B. On May 22, 2002, Borrower entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Symmetricom, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Symmetricom”), providing for the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symmetricom with and into Borrower (the “Merger”). The Merger is scheduled to occur during the fourth quarter of 2002. Following completion of
the Merger, should it occur, Borrower will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symmetricom. 
 
C. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower and Bank have agreed to amend the Credit Agreement, and Bank has agreed to waive a provision of the Credit Agreement, in each case as
set forth below. 
 
AGREEMENT 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
benefits contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, Borrower and Bank agree as follows: 
 
1. Section 1.1. 
 
(a) The following existing definitions in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are amended to read in
full as set forth below: 
 
“Line of Credit Termination Date” means December 31, 2002. 
 
“Maximum Line of Credit Amount” means, subject to Section 2.9, (a) as of any date of determination
prior to the Merger, $10,000,000.00 and (b) as of any date from and after the date of the Merger, $3,500,000.00. 
 
(b) Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following definitions in the appropriate alphabetical locations:

 

-1- 








“Merger” means the merger of Borrower into and with a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Symmetricom pursuant to a Merger Agreement dated as of May 22, 2002 between Borrower and Symmetricom. 
 
“Symmetricom” means Symmetricom, Inc., a Delaware corporation. 
 
2. Section 2.1(d). Section 2.1(d) of the Credit
Agreement is amended to read in full as follows: 
 
(d) Letter of Credit Subfeature. 
 
(i) As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time up to and including the Line of Credit Termination Date to issue standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of
Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”); provided, however, that the form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion, and provided further, that the aggregate undrawn
amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit under this subfeature (including, without limitation, the Systems Letter of Credit) shall not at any time exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00). Each Letter of Credit shall be
issued for a term not to exceed three hundred sixty-five (365) days, as designated by Borrower; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit under this subfeature shall have an expiration date subsequent to the Line of Credit Termination Date unless
otherwise approved by Bank. In any event, should any Letter of Credit remain outstanding on the Line of Credit Termination Date, Borrower shall either (A) cause a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Bank to issue a back-up irrevocable
letter of credit, naming Bank as beneficiary, in form and substance as Bank may require with respect to each such outstanding Letter of Credit or (B) deposit with Bank an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the then aggregate
outstanding undrawn amount of all such Letters of Credit, such amount to be held as cash collateral for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 
3. Section 2.9. Section 2.9 of the Credit Agreement is deleted. 
 
4. Exhibit B. Exhibit B attached to the Credit Agreement is replaced in its entirety by Exhibit
B attached hereto as Annex 1. 
 
5.
Waiver of Section 6.5. Bank hereby waives the limitation in Section 6.5 of the Credit Agreement which provides that Borrower shall not merge into or consolidate with any other entity provided that such waiver shall extend and
apply solely to the Merger and shall not apply to any other transaction including without limitation any future merger or consolidation of Borrower into or with Symmetricom or any subsidiary of Symmetricom.

SIXTH AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING LINE OF
CREDIT NOTE 
 

	  $3,500,000.00
	  	  	  	  Irvine, California
 
October 29, 2002


 
FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned DATUM INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Bank”) at its office at Orange Coast Regional Commercial Banking Office,
2030 Main Street, Suite 900, Irvine, California 92614, or at such other place as the holder hereof may designate, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum of Three Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced and be outstanding, with interest thereon, to be computed on each advance from the date of its disbursement as set forth herein. This Note amends and restates in its entirety
that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Line of Credit Note dated May 10, 2002 executed and delivered by Borrower to the order of Bank in the original principal amount of up to $10,000,000.00 (the “Prior Note”). Amounts
outstanding and committed under the Prior Note shall, upon the effectiveness of this Note be deemed to be outstanding and committed hereunder and evidenced hereby, subject, however, to all terms and conditions hereunder and under the Credit
Agreement referred to below. This Note is the “Line of Credit Note” referred to in the Credit Agreement. 
 
DEFINITIONS: 
 
As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth after each, and any other term defined in this Note shall have the
meaning set forth at the place defined: 
 
(a)
“Business Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in California are authorized or required by law to close. 
 
(b) “Credit Agreement” means that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between
Borrower and Bank dated as of October 1, 2002, either as originally executed or as the same may from time to time be supplemented, modified, amended, restated, extended or supplemented. 
 
(c) “Fixed Rate Term” means a period commencing on a Business Day and continuing for (1) one month,
(2) months, (3) months or (6) months, as designated by Borrower, during which all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR; provided however, that no Fixed Rate Term may be
selected for a principal amount less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); and provided further, that no Fixed Rate Term shall extend beyond the scheduled maturity date hereof. If any Fixed Rate Term would end on a day which is not a
Business Day, then such Fixed Rate Term shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. 
 

-7- 








 
(d)
“LIBOR” means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest whole 1/8 of 1%) and determined pursuant to the following formula: 
 

	  LIBOR =
	  	  Base LIBOR


	  	  	  100% - LIBOR Reserve Percentage


 
(i)
“Base LIBOR” means the rate per annum for United States dollar deposits quoted by Bank as the Inter-Bank Market Offered Rate, with the understanding that such rate is quoted by Bank for the purpose of calculating effective rates of
interest for loans making reference thereto, on the first day of a Fixed Rate Term for delivery of funds on said date for a period of time approximately equal to the number of days in such Fixed Rate Term and in an amount approximately equal to the
principal amount to which such Fixed Rate Term applies. Borrower understands and agrees that Bank may base its quotation of the Inter-Bank Market Offered Rate upon such offers or other market indicators of the Inter-Bank Market as Bank in its
discretion deems appropriate including, but not limited to, the rate offered for U.S. dollar deposits on the London Inter-Bank Market. 
 
(ii) “LIBOR Reserve Percentage” means the reserve percentage prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(or any successor) for “Eurocurrency Liabilities” (as defined in Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board, as amended), adjusted by Bank for expected changes in such reserve percentage during the applicable Fixed Rate Term. 
 
(e) “Prime Rate” means at any time the rate of
interest most recently announced within Bank at its principal office as its Prime Rate, with the understanding that the Prime Rate is one of Bank’s base rates and serves as the basis upon which effective rates of interest are calculated for
those loans making reference thereto, and is evidenced by the recording thereof after its announcement in such internal publication or publications as Bank may designate. 
 
INTEREST: 
 
(a) Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the
basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) either (i) at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, or (ii) at a fixed rate per annum determined by Bank to be two and one half percent (2.50%) above LIBOR in
effect on the first day of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. When interest is determined in relation to the Prime Rate, each change in the rate of interest hereunder shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced within Bank.
With respect to each LIBOR selection hereunder, Bank is hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount, interest rate and Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Bank’s books and records (either manually or by
electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. 
 
(b) Selection of Interest Rate Options. At any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, it may
be continued by Borrower at the end of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto so that all or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate or to LIBOR for a new Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At any time any
portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate, 
 

-8- 








Borrower may convert all or a portion thereof so that it bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR
for a Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At such time as Borrower requests an advance hereunder or wishes to select a LIBOR option for all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance hereof, and at the end of each Fixed Rate Term,
Borrower shall give Bank notice specifying: (i) the interest rate option selected by Borrower; (ii) the principal amount subject thereto; and (iii) for each LIBOR selection, the length of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. Any such notice may be given
by telephone (or such other electronic method as Bank may permit) so long as, with respect to each LIBOR selection, (A) if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three (3) Business Days after such
notice is given, and (B) such notice is given to Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. on the first day of the Fixed Rate Term, or at a later time during any Business Day if Bank, at it’s sole option but without obligation to do so, accepts Borrower’s
notice and quotes a fixed rate to Borrower. If Borrower does not immediately accept a fixed rate when quoted by Bank, the quoted rate shall expire and any subsequent LIBOR request from Borrower shall be subject to a redetermination by Bank of the
applicable fixed rate. If no specific designation of interest is made at the time any advance is requested hereunder or at the end of any Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Prime Rate interest selection for such advance or the
principal amount to which such Fixed Rate Term applied. 
 
(c) Limitation on LIBOR Portions. Unless Bank otherwise consents, no more than one (1) portion of the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest in relation to Bank’s LIBOR at any time. 
 
(d) Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Borrower shall pay to
Bank immediately upon demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or
foreign governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental, emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar
requirements or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and
related in any manner to LIBOR to the extent they are not included in the calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any LIBOR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among
its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower. 
 
(e) Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be payable on the first day of each month, commencing November 1, 2002. 
 
(f) Default Interest. From and after the maturity date of this Note, or such earlier date as all principal owing hereunder becomes
due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest until paid in full at an increased rate per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) equal to four percent
(4%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note. 
 

-9- 








 
BORROWING AND REPAYMENT: 
 
(a)
Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Note borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of any
document executed in connection with or governing this Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under this Note shall not at any time exceed the principal amount stated above. The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at
any time shall be the total amounts advanced hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed hereon from time to time by the holder. The outstanding principal balance
of this Note shall be due and payable in full on December 31, 2002. 
 
(b) Advances. Advances hereunder, to the total amount of the principal sum stated above, may be made by the holder at the oral or written request of (i) Erik H. van der Kaay or Chris Felfe or Robert Krist, any one
acting alone, who are authorized to request advances and direct the disposition of any advances until written notice of the revocation of such authority is received by the holder at the office designated above, or (ii) any person, with respect to
advances deposited to the credit of any deposit account of Borrower, which advances, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower regardless of the fact that persons other than those
authorized to request advances may have authority to draw against such account. The holder shall have no obligation to determine whether any person requesting an advance is or has been authorized by Borrower. 
 
(c) Application of Payments. Each payment made on this
Note shall be credited first, to any interest then due and second, to the outstanding principal balance hereof. All payments credited to principal shall be applied first, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest
determined in relation to the Prime Rate, if any, and second, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, with such payments applied to the oldest Fixed Rate Term first. 
 
PREPAYMENT: 
 
(a) Prime Rate. Borrower may prepay principal on any
portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate at any time, in any amount and without penalty. 
 
(b) LIBOR. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR at any
time and in the minimum amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00); provided however, that if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be the entire
outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the Fixed Rate Term applicable
thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such Fixed Rate Term
matures, calculated as follows for each such month: 
 

-10- 








(i) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the
amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto. 
 
(ii) Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the
amount prepaid for the remaining term of such Fixed Rate Term at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid. 
 
(iii) If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater
than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above. 
 
Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities.
Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described prepayment fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the prepayment costs, expenses and/or liabilities of Bank. If Borrower fails to pay any prepayment fee when due,
the amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate per annum four percent (4.00%) above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). Each change in the
rate of interest on any such past due prepayment fee shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced within Bank. 
 
EVENTS OF DEFAULT: 
 
This Note is made pursuant to and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Any default in the payment or
performance of any obligation under this Note, or any defined event of default under the Credit Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note. 
 
MISCELLANEOUS: 
 
(a) Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the holder of this Note, at the
holder’s option, may declare all sums of principal and interest outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are
expressly waived by Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder to extend any further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate. Borrower shall pay to the holder immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances,
charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of the holder’s in-house counsel), expended or incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the
holder’s rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to the holder under this Note, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to this Note, including without limitation, any action for declaratory relief,
whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested
matter or motion brought by Bank or any other person) relating to Borrower or any other person or entity. 
 

-11- 








 
(b)
Obligations Joint and Several. Should more than one person or entity sign this Note as a Borrower, the obligations of each such Borrower shall be joint and several. 
 
(c) Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of California. 
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
undersigned has executed this Note as of the date first written above.
