The parties agree as follows: 1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term "financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms "including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without limitation," in this or any Loan Document. This Agreement shall be construed to impart upon Bank a duty to act reasonably at all times. 2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT 2.1 CREDIT EXTENSIONS. Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions. 2.1.1 BRIDGE LOAN. (a) Bank will make advances ("Bridge Loan Advance" and, collectively, "Bridge Loan Advances"), not exceeding the Committed Bridge Loan through the Bridge Loan Maturity Date when all outstanding Bridge Loan Advances plus all accrued interest will be due and payable. Bridge Loan Advances, when repaid, may not be reborrowed. (b) To obtain a Bridge Loan Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time 1 Business Day before the day on which the Bridge Loan Advance is to be made. The notice must be in the form of Exhibit B. The notice must be signed by a Responsible Officer or designee. 2.1.2 EQUIPMENT ADVANCES. (a) Through August 18, 1999 (the "Equipment Availability End Date"), Bank will make advances ("Equipment Advance" and, collectively, "Equipment Advances") not exceeding the Committed Equipment Line. The Equipment Advances may only be used to finance or refinance Equipment purchased on or after 90 days before the date of this Agreement and may not exceed 100% of the new equipment invoice excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expense. Software and used Equipment may constitute up to 25% of the aggregate Equipment Advances. (b) Interest accrues from the date of each Equipment Advance at the rate in Section 2.3(a) and is payable monthly until the Equipment Availability End Date occurs. Each Equipment Advance is payable in 24 equal monthly installments of principal, plus accrued interest, beginning on the last day of each month following the Equipment Advance and ending on 24th month following such Equipment Advance (the "Equipment Advance Maturity Date"). Equipment Advances when repaid may not be reborrowed. (c) To obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time 1 Business Day before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made. The notice in the form of Exhibit B (Payment/Advance Form) must be signed by a Responsible Officer or designee and include a copy of the invoice for the Equipment being financed. 4 5 2.1.3 REVOLVING ADVANCES. (a) Subject to Section 3 and at Borrower's option, Bank will make Advances not exceeding the lesser of (A) the Committed Revolving Line or (B) the Borrowing Base. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement. (b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or telephone by 3:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day the Advance is to be made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B. Bank will credit Advances to Borrower's deposit account. Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to reliance. (c) The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity Date, when all Advances and other amounts due under this Agreement are immediately payable. 2.2 OVERADVANCES. If Borrower's Obligations under Section 2.1.3 exceed the lesser of either (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower must immediately pay Bank the excess. 2.3 INTEREST RATE, PAYMENTS. (a) Interest Rate. (i) Bridge Loan Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate; (ii) Equipment Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of 0.5 of one percentage point above the Prime Rate; and (iii) Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. (b) Payments. Interest due on the Bridge Loan is payable on the last day of each month. Interest due on the Equipment Advances is payable on the last day of each month. Interest due on the Committed Revolving Line is payable on the last day of each month Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit accounts including Account Number 330107065 for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will notify Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a set-off. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest accrue. 2.4 FEES. Borrower will pay: (a) Facility Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable Facility Fee of $1,250 due on the Closing Date, in the event that Borrower decides to accept the terms of the Committed Revolving Line ; and (b) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred through and after the date of this Agreement, are payable when due. 5 6 3 CONDITIONS OF LOANS 3.1 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL CREDIT EXTENSION. Bank's obligation to make the initial Credit Extension is subject to the condition precedent that Bank receives the agreements, documents and fees provided for herein. 3.2 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL ADVANCE UNDER THE COMMITTED REVOLVING LINE.

Each Credit Extension is Borrower's representation and warranty on that date that the representations and warranties of Section 0 remain true. 4 CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST 4.1 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all presently existing and later acquired Collateral to secure all Obligations and performance of each of Borrower's duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted Liens, any security interest will be a first priority security interest in the Collateral. Bank may place a "hold" on any deposit account pledged as Collateral. 5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES Borrower represents and warrants as follows: 5.1 DUE ORGANIZATION AND AUTHORIZATION. Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified. 6 7 The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's formation documents, nor constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could cause a Material Adverse Change. 5.2 COLLATERAL. Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations, and the service or property has been performed or delivered to the account debtor or its agent for immediate shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor. Borrower has no notice of any actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor whose accounts are an Eligible Account in any Borrowing Base Certificate. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. 5.3 LITIGATION. Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which an adverse decision could cause a Material Adverse Change. 5.4 NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. All consolidated financial statements for Borrower, and any Subsidiary, delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower's consolidated financial condition and Borrower's consolidated results of operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower's consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Bank. 5.5 SOLVENCY. The fair salable value of Borrower's assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; the Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature. 5.6 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. Borrower is not an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations G, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower's or any Subsidiary's properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted. 5.7 SUBSIDIARIES. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments. 7 8 5.8 FULL DISCLOSURE. No representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading. 6 AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS Borrower will do all of the following: 6.1 GOVERNMENT COMPLIANCE. Borrower will maintain its and all Subsidiaries' legal existence and good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and maintain qualification in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business or operations. Borrower will comply, and have each Subsidiary comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance with which could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business or operations or cause a Material Adverse Change. 6.2 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, REPORTS, CERTIFICATES. (a) Borrower will deliver to Bank, beginning as of the month ended December 31, 1998: (i) as soon as available, but no later than 30 days after the last day of each month, a company prepared consolidated balance sheet and income statement covering Borrower's consolidated operations during the period, in a form and certified by a Responsible Officer acceptable to Bank; (ii) as soon as available, but no later than 120 days after the last day of Borrower's fiscal year, audited consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP, consistently applied, together with an unqualified opinion on the financial statements from an independent certified public accounting firm acceptable to Bank; (iii) a prompt report of any legal actions pending or threatened against Borrower or any Subsidiary that could result in damages or costs to Borrower or any Subsidiary of $100,000 or more; and (iv) budgets, sales projections, operating plans or other financial information Bank requests. (b) Within 20 days after the last day of each month, beginning with the first month that there are outstanding Advances and prior to the initial Advance under the Committed Revolving Line, Borrower will deliver to Bank a Borrowing Base Certificate signed by a Responsible Officer in the form of Exhibit C, with aged listings of accounts receivable. (c) Bank has the right to audit Borrower's Collateral at Borrower's expense, but the audits will be conducted no more often than twice every year unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the initial audit (the cost of which shall be included in Borrower's activation fee as described in Section 3.2) of Borrower's Collateral shall be prior to any Advances under the Committed Revolving Line. 6.3 INVENTORY; RETURNS. Borrower will keep all Inventory in good and marketable condition, free from material defects. Returns and allowances between Borrower and its account debtors will follow Borrower's customary practices as they exist at execution of this Agreement. Borrower must promptly notify Bank of all returns, recoveries, disputes and claims, that involve more than $100,000. 8 9 6.4 TAXES. Borrower will make, and cause each Subsidiary to make, timely payment of all material federal, state, and local taxes or assessments and will deliver to Bank, on demand, appropriate certificates attesting to the payment. 6.5 INSURANCE. Borrower will keep its business and the Collateral insured for risks and in amounts, as Bank reasonably requests. Insurance policies will be in a form, with companies, and in amounts that are reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All property policies will have a lender's loss payable endorsement showing Bank as an additional loss payee and all liability policies will show the Bank as an additional insured and provide that the insurer must give Bank at least 20 days notice before canceling its policy. At Bank's request, Borrower will deliver certified copies of policies and evidence of all premium payments. At such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, proceeds payable under any policy will, at Bank's option, be payable to Bank on account of the Obligations. 6.6 PRIMARY ACCOUNTS. Borrower will maintain its primary depository and operating accounts with Bank. 6.7 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Borrower will execute any further instruments and take further action as Bank requests to perfect or continue Bank's security interest in the Collateral or to effect the purposes of this Agreement. 7 NEGATIVE COVENANTS Borrower will not do any of the following: 7.1 DISPOSITIONS. Convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of (collectively "Transfer"), or permit any of its Subsidiaries to Transfer, all or any part of its business or property, other than Transfers (i) of Inventory in the ordinary course of business; (ii) of non-exclusive licenses and similar arrangements for the use of the property of Borrower or its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business; (iii) of worn-out or obsolete Equipment; or (iv) exclusive rights granted to third parties to sell and distribute Borrower's certain product lines in the ordinary course of business. 7.2 CHANGES IN BUSINESS, OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT OR BUSINESS LOCATIONS. Engage in or permit any of its Subsidiaries to engage in any business other than the businesses currently engaged in by Borrower or have a material change in its ownership (other than the result of equity financings) of greater than 25%. Borrower will not, without at least 30 days prior written notice, relocate its chief executive office or add any new offices or business locations. 7.3 MERGERS OR ACQUISITIONS. Merge or consolidate, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to merge or consolidate, with any other Person, or acquire, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to acquire, all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another Person, except where (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such action during the term of this Agreement or result in a decrease of more than 25% of Tangible Net Worth; or (ii) merge or consolidate a Subsidiary into another Subsidiary or into Borrower. 9 10 7.4 INDEBTEDNESS. Create, incur, assume, or be liable for any Indebtedness, or permit any Subsidiary to do so, other than Permitted Indebtedness. 7.5 ENCUMBRANCE. Create, incur, or allow any Lien on any of its property, or assign or convey any right to receive income, including the sale of any Accounts, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so, except for Permitted Liens, or permit any Collateral not to be subject to the first priority security interest granted here. 7.6 DISTRIBUTIONS; INVESTMENTS. Except as provided in Section 7.3, directly or indirectly acquire or own any Person, or make any Investment in any Person, other than Permitted Investments, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so. Pay any dividends or make any distribution or payment or redeem, retire or purchase any capital stock, except for repurchases of stock from former employees of Borrower in accordance with the terms of its employee stock purchase agreement, provided, however, that immediately prior to and following such repurchases there exists no Event of Default under the Loan Documents. 7.7 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. Directly or indirectly enter or permit any material transaction with any Affiliate except transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, on terms less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in an arm's length transaction with a non-affiliated Person. 7.8 SUBORDINATED DEBT. Make or permit any payment on any Subordinated Debt, except under the terms of the Subordinated Debt, or amend any provision in any document relating to the Subordinated Debt without Bank's prior written consent. 7.9 COMPLIANCE. Become an "investment company" or a company controlled by an "investment company," under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or undertake as one of its important activities extending credit to purchase or carry margin stock, or use the proceeds of any Credit Extension for that purpose; fail to meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA, permit a Reportable Event or Prohibited Transaction, as defined in ERISA, to occur; fail to comply with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act or violate any other law or regulation, if the violation could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business or operations or cause a Material Adverse Change, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so. 8 EVENTS OF DEFAULT Any one of the following is an Event of Default: 8.1 PAYMENT DEFAULT. If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations; 8.2 COVENANT DEFAULT. If Borrower violates any covenant in Section 7 or does not perform or observe any other material term, condition or covenant in this Agreement, any Loan Documents, or in any agreement between 10 11 Borrower and Bank and as to any default under a term, condition or covenant that can be cured, has not cured the default within 10 days after it occurs, or if the default cannot be cured within 10 days or cannot be cured after Borrower's attempts within 10 day period, and the default may be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower has an additional period (of not more than 30 days) to attempt to cure the default. During the additional time, the failure to cure the default is not an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions will be made during the cure period); 8.3 MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE. Bank's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Credit Extensions will terminate if, in Bank's sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement. 8.4 ATTACHMENT. If any material portion of Borrower's assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver and the attachment, seizure or levy is not removed in 30 days, or if Borrower is enjoined, restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting a material part of its business or if a judgment or other claim becomes a Lien on a material portion of Borrower's assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against any of Borrower's assets by any government agency and not paid within 30 days after Borrower receives notice. These are not Events of Default if stayed or if a bond is posted pending contest by Borrower (but no Credit Extensions will be made during the cure period); 8.5 INSOLVENCY. If Borrower becomes insolvent or if Borrower begins an Insolvency Proceeding or an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against Borrower and not dismissed or stayed within 30 days (but no Credit Extensions will be made before any Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed); 8.6 OTHER AGREEMENTS. If there is a default in any agreement between Borrower and a third party that gives the third party the right to accelerate any Indebtedness exceeding $100,000 or that could cause a Material Adverse Change; 8.7 JUDGMENTS. If a money judgment(s) in the aggregate of at least $100,000 is rendered against Borrower and is unsatisfied and unstayed for 30 days (but no Credit Extensions will be made before the judgment is stayed or satisfied); or 8.8 MISREPRESENTATIONS. If Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any material misrepresentation or material misstatement now or later in any warranty or representation in this Agreement or in any writing delivered to Bank or to induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document. 11 12 9 BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES 9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); (b) Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank; (c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable; (d) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies; (e) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; (f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral; and (g) Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code. 9.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower's insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower's name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank's appointment as Borrower's attorney in fact, and all of Bank's rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide Advances terminates. 9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION. When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank's security interest in the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit. 12 13 9.4 BANK EXPENSES. If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank's waiver of any Event of Default. 9.5 BANK'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral. 9.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank's delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given. 9.7 DEMAND WAIVER. Borrower waives demand, 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 held by Bank on which Borrower is liable. 10 NOTICES All notices or demands by any party about this Agreement or any other related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by an overnight delivery service, by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telefacsimile to the addresses set forth at the beginning of this Agreement. A Party may change its notice address by giving the other Party written notice. 11 CHOICE OF LAW , VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California. BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL. 13 14 12 GENERAL PROVISIONS 12.1 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights under it without Bank's prior written consent which may be granted or withheld in Bank's discretion. Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in an interest in, Bank's obligations, rights and benefits under this Agreement, provided, however, Bank shall not effect any such transfer that results in Bank not continuing to hold controlling voting power respecting the lenders' exercise of its rights and remedies hereunder. 12.2 INDEMNIFICATION. Borrower will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses incurred, or paid by Bank from, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses), except for losses caused by Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. 12.3 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations in this Agreement. 12.4 SEVERABILITY OF PROVISION. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision. 12.5 AMENDMENTS IN WRITING, INTEGRATION. All amendments to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by Borrower and Bank. This Agreement represents the entire agreement about this subject matter, and supersedes prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents. 12.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement. 12.7 SURVIVAL.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE STOCK Corporation: ANDA NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation Number of Shares: 15,000 Class of Stock: Series B Preferred Initial Exercise Price: 60% of the price given at the next equity round, provided, however, in any case not less than the price given at the Series B round of financing Issue Date: February 18, 1999 Expiration Date: February 18, 2004, subject to Section 4.1 hereof THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for the agreed upon value of $1.00 and for other good and valuable consideration, SILICON VALLEY BANK ("Holder") is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the class of securities (the "Shares") of the corporation (the "Company") at the initial exercise price per Share (the "Warrant Price") all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Article 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. ARTICLE 1. EXERCISE. 1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Section 1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased. 1.2 Conversion Right. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Section 1.1, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares by (b) the fair market value of one Share. The fair market value of the Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 1.4. 1.3 Intentionally Omitted 1.4 Fair Market Value. If the Shares are traded in a public market, the fair market value of the Shares shall be the closing price of the Shares (or the closing price of the Company's stock into which the Shares are convertible) reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers its Notice of Exercise to the Company; provided, that, if the Warrant is being exercised upon the closing of the IPO, the value will be the initial "Price to Public" of one share of such Preferred Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Stock) specified in the final prospectus with respect to such offering. If the Shares are not traded in a public market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value in its reasonable good faith judgment. The foregoing notwithstanding, if Holder advises the Board of Directors in writing that Holder disagrees with such determination, then the Company and Holder shall promptly agree upon a reputable investment banking firm to undertake such valuation and any fees and expenses shall be paid by Holder. 1.5 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this 2 29 Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the Shares not so acquired. 1.6 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor. 1.7 Repurchase on Sale, Merger, or Consolidation of the Company. 1.7.1. "Acquisition". For the purpose of this Warrant, "Acquisition" means any sale, license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any reorganization, consolidation, or merger of the Company that results in the transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company. 1.7.2. Assumption of Warrant. Upon the closing of any Acquisition the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant Price shall be adjusted accordingly, provided that, if pursuant to such Acquisition, the entire outstanding class of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant are exchanged and a total consideration payable to the holders of such class of Shares consists entirely of cash or publicly traded securities or any combination thereof, then this Warrant shall expire upon closing of such Acquisition. 1.7.3. Purchase Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the election of Holder, the Company shall purchase the unexercised portion of this Warrant for cash upon the closing of any Acquisition for an amount equal to (a) the fair market value of any consideration that would have been received by Holder in consideration of the Shares had Holder exercised the unexercised portion of this Warrant immediately before the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to participate in the proceeds of the Acquisition, less (b) the aggregate Warrant Price of the Shares, but in no event less than zero. ARTICLE 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES. 2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its common stock (or the Shares if the Shares are securities other than common stock) payable in common stock, or other securities, subdivides the outstanding common stock into a greater amount of common stock, or, if the Shares are securities other than common stock, subdivides the Shares in a transaction that increases the amount of common stock into which the Shares are convertible, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred. 2.2 Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include any automatic conversion of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation upon the closing of a registered 2 30 public offering of the Company's common stock. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price and to the number of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events. 2.3 Adjustments for Combinations, Etc.
