other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lender in connection with
review or approval of Collateral, enforcing payment and performance of the

hereunder immediately due and payable in full (the “Call Option”)
upon (a) any refinancing of the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Notes
prior to the Maturity Date, or (b) any restructuring, amendment or
modification of or to the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Notes that would
cause the Loan or any of the Obligations to be subordinated to or to become
junior to any other debt, liability or obligation of Borrower to Lender except
as provided by the Subordination Agreement. Borrower shall give Lender at least
ten (10) business days written notice prior to the closing of any
transaction that involves any restructuring, amendment or modification of or to
the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Lender shall not have the right to exercise the Call Option if any such

SECTION 5

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

In
order to induce Lender to make the Loan, Borrower represents, warrants and
covenants as follows, which representations, warranties and covenants shall be
true and correct as of the execution hereof and shall survive the execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents:

 

5.1                                 Oganization of Borrower; Authority to Enter
into Agreement.  Borrower is a corporation, duly formed and
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction where the nature of its business makes such qualification
necessary and where the failure to so qualify precludes Borrower from enforcing
its material contracts. Borrower has full power and authority to enter into
this Agreement, to borrow money as contemplated herein, and to execute and
carry out the provisions of the Loan Documents. The execution, delivery and
performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary
action of each Loan Party and no other action of any Loan Party is required for
the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents
that have been executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement constitute,
or, if not yet executed or delivered, will when so executed and delivered,
constitute valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party, respectively, each
enforceable in

 

16

 

accordance
with its respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable
principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.

 

5.2                                 Financial Statements.  Any
financial statements, supporting schedules and financial reports delivered to
Lender in connection with the Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party
(including, without limitation, all financial statements required under Section 8.3)
are true and correct in all material respects, and, as to Borrower, have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP (except for the omission of footnotes and
normal year-end adjustments), and fairly represent in all material respects the
respective financial conditions of the subjects thereof as of the dates thereof
and for the periods covered thereby; provided, however, that it is
agreed and acknowledged that the financial statements provided pursuant to Section 4.5(a) were,
to the extent (and only to the extent) disclosed to Lender in writing prior to
Closing, not prepared in accordance with GAAP; provided further, however,
that all financial statements provided pursuant to Section 8.3
shall be fully GAAP compliant as required therein (except for the omission of
footnotes and normal year-end adjustments).

 

5.3                                 Litigation.  There are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending, or to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against
or affecting any Loan Party, or any of the property or assets of any Loan
Party, in any court at law or in equity, or before or by any governmental or
municipal authority that could reasonably be expected to materially adversely
affect the ability of the Loan Party to perform its respective obligations
hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents to which the Loan Party is a
party, or could reasonably be expected to affect the priority of Lender’s liens
and security interests with respect to Borrower’s property or assets, except as
disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the date of this Agreement.

 

5.4                                 Subsidiaries.  There
are no Subsidiaries owned directly or indirectly by Borrower, other than those
identified in Schedule 5.4 attached hereto.

 

5.5                                 Use of Proceeds.  The
purpose of the Loan is a business purposes and not a personal, family or
household purposes. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used solely to retire and
repay in its entirety the Consonus Seller Notes. No part of the proceeds of the
Loan shall be used at anytime by Borrower to purchase or carry margin stock
(within the meaning of Regulation U promulgated by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System) or to extend credit to others for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying any margin stock. Borrower is not engaged principally, or
as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock. No part of the
proceeds of the Loan will be used by Borrower for any purpose that violates, or
that is inconsistent with, any regulations promulgated by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

 

5.6                                 Solvency.  Before and after giving effect
to the Loan, Borrower (a) is not “insolvent” as that term is defined in Section 101(32)
of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act
(the “UFTA”) or Section 2 of the
Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the “UFCA”), (b) does
not have “unreasonably small capital,” as that term is used in Section 548(a)(2)(B)(ii) of
the Bankruptcy Code or Section 5 of the UFCA, (c) is not engaged or
about to engage in a business or a transaction for which its remaining property
is “unreasonably small” in relation to such business or transaction as that
term is used in Section 4

 

17

 

of
the UFTA, (d) able to pay its debts as they mature or become due, within
the meaning of Section 548(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4
of the UFTA and Section 6 of the UFCA, and (e) owns assets having a
value both at “fair valuation” and at “present fair salable value” greater than
or equal to the amount required to pay such Person’s “debts” as such terms are
used in Section 2 of the UFTA and Section 2 of the UFCA. Borrower
will not be rendered insolvent (as such term is defined above) by the execution
and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or by the
transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder.

 

5.7                                 No Violation of Other Agreements; No Default.  The
execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of the Loan Documents
will not (a) violate any provision of any Governmental Requirement or any
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court,
Governmental Entity or government agency or arbitrator presently in effect having
applicability to any Loan Party, or (b) result in a breach of, or
constitute an event of default under, any indenture, deed of trust, mortgage,
credit facility or loan agreement (including, without limitation, the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes), note or any other material
agreement, lease or instrument to which the Loan Party is a party or by which
it or any of its assets or properties may be bound or result in the creation of
any Lien or security interest thereunder. No Loan Party is in default under or
in violation of any such Governmental Requirement, order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award or any such indenture, loan or
credit agreement or other agreement, lease or instrument in any case in which
the consequences of such default or violation could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect on such Loan Party.

 

5.8                                 Government Consents.  No
material order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or
filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental
Entity is required on the part of any Loan Party to authorize, or is required
in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of, or the legality,
validity, binding effect or enforceability of, the Loan Documents, except for
any necessary filing or recordation of or with respect to any of the Loan
Documents.

 

5.9                                 Accuracy of Information.  All
reports, inventories, schedules, statements, verifications and other
information provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party to Lender pursuant to
this Agreement or in connection with the Loan are and shall be true, accurate,
complete and correct in all material respects as of the dates the same are
provided to Lender (other than those that relate to an earlier date) and do not
and shall not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a
fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances under which they were made; provided, however, that any projections
provided by any Loan Party to Lender represent as of the date of delivery, such
Loan Party’s good faith estimate of its future performance for the periods
covered thereby. Each Loan Party agrees to promptly notify Lender in the event
that any of such documentation or information is later discovered by such Loan
Party to be materially inaccurate.

 

5.10                           Good Faith; Bankruptcy.  This
Agreement is executed in good faith by each Loan Party and is not given or
intended to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor or to contravene any of the
bankruptcy laws of the United States (11 U.S.C. Section 101, et seq.), or any other applicable laws. As of the date of the execution of this
Agreement, no Loan Party is the subject of a

 

18

 

pending
bankruptcy case. No Loan Party is aware of any threatened bankruptcy case, nor
are any Loan Parties presently intending to file such a case.

 

5.11                           Taxes.  Each Loan Party has filed all
federal, state and local tax returns required to be filed and has paid or made
provision (as required by GAAP) for the payment of all taxes due and payable
pursuant to such returns and pursuant to any assessments made against it or any
of its property and all other taxes, fees and other charges imposed on it or
any of its property by any governmental authority (other than taxes, fees or
charges the applicability, amount or validity of which is currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
reserves in accordance with GAAP have been provided on the books of such Loan
Party). No tax liens (other than liens subject to Permitted Protest) have been
filed and no material claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes,
fees or charges. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of any Loan
Party in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are adequate, and the
Loan Parties know of no proposed material tax assessment against it or any
basis therefor.

 

5.12                           Trademarks; Patents.  Borrower possesses or has the right to use all
of the patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks and copyrights, and
applications therefor, and all technology, know-how, processes, methods and
designs used in or necessary for the conduct of its business, to its knowledge
without conflict with or infringement on the rights of others, except as could
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.13                           Collateral.  Borrower is, or will be after
the closing of the Loan, the lawful owner of or lessee of all Collateral, free
from all Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

 

5.14                           Approvals and Permits; Compliance With Laws.  Borrower
has obtained and there are in full force and effect all consents, franchises,
certificates, licenses, authorizations, approvals and permits necessary for the
conduct of the business of Borrower, other than those consents, franchises,
certificates, licenses, authorizations, approvals and permits that if not
obtained or not in effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower
owns or leases all assets and property necessary for conduct of the business
and operations of Borrower. Such assets and property are not subject to any
Liens, other than Permitted Liens. Borrower is in compliance in all material
respects with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign statutes, laws,
orders, regulations, rules and ordinances (including, without limitation,
Environmental Laws and statutes, laws, orders, regulations, rules and
ordinances relating to taxes, employer and employee contributions and similar
items, securities, ERISA or employee health and safety) the failure to comply
with which would have a Material Adverse Effect on Borrower.

 

5.15                           Indebtedness.  Except as permitted in Section 7.8,
Borrower is not obligated (directly or indirectly), for any Indebtedness.

 

5.16                           Environmental Matters.  Borrower
has no knowledge of any generation, use, storage, treatment, transportation,
manufacturing, handling, production or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, on
or off its premises (whether or not owned by Borrower) in any manner that at
anytime violates any Environmental Law in any material respect or any license,
permit, certificate, approval or similar authorization thereunder in any
material respect and the operations of Borrower comply in all material respects
with all Environmental Laws and all

 

19

 

licenses,
permits, certificates, approvals and similar authorizations thereunder other
than those that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. There has been no investigation, proceeding, complaint, order,
directive, claim, citation or notice by any governmental authority, nor is any
pending or to the best of Borrower’s knowledge threatened with respect to any non-compliance
with or violation of the requirements of any Environmental Law by Borrower or
the release, spill or discharge, (threatened or actual) of any Hazardous
Materials or the generation, use, storage, treatment, transportation,
manufacture, handling, production or disposal of any Hazardous Materials or any
other environmental, health or safety matter, that affects Borrower or its
business, operations or assets or any properties at which Borrower has

lien against any of its properties or assets.

 

5.18                           Regulatory Matters.  None

are no strikes, lockouts or other general labor disputes against Borrower, or,
to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Borrower, in any case
that could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and no significant unfair labor practice
complaint is pending against Borrower or, to the knowledge of Borrower,
threatened against Borrower before any Governmental Entity in any case that
could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate,
a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has at all times operated its business in
compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the
Federal Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended.

SECTION 6

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

 

Until
the Obligations are paid and performed in full, Borrower agrees that:

 

6.1                                 Books and Records; Periodic Audits.  Borrower
shall keep books and records reflecting all of its business affairs and
transactions in accordance with GAAP and permit Lender and its representatives
and agents at reasonable times and intervals and upon reasonable prior notice to
Borrower, to visit all of its offices, discuss its financial matters with
officers of Borrower and its independent public accountant (and by this
provision Borrower authorizes its independent public accountants to participate
in such discussions) and examine any of its books and other corporate records.
Such audits shall be at the expense of Borrower.

 

6.2                                 Collateral Inspections.  Borrower shall permit the duly authorized
agents of Lender to conduct an examination, appraisal or other inspection of
the Collateral. Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with Lender, make such
Collateral reasonably available to Lender for such examinations, and pay upon
demand such reasonable fees and costs Lender may incur in conducting the
examinations, appraisals or other inspections; provided, however, that
so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall
only be obligated to pay for the costs of one examination, appraisal or other
inspection of the Collateral during each twelve (12) month period.

 

6.3                                 Existence.  Borrower shall maintain its
existence as an entity in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
formation and its qualification to transact business in each jurisdiction where
failure to qualify would preclude Borrower from enforcing its rights with
respect to any material asset or would expose Borrower to any material
liability.

 

6.4                                 Maintain Business.  Borrower
shall continue to primarily provide IT infrastructure, data center storage
solutions, and related managed services in the same manner as it engages on the
date of this Agreement.

 

6.5                                 Conduct of Business.  Borrower
shall maintain and keep its assets, property and equipment that are necessary
or useful to the conduct of its business in good repair, working

 

22

 

order
and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and from time to time make or
cause to be made all needed renewals, replacements and repairs.

 

6.6                                 Headquarters.  Borrower
shall maintain its headquarters in the State of Utah.

 

6.7                                 Payment of Taxes and Claims.  Borrower
shall promptly file all tax returns and reports that are required by applicable
law to be filed by it and pay promptly all lawful taxes and assessments imposed
upon Borrower or Borrower’s assets, including, without limitation, federal,
state and local employee benefits and taxes, income taxes, sales or use taxes
and general and special assessments; to pay promptly all claims for labor and
materials furnished with respect to any property of Borrower and to prevent the
filing of liens therefor; provided, however, that Borrower need not pay
any such taxes, assessments or claims so long as it is subject to a Permitted
Protest.

 

6.8                                 Insurance.  Borrower shall:

 

(a)                                     Keep the Collateral properly housed and insured
against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, collision (in the
case of motor vehicles) and such other risks as are customarily insured against
by Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrower, with such
companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and under policies in such
form, as shall be satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion. Borrower
will provide certificates to Lender with appropriate Lender designation as
additional insured or loss payee as may be appropriate together with evidence
of payment of all premiums therefor, and shall contain an endorsement, in form
and substance acceptable to Lender, showing loss under such insurance policies
payable to Lender. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to
Lender, shall provide that the insurance company shall give Lender at least
thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy of insurance is altered
or canceled and that no act, whether willful or negligent, or default of
Borrower or any other Person shall affect the right of Lender to recover under
such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage. In addition, Borrower shall
cause to be executed and delivered to Lender an assignment of proceeds of its
business interruption insurance policies. Borrower hereby directs all insurers
under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly
to Lender; provided, however, that Lender will pay all proceeds payable
thereunder directly to Borrower unless a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing. Borrower irrevocably makes, constitutes and
appoints Lender (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Lender) as
Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling
and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance, endorsing the name of
Borrower on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the
proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all determinations and
decisions with respect to such policies of insurance; provided, however,
that Lender will not take any such actions as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact
unless and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

(b)                                    Maintain, at its expense, such public
liability and third party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons
engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrower with such companies and in
such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be
satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion, and original (or
certified) copies of such policies shall be delivered to Lender, together with
evidence of payment of all premiums

 

23

 

therefor;
each such policy shall contain an endorsement showing Lender as additional
insured thereunder and providing that the insurance company shall give Lender
at least thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy shall be
altered or canceled.

 

If
Borrower at anytime or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of
the policies of insurance required above or to pay any premium relating
thereto, then Lender, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by
Borrower hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and
maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other
actions with respect thereto as Lender deems advisable. Such insurance, if
obtained by Lender, may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interests or pay any
claim made by or against Borrower with respect to the Collateral. Such
insurance may be more expensive than the cost of insurance Borrower may be able
to obtain on its own and may be cancelled only upon Borrower providing written
evidence that it has obtained the insurance as required above. All sums
disbursed by Lender in connection with any such actions, including, without
limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and
reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute part of the Loan, shall be payable
on demand by Borrower to Lender and, until paid, shall bear interest at the
highest rate then applicable to the Loan.

 

6.9                                 Complying with the Loan Documents and Other
Documents.  Borrower shall comply in all material respects
with and perform all of its agreements and obligations under the Loan
Documents, and under all other material contracts and agreements to which
Borrower is a party and all material Governmental Requirements relating to the
ownership, occupancy, use or management of Borrower’s property (unless Borrower’s
obligation to comply therewith is being contested by Borrower in good faith,
with due diligence and in compliance with all applicable requirements, if any,
relating to such contests set forth in the Loan Documents).

 

6.10                           Compliance.  Borrower shall comply with all
Governmental Requirements and all orders, writs, judgments, injunctions,
decrees or awards to which it may be subject; provided, however, that
failure to comply shall not be a breach of this covenant if such failure does
not relate to any Collateral and does not have, or is not reasonably expected
to have, a Material Adverse Effect, and Borrower is acting in good faith and
with reasonable dispatch to cure such non-compliance.

 

6.11                           Payment of Claims. Borrower agrees to pay and discharge all
claims for labor performed and material and services furnished in connection
with the Collateral, and to take all other steps necessary to forestall the
assertion of claims or liens either against the Collateral, or any part thereof
or right or interest appurtenant thereto, or of claims against Lender. Nothing
herein contained shall require Borrower to pay any claims for labor, materials
or services that are subject to Permitted Protest. Lender shall not be required
to extend the Maturity Date of the Loan by reason of Borrower’s failure to pay
any such claims.

 

6.12                           Intellectual Property.  Borrower
shall maintain adequate licenses, patents, patent applications, copyrights,
service marks, trademarks, trademark applications and trade names necessary to
continue its business as heretofore conducted by it or as hereafter conducted
by it.

 

6.13                           Further Assurances.  Borrower
will at anytime and from time to time upon the request of Lender take or cause
to be taken any action, execute, acknowledge, deliver or record

 

24

 

any
additional documents, instruments, opinions, trust deeds, mortgages, security
agreements or financing statements or obtain such additional insurance as
Lender in its reasonable discretion deems necessary or appropriate to carry out
the purposes of this Agreement and to preserve, protect and perfect the
security interests intended to be created and preserved in the Collateral and
other properties and assets securing the Obligations of Borrower under this
Agreement and the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, but subject to the prohibitions set forth in Section 7.1,
Borrower shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to guaranty the Obligations and
to cause each such Subsidiary to grant to Lender a security interest in, and
Lien on, substantially all of such Person’s assets and property to secure such
guaranty, in each case pursuant to documents and instruments and other
conditions as Lender may reasonably require.

 

6.14                           Notices of Certain Events.  Each
Loan Party, each for itself, as soon as practicable, shall give written notice
to Lender of:

 

(a)                                       the commencement of any uninsured litigation
relating to any Loan Party or relating to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement that, if adversely determined, would constitute a Material Adverse
Effect;

 

(b)                                      the commencement of any material arbitration
or governmental investigation or proceeding not previously disclosed by the
Loan Party to Lender in writing that has been instituted or, to the knowledge
of the Loan Party, threatened against any Loan Party or to which its properties
or assets are subject that, if determined adversely to the Loan Party would
constitute a Material Adverse Effect;

 

(c)                                       any adverse development that occurs in any
litigation, arbitration or governmental investigation or proceeding previously
disclosed by any Loan Party to Lender that, if determined adversely to any Loan
Party would constitute a Material Adverse Effect;

 

(d)                                      any change of Borrower’s name or the use of
any trade name, assumed name, fictitious business name or division name not
previously disclosed to Lender in writing;

 

(e)                                       the occurrence of any “reportable event” (as
that term is defined in ERISA) that might result in the termination if any
employee benefit plan covering any officers or employees of Borrower;

 

(f)                                         any investigation, proceeding, complaint,
order, directive, claim, citation or notice with respect to any non-compliance
with or violation of the requirements of any Environmental Law by Borrower or
the generation, use, storage, treatment, transportation, manufacture, handling,
production or disposal of any Hazardous Materials or any other environmental,
health or safety matter that affects Borrower or its business operations or
assets or any properties at which Borrower has transported, stored or disposed

consent, waiver or other communication from U.S. Bank or any of its Affiliates
or agents or representatives with respect

 

25

 

to
the Senior Indebtedness (and Borrower shall promptly provide Lender with a copy
of any such written communication received).

 

6.15                           Certificates; Other Information.  Borrower
shall furnish to Lender:

 

(a)                                       promptly after the same are sent, copies of
all financial statements and reports that Borrower sends to holders of its
Equity Interests;

 

(b)                                      promptly upon receipt thereof, copies of any
reports submitted by Borrower’s certified public accountants in connection with
each annual, interim or special audit or review of any type of the financial
statements or internal control systems of Borrower made by such accountants,
including any comment letters submitted by such accountants to management of
Borrower in connection with their services; and

the Indebtedness so refinanced, renewed or extended, nor on terms or conditions
that, taken as a whole, are materially more burdensome or restrictive to Borrower;
and (iii) if the Indebtedness that is refinanced, renewed or extended was
subordinated

the part of Lender. Upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default, other
than an Event of Default under Section 9.4, all Obligations of
Borrower and all Indebtedness to Lender hereunder may be accelerated by Lender
in its sole and absolute discretion, and upon any such acceleration, all

Collateral or similar warranties), and, in connection therewith, Borrower will
upon demand by Lender assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender
at a place to be designated by Lender that is reasonably convenient to Lender; (ii) exercise
and enforce Lender’s

 

34

 

rights
and remedies under the Loan Documents; and (iii) exercise any other rights
and remedies available to Lender by federal or state law or at equity or by
agreement.

 

SECTION 10 

OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

10.1         Legal Representation. Lender shall
have the right to commence or to appear in or to defend any actions or
proceedings affecting or purporting to affect the rights or duties of Lender
under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall promptly pay all costs and expenses
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses
incurred by Lender in exercising its rights under this Section 10.1
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.5.

 

10.2         Governing Law; Submission to
Jurisdiction. This Agreement, the Note and any and all other
Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of
the State of Utah. Lender and Borrower hereby consent to the exercise of
jurisdiction over it by any federal court sitting in Utah or any Utah District
Court in the Salt Lake City, Salt Lake City County, Utah, selected by Lender,
for the purposes of any and all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to
the Loan, this Agreement and all other Loan Documents. Each of Lender and
Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any
such proceeding brought in any such court, any claim based on the consolidation
of proceedings in such courts in which proper venue may lie in divergent
jurisdictions, and any claim that any such proceeding brought in any such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

10.3         Lender’s Rights Optional;
Marshaling; Payments; Set Aside. Wherever in the Loan
Documents Lender is authorized or given the right to take any action, Lender
may exercise or refrain from exercising such right at its sole option and shall
not be obligated to exercise such right. Lender shall not be liable for any
failure to exercise any such right or for any delay in exercising any such
right. Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of
Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender
or Lender enforces its Liens or exercises its rights of set-off, and such
payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or
any other Person under any bankruptcy statute, law, rule or regulation,
state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of
such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

 

10.4         Modification, Waiver,
Consent and Failure to Exercise. No modification or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent
to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective or binding upon
Lender or Borrower unless the same is made in writing and signed by Lender and
Borrower. Any such modification, waiver or consent made in writing by Lender
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
given, and no such waiver, modification or consent shall be a waiver,
modification or consent for any other purpose, or for the same purpose in any
other instance. No notice to or demand on Borrower not specifically required of
Lender under any Loan Document

 

35

 

shall
entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar
or other circumstances. No failure by Lender to exercise any right or remedy
under any circumstance shall impair the right of Lender to the exercise of such
right or remedy or any other right or remedy in that circumstance or in any
other circumstance. Neither the making by Lender of the Loan under this
Agreement nor any other continued performance by Lender hereunder shall
constitute a waiver of (a) any of the conditions to Lender’s obligations
to continue its performance, (b) any right of Lender to suspend its
performance, or (c) any right or remedy available to Lender. If Borrower
is unable to satisfy any such condition, no waiver of such condition shall have
the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring a subsequent similar
inability to be a Default or an Event of Default, as the case may be.

 

10.5         Indemnification. Borrower
shall indemnify and hold Lender and each of its Affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”)
harmless from and against all claims, costs, expenses, actions, suits,
proceedings, losses, damages and liabilities of any kind whatsoever, including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, arising out
of any matter relating, directly or indirectly, (i) to the Loan (including
the use of the proceeds thereof), (ii) to the ownership or sale of the
Collateral, or (iii) any transactions arising out of or contemplated by
the Loan Documents, whether resulting from internal disputes of Borrower,
disputes between Borrower and/or any Affiliate, or whether involving other
third persons or entities, or out of any other matter whatsoever related to
this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any property encumbered
thereby, but excluding any claim or liability, as to an Indemnitee, that has
been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a final non-appealable
judgment) to have resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee. This indemnity provision shall continue in full
force and effect and shall survive not only the making of the Loan, but also
shall survive the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all of Borrower’s
other obligations hereunder.

 

10.6         Notices. Any notice,
request, demand, consent, approval, bill, invoice or other communication
required or permitted under the Loan Documents (each, a “notice”) shall
be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery or upon
confirmed transmission by telecopier and similar facsimile transmission device,
(b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier
service that guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the day of

parties with respect to the matters described in this Agreement, the Loan
Documents and documents and instruments described in this Agreement and
contains material terms bargained-for by the parties. If any provision of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document securing or executed in connection with
this Agreement is, for any reason and to any extent, invalid or unenforceable,
then neither the remainder of the Loan Document in which such provision is
contained, or the application of the provision to other Persons or
circumstances, nor any other document or instrument referred to in this
Agreement, shall be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, and there
shall be deemed substituted for the invalid unenforceable provision the most
similar provision that would be valid and enforceable under applicable law. The
headings and titles of the Sections of this Agreement are for reference
purposes only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. Reference in this
Agreement to any Section or subsection shall be to the stated Section or
subsection of this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated,

 

10.11       Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be
an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.

 

10.12       Entire Agreement. This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement between
Lender and Borrower with respect to the Loan and supersede and cancel any prior
understandings and agreements between Lender and Borrower with respect to the
Loan, except as otherwise specifically set forth herein. This Agreement may be
modified only by a writing executed by Lender and Borrower.

 

10.13       Binding Effect;
Participation. Subject to Section 7.13, this
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and
Borrower and their respective successors and/or permitted assigns; provided,
however, that Lender shall be permitted to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document to any third party
(including, without limitation, any Affiliate of Lender). Without limiting the
foregoing, Lender shall have the right, without the consent of Borrower, to
sell participations to one or more other lenders (a “Participant”)
in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan and the
Loan Documents; provided further, however, that (i) Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Lender shall
remain solely responsible to Borrower for the performance of such obligations,
and (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender
in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and
with regard to any and all payments to be made under this Agreement. In
addition, Lender may at anytime pledge or assign a security interest in all or
any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to
secure obligations of Lender.

 

10.14       Information. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that Lender may provide to any such assignee or
Participant originals or copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and
any other documents, instruments, certificates, opinions, insurance policies,
letters of credit,

 

38

 

reports,
requisitions, and other materials and information of every nature or
description, and may communicate all oral information, at anytime submitted by
or on behalf of Borrower or received by Lender in connection with the Loan or
with respect to Borrower, provided that prior to any such delivery or
communication, such assignees or Participants shall agree to preserve the
confidentiality of any of the foregoing to the same extent that Lender agreed
to preserve such confidentiality. In order to facilitate sales to assignees or
Participants, Borrower shall execute such further documents, instruments or
agreements as Lender may reasonably require; provided, however, that
Borrower shall not be required (i) to execute any document, instrument or
agreement that would materially decrease its rights, or materially increase its
obligations, relative to those set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan
Document (including financial obligations, representations and warranties, and
reporting requirements), or (ii) to expend more than incidental sums of
money or incidental administrative time for which it does not receive
reasonable reimbursement in order to comply with any requests or requirements
of Lender in connection with such assignment or sale arrangement. In addition,
Borrower agrees to cooperate fully with Lender in the exercise of Lenders’
rights pursuant to this Section 10.14 including providing such
information and documentation regarding Borrower as any potential Participant
may reasonably request and to meet with potential Participants.

 

10.15       Waiver of Jury Trial. Borrower and
Lender, each for itself, hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

 

10.16       ARBITRATION
DISCLOSURES.

 

Any
claim or controversy (a “Dispute”) between or among the
parties and their employees, agents, affiliates, and assigns, including, but
not limited to, Disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, this
arbitration provision (this “arbitration clause”), or any
other Loan Document, instrument or agreement relating hereto or delivered in
connection herewith and including, but not limited to, a Dispute based on or
arising from an alleged tort, shall at the request of either party be resolved
by binding arbitration in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules of
the American Arbitration Association (the “Administrator”).
The provisions of this arbitration clause shall survive any termination,
amendment or expiration of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The
provisions of this arbitration clause shall supersede any prior arbitration
agreement between or among the parties.

 

The
arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County,
Utah. The Administrator and the arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to
the extent practicable to take any action to require the arbitration proceeding
to be completed and the arbitrator(s)’ award issued within one hundred-fifty
(150) days of the filing of the Dispute with the Administrator. The arbitrator(s) shall
have the authority to impose sanctions on any party that fails to comply with
time periods imposed by the Administrator or the arbitrator(s), including the
sanction of summarily dismissing any Dispute or defense with prejudice. The
arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to resolve any Dispute regarding
the terms of this Agreement, this arbitration clause or any of the other Loan
Documents, including any claim or controversy regarding the arbitrability of
any Dispute. All limitations periods applicable to any Dispute or defense,
whether by statute or agreement, shall apply to any arbitration proceeding

 

39

 

hereunder
and the arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to decide whether any
Dispute or defense is barred by a limitations period and, if so, to summarily
enter an award dismissing any Dispute or defense on that basis. The doctrines
of compulsory counterclaim, res
judicata, and collateral estoppel shall apply to any
arbitration proceeding hereunder so that a party must state as a counterclaim
in the arbitration proceeding any claim or controversy that arises out of the
transaction or occurrence that is the subject matter of the Dispute. The
arbitrator(s) may in the arbitrator(s)’ discretion and at the request of
either party: (a) consolidate in a single arbitration proceeding any other
claim arising out of the same transaction involving another party to that
transaction that is bound by an arbitration clause with Lender, such as
borrowers, guarantors, sureties and owners of collateral; and (b) consolidate
or administer multiple arbitration claims or controversies as a class action in
accordance with Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

 

The
arbitrator(s) shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the
Administrator from panels maintained by the Administrator. A single arbitrator
shall have expertise in the subject matter of the Dispute. Where three
arbitrators conduct an arbitration proceeding, the Dispute shall be decided by
a majority vote of the three arbitrators, at least one of whom must have expertise
in the subject matter of the Dispute and at least one of whom must be a
practicing attorney licensed in the State of Utah. The arbitrator(s) shall
award to the prevailing party all costs, fees and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, arbitration administration fees
and costs, and arbitrator(s)’ fees). The arbitrator(s), either during the
pendency of the arbitration proceeding or as part of the arbitration award,
also may grant provisional or ancillary remedies, including, but not limited
to, an award of injunctive relief, foreclosure, sequestration, attachment,
replevin, garnishment or the appointment of a receiver.

 

Judgment
upon an arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction,
subject to the following limitation: the arbitration award is binding upon the
parties only if the amount does not exceed Three Million Dollars and No/100
($3,000,000.00); if the award exceeds that limit, either party may demand the
right to a court trial. Such a demand must be filed with the Administrator
within thirty (30) days following the date of the arbitration award; if such a
demand is not made within that time period, the amount of the arbitration award
shall be binding. The computation of the total amount of an arbitration award
shall include amounts awarded for attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses,
arbitration administration fees and costs, and arbitrator(s’) fees.

 

No
provision of this arbitration clause, nor the exercise of any rights hereunder,
shall limit the right of any party to: (a) judicially or non-judicially
foreclose against any real or personal property collateral or other security; (b) exercise
self-help remedies, including, but not limited to, repossession and setoff
rights; or (c) obtain from a court having competent jurisdiction thereover
any provisional or ancillary remedies including but not limited to injunctive
relief, foreclosure, sequestration, attachment, replevin, garnishment or the
appointment of a receiver. Such rights can be exercised at anytime, before or
after initiation of an arbitration proceeding, except to the extent such action
is contrary to the arbitration award. The exercise of such rights shall not
constitute a waiver of the right to submit any Dispute to arbitration, and any
claim or controversy related to the exercise of such rights shall be a Dispute
to be resolved under the provisions of this arbitration clause. Either party
may initiate arbitration

 

40

 

with
the Administrator. If either party desires to arbitrate a Dispute asserted
against such party in a complaint, counterclaim, cross-claim or third-party
complaint thereto, or in an answer or other reply to any such pleading, such
party must make an appropriate motion to the trial court seeking to compel
arbitration, which motion must be filed with the court within forty-five (45)
days of service of the pleading, or amendment thereto, setting forth such
Dispute. If arbitration is compelled after commencement of litigation of a Dispute,
the party obtaining an order compelling arbitration shall commence arbitration
and pay the Administrator’s filing fees and costs within forty-five (45) days
of entry of such order. Failure to do so shall constitute an agreement to
proceed with litigation and waiver of the right to arbitrate.

 

Notwithstanding
the applicability of any other law to this Agreement, this arbitration clause,
the arbitration proceeding or any other Loan Document between or among the
parties, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et
seq., shall apply to the construction and interpretation of this arbitration
clause. If any provision of this arbitration clause should be determined to be
unenforceable, all other provisions of this arbitration clause shall remain in
full force and effect.

 

Borrower
acknowledges and agrees as follows:

 

(a)             ARBITRATION IS
FINAL AND BINDING ON THE PARTIES AND SUBJECT TO ONLY VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A
COURT.

 

(b)             IN ARBITRATION
THE PARTIES ARE WAIVING THEIR RIGHT TO LITIGATE IN COURT INCLUDING THEIR RIGHT
TO A JURY TRIAL.

 

(c)             DISCOVERY IN
ARBITRATION IS MORE LIMITED THAN DISCOVERY IN COURT.

 

(d)             ARBITRATORS ARE
NOT REQUIRED TO INCLUDE FACTUAL FINDINGS OR LEGAL REASONING IN THEIR AWARDS.
THE RIGHT TO APPEAL OR SEEK MODIFICATION OF ARBITRATORS’ RULINGS IS VERY
LIMITED.

 

(e)             A PANEL OF
ARBITRATORS MIGHT INCLUDE AN ARBITRATOR WHO IS OR WAS AFFILIATED WITH THE
BANKING INDUSTRY.

 

(f)              ARBITRATION
WILL APPLY TO ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES NOT JUST THOSE CONCERNING THE
AGREEMENT.

 

10.17       Construction. The parties
have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In
the event of an ambiguity or if a question of intent or interpretation arises,
this Agreement shall be constructed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto
and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring
either party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this
Agreement.

 

10.18       Post-Closing Deliveries. In addition
to the covenants set forth in Section 6, Borrower hereby covenants
to deliver each of the following to Lender within the time periods set forth
below:

 

41

 

(a)           Audited
Financial Statements. Audited financial statements for Borrower for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, which shall be delivered to Lender
within ninety (90) days after the Closing.

 

(b)           Tax Returns. Complete
copies of Borrower’s 2007 state and federal income tax returns, which shall be
delivered to Lender no later than October 15, 2008.

 

(c)           Tax Good
Standing Certificate. A certificate of tax good standing from the Utah
Department of Revenue, which shall be delivered to Lender no later than ten (10) days
after the delivery of the tax returns referenced in subsection (b) above.

PROMISSORY NOTE

 

FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, CONSONUS ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Maker”), having its principal place of
business at 2282 South President’s Drive, Suite B, West Valley City, UT,
84120, hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of Proficio Bank, a
Utah corporation (“Lender”),
having its principal place of business at 420 East South Temple, Suite 520,
Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, the principal sum of Three Million Dollars and
No/100 ($3,000,000.00) in lawful money of the United States of America pursuant
to the terms and conditions of that certain Loan Agreement of even date
herewith between Maker and Lender, as the same may be amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time (the “Loan
Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Promissory Note (the
“Note”) without definition
have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

1.             Principal and
Interest in Accordance with Loan Agreement. The aggregate principal amount
of indebtedness evidenced hereby, and interest thereon, shall be payable as
provided in the Loan Agreement. The principal amount hereof may be prepaid only
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement. As set forth
in the Loan Agreement, on the Maturity Date, Maker shall pay Lender the entire
remaining outstanding balance hereunder together with any other outstanding
Obligations.

 

2.             Payments.
All principal and interest hereunder are payable in lawful money of the United
States of America in immediately available funds as provided in the Loan
Agreement on the dates on which such payments shall become due and payable.
Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, payments received by Lender
from Maker on this Note shall be applied first to the payment of prepayment
premiums, fees and costs, then to interest that is due and payable, and only
thereafter to the outstanding principal balance.

 

3.             Certain Waivers,
Etc. Maker, for itself and its legal representatives, successors and
assigns, to the extent it may lawfully do so, hereby expressly waives
presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, presentment for the purpose of
accelerating maturity and diligence in collection, and consents that Lender may
release or surrender, exchange or substitute any personal property or other
collateral security or guaranty now held or that may hereafter be held as
security for the payment of this Note, and may extend the time for payment or
otherwise modify the terms of payment of any part or the whole of the debt
evidenced hereby to the extent provided in the Loan Agreement without in any
way affecting the liability of Maker.

 

4.             Certain
References to Loan Agreement. This Note evidences, in part, the Loan (as
that term is defined in the Loan Agreement), and is the “Note” referred to in,
and is entitled to the benefits of, the Loan Agreement (including Exhibits and
Schedules attached thereto) and all other documents, instruments and agreements
evidencing and/or securing the indebtedness hereunder, including, without
limitation, the Security Agreement. A default or breach of any term or
condition of this Note will constitute an Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement (on the terms set forth therein). The occurrence or continuing existence
of an Event of Default under

 

 

the
Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall constitute a default
under this Note and shall, subject to the provisions of the Loan Agreement and
the Subordination Agreement, entitle Lender to accelerate the entire
indebtedness hereunder and to take such other action as may be provided for in
the Loan Agreement or any other document, instrument or agreement evidencing or
securing this Note, all in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

 

5.             Usury Savings
Clause. All agreements between or among Maker and Lender are hereby
expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by
reason of acceleration of maturity of the indebtedness or otherwise, shall the
amount paid or agreed or deemed to be paid for the use or forbearance of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby, whether in the form of interest, fees or other
payment of cash or property (any such amount being referred to collectively in
this paragraph as “Interest”)
exceed the maximum permissible amount that Lender is permitted to receive under
applicable law. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any
provision hereof or of the Loan Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents,
at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding
such maximum amount, then, ipso facto,
the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limit of
such validity and if, from any circumstances, Lender should ever receive as
Interest an amount that would exceed such maximum permissible amount, such
amount as would be excessive Interest shall be applied to the reduction of the
principal balance evidenced hereby and not to the payment of Interest. All
interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the
full period until payment in full of the principal amount of this Note
(including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest
thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in
effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there
is a change in the law that results in a higher permissible rate of interest,
then this Note shall be governed by such new usury law as of its effective
date, provided further, however, that in the event there is a change in
the law or the application of such law that requires a lower permissible rate
of interest be applicable to the indebtedness evidenced hereby, then this Note
shall be governed by such new usury law as of its effective date. This
provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between Maker
and Lender with respect to the subject matter of this paragraph.

 

6.             Miscellaneous
Provisions. Whenever possible, each provision of this Note shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity within such jurisdiction, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of
this Note in such jurisdiction and without invalidating such prohibited or
invalid provision in any other jurisdiction. Whenever in this Note reference is
made to Lender or Maker, such reference is made to include, as applicable, a
reference to their respective successors and assigns. The provisions of this
Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of said successors and
assigns. Maker’s successors and assigns shall include, without limitation, a receiver,
trustee or debtor in possession of or for Maker.

 

 

7.             Payment of
certain costs of Collection, Attorneys’ Fees, Etc. If this Note shall not be
paid when due and shall be placed by the holder hereof in the hands of any
attorney for collection, through legal proceedings (including litigation at
trial and on appeal) or otherwise, Maker agrees to pay reasonable attorneys’
fees to the holder hereof together with reasonable costs and expenses of
collection, including, without limitation, any such attorneys’ fees, costs and
expenses relating to any proceedings with respect to the bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation of
Maker or any other party (other than Lender) to any instrument or agreement
securing this Note.
