NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and
intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             Definitions. 
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the
meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

2.             Amendments to Loan Agreement.

 

2.1          Section 2.1.2 (Advances). Section 2.1.2  of the Loan
Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“2.1.2     Requesting Advances.

 

(a)           Subject
to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of
an Advance set forth in this Agreement, each Advance shall be made upon
Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to Bank, by original 

 

1

 

document, facsimile or
electronic delivery, in the form of a Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B
(the “Notice of Borrowing”), each executed by
a Responsible Officer of Borrower or his or her designee or without written
instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have
become due.  Bank will credit Advances to
Borrower’s deposit account.  Each Advance
shall, at Borrower’s option in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be
either in the form of a Prime Rate Advance or a LIBOR Advance.  Bank may make Advances under this Agreement
without instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which
have become due.  Bank may rely on any
telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer
or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such
reliance.  Such Notice of Borrowing must
be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time, (i) at least three (3) Business
Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Advances, and (ii) at least
one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of
Prime Rate Advances, specifying:

 

(1)           the amount of the Advance, which, if a LIBOR Advance is requested,
shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $500,000 or in any
integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof;

 

(2)           the requested Funding Date;

 

(3)           whether the Advance is to be comprised of LIBOR Advances or Prime Rate
Advances; and

 

(4)           the duration of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR
Advances included in such notice; provided that
if the Notice of Borrowing shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest
Period for any Advance comprised of LIBOR Advances, such Interest Period shall
be one (1) month.

 

The proceeds of all such Advances will then
be made available to Borrower on the Funding Date by Bank by transfer to the
Deposit Account designated by Borrower and, subsequently, by wire transfer to
such other account as Borrower may instruct in the Notice of Borrowing.  No Advances shall be deemed made to Borrower,
and no interest shall accrue on any such Advance, until the related funds have
been deposited in the Deposit Account designated by Borrower.

 

(b)           Conversion and Continuation Elections.

 

(i)            So long as (x) no Event of Default or
Default exists; (y) Borrower shall not have sent any notice of termination
of this Agreement; and (z) Borrower shall have complied with such
customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for Borrower’s
requests for LIBOR Advances, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to
Bank:

 

(1)           elect to convert on any Business Day, Prime Rate Advances in an amount
equal to $500,000 or any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof into
LIBOR Advances;

 

2

 

(2)           elect to continue on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Advances
maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal
to $500,000 or any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof); provided that if the aggregate amount of LIBOR Advances
shall have been reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof,
to be less than $500,000, such LIBOR Advances shall automatically convert into
Prime Rate Advances, and on and after such date the right of Borrower to
continue such Advances as, and convert such Advances into, LIBOR Advances shall
terminate; or

 

(3)           elect to convert on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Advances
maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal
to $500,000 or any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof) into Prime
Rate Advances.

 

(ii)            Borrower shall deliver a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 10
to be received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time at least (i) three (3) Business
Days in advance of the Conversion Date or Continuation Date, if any Advances
are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Advances; and (ii) one (1) Business
Day in advance of the Conversion Date, if any Advances are to be converted into
Prime Rate Advances, in each case specifying the:

 

(1)           proposed
Conversion Date or Continuation Date;

 

(2)           aggregate
amount of the Advances to be converted or continued which, if any Advances are
to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Advances, shall be in an aggregate
minimum principal amount of $500,000 or in any integral multiple of $100,000 in
excess thereof;

 

(3)           nature
of the proposed conversion or continuation; and

 

(4)           duration
of the requested Interest Period.

 

(iii)           If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR
Advances, Borrower shall have timely failed to select a new Interest Period to
be applicable to such LIBOR Advances, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected
to convert such LIBOR Advances into Prime Rate Advances.

 

(iv)           Any LIBOR Advances shall, at Bank’s option, convert into Prime Rate
Advances in the event that (i) an Event of Default or Default shall exist,
or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Prime Rate Advances which
have been previously converted to LIBOR Advances, or the aggregate principal
amount of existing LIBOR Advances continued, as the case may be, at the
beginning of an Interest Period shall at any time during such Interest Period
exceed the Committed Non-Formula Revolving Line.  Borrower agrees to pay Bank, upon demand by
Bank (or Bank may, at its option, charge the Borrower’s Deposit Account or any
other account Borrower maintains with Bank) any 

 

3

 

amounts required to
compensate Bank for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost, or
expense incurred by Bank, as a result of the conversion of LIBOR Advances to
Prime Rate Advances pursuant to any of the foregoing.

 

(v)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Bank shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar
deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable LIBOR market to
fund any LIBOR Advances, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as
if Bank had purchased such deposits to fund the LIBOR Advances.”

 

2.2          Section 2.1.6 (Prepayment and Repayment).  Section 2.1.6 is amended in
its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“2.1.6     Prepayment and Repayment.

 

“(a)         Prepayment and Repayment of Prime Rate
Advances.  Borrower may prepay any or
all amounts owing under the Committed Non-Formula Revolving Line without
penalty or premium by paying all principal and accrued interest as of the date
of prepayment.

 

(b)           Prepayment
and Repayment of LIBOR Advances. 
Borrower may, upon three (3) business days written notice to Bank,
prepay any or all amounts owing under the Committed Non-Formula Revolving Line
provided Borrower pays, on the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and
unpaid interest with respect to the prepaid portion of the Committed
Non-Formula Revolving Line through the date the prepayment is made; (ii) 
the amount of the Committed Non-Formula Revolving Line which Borrower elected
to prepay plus any other amounts due and payable to Bank on such date, pursuant
to this Agreement;  and (iii) all
other sums owing to Bank, including
Bank Expenses, and all other fees and expenses incurred pursuant to Section 3.4(a), that shall have become due and
payable hereunder with respect to this Agreement.”

 

2.3          Section 2.1.7 (Equipment Advances).  Section 2.1.7
is amended in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“2.1.7    [Intentionally Omitted.]”

 

2.4          Section 2.1.8 (Second Equipment Advances).  Section 2.1.8 is amended in its entirety
and replaced with the following:

 

“2.1.8    [Intentionally Omitted.]”

 

2.5          Section 2.3  (Interest Rate; Payments).  Section 2.3 is amended in its entirety
and replaced with the following:

 

“(a)         Choice
of Advances.  Each Advance shall, at Borrower’s option in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be either in the form of a Prime
Rate Advance or a LIBOR Advance; provided that
in no event shall Borrower maintain at any time LIBOR Advances having more than
five (5) different 

 

4

 

Interest Periods. Borrower
shall pay interest accrued on the Advances at the rates and in the manner set
forth in Section 2.3(b)(i).

 

(b)           Interest
Computation.  Interest on the Credit Extensions and all
fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the
actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues.  In computing interest on any Credit
Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included
and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however,
that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made,
such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.

 

(c)           Interest
Rates.  Each
Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from
the date when made, continued or converted until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to (A) with respect to Prime Rate
Advances, the greater of: (y) six percent (6.00%) and (z) the Prime
Rate plus the Prime Rate Margin, or (B) the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR Rate
Margin, as the case may be.  On and after
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Advance
outstanding on the date of occurrence of an Event of Default or acceleration of
the Obligations, the Effective Amount of such LIBOR Advance shall, during the
continuance of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest in accordance
with Section 2.3(d).

 

(d)           Default
Interest.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(b)(i), after an Event of Default,
Obligations shall bear interest five percent (5.00%) above the rate effective
immediately before the Event of Default (the “Default Rate”).  Payment or acceptance of the increased
interest provided in this Section 2.3(d) is
not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver
of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies
of Bank.

 

(e)           Payments. 
Interest due on each Advance shall be paid in arrears each Interest
Payment Date.  Interest shall also be
paid on the date of any prepayment of any Advance pursuant to this Agreement
for the portion of any Advance so prepaid and upon payment (including
prepayment) in full thereof.  All accrued
but unpaid interest on the Advances shall be due and payable on the Revolving
Maturity Date. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for principal
and interest payments owing under this Agreement or any amounts Borrower owes
Bank.  Bank will promptly notify Borrower
when it debits Borrower’s accounts. 
Debits initiated by the Bank shall generally be made prior to 12:00 noon
Pacific time. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered
received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When a payment is due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or
interest accrue, however solely making such payment on the next Business Day
shall not result in an Event of Default.

 

(f)            Prime
Rate Advances.  Each change in the interest rate of the Prime
Rate Advances based on changes in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the
effective date of such change and to the extent of such change.  Bank shall use its best efforts to give
Borrower prompt notice of any such change in the 

 

5

 

Prime Rate; provided, however, that any failure by Bank to provide
Borrower with notice hereunder shall not affect Bank’s right to make changes in
the interest rate of the Prime Rate Advances based on changes in the Prime
Rate.

 

(g)           LIBOR
Advances.  The interest rate applicable to each LIBOR
Advance shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.3(a) hereunder.
Subject to Sections  3.3
and 3.4, such rate shall apply during the
entire Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Advance, and interest
calculated thereon shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date applicable to
such LIBOR Advance.”

 

2.6          Section 2.4  (Fees). 
Section 2.4(c) is amended in its entirety and replaced with
the following:

 

“(c)         Line of Credit Fee.  A fee equal to $25,000 (the “Line of Credit Fee”) due, payable and fully earned on August 13,
2008.”

 

2.7          Section 2.4  (Fees). 
Section 2.4 is amended to hereby add the following clause (e):

 

“(e)         Unused Line Fee.  A fee payable quarterly, in arrears, on a
calendar year basis, in an amount equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%)
per annum of the average unused portion of the Committed Non-Formula Revolving
Line, as determined by Bank.”

 

2.8          Section 3 (Conditions).  Section 3 is amended to hereby
add the following new Sections 3.3 and 3.4:

 

“3.3       Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Advances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect
to LIBOR Advances as to the matters covered:

 

(a)          Determination of Applicable Interest Rate.  As
soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine
(which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final,
conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to
the LIBOR Advances for which an interest rate is then being determined for the
applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing
or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.

 

(b)          Inability to Determine Applicable Interest
Rate.  In the event that Bank shall have determined
(which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR
Advance, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market
adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate
applicable to such Advance on the basis provided for in the definition of
LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone
confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination, whereupon (i) no
Advances may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Advances until such time as
Bank notifies Borrower that the 

 

6

 

circumstances giving rise to
such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to Advances in respect
of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be (y) rescinded
by Borrower, and (z) a request for a Prime Rate Advance.

 

(c)          Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement
of Interest Periods.  Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written
request by Bank (which request shall set forth the manner and method of
computing such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and
liabilities, if any (including any interest paid by Bank to lenders of funds
borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Advances and any loss, expense or
liability incurred by Bank in connection with the liquidation or re-employment
of such funds) such that Bank may incur: (i) if for any reason (other than
a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund LIBOR Advances due to
impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.4(d) and
3.4(e)) a borrowing or a conversion to
or continuation of any LIBOR Advance does not occur on a date specified in a
Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be,
or (ii) if any principal payment or any conversion of any of its LIBOR
Advances occurs under Section 3.4(a),
on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that
Advance.

 

(d)          Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR
Advances.  Calculation of all amounts payable to Bank
under this Section 3.3 and under Section 2.12 shall be made as though Bank had actually
funded each of its relevant LIBOR Advances through the purchase of a Eurodollar
deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of
LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Advance and having a
maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided,
however, that Bank may fund each of its LIBOR Advances in any manner
it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the
purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.3
and under Section 2.1.2.

 

(e)          LIBOR Advances After Default. 
After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower
may not elect to have an Advance be made or continued as, or converted to, a
LIBOR Advance after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for
such Advance and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(c),
any Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a
requested conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to
be rescinded by Borrower and be deemed a request to convert or continue
Advances referred to therein as Prime Rate Advances.

 

“3.4       Additional Requirements/Provisions Regarding LIBOR Advances.

 

(a)          If
for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration),
Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of a LIBOR Advance prior to
the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, Borrower shall
immediately notify Borrower’s account officer at Bank and, on demand by Bank,
pay Bank the amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which 

 

7

 

would have been payable on the amount so received had it not been
received until the last day of such Interest Period exceeds (ii) the
interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so
received on deposit in the certificate of deposit markets, the offshore
currency markets, or United States Treasury investment products, as the case
may be, for a period starting on the date on which it was so received and
ending on the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined
by Bank in its reasonable discretion. 
Bank’s determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

 

(b)          Borrower
shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may
determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that
Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount
receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any Advances relating thereto (such
increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any
Regulatory Change which:

 

(i)             changes
the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank under this Agreement in
respect of any Advances (other than changes which affect taxes measured by or
imposed on the overall net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has
its principal office);

 

(ii)            imposes
or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to
any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, or other
liabilities of Bank (including any Advances or any deposits referred to in the
definition of LIBOR); or

 

(iii)           imposes
any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of
credit or liabilities).

 

Bank will notify Borrower of
any event occurring after the Closing Date which will entitle Bank to
compensation pursuant to this Section 3.4
as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to
request such compensation.  Bank will
furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and amount of each
request by Bank for compensation under this Section 3.4.  Determinations and allocations by Bank for
purposes of this Section 3.4 of the effect of
any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make
Advances, of making or maintaining Advances, or on amounts receivable by it in
respect of Advances, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank
in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(c)          If
Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law,
rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein,
or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its
applicable lending office) with any respect or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
central 

 

8

 

bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or entity controlling Bank
(a “Parent”) as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could
have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into
consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by
Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after
demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate Bank for such reduction. 
A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.4(c) and setting forth the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

 

(d)          If,
at any time, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that (i) the
amount of LIBOR Advances for periods equal to the corresponding Interest
Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets,
or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the
LIBOR Advances, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower.  Upon the giving of such notice, Bank’s
obligation to make the LIBOR Advances shall terminate; provided,
however, Advances shall not terminate if Bank and Borrower agree in
writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Advances.

 

(e)          If it
shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR
Advances, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank,
Borrower shall prepay the Advances in full with accrued interest thereon and
all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation,
any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.4(a)). 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by Bank as
described above relates to a LIBOR Advance then being requested by Borrower
pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation,
Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(c), to (i) rescind such Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation by giving notice
(electronically, by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of
such rescission on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as
described above, or (ii) modify such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation to obtain a Prime Rate Advance or to have outstanding
Advances converted into or continued as Prime Rate Advances by giving notice
(electronically, by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such
modification on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as
described above.”

its entirety and replaced with the following:
