13.  NO DEFENSES OF BORROWER.  Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has no
     -----------------------
defenses against the obligations to pay any amounts under the Obligations.

14.  CONTINUING VALIDITY.  Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the
     -------------------
existing Obligations, Bank is relying upon Borrower's representations,
warranties, and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Loan Documents.  Except
as expressly modified pursuant to this Loan Modification Agreement, the terms of
the Existing Loan Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
Bank's agreement to modifications to the existing Obligations pursuant to this
Loan Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Bank to make any future
modifications to the Obligations.  Nothing in this Loan Modification Agreement
shall constitute a satisfaction of the Obligations.  It is the intention of Bank
and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers of Existing Loan Documents,
unless the party is expressly released by Bank in writing.  No maker will be
released by virtue of this Loan Modification Agreement.

15.  RIGHT OF SET-OFF.  In consideration of Bank's agreement to enter into this
     ----------------
Loan Modification Agreement, Borrower and any guarantor hereby reaffirm and
hereby grant to Bank, a lien, security interest and right of setoff as security
for all Obligations to Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and
against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the
possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Bank or any entity under the
control of Silicon Valley Bank or in transit to any of them.  At any time after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand
or notice, Bank may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to
any liability or obligation of Borrower and any guarantor even though unmatured
and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the loan.  ANY
AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT
TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS
RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE
BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY
WAIVED.

16.  JURISDICTION/VENUE.  Borrower accepts for itself and in connection with its
     ------------------
properties, unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state or
federal court of competent jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in
any action, suit, or proceeding of any kind against it which arises out of or by
reason of this Loan Modification Agreement; provided, however, that if for any
reason Bank cannot avail itself of the courts of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, then venue shall lie in Santa Clara County, California.

17.  COUNTERSIGNATURE.  This Loan Modification Agreement shall become effective
     ----------------
only when it shall have been executed by Borrower and Bank (provided, however,
in no event shall this Loan Modification Agreement become effective until signed
by an officer of Bank in California).
