advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance

provided that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any
reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to
Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such
drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate
of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such event
Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account
maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing.

contingent liabilities of Borrower in connection with any Letter of Credit or
the Foreign Exchange Agreement or foreign exchange contracts or any other

SECTION 3.3. NO VIOLATION. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower

is (i) in default on any obligation for borrowed money or any purchase money
obligation in the principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000)
or more (either individually or in the aggregate considering all similar
obligations then in default) or (ii) in default on any other material lease,
commitment, contract, instrument or obligation, which default could have a
Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.11. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.11
hereto, each of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor is in compliance in all
material respects with all applicable federal or state environmental, hazardous
waste, health and safety statutes, and any rules or regulations adopted pursuant
thereto, which govern or affect such Person’s operations and/or properties,
including without limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act of 1986, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
of 1976, and the Federal Toxic Substances Control Act, as any of the same may be
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. None of the operations of
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is the subject of any federal or state
investigation evaluating whether any remedial action involving a material
expenditure is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or
substance into the environment. None of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor has
any material contingent liability in connection with any release of any toxic or
hazardous waste or substance into the environment.

SECTION 3.12. SUBSIDIARIES. None of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor owns
any stock, equity or other ownership interest in any Person other than the
Subsidiaries set forth on Schedule 3.12 hereto.

SECTION 3.13. TRUTH, ACCURACY OF INFORMATION. To the best of Borrower’s and each
Subsidiary Guarantor’s knowledge, no statement of financial or other information
furnished by Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to Bank in connection with
this Agreement contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits a
material fact necessary to make the statement not misleading in light of all of
the circumstances existing on the date the statement was made, including such
circumstances or other factual information previously furnished by Borrower or
any Subsidiary Guarantor to Bank; provided, however, that projections contained
therein are not to be viewed as factual and that actual results during the
periods covered thereby may differ from the results set forth in such
projections by a material amount. All projections that are part of such
information are based upon good faith estimates and stated assumptions believed
to be reasonable and fair as of the date made in light of conditions and facts
then known and, as of such date, reflect good faith, reasonable and fair
estimates of the information projected for the periods set forth therein.

SECTION 3.14. FICTITIOUS NAMES. The only fictitious names used by Borrower and
each Subsidiary Guarantor are set forth on Schedule 3.14 hereto.

SECTION 3.15. MUTUAL BENEFIT. The funds that have been and are to be borrowed
from Bank by Borrower have been and are to be contemporaneously paid to or used
for the benefit of each Subsidiary Guarantor. It is the position, intent and
expectation of the parties that each of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor
has derived and will continue to derive significant, substantial and direct
benefits from the accommodations that have been made by Bank under the Loan
Documents and that each of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor has received
at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as

 

-13-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and more than
sufficient consideration to support the indebtedness, obligations, liens and
security interests created under the Loan Documents and all repayments or other
transfers made or to be made to Bank. To the extent, if any, that funds are
transferred by any of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to Borrower or any
other Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, which such recipient intends to
be used to repay Bank, it is the position, intent and expectation of the parties
that: (a) such funds shall in fact be used to contemporaneously repay Bank;
(b) to the maximum extent permitted by law, these transfers constitute
contemporaneous exchanges for value given to the transferor and, therefore,
shall qualify for the protection and benefits of Section 547(c) of the
Bankruptcy Code; and (c) in any event, Bank, as the immediate transferee of such
funds, shall take them in “good faith” and without “knowledge of the voidability
of the transfer” as between Borrower and such Subsidiary Guarantor or as between
Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, if any, as those phrases are used in
Section 550(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

To the extent that any payment or collateral proceeds received by Bank is
subsequently avoided or otherwise required to be paid over to any other person
or entity, then the obligation or indebtedness which had been paid, reduced or
satisfied by such payment or receipt of collateral proceeds shall be reinstated
and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment,
reduction or satisfaction occurred.

SECTION 3.16. SOLVENCY. Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, taken
individually, is solvent, able to pay its debts generally as such debts mature,
and has capital sufficient to carry on its businesses and all businesses in
which it is about to engage. The saleable value of Borrower’s and each
Subsidiary Guarantor’s total assets at a fair valuation, and at a present fair
saleable value, is greater than the amount of Borrower’s or such Subsidiary
Guarantor’s total obligations. None of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor will
be rendered insolvent by the execution or delivery of this Agreement or of any
of the other Loan Documents or by the transactions contemplated hereunder or
thereunder.

otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any

-23-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to Bank under any of the
Loan Documents, and (c) the prosecution or defense of any action in any way
related to any of the Loan Documents, including without limitation, any action

adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Bank or any other
person) relating to Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other person or
entity.

(b) Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless Bank, its officers, directors, employees and agents
(each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses whatsoever which an Indemnified Party may
incur or be subject to as a result of any claim against an Indemnified Party by
any Person other than Borrower or any Subsidiary (except to the extent that such
claim by Borrower or any Subsidiary against any Indemnified Party is
unsuccessful) by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery of
and consummation and performance of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, the Line of Credit Note or any other Loan Documents; provided,
however, that Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be required to
indemnify an Indemnified Party for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities,
costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, any of the foregoing
are caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified
Party. Nothing in this Section 8.3 is intended to limit the obligations of
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to pay its obligations under this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 8.3 shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the obligations of
Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 8.4. SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal

interests or rights hereunder without Bank’s prior written consent. Bank
reserves the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations
in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s rights and benefits under each
of the Loan Documents. In connection therewith, Bank may disclose all documents
and information which Bank now has or may hereafter acquire relating to any
credit subject hereto, Borrower or its business, any Subsidiary Guarantor or its
business, any guarantor hereunder or the business of such guarantor, or any
collateral required hereunder.

SECTION 8.5. RIGHT OF SETOFF If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, 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 Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any
Subsidiary Guarantor against any and all of the obligations to Bank,
irrespective of whether or not Bank shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower
or such Subsidiary Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a
branch or office of Bank different from the branch or office holding such
deposit or obligated on such obligations. The rights of Bank under this
Section 8.5 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights
of setoff) that Bank may have. Bank agrees to notify Borrower or such Subsidiary
Guarantor promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and
application.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 8.6. GUARANTY.

(a) (i) Each Material Domestic Subsidiary of Borrower party hereto and each
Material Domestic Subsidiary that becomes a guarantor of the Obligations
pursuant to a Joinder Agreement (each, a “Subsidiary Guarantor”) unconditionally
and irrevocably guarantees to Bank the full and prompt payment when due (whether
at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or
otherwise) and performance of (A) the obligations of Borrower under this
Agreement, (B) the obligations of Borrower under the other Loan Documents and
(C) all other obligations of Borrower to Bank, including, without limitation,
all other advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Bank,
heretofore, now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether voluntary or
involuntary and however arising, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent,
liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, including under any
swap, derivative, foreign exchange, hedge, deposit, treasury management or other
similar transaction or arrangement with Bank, and whether Borrower shall be
liable individually or jointly with others, or whether recovery upon which may
be or hereafter becomes unenforceable (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The
Guaranteed Obligations include interest that, but for a proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or
not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in any such
proceeding.

(ii) Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to the contrary, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Subsidiary
Guarantor shall be liable under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum
amount for which such Subsidiary Guarantor can be liable without rendering this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Subsidiary
Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable requirements of law relating to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, including the Uniform Fraudulent
Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of title 11
of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable
Requirements of Law (collectively, “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”). Any analysis of
the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for purposes of
Fraudulent Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution
established in Section 8.6(a)(iii) and, for purposes of such analysis, give
effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result of any payment made by
any Subsidiary Guarantor under any Loan Document.

(iii) To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required under any
Loan Document to pay any portion of any indebtedness under any Loan Document
exceeding the greater of (x) the amount of the economic benefit actually
received by such Subsidiary Guarantor from the loans and other obligations under
the Loan Documents and (y) the amount such Subsidiary Guarantor would otherwise
have paid if such Subsidiary Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the
indebtedness and other liabilities under the Loan Documents (excluding the
amount thereof repaid by the Borrower) in the same proportion as such Subsidiary
Guarantor’s net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the
aggregate net worth of all the Subsidiary Guarantors on such date, then such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Subsidiary Guarantors for
the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worth of such
other Subsidiary Guarantors on such date.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Guaranteed
Obligations are separate and distinct from any debt arising under or in
connection with any other document, including under any provision of this
Agreement other than this Section 8.6, executed at any time by such Subsidiary
Guarantor in favor of Bank; and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay and
perform all of the Guaranteed Obligations as required under this Section 8.6,
and Bank may enforce any and all of its respective rights and remedies
hereunder, without regard to any other document, including any provision of this
Agreement other than this Section 8.6, at any time executed by such Subsidiary
Guarantor in favor of Bank, irrespective of whether any such other document, or
any provision thereof or hereof, shall

 

-25-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

for any reason become unenforceable or any of the debt thereunder shall have
been discharged, whether by performance, avoidance or otherwise. Each Subsidiary
Guarantor acknowledges that, in providing benefits to Borrower, Bank is relying
upon the enforceability of this Section 8.6 and the Guaranteed Obligations as
separate and distinct debt of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and each Subsidiary
Guarantor agrees that Bank would be denied the full benefit of its bargain if at
any time this Section 8.6 or the Guaranteed Obligations were treated any
differently. The fact that the guaranty is set forth in this Agreement rather
than in a separate guaranty document is for the convenience of Borrower and
Subsidiary Guarantors and shall in no way impair or adversely affect the rights
or benefits of Bank under this Section 8.6. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to
execute and deliver a separate document, immediately upon request at any time of
Bank, evidencing such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 8.6.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be
brought against any Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not Borrower, any other
Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person is joined therein or a separate action
or actions are brought against Borrower, any such other Subsidiary Guarantor or
any such other Person.

(c) To the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction shall impose by final
judgment under applicable law (including the California Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act and Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) any limitations on
the amount of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations that Bank can enforce under this Section 8.6, Bank by its
acceptance hereof accepts such limitation on the amount of such Subsidiary
Guarantor’s liability hereunder to the extent needed to make this Section 8.6
fully enforceable and nonavoidable.

(d) The liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 8.6 shall be
irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional, and shall not be affected
by any circumstance that might constitute a discharge of a surety or guarantor
other than the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed
Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality
thereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees as follows:

(i) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate,
direct, and primary obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor and shall not be
contingent upon Bank’s exercise or enforcement of any remedy it may have against
Borrower or any other Person, or against any collateral or other security for
any Guaranteed Obligations;

(ii) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not merely of
collectibility;

(iii) Bank may enforce this Section 8.6 upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute among Bank, on the one
hand, and Borrower or any other Person, on the other hand, with respect to the
existence of such Event of Default;

(iv) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s payment of a portion, but not all, of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge such
Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations
remaining unsatisfied; and

(v) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall
not be impaired or affected by, nor shall such Subsidiary Guarantor be
exonerated or discharged by, any of the following events:

(A) any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law;

 

-26-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(B) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of Borrower or any
other Person for any Guaranteed Obligations due to any statute, regulation or
rule of law, or any invalidity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of
the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan Documents;

(C) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of Borrower or
any other guarantor or Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition
of any or all of the assets or shares of Borrower or any other Person;

(D) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Bank’s interests
in and rights under this Agreement (including this Section 8.6) or the other
Loan Documents;

(E) any claim, defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior
performance, that Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or
any other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack
of corporate or other authority to execute any of the Loan Documents;

(F) Bank’s amendment, modification, renewal, extension, cancellation or
surrender of any Loan Document or any Guaranteed Obligations;

(G) Bank’s exercise or non-exercise of any power, right or remedy with respect
to any Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral therefor;

(H) Bank’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction
in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law; or

(I) any other guaranty, whether by such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other
Person, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of Borrower to Bank.

(e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally consents and agrees that,
without notice to or further assent from such Subsidiary Guarantor:

(i) the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or
decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of Borrower under the Loan
Documents may be incurred and the time, manner, place or terms of any payment
under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, by one or more amendments,
modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise;

(ii) the time for Borrower’s (or any other Person’s) performance of or
compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or
observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or
compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or
compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as Bank (as
applicable under the relevant Loan Documents) may deem proper;

(iii) Bank may request and accept other guaranties and may take and hold
security as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, and may, from time to
time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate,
modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such other guaranties or security
and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action,
and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and

 

-27-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(iv) Bank may exercise, or waive or otherwise refrain from exercising, any other
right, remedy, power or privilege even if the exercise thereof affects or
eliminates any right of subrogation or any other right of such Subsidiary
Guarantor against Borrower.

(f) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives and agrees not to assert:

(i) any right to require Bank to proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor
or any other Person, or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of
Bank whatsoever;

(ii) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for
the collection or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority
or any other defense of Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person;

(iv) any defense based upon Bank’s errors or omissions in the administration of
the Guaranteed Obligations;

(v) any rights to set-offs and counterclaims;

(vi) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded
by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or
sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Section 8.6, including any
and all benefits that otherwise might be available to such Subsidiary Guarantor
under any of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2839,
2845, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433 and California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726; and

(vii) any and all notice of the acceptance of this guaranty, and any and all
notice of the creation, renewal, modification, extension or accrual of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the reliance by Bank upon this guaranty, or the
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder. The Guaranteed Obligations
shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred and
permitted to exist in reliance upon this guaranty. Each Subsidiary Guarantor
waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice
of default, dishonor or nonpayment and all other notices to or upon Borrower,
each Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations.

(g) No Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to require Bank to obtain or
disclose any information with respect to: the financial condition or character
of Borrower or the ability of Borrower to pay and perform the Guaranteed
Obligations; the Guaranteed Obligations; any collateral or other security for
any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; the existence or nonexistence of any
other guarantees of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; any action or
inaction on the part of Bank or any other Person; or any other matter, fact or
occurrence whatsoever. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has
undertaken its own independent investigation of the financial condition of
Borrower and all other matters pertaining to this guaranty and further
acknowledges that it is not relying in any manner upon any representation or
statement of Bank with respect thereto.

 

-28-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(h) Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall be satisfied in full and all
commitments to extend credit by Bank to Borrower shall be terminated, each
Subsidiary Guarantor shall not have, and shall not directly or indirectly
exercise: (i) any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this
Section 8.6, by any payment hereunder or otherwise; (ii) any rights of
contribution, indemnification, reimbursement or similar suretyship claims
arising out of this Section 8.6; or (iii) any other right that it might
otherwise have or acquire (in any way whatsoever) that could entitle it at any
time to share or participate in any right, remedy or security of Bank as against
any Borrower or other guarantors or any other Person, whether in connection with
this Section 8.6, any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise. If any amount
shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of the foregoing rights at
any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full,
such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall forthwith
be paid to Bank to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations,
whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan
Documents.

(i) All payments on account of all indebtedness, liabilities and other
obligations of Borrower to any Subsidiary Guarantor or to any other Subordinated
Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to
become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or
undetermined (the “Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt”) shall be subject,
subordinate and junior in right of payment and exercise of remedies, to the
extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior payment in full in cash
or cash equivalents of the Guaranteed Obligations. As long as any of the
Guaranteed Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification
obligations) shall remain outstanding and unpaid, each Subsidiary Guarantor
shall not accept or receive any payment or distribution by or on behalf of
Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, directly or indirectly, or assets of
Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, of any kind or character, whether in
cash, property or securities, including on account of the purchase, redemption
or other acquisition of Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt, as a result of
any collection, sale or other disposition of collateral, or by setoff, exchange
or in any other manner, for or on account of the Subsidiary Guarantor
Subordinated Debt (“Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments”) in each
case, except to the extent not prohibited under Article VI.

If any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in
contravention of this Section 8.6, such Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt
Payments shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall be paid over
or delivered to Bank for application to the payment in full in cash or cash
equivalents of all Guaranteed Obligations remaining unpaid to the extent
necessary to give effect to this Section 8.6 after giving effect to any
concurrent payments or distributions to Bank in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

(j) This guaranty is a continuing guaranty and agreement of subordination and
shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until all
commitments to extend credit by Bank to Borrower shall be terminated and payment
and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including Guaranteed
Obligations which may exist continuously or which may arise from time to time
under successive transactions, and each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly
acknowledges that this guaranty shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding that there may be periods in which no Guaranteed Obligations
exist. This guaranty shall continue in effect and be binding upon each
Subsidiary Guarantor until actual receipt by Bank of written notice from such
Subsidiary Guarantor of its intention to discontinue this guaranty as to future
transactions (which notice shall not be effective until noon on the day that is
five Business Days following such receipt); provided that no revocation or
termination of this guaranty shall affect in any way any rights of Bank
hereunder with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or outstanding on
the date of receipt of such notice, including any subsequent continuation,

 

-29-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the terms or conditions thereof, or
any Guaranteed Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or
created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Bank in existence as of the
date of such revocation (collectively, “Existing Guaranteed Obligations”), and
the sole effect of such notice shall be to exclude from this Guaranty Guaranteed
Obligations thereafter arising which are unconnected to any Existing Guaranteed
Obligations.

(k) This guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated and
revived, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations by or on behalf of Borrower (or receipt of any proceeds of
collateral) shall be rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside, voided or otherwise required to be repaid to Borrower,
its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person (including under any
Bankruptcy Law), or must otherwise be restored by Bank, whether as a result of
proceedings under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise. All losses, damages, costs
and expenses that Bank may suffer or incur as a result of any voided or
otherwise set aside payments shall be specifically covered by the indemnity in
favor of Bank contained in Section 8.3.

(l) The extensions of credit provided to or for the benefit of Borrower
hereunder by Bank have been and are to be contemporaneously used for the benefit
of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor. It is the position, intent and
expectation of the parties that Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor have
derived and will derive significant and substantial benefits from the extensions
of credit to be made available by Bank under the Loan Documents. Each Subsidiary
Guarantor has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is
used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, in Section 3439.04 of the California
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and in comparable provisions of other applicable
law) and more than sufficient consideration to support its obligations hereunder
in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Immediately prior to and after and
giving effect to the incurrence of each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under
this Guaranty, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be solvent.

(m) EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT EITHER HAS OBTAINED THE
ADVICE OF LEGAL COUNSEL OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN SUCH ADVICE IN
CONNECTION WITH THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.6. EACH SUBSIDIARY
GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EACH OF THE WAIVERS AND CONSENTS SET
FORTH HEREIN IS MADE WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ITS SIGNIFICANCE AND CONSEQUENCES,
THAT ALL SUCH WAIVERS AND CONSENTS HEREIN ARE EXPLICIT AND KNOWING AND THAT EACH
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR EXPECTS SUCH WAIVERS AND CONSENTS TO BE FULLY ENFORCEABLE.

If, while any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law is commenced by or against Borrower or its
property, Bank, is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own the
name or in the name of any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no
obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or
distribution in respect of all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give
acquittances therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other
action (including voting the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt) as it may
deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any its the
rights or interests; and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall promptly take such
action as Bank may reasonably request: (A) to collect the Subsidiary Guarantor
Subordinated Debt for the account of Bank and to file appropriate claims or
proofs of claim in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; (B) to
execute and deliver to Bank such powers of attorney, assignments and other
instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all claims with
respect to the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; and (C) to collect and
receive any and all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments.

SECTION 8.7. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents constitute the entire agreement between Borrower, each Subsidiary
Guarantor and Bank with respect to each credit subject hereto and supersede all
prior negotiations, communications, discussions and correspondence concerning
the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in
writing signed by each party hereto.

SECTION 8.8. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is made and entered
into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective permitted successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall
be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action
or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any other of the Loan Documents
to which it is not a party.

SECTION 8.9. TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this
Agreement and each other of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.10. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

SECTION 8.11. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an
original, and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same
Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by telecopy and/or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.12. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to
principles of conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the law
of any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.13. ARBITRATION.

(a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit
to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among
them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other
agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or
relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and
their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment,
modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement,
default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit.

(b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location
in California selected by the AAA; (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration
Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice
of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be
conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually
agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution
procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive
of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration
shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large,
complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the
optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to
herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any

 

-31-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures
set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to
arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and
expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a
bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar
applicable state law.

(c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The
arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose
against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies
relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession;
or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive
relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the
pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a
waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to
arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of
the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

(d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which
the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single
arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of
greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy
exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three
arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively
participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral
attorney licensed in the State of California or a neutral retired judge of the
state or federal judiciary of California, in either case with a minimum of ten
years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the
dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue
is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in
determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide
(by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any
pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state
a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all
disputes in accordance with the substantive law of California and may grant any
remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the
scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any
award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs
and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator
deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules
of Civil Procedure, the California Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable
law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for
judicial relief or pursuit of 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.

(e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in
accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters
directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later
than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the
discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final
determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is
essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for
obtaining information is available.

(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to
join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except
parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration
any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any
arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney
general capacity.

 

-32-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs
and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.

(h) Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the
dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in
part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or
security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the
arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits
that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of
California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the
parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such
indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any
such dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a
referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et
seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically
enforceable in accordance with such Section 638. A referee with the
qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the
AAA’s selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee
shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in
accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.

(i) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators
and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration
proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No
arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the
existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by
a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or
regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties
potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly
related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall
control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or
expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.

(j) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each
party retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that
court’s jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to
disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding
attorneys’ fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small
Claims Court.
