "FX Indemnity Provisions").
The Exchange Contracts shall have maturity dates no later than the
Maturity Date.
CORPORATE CREDIT
CARD SUBLIMIT Up to $10,000 of the Credit Limit * may be utilized for
advances under corporate credit cards to be
issued by Silicon for Borrower, provided
that at the time of the issuance of any such
credit cards Borrower
-25-
38
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
has available to it Loans in an amount equal
to or greater than $10,000. Further, after
the issuance of any such credit cards, the
Credit Limit shall be permanently reduced by
$10,000 while any of such credit cards
remain available for use or there remain any
outstanding Obligations thereunder.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)"
INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2): A rate equal to the "Prime Rate" in effect from
time to time, plus .50% per annum. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year for the actual number of days
elapsed. "Prime Rate" means the rate
announced from time to time by Silicon as
its "prime rate;" it is a base rate upon
which other rates charged by Silicon are
based, and it is not necessarily the best
rate available at Silicon. The interest rate
applicable to the Obligations shall change
on each date there is a change in the Prime
Rate.

perfecting of the security interest of
Silicon in the Collateral of Borrower, or in

DATED: JANUARY 18, 1996
THIS AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT is entered into between SILICON VALLEY
BANK ("Silicon") and the borrowers named above (jointly and severally referred
to as the "Borrower").
The Parties hereby agree to amend the Loan and Security Agreement between
them, dated March 31, 1994, as amended by that Amendment to Loan Agreement
dated April 25, 1994, as amended by that Amendment to Loan Agreement dated July
1, 1994, as amended by that Amendment to Loan Agreement dated June 26, 1995, as
amended by that Amendment to Loan Agreement dated July 24, 1995, and as amended
by that Amendment to Loan Agreement dated October 5, 1995 (as so amended and as
otherwise amended or modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), as
follows, effective as of December 27, 1995.
1. REVISED SCHEDULE. The Schedule to Loan Agreement is hereby deleted and
replaced with the Schedule to Loan Agreement as attached hereto.
2. REVISED SECTION 2.2A. Section 2.2A of the Loan Agreement is hereby
amended in its entirety to read as follows:
"2.2A Grant of Security Interest in Collateral. If (I) an Event of
Default occurs hereunder and any Obligations are outstanding (the
"Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Default") or (II) Silicon makes any
Loans to Borrower (the "Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Loans"),
then the grant of the security interest set forth in this Section
2.2A shall at such time become immediately effective, without any
further action required by Borrower or Silicon, provided that
Borrower shall nonetheless be required to take such additional
actions and execute such additional documentation as Silicon
determines are necessary or desirable in its discretion to implement
such grant of a security interest and to permit Silicon to perfect
such security interest (the foregoing events that trigger the
effectiveness of the grant of the security interest in this Section
2.2A shall be jointly and severally referred to as the "Section 2.2A
Condition"), provided, further, that if, and only if, the Additional
Financial Conditions (as defined below) are satisfied, as determined
by Silicon, then the Section 2.2A Condition shall only consist of the
Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Default and the Section 2.2A
Condition Regarding Loans shall no longer be considered to be an
event that constitutes a Section 2.2A Condition. Borrower and
Silicon agree that prior to the occurrence of the Section 2.2
Condition, the provisions of this
-31-
44
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 2.2A shall be deemed not to be in effect. The term
"Additional Financial Conditions" as used herein shall mean that in
each of two successive fiscal quarters after December 31, 1995 the
Parent, on a consolidated basis, shall have attained profits (after
taxes) of at least $1,000,000 per quarter and that Parent, on a
consolidated basis, shall have maintained a ratio of "Quick Assets"
to current liabilities of not less than 1.50 to 1 (the financial
terms referenced in this definition shall be defined as such terms
are defined and used in the section of the Schedule to the Loan
Agreement entitled "Financial Covenants (Section 4.1)").
Upon the occurrence of the Section 2.2A Condition, the following
shall become effective:
The Borrower grants Silicon a continuing security interest in all of
the Borrower's interest in the types of property described below,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and wherever located
(collectively, the "Collateral") as security for all Obligations:
(a) All accounts, contract rights, chattel paper, letters of credit,
documents, securities, money, and instruments, and all other
obligations now or in the future owing to the Borrower; (b) All
inventory, goods, merchandise, materials, raw materials, work in
process, finished goods, farm products, advertising, packaging and
shipping materials, supplies, and all other tangible personal
property which is held for sale or lease or furnished under contracts
of service or consumed in the Borrower's business, and all warehouse
receipts and other documents; and (c) All equipment, including
without limitation all machinery, fixtures, trade fixtures, vehicles,
furnishings, furniture, materials, tools, machine tools, office
equipment, computers and peripheral devices, appliances, apparatus,
parts, dies, and jigs; (d) All general intangibles including, but not
limited to, deposit accounts, goodwill, names, trade names,
trademarks and the goodwill of the business symbolized thereby, trade
secrets, drawings, blueprints, customer lists, patents, patent
applications, copyrights, security deposits, loan commitment fees,
federal, state and local tax refunds and claims, all rights in all
litigation presently or hereafter pending for any cause or claim
(whether in contract, tort or otherwise), and all judgments now or
hereafter arising therefrom, all claims of Borrower against Silicon,
all rights to purchase or sell real or personal property, all rights
as a licensor or licensee of any kind, all royalties, licenses,
processes, telephone numbers, proprietary information, purchase
orders, and all insurance policies and claims (including without
limitation credit, liability, property and other insurance), and all
other rights, privileges and franchises of every kind; (e) All books
and records, whether stored on computers or otherwise maintained; and
(f) All substitutions, additions and accessions to any of the
foregoing, and all products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of the
foregoing, and all guaranties of and security for the foregoing; and
all books and records relating to any of the foregoing. Silicon's
security interest in any present or future technology (including
patents, trade secrets, and other technology) shall be subject to any
licenses or rights now or in the future granted by the Borrower to
any third parties in the ordinary course of Borrower's business;
provided that if the Borrower proposes to sell, license or grant any
other rights with respect to any technology in a transaction that, in
substance, conveys a major part of the economic value of that
technology, Silicon shall first be requested to release its security
interest in the same, and Silicon may withhold such release in its
reasonable discretion;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if a Section 2.2A Condition consisting only
of a Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Loans has occurred and the
grant of the security interest as referred to herein is then
effective, and if the Borrower subsequently satisfies the Additional
Financial Conditions and no Section 2.2A Condition consisting of a
Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Default has occurred, then Silicon
agrees that the grant of the security interest as set forth herein
shall no longer be considered to be effective, subject, however, to
the reinstatement of the security interest upon the occurrence of a
Section 2.2A Condition consisting of a Section 2.2A Condition
Regarding Default as otherwise set forth above. It is understood
and agreed that the satisfaction of the Additional Financial
Conditions shall not diminish or affect the rights of Silicon
hereunder upon the occurrence of a Section 2.2A Condition consisting
of a Section 2.2A Condition Regarding Default."
3. NOTICE OF INTENT TO BORROW; ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION AND ACTIONS.
Borrower hereby agrees that it shall provide to Silicon written notice of its
intent to request a Loan at least two weeks prior to the proposed date of
borrowing. At the time of giving such notice, Borrower agrees to execute such
additional documentation and take such additional actions as Silicon determines
in its discretion are necessary or desirable in connection with the grant of
the security interest as set forth in Section 2.2A hereof. In connection with
the foregoing, Borrower further agrees to cause all guarantors of the
Obligations to take such actions and execute such documentation as Silicon
determines in its discretion are necessary or desirable relating to such
guaranties and any grant of a security interest by such guarantor parties in
favor of Silicon, including, without limitation, with respect to Emulex Caribe,
Inc., the execution and delivery of the Puerto Rico Documentation.
4. FEE. Borrower shall pay to Silicon a fee in the amount of $2,500 in
connection with this Amendment, which shall be in addition to all interest and
all other amounts payable hereunder and which shall not be refundable.

(Section 1.1): An amount not to exceed * the lesser of:
(i) $5,000,000 at any one time outstanding; OR

debtor or otherwise. In addition, if more than 50%
of the accounts owing from an account debtor are

NOT BE DEEMED INELIGIBLE BY VIRTUE OF THE LOCATION OF
THE ACCOUNT DEBTORS RELATING THERETO OUTSIDE OF THE
UNITED STATES (REFERRED TO AS THE "EXPANDED FOREIGN
ACCOUNTS ELIGIBILITY"), WITH THE UNDERSTANDING AND
AGREEMENT THAT AFTER THE OCCURRENCE OF THE SECTION
2.2A CONDITION, THE EXPANDED FOREIGN ACCOUNTS
ELIGIBILITY SHALL IMMEDIATELY CEASE TO BE EFFECTIVE)

time to time during the term of this Agreement issue
letters of credit for the account of the Borrower
("Letters of Credit"), in an aggregate amount at any
one time outstanding * not to exceed $1,000,000, upon
the request of the Borrower, provided that, on the
date the Letters of Credit are to be issued, Borrower
has available to it Loans in an amount equal to or
greater than the face amount of the Letters of Credit
to be issued. Prior to the issuance of any Letters
of Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to

other documentation as Silicon shall specify (the
"Letter of Credit Documentation"). Fees for the
Letters of Credit shall be as provided in the Letter
of Credit Documentation.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,

(the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") on each day (the
"Determination Date"): (i) on all outstanding
Exchange Contracts on which delivery is to be
effected or settlement allowed more than two business
days from the Determination Date, 20% of the gross

outstanding Exchange Contracts on which delivery is
to be effected or settlement allowed within two
business days after the Determination Date, 100% of

SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contracts. In lieu of the Foreign Exchange Reserve
for 100% of the gross amount of any Exchange
Contract, the Borrower may request that Silicon
debit the Borrower's bank account with Silicon for
such amount, provided Borrower has immediately
available funds in such amount in its bank account.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)
Borrower may provide, by written notification to Silicon, instructions to
terminate any of the Exchange Contracts, except that
Borrower may not terminate an Exchange Contract
within two business days of the date delivery is to
be effected or settlement allowed. Further, Silicon
may, in its discretion, terminate the Exchange
Contracts at any time (a) that an Event of Default
occurs or (b) that there is not sufficient
availability under the Credit Limit and Borrower does
not have available funds in its bank account to
satisfy the Foreign Exchange Reserve. If either
Silicon or Borrower terminates the Exchange
Contracts, and without limitation of the FX Indemnity
Provisions (as referred to below), Borrower agrees to
reimburse Silicon for any and all fees, costs and
expenses relating thereto or arising in connection
therewith.
Borrower shall not permit the total gross amount of all Exchange Contracts
on which delivery is to be effected and settlement
allowed in any two business day period to be more
than $500,000, nor shall Borrower permit the total
gross amount of all Exchange Contracts to which
Borrower is a party, outstanding at any one time, to
exceed $1,000,000.
The Borrower shall execute all standard form applications and agreements
of Silicon in connection with the Exchange Contracts,
and without limiting any of the terms of such
applications and agreements, the Borrower will pay
all standard fees and charges of Silicon in
connection with the Exchange Contracts.
Without limiting any of the other terms of this Loan Agreement or any such
standard form applications and agreements of Silicon,
Borrower agrees to indemnify Silicon and hold it
harmless, from and against any and all claims, debts,
liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees of counsel of Silicon's choice), of every nature
and description, which it may sustain or incur, based
upon, arising out of, or in any way relating to any
of the Exchange Contracts or any transactions
relating thereto or contemplated thereby
(collectively referred to as the "FX Indemnity
Provisions").
The Exchange Contracts shall have maturity dates no later than the
Maturity Date.
CORPORATE CREDIT
CARD SUBLIMIT Up to $10,000 of the Credit Limit * may be utilized for advances
under corporate credit cards to be issued by Silicon
for Borrower, provided that at the time of the
issuance of any such credit cards Borrower has
available to it Loans in an amount equal to or
greater than $10,000. Further, after the issuance
-37-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of any such credit cards, the Credit Limit shall be
permanently reduced by $10,000 while any of such
credit cards remain available for use or there
remain any outstanding Obligations thereunder.
* (ON AN AGGREGATE AND CONSOLIDATED BASIS FOR EMULEX, INTERCONNECTIONS,
INC. AND EMULEX EUROPE LIMITED)"
INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2): A rate equal to the "Prime Rate" in effect from
time to time, plus 1.00% per annum. Interest shall
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed. "Prime Rate" means
the rate announced from time to time by Silicon as
its "prime rate;" it is a base rate upon which other
rates charged by Silicon are based, and it is not
necessarily the best rate available at Silicon. The
interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall
change on each date there is a change in the Prime
Rate.
