FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Magma Design Automation, Inc. (Borrower) promises to pay to the order
of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (Bank) at its office at Santa Clara Valley RCBO, 121 Park Center Plaza, Second Floor, San Jose, CA 95113, 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 $15,000,000.00, 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.



|1. | 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:

1.1     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.

1.2     Fixed Rate Term means a period commencing on a Business Day and continuing for 1, 2 or 3 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 $100,000.00; 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.

1.3     LIBOR means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest whole 1/8 of 1%) determined by dividing
Base LIBOR by a percentage equal to 100% less any LIBOR Reserve Percentage.

(a)    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.

(b)    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.

1.4     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.

|2. | INTEREST:
|-- | ---------

2.1     Interest.  The
outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) either (a) at a fluctuating rate per annum 2.50000% above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, or
(b) at a fixed rate per annum determined by Bank to be 2.50000% 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 option selected 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.

2.2     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, 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: (a) the interest rate option selected by Borrower; (b) the principal amount subject thereto; and (c) 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, (i) if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than 3 Business Days after such notice is given,
and (ii) 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.

2.3     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 (a) 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 (b) 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.

2.4     Payment of Interest.  Interest accrued on this Note shall be
payable on the last day of each month, commencing November 30, 2008.

2.5     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 4% above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note.

|3. | BORROWING AND REPAYMENT:
|-- | ------------------------

3.1     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 the Credit
Agreement between Borrower and Bank defined below; 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, 2009.

3.2     Advances.  Advances hereunder, to the
total amount of the principal sum available hereunder, may be made by the holder at the oral or written request of (a) Peter Teshima or Greg S. Wagenhoffer, anyone 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 (b) 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.

3.3     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.



|4. | PREPAYMENT:
|-- | -----------

4.1     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.

4.2     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 $100,000.00; 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:

(a)    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.

(b)    Subtract
from the amount determined in (a) 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.

(c)    If the result obtained in (b) for any month is
greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (b) 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 2.000% above the Prime Rate in effect from time
to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed).



|5. | EVENTS OF DEFAULT:
|-- | ------------------

This Note is made pursuant to and is
subject to the terms and conditions of that certain Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as of October 31, 2008, as amended from time to time (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.



|6. | MISCELLANEOUS:
|-- | --------------

6.1     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.

6.2     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.

6.3     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.

|            |  | SECURITY AGREEMENT        
|WELLS FARGO |  | SPECIFIC RIGHTS TO PAYMENT

1.     GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.  For valuable consideration, the undersigned Magma
Design Automation, Inc., or any of them (Debtor), hereby grants and transfers to WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (Bank) a security interest in the following accounts, deposit accounts, chattel paper (whether
electronic or tangible), instruments, promissory notes, documents, general intangibles, payment intangibles, software, letter of credit rights, health-care insurance receivables and other rights to payment (collectively called
Collateral):

All funds, including both principal and interest, evidenced by Wells Fargo Bank certificate of deposit #6834998673 dated
11/21/08, and all renewals thereof, whether or not any such renewal is evidenced by a certificate of deposit. The amount of such funds shall at all times be equal to the amount of the Overadvance, as defined in the Credit Agreement dated as

and all renewals thereof, including all securities,
guaranties, warranties, indemnity agreements, insurance policies, supporting obligations and other agreements pertaining to the same or the property described therein, together with whatever is receivable or received when any of the Collateral or
proceeds thereof are sold, collected, exchanged or otherwise disposed of, whether such disposition is voluntary or involuntary, including without limitation, all rights to payment, including returned premiums, with respect to any insurance relating
to any of the foregoing, and all rights to payment with respect to any claim or cause of action affecting or relating to any of the foregoing (hereinafter called Proceeds).

hereunder. Any money received by Bank in respect of the Collateral may be deposited, at Banks option, into a non-interest bearing account over which Debtor shall have no control, and the same shall, for all purposes, be deemed Collateral
hereunder.

otherwise extend credit to Debtor. Bank shall have all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the California Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise provided by law, including without limitation, the
right (a) to contact all persons obligated to Debtor on any Collateral or Proceeds and to instruct such persons to deliver all Collateral and/or Proceeds directly to Bank, and (b) to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any or all
Collateral. All rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Bank shall be cumulative. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Bank in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power,
privilege or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy. Any
waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Bank of any default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing. It is agreed that public
or private sales or other dispositions, for cash or on credit, to a wholesaler or retailer or investor, or user of property of the types subject to this Agreement, or public auctions, are all commercially reasonable since differences in the prices
generally realized in the different kinds of dispositions are ordinarily offset by the differences in the costs and credit risks of such dispositions.

While an
Event of Default exists: (a) Debtor will deliver to Bank from time to time, as requested by Bank, current lists of all Collateral and Proceeds; (b) Debtor will not dispose of any Collateral or Proceeds except on terms approved by Bank;
(c) Bank may, at any time and at Banks sole option, liquidate any time deposits pledged to Bank hereunder and apply the Proceeds thereof to payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not said time deposits have matured and notwithstanding
the fact that such liquidation may give rise to penalties for early withdrawal of funds; and (d) at Banks request, Debtor will assemble and deliver all Collateral and Proceeds, and books and records pertaining thereto, to Bank at a
reasonably convenient place designated by Bank. Debtor further agrees that Bank shall have no obligation to process or prepare any Collateral for sale or other disposition.

11.   DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL AND PROCEEDS; TRANSFER OF INDEBTEDNESS.  In disposing of Collateral
hereunder, Bank may disclaim all warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like. Any proceeds of any disposition of any Collateral or Proceeds, or any part thereof, may be applied by Bank to the payment of expenses incurred by Bank in
connection with the foregoing, including reasonable attorneys fees, and the balance of such proceeds may be applied by Bank toward the payment of the Indebtedness in such order of application as Bank may from time to time elect. Upon the
transfer of all or any part of the Indebtedness, Bank may transfer all or any part of the Collateral or Proceeds and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability and responsibility with respect to any of the foregoing so transferred, and
the transferee shall be vested with all rights and powers of Bank hereunder with respect to any of the foregoing so transferred; but with respect to any Collateral or Proceeds not so transferred Bank shall retain all rights, powers, privileges and
remedies herein given.

12.   STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS.  Until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full and all commitments by Bank to
extend credit to Debtor have been terminated, the power of sale or other disposition and all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to Bank hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Bank at any time and from time to
time irrespective of the fact that the Indebtedness or any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations, or that the personal liability of Debtor may have ceased, unless such liability shall have ceased due to the payment in
full of all Indebtedness secured hereunder.

13.   MISCELLANEOUS.  When there is more than one Debtor named herein: (a) the word
Debtor shall mean all or anyone or more of them as the context requires; (b) the obligations of each Debtor hereunder are joint and several; and (c) until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, no Debtor shall have any
right of subrogation or contribution, and each Debtor hereby waives any benefit of or right to participate in any of the Collateral or Proceeds or any other security now or hereafter held by Bank. Debtor hereby waives any right to require Bank to
(i) proceed against Debtor or any other person, (ii) marshal assets or proceed against or exhaust any security from Debtor or any other person, (iii) perform any obligation of Debtor with respect to any Collateral or Proceeds, and
(d) make any presentment or demand, or give any notice of nonpayment or nonperformance, protest, notice of protest or notice of dishonor hereunder or in connection with any Collateral or Proceeds. Debtor further waives any right to direct the
application of payments or security for any Indebtedness of Debtor or indebtedness of customers of Debtor.

14.    NOTICES.  All notices,
requests and demands required under this Agreement must be in writing, addressed to Bank at the address specified in any other loan documents entered into between Debtor and Bank and to Debtor at the address of its chief executive office (or
principal residence, if applicable) specified below or to such other address as any party may designate by written notice to each other party, and shall be deemed to have been given or made as follows: (a) if personally delivered, upon
delivery; (b) if sent by mail, upon the earlier of the date of receipt or 3 days after deposit in the U. S. mail, first class and postage prepaid; and (c) if sent by telecopy, upon receipt.

15.   COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS FEES.  Debtor shall pay to Bank 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 Banks in-house counsel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with (a) the perfection and preservation of the
Collateral or Banks interest therein, and (b) the realization, enforcement and exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy conferred by this Agreement, 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 Debtor or in
any way affecting any of the Collateral or Banks ability to exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto. All of the foregoing shall be paid by Debtor with interest from the date of demand until paid in full at a rate per annum
equal to the greater of ten percent (10%) or Banks Prime Rate in effect from time to time.

16.   SUCCESSORS; ASSIGNS;
AMENDMENT.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties, and may be amended or modified only in writing signed by Bank

CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is entered into as of October 31, 2008, by and between MAGMA DESIGN AUTOMATION, INC., a Delaware corporation (Borrower), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
(Bank).

RECITALS

Borrower has
requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below, and Bank has agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

CREDIT TERMS

SECTION 1.1.    LINE OF CREDIT.

(a)     Line of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including December 31, 2009, not to
exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00) (Line of Credit), the proceeds of which shall be used first, to refinance Borrowers existing debt with Bank and second, to finance
Borrowers working capital requirement. Borrowers obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of October 31, 2008 (Line of Credit Note), all terms of which are
incorporated herein by this reference.

(b)     Limitation on Borrowings.  Outstanding borrowings and
Letter of Credit liabilities under the Line of Credit (collectively Outstandings), to a maximum of the principal amount set forth above, shall not at any time exceed an aggregate of eighty percent (80%) of Borrowers eligible
accounts receivable (the Borrowing Base) plus an additional amount not to exceed $3,000,000.00. All of the foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon receipt and review of all collateral reports required hereunder and such other
documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time require. Borrower acknowledges that said borrowing base was established by Bank with the understanding that, among other items, the aggregate of all returns, rebates, discounts,
credits and allowances for the immediately preceding three (3) months at all times shall be less than five percent (5%) of Borrowers gross sales for said period. If such dilution of Borrowers accounts for the immediately
preceding three (3) months at any time exceeds five percent (5%) of Borrowers gross sales for said period, or if there at any time exists any other matters, events, conditions or contingencies which Bank reasonably believes may
affect payment of any portion of Borrowers accounts, Bank, in its sole discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against eligible accounts receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect such additional dilution and/or establish
additional reserves against Borrowers eligible accounts receivable.

As used herein, eligible accounts receivable shall consist
solely of trade accounts created in the ordinary course of Borrowers business, upon which Borrowers right to receive payment is absolute and not contingent upon the fulfillment of any condition whatsoever, and in which Bank has a
perfected security interest of first priority, and shall not include:

(i)    any account which is unpaid more
than 90 days after invoice date or, if the payment term is less than net 30 days, which is unpaid more than 3 times the payment term;



|                                                  |  |     |  |

---

(ii)   that portion of any account for which there exists any right of setoff,
defense or discount (except regular discounts allowed in the ordinary course of business to promote prompt payment) or for which any defense or counterclaim has been asserted;

(iii)   any account which represents an obligation of any state or municipal government or of the United States government or any
political subdivision thereof (except accounts which represent obligations of the United States government and for which the assignment provisions of the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, as amended or recodified from time to time, have been
complied with to Banks satisfaction);

(iv)   any account which represents an obligation of an account debtor
located in a foreign country other than an account debtor located in a Canadian province or territory, so long as, in Banks determination, such Canadian jurisdiction recognizes Banks first priority security interest in and right to
collect such account as a consequence of any security agreements and UCC filings in favor of Bank, except to the extent any such account, in Banks determination, is supported by a letter of credit or insured under a policy of foreign credit
insurance, in each case in form, substance and issued by a party acceptable to Bank;

(v)   any account which arises
from the sale or lease to or performance of services for, or represents an obligation of, an employee, affiliate, partner, member, parent or subsidiary of Borrower;

(vi)   that portion of any account, which represents interim or progress billings or retention rights on the part of the account
debtor;

(vii)  any account which represents an obligation of any account debtor when twenty percent (20%) or more of
Borrowers accounts from such account debtor are not eligible pursuant to (i) above;

(viii)  that portion of any
account from an account debtor which represents the amount by which Borrowers total accounts from said account debtor exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of Borrowers total accounts;

(ix)   any account deemed ineligible by Bank when Bank, in its sole discretion, deems the creditworthiness or financial condition of
the account debtor, or the industry in which the account debtor is engaged, to be unsatisfactory.

The amount by which Outstandings at any time exceed the Borrowing
Base is referred to as the Overadvance.

(c)     Letter of Credit Subfeature.  As a subfeature
under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate 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 aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00). The form

and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date subsequent to
the maturity date of the Line of Credit, except existing Letters of Credit numbered 584969 and 587968 for $200,000.00 and $1,500,000.00, respectively, which are deemed to have been issued hereunder. To the extent that the subject Line of Credit
terminates for any reason prior to expiration of Letters of Credit, Borrower shall pledge cash collateral maintained at Bank equal to 100% of the stated amount of all such Letters of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be
reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required
by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable
to such advances; provided however, 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.

(d)     Borrowing and
Repayment.  Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in
the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above.

SECTION 1.2.    INTEREST/FEES.

(a)     Interest.  The outstanding principal balance of each credit subject hereto shall bear interest at the rate of interest set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document
executed in connection therewith.

(b)     Computation and Payment.  Interest shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed. Interest shall be payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby.

(c)     Commitment Fee.  Borrower shall pay to Bank a non-refundable commitment fee for the Line of Credit equal to Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00), which fee shall be due and payable in full on the date of this Agreement.

(d)     Unused
Commitment Fee.  Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to one-eighth percent (0.125%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) on the average daily unused amount of the Line of Credit, which fee shall
be calculated on a quarterly basis by Bank and shall be due and payable by Borrower in arrears within ten (10) days after each billing is sent by Bank.

(e)     Letter of Credit Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Bank (i) fees upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit equal to two percent (2.00%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day
year, actual days elapsed) of the face amount thereof, and (ii) fees upon the payment or negotiation of each drawing under any Letter of Credit and fees upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter of Credit (including
without limitation, the transfer, amendment or cancellation of any Letter of Credit) determined in accordance with Banks standard fees and charges then in effect for such activity.

SECTION 1.3.    COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS.  Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all
interest and fees due under each credit subject hereto by charging Borrowers deposit account number 4050-015742 with Bank, or any other deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank, for the full amount thereof. Should there be insufficient
funds in any such deposit account to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower.

SECTION 1.4.    COLLATERAL.

As security for all indebtedness and other obligations of Borrower to Bank subject hereto,
Borrower hereby grants to Bank security interests of first priority in all Borrowers accounts receivable, and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, provided however that notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank
disclaims a security interest in any of Debtors intellectual property (other than proceeds, accounts, payment intangibles, and other rights to payment related to intellectual property). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the first sentence of
Section 5.6. (entitled Double Negative Pledge) shall continue to apply, subject to the exceptions therein, to all of Borrowers assets, including its intellectual property.

In addition, upon the occurrence of an Overadvance, Borrower shall, within 5 calendar days, establish with and grant to Bank a security interest in a deposit
account with a balance therein at all times equal to the amount of the Overadvance, failing which Borrower shall immediately repay the Overadvance.

All of the foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such security agreements, financing statements, deeds or mortgages, and other documents as Bank shall reasonably require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank.
Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third parties and all allocated costs of Bank personnel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the
foregoing security, including without limitation, filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.

(b)     Governing Rules.  Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in
California selected by the American Arbitration Association (MA); (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 MA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the MA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 MA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 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.

(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 said 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.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date and year first written above.
