Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof, at a
rate equal to the Prime Rate.

(10) days after the date such payment is due, Borrowers shall pay Bank a late
fee equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid
amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law.
All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage
points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of
the Event of Default.

             (c) Payments. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the
first calendar day of each month during the term hereof. Bank shall, at its
option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic payments
against any of a Borrower's deposit accounts or against the Revolving Line, in
which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then
applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by
becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue
interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. All payments shall be free and
clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the
end that. Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable
hereunder, regardless of source of payment.

             (d) Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time
to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased
or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount
equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan
Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year
for the actual number of days elapsed.

         2.4 Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to

Responsible Officer of Borrower becomes aware thereof; provided, however, that
if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten business day period
or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such ten business
day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time,
then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not in any
case exceed 30 days unless otherwise agreed in writing by Bank) to attempt to
cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to have
cured such default shall not be deemed an Event of Default but no Credit
Extensions will be made.

         8.3 Material Adverse Effect. If there occurs any circumstance or
circumstances that could have a Material Adverse Effect;



                                                                            -21-

been removed, discharged or rescinded within ten (10) days, or if a Borrower is
enjoined, restrained, or in anyway prevented by court order from continuing to
conduct all or any material part of its business affairs, or if a judgment or

within ten (10) days after a Borrower receives notice thereof, provided that
none of the foregoing shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or
event is stayed or an adequate bond has been posted pending a good faith contest
by Borrowers (provided that no Credit Extensions will be required to be made
during such cure period);

unable to pay its obligations as they become due), or if an Insolvency
Proceeding is commenced by a Borrower, or if an Insolvency Proceeding is
commenced against a Borrower and is not dismissed or stayed within thirty (30)
days (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the dismissal of
such Insolvency Proceeding);

         8.6 Other Agreements. If there is a default or other failure to perform
in any agreement to which a Borrower is a party or by which it is bound

Extensions will be made prior to the satisfaction or stay of such judgment); or

other Loan Document.

         9.  BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

             9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may at its elections without notice of
its election and without demand do any one or more of the following, all of
which are authorized by each Borrower:

                 (a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this
Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in
Section 8.5, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without
any action by Bank);

                 (b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the
benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between
Borrower and Bank;

                 (c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account
debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably
considers advisable;

                 (d) Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers
necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral.
Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the
Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to
enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain
possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest,
or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank's determination
appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses
incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower's owned
premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such
premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of
Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

                 (e) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i)
balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time
owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank;

                 (f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in
connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's
benefit;

                 (g) Dispose of the Collateral by way of one or more contracts
or transactions, for cash or on terms; in such manner and at such places
(including Borrower's premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable,
and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems
appropriate;



                                                                            -23-
<PAGE>

                 (h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and

                 (i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.

             9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower hereby irrevocably
appoints Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as such
Borrower's true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of
Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts;
(b) endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security
that may come into Bank's possession; (c) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or
bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors,
schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to
account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all
claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; (f)
settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with
account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be
reasonable; and (g) to file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or
continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the
Collateral; provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name
of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of
whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as each
Borrower's attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank's rights and powers,
being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have
been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide Credit
Extensions hereunder is terminated.

             9.3 Accounts Collection. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to a
Borrower of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such
Account. Each Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to such Borrower for
Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank's trustee, and immediately deliver
such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account
debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

             9.4 Bank Expenses. If a Borrower fails to pay any amounts or
furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as
required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the
following after reasonable notice to Borrowers: (a) make payment of the same or
any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under a loan facility in Section 2.1
as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such
failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in
Section 6.6 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies
as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute
Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at
the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the
Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank
to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default under this Agreement.

             9.5 Bank's Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with
reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage
thereto occurring or arising in any manner or



                                                                            -24-
<PAGE>

fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof or (d) any act
or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other
person whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral
shall be borne by Borrowers except to the extent such loss, damage or
destruction was caused by Bank's gross negligence or misconduct.

             9.6 Remedies Cumulative. Bank's rights and remedies under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right
or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default on a Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by
Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by
Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of
Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which it was given.

             9.7 Demand; Protest. Each Borrower waives demand, protest, notice
of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment,
notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement,
extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and
guarantees at any time held by Bank on which a Borrower may in any way be
liable.

obligation of each Borrower and shall remain in effect notwithstanding future
changes in conditions, including any change of law or any invalidity or
irregularity in the creation or acquisition of any Obligations or in the
execution or delivery of any agreement between Bank and any Borrower. Each
Borrower shall be liable for existing and future Obligations as fully as if all
of all Credit Extensions were advanced to such Borrower. Bank may rely on any
certificate or representation made by any Borrower as made on behalf of, and
binding on, all Borrowers, including without limitation Disbursement Request
Forms, Borrowing Base Certificates and Compliance Certificates.



                                                                            -27-
<PAGE>

as its agent with all necessary power and authority to give and receive notices,
certificates or demands for and on behalf of both Borrowers, to act as
disbursing agent for receipt of any Credit Extensions on behalf of each Borrower
and to apply to Bank on behalf of each Borrower for Credit Extensions, any
waivers and any consents. This authorization cannot be revoked, and Bank need
not inquire as to each Borrower's authority to act for or on behalf of Borrower.

             13.4 Subrogation and Similar Rights. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Borrower
irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including,
without limitation, any law subrogating the Borrower to the rights of Bank under
the Loan Documents) to seek contribution, indemnification, or any other form of
reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter
primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made
by the Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan
Documents or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to
participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made
by the Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan
Documents or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification,
reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section 12.4 shall
be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this
Section 12.4, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such
payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations,
whether matured or unmatured.

             13.5 Waivers of Notice. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, each Borrower waives notice of acceptance hereof; notice of the
existence, creation or acquisition of any of the Obligations; notice of an Event
of Default; notice of the amount of the Obligations outstanding at any time;
notice of intent to accelerate; notice of acceleration; notice of any adverse
change in the financial condition of any other Borrower or of any other fact
that might increase the Borrower's risk; presentment for payment; demand;
protest and notice thereof as to any instrument; default; and all other notices
and demands to which the Borrower would otherwise be entitled. Each Borrower
waives any defense arising from any defense of any other Borrower, or by reason
of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other
Borrower. Bank's failure at any time to require strict performance by any
Borrower of any provision of the loan Documents shall not waive, alter or
diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance therewith. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Bank from
foreclosing on the Lien of any deed of trust, mortgage or other security
instrument, or exercising any rights available thereunder, and the exercise of
any such rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any
Borrower. Each Borrower also waives any defense arising from any act or omission
of Bank that changes the scope of the Borrower's risks hereunder.



                                                                            -28-
<PAGE>

             13.6 Subrogation Defenses. Each Borrower hereby waives any defense
based on impairment or destruction of its subrogation or other rights against
any other Borrower and waives all benefits which might otherwise be available to
it under California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2848,
2849, 2850, 2899, and 3433 and California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a,
580b, 580d and 726, as those statutory provisions are now in effect and
hereafter amended, and under any other similar statutes now and hereafter in
effect.

             13.7 Right to Settle, Release.

                  (a) The liability of Borrowers hereunder shall not be
diminished by (i) any agreement, understanding or representation that any of the
Obligations is or was to be guaranteed by another Person or secured by other
property, or (ii) any release or unenforceability, whether partial or total, of
rights, if any, which Bank may now or hereafter have against any other Person,
including another Borrower, or property with respect to any of the Obligations.

                  (b) Without affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder,
Bank may (i) compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change the
manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or
release all or any of the Obligations with respect to a Borrower, (ii) grant
other indulgences to a Borrower in respect of the Obligations, (iii) modify in
any manner any documents relating to the Obligations with respect to a Borrower,
(iv) release, surrender or exchange any deposits or other property securing the
Obligations, whether pledged by a Borrower or any other Person, or (v)
compromise, settle, renew, or extend the time for payment, discharge the
performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any obligations of any
guarantor; endorser or other Person who is now or may hereafter be liable with
respect to any of the Obligations.

             13.8 Subordination. All indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter
arising held by another Borrower is subordinated to the Obligations and the
Borrower holding the indebtedness shall take all actions reasonably requested by
Lender to effect, to enforce and to give notice of such subordination.



                                                                            -29-

Litigation (Section 5.8)

         On November 14, 2001, a shareholder class action complaint was filed in
the United States District Court, Southern District of New York. On April 19,
2002, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint asserts that
the prospectus from the Company's February 10, 2000 initial public offering
("IPO") failed to disclose certain alleged improper actions by various
underwriters for the offering in the allocation of the IPO shares. The amended
complaint alleges claims against certain underwriters, the Company and certain
officers and directors under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (Bartula v. XCare.net, Inc., et al., Case No. 01-CV-10075).
Similar complaints have been filed concerning more than 300 other IPO's; all of
these cases have been coordinated as In re Initial Public Offering Securities
Litigation, 21 MC 92, In a negotiated agreement, individual defendants,
including all of the individuals named in the complaint filed against the
Company, were dismissed without prejudice, subject to a tolling agreement.
Issuer and underwriter defendants in these cases filed motions to dismiss and,
on February 19, 2003, the Court issued an opinion and order on those motions
that dismissed selected claims against certain defendants, including the Rule
l0b-5 fraud claims against the Company, leaving only the Section 11 strict
liability claims under the Securities Act of 1933 against the Company. A
committee of our Board of Directors has approved a settlement proposal made by
the plaintiffs, but the settlement is subject to a number of conditions. If the
settlement is not achieved, the Company will continue to aggressively defend the
claims. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses. We do not believe that
the outcome of this action will have a material adverse effect on our financial
position, results of operations or liquidity; however, litigation is inherently
uncertain and we can make no assurance as to the ultimate outcome or effect.
