THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITY AGREEMENT

This THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITY AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as of November 3, 2000, by and between CUTTER & BUCK INC., a Washington corporation ("Grantor"), and WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK doing business as WESTERN BANK ("Western Bank"), as administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Administrative Agent") for the following parties (the "Creditor Parties"): Western Bank, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. ("BofA"), and the several banks and other financial institutions from time to time parties to the Loan Agreement (the "Lenders"); Western Bank, as issuer of letters of credit (the "Letter of Credit Issuer" and the "BV Letter of Credit Issuer") and as issuer of credit cards (the "Credit Card Issuer"); and BofA as a direct lender to Cutter & Buck, BV (the "BV Lender"). This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Second Amended and Restated Security Agreement dated as of July 28, 2000 (the "Prior Security Agreement"), as well as the prior Amended and Restated Security Agreement dated as of April 28, 1999 among Grantor, Western Bank, BofA (then known as Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association doing business as Seafirst Bank), the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer and the Administrative Agent (the "Original Security Agreement").

RECITALS

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Grantor, the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer and the Administrative Agent are entering into the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of November 3, 2000 (the "Loan Agreement"), which amends and restates in its entirety the Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of July 28, 2000 (the "Prior Loan Agreement"), as well as the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of April 28, 1999 among the Grantor, Western Bank, BofA (then known as Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association doing business as Seafirst Bank), the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer and the Administrative Agent (the "Original Loan Agreement"). The Original Loan Agreement was secured by the Original Security Agreement.

It is a condition precedent to the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement that the Prior Security Agreement and Original Security Agreement be amended and restated as provided in this Agreement.

Accordingly, Grantor and the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer, the BV Letter of Credit Issuer and the BV Lender (in such capacity, the "Secured Party"), hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Definitions. As used in this Agreement:

"Collateral" means all items of the types described in Exhibit A to this Agreement.

"Guaranteed Obligations" means any and all present and future indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of Grantor to the BV Letter of Credit Issuer and the BV Lender pursuant to the Guarantee provisions of the Loan Agreement, and all renewals and extensions thereof, and includes all such indebtedness, liabilities and obligations regardless of whether or not they are or were (i) direct or indirect, (ii) matured or not matured or (iii) absolute or contingent.

"Obligations" means the Guaranteed Obligations and any and all present and future indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of Grantor to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Credit Card Issuer under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all renewals and extensions thereof, and includes all such indebtedness, liabilities and obligations

regardless of whether or not they are or were (i) direct or indirect, (ii) matured or not matured or (iii) absolute or contingent.

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2. Security for Obligations. As collateral security for the prompt and unconditional payment and performance of the Obligations, Grantor hereby grants to the Secured Party a security interest in all of Grantor's right, title and interest in and to the Collateral.

3. Representations and Warranties. Grantor represents and warrants to the Secured Party as follows:

(a) No violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate any law or agreement governing Grantor or to which Grantor is a party, and its articles of incorporation and bylaws do not prohibit any term or condition of this Agreement.

(b) Enforceability of Collateral. To the extent the Collateral consists of accounts, chattel paper, or general intangibles, the Collateral is enforceable in accordance with its terms, is genuine, and complies with applicable laws concerning form, content and manner of preparation and execution, and all Persons appearing to be obligated on the Collateral have authority and capacity to contract and are in fact obligated as they appear to be on the Collateral. At the time any account becomes subject to a security interest in favor of the Secured Party, the account will be a good and valid account representing an undisputed, bona fide indebtedness incurred by the account debtor, for merchandise held subject to delivery instructions or theretofore shipped or delivered pursuant to a contract of sale, or for services theretofore performed by Grantor with or for the account debtor, or for advances made to employees; and there shall be no setoffs or counterclaims against any such account.

(c) Title. Grantor represents and warrants to the Secured Party that it holds good and marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of all Liens, except for the Lien of this Agreement and Permitted Liens. No financing statement covering any of the Collateral is on file in any public office other than those which reflect the Liens created by this Agreement and Permitted Liens or to which the Secured Party has specifically consented. Grantor will defend the Secured Party's rights in the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other persons.

(d) Hazardous Substances. Grantor represents and warrants that the Collateral never has been, and never will be so long as this Agreement remains a Lien on the Collateral, used for the generation, manufacture, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any hazardous waste or substance, as those terms are defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601, et seq. ("CERCLA"), the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, Pub. L. No. 99-499 ("▇▇▇▇"), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. Section 1801, et seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901, et seq., or other applicable state or Federal laws, rules, or regulations adopted pursuant to any of the foregoing. The terms "hazardous waste" and "hazardous substance" shall also include, without limitation, petroleum and petroleum by-products or any fraction thereof and asbestos. The representations and warranties contained herein are based on Grantor's due diligence in investigating the Collateral for hazardous wastes and substances. Grantor hereby (i) releases and waives any future claims against the Secured Party for indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws, and (ii) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Secured Party against any and all claims and losses resulting from a breach of this provision of this Agreement. This obligation to indemnify shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the satisfaction of this Agreement.

(e) Trade Names. Grantor has not, during the past five years, operated under any trade name different from its true legal name.

(f) Chief Executive Office. The chief executive office of Grantor is located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.

(g) Location of Collateral. All the Collateral consisting of tangible personal property (other than display fixtures and samples held by sales representatives) is located in the states of Washington, Oregon, New York and Texas.

4. Grantor's Covenants.

(a) Perfection of Security Interest. Grantor will execute such financing statements and take whatever other actions are requested by the Secured Party to perfect and continue the Secured Party's security interest in the Collateral. Upon request of the Secured Party, Grantor will deliver to the Secured Party any and all of the documents evidencing or constituting the Collateral, and Grantor will note the Secured Party's interest upon any and all chattel paper if not delivered to the Secured Party for possession by the Secured Party. Grantor hereby appoints the Secured Party as its irrevocable attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any documents necessary to perfect or to continue the security interest granted in this Agreement. The Secured Party may at any time, and without further authorization from Grantor, file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of any financing statement or of this Agreement for use as a financing statement. Grantor will reimburse the Secured Party for all expenses for the perfection and the continuation of the perfection of the Secured Party's security interest in the Collateral. Grantor promptly will notify the Secured Party before any change in Grantor's name including any change to the assumed business names of Grantor. This Agreement will continue in effect even though all or any part of the Obligations are paid in full and even though for a period of time Grantor may not be indebted to the Secured Party.

(b) Location of the Collateral. Grantor, upon request of the Secured Party, will deliver to the Secured Party in form satisfactory to the Secured Party a schedule of real properties and Collateral locations relating to Grantor's operations, including without limitation the following: (i) all real property owned or being purchased by Grantor; (ii) all real property being rented or leased by Grantor; (iii) all storage facilities owned, rented, leased, or being used by Grantor; and (iv) all other properties where Collateral is or may be located. Except in the ordinary course of its business, Grantor will not remove the Collateral from its existing locations without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

(c) Removal of Collateral. Grantor will keep the Collateral (other than inventory-in-transit, inventory in the possession of contractors for embroidery work and Collateral consisting of intangible property) at Grantor's address shown above, at Grantor's warehouse, at Inner City Warehouse, or at such other locations as are acceptable to the Secured Party. Except in the ordinary course of its business, including the sales of inventory, Grantor will not remove the Collateral from its existing locations without the prior written consent of the Secured Party. To the extent that the Collateral consists of vehicles, or other titled property, Grantor will not take or permit any action which would require application for certificates of title for the vehicles outside the State of Washington, without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

(d) Transactions Involving Collateral. Except for inventory sold or accounts collected in the ordinary course of Grantor's business, Grantor will not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Collateral, except (i) transfers, sales or dispositions of Collateral that is obsolete or worn out property disposed of in the ordinary course of business and (ii) other asset dispositions provided that such other asset dispositions do not exceed $200,000.00 in the aggregate for any fiscal year. So long as no Event of Default has occurred, Grantor may sell inventory, but only in

the ordinary course of its business and only to buyers who qualify as a buyer in the ordinary course of business. A sale in the ordinary course of Grantor's business does not include a transfer in partial or total satisfaction of a debt or any bulk sale. Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, pledge, mortgage, encumber or otherwise permit the Collateral to be subject to any Lien, other than the Liens provided for in this Agreement and Permitted Liens. This includes Liens even if junior in right to the Liens granted under this Agreement. Unless waived by the Secured Party, all proceeds from any disposition of the Collateral (for whatever reason) shall be held in trust for the Secured Party and shall not be commingled with any other funds; provided, however, this requirement shall not constitute consent by the Secured Party to any sale or other disposition. Upon receipt Grantor will immediately deliver any such proceeds to the Secured Party.

(e) Collateral Schedules and Locations. As often as the Secured Party shall require, and insofar as the Collateral consists of accounts and general intangibles, Grantor will deliver to the Secured Party schedules of such Collateral, containing such information as the Secured Party may require, including without limitation names and addresses of account debtors and agings of accounts and general intangibles. Insofar as the Collateral consists of inventory, Grantor will deliver to the Secured Party, as often as the Secured Party shall require, such lists, descriptions, and designations of such Collateral as the Secured Party may require to identify the nature, extent, and location of such Collateral.

(f) Maintenance and Inspection of Collateral. Grantor will maintain all tangible Collateral in good condition and repair. Grantor will not commit or permit damage to or destruction of the Collateral or any part of the Collateral. The Secured Party and its designated representatives and agents shall have the right at all reasonable times to examine, inspect, and audit the Collateral wherever located. Grantor will immediately notify the Secured Party of all cases involving the return, rejection, repossession, loss or damage of or to any Collateral outside the ordinary course of business; of any request for credit or adjustment or of any other dispute arising with respect to the Collateral outside the ordinary course of business; and generally of all material happenings and events affecting the Collateral or the value or the amount of the Collateral outside the ordinary course of business.

(g) Taxes, Assessments and Liens. Grantor will pay when due all taxes, assessments and liens upon the Collateral, its use or operation, upon this Agreement or upon any of the other Loan Documents. Grantor may withhold any such payment or may elect to contest any Lien if Grantor is in good faith conducting an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and so long as the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized in the Secured Party's sole opinion. If the Collateral is subjected to a Lien which is not discharged within fifteen (15) days, Grantor will deposit with the Secured Party cash, a sufficient corporate surety bond or other security satisfactory to the Secured Party in an amount adequate to provide for the discharge of the lien plus any interest, costs, attorneys' fees or other charges that could accrue as a result of foreclosure or sale of the Collateral. In any contest Grantor will defend itself and the Secured Party and will satisfy any final adverse judgment before enforcement against the Collateral. Grantor will name the Secured Party as an additional obligee under any surety bond furnished in the contest proceedings.

(h) Compliance With Governmental Requirements. Grantor will comply promptly with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all governmental authorities, now or hereafter in effect, applicable to the ownership, production, disposition, or use of the Collateral. Grantor may contest in good faith any such law, ordinance or regulation and withhold compliance during any proceeding. including appropriate appeals, so long as the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral, in the Secured Party's opinion, is not jeopardized.

(i) Maintenance of Casualty Insurance. Grantor will procure and maintain all risks insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability coverage together with such other insurance as the Secured Party may require with respect to the Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages and basis reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party and issued by a company or companies reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party. Grantor, upon request of the Secured Party, will deliver to the Secured Party from time to time the policies or certificates of insurance in form satisfactory to the Secured Party, including stipulations that coverages will not be canceled or diminished without at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to the Secured Party and not including any disclaimer of the insurer's liability for failure to give such a notice. Each insurance policy also shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of the Secured Party will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor or any other person. In connection with all policies covering assets in which the Secured Party holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide the Secured Party with such loss payable or other endorsements as the Secured Party may require. If Grantor at any time falls to obtain or maintain any insurance as required under this Agreement, the Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain such insurance as the Secured Party deems appropriate, including if it so chooses "single interest insurance," which will cover only the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral.

(j) Application of Insurance Proceeds. Grantor will promptly notify the Secured Party of any loss or damage to the Collateral. The Secured Party may make proof of loss if Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. All proceeds of any insurance on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds thereon, shall be held by the Secured Party as part of the Collateral. If the Secured Party consents to repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Collateral, the Secured Party shall, upon satisfactory proof of expenditure, pay or reimburse Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration. If the Secured Party does not consent to repair or replacement of the Collateral, the Secured Party shall retain a sufficient amount of the proceeds to pay all of the Obligations, and shall pay the balance to Grantor. Any proceeds which have not been disbursed within six (6) months after their receipt and which Grantor has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Collateral shall be used to prepay the Obligations.

(k) Insurance Reports. Grantor, upon request of the Secured Party, will furnish to the Secured Party reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as the Secured Party may reasonably request including the following: (i) the name of the insurer; (ii) the risks insured; (iii) the amount of the policy; (iv) the property insured; (v) the then current value on the basis of which insurance has been obtained and the manner of determining that value; and (vi) the expiration date of the policy.

(l) Changes to Chief Executive Office; Trade Names. Without giving the Secured Party at least thirty (30) days prior written notice, Grantor will not change the location of its chief executive office and will not use any trade name different that its legal name.

5. Expenditures by the Secured Party. If not discharged or paid when due, the Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to) discharge or pay any amounts required to be discharged or paid by Grantor under this Agreement, including without limitation all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances, and other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral. The Secured Party also may (but shall not be obligated to) pay all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by the Secured Party for such purposes will then bear interest at the Floating Rate from the date incurred or paid by the Secured Party to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such expenses shall become a part of the Obligations and, at the Secured Party's option, will (a) be payable on demand, (b) be added to the balance of either of the Notes and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (i) the term of any applicable insurance policy or (ii) the remaining term of the Notes, or (c) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the maturity of such Note or Notes. This Agreement also

will secure payment of these amounts. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which the Secured Party may be entitled.

6. Rights and Remedies of the Secured Party. If an Event of Default occurs under this Agreement, at any time thereafter, the Secured Party shall have, subject to the provisions of Section 8, all the rights of a secured party under the Washington Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without limitation, but subject to the provisions of Section 8, the Secured Party may exercise any one or more of the following rights and remedies:

(a) Accelerate Obligations. The Secured Party may declare the entire Obligations, including any prepayment penalty which Grantor would be required to pay, immediately due and payable, without notice.

(b) Assemble Collateral. The Secured Party may require Grantor to deliver to the Secured Party all or any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and other documents relating to the Collateral. The Secured Party may require Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party. The Secured Party also shall have full power to enter upon the property of Grantor to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time of repossession, Grantor agrees the Secured Party may take such other goods, provided that the Secured Party makes reasonable efforts to return them to Grantor after repossession.

(c) Sell the Collateral. The Secured Party shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer, or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in its own name or that of Grantor. The Secured Party may sell the Collateral at public auction or private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Secured Party will give Grantor reasonable notice of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. All expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the Floating Rate from date of expenditure until repaid.

(d) Appoint Receiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies regarding the appointment of a receiver: (i) the Secured Party may have a receiver appointed as a matter of right, (ii) the receiver may be an employee of the Secured Party and may serve without bond, and (iii) all fees of the receiver and his or her attorney shall become part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the Floating Rate from the date of expenditure until repaid.

(e) Collect Revenues, Apply Accounts. The Secured Party, either itself or through a receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral. The Secured Party may at any time in its discretion transfer any Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee and receive the payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as security for the Obligations or apply it to payment of the Obligations in such order of preference as the Secured Party may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, the Secured Party may demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, ▇▇▇ for, foreclose, or realize on the Collateral as the Secured Party may determine, whether or not such Collateral is then due. For these purposes, the Secured Party may, on behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail and payments are to be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of any Collateral. To facilitate collection, the Secured

Party may notify account debtors and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to the Secured Party.

(f) Obtain Deficiency. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Secured Party chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral, the Secured Party may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining on the Obligations after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement. Grantor shall be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction described in this paragraph is a sale of accounts or chattel paper.

(g) Other Rights and Remedies. The Secured Party shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as may be amended from time to time. In addition, the Secured Party shall have and may exercise any or all other rights and remedies it may have available at law, in equity, or otherwise.

7. Grantor's Right to Possession and to Collect Accounts. Until an Event of Default has occurred and except as otherwise provided below with respect to accounts, Grantor may have possession of the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the Collateral and may use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession and beneficial use shall not apply to any Collateral where possession of the Collateral by the Secured Party is required by law to perfect the Secured Party's security interest in such Collateral. Until an Event of Default has occurred and until otherwise notified by the Secured Party, Grantor may collect any of the Collateral consisting of accounts. At any time while an Event of Default exists, subject to the provisions of Section 8, the Secured Party may exercise its rights to collect the accounts and to notify account debtors to make payments directly to the Secured Party for application to the Obligations. If the Secured Party at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if the Secured Party takes such action for that purpose as Grantor shall request or as the Secured Party, in the Secured Party's sole discretion, shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise reasonable care. The Secured Party shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties, nor to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to secure the Obligations.

8. Cumulative Remedies. All of the Secured Party's rights and remedies, whether evidenced by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or by any other writing, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by the Secured Party to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Grantor under this Agreement, after Grantor's failure to perform, shall not affect the Secured Party's right to declare a default and to exercise its remedies.

9. Retention. Under no circumstances shall the Secured Party be deemed to have elected to retain possession of all or any part of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations unless the Secured Party has given Grantor written notice of a proposal to do so pursuant to Revised Code of Washington 62A.9-505(2), regardless of the length of time the Collateral remains in the Secured Party's possession after an Event of Default. Under no circumstances shall the Secured Party have any liability as a result of a decline in the market value of the Collateral while the Secured Party holds it.

10. Revival of Security Interest. To the extent Grantor makes a payment to the Secured Party or the Secured Party receives any payment of proceeds of Collateral, which is later invalidated, declared to be a fraudulent transfer or preference, set aside or required to be repaid under any bankruptcy law, other law or equitable principle, the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral shall be revived and continue as if the payment or proceeds had never been received by the Secured Party.

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendment. This Agreement and the other written documents, instruments and agreements entered into in connection with the Loan and the Obligations contain the complete and final expression of the entire agreement of the parties. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified, waived or supplemented, except by a writing signed by the party sought to be charged with the amendment, modification, waiver or supplementation. No waiver by the Secured Party of any Default or Event of Default shall be a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default.

(b) Effectiveness. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until (i) all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash; (ii) the Secured Party shall have no further obligation to advance funds, or provide other financial accommodations, to or for the benefit of Grantor; and (iii) this Agreement shall have been terminated in writing by the Secured Party.

(iv) The Letter of Credit Issuer shall be obligated to issue Standby Letters of Credit in an aggregate stated amount equal to, but not to exceed, the full amount of the Unused SLC Sublimit; and

(v) The aggregate amount of Acceptances at any time Outstanding may not exceed $5,000,000

and, provided, further, that availability under the Revolving Commitment will be reduced from time to time by the aggregate stated amount of BV Letters of Credit Outstanding, which amount is guaranteed by the Guarantor under the Guarantee.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Term Lender shall make available to the Borrower for financing equipment and leasehold improvements a line of credit (the "Term Facility") in the maximum amount of $5,000,000 (the "Term Commitment") consisting of Floating Rate Advances, LIBOR Rate Advances and Term Rate Advances. The Term Facility and the Revolving Facility are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Facilities".

(c) (i) Upon written notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, given within thirty (30) days following the delivery pursuant to Section 5.1(c)(i) of the audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001, the Revolving Commitment shall be increased by $10,000,000 to $60,000,000, provided that the following conditions are satisfied:

(A) EBITDA for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001 is at least $24,000,000; and

(B) the number of "inventory days on hand" as of April 30, 2001 (determined as provided below) does not exceed 185.

Except for the foregoing and the receipt of written notice from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(i) above, the increase in the Revolving Commitment provided in this Section 2.1(c) shall take effect without any action on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 2.2 The Borrowings.

(a) Advances Under the Facilities.

(i) In the case of Revolving Facility Advances, each Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth below, to make its pro rata share of Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Unused Revolving Facility Commitment. Within the limits of the Unused Revolving Facility Commitment, the Borrower may request an Advance under the Revolving Facility on any Business Day and may prepay such Advance pursuant to Section 2.7 and re-borrow under the Revolving Facility pursuant to this Section 2.2(a).

(ii) In the case of a Term Facility Advance, the Term Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth below, to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to the Termination Date in an amount not to exceed the Unused Term Facility Commitment. Any Borrowing under the Term Facility that is repaid pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or prepaid pursuant to Section 2.7 may not be reborrowed.

(iii) Each request for an Advance shall be in an amount not less than $500,000, or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. At no time may LIBOR Rate Advances bearing more than four different LIBOR Rates be Outstanding.

(b) Issuance of Letters of Credit under the Revolving Facility.

(i) The Letter of Credit Issuer agrees that it shall, on the terms and conditions set forth below, provide Standby Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower; provided, however, that no Standby Letter of Credit shall be issued if the stated amount thereof exceeds the lesser of the Unused Revolving Facility Commitment or the Unused SLC Sublimit. No Standby Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date that is more than ninety (90) days after the Termination Date. A Standby Letter of Credit may provide for a single draw or a number of partial draws, as specified by the Borrower.

(ii) The Letter of Credit Issuer agrees that it shall, on the terms and conditions set forth below, provide Commercial Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower; provided, however, that no Commercial Letter of Credit shall be issued if the stated amount thereof exceeds the Unused Revolving Facility Commitment. No Commercial Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date that is more than ninety (90) days after the Termination Date. A Commercial Letter of Credit may provide for a single draw or a number of partial draws, as specified by the Borrower.

(iii) The Letter of Credit Issuer hereby grants to each Letter of Credit Participant, and, to induce the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each Letter of Credit Participant hereby accepts and purchases from the Letter of Credit Issuer, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such Letter of Credit Participant's own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment Percentage in the Letter of Credit Issuer's obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Letter of Credit Issuer thereunder. Each Letter of Credit Participant unconditionally agrees with the Letter of Credit Issuer that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer for which the Letter of Credit Issuer is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Participant shall, upon demand by the Letter of Credit Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment

Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Any amount so paid shall be a Borrowing hereunder.

(iv) If any amount required to be paid by any Letter of Credit Participant to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(iii), in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit, is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Letter of Credit Participant shall, upon demand by the Letter of Credit Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to the product of (a) such amount, times (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, times (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Letter of Credit Participant pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(iii) is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer by such Letter of Credit Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Letter of Credit Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Floating Rate Advances hereunder. A certificate of any Letter of Credit Issuer submitted to any Letter of Credit Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.2(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(v) Whenever, at any time after the Letter of Credit Issuer has made payment under any Letter of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer and has received from any Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 2.2(b)(iii), the Letter of Credit Issuer receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer will distribute to such Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required to be returned by the Letter of Credit Issuer, such Letter of Credit Participant shall return to the Letter of Credit Issuer the portion thereof previously distributed by the Letter of Credit Issuer to it.

(vi) No Letter of Credit shall be issued unless it is issued in accordance with the Letter of Credit Issuer's customary requirements, standards, fees and procedures and as set forth in the Letter of Credit Agreements and the Letter of Credit Issuer's other customary letter of credit documentation requirements, nor if it is for a purpose not described in the definition of "Letter of Credit" in Section 1.1.

(vii) The Borrower shall reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any draw on any Letter of Credit by making payment thereof to the Lender by 3:00 P.M. (Seattle time) on the date on which such draw is paid or, if any draw is to be made pursuant to a time draft, by 3:00 P.M. (Seattle time) at least one Business Day prior to the maturity of such time draft. Unless reimbursement is made by 3:00 P.M. (Seattle time) on any such date, the Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have made a Borrowing Request requesting a Floating Rate Advance under the Facilities to be made on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such draw. Such a deemed Borrowing Request will be honored only if it would have been honored if actually made by the Borrower.

(viii) The obligations of the Borrower to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for drawings made under each Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall

be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including without limitation (it being understood that any such payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to, and shall not constitute a waiver of, any rights the Borrower might have or might acquire against the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit as a result of the payment by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any draft or the reimbursement by the Borrower thereof): (A) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or against the Letter of Credit Issuer, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction; (B) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document, (C) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (D) any interruption, error or delay in transmission or delivery by facsimile or any other method, (E) payment by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (F) any other circumstances or happening whatsoever, which is similar to any of the foregoing; or (G) the fact that any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(ix) In connection with the Letters of Credit to be issued under the Revolving Facility, the Borrower may submit communications (a "Faxed Document") to Letter of Credit Issuer by facsimile transmission. With respect to such facsimile transmission, the Borrower agrees as follows:

(A) Each such Faxed Document shall be deemed an original document and shall be effective for all purposes as if it were an original. The Borrower shall retain the original of any Faxed Document and shall deliver it to the Letter of Credit Issuer on request.

(B) If the Borrower sends the Letter of Credit Issuer a manually signed confirmation of a Faxed Document, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no duty to compare it to the previously received Faxed Document nor shall it have any liability or duty to act should the contents of the confirmation differ therefrom. Any manually signed confirmation of a Faxed Document must be conspicuously marked "previously transmitted by facsimile," and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be liable for the issuance of duplicate Letters of Credit or amendments thereto that result from the Letter of Credit Issuer's receipt of confirmations not so marked.

(C) The Borrower shall have sole responsibility for the security of using facsimile transmissions and for any authorized or unauthorized Faxed Document received by the Letter of Credit Issuer, purportedly on behalf of the Borrower.

(D) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Letter of Credit Issuer from each and every claim, demand, liability, loss, cost or expense (including attorneys' fees and expenses) which may arise or be created by the Letter of Credit Issuer's acceptance of telecommunication instructions in connection with any Letter of Credit, including facsimile instructions in connection with any waiver of discrepancies.

(x) The Borrower will promptly examine each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, any amendments thereto and all information, documents and instruments delivered to the Borrower from time to time by the Letter of Credit Issuer or any of its correspondents. The Borrower shall notify the Letter of Credit Issuer within five Business Days after receipt of any of the foregoing if the Borrower claims that the Letter of Credit Issuer has failed to comply with the Borrower's instructions or the Letter of Credit Issuer's obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit or has wrongfully honored or dishonored any presentation under the

Letter of Credit or if the Borrower claims any other irregularity. If the Borrower does not so notify the Letter of Credit Issuer within such time period, the Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived, and therefore be precluded from asserting, such claims.

(i) The Credit Card Issuer shall provide the Borrower with one or more Credit Cards with an aggregate credit limit of $250,000 during the period from the Effective Date through the Termination Date. The Borrower agrees to execute the Credit Card Issuer's standard business card agreement and any other documents the Credit Card Issuer may request in connection with the provision of such Credit Cards.

(ii) The Credit Card Issuer hereby grants to each Credit Card Participant, and, to induce the Credit Card Issuer to issue Credit Cards hereunder, each Credit Card Participant hereby accepts and purchases for the Credit Card Issuer, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such Credit Card Participant's own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Credit Card Participant's Commitment Percentage in the Credit Card Issuer's obligations and rights under each Credit Card issued by the Credit Card Issuer hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Credit Card Issuer thereunder. Each Credit Card Participant unconditionally agrees with the Credit Card Issuer that, if any amounts are disbursed under any Credit Card issued by the Credit Card Issuer for which the Credit Card Issuer is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Credit Card Participant shall, upon demand by the Credit Card Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Credit Card Issuer an amount equal to such Credit Card Participant's Commitment Percentage of the amount of such disbursement, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

(iii) If any amount required to be paid by any Credit Card Participant to the Credit Card Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii), in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any disbursement made by the Credit Card Issuer under any Credit Card, is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Credit Card Issuer within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Credit Card Participant shall, upon demand by the Credit Card Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Credit Card Issuer an amount equal to the product of (a) such amount, times (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Credit Card Issuer, times (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Credit Card Participant pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii) is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Credit Card Issuer by such Credit Card Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Credit Card Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Credit Card Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Floating Rate Advances hereunder. A certificate of any Credit Card Issuer submitted to any Credit Card Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.2(c) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(iv) Whenever, at any time after the Credit Card Issuer has made a disbursement under any Credit Card issued by the Credit Card Issuer and has received from any Credit Card Participant its pro rata share of such disbursement in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(ii), the Credit Card Issuer receives any payment related to such Credit Card (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Credit Issuer will distribute to such Credit Card Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that

in the event that any such payment received by the Credit Card Issuer shall be required to be returned by the Credit Card Issuer, such Credit Card Participant shall return to the Credit Card Issuer the portion thereof previously distributed by the Credit Card Issuer to it.

(v) If the balance owing on any Credit Card issued to the Borrower under this Section 2.2(c) is more than 60 days past due, the Administrative Agent may terminate such Credit Card.

(d) Issuance of Acceptances Under the Revolving Facility.

(i) The Letter of Credit Issuer agrees that it shall, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, accept drafts (the "Drafts") drawn on the Letter of Credit Issuer and submitted to it in connection with Commercial Letters of Credit issued hereunder; provided, however, that no Draft will be accepted if the face amount thereof exceeds the Unused Acceptance Sublimit.

(ii) Each Draft presented for acceptance shall mature not later than 90 days after the date of presentation to the Letter of Credit Issuer for acceptance; provided, however, that no Draft shall have a maturity date later than the Termination Date unless the Letter of Credit Issuer otherwise agrees in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Acceptance is Outstanding as of the Termination Date, the Borrower shall, on or before the Termination Date, deliver to the Letter of Credit Issuer, as collateral for the Borrower's obligations with respect to such Acceptance, immediately available funds in an amount equal to the face amount of each such Acceptance.

(iii) The Borrower represents and warrants that each Draft it presents for acceptance is an eligible Draft as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank and complies with the Federal Reserve Act and with applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States governing banker's acceptances, or any successor thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower represents and warrants that each Draft it presents for acceptance and discounting results from a bona fide business transaction and (a) will grow out of one or more transactions involving the importation or exportation of goods; (b) will grow out of one or more transactions involving the domestic shipment of goods; or (c) will be secured at the time of acceptance of the Draft by warehouse receipts or similar documents conveying or securing title and covering readily marketable goods. The Borrower represents and warrants that no other financing of the transactions underlying any requested Acceptance whether characterized as a loan, sale, or an account receivable has been obtained or will be solicited or accepted and that no lien or security interest in or rights to the subject matter under the underlying transaction has been or will be granted to any other person without the Letter of Credit Issuer's prior written consent. The Borrower further represents and warrants that (x) completion of each transaction related to a Draft is anticipated to occur on or before the maturity date of such Draft, (y) that the maturity of each Draft will be consistent with the period usually and reasonably necessary to finance transactions of such kind, and (z) that no banker's acceptances other than the Acceptance requested hereunder have been or will be outstanding with respect to the goods covered by the Draft whose acceptance is requested hereunder.

(iv) Each accepted Draft shall be held to maturity by the Letter of Credit Issuer unless otherwise agreed by the Letter of Credit Issuer in its sole discretion.

(v) The Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer a fee for the issuance of each Acceptance in an amount equal to the face amount of the Acceptance multiplied by one and one-half percent (1.5%) per year (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed) for the period of time from the acceptance of the Draft creating the

Acceptance through the date on which the Borrower pays such Draft in full to the Letter of Credit Issuer and such Acceptance shall be deemed to be "Outstanding" for that period of time. Such fee shall be paid upon acceptance of the Draft by the Letter of Credit Issuer. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer all of its normal and customary charges and fees for the issuance and administration of banker's acceptances.

(vi) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer the face amount of each Acceptance together with all unpaid charges of and expenses paid or incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection therewith on the maturity date of such Acceptance. All such payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made not later than 11:00 a.m. Seattle time on the due dates thereof (or, if earlier, on the Termination Date) in the manner provided for repayment of Advances under the terms of this Agreement.

(vii) The Letter of Credit Issuer hereby grants to each Letter of Credit Participant, and, to induce the Letter of Credit Issuer to accept Drafts hereunder, each Letter of Credit Participant hereby accepts and purchases from the Letter of Credit Issuer, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such Letter of Credit Participant's own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment Percentage in the Letter of Credit Issuer's obligations and rights under each Draft accepted by the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder. In the event that the Borrower fails to pay any Acceptance in full on the maturity date thereof, then each Letter of Credit Participant shall, upon demand by the Letter of Credit Issuer, pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment Percentage multiplied by the amount of such Acceptance, or any part thereof which is not so reimbursed. Such payments shall be made on the terms set forth in Section 2.2(b) applicable to payments to be made by the Letter of Credit Participants to the Letter of Credit Issuer in respect of payments on Letters of Credit which are not timely reimbursed by the Borrower.

(e) Issuance of BV Letters of Credit under the BV Letter of Credit Agreement.

(i) On the terms specified in the BV Letter of Credit Agreement, the BV Letter of Credit Issuer may issue BV Letters of Credit; provided, however, that no BV Letter of Credit shall be issued if the stated amount thereof exceeds the lesser of the Unused Revolving Facility Commitment or the Unused BVLC Sublimit. No BV Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date that is more than ninety (90) days after the Termination Date.

(ii) The BV Letter of Credit Issuer hereby grants to each BV Letter of Credit Participant, and, to induce the BV Letter of Credit Issuer to issue BV Letters of Credit, each BV Letter of Credit Participant hereby accepts and purchases from the BV Letter of Credit Issuer, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such BV Letter of Credit Participant's own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such BV Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment Percentage in the BV Letter of Credit Issuer's obligations and rights under each BV Letter of Credit issued by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer thereunder. Each BV Letter of Credit Participant unconditionally agrees with the BV Letter of Credit Issuer that, if a draft is paid under any BV Letter of Credit issued by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer for which the BV Letter of Credit Issuer is not reimbursed in full by the Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such BV Letter of Credit Participant shall, upon demand by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the BV Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to such BV Letter of Credit Participant's Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

(iii) If any amount required to be paid by any BV Letter of Credit Participant to the BV Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2(e)(ii), in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer under any BV Letter of Credit, is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the BV Letter of Credit Issuer within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such BV Letter of Credit Participant shall, upon demand by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the BV Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to the product of (a) such amount, times (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the BV Letter of Credit Issuer, times (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any BV Letter of Credit Participant pursuant to Section 2.2(e)(ii) is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the BV Letter of Credit Issuer by such BV Letter of Credit Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the BV Letter of Credit Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such BV Letter of Credit Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Floating Rate Advances hereunder. A certificate of any BV Letter of Credit Issuer submitted to any BV Letter of Credit Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.2(e) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(iv) Whenever, at any time after the BV Letter of Credit Issuer has made payment under any BV Letter of Credit issued by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer and has received from any BV Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 2.2(e)(ii), the BV Letter of Credit Issuer receives any payment related to such BV Letter of Credit (whether directly from BV or the Guarantor or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the BV Letter of Credit Issuer will distribute to such BV Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required to be returned by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer, such BV Letter of Credit Participant shall return to the BV Letter of Credit Issuer the portion thereof previously distributed by the BV Letter of Credit Issuer to it.

(v) No BV Letter of Credit shall be issued unless it is issued in accordance with the BV Letter of Credit Issuer's customary requirements, standards, fees and procedures and as set forth in the BV Letter of Credit Agreement and the BV Letter of Credit Issuer's other customary letter of credit documentation requirements, nor if it is for a purpose not described in the definition of "BV Letters of Credit" in Section 1.1.

Section 2.3 Making the Borrowings.

(a) Procedure for Borrowings.

(i) Borrowing Requests. Each Borrowing Request for an Advance shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (A) in the case of Floating Rate Advances, not later than 9:00 A.M. (Seattle time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing; and (B) in the case of Fixed Rate Advances, not later than 9:00 A.M. on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request (A) for the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be made by the Borrower to the Letter of Credit Issuer not later than 9:00 A.M. (Seattle time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, and (B) for the issuance of a Credit Card shall be made by the Borrower to the Credit Card Issuer not later than 9:00 A.M. on the date of the proposed issuance of a Credit Card. Each Borrowing Request shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower by telephone or, if requested by the Administrative Agent,

the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Credit Card Issuer, by telecopy or personal delivery, in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, fully and accurately specifying the information required therein. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Request from the Borrower requesting either a Floating Rate Advance or a Fixed Rate Advance under the Revolving Facility, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Thereafter, each Lender shall make the amount of its pro rata share of each Revolving Facility Advance available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 9.2 prior to 1:00 P.M. (Seattle time), on the date of the proposed Borrowing in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such Revolving Facility Advance shall then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Availability of Borrowings. The Administrative Agent shall make Borrowings available to the Borrower as follows:

(A) In the case of a Borrowing consisting of Advances, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower in immediately available funds to the account of the Borrower at Washington Mutual Bank doing business as Western Bank, Account No. 201-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, or such other account of the Borrower as may be approved by the Lender.

(B) In the case of a Borrowing consisting of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall deliver the Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof on the date specified in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(C) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a Borrowing of a Revolving Facility Advance that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Facility Advance available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the date of the Borrowing, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.3(a)(ii)(C) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Facility Advance is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Floating Rate Advances hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower.

(b) Conversion and Continuation of Advances. The Borrower may, pursuant to a Borrowing Request (A) received by the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 A.M. (Seattle time) on the last day of any applicable Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Advance, elect to convert such Fixed Rate Advance to a Floating Rate Advance; (B) received by the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 A.M. (Seattle time) on the third Business Day prior to the day the conversion is to take effect, elect to convert any Floating Rate Advance to a Fixed Rate Advance; and (C) received by the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 A.M. (Seattle time) on the third Business Day prior to the last day of any applicable Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Advance, elect to convert or continue such Fixed Rate Advance at the same or another Fixed Rate. Each Borrowing Request

shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower by telephone or, if requested by the Administrative Agent, by telecopy or personal delivery, in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, fully and accurately specifying the information required therein.

(c) Unavailability of Fixed Rates. Notwithstanding any election of a Fixed Rate Advance for an Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.3(a) or (b) above, if:

(i) on or prior to the determination of the applicable interest rate for such Advance, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that quotations of interest rates are not being provided in the relevant market in the relevant amount, for an Interest Period; or

(ii) on or prior to the first day of an Interest Period, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that, as a result of conditions in or generally affecting the relevant market, the rates of interest on the basis of which the applicable Fixed Rate is to be computed do not accurately reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Advance for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower prompt notice thereof by telephone and the election by the Borrower of a Fixed Rate Advance for such Interest Period shall not be effective, and such Advance shall be made as a Floating Rate Advance.

Section 2.4 Interest Rates; Late Charges.

(a) Advances. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at the following rates:

(i) Floating Rate Advances. Except to the extent the Borrower has made an effective election of a Fixed Rate with respect to such Advance pursuant to Section 2.3(a) or (b), at a rate per annum equal at all times to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time, payable monthly on the first day of each month while such Advance is Outstanding.

(ii) LIBOR Rate Advances. If the Borrower has made an effective election of a LIBOR Rate with respect to such Advance, at a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of the LIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus one and three-quarters percent (1.75%) per annum, payable on the last day of each such Interest Period; provided, that if the Interest Period is longer than three months, interest shall be payable on the last day of each three-month period during such Interest Period and on the last day of such Interest Period.

(iii) Term Rate Advances.

Section 2.9 Increased Costs.

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction after the date of this Agreement of or any change after the date of this Agreement (including any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements or assessments other than those referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request issued or made after the date of this Agreement from or by any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case above, other than those referred to in Section 2.9(b), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or maintain, or of making or maintaining, Fixed Rate Advances or there shall be any increase in the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer of agreeing to issue or maintain, or of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, pay to such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer additional amounts sufficient to reimburse such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer for all such increased costs.

A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by a Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Credit Card Issuer, shall, if made reasonably and in good faith, be presumptive evidence of such amounts and binding for all purposes.

Section 2.10 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for a Creditor Party to perform its obligations hereunder to make Fixed Rate Advances or to purchase risk participations in any Letter of Credit or Credit Card, to continue to fund or maintain such Advances hereunder, for the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue or maintain Letters of Credit or for the Credit Card Issuer to issue or maintain Credit Cards, such Creditor Parties may, by notice to the Borrower, suspend the right of the Borrower to elect such Fixed Rate Advances or to request Letters of Credit to be issued, as the case may be, and, if necessary in the reasonable opinion of such Creditor Parties to comply with such law or regulation, Borrower shall prepay all such Fixed Rate Advances at the latest time permitted by the applicable law or regulation.

(a) LIBOR Rate Advances. In the case of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Advances, the Borrower shall pay any amounts required to compensate the Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or failure to prepay, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Lender to fund or maintain such Advances.

(b) Term Rate Advances. In the case of prepayment of Term Rate Advances (but subject to the provisions of paragraph (v) below), the Borrower shall pay a prepayment fee calculated separately for each Prepaid Installment:

(i) The Term Lender shall first determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the Prepaid Installment had it remained outstanding until the applicable Original Payment Date, using the applicable Term Rate.

(ii) The Term Lender shall then subtract from each monthly interest amount determined in paragraph (i) above, the amount of interest which would accrue on that Prepaid Installment if the Prepaid Installment were reinvested from the date of prepayment through the Original Payment Date at the Treasury Rate.

(iii) If the remainder determined in paragraph (ii) with respect to the Prepaid Installment is greater than zero, the Term Lender shall discount the monthly differences to the date of prepayment by the Treasury Rate. The sum of the discounted monthly differences for the Prepaid Installment shall be the amount of the prepayment fee due hereunder with respect to the Prepaid Installment.

(iv) The following definitions will apply to the calculation of the prepayment fee for purposes of this Section 2.11(b):

(A) "Original Payment Dates" means the dates on which principal of a Term Rate Advance would have been paid if there had been no prepayment.

(B) "Prepaid Installment" means the amount of the prepaid principal of a Term Rate Advance which would have been paid on a single Original Payment Date.

(C) "Treasury Rate" means the interest rate yield for U.S. Treasury securities which the Lender determines could be obtained by reinvesting a specified Prepaid Installment in such securities from the date of prepayment through the Original Payment Date. The Treasury Rate may be based on information from either the Telerate or Reuters information services, the Wall Street Journal or other information sources the Lender deems appropriate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11(b), the Borrower may prepay the principal of Term Rate Advances, without liability for any prepayment fee that would otherwise be payable under this Section 2.11(b), in an amount of up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Rate Advances made by the Term Lender to the Borrower from time to time under the Term Facility (including any Term Rate Advances that have previously been prepaid or repaid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement). Any prepayment in excess of such amount shall be subject to payment of a prepayment fee in accordance with this Section 2.11(b).

Section 2.12 Evidence of Debt. The Advances made by the Lenders to the Borrower, and the obligations of the Borrower to both reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for draws on Letters of Credit and reimburse the Credit Card Issuer for disbursements made under Credit Cards, shall be evidenced by a Note payable to the order of each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Commitment. Each Lender may maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from Advances and payments made from time to time hereunder. In any legal action or proceeding in respect of this Agreement or the Notes, the entries made in such account or accounts shall be presumptive evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded, if made reasonably and in good faith.

Section 2.13 Collateral. As security for the Obligations and for the performance by the Borrower of its other obligations hereunder and under all the other Loan Documents, the Borrower shall grant to the Administrative Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer, the BV Letter of Credit Issuer and the BV Lender an attached, fully perfected, first-priority security interest in the Collateral, subject to the terms of the Security Agreement.

Section 2.14 Use of Proceeds. Proceeds of the Revolving Facility Advances and disbursements made under Credit Cards shall be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrower, including, without limitation, for repayment of any other Advances and reimbursement of draws under Letters of Credit, and for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Proceeds of the Term Facility Advances may be used to finance the Borrower's equipment and leasehold improvements.

(h) Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in the Borrower's financial condition.

Provided, however, that none of the foregoing events (other than those referred to in paragraph (a)) shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder if (i) it is curable and if the Borrower has not been given a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months and (ii) the Borrower, after receiving written notice from the Administrative Agent demanding cure of such default, (A) cures the default within fifteen (15) days or (B) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps which the Required Lenders deem in their sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

(b) Upon the declaration of the Obligations, as due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2, each Creditor Party is hereby authorized on behalf of the Creditor Parties at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all

deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by said Creditor Party to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents irrespective of whether or not such Creditor Party shall have made any demand. The rights of the Creditor Parties under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Creditor Parties may have.

Section 6.4 Cumulative Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Creditor Parties may proceed to enforce the Loan Documents by exercising such remedies as are available thereunder or in respect thereof under applicable law, whether for specific performance of any covenant or other agreement contained in the Loan Documents or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in the Loan Documents.

Section 6.5 Application of Payments. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Creditor Parties shall apply all funds received in respect of amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in such order as the Required Lenders may determine in their sole discretion notwithstanding any instruction from the Borrower.

ARTICLE VII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 7.1 Appointment. Each Creditor Party hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Creditor Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Creditor Party irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Creditor Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

Section 7.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (i) liable to any of the Creditor Parties for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Creditor Parties for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any representative thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in

connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Creditor Party to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

Section 7.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in taking any action or in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Creditor Parties and all future holders of the obligations owing by the Borrower hereunder.

Section 7.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Creditor Party or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Creditor Parties. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Creditor Parties; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Creditor Parties.

Section 7.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Creditor Parties. Each Creditor Party expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Creditor Party. Each Creditor Party represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor Party, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to make Advances hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Creditor Party also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor Party, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Creditor Parties by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Creditor Party with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the

possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

Section 7.7 Indemnification. The Creditor Parties agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the aggregate Advances Outstanding shall have been reduced to zero, ratably in accordance with their Commitment Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the amounts owing hereunder) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Creditor Party shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Article VII shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 7.8 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Advances made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Creditor Party and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term "Creditor Party" shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 7.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Creditor Parties. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Creditor Parties a successor agent for the Creditor Parties, which successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

ARTICLE VIII
GUARANTEE

Section 8.1 Guarantee. In order to induce the BV Lender and the BV Letter of Credit Issuer to execute, deliver and extend credit pursuant to the BV Facilities, and in consideration thereof, the Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each of the BV Creditors the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, including allocated

costs of internal counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the BV Creditors in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights under this Article VIII. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by BV but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving BV. The Guarantee made in this Article VIII shall remain in full force and effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and any BV Letter of Credit has been surrendered to the BV Creditors for cancellation.

(a) No payment or payments made by the Guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the BV Creditors from the Guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder who shall remain obligated hereunder, notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made by or received or collected from BV or the Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations) until the date upon which the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and any BV Letter of Credit has been surrendered to the BV Creditors for cancellation.

Section 8.2 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor, or any set-off or application of funds of the Guarantor by the BV Creditors, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the BV Creditors against BV or against any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the BV Creditors for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from BV in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and any related letters of credit have been surrendered to the BV Creditors for cancellation. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when the Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the BV Creditors, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor and shall, immediately upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the BV Creditors in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly endorsed by the Guarantor to the BV Lender or BV Letter of Credit Issuer, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the BV Creditors may determine.

Section 8.3 Amendments, Etc. The Guarantor shall remain obligated on this Guarantee notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, (a) any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by or on behalf of the BV Creditors may be rescinded and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, (b) the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the BV Creditors, (c) this Agreement, any other Loan Documents, the BV Letter of Credit Agreement, the BV Line Agreements, and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the BV Creditors may deem advisable from time to time, or (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the BV Creditors for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or the obligations of BV under the BV Letter of Credit Agreement or the BV Line Agreements may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The BV Creditors shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or the obligations of BV under the BV Letter of Credit Agreement or the BV Line Agreements or any property subject thereto. When making any demand against the Guarantor, the BV Creditors may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar

demand on BV, and any failure by the BV Creditors to make such demand or to collect payments from BV or any release of BV shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability under this Article VIII, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the BV Creditors against the Guarantor. For the purposes of this Article VIII, "demand" shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

Section 8.4 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the BV Creditors upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee. The Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee. All dealings between BV or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the BV Creditors, on the other, shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The Guarantor waives (to the extent permitted by law) diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon BV or the Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents, the BV Letter of Credit Agreement, the BV Line Agreements, or any other documents executed in connection with the BV Facilities, any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral security therefor or for the BV Facilities or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the BV Creditors, (b) any defense (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations), set-off or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by BV against the BV Creditors or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of BV or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of BV for the Guaranteed Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies against the Guarantor, the BV Creditors may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as either may have against BV or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations, the BV Letter of Credit Agreement, the BV Line Agreements, or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the BV Creditors to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from BV or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of BV or any such other Person or of any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the BV Creditors against the Guarantor.

Section 8.5 Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the BV Creditors upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of BV or the Guarantor or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, BV or the Guarantor or any substantial part of its or their property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

Section 8.6 Payments. The Guarantor agrees that the amounts payable by Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement will be paid to the BV Creditors without set-off or counterclaim.

Section 8.7 Demand on Guarantor. In the event any Guaranteed Obligation owing to Western Bank or BofA is not paid or reimbursed when due, such Creditor Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such default and request the Administrative Agent to make demand under this Guarantee for payment of such Guaranteed Obligation by the Guarantor. The Administrative Agent shall, upon receipt of such notice and request, make demand on the Guarantor under this Guarantee for the amount of Guaranteed Obligations due and payable.

Section 9.5 Binding Effect; Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Creditor Parties, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Creditor Party.

(b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in such Lender's Commitment. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer and other Creditor Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any party of this Agreement therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Advance or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the Termination Date, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.9, 2.11 and 9.4(c) with respect to its participation in the Commitment and the Advances Outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any Affiliate thereof or, with the consent of the Borrower, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Credit Card Issuer, the Administrative Agent, and other Creditor Parties (which in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld), to any other Person (collectively, "Purchasing Lenders") all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit C, executed by such Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Credit Card Issuer) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below); provided, that, except in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (x) the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment shall equal at least $5,000,000 and (y) after giving effect to each such assignment, the amount of the remaining Commitment of the assigning Lender shall equal at least $2,000,000 (or, in each case, such lesser amount as the Borrower may consent to). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (y) the transferor Lender thereunder shall to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an transferor Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender.

(d) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 9.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance

delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment Percentage of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, and risk participations in Letters of Credit or Credit Cards purchased by, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the percentage owner of an Advance, risk participation or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Creditor Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by a transferor Lender and a Purchasing Lender (and, in the case of a Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Credit Card Issuer), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Creditor Parties and the Borrower.

(f) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Lender (each, a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

(g) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Creditor Party from pledging or assigning all or any portion of its Advance and its risk participation in any Letter of Credit or Credit Card to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

Section 9.6 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.7 Governing Law. All of the Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Washington, without regard to the choice of law provisions or principles of Washington law, except to the extent that the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the state of Washington provides that the validity or perfection of any security interests in, or remedies in respect of, any particular Collateral are governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than the state of Washington (the "Governing Laws"). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and unless inconsistent with any provision of the Governing Laws that cannot be waived, the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits of the International Chamber of Commerce ("UCP") as in effect from time to time are fully incorporated herein and shall apply to all Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

Section 9.8 Mediation/Arbitration Provisions.

(a) Policy—Mediation. The parties hope there will be no disputes arising out of their relationship. To that end, each commits to cooperate in good faith and to deal fairly in performing its duties under this Agreement in order to accomplish their mutual objectives and avoid disputes. But, if a dispute arises, the parties agree to resolve all disputes by the following alternate dispute resolution process: (i) the parties will seek a fair and prompt negotiated resolution but if this is not successful, (ii) all disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration, provided that during this

process, (iii) at the request of either party made not later than seventy-five (75) days after the initial arbitration demand, the parties will attempt to resolve any dispute by nonbinding mediation (but without delaying the arbitration hearing date). The parties recognize that negotiation or mediation may not be appropriate to resolve some disputes and agree that either party may proceed with arbitration without negotiating or mediating. The parties confirm that by agreeing to this alternate dispute resolution process, they intend to give up their right to have any dispute decided in court by a judge or jury.

(b) Binding Arbitration. Any claim between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be determined by arbitration in Seattle commenced in accordance with RCW 7.04.060; provided that the total award by a single arbitrator (as opposed to a majority of three arbitrators) shall not exceed $250,000, including interest, attorneys' fees and costs. If either party demands a total award greater than $250,000, there shall be three (3) neutral arbitrators. If the parties cannot agree on the identity of the arbitrator(s) within ten (10) days of the arbitration demand, the arbitrator(s) shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) office in Seattle FROM ITS LARGE, COMPLEX CASE PANEL (OR HAVE SIMILAR PROFESSIONAL CREDENTIALS). Each arbitrator shall be an attorney with at least fifteen (15) years' experience in banking or commercial law and shall reside in the Seattle metropolitan area. Whether a claim is covered by this Agreement shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). All statutes of limitations which would otherwise be applicable shall apply to any arbitration hereunder.

(c) Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, in effect on the date hereof, as modified by this Agreement. Submission of dispositive motions shall be at the discretion of arbitrator(s). As may be shown to be necessary to ensure a fair hearing, the arbitrator(s) may authorize appropriate discovery; and may enter pre-hearing orders regarding (without limitation) scheduling, interrogatories, document exchange, depositions, witness and exhibit disclosure and issues to be heard. The arbitrator(s) shall not be bound by the rules of evidence or of civil procedure, but may consider such writings and oral presentations as reasonable business people would use in the conduct of their day-to-day affairs, and may require the parties to submit some or all of their case by written declaration or such other manner of presentations as the arbitrator(s) may determine to be appropriate.

(d) Hearing—Law—Appeal Limited. The arbitrator(s) shall take such steps as may be necessary to hold a private hearing within one hundred twenty (120) days of the initial demand for arbitration and to conclude the hearing within three (3) days; and the arbitrator(s)' written decision shall be made not later than fourteen (14) calendar days after the hearing. The parties have included these time limits in order to expedite the proceeding, but they are not jurisdictional, and the arbitrator(s) may for good cause afford or permit reasonable extensions or delays, which shall not affect the validity of the award. The written decision shall contain a brief statement of the claim(s) determined and the award made on each claim. In making the decision and award, the arbitrator(s) shall apply applicable substantive law. Absent fraud, collusion or willful misconduct by an arbitrator, the award shall be final, and judgment may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator(s) may award injunctive relief or any other remedy available from a judge, including the joinder of parties or consolidation of this arbitration with any other involving common issues of law or fact or which may promote judicial economy, and may award attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party but shall not have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages. The decision and award of the arbitrators need not be unanimous; rather, the decision and award of two arbitrators shall be final.

(e) Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. In addition to any actions taken under the preceding subparagraphs: (i) the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Creditor Parties may exercise all rights and remedies available under law with respect to any collateral, deposits and accounts, including but not limited to: offset, self-help, sale or other disposition of collateral, attachment, injunction, appointment of a receiver, judicial foreclosure and deficiency judgment or foreclosure by power of sale; (ii) by exercising any such rights and remedies under (i) the Administrative Agent shall not waive the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (d) above; (iii) any issues of law or fact which arise in connection with the exercise by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Creditor Parties of any rights and remedies available to the Creditor Parties may at the Administrative Agent's election be determined by arbitration in accordance with paragraphs (a) through (d) above; and (iv) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, so long as an arbitration demand has not been filed or served with respect to a claim, either party may elect to assert such claim in the small claims department of the appropriate district court under RCW Ch. 12.40.

Section 9.9 Severability. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability in such jurisdiction without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties waive any provision of law which renders any provision of any other Loan Documents prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the final and complete expression of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and replace and supersede all prior discussions, negotiations and understandings with respect thereto. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof nor of the other Loan Documents may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except as provided herein.

Section 9.11 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the various provisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part hereof, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any provision hereof.

Section 9.12 Gender and Number. Whenever appropriate to the meaning of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, use of the singular shall be deemed to refer to the plural, the use of the plural to the singular, and pronouns of certain gender to either or both the other genders.

Section 9.13 Confirmation of Security Documents. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each of the Security Documents continues, and will continue, in full force and effect to secure all of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, including any and all obligations arising from any increase in the Revolving Commitment as of the effective date of the Prior Loan Agreement and pursuant to Section 2.1(c).

The parties have duly executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date first written above.
