financial statements of Borrowers delivered to Agent before the Closing Date and
using the same inventory valuation method as used in such financial statements,

Section 10.3 is amended in a manner satisfactory to Required Lenders to take
into account the effects of the change.

1.3. Uniform Commercial Code. As used herein, the following terms are defined in
accordance with the UCC in effect in the State of California from time to time:

1.4. Certain Matters of Construction. The terms “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder”
and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to
any particular section, paragraph or subdivision. Any pronoun used shall be
deemed to cover all genders. In the computation of periods of time from a
specified date to a later specified date, “from” means “from and including”, and
“to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”. The terms “including” and
“include” shall mean “including, without limitation” and, for purposes of each
Loan Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be
applicable to limit any provision. Section titles appear as a matter of
convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any Loan Document.
All references to (a) laws or statutes include all related rules, regulations,
interpretations, amendments and successor provisions; (b) any document,
instrument or agreement include any amendments, waivers and other modifications,
extensions or renewals (to the extent permitted by the Loan Documents); (c) any
section mean, unless the context otherwise requires, a section of this
Agreement; (d) any exhibits or schedules mean, unless the context otherwise
requires, exhibits and schedules attached hereto, which are hereby incorporated
by reference; (e) any Person include successors and assigns; (f) time of day
mean time of day at Agent’s notice address under Section 14.3.1; or (g) unless
otherwise specified herein, discretion of Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender mean
the sole and absolute discretion of such Person. All calculations of Value,
fundings of Loans, issuances of Letters of Credit and payments of Obligations
shall be in Dollars and, unless the context otherwise requires, all
determinations (including calculations of Borrowing Base and financial
covenants) made from time to time under the Loan Documents shall be made in
light of the circumstances existing at such time. Borrowing Base calculations
shall be consistent with historical methods of valuation and calculation, and
otherwise satisfactory to Agent (and not necessarily calculated in accordance
with GAAP). Borrowers shall have the burden of establishing any alleged
negligence, misconduct or lack of good faith by Agent, Issuing Bank or any
Lender under any Loan Documents. No provision of any Loan Documents shall be
construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to
have, drafted the provision. Whenever the phrase “to the best of Borrowers’
knowledge” or words of similar import are used in any Loan Documents, it means
actual knowledge of a Senior Officer, or knowledge that a Senior Officer would
have obtained if he or she had engaged in good faith and diligent performance of
his or her duties, including reasonably specific inquiries of employees or
agents and reasonable attempts to ascertain the matter to which such phrase
relates. Any Event of Default shall be deemed to be continuing until waived in
writing by Agent and the requisite Lenders.

      SECTION 2.CREDIT FACILITIES

2.1.
  Revolver Commitment.
 
   

2.1.1. Revolver Loans. Each Lender agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to
its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans
to Borrowers from time to time through the Commitment Termination Date. The
Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event
shall Lenders have any obligation to honor a request for a Revolver Loan if the
unpaid balance of Revolver Loans outstanding at such time (including the
requested Loan) would exceed the Borrowing Base.

2.1.2. Evidence of Revolver Loans. The Revolver Loans made by each Lender and
interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and such
Lender. At the request of any Lender, Borrowers shall deliver a Revolver Loan
note to such Lender in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such Lender.

2.1.3. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of Revolver Loans shall be used by
Borrowers solely (a) to satisfy existing Debt; (b) to pay fees and transaction
expenses associated with the closing of this credit facility; (c) to pay
Obligations in accordance with this Agreement; and (d) for working capital and
other lawful corporate purposes of Borrowers.

2.1.4. Voluntary Increase and Termination of Revolver Commitments.

(a) The Borrower Agent may, on not less than ten (10) days prior written notice
to the Agent irrevocably request that the Revolver Commitment be increased to an
aggregate Revolver Commitment amount of $40,000,000. Such notice shall set forth
the date on which such additional Revolver Commitment is requested to become
effective. Any such increase will be effective subject to (i) receipt by Agent
of a certificate of an executive officer of Borrower Agent certifying that no
Default or Event of Default is continuing as of the delivery of such notice or
the effective date of the requested increase in the Revolver Commitment and
(ii) the payment by Borrowers of all fees and expenses in connection with the
increase in the Revolver Commitments (including the applicable fees set forth in
the Fee Letter). Any such increase will increase each Lender’s Revolver
Commitment on a Pro Rata basis and Agent is hereby authorized to unilaterally
amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect each such increase without the further consent of
Borrowers or any Lender.

(b) The Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the Revolver Termination Date,
unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Upon at least
30 days prior written notice to Agent at any time after the first Loan Year,
Borrowers may, at their option, terminate the Revolver Commitments and this
credit facility. Any notice of termination given by Borrowers shall be
irrevocable. On the termination date, Borrowers shall make Full Payment of all
Obligations.

2.1.5. Overadvances. If the aggregate Revolver Loans exceed the Borrowing Base
(“Overadvance”) or the aggregate Revolver Commitments at any time, the excess
amount shall be payable by Borrowers on demand by Agent, but all such Revolver
Loans shall nevertheless constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and
entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. Unless its authority has been
revoked in writing by Required Lenders, Agent may require Lenders to honor
requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring Borrowers to cure
an Overadvance, (a) when no other Event of Default is known to Agent, as long as
(i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days (and no
Overadvance may exist for at least five consecutive days thereafter before
further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the Overadvance is not known
by Agent to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base; and (b) regardless of whether an
Event of Default exists, if Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known
by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance
(i) is not increased by more than an amount equal to 10% of the aggregate
Revolver Commitments, and (ii) does not continue for more than 30 consecutive
days. In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause the
outstanding Revolver Loans and LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Revolver
Commitments. Any funding of an Overadvance Loan or sufferance of an Overadvance
shall not constitute a waiver by Agent or Lenders of the Event of Default caused
thereby. In no event shall any Borrower or other Obligor be deemed a beneficiary
of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

2.1.6. Protective Advances. Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion,
reasonably exercised, at any time that any conditions in Section 6 are not
satisfied, and without regard to the aggregate Commitments, to make Base Rate
Revolver Loans (“Protective Advances”) (a) up to an aggregate an amount
outstanding at any time equal to 10% of the aggregate Revolver Commitments, if
Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral,
or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations; or (b) to pay any
other amounts chargeable to Obligors under any Loan Documents, including costs,
fees and expenses. Each Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a
Pro Rata basis. Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authority to
make further Protective Advances by written notice to Agent. Absent such
revocation, Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is
appropriate shall be conclusive.

2.2. Intentionally Omitted.

2.3. Letter of Credit Facility.

2.3.1. Issuance of Letters of Credit. Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of
Credit from time to time until 30 days prior to the Revolver Termination Date
(or until the Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth
herein, including the following:

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any
Letter of Credit is conditioned upon Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application
with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other
instruments and agreements as Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance
of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. Issuing Bank shall have no
obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) Issuing Bank receives a LC
Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested
date of issuance; and (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied. If Issuing Bank
receives written notice from a Lender at least five Business Days before
issuance of a Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied,
Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested Letter of Credit
(or any other) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until
Required Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement.
Prior to receipt of any such notice, Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by a Borrower only (i) to support
obligations of such Borrower incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; or
(ii) for other purposes as Agent and Lenders may approve from time to time in
writing. The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as
the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC
Application shall be required at the discretion of Issuing Bank.

(c) Borrowers assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter
of Credit by the beneficiary. In connection with issuance of any Letter of
Credit, none of Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for the
existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery
of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or
variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or
delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity,
sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any
endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of
goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods
referred to in a Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions,
delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any
goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor
and a Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or
delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail,
telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the
misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof;
or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Bank,
Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority.
The rights and remedies of Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be
cumulative. Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of
each beneficiary whose claims against Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of
any Letter of Credit.

(d) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or
remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, Issuing Bank shall be
entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification,
documentation or communication in whatever form reasonably believed by Issuing
Bank to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper
Person. Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and
other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and
shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken
in reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. Issuing Bank may employ
agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters
of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or
misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

2.3.2. Reimbursement; Participations.

(a) If Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit on
any day (“Reimbursement Date”), Borrowers shall pay to Issuing Bank, on the same
day if notified Borrower Agent is notified thereof by 12:00 noon (Pacific time)
on such date, or on the following Business Day if notified thereof after 12:00
noon (Pacific time), the amount paid by Issuing Bank under such Letter of
Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolver Loans
from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers. The obligation of
Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of
Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and
shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right
that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not
Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, Borrowers shall be deemed to have
requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolver Loans in an amount necessary to pay
all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to
fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have
terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in
Section 6 are satisfied.

(b) Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have
irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Issuing Bank, without recourse or
warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all LC Obligations
relating to the Letter of Credit. If Issuing Bank makes any payment under a
Letter of Credit and Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the
Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and each Lender shall
promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the
benefit of Issuing Bank, the Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon
request by a Lender, Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit
and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(c) The obligation of each Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of
Issuing Bank in connection with Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any
counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made
in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any
lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft,
certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been
determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or
any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the
existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any
Obligations. Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or
delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any
obligations under any LC Documents. Issuing Bank does not make to Lenders any
express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the
Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor. Issuing Bank shall not be responsible
to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or
warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness,
effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness,
enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the
perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition,
results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any
Obligor.

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for
any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents
except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. Issuing
Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if Issuing Bank refrains from
any action under any Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written
instructions from Required Lenders.

2.3.3. Cash Collateral. If any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or
payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of
Default exists, (b) that Availability is less than zero, (c) after the
Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within 20 Business Days prior to the
Revolver Termination Date, then Borrowers shall, at Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s
request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding Letters of
Credit and pay to Issuing Bank the amount of all other LC Obligations. If
Borrowers fail to provide Cash Collateral as required herein, Lenders may (and
shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as Revolver Loans, the amount of the
Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an
Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).

              SECTION 3.INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1.
  Interest.  

 
         

 
    3.1.1.     Rates and Payment of Interest.
 
           

(a) The Obligations shall bear interest (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base
Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a LIBOR
Loan, at LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin;
and (iii) if any other Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by law,
interest not paid when due), at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus
the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Revolver Loans. Interest shall accrue from
the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until
paid by Borrowers. If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day’s interest
shall accrue.

(b) During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, or during any
other Event of Default if Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so
elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or
after any judgment). Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to
Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that
the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate Agent and
Lenders for such additional costs and expenses.

(c) Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) on
the first day of each month and, for any LIBOR Loan, the last day of its
Interest Period; (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal
amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on the Commitment Termination Date.
Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided
in the Loan Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and
payable on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the
Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

3.1.2. Application of LIBOR to Outstanding Loans.

(a) Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of the Base Rate Loans to,
or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR
Loan. During any Default or Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the
direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or
continued as a LIBOR Loan.

(b) Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans,
Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later
than 11:00 a.m. (Pacific time) at least three Business Days before the requested
conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent
shall notify each Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall
be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or
continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day),
and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if
not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any
LIBOR Loans, Borrowers shall have failed to deliver a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, they shall be deemed to have elected to convert such
Loans into Base Rate Loans.

3.1.3. Interest Periods. In connection with the making, conversion or
continuation of any LIBOR Loans, Borrowers shall select an interest period
(“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be 30, 60, or 90 days;
provided, however, that:

(a) the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued
as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan, and shall expire on the numerically
corresponding day in the calendar month at its end;

(b) if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no
corresponding day in the calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day
falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall
expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would
expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next
Business Day; and

(c) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Revolver Termination Date.

3.1.4. Interest Rate Not Ascertainable. If Agent shall determine that on any
date for determining LIBOR, due to any circumstance affecting the London
interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such
rate on the basis provided herein, then Agent shall immediately notify Borrowers
of such determination. Until Agent notifies Borrowers that such circumstance no
longer exists, the obligation of Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended,
and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans.

3.2. Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Agent the fees described in the Fee Letter.

3.3. Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection. All interest, as well as
fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for
the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days. Each determination by
Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final,
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall
be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or
proration. All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and
are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the
use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate as to amounts payable by
Borrowers under Sections 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.9, submitted to Borrower Agent
by Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrowers shall pay such
amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the
certificate.

3.4. Reimbursement Obligations. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent for all
Extraordinary Expenses. Borrowers shall also reimburse Agent for all reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other
fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and
preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification
thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan
Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to
perfect or maintain priority of Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any
insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral; and (c) subject to the
limits of Section 10.1.1(b), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to
any Obligor or Collateral, whether prepared by Agent’s personnel or a third
party. All legal, accounting and consulting fees shall be charged to Borrowers
by Agent’s professionals at their full hourly rates, regardless of any reduced
or alternative fee billing arrangements that Agent, any Lender or any of their
Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other
transaction. If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial
statements or a Compliance Certificate), it is reasonably determined that a
higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually
applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively upon Agent’s
concurrent notice to Borrower (unless such notice could reasonably be expected
to violate the automatic stay or the functional equivalent in any Insolvency
Proceeding, in which case no such notice shall be required) and Borrowers shall
immediately pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, an amount equal
to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have
accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid. All amounts
payable by Borrowers under this Section shall be due on demand.

3.5. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR
Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, or any
Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of
such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London
interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Agent, any
obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base
Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Agent
that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon
delivery of such notice, Borrowers shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all
LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the
Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such
LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion,
Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6. Inability to Determine Rates. If Required Lenders notify Agent for any
reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or
continuation of, a LIBOR Loan that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to
banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and
Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
determining LIBOR for the requested Interest Period, or (c) LIBOR for the
requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to
such Lenders of funding such Loan, then Agent will promptly so notify Borrower
Agent and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain
LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until Agent (upon instruction by Required
Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower Agent may
revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of
a LIBOR Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a
Base Rate Loan.

              3.7.   Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.      
 
    3.7.1.     Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:
 
           

(a) impose modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory
loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with
or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender
(except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR) or Issuing Bank;

(b) subject any Lender or Issuing Bank to any Tax with respect to any Loan, Loan
Document, Letter of Credit or participation in LC Obligations, or change the
basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or Issuing Bank in respect thereof
(except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.9 and the
imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such
Lender or Issuing Bank); or

(c) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any
other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of
Credit or participation in LC Obligations;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any LIBOR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such
Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating
in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its
obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon
request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, Borrowers will pay to such Lender or
Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.

3.7.2. Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of
such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any,
regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s or holding company’s capital as a
consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s Commitments,
Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations, to a level below
that which such Lender, Issuing Bank or holding company could have achieved but
for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s
and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time
to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company
for any such reduction suffered.

3.7.3. Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank
to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
its right to demand such compensation, but Borrowers shall not be required to
compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank for any increased costs incurred or
reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that the Lender or
Issuing Bank notifies Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention
to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof).

3.8. Mitigation. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests
compensation under Section 3.7, or if Borrowers are required to pay additional
amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its
rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment
(a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable in the
future, as applicable; and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to
any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to
such Lender. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9. Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any
Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan does not occur
on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or
conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest
Period, or (c) Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder,
then Borrowers shall pay Agent’s reasonable and customary administrative charge
and to each Lender all losses and expenses that it sustains as a consequence
thereof, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising
from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate
deposits of matching funds. Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar
deposits in the London interbank market or any other offshore Dollar market to
fund any LIBOR Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if
each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Loans.

3.10. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan
Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted
by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”). If Agent or any Lender shall receive
interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall
be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted
for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such
Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any
payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than
interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and
(c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total
amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations
hereunder.

SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1. Manner of Borrowing and Funding Revolver Loans. 4.1.1. Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever Borrowers desire funding of a Borrowing of Revolver Loans, Borrower
Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Such notice must be received by
Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (Pacific time) (i) on the Business Day of the
requested funding date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) at least three
Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans.
Notices received after 11:00 a.m. (Pacific time) shall be deemed received on the
next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall
specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which
must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as Base Rate
Loans or LIBOR Loans, and (D) in the case of LIBOR Loans, the duration of the
applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not
specified).

(b) Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers, the becoming due of
any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including
Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Bank Product Debt)
shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Revolver Loans on the due date, in
the amount of such Obligations. The proceeds of such Revolver Loans shall be
disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation. In addition, Agent may,
at its option, charge such Obligations against any operating, investment or
other account of a Borrower maintained with Agent or any of its Affiliates.

(c) If Borrowers establish a controlled disbursement account with Agent or any
Affiliate of Agent, then the presentation for payment of any check or other item
of payment drawn on such account at a time when there are insufficient funds to
cover it shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Revolver Loans on the
date of such presentation, in the amount of the check and items presented for
payment. The proceeds of such Revolver Loans may be disbursed directly to the
controlled disbursement account or other appropriate account.

4.1.2. Fundings by Lenders. Each Lender shall timely honor its Revolver
Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Revolver Loans
that is properly requested hereunder. Except for Borrowings to be made as
Swingline Loans, Agent shall endeavor to notify Lenders of each Notice of
Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon (Pacific time) on
the proposed funding date for Base Rate Loans or by 3:00 p.m. (Pacific time) at
least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans. Each Lender
shall fund to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account
specified by Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m.
(Pacific time) on the requested funding date, unless Agent’s notice is received
after the times provided above, in which event Lender shall fund its Pro Rata
share by 11:00 a.m. (Pacific time) on the next Business Day. Subject to its
receipt of such amounts from Lenders, Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the
Revolver Loans as directed by Borrower Agent. Unless Agent shall have received
(in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend
to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has
deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse
a corresponding amount to Borrowers. If a Lender’s share of any Borrowing is not
in fact received by Agent, then Borrowers agree to repay to Agent on demand the
amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed
until repaid, at the rate applicable to such Borrowing.

4.1.3. Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a) Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance Swingline Loans to
Borrowers, up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $2,500,000, unless the
funding is specifically required to be made by all Lenders hereunder. Each
Swingline Loan shall constitute a Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that
payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account. The obligation of
Borrowers to repay Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent
and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.

(b) To facilitate administration of the Revolver Loans, Lenders and Agent agree
(which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable
by any Borrower) that settlement among them with respect to Swingline Loans and
other Revolver Loans may take place periodically on a date determined from time
to time by Agent, which shall occur at least once each week. On each settlement
date, settlement shall be made with each Lender in accordance with the
Settlement Report delivered by Agent to Lenders. Between settlement dates, Agent
may in its discretion apply payments on Revolver Loans to Swingline Loans,
regardless of any designation by Borrower or any provision herein to the
contrary. Each Lender’s obligation to make settlements with Agent is absolute
and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or
not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in
Section 6 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a
Borrower or otherwise, any Swingline Loan may not be settled among Lenders
hereunder, then each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro
Rata participation in each unpaid Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount
of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one
Business Day after Agent’s request therefor.

4.1.4. Notices. Each Borrower authorizes Agent and Lenders to extend, convert or
continue Loans, effect selections of interest rates, and transfer funds to or on
behalf of Borrowers based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions. Borrowers
shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to Agent of a Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if it differs
in any material respect from the action taken by Agent or Lenders, the records
of Agent and Lenders shall govern. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any
liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of Agent or any Lender
acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a
person reasonably believed by Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to
give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.

4.2. Defaulting Lender. If a Lender fails to make any payment to Agent that is
required hereunder, Agent may (but shall not be required to), in its discretion,
retain payments that would otherwise be made to such defaulting Lender
hereunder, apply the payments to such Lender’s defaulted obligations or
re-advance the funds to Borrowers in accordance with this Agreement. The failure
of any Lender to fund a Loan or to make a payment in respect of a LC Obligation
shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, and no Lender
shall be responsible for default by another Lender. Lenders and Agent agree
(which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable
by any Borrower) that, solely for purposes of determining a defaulting Lender’s
right to vote on matters relating to the Loan Documents and to share in
payments, fees and Collateral proceeds thereunder, a defaulting Lender shall not
be deemed to be a “Lender” until all its defaulted obligations have been cured.

4.3. Number and Amount of LIBOR Loans; Determination of Rate. For ease of
administration, all LIBOR Revolver Loans having the same length and beginning
date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together, and such Borrowings
shall be allocated among Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. No more than 5 Borrowings
of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans
when made shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, or an increment of
$100,000 in excess thereof. Upon determining LIBOR for any Interest Period
requested by Borrowers, Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers thereof by
telephone or electronically and, if requested by Borrowers, shall confirm any
telephonic notice in writing.

4.4. Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby designates Hypercom U.S.A., Inc. as
its representative and agent (“Borrower Agent”) for all purposes under the Loan
Documents, including requests for Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of
interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery
of Borrowing Base and financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations,
requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan
Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other
dealings with Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender. Borrower Agent hereby accepts
such appointment. Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be
fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any
notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower.
Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower.
Each of Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion,
to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan
Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication,
representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent
shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5. One Obligation. The Loans, LC Obligations and other Obligations shall
constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and (unless otherwise expressly
provided in any Loan Document) shall be secured by Agent’s Lien upon all
Collateral; provided, however, that Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be
a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the
extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.

4.6. Effect of Termination. On the effective date of any termination of the
Commitments, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, and any
Lender may terminate its and its Affiliates’ Bank Products (including, only with
the consent of Agent, any Cash Management Services). All undertakings of
Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall survive any termination, and
Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents until Full Payment of the Obligations.
Notwithstanding Full Payment of the Obligations, Agent shall not be required to
terminate its Liens in any Collateral unless, with respect to any damages Agent
may incur as a result of the dishonor or return of Payment Items applied to
Obligations, Agent receives (a) a written agreement, executed by Borrowers and
any Person whose advances are used in whole or in part to satisfy the
Obligations, indemnifying Agent and Lenders from any such damages; or (b) such
Cash Collateral as Agent, in its discretion, deems necessary to protect against
any such damages. The provisions of Sections 2.3, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5, 5.9,
12, 14.2 and this Section 4.6, and the obligation of each Obligor and Lender
with respect to each indemnity given by it in any Loan Document, shall survive
Full Payment of the Obligations and any release relating to this credit
facility.

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1. General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made in
Dollars and subject to Section 5.9.3 only, without offset, counterclaim or
defense of any kind, free of (and without deduction for) any Taxes, and in
immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon (Pacific time) on the due
date. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day.
If any payment under the Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other
than a Business Day, the due date shall be extended to the next Business Day and
such extension of time shall be included in any computation of interest and
fees. Any payment of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall
be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9. Any prepayment of Loans
shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans; provided,
however, that as long as no Event of Default exists, prepayments of LIBOR Loans
may, at the option of Borrowers and Agent, be held by Agent as Cash Collateral
and applied to such Loans at the end of their Interest Periods.

5.2. Repayment of Revolver Loans. Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in
full on the Revolver Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required
hereunder. Revolver Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or
premium. If any Asset Disposition includes the disposition of Accounts or
Inventory, then Net Proceeds equal to the greater of (a) the net book value of
such Accounts and Inventory, or (b) the reduction in the Borrowing Base upon
giving effect to such disposition, shall be applied to the Revolver Loans.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Overadvance exists,
Borrowers shall, on the sooner of Agent’s demand or the first Business Day after
any Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding Revolver Loans in an
amount sufficient to reduce the principal balance of Revolver Loans to the
Borrowing Base.

5.3. Mandatory Prepayments. Immediately upon the receipt by Borrowers or any of
their Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts, Borrowers shall prepay the
outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of
such Extraordinary Receipts, net of any reasonable expenses incurred in
collecting such Extraordinary Receipts. Immediately upon the issuance or
incurrence by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness (other
than as permitted hereunder, Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal
amount of the Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of the cash proceeds
received in connection with such issuance or incurrence. The provisions of this
Section shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such issuance or
incurrence otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.4. Payment of Other Obligations. Obligations other than Loans, including LC
Obligations and Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers as provided
in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified, on demand.

5.5. Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of Agent or Lenders shall be under any
obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any
Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to Agent,
Issuing Bank or any Lender, or Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises a
right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part
thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by
Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the
Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and
remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

5.6. Post-Default Allocation of Payments.

5.6.1. Allocation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during an
Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from
payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be
allocated as follows:

  (a)   FIRST, to all costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses,
owing to Agent;

  (b)   SECOND, to all amounts owing to Agent on Swingline Loans;

  (c)   THIRD, to all amounts owing to Issuing Bank on LC Obligations and all
Bank Product Debt;

  (d)   FOURTH, to all Obligations constituting fees (excluding amounts relating
to Bank Products);

  (e)   FIFTH, to all Obligations constituting interest (excluding amounts
relating to Bank Products);

  (f)   SIXTH, to provide Cash Collateral for outstanding Letters of Credit; and

  (g)   SEVENTH, to all other Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to each category of Obligations set forth above until
Full Payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient
to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the
Obligations in the category. The allocations set forth in this Section are
solely to determine the rights and priorities of Agent and Lenders as among
themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of
any Obligor. This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any
Borrower.

5.6.2. Erroneous Application. Agent shall not be liable for any application of
amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently
determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other
Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount
from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by
any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.6.3. Conversion of Currencies. If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section
5.6.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, any payments in respect of the
Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are received by Agent or any Lender in
any currency other than Dollars (a “Foreign Currency”) Agent shall convert such
sums from such Foreign Currency into Dollars at a rate of exchange at which, in
accordance with normal banking procedures, Agent could purchase Dollars with
such Foreign Currency on the Business Day preceding such conversion. The
obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to Agent or
Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any
payment in a Foreign Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the
Business Day following receipt by Agent of any sums in a Foreign Currency, Agent
may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Dollars with such
Foreign Currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum
originally due to Agent and Lenders from any Borrower in Dollars, Borrowers
agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify Agent and Lenders against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so
purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Agent or any Lender in such
currency Agent and Lenders agree to return the amount of any excess to Borrowers
(or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction). Nothing herein
shall be deemed to be Agent’s consent to receipt of payments in respect of the
Obligations in any currency other than Dollars.

5.7. Application of Payments. During each Trigger Period, the ledger balance in
the main Dominion Account as of the end of each Business Day shall be applied to
the Obligations. If, as a result of such application, a credit balance exists,
the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers and shall be made
available to Borrowers as long as no Default or Event of Default exists. Each
Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments
or Collateral proceeds during each Trigger Period, and agrees that Agent shall
have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the
Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable, notwithstanding any entry
by Agent in its records.

5.8. Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.8.1. Loan Account. Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and
customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Debt
of Borrowers resulting from each Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit from
time to time. Any failure of Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or
any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of
Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. Agent may maintain a single Loan
Account in the name of Borrower Agent, and each Borrower confirms that such
arrangement shall have no effect on the joint and several character of its
liability for the Obligations.

5.8.2. Entries Binding. Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute
presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information
contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then
such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes
absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies Agent in
writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is
subject to dispute.

5.9. Taxes.

5.9.1. Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by any Obligor on account of
any Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or
withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if an
Obligor shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes
(including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (a) the sum payable shall
be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section)
Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; (b) the Obligor
shall make such deductions; and (c) Borrowers shall timely pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable
Law. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay all Other Taxes
to the relevant Governmental Authorities.

5.9.2. Payment. Borrowers shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse Agent,
Lenders and Issuing Bank, within 10 days after demand (including documentation
with respect to the amounts demanded) therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
paid by Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to any Obligations,
Letters of Credit or Loan Documents, and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (except for such penalties,
interest, and expenses to the extent determined by a final non-appealable order
of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Agent, any Lender, or Issuing Bank), whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the calculation and
amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by a Lender or
Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by a Borrower, Borrower Agent shall deliver to Agent a receipt
issued by the Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence
of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

5.9.3. Refunds. If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines, in its sole
discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to
it by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 5.9, it shall promptly remit such
refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts
paid by Borrowers under this Section 5.9 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) to such Borrower, net of all
out-of-pocket expense of such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and
without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the
request of Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, agrees promptly to return
such refund, plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed on such party
by the relevant Governmental Authority, to such party in the event such party is
required to repay such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority. This
subsection shall not be construed to require any Lender or Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other
Person.

5.10. Foreign Lenders.

5.10.1. Exemption. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which an
Obligor is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction
is a party, with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to
Agent and Borrower Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law or
reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower Agent, such properly completed and
executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments
to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition,
any Lender, if requested by Agent or Borrower Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Agent or
Borrower Agent as will enable Agent and Borrower Agent to determine whether or
not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting
requirements.

5.10.2. Documentation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a
Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, a Foreign Lender
shall deliver to Agent and Borrower Agent (in such number of copies as shall be
requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of
Agent or Borrower Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to
do so), (a) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for
benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (b) duly
completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (c) in the case of a Foreign Lender
claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section
881(c) of the Code, (i) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is
not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a
“10 percent shareholder” of any Obligor within the meaning of section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in
section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (ii) duly completed copies of IRS Form
W-8BEN; or (d) any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax,
duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrowers to determine the withholding or
deduction required to be made.

5.11. Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.

5.11.1. Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and
severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and
Lenders the prompt payment and performance of, all and all agreements under the
Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty Obligations hereunder
constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such
Obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of all Obligations, and
that such Obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and will
not be discharged, impaired, or affected by: (a) the genuineness, validity,
regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or
change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument
or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound, or the
power or authority or lack thereof of any other Obligor to incur its
Obligations; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including
this Section 5.11) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or
indulgence of any kind by Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (c) the
existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve
rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or
the absence of any action, by Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including
the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor;
(e) the payment in full of all of the Obligations at any time or from time to
time, except Full Payment of all Obligations; (f) the existence or non-existence
of any Obligor as a legal entity; (g) any transfer by any Obligor of all or any
part of any Collateral; (h) any statute of limitations affecting the liability
of any other Obligor hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or the
ability of Agent or Lenders to enforce this Agreement, this Section 5.11, or any
other provision of any Loan Document; (i) any right of offset, counterclaim or
defense of any Obligor, including, without limitation, those that have been
waived by the Obligors pursuant to this Section 5.11; (j) any election by Agent
or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of
Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (k) any borrowing or grant of a Lien
by any other Obligor, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (l) the disallowance of any claims of Agent or any
Lender against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under
Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (m) any other action or
circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.11.2. Permitted Actions. Except as otherwise expressly provided by this
Agreement, Agent and Lenders may from time to time, in their sole discretion and
without notice to any Obligor, take any or all of the following actions:
(a) retain or obtain a Liens in any assets of any Obligor or any other Person to
secure any of the Obligations; (b) retain or obtain the primary or secondary
obligation of any obligor or obligors, in addition to the Obligors, with respect
to any of the Obligations; (c) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether
or not longer than the original period), or, with the agreement of the
Borrowers, alter or exchange any of the Obligations; (d) waive, ignore, or
forbear from taking action or otherwise exercising any of its default rights or
remedies with respect to any default by the Obligors under the Loan Documents;
(e) release, waive, or compromise any obligation of the Obligors hereunder or
any obligation of any nature of any other obligor primarily or secondarily
obligated with respect to any of the Obligations; (f) release Agent’s Liens in,
or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for, all or any
part of the Collateral now or hereafter securing any of the Obligations or any
obligation hereunder, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not
longer than the original period) or release, waive, compromise, alter or
exchange any obligations of any nature of any Obligor with respect to any such
property; and (g) demand payment or performance of any of the Obligations from
any Obligor at any time or from time to time, whether or not Agent or any Lender
has exercised any of its rights or remedies with respect to any property
securing any of the Obligations or any obligation hereunder or proceeded against
any other Obligor or other Person primarily or secondarily liable for payment or
performance of any of the Obligations.

5.11.3. Waivers.

(a) Each Obligor expressly waives, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable
Law, and except to the extent otherwise expressly required pursuant to this
Agreement: (i) all rights to revoke its guaranty pursuant to this Section 5.11
at any time; (ii) notice of the acceptance by Agent and Lenders; (iii) notice of
the existence, creation, payment, nonpayment, performance or nonperformance of
all or any of the Obligations; (iv) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor,
protest, notice of protest and all other notices whatsoever with respect to the
payment or performance of the Obligations or the amount thereof or any payment
or performance by the Obligors hereunder; (v) all diligence in collection or
protection of or realization upon the Obligations or any thereof, any obligation
hereunder or any security for or guaranty of any of the foregoing; (vi) any
right to direct or affect the manner or timing of Agent’s enforcement of its
rights or remedies; (vii) any and all defenses that would otherwise arise upon
the occurrence of any event or contingency described in Section 5.11.1 or 5.11.2
hereof or upon the taking of any action by Agent or Lenders permitted hereunder;
(viii) any defense, right of set-off, claim or counterclaim whatsoever and any
and all other rights, benefits, protections and other defenses available to such
Obligor now or at any time hereafter, including under California Civil Code
Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, and California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726, and all successor sections, whether or not
constituting Applicable Law; and (ix) all other principles or provisions of law,
if any, that conflict with the terms of this Section 5.11, including the effect
of any circumstances that may or might constitute a legal or equitable discharge
of a guarantor or surety.

(b) Each Obligor expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the
future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent
or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or
security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a
condition to, proceeding against such Obligor.

(c) Agent and Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies
hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and under Applicable Law as they deem
appropriate, including realization upon Collateral or, if applicable, any Real
Estate by judicial foreclosure or non judicial sale or enforcement, without
affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11. If, in the exercise
of any rights or remedies, Agent or any Lender forfeits any of its rights or
remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Obligor
or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to
“election of remedies” or otherwise, each Obligor consents to such action by
Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if the
action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Obligor might
otherwise have had but for such action.

(d) If Agent bids at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale,
Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations and the amount of such bid
need not be paid by Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations. The
amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person
is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market
value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the
remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the
amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding
that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing
the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise
be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

(e) Each Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of
remedies by the Agent and the Lenders, even though that election of remedies,
such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed
obligation, has destroyed such Obligor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement
against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of
Civil Procedure or otherwise.

(f) Any reference to California code sections shall be deemed to include any
equivalent code provisions under New York law. Without limiting the
applicability of the equivalent code provisions under New York law, the
foregoing references to the California Code of Civil Procedure and the
California Civil Code shall apply if, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 14.13, the laws of the State of California are applied to the Loan
Documents; provided, that the inclusion of such provisions does not affect or
limit in any way the parties’ choice of New York law.

5.11.4. Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability
under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for
which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such
Borrower’s Allocable Amount.

(b) If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations
(other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor
Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or
concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower
would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations
satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s
Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such
Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments
from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such
excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect
immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any
Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such
Borrower under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under
Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent
transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 5.11 shall limit the liability of any
Borrower to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower (including
Loans advanced to any other Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred
to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), LC Obligations relating to Letters of
Credit issued to support such Borrower’s business, and all accrued interest,
fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which
such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder. Agent and
Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition
Loans and Letters of Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing
availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of such
Loans and Letters of Credit to such Borrower.

5.11.5. Joint Enterprise. Each Obligor has requested that Agent and Lenders make
this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to
finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically. Borrowers’ and
Obligors’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and Borrowers and
Obligors believe that consolidation of Borrowers’ credit facility will enhance
the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease the administration of their
relationship with Agent and Lenders, all to the mutual advantage of Borrowers
and Obligors. Borrowers and Obligors acknowledge and agree that Agent’s and
Lenders’ willingness to extend credit to Borrowers and to administer the
Collateral on a combined basis, as set forth herein, is done solely as an
accommodation to Borrowers and Obligors and at Obligors’ request.

5.11.6. Subordination. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably subordinates any claims,
including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any
time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all
Obligations.

necessitates qualification.

(i) Agent shall have received copies of policies or certificates of insurance

Agent’s counsel and made available to Borrowers has been duly-executed and
delivered, and all other items set forth on such Closing Checklist have been
verified or delivered, as applicable, in each case to the satisfaction of Agent.

6.2. Conditions Precedent to All Credit Extensions. Agent, Issuing Bank and
Lenders shall not be required to fund any Loans, arrange for issuance of any
Letters of Credit or grant any other accommodation to or for the benefit of
Borrowers, including the initial funding, unless the following conditions are
satisfied:

(a) No Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of, or result from,
such funding, issuance or grant;

(b) The representations and warranties of each Obligor in the Loan Documents

a Letter of Credit or grant of an accommodation shall constitute a
representation by Borrowers that the foregoing conditions are satisfied on the
date of such request and on the date of such funding, issuance or grant. As an
additional condition to any funding, issuance or grant, Agent shall have
received such other information, documents, instruments and agreements as it

6.3. Limited Waiver of Conditions Precedent. If Agent, Issuing Bank or Lenders
fund any Loans, arrange for issuance of any Letters of Credit or grant any other
accommodation when any conditions precedent are not satisfied (regardless of
whether the lack of satisfaction was known or unknown at the time), it shall not
operate as a waiver of (a) the right of Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders to
insist upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent with respect to any
subsequent funding, issuance or grant; nor (b) any Default or Event of Default
due to such failure of conditions or otherwise.

SECTION 7. COLLATERAL

7.1. Grant of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance of
all Obligations, each Borrower hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of
Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in and Lien upon all personal
Property of such Borrower, including all of the following Property, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, and wherever located:

(a) all Accounts;

(b) all Chattel Paper, including electronic chattel paper;

(c) all Commercial Tort Claims;

(d) all Deposit Accounts;

(e) all Documents;

(f) all Intellectual Property (to the extent related to the manufacture,
distribution or packaging of Inventory or the collection of Accounts) and all
other General Intangibles;

(g) all Instruments;

(h) all Inventory;

(i) all Investment Property;

(j) all Letter-of-Credit Rights;

(k) all Supporting Obligations;

(l) all cash and other monies, whether or not in the possession or under the
control of Agent, a Lender, or a bailee or Affiliate of Agent or a Lender,
including any Cash Collateral;

(m) all accessions to, substitutions for, and all replacements, products, and
cash and non-cash proceeds of the foregoing, including proceeds of and unearned
premiums with respect to insurance policies, and claims against any Person for
loss, damage or destruction of any Collateral; and

(n) all books and records (including customer lists, files, correspondence,
tapes, computer programs, print-outs and computer records) pertaining to the
foregoing;

provided, however that the Collateral shall not include, and Borrowers shall not
be deemed to have granted a security interest in any lease, license, contract,
property rights or agreement to which any Borrower is a party or any of its
rights or interests thereunder to the extent, but only to the extent and for so
long as, the grant of a security interest or lien in such Property would
constitute or result in (1) the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of
the right, title or interest of such Borrower therein or the Property subject
thereto or (2) a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default
under, any such lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement (other
than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to
9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC or other applicable law); provided,
further that immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse, or termination of any
such restriction, the Collateral shall include, and such Borrower shall be
deemed to have granted a security interest in, all such rights and interests as
if such provision had never been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Collateral shall include all Accounts arising under any such licenses,
contracts, or agreements, or intent to use applications, and all rights incident
or appurtenant to any such rights or interests, and the right to receive all
proceeds derived from or in connection with the sale, assignment, or transfer
thereof.

7.2. Lien on Deposit Accounts; Cash Collateral.

7.2.1. Deposit Accounts. To further secure the prompt payment and performance of
all Obligations, each Borrower hereby grants to Agent, and will cause to
Hypercom U.K. to grant, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a continuing
security interest in and Lien upon all amounts credited to any Deposit Account
of such Borrower, including any sums in any blocked or lockbox accounts or in
any accounts into which such sums are swept. Each Borrower authorizes and
directs each bank or other depository to deliver to Agent, on a daily basis
during each Trigger Period, all balances in each Deposit Account maintained by
such Borrower with such depository for application to the Obligations then
outstanding. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints Agent as such Borrower’s
attorney-in-fact to collect such balances to the extent any such delivery is not
so made. The obligations of Hypercom U.K. with respect to cash management and
cash collateral and the proceeds (including insurance proceeds) of Collateral
shall be set forth in one or more separate agreements between Hypercom U.K. and
Agent.

7.2.2. Cash Collateral. Any Cash Collateral may be invested, at Agent’s
discretion, in Cash Equivalents, but Agent shall have no duty to do so,
regardless of any agreement or course of dealing with any Borrower, and shall
have no responsibility for any investment or loss. Each Borrower hereby grants
to Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a security interest in all Cash
Collateral held from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the
Obligations, whether such Cash Collateral is held in a Cash Collateral Account
or elsewhere. Agent may apply Cash Collateral to the payment of any Obligations,
in such order as Agent may elect, as they become due and payable. Each Cash
Collateral Account and all Cash Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and
control of Agent. No Borrower or other Person claiming through or on behalf of
any Borrower shall have any right to any Cash Collateral, until Full Payment of
all Obligations.

7.3. Intentionally Omitted.

7.4. Other Collateral.

7.4.1. Commercial Tort Claims. Borrowers shall promptly notify Agent in writing
if any Borrower has a Commercial Tort Claim (other than, as long as no Default
or Event of Default exists, a Commercial Tort Claim for less than $500,000) and,
upon Agent’s request, shall promptly take such actions as Agent reasonably deems
appropriate to confer upon Agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) a duly
perfected, first priority Lien upon such claim.

7.4.2. Certain After-Acquired Collateral. Borrowers shall promptly notify Agent
in writing if, after the Closing Date, any Borrower obtains any interest in any
Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts, Chattel Paper, Documents,
Instruments, Intellectual Property, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit
Rights and, upon Agent’s request, shall promptly take such actions as Agent
deems appropriate to effect Agent’s duly perfected, first priority Lien upon
such Collateral, including obtaining any appropriate possession, control
agreement or Lien Waiver. If any Collateral is in the possession of a third
party, at Agent’s request, Borrowers shall use appropriate efforts to obtain an
acknowledgment that such third party holds the Collateral for the benefit of
Agent.

7.5. No Assumption of Liability. The Lien on Collateral granted hereunder is
given as security only and shall not subject Agent or any Lender to, or in any
way modify, any obligation or liability of Borrowers relating to any Collateral.

7.6. Further Assurances. Promptly upon Agent’s request, Borrowers shall deliver
such instruments, assignments, title certificates, or other documents or
agreements, and shall take such actions, as Agent deems appropriate under
Applicable Law to evidence or perfect its Lien on any Collateral, or otherwise
to give effect to the intent of this Agreement. Each Borrower authorizes Agent
to file any financing statement that indicates the Collateral of such Borrower,
or words to similar effect, and ratifies any action taken by Agent before the
Closing Date to effect or perfect its Lien on any Collateral.

7.7. Foreign Subsidiary Stock. Notwithstanding Section 7.1, the Collateral shall
not include any stock of any Foreign Subsidiary.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

8.1. Borrowing Base Certificates. By the 15th day of each month, Borrowers shall
deliver to Agent (and Agent shall promptly deliver same to Lenders) a Borrowing
Base Certificate prepared as of the close of business of the previous month, and
at such other times as Agent may request. All calculations of Availability in
any Borrowing Base Certificate shall originally be made by Borrowers and
certified by a Senior Officer; provided that Agent may, in its discretion,
reasonably exercised, from time to time review and adjust any such calculation
(a) to reflect its reasonable estimate of declines in value of any Collateral,
due to collections received in the Dominion Account or otherwise; (b) to adjust
advance rates to reflect changes in dilution, quality, mix and other factors
affecting Collateral; and (c) to the extent the calculation is not made in
accordance with this Agreement or does not accurately reflect the Availability
Reserve or to otherwise reflect changes in the Availability Reserve.

8.2. Administration of Accounts.

8.2.1. Records and Schedules of Accounts. Each Borrower shall keep records of
its Accounts that are accurate and complete in all material respects, including
all payments and collections thereon, and shall submit to Agent sales,
collection, reconciliation and other reports in form reasonably satisfactory to
Agent, on such periodic basis as Agent may request. Each Borrower shall also
provide to Agent, on or before the 15th day of each month, a detailed aged trial
balance of all Accounts as of the end of the preceding month, specifying each
Account’s Account Debtor name and address, amount, invoice date and due date.
Promptly upon request of Agent, Borrowers shall provide Agent with supporting
documentation showing any discount, allowance, credit, authorized return or
dispute, and including such proof of delivery, copies of invoices and invoice
registers, copies of related documents, repayment histories, status reports and
other information as Agent may reasonably request. If Accounts reported on the
most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate as Eligible Accounts in an
aggregate face amount of equal to or greater than 10% of the Borrowing Base
cease to be Eligible Accounts, Borrowers shall notify Agent of such occurrence
promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) after any Senior Officer of
Borrower has knowledge thereof.

8.2.2. Taxes. If an Account of any Borrower includes a charge for any Taxes,
Agent is authorized, in its discretion, to pay the amount thereof to the proper
taxing authority for the account of such Borrower and to charge Borrowers
therefor; provided, however, that neither Agent nor Lenders shall be liable for
any Taxes that may be due from Borrowers or with respect to any Collateral.

8.2.3. Account Verification. Whether or not a Default or Event of Default
exists, Agent shall have the right at any time, in the name of Agent, any
designee of Agent or any Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other
matter relating to any Accounts of Borrowers by mail, telephone or otherwise.
Borrowers shall cooperate fully with Agent in an effort to facilitate and
promptly conclude any such verification process. Agent shall use reasonable
efforts to provide Borrower Agent with confirmation that it has conducted a
verification of Accounts, together with a list of Account Debtors contacted
during such verification, but Agent shall not have any liability to any Obligor
or any other Person for the failure to provide such information.

8.2.4. Maintenance of Dominion Account. Borrowers and Hypercom U.K. shall
maintain Dominion Accounts pursuant to lockbox or other arrangements reasonably
acceptable to Agent. Borrowers and Hypercom U.K. shall each obtain an agreement
(in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent) from each lockbox
servicer and Dominion Account bank with respect to each Borrower and Hypercom
U.K., establishing Agent’s control over and Lien in the lockbox or Dominion
Account, which, in the case of any Borrower, may be exercised by Agent at any
time during each Trigger Period, and in the case of Hypercom U.K. will be
exercised immediately, requiring immediate deposit of all remittances received
in the lockbox to a Dominion Account, and waiving offset rights of such servicer
or bank against any funds in the lockbox or Dominion Account, except offset
rights for customary administrative charges. During each Trigger Period, all
funds deposited into the Dominion Account of Hypercom U.K. from time to time
will be applied periodically to the Obligations; at all other times, Hypercom
U.K. may withdraw amounts from its Dominion Account in accordance with the
depositary agreements covering such deposit account. All Dominion Accounts shall
be maintained with Bank of America. Neither Agent nor Lenders assume any
responsibility to Borrowers or Hypercom U.K. for any lockbox arrangement or
Dominion Account, including any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with
respect to any Payment Items accepted by any bank.

8.2.5. Proceeds of Collateral. Borrowers shall request in writing and otherwise
take all appropriate steps to ensure that all payments on Accounts or otherwise
relating to Collateral are made directly to a Dominion Account (or a lockbox
relating to a Dominion Account). If any Borrower or Subsidiary receives cash or
Payment Items with respect to any Collateral, it shall hold same in trust for
Agent and promptly (not later than the next Business Day) deposit same into a
Dominion Account.

8.3. Administration of Inventory.

8.3.1. Records and Reports of Inventory. Each Borrower shall keep records of its
Inventory that are accurate and complete in all material respects, including
costs and daily withdrawals and additions, and shall submit to Agent inventory
and reconciliation reports in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent, on such
periodic basis as Agent may request. Each Borrower shall conduct periodic cycle
counts consistent with historical practices, and, upon request of Agent at any
time during the continuation of an Event of Default, physical Inventory counts,
and shall provide to Agent a report based on each such inventory count promptly
upon completion thereof, together with such supporting information as Agent may
reasonably request. Agent may participate in and observe each physical or
periodic cycle count.

8.3.2. Returns of Inventory. No Borrower shall return any Inventory to a
supplier, vendor or other Person, whether for cash, credit or otherwise, unless
(a) such return is in the Ordinary Course of Business; (b) no Default, Event of
Default or Overadvance exists or would result therefrom; (c) Agent is promptly
notified if the aggregate Value of all Inventory returned in any month exceeds
$1,000,000; and (d) any payment received by a Borrower for a return is promptly
remitted to Agent for application to the Obligations.

8.3.3. Acquisition, Sale and Maintenance. No Borrower shall acquire or accept
any Inventory on consignment or approval, and shall take all steps to assure
that all Inventory is produced in accordance with Applicable Law, including the
FLSA, in all material respects. No Borrower shall sell any Eligible Inventory on
consignment or approval or any other basis under which the customer may return
or require a Borrower to repurchase such Inventory. If any Borrower sells any
Inventory on consignment or approval or any other basis under which the customer
may return or require a Borrower to repurchase such Inventory (which inventory
will not be Eligible Inventory), Borrowers shall provide Agent evidence that
Borrowers have complied with all requirements of Applicable Law (including the
UCC) to perfect their consignment interest in such consigned Inventory and to
assign its rights therein to Agent as Collateral. Borrowers shall use, store and
maintain all Inventory with reasonable care and caution, in accordance with
applicable standards of any insurance and in conformity with all Applicable Law
in all material respects, and shall make current rent payments (within
applicable grace periods provided for in leases) at all locations where any
Collateral is located.

8.4. Administration of Equipment

8.4.1. Records and Schedules of Equipment. Each Borrower shall keep records of
its Equipment that are accurate and complete in all material respects, including
kind, quality, quantity, cost, acquisitions and dispositions thereof, and shall
submit to Agent, on such periodic basis as Agent may request, a current schedule
thereof, in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Promptly upon request,
Borrowers shall deliver to Agent evidence of their ownership or interests in any
Equipment.

8.4.2. Dispositions of Equipment. No Borrower shall sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of any Equipment, without the prior written consent of Agent, other than
(a) a Permitted Asset Disposition; and (b) replacement of Equipment that is
worn, damaged or obsolete with Equipment of like function and value, if the
replacement Equipment is acquired substantially contemporaneously with such
disposition and is free of Liens.

8.4.3. Condition of Equipment. Borrowers represent that their Equipment is in
good operating condition and repair, and all necessary replacements and repairs
have been made so that the marketability and operating efficiency of the
Equipment is preserved at all times, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Each
Borrower shall ensure that the Equipment is mechanically and structurally sound,
and capable of performing the functions for which it was designed, in accordance
with manufacturer specifications.

8.5. Administration of Deposit Accounts. As of the Closing Date Schedule 8.5
sets forth all Deposit Accounts maintained by Borrowers or Hypercom U.K.,
including all Dominion Accounts. Each Borrower shall take all actions necessary
to establish Agent’s control of each such Deposit Account (other than an account
exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes or employee benefits, or an account
containing not more that $50,000 at any time per account or $100,000 for all
such accounts). Each Borrower shall be the sole account holder of each Deposit
Account and shall not allow any other Person (other than Agent) to have control
over a Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein. Each Borrower shall
promptly notify Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account and, with
the consent of Agent, will amend Schedule 8.5 to reflect same.

8.6. General Provisions.

8.6.1. Location of Collateral. All tangible items of Collateral, other than
Inventory in transit, shall at all times be kept by Borrowers at the business
locations set forth in Schedule 8.6.1, except that Borrowers may (a) make sales
or other dispositions of Collateral in accordance with Section 10.2.6; and
(b) move Collateral to another location in the United States, upon 30 days prior
written notice to Agent.

8.6.2. Insurance of Collateral; Condemnation Proceeds.

(a) Each Borrower and Hypercom U.K. shall maintain insurance with respect to the
Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, public liability, theft, malicious
mischief, flood and other risks, (including without limitation, business
interruption) in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a Best
Rating of at least A7, unless otherwise approved by Agent) reasonably
satisfactory to Agent. All proceeds under each policy shall be payable to Agent.
From time to time upon request, Borrowers shall deliver to Agent the originals
or certified copies of its insurance policies and updated flood plain searches.
Unless Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy shall include satisfactory
endorsements (i) showing Agent as sole loss payee or additional insured, as
appropriate; (ii) requiring 30 days prior written notice to Agent in the event
of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever; and (iii) specifying
that the interest of Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or
neglect of any Borrower or the owner of the Property, nor by the occupation of
the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy. If
any Borrower fails to provide and pay for any insurance, Agent may, at its
option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge Borrowers
therefor. Each Borrower agrees to deliver to Agent, promptly as rendered, copies
of all reports made to insurance companies. While no Event of Default exists,
Borrowers may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the
proceeds thereof (if such proceeds constitute proceeds of insurance covering any
Collateral or business interruption insurance) are delivered to Agent. If an
Event of Default exists, only Agent shall be authorized to settle, adjust and
compromise such claims.

(b) Any proceeds of insurance on Collateral and all business interruption
insurance (but in any event excluding proceeds from workers’ compensation or D&O
insurance) and any awards arising from condemnation of any Collateral shall be
paid to Agent in accordance with Section 5.3. Any such proceeds or awards shall
be applied to payment of the Revolver Loans, and then to any other Obligations
outstanding.

8.6.3. Protection of Collateral. All expenses of protecting, storing,
warehousing, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping any Collateral, all
Taxes payable with respect to any Collateral (including any sale thereof), and
all other payments required to be made by Agent to any Person to realize upon
any Collateral, shall be borne and paid by Borrowers. Agent shall not be liable
or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral, for any loss or
damage thereto (except for reasonable care in its custody while Collateral is in
Agent’s actual possession), for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any
act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency or other Person
whatsoever, but the same shall be at Borrowers’ sole risk.

8.6.4. Defense of Title to Collateral. Each Borrower shall at all times take all
appropriate actions to defend its title to Collateral and Agent’s Liens therein
against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens.

8.7. Power of Attorney. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints Agent (and all Persons designated by Agent) as such Borrower’s true and
lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the purposes provided in this Section.
Agent, or Agent’s designee, may, without notice and in either its or a
Borrower’s name, but at the cost and expense of Borrowers:

(a) Endorse a Borrower’s name on any Payment Item or other proceeds of
Collateral (including proceeds of insurance) that come into Agent’s possession
or control; and

(b) During the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) notify any Account
Debtors of the assignment of their Accounts, demand and enforce payment of
Accounts, by legal proceedings or otherwise, and generally exercise any rights
and remedies with respect to Accounts; (ii) settle, adjust, modify, compromise,
discharge or release any Accounts or other Collateral, or any legal proceedings
brought to collect Accounts or Collateral; (iii) sell or assign any Accounts and
other Collateral upon such terms, for such amounts and at such times as Agent
deems advisable; (iv) take control, in any manner, of any proceeds of
Collateral; (v) prepare, file and sign a Borrower’s name to a proof of claim or
other document in a bankruptcy of an Account Debtor, or to any notice,
assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document; (vi) receive, open and
dispose of mail addressed to a Borrower, and notify postal authorities to change
the address for delivery thereof to such address as Agent may designate;
(vii) endorse any Chattel Paper, Document, Instrument, invoice, freight bill,
bill of lading, or similar document or agreement relating to any Accounts,
Inventory or other Collateral; (viii) use a Borrower’s stationery and sign its
name to verifications of Accounts and notices to Account Debtors; (ix) use the
information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment and
computer hardware and software relating to any Collateral; (x) make and adjust
claims under policies of insurance; (xi) take any action as may be reasonably
necessary in Agent’s determination or appropriate to obtain payment under any
letter of credit or banker’s acceptance for which a Borrower is a beneficiary;
and (xii) take all other actions as Agent deems reasonably appropriate to
fulfill any Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

9.1. General Representations and Warranties. To induce Agent and Lenders to
enter into this Agreement and to make available the Commitments, Loans and
Letters of Credit, each Borrower represents and warrants that:

9.1.1. Organization and Qualification. Each Obligor is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization. Each Borrower is duly qualified, authorized to do business and in
good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where failure to be
so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.2. Power and Authority. Each Obligor is duly authorized to execute, deliver
and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The execution, delivery
and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary
action, and do not (a) require any consent or approval of any holders of Equity
Interests of any Obligor, other than those already obtained; (b) contravene the
Organic Documents of any Obligor; (c) violate any Applicable Law in any material
respect or cause a default under any Material Contract; or (d) result in or
require the imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any Property
of any Obligor.

9.1.3. Enforceability. Each Loan Document is a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

9.1.4. Capital Structure. Schedule 9.1.4 shows, for each Obligor and Subsidiary,
its name, its jurisdiction of organization, its authorized and issued Equity
Interests, the holders of its Equity Interests, and all agreements binding on
such holders with respect to their Equity Interests. Each Obligor has good title
to its Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries, in each case subject only to
Agent’s Lien, and all such Equity Interests are duly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable. There are no outstanding options to purchase, warrants,
subscription rights, agreements to issue or sell, convertible interests, phantom
rights or powers of attorney relating to any Equity Interests of any Obligor or
Subsidiary.

9.1.5. Corporate Names; Locations. During the five years preceding the Closing
Date, except as shown on Schedule 9.1.5, no Obligor has been known as or used
any corporate, fictitious or trade names, has been the surviving corporation of
a merger or combination, or has acquired any substantial part of the assets of
any Person. The chief executive offices and other places of business of Obligors
are shown on Schedule 8.6.1. During the five years preceding the Closing Date,
no Obligor has had any other office or place of business.

9.1.6. Title to Properties; Priority of Liens. Each Obligor and Subsidiary has
good and marketable title to (or valid leasehold interests in) all of its Real
Estate, and good title to all of its personal Property, including all Property
reflected in any financial statements delivered to Agent or Lenders, in each
case for the Obligors free of Liens except Permitted Liens. Each Obligor has
paid and discharged all lawful claims that, if unpaid, could become a Lien on
its Properties, other than Permitted Liens. All Liens of Agent in the Collateral
are duly perfected, first priority Liens, subject only to Permitted Liens.

9.1.7. Accounts. Agent may rely, in determining which Accounts are Eligible
Accounts, on all statements and representations made by Borrowers with respect
thereto. Borrowers warrant, with respect to each Account at the time it is shown
as an Eligible Account in a Borrowing Base Certificate, that:

(a) is not an Ineligible Account;

(b) it is genuine and in all respects what it purports to be, and is not
evidenced by a judgment;

(c) it arises out of a completed, bona fide sale and delivery of goods or
rendition of services in the Ordinary Course of Business, and substantially in
accordance with any purchase order, contract or other document relating thereto;

(d) it is for a sum certain, maturing as stated in the invoice covering such
sale or rendition of services, a copy of which has been furnished or is
available to Agent on request;

(e) it is not subject to any offset, Lien (other than Agent’s Lien), deduction,
defense, dispute, counterclaim or other adverse condition except as arising in
the Ordinary Course of Business and disclosed to Agent; and it is absolutely
owing by the Account Debtor, without contingency in any respect;

(f) no purchase order, agreement, document or Applicable Law validly restricts
assignment of the Account to Agent (regardless of whether, under the UCC, the
restriction is ineffective), and the applicable Borrower is the sole payee or
remittance party shown on the invoice;

(g) no extension, compromise, settlement, modification, credit, deduction or
return has been authorized with respect to the Account, except discounts or
allowances granted in the Ordinary Course of Business for prompt payment that
are reflected on the face of the invoice related thereto and in the reports
submitted to Agent hereunder; and

(h) to the best of Borrowers’ knowledge, (i) there are no facts or circumstances
that are reasonably likely to impair the enforceability or collectibility of
such Account; (ii) the Account Debtor had the capacity to contract when the
Account arose, continues to meet the applicable Borrower’s customary credit
standards, is Solvent, is not contemplating or subject to an Insolvency
Proceeding, and has not failed, or suspended or ceased doing business; and
(iii) there are no proceedings or actions threatened or pending against any
Account Debtor that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the Account Debtor’s financial condition.

9.1.8. Financial Statements. The consolidated and consolidating balance sheets,
and related statements of income, cash flow and shareholder’s equity, of Parent
(including Borrowers and Subsidiaries) that have been and are hereafter
delivered to Agent and Lenders, are prepared in accordance with GAAP (other than
the financial statements of the Subsidiaries of Thales SA to be acquired by
Parent pursuant to the Thales Transaction prior to the conversion of such
financial statements by Parent to GAAP), and fairly present in all material
respects the financial positions and results of operations of Parent, Borrowers
and Subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods indicated (subject to, in the
case of unaudited financial statements, the absence of footnotes and normal year
end adjustments). All projections delivered from time to time to Agent and
Lenders have been prepared in good faith, based on reasonable assumptions in
light of the circumstances at such time. Since September 30, 2007, there has
been no change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of Parent, any Borrower
or any Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. No financial statement delivered to Agent or Lenders at any time
contains any untrue statement of a material fact, nor fails to disclose any
material fact necessary to make such statement not materially misleading. Each
of Parent, each Borrower and each Subsidiary is Solvent on a consolidated basis.

9.1.9. Surety Obligations. No Obligor or Subsidiary is obligated as surety or
indemnitor under any bond or other contract that assures payment or performance
of any obligation of any Person, except as permitted hereunder.

9.1.10. Taxes. Each Obligor and Subsidiary has filed all federal, state and
material local tax returns and other federal, state, and material local reports
that it is required by law to file, and has paid, or made provision for the
payment of, all federal, state, and material local Taxes upon it, its income and
its Properties that are due and payable, except to the extent being Properly
Contested. The provision for Taxes on the books of each Obligor and Subsidiary
is adequate for all years not closed by applicable statutes, and for its current
Fiscal Year.

9.1.11. Brokers. There are no brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or investment
banking fees payable in connection with any transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents.

9.1.12. Intellectual Property. Each Obligor owns or has the lawful right to use
all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business except as
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, without
conflict with any rights of others. There is no pending or, to any Borrower’s
knowledge, threatened Intellectual Property Claim with respect to any Obligor or
any Property of any Obligor (including any Intellectual Property). As of the
date hereof, except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.12, no Obligor pays or owes any
Royalty or other compensation to any Person with respect to any Intellectual
Property. All Intellectual Property owned, used or licensed by, or otherwise
subject to any interests of, any Obligor or Subsidiary is shown on
Schedule 9.1.12 (as such Schedule will be updated from time to time by Borrowers
upon written request of Agent and upon delivery of each Fiscal Year-end
Compliance Certificate). Each Borrower shall promptly notify Agent of Royalties
payable by any Obligor or any additional material Intellectual Property acquired
by any Obligor and, with the consent of Agent, will amend Schedule 9.1.12 to
reflect same.

9.1.13. Governmental Approvals. Each Obligor and Subsidiary has, is in
compliance in each material respects with, and is in good standing with respect
to, all Governmental Approvals necessary to conduct its business and to own,
lease and operate its Properties. All necessary import, export or other
licenses, permits or certificates for the import or handling of any goods or
other Collateral have been procured and are in effect, and Obligors and
Subsidiaries have complied with all foreign and domestic laws with respect to
the shipment and importation of any goods or Collateral, except where
noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

9.1.14. Compliance with Laws. Each Obligor and Subsidiary has duly complied, and
its Properties and business operations are in compliance, in all material
respects with all Applicable Law, except where noncompliance could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There have been no
citations, notices or orders of material noncompliance issued to any Obligor or
Subsidiary under any Applicable Law. No Inventory has been produced in violation
of the FLSA in any material respect.

9.1.15. Compliance with Environmental Laws. Except as disclosed on Schedule
9.1.15, no Obligor’s or Subsidiary’s past (to the best of Borrower’s knowledge)
or present operations, Real Estate or other Properties are subject to any
federal, state or local investigation to determine whether any remedial action
is needed to address any environmental pollution, hazardous material or
environmental clean-up that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. No Obligor or Subsidiary has received any Environmental Notice.
No Obligor or Subsidiary has any material contingent liability with respect to
any Environmental Release, environmental pollution or hazardous material on any
Real Estate now or previously owned, leased or operated by it.

9.1.16. Burdensome Contracts. No Obligor or Subsidiary is a party or subject to
any contract, agreement or charter restriction that could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Obligor or Subsidiary is party or subject
to any Restrictive Agreement, except as shown on Schedule 9.1.16, none of which
prohibit the execution or delivery of any Loan Documents by an Obligor nor the
performance by an Obligor of any obligations thereunder.

9.1.17. Litigation. Except as shown on Schedule 9.1.17, there are no proceedings
or investigations pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against
any Obligor or Subsidiary, or any of their businesses, operations, Properties,
prospects or conditions, that (a) relate to any Loan Documents or transactions
contemplated thereby; or (b) could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect if determined adversely to any Obligor or Subsidiary. Each
Obligor or Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with respect to
each order, injunction or judgment of any Governmental Authority.

9.1.18. No Defaults. No event or circumstance has occurred or exists that
constitutes a Default or Event of Default. No Obligor or Subsidiary is in
default, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that with the
passage of time or giving of notice would constitute a default, under any
Material Contract or in the payment of any Borrowed Money or give rise to the
right of any party (other than an Obligor or Subsidiary) to terminate a Material
Contract prior to its scheduled termination date (or upon stated notice periods
for terminations at will not arising from a default).

9.1.19. ERISA. Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.19:

(a) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable
provisions of ERISA, the Code, and other federal and state laws. Each Plan that
is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable
determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is
currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the knowledge
of Borrowers, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of,
such qualification. Each Obligor and ERISA Affiliate has made all required
contributions to each Plan subject to Section 412 of the Code, and no
application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization period
pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with respect to any Plan.

(b) There are no pending or, to the knowledge of Borrowers, threatened claims,
actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to
any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary
responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted in or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (ii) no
Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (iii) no Obligor or ERISA
Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability under
Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan (other than premiums due and
not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA); (iv) no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate
has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability (and no event has
occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would
result in such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a
Multiemployer Plan; and (v) no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a
transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

(d) With respect to any Foreign Plan, (i) all employer and employee
contributions required by law or by the terms of the Foreign Plan have been
made, or, if applicable, accrued, in accordance with normal accounting
practices; (ii) the fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan,
the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance, or
the book reserve established for any Foreign Plan, together with any accrued
contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the accrued benefit
obligations with respect to all current and former participants in such Foreign
Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to
account for such obligations in accordance with applicable generally accepted
accounting principles; and (iii) it has been registered as required and has been
maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities.

9.1.20. Trade Relations. There exists no actual or, to Borrower’s knowledge,
threatened termination, limitation or modification of any business relationship
between any Obligor and any customer or supplier, or any group of customers or
suppliers, who individually or in the aggregate are material to the business of
such Obligor. There exists no condition or circumstance that could reasonably be
expected to impair the ability of any Obligor to conduct its business at any
time hereafter in substantially the same manner as conducted on the Closing
Date.

9.1.21. Labor Relations. Except as described on Schedule 9.1.21, no Obligor is
party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement, management agreement
or consulting agreement. There are no material grievances, disputes or
controversies with any union or other organization of any Obligor’s employees,
or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, any asserted or threatened strikes, work
stoppages or demands for collective bargaining in each case that could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.22. Payable Practices. No Obligor has made any material change in its
historical accounts payable practices from those in effect on the Closing Date.

9.1.23. Not a Regulated Entity. No Obligor is (a) an “investment company” or a
“person directly or indirectly controlled by or acting on behalf of an
investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940; or
(b) subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce
Act, any public utilities code or any other Applicable Law regarding its
authority to incur Debt.

9.1.24. Margin Stock. No Obligor or Subsidiary is engaged, principally or as one
of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. No Loan proceeds or Letters of
Credit will be used by Borrowers to purchase or carry, or to reduce or refinance
any Debt incurred to purchase or carry, any Margin Stock or for any related
purpose governed by Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors.

9.2. Complete Disclosure. No Loan Document contains any untrue statement of a
material fact, nor fails to disclose any material fact necessary to make the
statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the
circumstances in which such statements were made. There is no fact or
circumstance that any Obligor has failed to disclose to Agent in writing that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 10. COVENANTS AND CONTINUING AGREEMENTS

10.1. Affirmative Covenants. As long as any Commitments or Obligations are
outstanding, each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to:

10.1.1. Inspections; Appraisals.

(a) Permit Agent from time to time, subject (except when a Default or Event of
Default exists) to reasonable notice and normal business hours, to visit and
inspect the Properties of any Obligor or Subsidiary, inspect, audit and make
extracts from any Obligor’s or Subsidiary’s books and records (except as
prohibited by Applicable Law), and discuss with its officers, other employees
(with the consent of a Senior Officer which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed and shall not be required during and Event of
Default), agents, advisors and independent accountants such Obligor’s or
Subsidiary’s business, financial condition, assets, prospects and results of
operations. Lenders may participate in any such visit or inspection, at their
own expense. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to any Obligor to
make any inspection, nor to share any results of any inspection, appraisal or
report with any Obligor. Borrowers acknowledge that all inspections, appraisals
and reports are prepared by Agent and Lenders for their purposes, and Obligors
shall not be entitled to rely upon them.

(b) Reimburse Agent for all charges, costs and reasonable and documented
expenses of Agent in connection with (i) examinations of any Obligor’s books and
records or any other financial or Collateral matters as Agent deems appropriate
(up to three examinations per year unless a Trigger Period was in effect during
such year, and up to four examinations in any year during which a Trigger Period
was in effect); and (ii) periodic appraisals of Inventory, as applicable.
Subject to and without limiting the foregoing, at any time other than during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Borrowers specifically agree to pay Agent’s
then standard charges for each day that an employee of Agent or its Affiliates
is engaged in any examination activities, and shall pay the standard charges of
Agent’s internal appraisal group. As of the Closing Date, the Agent’s standard
charges (which are subject to change at any time without notice to any Obligor)
are $850 per day per employee, plus out of pocket expenses within the United
States, and £500 per day per employee, plus out of pocket expenses within the
U.K. During the continuation of an Event of Default, Borrowers agree to pay all
charges any examination activities, including the charges of Agent’s internal
appraisal group and any outside appraisers or examiners, all of which fees may
be in excess of the Agent’s then standard charges and in excess of the
limitations on the number of reimbursable examinations set forth above. This
Section shall not be construed to limit Agent’s right to conduct examinations or
to obtain appraisals at any time in its discretion, nor to use third parties for
such purposes.

10.1.2. Financial and Other Information. Keep adequate records and books of
account with respect to its business activities, in which proper entries are
made in accordance with GAAP reflecting all financial transactions; and furnish
to Agent and Lenders:

(a) as soon as available, and in any event within 90 days after the close of
each Fiscal Year, copies of the annual filings of Parent and its Subsidiaries
required to be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, together with the
balance sheets as of the end of such Fiscal Year and the related statements of
income, cash flow and shareholders’ equity for such Fiscal Year, on consolidated
and consolidating bases for Parent, Borrowers and Subsidiaries, which
consolidated statements shall be audited and certified (without qualification as
to scope, “going concern” or similar items) by a firm of independent certified
public accountants of recognized standing selected by Borrowers and acceptable
to Agent, and shall set forth in comparative form corresponding figures for the
preceding Fiscal Year and other information reasonably acceptable to Agent.
Simultaneously with retaining accountants for their annual audit, Borrowers
shall send a letter to the accountants, with a copy to Agent, notifying the
accountants that one of the primary purposes for retaining their services and
obtaining audited financial statements is for use by Agent and Lenders. Agent is
authorized to send such notice if Borrowers fail to do so for any reason.

(b) as soon as available, and in any event within 45 days after the end of each
fiscal quarter, copies of the quarterly filings of Parent and its Subsidiaries
required to be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, together with the
unaudited balance sheets as of the end of such quarter and the related
statements of income and cash flow for such quarter and for the portion of the
Fiscal Year then elapsed, on consolidated and consolidating bases for Parent,
Borrowers and Subsidiaries, setting forth in comparative form corresponding
figures for the preceding Fiscal Year and certified by the chief financial
officer of Borrower Agent as prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly
presenting the financial position and results of operations for such quarter,
subject to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes;

(c) concurrently with delivery of financial statements under clauses (a) and

become automatically due and payable and all Commitments shall terminate,
without any action by Agent or notice of any kind. In addition, or if any other
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may in its discretion
(and shall upon written direction of Required Lenders) do any one or more of the
following from time to time (upon such notice to Borrower Agent as may be
required by Applicable Law after giving effect to the agreements and waivers
contained herein):

(a) declare any Obligations immediately due and payable, whereupon they shall be
due and payable without diligence, presentment, demand, protest or notice of any
kind, including notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration, all
of which are hereby waived by Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law;

(b) terminate, reduce or condition any Commitment, or make any adjustment to the
Borrowing Base;

(c) require Obligors to Cash Collateralize LC Obligations, Bank Product Debt and
other Obligations that are contingent or not yet due and payable (excluding
contingent or inchoate indemnification obligations to the extent that claims
giving rise thereto have not been asserted or cannot reasonably be identified by
any Secured Party based on the then-known facts and circumstances), and, if
Obligors fail promptly to deposit such Cash Collateral, Agent may (and shall
upon the direction of Required Lenders) advance the required Cash Collateral as
Revolver Loans (whether or not an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or
the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied); and

(d) exercise any other default rights or remedies afforded under any agreement,
by law, at equity or otherwise, including the rights and remedies of a secured
party under the UCC. Such rights and remedies include the rights to (i) take
possession of any Collateral; (ii) require Borrowers to assemble Collateral, at
Borrowers’ expense, and make it available to Agent at a place designated by
Agent; (iii) enter any premises where Collateral is located and store Collateral
on such premises until sold (and if the premises are owned or leased by a
Borrower, Borrowers agree not to charge for such storage); and (iv) sell or
otherwise dispose of any Collateral in its then condition, or after any further
manufacturing or processing thereof, at public or private sale, with such notice
as may be required by Applicable Law, in lots or in bulk, at such locations, all
as Agent, in its discretion, deems advisable. Each Borrower agrees that 10 days
notice of any proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral by Agent shall be
reasonable. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Obligor’s
premises, without charge, and such sales may be adjourned from time to time in
accordance with Applicable Law. Agent shall have the right to sell, lease or
otherwise dispose of any Collateral for cash, credit or any combination thereof,
and Agent may purchase any Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private
sale and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may set off the
amount of such price against the Obligations.

11.3. License. Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable, non-exclusive license or
other right following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default to use, license or sub-license (without payment of royalty or other
compensation to any Person) any or all Intellectual Property of Borrowers,
computer hardware and software, trade secrets, brochures, customer lists,
promotional and advertising materials, labels, packaging materials and other
Property, in advertising for sale, marketing, selling, collecting, completing
manufacture of, or otherwise exercising any rights or remedies with respect to,
any Collateral. Each Borrower’s rights and interests under Intellectual Property
shall inure to Agent’s benefit.

11.4. Setoff. At any time during an Event of Default, Agent, Issuing Bank,
Lenders, and any of their Affiliates are authorized, to the fullest extent
permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general
or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by
Agent, Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the
account of an Obligor against any Obligations, irrespective of whether or not
Agent, Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Affiliate shall have made any demand
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations
may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of Agent,
Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Affiliate different from the branch or office
holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of Agent,
Issuing Bank, each Lender and each such Affiliate under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
such Person may have.

11.5. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver.

11.5.1. Cumulative Rights. All covenants, conditions, provisions, warranties,
guaranties, indemnities and other undertakings of Borrowers contained in the
Loan Documents are cumulative and not in derogation or substitution of each
other. In particular, the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders are
cumulative, may be exercised at any time and from time to time, concurrently or
in any order, and shall not be exclusive of any other rights or remedies that
Agent and Lenders may have, whether under any agreement, by law, at equity or
otherwise.

11.5.2. Waivers. The failure or delay of Agent or any Lender to require strict
performance by Borrowers with any terms of the Loan Documents, or to exercise
any rights or remedies with respect to Collateral or otherwise, shall not
operate as a waiver thereof nor as establishment of a course of dealing. All
rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until Full Payment
of all Obligations. No modification of any terms of any Loan Documents
(including any waiver thereof) shall be effective, unless such modification is
specifically provided in a writing directed to Borrower Agent and executed by
Agent or the requisite Lenders, and such modification shall be applicable only
to the matter specified. No waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall
constitute a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default that may exist at
such time, unless expressly stated. If Agent or any Lender accepts performance
by any Obligor under any Loan Documents in a manner other than that specified
therein, or during any Default or Event of Default, or if Agent or any Lender
shall delay or exercise any right or remedy under any Loan Documents, such
acceptance, delay or exercise shall not operate to waive any Default or Event of
Default nor to preclude exercise of any other right or remedy.

     
SECTION 12.
12.1.
  AGENT
Appointment, Authority and Duties of Agent.
 
   

12.1.1. Appointment and Authority. Each Lender irrevocably appoints and
designates Bank of America as Agent hereunder. Agent may, and each Lender
authorizes Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is intended to
be a party and accept all Security Documents, for Agent’s benefit and the Pro
Rata benefit of Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent or
Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and
the exercise by Agent or Required Lenders of any rights or remedies set forth
therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be
authorized by and binding upon all Lenders. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as
the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and
collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and
deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or
subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any
Obligor or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for
purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for
all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with
Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights
or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable
Law or otherwise. The duties of Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in
nature, and Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender,
Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or
any transaction relating thereto. Agent alone shall be authorized to determine
whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Accounts, Eligible
In-Transit Inventory or Eligible Inventory, whether any Installment Receivables
constitute Eligible Installment Receivables, or whether to impose or release any
reserve, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall
exonerate Agent from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in
judgment.

12.1.2. Duties. Agent shall not have any duties except those expressly set forth
in the Loan Documents. The conferral upon Agent of any right shall not imply a
duty on Agent’s part to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by
Required Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

12.1.3. Agent Professionals. Agent may perform its duties through agents and
employees. Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be
entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in
reasonable reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional. Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or
Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

12.1.4. Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon
Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder
of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. Agent may request
instructions from Required Lenders with respect to any act (including the
failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents, and may seek assurances
to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under
Section 12.6 against all Claims that could be incurred by Agent in connection
with any act. Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has
received such instructions or assurances, and Agent shall not incur liability to
any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders shall be
binding upon all Lenders, and no Lender shall have any right of action
whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting
in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, instructions by and consent of all Lenders shall be required in the
circumstances described in Section 14.1.1, and in no event shall Required
Lenders, without the prior written consent of each Lender, direct Agent to
accelerate and demand payment of Loans held by one Lender without accelerating
and demanding payment of all other Loans, nor to terminate the Commitments of
one Lender without terminating the Commitments of all Lenders. In no event shall
Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion, is contrary to
Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to
personal liability.

12.2. Agreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.

12.2.1. Lien Releases; Care of Collateral. Lenders authorize Agent to release
any Lien with respect to any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the
Obligations; (b) that is the subject of an Asset Disposition which Borrowers
certify in writing to Agent is a Permitted Asset Disposition or a Lien which
Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over Agent’s Liens
(and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further
inquiry); (c) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or
(d) with the written consent of all Lenders. Agent shall have no obligation
whatsoever to any Lenders to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by a
Borrower, or is cared for, protected, insured or encumbered, nor to assure that
Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled
to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any
Collateral.

12.2.2. Possession of Collateral. Agent and Lenders appoint each other Lender as
agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens
in any Collateral held by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by
possession. If any Lender obtains possession of any Collateral, it shall notify
Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to
Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with Agent’s
instructions.

12.2.3. Reports. Agent shall promptly, upon receipt thereof, forward to each
Lender copies of the results of any field audit, examination or appraisal
prepared by or on behalf of Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral
(“Report”). Each Lender agrees (a) that neither Bank of America nor Agent makes
any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report,
and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any
Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or
examinations, and that Agent or any other Person performing any audit or
examination will inspect only specific information regarding Obligations or the
Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books and records as well
as upon representations of Borrowers’ officers and employees; and (c) to keep
all Reports confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, and not to
distribute any Report (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such
Lender’s Participants, attorneys and accountants) or use any Report in any
manner other than administration of the Loans and other Obligations. Each Lender
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Agent and any other Person preparing a
Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it
may draw from any Report, as well as any Claims arising in connection with any
third parties that obtain any part or contents of a Report through such Lender.

12.3. Reliance By Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication
(including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person, and upon the advice and statements of Agent Professionals.

12.4. Action Upon Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any
Default or Event of Default unless it has received written notice from a Lender
or Borrower Agent specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender
acquires knowledge of a Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify
Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Lender agrees that, except
as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Agent
and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate
Obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might
otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC
sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, a Lender may take action to preserve or enforce its rights
against an Obligor where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that
would, absent such action, bar enforcement of Obligations held by such Lender,
including the filing of proofs of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding.

12.5. Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of
any Obligation, whether through set-off or otherwise, in excess of its share of
such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with
Section 5.6.1, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from Agent,
Issuing Bank and the other Lenders such participations in the affected
Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess
payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.1, as
applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the
purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. No Lender shall
set off against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of Agent.

12.6. Indemnification of Agent Indemnitees. EACH LENDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD
HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS (BUT
WITHOUT LIMITING THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF OBLIGORS UNDER ANY LOAN
DOCUMENTS), ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR
ASSERTED AGAINST ANY AGENT INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THE CLAIM RELATES TO OR ARISES
FROM AN AGENT INDEMNITEE ACTING AS OR FOR AGENT (IN ITS CAPACITY AS AGENT). In
Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any such Claims made against an Agent
Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto,
from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral
proceeds to Lenders. If Agent is sued by any receiver, bankruptcy trustee,
debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent
transfer, then any monies paid by Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such
proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’
fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to Agent by
each Lender to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

12.7. Limitation on Responsibilities of AgentAgent shall not be liable to
Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents,
except for losses directly and solely caused by Agent’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or
delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor or Lender of any obligations
under the Loan Documents. Agent does not make to Lenders any express or implied
warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to any Obligations,
Collateral, Loan Documents or Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible
to Lenders for any recitals, statements, information, representations or
warranties contained in any Loan Documents; the execution, validity,
genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the
genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or
existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of
any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any
Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of
operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account
Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Lender to ascertain
or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance
or performance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the
satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

12.8. Successor Agent and Co-Agents.

12.8.1. Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance
of a successor Agent as provided below, Agent may resign at any time by giving
at least 30 days written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower Agent. Upon
receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a
successor Agent which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or
(b) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United States or
any state or district thereof, has a combined capital surplus of at least
$200,000,000 and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) is reasonably
acceptable to Borrower Agent. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation of Agent, then Agent may appoint a successor
agent from among Lenders. Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of an appointment
to serve as Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without
further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder but shall continue to have the benefits of the
indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2. Notwithstanding any Agent’s
resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its
benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or
this loan shall continue to be Agent hereunder without further act on the part
of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above.

12.8.2. Separate Collateral Agent. It is the intent of the parties that there
shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of
financial institutions to transact business in any jurisdiction. If Agent
believes that it may be limited in the exercise of any rights or remedies under
the Loan Documents due to any Applicable Law, Agent may appoint an additional
Person who is not so limited, as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral
agent. If Agent so appoints a collateral agent or co-collateral agent, each
right and remedy intended to be available to Agent under the Loan Documents
shall also be vested in such separate agent. Every covenant and obligation
necessary to the exercise thereof by such agent shall run to and be enforceable
by it as well as Agent. Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents as
Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agent. If any
collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die or dissolve, become incapable
of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent,
to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by
Agent until appointment of a new agent.

12.9. Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that
it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lenders, and
based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision
to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations
hereunder. Each Lender has made such inquiries concerning the Loan Documents,
the Collateral and each Obligor as such Lender feels necessary. Each Lender
further acknowledges and agrees that the other Lenders and Agent have made no
representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the
legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or
Obligations. Each Lender will, independently and without reliance upon the other
Lenders or Agent, and based upon such financial statements, documents and
information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon
its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations,
and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for
notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, Agent
shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any notices,
reports or certificates furnished to Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other
information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties
of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of
Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates.

12.10. Replacement of Certain Lenders. If a Lender (a) fails to fund its Pro
Rata share of any Loan or LC Obligation hereunder, and such failure is not cured
within two Business Days, (b) defaults in performing any of its obligations
under the Loan Documents, or (c) fails to give its consent to any amendment,
waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required
Lenders consented, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any
Person may have, Agent may, by notice to such Lender within 120 days after such
event, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the
Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s) specified by Agent, pursuant to
appropriate Assignment and Acceptance(s) and within 20 days after Agent’s
notice. Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such
Assignment and Acceptance if the Lender fails to execute same. Such Lender shall
be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts
owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees
through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge).

12.11. Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.11.1. Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to Agent shall be
made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately
available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on
demand by Agent and request for payment is made by Agent by 11:00 a.m. (Pacific
time) on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00
p.m. (Pacific time) on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m.
(Pacific time), then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Pacific time) on the
next Business Day. Payment by Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire
transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent. Any such payment shall be
subject to Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such Lender under
the Loan Documents.

12.11.2. Failure to Pay. If any Lender fails to pay any amount when due by it to
Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due
date until paid at the rate determined by Agent as customary in the banking
industry for interbank compensation. In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to
receive credit for any interest paid by a Lender to Agent.

12.11.3. Recovery of Payments. If Agent pays any amount to a Lender in the
expectation that a related payment will be received by Agent from an Obligor and
such related payment is not received, then Agent may recover such amount from
each Lender that received it. If Agent determines at any time that an amount
received under any Loan Document must be returned to an Obligor or paid to any
other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any
other term of any Loan Document, Agent shall not be required to distribute such
amount to any Lender. If any amounts received and applied by Agent to any
Obligations are later required to be returned by Agent pursuant to Applicable
Law, each Lender shall pay to Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of
the amounts required to be returned.

12.12. Agent in its Individual Capacity. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have
the same rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender,
and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include
Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Each of Bank of America and its
Affiliates may accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for,
invest in, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as trustee under
indentures of, serve as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in
any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if Bank of America
were any other bank, without any duty to account therefor (including any fees or
other consideration received in connection therewith) to the other Lenders. In
their individual capacity, Bank of America and its Affiliates may receive
information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors
(including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and each Lender
agrees that Bank of America and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to
provide such information to Lenders, if acquired in such individual capacity and
not as Agent hereunder.

12.13. Agent Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated
(on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an
“Agent” or “Arranger” of any type shall not have any right, power,
responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to
all Lenders, and shall in no event be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship
with any other Lender.

12.14. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Section 12 is an agreement solely
among Lenders and Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This
Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Borrowers or any other
Person. As between Borrowers and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any
Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed
to have been authorized and directed by Lenders.

SECTION 13. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

13.1. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of Borrowers, Agent, Lenders, and their respective successors and
assigns, except that (a) no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights
or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by
a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3. Agent may treat the
Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such
Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3. Any authorization or
consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee
or assignee of such Lender.

13.2. Participations. 13.2.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in
the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at
any time sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating
interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents.
Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such
Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for
performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its
Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall
be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and
Borrowers and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender
in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible
for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and
Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any
such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a
Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless Borrower
Agent agrees otherwise in writing.

13.2.2. Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve,
without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other
modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal,
interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect
to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones
the Commitment Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled
payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases
any Borrower, Guarantor or substantial portion of the Collateral.

13.2.3. Benefit of Set-Off. Borrowers agree that each Participant shall have a
right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as
if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also
retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by
it. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with
Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with
Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

13.3. Assignments.

13.3.1. Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any
of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each
assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor
Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a
partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $3,000,000 (unless
otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of
$1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in
whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the
Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless
otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such
assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording,
an Assignment and Acceptance. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender
to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to (i) any Federal
Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to
Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such
Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) counterparties to swap agreements relating to any
Loans; provided, however, that any payment by Borrowers to the assigning Lender
in respect of any Obligations assigned as described in this sentence shall
satisfy Borrowers’ obligations hereunder to the extent of such payment, and no
such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations
hereunder.

13.3.2. Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Agent of an assignment notice
in the form of Exhibit C, appropriately completed, and a processing fee of
$3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion), the assignment
shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this
Section 13.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all
purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and
obligations of a Lender thereunder. The transferee Lender shall comply with
Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire
satisfactory to Agent.

SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1. Consents, Amendments and Waivers. 14.1.1. Amendment. No modification of
any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or
any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the
prior written agreement of Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each
Obligor party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that

(a) without the prior written consent of Agent, no modification shall be
effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any
rights, duties or discretion of Agent;

(b) without the prior written consent of Issuing Bank, no modification shall be
effective with respect to any LC Obligations or Section 2.3;

(c) without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, no modification
shall be effective that would (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; or
(ii) reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest
or fees payable to such Lender; and

(d) without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except a defaulting Lender
as provided in Section 4.2), no modification shall be effective that would
(i) extend the Revolver Termination Date; (ii) alter Sections 5.6, 7.1 (except
to add Collateral) or 14.1.1; (iii) amend the definitions of Borrowing Base (and
the defined terms used in such definition), Pro Rata or Required Lenders;
(iv) increase any advance rate, decrease the Availability Block or increase
total Commitments; (vi) release Collateral with a book value greater than
$2,000,000 during any calendar year, except as currently contemplated by the
Loan Documents; or (vii) release any Obligor from liability for any Obligations,
if such Obligor is Solvent at the time of the release.

14.1.2. Limitations. The agreement of Borrowers shall not be necessary to the
effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the
rights and duties of Lenders, Agent and/or Issuing Bank as among themselves.
Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter or any agreement relating to a
Bank Product shall be required for any modification of such agreement, and no
Affiliate of a Lender that is party to a Bank Product agreement shall have any
other right to consent to or participate in any manner in modification of any
other Loan Document. The making of any Loans during the existence of a Default
or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default
or Event of Default, nor to establish a course of dealing. Any waiver or consent
granted by Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing, and then
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is
given.

14.1.3. Payment for Consents. No Borrower will, directly or indirectly, pay any
remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee
or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as
consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan
Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same
terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

14.2. Indemnity. EACH BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES
AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE,
INCLUDING CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE. In no event shall
any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold
harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

14.3. Notices and Communications.

14.3.1. Notice Address. Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other
communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to
any Borrower, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof,
and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or,
in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the
address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a
party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3. Each
such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by
facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if
confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days
after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to
the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly
delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no notice to Agent pursuant to any of Sections 2.1.4, 2.3, 3.1.2,
4.1.1 or 5.3.3 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to
whose attention at Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written notice
or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing
provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the
noticed party. Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by
all Borrowers.

14.3.2. Electronic Communications; Voice Mail. Electronic mail and internet
websites may be used only for routine communications, such as financial
statements, Borrowing Base Certificates and other information required by
Section 10.1.2, administrative matters, distribution of Loan Documents for
execution, and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4. Agent and Lenders make no
assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications.
Electronic and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan
Documents.

14.3.3. Non-Conforming Communications. Agent and Lenders may rely upon any
notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if such notices
were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not
confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from
a later confirmation. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any
telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of a Borrower.

14.4. Performance of Borrowers’ Obligations. Agent may, in its discretion when
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Borrower’s expense, pay
any amount or do any act required of a Borrower under any Loan Documents or
otherwise lawfully requested by Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or
collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any
Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Agent’s Liens
in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium,
warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any
discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary
Expenses) of Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to Agent by Borrowers,
on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof
at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Revolver Loans. Any payment made or
action taken by Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right
to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under
the Loan Documents.

14.5. Credit Inquiries. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent and Lenders (but
they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit
inquiries from third parties concerning any Borrower or Subsidiary.

14.6. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any
provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective
only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan
Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

14.7. Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Loan Documents
are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several
limitations, tests or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree
that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as
otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the
applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in
direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision
herein shall govern and control.

14.8. Counterparts. Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall
constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when Agent
has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery
of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.

14.9. Entire Agreement. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. The Loan
Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the
subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

14.10. Relationship with Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are
several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments
of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a
separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled, to the extent
not otherwise restricted hereunder, to protect and enforce its rights arising
out of the Loan Documents. It shall not be necessary for Agent or any other
Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes.
Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Agent or Lenders pursuant to the Loan
Documents shall be deemed to constitute Agent and Lenders to be a partnership,
association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute
control of any Borrower.

14.11. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects
of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Borrowers acknowledge and
agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other
services by Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are
arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and such Person;
(ii) Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax
advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) Borrowers are
capable of evaluating and understanding, and do understand and accept, the
terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents; (b) each of Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and
has been acting solely as a principal in connection with this credit facility,
is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrowers, any of their
Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth
therein; and (c) Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be
engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from
Borrowers and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such
interests to Borrowers or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by
Applicable Law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may
have against Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to
any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any
aspect of any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

14.12. Confidentiality. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Bank agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its
Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction
over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by
Applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other
party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies, the
enforcement of any rights, or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan
Documents; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the
same as those of this Section, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective
party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product; (g) with the consent of the
Borrower; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available
other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to
Agent, any Lender, Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates on a non-confidential
basis from a source other than Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent
and Lenders may issue and disseminate to the public general information
describing this credit facility, including the names and addresses of Borrowers
and a general description of Borrowers’ businesses, and may use Borrowers’ names
in advertising and other promotional materials. For purposes of this Section,
“Information” means all information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary
relating to it or its business, other than any information that is available to
Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank on a non-confidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Obligor or Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of
information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this
Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if
such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Bank acknowledges
that (i) Information may include material non-public information concerning an
Obligor or Subsidiary; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the
use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material
non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law, including federal and
state securities laws.

14.13. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, UNLESS
OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO
FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

14.14. Consent to Forum; Arbitration. 14.14.1.

14.14.2. Forum. EACH BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION
OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN OR WITH JURISDICTION OVER THE BOROUGH
OF MANHATTAN, CITY OF NEW YORK, IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE RELATING IN ANY WAY
TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT BY
IT SOLELY IN ANY SUCH COURT. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS,
OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY HAVE REGARDING SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR
SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO
IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN
SECTION 14.3.1. Nothing herein shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to
bring proceedings against any Obligor in any other court, nor limit the right of
any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by Agent of
any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.

14.14.3. California Actions. THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT, ONLY IF
ANY ACTION SEEKING ENFORCEMENT OF, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL REMEDY FOUNDED ON, THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IS COMMENCED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA,
WILL THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS OF SECTION 14.14.4 BECOME AVAILABLE TO THE
PARTIES. PRIOR TO THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY ACTION IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA,
SECTION 14.14.4 SHALL BE OF NO FORCE OR EFFECT.

14.14.4. Arbitration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, any controversy or claim among the parties relating in any way to
any Obligations or Loan Documents, including any alleged tort, shall at the
request of any party hereto following commencement of any action to litigate
such controversy or claim in the state of California be determined by binding
arbitration conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act
(Title 9 U.S. Code). Arbitration proceedings will be determined in accordance
with the Act, the then-current rules and procedures for the arbitration of
financial services disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and
the terms of this Section. In the event of any inconsistency, the terms of this
Section shall control. If AAA is unwilling or unable to serve as the provider of
arbitration or to enforce any provision of this Section, Agent may designate
another arbitration organization with similar procedures to serve as the
provider of arbitration. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in Los
Angeles, California. The arbitration hearing shall commence within 90 days of
the arbitration demand and close within 90 days thereafter. The arbitration
award must be issued within 30 days after close of the hearing (subject to
extension by the arbitrator for up to 60 days upon a showing of good cause), and
shall include a concise written statement of reasons for the award. The
arbitrator shall give effect to applicable statutes of limitation in determining
any controversy or claim, and for these purposes, service on AAA under
applicable AAA rules of a notice of claim is the equivalent of the filing of a
lawsuit. Any dispute concerning this Section or whether a controversy or claim
is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have
the power to award legal fees to the extent provided by this Agreement. Judgment
upon an arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuant to a
provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of
any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. No
controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of
all parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, such controversy or
claim relates to an obligation secured by Real Estate, but if all parties do not
consent to submission of such a controversy or claim to arbitration, it shall be
determined as provided in the next sentence. At the request of any party, a
controversy or claim that is not submitted to arbitration as provided above
shall be determined by judicial reference; and if such an election is made, the
parties shall designate to the court a referee or referees selected under the
auspices of the AAA in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in AAA
sponsored proceedings and the presiding referee of the panel (or the referee if
there is a single referee) shall be an active attorney or retired judge; and
judgment upon the award rendered by such referee or referees shall be entered in
the court in which proceeding was commenced. None of the foregoing provisions of
this Section shall limit the right of Agent or Lenders to exercise self-help
remedies, such as setoff, foreclosure or sale of any Collateral or to obtain
provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before,
after or during any arbitration proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not
waive the right of any party to resort to arbitration or reference. At Agent’s
option, foreclosure under a Mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of
power of sale thereunder or by judicial foreclosure.

14.15. Waivers by Borrowers. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
EACH BORROWER WAIVES (A) THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY (WHICH AGENT AND EACH LENDER
HEREBY ALSO WAIVES) IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE OF ANY KIND RELATING IN ANY WAY
TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, OBLIGATIONS OR COLLATERAL; (B) PRESENTMENT, DEMAND,
PROTEST, NOTICE OF PRESENTMENT, DEFAULT, NON-PAYMENT, MATURITY, RELEASE,
COMPROMISE, SETTLEMENT, EXTENSION OR RENEWAL OF ANY COMMERCIAL PAPER, ACCOUNTS,
DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER AND GUARANTIES AT ANY TIME HELD BY AGENT
ON WHICH A BORROWER MAY IN ANY WAY BE LIABLE, AND HEREBY RATIFIES ANYTHING AGENT
MAY DO IN THIS REGARD; (C) NOTICE PRIOR TO TAKING POSSESSION OR CONTROL OF ANY
COLLATERAL; (D) ANY BOND OR SECURITY THAT MIGHT BE REQUIRED BY A COURT PRIOR TO
ALLOWING AGENT TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES; (E) THE BENEFIT OF ALL
VALUATION, APPRAISEMENT AND EXEMPTION LAWS; (F) ANY CLAIM AGAINST AGENT OR ANY
LENDER, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL,
EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (AS OPPOSED TO DIRECT OR ACTUAL DAMAGES) IN ANY
WAY RELATING TO ANY ENFORCEMENT ACTION, OBLIGATIONS, LOAN DOCUMENTS OR
TRANSACTIONS RELATING THERETO; AND (G) NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE HEREOF. Each
Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to
Agent and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that Agent and Lenders are
relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Borrowers. Each Borrower has
reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and
voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with
legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a
written consent to a trial by the court.

14.16. Patriot Act Notice. Agent and Lenders hereby notify Borrowers that
pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, Agent and Lenders are required
to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower,
including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will
allow Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act. Agent
and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if
any, and may require information regarding Borrowers’ management and owners,
such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth.
