(e) Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit payable in a currency other than United States Dollars, Bank shall create a reserve under the Exim Committed Line for Letters of Credit against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit.

Borrower authorizes Bank and its agents to enter upon the Collateral to make such inspections and tests as Bank may deem appropriate to determine compliance of the Collateral with this section of the Exim Agreement. Any inspections or tests made by Bank shall be at Borrower’s expense and for Bank’s purposes only and shall not be construed to create any responsibility or liability on the part of Bank to Borrower or to any other person. Borrower hereby (1) releases and waives any future claims against Bank for indemnity or contribution in the event Borrower becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws, and (2) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Bank against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, and expenses which Bank may directly or indirectly sustain or suffer resulting from a breach of this section of the Exim Agreement or as a consequence of any use, generation, manufacture, storage, disposal, release or threatened release of a hazardous waste or substance on the Collateral. The provisions of this section of the Exim Agreement,

including the obligation to indemnify, shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination, expiration or satisfaction of this Exim Agreement and shall not be affected by Bank’s acquisition of any interest in any of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise.

7.13 Loans to Shareholders or Affiliates. Without Exim Bank’s prior written consent, make any loans to any shareholder or entity affiliated with Borrower. As used in this Section, the term “loan” does not include salary, rent paid to an affiliated entity owned by the shareholders, or to other expenses incurred in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, or Permitted Investments.

7.14 Borrower Agreement: Other Agreements. Violate or otherwise fail to comply with any provision of the Borrower Agreement. Borrower will not enter into any agreement containing any provisions which would be violated or breached by the performance of Borrower’s obligations under this Exim Agreement or in connection herewith unless such provisions would be rendered ineffective under the Code (including Sections 9-406, 9-407 and 9-408 thereof) or other applicable law.

7.15 Exim Guarantee. Take any action, or permit any action to be taken, that causes or, with the passage of time, could reasonably be expected to cause, the Exim Guarantee to cease to be in full force and effect.

8. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

Any one or more of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default by Borrower under this Exim Agreement:

8.1 Payment Default. If Borrower fails to pay, when due, any of the Obligations.

8.2 Covenant Default; Cross Default. If Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any material term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement contained in this Exim Agreement, in any of the Exim Loan Documents, the Domestic Loan Documents, the Borrower Agreement or in any other present or future agreement between Borrower and Bank, or an Event of Default occurs under any of the Domestic Loan Documents or the Borrower Agreement.

8.3 Material Adverse Change. If there occurs a material ad verse change in Borrower’s business or financial condition or a material impairment of the value or priority of Bank’s security interests in the Collateral, or Bank believes the prospect of payment or performance of any Obligation is impaired.

8.4 Attachment. If any material portion of Borrower’s assets is attached, seized, subjected to a writ, distress warrant, foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, or is levied upon, or comes into the possession of any trustee, receiver or person acting in a similar capacity and such attachment, seizure, writ, distress warrant, foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, or levy has not been removed, discharged or rescinded within fifteen (15) days, or if Borrower is enjoined, restrained, or in any way prevented by court order from continuing to conduct all or any material part of its business affairs, or if a judgment or other claim becomes a lien or encumbrance upon any material portion of Borrower’s assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed of record with respect to any of Borrower’s assets by the United States Government, or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, or by any state, county, municipal, or governmental agency, and the same is not paid within fifteen (15) days after Borrower receives notice thereof, provided that none of the foregoing shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or event is stayed or an adequate bond has been posted pending a good faith contest by Borrower (provided that no Advances will be required to be made during such cure period).

8.5 Insolvency. If Borrower becomes insolvent, or if an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced by Borrower, or if an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced against Borrower and is not dismissed or stayed within thirty (30) days (provided that no Advances will be made prior to the dismissal of such Insolvency Proceeding). This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower’s Accounts, including deposit accounts, with Bank. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the Insolvency Proceeding and if Borrower gives Bank written notice of the

Insolvency Proceeding and deposits with Bank monies or a surety bond for the Insolvency Proceeding, in an amount determined by Bank, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

8.6 Other Agreements. If there is a default in any agreement to which Borrower is a party with a third party or parties resulting in the acceleration by such third party or parties, of any Indebtedness in an amount in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), or that could have a Material Adverse Effect.

8.7 Subordinated Debt. If Borrower makes any payment on account of Subordinated Debt, except to the extent such payment is allowed under any subordination agreement entered into with Bank.

8.8 Judgments. If a judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be rendered against Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of ten (10) days (provided that no Advances will be made prior to the satisfaction or stay of such judgment).

8.9 Misrepresentations. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Bank by Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf under the Loan Documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.

8.l0 Exim Guarantee; Deffective Collateralization. If the Exim Guarantee ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or if the Exim Bank declares the Exim Guarantee void or revokes or purports to revoke any obligations under the Exim Guarantee. Any of the Loan Documents ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien in any of the Collateral) at any time and for any reason.

8.11 Change in Control. Any Change in Control of Borrower shall occur. For the purposes of this Event of Default, a Change in Control means, at any time, (a) occupation of a majority of the seats (other than vacant seats) on the board of directors of Borrower by persons who were neither (i) nominated by Borrower’s board of directors nor (ii) appointed by directors so nominated; or (b) any person (as such term is used in the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), is or becomes the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) directly or indirectly of 33.33% or more of the total voting stock of Borrower on a fully diluted basis, whether as a result of the issuance, sale or distribution of securities of Borrower, any merger or consolidation to which Borrower is a party, or otherwise.

8.12 Right to Cure. If any default, other than a payment default on any Obligation, is curable and if Borrower has not been given a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Bank demanding cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiate steps which Bank deems in Bank’s 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.

9. BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

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

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

(b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Exim Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

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

(d) Notify customers of Borrower or other third parties to pay any amounts owing to Borrower directly to Bank;

(e) Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower’s owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

(f) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank;

(g) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this section 9.1, to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank’s benefit;

(h) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate;

(i) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale or at any private sale as permitted by law; and

(j) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.

9.2 Exim Direction. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Exim Bank shall have a right to: (i) direct Bank to exercise the remedies specified in section 9.1 and (ii) request that Bank accelerate the maturity of any other loans to Borrower as to which Bank has a right to accelerate.

9.3 Exim Notification. Bank shall have the right to immediately notify Exim Bank in writing if it has knowledge of the occurrence of any of the following events: (1) any failure to pay any amount due under this Loan Exim Agreement or the Line of Credit Note; (2) the Borrowing Base is less than the sum of outstanding Advances hereunder; (3) any failure to pay when due any amount payable to Bank by the Borrower under any loan(s) extended by Bank to Borrower; (4) the filing of an action for debtor’s relief by, against, or on behalf of Borrower; or (5) any threatened or pending material litigation against Borrower, or any material dispute involving Borrower.

In the event that it sends such a notification to Exim Bank, Bank shall have the right thereafter to send Exim Bank a written report on the status of the events covered by said notification on each Business Day which occurs every thirty (30) calendar days after the date of said notification, until such time as Bank files a claim with Exim Bank or said default or other events have been cured. Bank shall not have any obligation to make any Advances or to issue any Letters of Credit following said notification to Exim Bank, unless Exim Bank gives its written approval thereto. If directed to do so by Exim Bank, Bank shall have a right promptly to exercise any rights it may have against Borrower to demand the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Exim Loan Documents.

9.4 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s designated officers, or employees) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney to: (a) upon prior notice to Borrower, send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession; (c) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower’s policies of insurance; (e) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; (f) to file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Borrower where permitted by law; and (g) to transfer the Intellectual Property Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party to the extent permitted under the California Uniform Commercial Code, provided that Bank’s power of attorney hereunder with respect to the actions and powers under clauses (b) through (e) about shall be effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and provided further that Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Advances hereunder is terminated.

9.5 Accounts Collection. At any time from the date of this Exim Agreement, Bank may, upon prior notice to Borrower, notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

9.6 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Exim Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Facility as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.6 of this Exim Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Exim Agreement. Bank shall have a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Bank to exercise its rights and remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

9.7 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

9.8 Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Exim Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

9.9 Demand; Protest. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise,

settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

10. NOTICES
