$10,000,000        June 14, 2002        June 14, 2005      95-3043318
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the Maturity Date, as stated above, for value received, the undersigned
promise(s) to pay to the order of Comerica Bank-California ("Bank"), at any
office of the Bank in the State of California, Ten Million and no/100 Dollars
(U.S.) (or that portion of it advanced by the Bank and not repaid as later
provided) with interest until maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise, or
an Event of Default, as later defined, at a per annum rate equal to the Bank's
base rate from time to time in effect minus 0.75% per annum and after that at a
rate equal to the rate of interest otherwise prevailing under this Note plus 3%
per annum (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law). The
Bank's "base rate" is that annual rate of interest so designated by the Bank and
which is changed by the Bank from time to time. Interest rate changes will be
effective for interest computation purposes as and when the Bank's base rate
changes. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days the principal is outstanding. Accrued interest on this
Note shall be payable on the first day of each month commencing July 1, 2002,
until the Maturity Date when all amounts outstanding under this Note shall be
due and payable in full. If the frequency of interest payments is not otherwise
specified, accrued interest on this Note shall be payable monthly on the first
day of each month. If any payment of principal or interest under this Note shall
be payable on a day other than a day on which the Bank is open for business,
this payment shall be extended to the next succeeding business day and interest
shall be payable at the rate specified in this Note during this extension. A
late payment charge equal to 5% of each late payment may be charged on any
payment not received by the Bank within 10 calendar days after the payment due
date, but acceptance of payment of this charge shall not waive any Default under
this Note.

The principal amount payable under this Note shall be the sum of all advances
made by the Bank to or at the request of the undersigned, less principal
payments actually received in cash by the Bank. The books and records of the
Bank shall be the best evidence of the principal amount and the unpaid interest
amount owing at any time under this Note and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. No interest shall accrue under this Note until the date of the first
advance made by the Bank; after that interest on all advances shall accrue and
be computed on the principal balance outstanding from time to time under this
Note until the same is paid in full.

This Note and any other indebtedness and liabilities of any kind of the
undersigned to the Bank, and any and all modifications, renewals or extensions
of it, whether joint or several, contingent or absolute, now existing or later
arising, and however evidenced (collectively "Indebtedness") are secured by and
the Bank is granted a security interest in all items deposited in any account of
any of the undersigned with the Bank and by all proceeds of these items (cash or
otherwise), all account balances of any of the undersigned from time to time
with the Bank, by all property of any of the undersigned from time to time in
the possession of the Bank and by any other



collateral, rights and properties described in each and every deed of trust,
mortgage, security agreement, pledge, assignment and other security or
collateral agreement which has been, or will at any time(s) later be, executed
by any (or all) of the undersigned to or for the benefit of the Bank
(collectively "Collateral"). Notwithstanding the above, if the undersigned has
given or gives Bank a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property, that
deed of trust or mortgage shall not secure this Note or any other indebtedness
of the undersigned, unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as
defined in that certain Business Loan Agreement, dated as of even date herewith,
between the undersigned and the Bank (the "Loan Agreement:"), the Bank may at
its option and without prior notice to the undersigned, declare any or all of
the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable (notwithstanding any
provisions contained in the evidence of it to the contrary), cease advancing
money or extending credit to or for the benefit of the undersigned under this
Note or any other agreement between the undersigned and Bank, terminate this
Note as to any future liability or obligation of Bank, but without affecting
Bank's rights and security interests in any Collateral and the Indebtedness of
the undersigned to Bank, sell or liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral,
set off against the Indebtedness any amounts owing by the Bank to the
undersigned (or any of them), charge interest at the default rate provided in
the document evidencing the relevant Indebtedness and exercise any one or more
of the rights and remedies granted to the Bank by any agreement with the
undersigned or given to it under applicable law. In addition, if this Note is
secured by a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property, then the trustor
or mortgagor shall not mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises as security for
any other indebtedness or obligations. This Note, together with all other
indebtedness secured by said deed of trust or mortgage, shall become due and
payable immediately, without notice, at the option of the Bank, (a) if said
trustor or mortgagor shall mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises for any
other indebtedness or obligations or shall convey, assign or transfer the
mortgaged premises by deed, installment sale contract instrument, or (b) if the
title to the mortgaged premises shall become vested in any other person or party
in any manner whatsoever, or (c) if there is any disposition (through one or
more transactions) of legal or beneficial title to a controlling interest of
said trustor or mortgagor. All payments under this Note shall be in immediately
available United States funds, without setoff or counterclaim .

This Note shall bind the undersigned and the undersigned's successors and
assigns.

The undersigned waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice
of demand or intent to demand, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate,
and all other notices, and agrees that no extension or indulgence to the
undersigned or release, substitution or nonenforcement of any security, or
release or substitution of any of the undersigned, any guarantor or any other
party, whether with or without notice, shall affect the obligations of any of
the undersigned. The undersigned waives all defenses or right to discharge
available under Section 3605 of the California Uniform Commercial Code and
waives all other suretyship defenses or right to discharge. The undersigned
agrees that the Bank has the right to sell, assign, or grant participations, or
any interest, in any or all of the Indebtedness, and that, in connection with
this right, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the
full extent allowable, the Bank may disclose all documents and information which
the Bank now or later has relating to the undersigned or the Indebtedness. The
undersigned agrees that the Bank may provide



information relating to the Note or to the undersigned to the Bank's parent,
affiliates, subsidiaries and service providers, subject to the terms of the
Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

The undersigned agrees to reimburse the holder or owner of this Note for any and
all costs and expenses (including without limit, court costs, legal expenses and
reasonable attorney fees, whether inside or outside counsel is used, whether or
not suit is instituted and, if suit is instituted, whether at the trial court
level, appellate level, in a bankruptcy, probate or administrative proceeding or
otherwise) incurred in collecting or attempting to collect this Note or incurred
in any other matter or proceeding relating to this Note.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that there are no contrary agreements,
oral or written, establishing a term of this Note and agrees that the terms and
conditions of this Note may not be amended, waived or modified except in a
writing signed by an officer of the Bank expressly stating that the writing
constitutes an amendment, waiver or modification of the terms of this Note. As
used in this Note, the word "undersigned" means, individually and collectively,
each maker, accommodation party, indorser and other party signing this Note in a
similar capacity. If any provision of this Note is unenforceable in whole or
part for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be effective.
THIS NOTE IS MADE IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA,
WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

THE UNDERSIGNED AND THE BANK ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A
CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR
HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN
ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS NOTE OR THE INDEBTEDNESS.

confirmation from Borrower not later than three (3) LIBOR Business Days after
such telephone notice is given; and (ii) such notice is given to Bank prior to
10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day of the LIBOR Period. For each
LIBOR Option requested hereunder, Bank will quote the applicable fixed LIBOR
Rate to Borrower at approximately 10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day
of the LIBOR Period. If Borrower does not immediately accept the rate quoted by
Bank, any subsequent acceptance by Borrower shall be subject to a
redetermination of the rate by Bank; provided, however, that if Borrower fails
to accept any such quotation given, then the quoted rate shall expire and Bank
shall have no obligation to permit a LIBOR Option to be selected on such day. If
no specific designation of interest is made at the time any Advance is requested
under the Note or at the end of any LIBOR Period, Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected the Base Rate Option for such Advance or the principal amount to
which such LIBOR Period applied. At any time the LIBOR Option is in effect,
Borrower may, at the end of the applicable LIBOR Period, convert to the Base
Rate Option. At any time the Base Rate Option is in effect, Borrower may convert
to the LIBOR OPTION, and shall designate a LIBOR Period.

21.   Default Interest Rate. From and after the maturity date of the Note, or
such earlier date as all principal owing hereunder becomes due and payable by
acceleration or otherwise, the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall
bear interest until paid in full at an increased rate per annum (computed on the
basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) equal to three percent (3.00%)
above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to the Note.

22.   Prepayment. Bank is not under any obligation to accept any prepayment of
any LIBOR Option Advance except as described below or as required under
applicable law. Borrower may prepay a Base Rate Option Advance at any time,
without paying any Prepayment Amount, as defined below. Borrower may prepay an
LIBOR Option Advance in increments of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) prior to
the end of the LIBOR Period, as long as (i) Bank is provided written notice of
such prepayment at least five (5) LIBOR Business Days prior to the date thereof
(the "Prepayment Date"); and (ii) Borrower pays the Prepayment Amount. The
notice of prepayment shall contain the following information: (a) the Prepayment
Date; and (b) the LIBOR Option Advance which will be prepaid. On the Prepayment
Date, Borrower shall pay to Bank, in addition to any other amount that may then
be due on the Note, the Prepayment Amount. Bank, in its sole discretion, may
accept any prepayment of a LIBOR Option Advance even if not required to do so
under the Note and may deduct from the amount to be applied against the LIBOR
Option Advance any other amounts required to be paid as part of the Prepayment
Amount.

      The Prepaid Principal Amount (as defined below) will be applied to the
LIBOR Option Advance being prepaid as Bank shall determine in its sole
discretion.



      If Bank exercises its right to accelerate the payment of the Note prior to
maturity based upon an Event of Default under the Note, Borrower shall pay to
Bank, in addition to any other amounts that may then be due on the Note, on the
date specified by Bank as the Prepayment Date, the Prepayment Amount.

      Bank's determination of the Prepayment Amount shall be conclusive in the
absence of obvious error or fraud. If requested in writing by Borrower, Bank
shall provide Borrower a written statement specifying the Prepayment Amount.

      The following (the "Prepayment Amount") shall be due and payable in full
on the Prepayment Date:

      (a)   If the principal amount of the LIBOR Option Advance being prepaid
exceeds Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000), then the Prepayment
Amount is the sum of: (i) the amount of the principal balance of the LIBOR
Option Advance which Borrower has elected to prepay or the amount of the
principal balance of the LIBOR Option Advance which Bank has required Borrower
to prepay because of acceleration, as the case may be (the "Prepaid Principal
Amount"); (ii) interest accruing on the Prepaid Principal Amount up to, but not
including, the Prepayment Date; (iii) Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00); plus (iv)
the present value, discounted at the Reinvestment Rates (as defined below) of
the positive amount by which (A) the interest Bank would have earned had the
Prepaid Principal Amount not been paid prior to the end of the LIBOR Period at
the Note's interest rate exceeds (B) the interest Bank would earn by reinvesting
the Prepaid Principal Amount at the Reinvestment Rates.

      (b)   If the principal amount of the LIBOR Option Advance being prepaid is
Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) or less, then the Prepayment
Amount is the sum of: (i) the principal amount of the LIBOR Option Advance which
Borrower has elected to prepay or the principal amount of the LIBOR Option
Advance which Bank has required Borrower to prepay because of acceleration due
to an Event of Default under the Note, as the case may be (the "Prepaid
Principal Amount"); (ii) interest accruing on the Prepaid Principal Amount up
to, but not including, the Prepayment Date; plus (iii) an amount equal to two
percent (2%) of the Prepaid Principal Amount.

      "Reinvestment Rates" mean the per annum rates of interest equal to one
half percent (1/2%) above the rates of interest reasonably determined by Bank to
be in effect not more than seven (7) days prior to the Prepayment Date in the
secondary market for United States Treasury Obligations in amount(s) and with
maturity(ies) which correspond (as closely as possible) to the LIBOR Option
Advance being prepaid.

      BY INITIALING BELOW, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE(S) AND AGREE(S) THAT: (A) THERE
IS NO RIGHT TO PREPAY ANY LIBOR OPTION ADVANCE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT
PAYING THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW;
(B) BORROWER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT IF BANK
EXERCISES ITS RIGHT TO ACCELERATE PAYMENT OF ANY LIBOR OPTION ADVANCE AS PART OR
ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS OWING UNDER THE NOTE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ACCELERATION UNDER A DUE-ON-SALE PROVISION; (C) BORROWER



WAIVES ANY RIGHTS UNDER SECTION 2954.10 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, OR ANY
SUCCESSOR STATUTE; AND (D) BANK HAS MADE EACH LIBOR OPTION ADVANCE PURSUANT TO
THE NOTE IN RELIANCE ON THESE AGREEMENTS.

BORROWER'S INITIALS


23.   Hold Harmless and Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify Bank and
to hold Bank harmless from, and to reimburse Bank on demand for, all losses and
expenses which Bank sustains or incurs as a result of (i) any payment of a LIBOR
Option Advance prior to the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period for any
reason, including, without limitation, termination of the Note, whether pursuant
to this Addendum or the occurrence of an Event of Default; (ii) any termination
of a LIBOR Period prior to the date it would otherwise end in accordance with
this Addendum; or (iii) any failure by Borrower, for any reason, to borrow any
portion of a LIBOR Option Advance.

24.   Funding Losses. The indemnification and hold harmless provisions set forth
in this Addendum shall include, without limitation, all losses and expenses
arising from interest and fees that Bank pays to lenders of funds it obtains in
order to fund the loans to Borrower on the basis of the LIBOR Option(s) and all
losses incurred in liquidating or re-deploying deposits from which such funds
were obtained and loss of profit for the period after termination. A written
statement by Bank to Borrower of such losses and expenses shall be conclusive
and binding, absent manifest error, for all purposes. This obligation shall
survive the termination of this Addendum and the payment of the Note.

25.   Regulatory Developments Or Other Circumstances Relating To Illegality or
Impracticality of LIBOR. If any Regulatory Development or other circumstances
relating to the interbank Euro-dollar markets shall, at any time, in Bank's
reasonable determination , make it unlawful or impractical for Bank to fund or
maintain, during any LIBOR Period, to determine or charge interest rates based
upon LIBOR, Bank shall give notice of such circumstances to Borrower and:

      A.    In the case of a LIBOR Period in progress, Borrower shall, if
requested by Bank, promptly pay any interest which had accrued prior to such
request and the date of such request shall be deemed to be the last day of the
term of the LIBOR Period; and

      B.    No LIBOR Period may be designated thereafter until Bank determines
that such would be practical.

26.   Additional Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank from time to time, upon
Bank's request, such amounts as Bank determines are needed to compensate Bank
for any costs it incurred which are attributable to Bank having made or
maintained a LIBOR Option Advance or to Bank's obligation to make a LIBOR Option
Advance, or any reduction in any amount receivable by Bank hereunder with
respect to any LIBOR Option or such obligation (such increases in costs and
reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"),
resulting from any Regulatory Developments, which (i) change the basis of
taxation of any amounts payable to Bank hereunder with respect to taxation of
any amounts payable to Bank hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Option Advance
(other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of Bank for any LIBOR Option
Advance by the jurisdiction where Bank is headquartered or the jurisdiction



where Bank extends the LIBOR Option Advance; (ii) impose or modify any reserve,
special deposit, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or
other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, Bank (including
any LIBOR Option Advance or any deposits referred to in the definition of
LIBOR); or (iii) impose any other condition affecting this Addendum (or any of
such extension of credit or liabilities). Bank shall notify Borrower of any
event occurring after the date hereof which entitles Bank to compensation
pursuant to this paragraph as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge
thereof and determines to request such compensation. Determinations by Bank for
purposes of this paragraph, shall be conclusive, provided that such
determinations are made on a reasonable basis.

27.   Legal Effect. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms and
conditions of the Note remain in full force and effect.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have agreed to the foregoing as of the
date first set forth above.

interest and lien (any pledge, assignment, security interest or other lien
arising hereunder is sometimes referred to herein as a "security interest") in
all of Debtor's right, title and interest in and to the collateral (as defined
below) to secure payment when due, whether by stated maturity, demand
acceleration or otherwise, of all existing and future indebtedness
("Indebtedness") to the Bank of Debtor. Indebtedness includes without limit any
and all obligations or liabilities of the Debtor to the Bank, whether absolute
or contingent, direct or indirect, voluntary or involuntary, liquidated or
unliquidated, joint or several, known or unknown; any and all obligations or
liabilities for which the Debtor would otherwise be liable to the Bank were it
not for the invalidity or unenforceability of them by reason of any bankruptcy,
insolvency or other law, or for any other reason; any and all amendments,
modifications, renewals and/or extensions of any of the above; all costs
incurred by Bank in establishing, determining, continuing, or defending the
validity or priority of its security interest, or in pursuing its rights and
remedies under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Bank and
Debtor or in connection with any proceeding involving Bank as a result of any
financial accommodation to Debtor; and all other costs of collecting
Indebtedness, including without limit attorney fees. Debtor agrees to pay Bank
all such costs incurred by the Bank, immediately upon demand, and until paid all
costs shall bear interest at the highest per annum rate applicable to any of the
Indebtedness, but not in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law. Any
reference in this Agreement to attorney fees shall be deemed a reference to
reasonable fees, costs, and expenses of both in-house and outside counsel and
paralegals, whether inside or outside counsel is used, whether or not a suit or
action is instituted, and to court costs if a suit or action is instituted, and
whether attorney fees or court costs are incurred at the trial court level, on
appeal, in a bankruptcy, administrative or probate proceeding or otherwise.
Debtor further covenants, agrees and represents as follows:

has an interest in, wherever located:

   transaction relating to the program whether or not the program is associated
   with the goods in such a manner that it customarily is considered part of the
   goods, and whether or not, by becoming the owner of the goods, a person
   acquires a right to use the program in connection with the goods, and whether
   or not the program is embedded in goods that consist solely of the medium in
   which the program is embedded),

X  specific items listed below and/or on attached Schedule A, if any, is/are
   also included in Collateral:

   without limit, cash or other property which were proceeds and are recovered
   by a bankruptcy trustee or otherwise as a preferential transfer by Debtor.

In the definition of Collateral, a reference to a type of collateral shall not
be limited by a separate reference more specific or narrower type of that
collateral.

Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. Debtor warrants, covenants and agrees as
follows:

         Debtor shall furnish to Bank, in form and at intervals as Bank may
                request, any information Bank may reasonably request and allow
                Bank to examine, inspect, and copy any of Debtor's books and
                records (upon three (3) business days' notice unless an Event of
                Default has occurred and is continuing, in which event no notice
                shall be required), subject to the terms of the Confidentiality
                Agreement. Debtor shall, at the reasonable request of Bank, mark
                its records pertaining to the Collateral to clearly indicate the
                security interest of Bank under this Agreement.

         At the time any Collateral becomes, or is represented to be, subject to
                a security interest in favor of Bank Debtor shall be deemed to
                have warranted that (a) Debtor is the lawful owner of the
                Collateral and has the right and authority to subject it to a
                security interest granted to Bank; (b) none of the Collateral is
                subject to any security interest other than Permitted Liens; (c)
                there are no financing statements on file, other than in favor
                of Bank or in connection with Permitted Liens; (d) no person,
                other than Bank, has possession or control (as defined in the
                Uniform Commercial Code) of any Collateral of such nature that
                perfection of a security interest may be accomplished by
                control; and (e) Debtor acquired its rights in the Collateral in
                the ordinary course of its business.



         Debtor will keep the Collateral free at all times from all claims,
                liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted
                Liens. Debtor will not, without the prior written consent of
                Bank, sell, transfer or lease, or permit to be sold, transferred
                or leased, any or all of the Collateral, except as permitted
                under the terms of the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined),
                and will not return any Inventory to its supplier. Bank or its
                representatives may at all reasonable times inspect the
                Collateral and may enter upon all premises where the Collateral
                is kept or might be located (upon three (3) business days'
                notice unless an Event of Default has occurred and is
                continuing, in which event no notice shall be required).

         Debtor will do all acts and will execute or cause to be executed all
                writings reasonably requested by Bank to establish, maintain and
                continue an exclusive, perfected and first security interest of
                Bank in the Collateral. Debtor agrees that Bank has no
                obligation to acquire or perfect any lien on or security
                interest in any asset(s), whether realty or personalty, to
                secure payment of the Indebtedness, and Debtor is not relying
                upon assets in which the Bank may have a lien or security
                interest for payment of the indebtedness.

         Debtor will pay within the time that they can be paid without
                interest or penalty all taxes, assessments and similar charges
                which at any time are or may become a lien, charge, or
                encumbrance upon any Collateral, except to the extent Borrower
                is contesting the same in good faith in appropriate proceedings
                and Borrower has established reserves in accordance with GAAP.
                If Debtor fails to pay any of these taxes, assessments, or other
                charges in the time provided above, Bank has the option (but not
                the obligation) to do so and Debtor agrees to repay all amounts
                so expended by Bank immediately upon demand, together with
                interest at the highest lawful default rate which could be
                charged by Bank on any Indebtedness.

         Debtor will keep the Collateral in good condition and will protect it
                from loss, damage, or deterioration from any cause. Debtor has
                and will maintain at all times (a) with respect to the
                Collateral, insurance under an "all risk" policy against fire
                and other risks customarily insured against, and (b) public
                liability insurance and other insurance as may be required by
                law or reasonably required by Bank, all of which insurance shall
                be in amount, form and content, and written by companies as may
                be satisfactory to Bank, containing a lender's loss payable
                endorsement acceptable to Bank. Debtor will deliver to Bank
                immediately upon demand evidence satisfactory to Bank that the
                required insurance has been procured. If Debtor fails to
                maintain satisfactory insurance Bank has the option (but not the
                obligation) to do so and Debtor agrees to repay all amounts so
                expended by Bank immediately upon demand, together with interest
                at the highest lawful default rate which could be charged by
                Bank on any Indebtedness.

         [Intentionally Omitted.]

         Debtor at all times shall be in strict compliance with all
                Environmental Laws.



             If Bank, acting in its sole discretion, redelivers Collateral to
                Debtor or Debtor's designee for the purpose of (a) the ultimate
                sale or exchange thereof; or (b) presentation, collection,
                renewal, or registration of transfer thereof; or (c) loading,
                unloading, storing, shipping, transshipping, manufacturing,
                processing or otherwise dealing with it preliminary to sale or
                exchange; such redelivery shall be in trust for the benefit of
                Bank and shall not constitute a release of Bank's security
                interest in it or in the proceeds or products of it unless Bank
                specifically so agrees in writing. If Debtor requests any such
                redelivery, Debtor will deliver with such request a duty
                executed financing statement in form and substance satisfactory
                to Bank. Any proceeds of Collateral coming into Debtor's
                possession as a result of any such redelivery shall be held in
                trust for Bank and immediately delivered to Bank for application
                on the Indebtedness. Bank may (in its sole discretion) deliver
                any or all of the Collateral to Debtor, and such delivery by
                Bank shall discharge Bank from all liability or responsibility
                for such Collateral. Bank, at its option, may require delivery
                of any Collateral to Bank at any time with such endorsements or
                assignments of the Collateral as Bank may request.

             At any time and without notice, upon the occurrence and during
                the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, as to
                Collateral other than Equipment, Fixtures or Inventory, (a)
                cause any or all of such Collateral to be transferred to its
                name or to the name of its nominees; (b) receive or collect by
                legal proceedings or otherwise all dividends, interest,
                principal payments and other sums and all other distributions at
                any time payable or receivable on account of such Collateral,
                and hold the same as Collateral or apply the same to the
                Indebtedness, the manner and distribution of the application to
                be in the sole discretion of Bank; (c) enter into any extension,
                subordination, reorganization, deposit, merger or consolidation
                agreement or any other agreement relating to or affecting such
                Collateral, and deposit or surrender control of such Collateral,
                and accept other property in exchange for such Collateral and
                hold or apply the property or money so received pursuant to this
                Agreement; and (d) take such actions in its own name or in
                Debtor's name as Bank, in its sole discretion, deems necessary
                or appropriate to establish exclusive control (as defined in the
                Uniform Commercial Code) over any Collateral of such nature that
                perfection of the Bank's security interest may be accomplished
                by control.

             Bank may assign any of the Indebtedness and deliver any or all of
                the Collateral to its assignee, who then shall have with respect
                to Collateral so delivered all the rights and powers of Bank
                under this Agreement, and after that Bank shall be fully
                discharged from all liability and responsibility with respect to
                Collateral so delivered.

             [Intentionally Omitted.]

             Debtor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank, its
                employees, agents, shareholders, affiliates, officers, and
                directors from and against any and all claims, damages, fines,
                expenses, liabilities or causes of action of whatever kind,
                including without limit consultant fees, legal expenses, and
                attorney fees, suffered



                by any of them as a direct or indirect result of any actual or
                asserted violation of any law, including, without limit,
                Environmental Laws, or of any remediation relating to any
                property required by any law, including without limit
                Environmental Laws, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS, DAMAGES, FINES,
                EXPENSES, LIABILITIES OR CAUSES OF ACTION OF WHATEVER KIND
                RESULTING FROM BANK'S OWN NEGLIGENCE, except and to the extent
                (but only to the extent) caused by Bank's gross negligence or
                willful misconduct.

Collection of Proceeds.

         Debtor agrees to collect and enforce payment of all Collateral until
                Bank shall direct Debtor to the contrary. Immediately upon
                notice to Debtor by Bank and at all times after that, after the
                occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
                Debtor agrees to fully and promptly cooperate and assist Bank in
                the collection and enforcement of all Collateral and to hold in
                trust for Bank all payments received in connection with
                Collateral and from the sale, lease or other disposition of any
                Collateral, all rights by way of suretyship or guaranty and all
                rights in the nature of a lien or security interest which Debtor
                now or later has regarding Collateral. Immediately upon and
                after such notice, Debtor agrees to (a) endorse to Bank and
                immediately deliver to Bank all payments received on Collateral
                or from the sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral
                or arising from any other rights or interests of Debtor in the
                Collateral, in the form received by Debtor without commingling
                with any other funds, and (b) immediately deliver to Bank all
                property in Debtor's possession or later coming into Debtor's
                possession through enforcement of Debtor's rights or interests
                in the Collateral. Debtor irrevocably authorizes Bank or any
                Bank employee or agent to endorse the name of Debtor upon any
                checks or other items which are received in payment for any
                Collateral, and to do any and all things necessary in order to
                reduce these items to money. Bank shall have no duty as to the
                collection or protection of Collateral or the proceeds of it,
                nor as to the preservation of any related rights, beyond the use
                of reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral
                in the possession of Bank. Debtor agrees to take all steps
                necessary to preserve rights against prior parties with respect
                to the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 3.1 shall be deemed a
                consent by Bank to any sale, lease or other disposition of any
                Collateral.

         Debtor agrees that immediately upon Bank's request (upon the occurrence
                and during the continuance of an Event of Default) the
                indebtedness shall be on a "remittance basis" as follows: Debtor
                shall at its sole expense establish and maintain (and Bank at
                Bank's option, may establish and maintain at Debtor's expense):
                (a) an United States Post Office lock box (the "Lock Box"), to
                which Bank shall have exclusive access and control. Debtor
                expressly authorizes Bank, from time to time, to remove contents
                from the Lock Box, for disposition in accordance with this
                Agreement. Debtor agrees to notify all account debtors and other
                parties obligated to Debtor that all payments made to Debtor
                (other than payments by electronic funds transfer) shall be
                remitted, for the credit of Debtor, to the Lock Box, and Debtor
                shall include a like statement on all invoices; and (b) a non-



                  interest bearing deposit account with Bank which shall be
                  titled as designated by Bank (the "Cash Collateral Account")
                  to which Bank shall have exclusive access and control. Debtor
                  agrees to notify all account debtors and other parties
                  obligated to Debtor that all payments made to Debtor by
                  electronic funds transfer shall be remitted to the Cash
                  Collateral Account, and Debtor, at Bank's request, shall
                  include a like statement on all invoices. Debtor shall execute
                  all documents and authorizations as required by Bank to
                  establish and maintain the Lock Box and the Cash Collateral
                  Account.

              All items or amounts which are remitted to the Lock Box, to the
                  Cash Collateral Account, or otherwise delivered by or for the
                  benefit of Debtor to Bank on account of partial or full
                  payment of, or with respect to, any Collateral shalt, at
                  Bank's option, (a) be applied to the payment of the
                  Indebtedness, whether then due or not, in such order or at
                  such time of application as Bank may determine in its sole
                  discretion, or, (b) be deposited to the Cash Collateral
                  Account. Debtor agrees that Bank shall not be liable for any
                  loss or damage which Debtor may suffer as a result of Bank's
                  processing of items or its exercise of any other rights or
                  remedies under this Agreement, including without limitation
                  indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of revenues
                  or profits, or any claim, demand or action by any third party
                  arising out of or in connection with the processing of items
                  or the exercise of any other rights or remedies under this
                  Agreement. Debtor agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless
                  from and against all such third party claims, demands or
                  actions, and all related expenses or liabilities, including,
                  without limitation, attorney's fees and INCLUDING CLAIMS,
                  DAMAGES, FINES, EXPENSES, LIABILITIES OR CAUSES OF ACTION OF
                  WHATEVER KIND RESULTING FROM BANK'S OWN NEGLIGENCE except to
                  the extent (but only to the extent) caused by Bank's gross
                  negligence or willful misconduct.

Defaults, Enforcement and Application of Proceeds.

              An "Event of Default" as defined in the Loan Agreement shall be an
                  Event of Default hereunder.

              Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Bank may at its
                  discretion and without prior notice to Debtor declare any or
                  all of the indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, and
                  shall have and may exercise any one or more of the following
                  rights and remedies:

                  Exercise all the rights and remedies upon Default, in
                      foreclosure and otherwise, available to secured parties
                      under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code and
                      other applicable law;

                  Institutelegal proceedings to foreclose upon the lien and
                      security interest granted by this Agreement, to recover
                      judgment for all amounts then due and owing as
                      Indebtedness, and to collect the same out of any
                      Collateral or the proceeds of any sale of it;



                  Institutelegal proceedings for the sale, under the judgment
                           or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, of
                           any or all Collateral; and/or

                  Personally or by agents, attorneys, or appointment of a
                           receiver, enter upon any premises where Collateral
                           may then be located, and take possession of all or
                           any of it and/or render it unusable; and without
                           being responsible for loss or damage to such
                           Collateral, hold, operate, sell, lease, or dispose of
                           all or any Collateral at one or more public or
                           private sales, leasings or other dispositions, at
                           places and it on terms and conditions as Bank may
                           deem fit, without any previous demand or
                           advertisement; and except as provided in this
                           Agreement, all notice of sale, lease or other
                           disposition, and advertisement, and other notice or
                           demand, any right or equity of redemption, and any
                           obligation of a prospective purchaser or lessee to
                           inquire as to the power and authority of Bank to
                           sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral
                           or as to the application by Bank of the proceeds of
                           sale or otherwise, which would otherwise be required
                           by, or available to Debtor under, applicable law are
                           expressly waived by Debtor to the fullest extent
                           permitted.

                           At any sale pursuant to this Section 4.2, whether
                           under the power of sale, by virtue of judicial
                           proceedings or otherwise, it shall not be necessary
                           for Bank or a public officer under order of a court
                           to have present physical or constructive possession
                           of Collateral to be sold. The recitals contained in
                           any conveyances and receipts made and given by Bank
                           or the public officer to any purchaser at any sale
                           made pursuant to this Agreement shall, to the extent
                           permitted by applicable law, conclusively establish
                           the truth and accuracy of the matters stated
                           (including, without limit, as to the amounts of the
                           principal of and interest on the Indebtedness, the
                           accrual and nonpayment of it and advertisement and
                           conduct of the sale); and all prerequisites to the
                           sale shall be presumed to have been satisfied and
                           performed. Upon any sale of any Collateral, the
                           receipt of the officer making the sale under judicial
                           proceedings or of Bank shall be sufficient discharge
                           to the purchaser for the purchase money, and the
                           purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the
                           application of the money. Any sale of any Collateral
                           under this Agreement shall be a perpetual bar against
                           Debtor with respect to that Collateral. At any sale
                           or other disposition of the Collateral pursuant to
                           this Section 4.2, Bank disclaims all warranties which
                           would otherwise be given under the Uniform Commercial
                           Code, including without limit a disclaimer of any
                           warranty relating to title, possession, quiet
                           enjoyment or the like, and Bank may communicate these
                           disclaimers to a purchaser at such disposition. This
                           disclaimer of warranties will not render the sale
                           commercially unreasonable.

             Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
                  Default, debtor shall at the request of Bank, notify the
                  account debtors or obligors of Bank's security interest in the
                  Collateral and direct payment of it to Bank. Bank may, itself,
                  upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
                  Default so notify and direct any account debtor or obligor. At
                  the reasonable request of Bank, whether or not an Event of
                  Default shall have occurred, Debtor shall immediately take
                  such actions as the Bank shall request to establish exclusive
                  control (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) by Bank
                  over any Collateral which is of such a nature that perfection
                  of a security interest may be accomplished by control.

              The proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral
                  authorized by this Agreement shall be applied by Bank first
                  upon all expenses authorized by the Uniform Commercial Code
                  and all reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses incurred
                  by



                  Bank; the balance of the proceeds of the sale or other
                  disposition shall be applied in the payment of the
                  Indebtedness, first to interest, then to principal, then to
                  remaining Indebtedness and the surplus, if any, shall be paid
                  over to Debtor or to such other person(s) as may be entitled
                  to it under applicable law. Debtor shall remain liable for any
                  deficiency, which it shall pay to Bank immediately upon
                  demand. Debtor agrees that Secured Party shall be under no
                  obligation to accept any noncash proceeds in connection with
                  any sale or disposition of Collateral unless failure to do so
                  would be commercially unreasonable. If Secured Party agrees in
                  its sole discretion to accept noncash proceeds (unless the
                  failure to do so would be commercially unreasonable), Secured
                  Party may ascribe any commercially reasonable value to such
                  proceeds. Without limiting the foregoing, Secured Party may
                  apply any discount factor in determining the present value of
                  proceeds to be received in the future or may elect to apply
                  proceeds to be received in the future only as and when such
                  proceeds are actually received in cash by Secured Party.

              Nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall it be construed,
                  to preclude Bank from pursuing any other remedy provided by
                  law for the collection of the Indebtedness or for the recovery
                  of any other sum to which Bank may be entitled for the breach
                  of this Agreement by Debtor. Nothing in this Agreement shall
                  reduce or release in any way any rights or security interests
                  of Bank contained in any existing agreement between Borrower,
                  Debtor, or any Guarantor and Bank.

              No waiver of Default or consent to any act by Debtor shall be
                  effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized
                  officer of Bank. No waiver of any Default or forbearance on
                  the part of Bank in enforcing any of its rights under this
                  Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other Default or of
                  the same Default on a future occasion or of any rights.

              Debtor hereby (a) irrevocably appoints Bank or any agent of Bank
                  (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the true and
                  lawful attorney of Debtor (with full power of substitution) in
                  the name, place and stead of, and at the expense of, Debtor
                  and (b) authorizes Bank or any agent of Bank, in its own name,
                  at Debtor's expense, to do any of the following at any time
                  (upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
                  Default), as Bank, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate:

                  to demand, receive, sue for, and give receipts or acquittances
                        for any moneys due or to become due on any Collateral
                        and to endorse any item representing any payment on or
                        proceeds of the Collateral;

                  to execute and file in the name of and on behalf of Debtor all
                        financing statements or other filings deemed necessary
                        or desirable by Bank to evidence, perfect, or continue
                        the security interests granted in this Agreement; and

                  to do and perform any act on behalf of Debtor permitted or
                        required under this Agreement.

              Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
                  Default, Debtor also agrees, upon request of Bank, to assemble
                  the Collateral and make it available to



                  Bank at any place designated by Bank which is reasonably
                  convenient to Bank and Debtor.

              The following shall be the basis for any finder of fact's
                  determination of the value of any Collateral which is the
                  subject matter of a disposition giving rise to a calculation
                  of any surplus or deficiency under Section 9615(f) of the
                  Uniform Commercial Code (as in effect on or after July 1,
                  2001): (a) The Collateral which is the subject matter of the
                  disposition shall be valued in an "as is" condition as of the
                  date of the disposition, without any assumption or expectation
                  that such Collateral wilt be repaired or improved in any
                  manner; (b) the valuation shall be based upon an assumption
                  that the transferee of such Collateral desires a resale of the
                  Collateral for cash promptly (but no later than 30 days)
                  following the disposition; (c) all reasonable closing costs
                  customarily borne by the seller in commercial sales
                  transactions relating to property similar to such Collateral
                  shall be deducted including, without limitation, brokerage
                  commissions, tax prorations, attorney's fees, whether inside
                  or outside counsel is used, and marketing costs; (d) the value
                  of the Collateral which is the subject matter of the
                  disposition shall be further discounted to account for any
                  estimated holding costs associated with maintaining such
                  Collateral pending sale (to the extent not accounted for in
                  (c) above), and other maintenance, operational and ownership
                  expenses; and (e) any expert opinion testimony given or
                  considered in connection with a determination of the value of
                  such Collateral must be given by persons having at least 5
                  years experience in appraising property similar to the
                  Collateral and who have conducted and prepared a complete
                  written appraisal of such Collateral taking into consideration
                  the factors set forth above. The "value" of any such
                  Collateral shall be a factor in determining the amount of
                  proceeds which would have been realized in a disposition to a
                  transferee other than a secured party, a person related to a
                  secured party or a secondary obligor under Section 9615(f) of
                  the Uniform Commercial Code.

Miscellaneous.

              Until Bank is advised in writing by Debtor to the contrary, all
                  notices, requests and demands required under this Agreement or
                  by law shall be given to, or made upon, Debtor at the first
                  address indicated in Section 5.15 below.

              Debtor wilt give Bank not less than 30 days' prior written notice
                  of all contemplated changes in Debtor's name, location, chief
                  executive office, principal place of business, and/or location
                  of any Collateral (other than the Sales of Inventory in the
                  ordinary course of business), but the giving of this notice
                  shall not cure any Event of Default caused by this change.

              Bank assumes no duty of performance or other responsibility under
                  any contracts contained within the Collateral.

              Bank has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant
                  participations or any interest in, any or all of the
                  Indebtedness and any related obligations, including without



                  limit this Agreement. in connection with the above, but
                  without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the
                  full extent allowable, Bank may disclose all documents and
                  information which Bank now or later has relating to Debtor,
                  the Indebtedness or this Agreement, however obtained, subject
                  to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Debtor further
                  agrees that Bank may provide information relating to this
                  Agreement or relating to Debtor to the Bank's parent,
                  affiliates, subsidiaries, and service providers.

         In addition to Bank's other rights, any indebtedness owing from Bank to
                  Debtor can be set off and applied by Bank on any Indebtedness
                  at any time(s) either before or after maturity or demand
                  without notice to anyone. Any such action shall not constitute
                  acceptance of collateral in discharge of any portion of the
                  Indebtedness.

         [Intentionally Omitted.]

         [Intentionally Omitted.]

         In the event that applicable law shall obligate Bank to give prior
                  notice to Debtor of any action to be taken under this
                  Agreement, Debtor agrees that a written notice given to Debtor
                  at least ten days before the date of the act shall be
                  reasonable notice of the act and, specifically, reasonable
                  notification of the time and place of any public sale or of
                  the time after which any private sale, lease, or other
                  disposition is to be made, unless a shorter notice period is
                  reasonable under the circumstances. A notice shall be deemed
                  to be given under this Agreement when delivered to Debtor or
                  when placed in an envelope addressed to Debtor and deposited,
                  with postage prepaid, in a post office or official depository
                  under the exclusive care and custody of the United States
                  Postal Service or delivered to an overnight courier. The
                  mailing shall be by overnight courier, certified, or first
                  class mail.

         Notwithstanding any prior revocation, termination, surrender, or
                  discharge of this Agreement in whole or in part, the
                  effectiveness of this Agreement shall automatically continue
                  or be reinstated in the event that any payment received or
                  credit given by Bank in respect of the Indebtedness is
                  returned, disgorged, or rescinded under any applicable law,
                  including, without limitation, bankruptcy or insolvency laws,
                  in which case this Agreement, shall be enforceable against
                  Debtor as if the returned, disgorged, or rescinded payment or
                  credit had not been received or given by Bank, and whether or
                  not Bank relied upon this payment or credit or changed its
                  position as a consequence of it. In the event of continuation
                  or reinstatement of this Agreement, Debtor agrees upon demand
                  by Bank to execute and deliver to Bank those documents which
                  Bank determines are appropriate to further evidence (in the
                  public records or otherwise) this continuation or
                  reinstatement, although the failure of Debtor to do so shall
                  not affect in any way the reinstatement or continuation.

         This Agreement and all the rights and remedies of Bank under this
                  Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Bank's successors and
                  assigns and to any other holder who derives from Bank title to
                  or an interest in the Indebtedness or any portion of it,



       and shall bind Debtor and the heirs, legal representatives, successors,
       and assigns of Debtor. Nothing in this Section 5.10 is deemed a consent
       by Bank to any assignment by Debtor.

[Intentionally Omitted.]

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all terms in this Agreement have
       the meanings assigned to them in Division 9 (or, absent definition in
       Division 9, in any other Division) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as
       those meanings may be amended, revised or replaced from time to time.
       "Uniform Commercial Code', means the California Uniform Commercial Code,
       as amended.

No single or partial exercise, or delay in the exercise, of any right or power
       under this Agreement, shall preclude other or further exercise of the
       rights and powers under this Agreement. The unenforceability of any
       provision of this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the
       remainder of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
       agreement of Debtor and Bank with respect to the subject matter of this
       Agreement. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be
       effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Debtor and an
       authorized officer of Bank. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
       CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
       CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPALS.

To the extent that any of the Indebtedness is payable upon demand, nothing
       contained in this Agreement shall modify the terms and conditions of that
       Indebtedness nor shall anything contained in this Agreement prevent Bank
       from making demand, without notice and with or without reason, for
       immediate payment of any or all of that Indebtedness at any time(s),
       whether or not an Event of Default has occurred.

Debtor represents and warrants that:

       Debtor's exact name is the name set forth in this Agreement. Debtor
               further represents and warrants the following and agrees that
               Debtor is, and at all times shall be a registered organization
               which is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware; and

       Except as to Inventory which in the ordinary course of Debtor's business
               is in the hands of Debtor's agents or direct sales
               representatives or held for use by hospitals, the Collateral is
               located and shall be maintained only at the locations identified
               in Schedule A attached hereto. Debtor, from time to time, at the
               request of Bank will provide Bank with an updated list of its
               agents and direct sales representatives.

This Agreement shall be terminated only by the authorized filing of a
       termination statement in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
       Uniform Commercial Code, but the obligations contained in Section 2.13 of
       this Agreement shall survive termination.



       Debtor agrees to reimburse the Bank upon demand for any and all costs and
               expenses (including, without limit, court costs, legal expenses
               and reasonable attorneys, fees, whether inside or outside counsel
               is used, whether or not suit is instituted and, if suit is
               instituted, whether at the trial court level, appellate level `
               in a bankruptcy, probate or administrative proceeding or
               otherwise) incurred in enforcing or attempting to enforce this
               Agreement or in exercising or attempting to exercise any right or
               remedy under this Agreement or incurred in any other matter or
               proceeding relating to this Security Agreement.

       As used herein, "Loan Agreement" means that certain Business Loan
               Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, between Debtor and
               Bank, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time in
               accordance with its terms. All initially capitalized terms used
               but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in
               the Loan Agreement.

DEBTOR AND BANK ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL
       ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED. EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING
       HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY
       AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL
       BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR
       ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
       INDEBTEDNESS.

                    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT

     This Intellectual Property Security Agreement (the "Agreement") is made as
of June 14, 2002, by and between INTERPORE INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Grantor"), and COMERICA BANK-CALIFORNIA, a California banking
corporation ("Secured Party").

                                    RECITALS

     A.   Secured Party has agreed to lend to Grantor certain funds (the "Loan")
and Grantor desires to borrow such funds from Secured Party pursuant to the
terms of a Master Revolving Note and a Business Loan Agreement, each dated of
even date herewith (the "Loan Documents"). All capitalized terms used herein
without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan
Documents.

     B.   In order to induce Secured Party to make the Loan, Grantor has agreed
to assign certain intangible property to Secured Party for purposes of securing
the obligations of Grantor to Secured Party.

     NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

     28.  Grant of Security Interest. As collateral security for the prompt and
complete payment and performance of all of Grantor's present or future
indebtedness, obligations and liabilities to Secured Party, Grantor hereby
grants a security interest and mortgage to Secured Party, as security, in and to
Grantor's entire right, title and interest in, to and under the following (all
of which shall collectively be called the "Collateral"):

          (a)  Any and all copyright rights, copyright applications, copyright
registrations and like protections in each work or authorship and derivative
work thereof, whether published or unpublished and whether or not the same also
constitutes a trade secret, now or hereafter existing, created, acquired or
held, including without limitation those set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto
(collectively, the "Copyrights");

          (b)  Any and all trade secrets, and any and all intellectual property
rights in computer software and computer software products now or hereafter
existing, created, acquired or held;

          (c)  Any and all design rights which may be available to Grantor now
or hereafter existing, created, acquired or held;

          (d)  All patents, patent applications and like protections including,
without limitation, improvements, divisions, continuations, renewals, reissues,
extensions and



continuations-in-part of the same, including without limitation the patents and
patent applications set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (collectively, the
"Patents");

          (e)  Any trademark and servicemark rights, whether registered or not,
applications to register and registrations of the same and like protections, and
the entire goodwill of the business of Grantor connected with and symbolized by
such trademarks, including without limitation those set forth on Exhibit C
attached hereto (collectively, the "Trademarks");

          (f)  Any and all claims for damages by way of past, present and future
infringement of any of the rights included above, with the right, but not the
obligation, to sue for and collect such damages for said use or infringement of
the intellectual property rights identified above;

          (g)  All licenses or other rights to use any of the Copyrights,
Patents or Trademarks, and all license fees and royalties arising from such use
to the extent permitted by such license or rights; and

          (h)  All amendments, extensions, renewals and extensions of any of the
Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents; and

          (i)  All proceeds and products of the foregoing, including without
limitation all payments under insurance or any indemnity or warranty payable in
respect of any of the foregoing.

     29.  Authorization and Request. Grantor authorizes and requests that the
Register of Copyrights and the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks record
this security agreement.

     30.  Covenants and Warranties. Grantor represents, warrants, covenants and
agrees as follows:

          (a)  Grantor is now the sole owner of the Collateral, except for
licenses granted by Grantor to its customers in the ordinary course of business;

          (b)  Performance of this Agreement does not conflict with or result in
a breach of any material agreement to which Grantor is party or by which Grantor
is bound, except to the extent that certain intellectual property agreements
prohibit the assignment of the rights thereunder to a third party without the
licensor's or other party's consent and this Agreement constitutes an
assignment;

          (c)  During the term of this Agreement, Grantor will not transfer or
otherwise encumber any interest in the Collateral, except for licenses granted
by Grantor in the ordinary course of business, or as set forth in this
Agreement;

          (d)  Each of the Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the
Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no
claim has been made that any part of the Collateral violates the rights of any
third party;




          (e)  Grantor shall deliver to Secured Party within thirty (30) days of
the last day of each fiscal year, a report signed by Grantor, in form reasonably
acceptable to Secured Party, listing any applications or registrations that
Grantor has made or filed in respect of any patents, copyrights or trademarks
and the status of any outstanding applications or registrations. Grantor shall
promptly advise Secured Party of any material change in the composition of the
Collateral, including but not limited to any subsequent ownership right of the
Grantor in or to any Trademark, Patent or Copyright not specified in this
Agreement;

          (f)  Grantor shall (i) protect, defend and maintain the validity and
enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights, and (ii) not allow any
Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the
public without the written consent of Secured Party, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, unless Grantor determines that reasonable business
practices suggest that abandonment is appropriate;

          (g)  Grantor shall, from time to time, execute and file such other
instruments, and take such further actions as Secured Party may reasonably
request from time to time to perfect or continue the perfection of Secured
Party's interest in the Collateral;

          (h)  This Agreement creates, and in the case of after acquired
Collateral, this Agreement will create at the time Grantor first has rights in
such after acquired Collateral, in favor of Secured Party a valid and perfected
first priority security interest in the Collateral in the United States, subject
only to Permitted Liens, securing the payment and performance of the obligations
evidenced by the Loan Documents upon making the filings referred to in clause
(i) below;

          (i)  Except for, and upon, the filing of a Financing Statement (Form
UCC-1) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the filing with
the United States Patent and Trademark office with respect to the Patents and
Trademarks and the Register of Copyrights with respect to the Copyrights
necessary to perfect the security interests created hereunder, and, except as
has been already made or obtained, no authorization, approval or other action
by, and no notice to or filing with, any U.S. governmental authority or U.S.
regulatory body is required either (i) for the grant by Grantor of the security
interest granted hereby or for the execution, delivery or performance of this
Agreement by Grantor in the U.S. or (ii) for the perfection in the United States
or the exercise by Secured Party of its rights and remedies hereunder;

          (j)  All information heretofore, herein or hereafter supplied to
Secured Party by or on behalf of Grantor with respect to the Collateral is
accurate and complete in all material respects.

          (k)  Grantor shall not enter into any agreement that would materially
impair or conflict with Grantor's obligations hereunder without Secured Party's
prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Grantor
shall not permit the inclusion in any material contract to which it becomes a
party of any provisions that could or might in any way prevent the creation of a
security interest in Grantor's rights and interests in any property included
within the definition of the Collateral acquired under such contracts, except
that certain contracts may contain anti-assignment provisions that could in
effect prohibit the creation of a



security interest in such contracts if Grantor is required, in its commercially
reasonable judgment to accept such provisions; and

         (l) Upon any executive officer of Grantor obtaining knowledge thereof,
Grantor will promptly notify Secured Party in writing of any event that
materially adversely affects the value of any of the Collateral, the ability of
Grantor to dispose of any Collateral or the rights and remedies of Secured Party
in relation thereto, including the levy of any legal process against any of the
Collateral.

     31. Secured Party's Rights. Secured Party shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to take, at Grantor's sole expense, any actions that Grantor is
required under this Agreement to take but which Grantor fails to take, after
fifteen (15) days' notice to Grantor. Grantor shall reimburse and indemnify
Secured Party for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the reasonable
exercise of its rights under this section 4.

     32. Inspection Rights. Grantor hereby grants to Secured Party and its
employees, representatives and agents the right to visit, during reasonable
hours upon prior reasonable written notice to Grantor, any of Grantor's plants
and facilities that manufacture, install or store products (or that have done so
during the prior six-month period) that are sold utilizing any of the
Collateral, and to inspect the products and quality control records relating
thereto upon reasonable notice to Grantor and as often as may be reasonably
requested.

     33. Further Assurances; Attorney in Fact.

         (a) On a continuing basis, Grantor will make, execute, acknowledge and
deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and recording places in the
United States, all such instruments, including, appropriate financing and
continuation statements and collateral agreements and filings with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the Register of Copyrights, and take all
such action as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as requested
by Secured Party, to perfect Secured Party's security interest in all
Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks and otherwise to carry out the intent and
purposes of this Agreement, or for assuring and confirming to Secured Party the
grant or perfection of a security interest in all Collateral.

         (b) Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as Grantor's
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Grantor and in
the name of Grantor, from time to time upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default in Secured Party's discretion, to take any
action and to execute any instrument which Secured Party may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:

             (1) To modify, in its sole discretion, this Agreement without
first obtaining Grantor's approval of or signature to such modification by
amending Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C, hereof, as appropriate, to include
reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or
Trademarks acquired by Grantor after the execution hereof or to delete any
reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or
Trademarks in which Grantor no longer has or claims any right, title or
interest;



               (2) 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 Grantor where permitted by law; and

               (3) To transfer the Collateral into the name of Secured Party or
a third party to the extent permitted under the California Uniform Commercial
Code.

     34. Events of Default. The occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined
in the Loan Documents) shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement.

     35. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Secured Party shall have the right to exercise all the remedies of a
secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code, including without
limitation the right to require Grantor to assemble the Collateral and any
tangible property in which Secured Party has a security interest and to make it
available to Secured Party at a place designated by Secured Party. Secured Party
shall have a nonexclusive, royalty free license to use the Copyrights, Patents
and Trademarks to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Secured Party to
exercise its rights and remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.
Grantor will pay any expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by
Secured Party in connection with the exercise of any of Secured Party's rights
hereunder, including without limitation any expense incurred in disposing of the
Collateral. All of Secured Party's rights and remedies with respect to the
Collateral shall be cumulative.

     36. Indemnity. Grantor agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Secured Party and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all
obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other
party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and
(b) all losses or expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Secured
Party as a result of or in any way arising out of, following or consequential to
transactions between Secured Party and Grantor, whether under this Agreement or
otherwise (including without limitation attorneys fees and expenses), except for
losses arising from or out of Secured Party's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

     37. Course of Dealing. No course of dealing, nor any failure to exercise,
nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof.

     38. Attorneys Fees. If any action relating to this Agreement is brought by
either party hereto against the other party, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements.

     39. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument
signed by both parties hereto.

     40. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together shall constitute the same instrument.

     41. California Law and Jurisdiction; Jury Waiver. This Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard for choice of
law provisions. Grantor and



Secured Party consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal
court located in Santa Clara County, California. GRANTOR AND SECURED PARTY EACH
WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION
BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THIS AGREEMENT, OR



ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT
CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS.
