EXPORT-IMPORT BANK 

FACTORING AGREEMENT

This Export-Import Bank Factoring Agreement (the "Exim Agreement"), dated as of May 16, 2003, is entered into by and between Southwall Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Seller") having its principal place of business and chief executive office at the address set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, and Pacific Business Funding, a division of Cupertino National Bank ("Purchaser") having an office at the address identified above.

Recitals

A.     Seller and Purchaser are parties to that certain Domestic Factoring Agreement of even date herewith (the "Domestic Agreement"), together with related documents.

B.     Seller and Purchaser desire in this Exim Agreement to set forth their agreement with respect to a facility to be guaranteed by Export-Import Bank of the United States.

C.     Capitalized terms used in this Exim Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in Section 12, Definitions.  Schedules 1, 2 and 3 to this Exim Agreement (the "Schedules") shall for all purposes be deemed to be a part of this Exim Agreement and are incorporated herein.

	Purchase of Accounts.

	Schedule of Accounts.  Seller may, at any time, request that Purchaser purchase Accounts.  Any such request by Seller shall be made by delivering to Purchaser a Schedule of Accounts, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Schedule of Accounts") which describes in detail the Accounts Seller is requesting Purchaser to purchase, including, (a) the name and address of the Account Debtor of each such Account, (b) the amount owed by the Account Debtor of each such Account, and (c) the date and number of the invoice evidencing each such Account.  Each Schedule of Accounts shall be signed by an authorized representative of Seller.   In addition, at the request of Purchaser, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any other supporting documentation with respect to such Accounts, including all invoices, purchase orders, signed contracts, delivery receipts, timecards and other documents.

	Discretionary Approval of Accounts.  Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, purchase any Account included in a Schedule of Accounts, but is under no obligation to purchase any such Account.  Purchaser may exercise its sole discretion in approving each Account and the credit of each Account Debtor before purchasing any Account.  Purchaser will only purchase an Account it deems to be an Exim Eligible Foreign Account.  In no event shall the aggregate amount of all outstanding Obligations exceed the amount set forth on Schedule 1 (the "Maximum Commitment"). 

	Payment of Advances; Creation of a Book Reserve.  

	Upon approval, in Purchaser's sole discretion, of any of the Accounts described on a Schedule of Accounts, Purchaser shall pay to Seller as the purchase price for any approved Account the percent of the face amount of such approved Account as set forth on Schedule 1 (the "Advance").  Purchaser may,  from time to time, in its discretion, upon notice to Seller, change the percentage of the Advance.  Upon payment of the Advance to Seller, Purchaser shall also create a reserve on Purchaser's book and records with respect to each Purchased Account in an amount equal to the face amount of the Purchased Account minus the Advance for such Purchased Account (the "Reserve").  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Exim Agreement, in no event shall the Reserve with respect to all Purchased Accounts outstanding at any time be less than the percent of the Account Balance set forth on Schedule 1.  Purchaser, may in its discretion, upon notice to Seller, increase the percentage of the Reserve at any time.  
	In addition, Seller may request that Purchaser purchase an Account without making an Advance.  Upon approval of such Account in Purchaser's sole discretion, Purchaser may purchase such Account without making an Advance.  Any such Account approved by Purchaser for purchase without an Advance shall be deemed a Purchased Account (each, a "Reserve Purchased Account").  Upon purchase of a Reserve Purchased Account the amount of the Reserve shall be increased by the face amount of such Account.  Seller may, after Purchaser purchases a Reserve Purchased Account, request that Purchaser pay to Seller the Advance that would have been made to Seller at the time of purchase had Seller requested the Advance at such time, or any portion thereof.  Purchaser may, in its reasonable discretion, elect to make an Advance with respect to a Reserve Purchased Account.  If Purchaser elects to make such Advance, the Reserve shall be decreased by the amount of such Advance.  If the Purchaser does not elect to make such Advance, the Seller may elect to have the Reserve Purchased Account reassigned to it provided no Event of Default has occurred.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Purchaser make an Advance with respect to a Reserve Purchased Account if (i) an Event of Default or event that with notice, lapse of time or otherwise would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing (ii) Purchaser has made a Remittance from the Reserve after the date such Reserve Purchased Account was purchased, or (iii) after making such Advance and deducting such amount from the Reserve, the Reserve with respect to all Purchased Accounts then outstanding would be less than the percent of the Account Balance set forth on Schedule 1.  Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a LOC Funding Summary and Advance Request form on each date Seller requests that Purchaser make an Advance with respect to a Reserve Purchased Account.  Such requests must be made by 10:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time each business day and are subject to Purchaser's approval.

	Transfer of Accounts.  At the time Purchaser pays the Advance with respect to any Account in immediately available funds, such Account shall constitute a Purchased Account, and Seller hereby absolutely sells, transfers and assigns to Purchaser, all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to each Purchased Account.  Seller also hereby sells, transfers and assigns to Purchaser all of the returned goods represented by each Purchased Account, all of Seller's rights and remedies as an unpaid seller under the California Commercial Code and other applicable law, including the rights of stoppage in transit, replevin, reclamation, and claim and delivery, and all Seller's rights in and to all security for each such Purchased Account and guaranties thereof, and all rights against third parties with respect thereto.  Any goods recovered or received by Seller in connection with an Account shall be set aside marked with Purchaser's name, and held for Purchaser's account as owner.

	Collection of Accounts.  Each Purchased Account shall be collected directly by the Purchaser.  At the request of Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser shall jointly notify each Account Debtor by letter that Purchased Accounts owed by such Account Debtor have been assigned and are payable to Purchaser.  Such notification shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B after transfer of the Account pursuant to Section 1.4.  Seller shall not take or permit any action to change or revoke any notification without Purchaser's prior written consent and shall not request any Account Debtor to pay any Purchased Account to Seller.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Seller receives any payments of any Purchased Accounts, Seller shall (A) immediately notify Purchaser of such payment, (B) hold such payment in trust and safekeeping for Purchaser, and (C) immediately turn over to Purchaser the identical checks, monies or any other forms of payment received, with any necessary endorsement or assignment.  Purchaser shall have the right to endorse Seller's name on all payments received in connection with each Purchased Account and on any other proceeds of Collateral.  If Purchaser receives a check or item which is payment for both a Purchased Account and a non-Purchased Account, the funds shall first be applied to the Purchased Account and, so long as there does not then exist an Event of Default or an event that with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, the excess shall be remitted to Seller.  In the event Purchaser receives any other payments of non-Purchased Accounts, Purchaser shall credit such collections to the Reserve; provided, that if any Event of Default or event that with notice or lapse of time or otherwise would constitute an Event of Default then exists, Purchaser shall have the right to apply such collections, which constitute Collateral, to reduce the Obligations.

	Full Recourse.  The purchase by Purchaser of Purchased Accounts from Seller shall be with full recourse against Seller.  Seller shall be liable for any deficiency in the event the Obligations exceed the amount of Purchased Accounts and the other Collateral.

	Fees and Customer Payments.

	Finance Fees.  Seller shall pay to Purchaser on each Settlement Date, a finance fee in an amount equal to the per annum rate set forth on Schedule 1 of the average daily Obligations (other than any fees under this Exim Agreement that are not yet due) outstanding during the Settlement Period ending on such Settlement Date (the "Finance Fees").  Such accrued Finance Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.  Upon notice by Purchaser to Seller that an Event of Default has occurred hereunder, the per annum rate of the Finance Fees applicable to all Obligations shall be equal to the Finance Fee rate per annum set forth on Schedule 1 plus two percent (2%); provided, that if the Event of Default is capable of being cured and is cured by the tenth (10th) day after such notice, the Finance Fee rate per annum shall be as set forth in Schedule 1.

	Administrative Fees.  Seller shall pay to Purchaser on each Settlement Date, an Administrative Fee equal to the percent set forth on Schedule 1 of the face amount of each Account purchased by Purchaser during the Settlement Period ending on such Settlement Date (the "Administrative Fee").  All Administrative Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.

	Commitment Fee. Seller shall pay to Purchaser on the date of this Exim Agreement, and on each anniversary date of this Exim Agreement, the Commitment Fee set forth on Schedule 1 (the "Commitment Fee").  All Commitment Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.  In the event that this Exim Agreement is terminated in the first six (6) months following the date of this Exim Agreement, the Commitment Fee shall be pro-rated on a weekly basis.

	Transaction Fee. In order to monitor and track Purchased Accounts, a transaction fee will be assessed by Purchaser based upon invoice and payment volume as set forth on Schedule 1 (the "Transaction Fees").  Seller shall pay to Purchaser the Transaction Fees set forth on Schedule 1 as and when set forth on Schedule 1.  All Transaction Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.

	Other Fees.  Seller will pay to Purchaser the other fees and charges set forth in Schedule 1 as and when set forth on Schedule 1 ("Other Fees").  All Other Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.

	Maximum Lawful Rate.  In no event shall any charges that may constitute interest hereunder exceed the highest rate permitted under applicable law.  In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction makes a final determination that Purchaser has received interest hereunder in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be deemed a payment of principal and the interest payable hereunder deemed amended to the amount payable under the maximum lawful rate.

	Crediting Customer Payments.  To allow for application of payments and for purposes of computing Finance Fees, all payments shall be applied to the Obligations on that number of business days identified on Schedule 1 after payments are received by Purchaser (the "Customer Payments").  Payments received after 12:00 p.m. (Pacific Standard Time) on any business day shall be deemed to have been received on the following business day. So long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, Purchaser shall credit such Customer Payment to the amount outstanding with respect to the Purchased Account for which such payment was made. If Purchaser receives a Customer Payment and is unable to identify where funds are to be applied, Purchaser shall inform Seller and hold said funds in suspense.  Funds will remain in suspense and will not be considered an applied payment until Purchaser and Seller agree as to the application of funds.  Customer Payments held in suspense will not be credited until after that number of business days identified on Schedule 1 after payments are the Customer Payment has been released from the suspense account.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and following the Termination Date, Seller hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all such payments received from or on behalf of Seller, and Seller hereby irrevocably agrees that Purchaser shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments, including Customer Payments, to the Obligations in such order and manner as Purchaser shall, in its sole discretion, determine.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Customer Payment is subsequently dishonored or Purchaser does not receive good funds for any reason, the amount of such uncollected Customer Payment shall be included in the Obligations as if such Customer Payment had not been received, and Finance Fees shall accrue thereon, and the credit to the Obligations shall be reversed.  

	Optional Repurchase.  Seller shall have the option at any time to repurchase any Purchased Accounts by paying the outstanding amount of all Advances with respect to such Purchased Account together with all Finance Fees and all other Obligations accrued and unpaid as of the date of such repurchase with respect to such Purchased Account and by paying a repurchase fee identified in Schedule 1 ("Repurchase Fee").

	Accounting.  Purchaser shall deliver to Seller after each Settlement Date, a statement of Seller's account which shall include an accounting of the transactions of the Settlement Period, including the amount of all Finance Fees, Administrative Fees, Adjustments, Chargeback Amounts, Customer Payments and Purchased Accounts. The accounting shall constitute an account stated and shall be binding on Seller and deemed correct unless Seller delivers to Purchaser a written objection within thirty (30) days after such accounting is mailed to Seller. 

	Adjustments, Chargebacks and Remittances.

	Adjustments.  In the event any Account Debtor asserts any offset, defense, counterclaim, dispute, discount, allowance, right of return, right of recoupment, or warranty claim with respect to a Purchased Account, or pays less than the face amount of such Purchased Account (each, an "Adjustment"), Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, either (A) deduct the amount of the Adjustment multiplied by the Advance Rate that was applicable to such Purchased Account at the time it was purchased in calculating the Remittance, or (B) chargeback to Seller that portion of the Purchased Account with respect to which the Adjustment is asserted.  Seller shall advise Purchaser immediately upon learning of any Adjustment asserted by any Account Debtor.

	Purchased Account No Longer Meeting Eligibility Requirements.   In the event any Purchased Account fails to constitute an Exim Eligible Foreign Account after the date it is purchased, Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, either (A) deduct the amount of such Purchased Account multiplied by the Advance Rate that was applicable to such Purchased Account at the time it was purchased, in calculating the Remittance, or (B) chargeback to Seller the Purchased Account that is no longer an Exim Eligible Foreign Account.  Seller shall advise Purchaser immediately upon learning of any Purchased Account that is no longer an Eligible Account.  Purchaser shall provide reasonable notice to Seller of any Purchased Account that is no longer an Exim Eligible Foreign Account.

	Chargebacks.  Purchaser shall have the right to charge back to Seller any Purchased Account:

	which remains unpaid ninety (90) calendar days after the invoice date;
	with respect to which there has been a breach of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement set forth in this Exim Agreement;
	with respect to which the Account Debtor asserts any Adjustment; 
	which is no longer an Exim Eligible Foreign Account; or
	which is owed by an Account Debtor that has filed, or has had filed against it, any bankruptcy case, insolvency proceeding, assignment for the benefit of creditors, receivership or insolvency proceeding, or that has become insolvent (as defined in the United States Bankruptcy Code) or that is generally not paying its debts as such debts become due.

Upon demand by Purchaser, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the full face amount of any Advances with respect to any Purchased Account which has been charged back to Seller pursuant to this Section 3.3, or to the extent partial payment has been made, the amount by which the face amount of any Advances with respect to such Purchased Account which has been charged back to Seller exceeds such partial payment, together with any attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Purchaser in connection with collecting such Purchased Account (collectively, the "Chargeback Amount").  Purchaser shall advise Seller regarding how the Chargeback Amount shall be paid, which may be by any one or a combination of the following, in Purchaser's sole discretion: (1) payment in cash immediately upon demand; (2) deduction from or offset against any Remittance that would otherwise be payable to Seller; (3) payment from any Advances that may otherwise be made to Seller; (4) adjustment to the Reserve pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof; or (5) delivery of substitute Accounts and a Schedule of Accounts acceptable to Purchaser, which Accounts shall constitute Purchased Accounts.

	Remittance.  Purchaser shall, in its sole discretion, remit to Seller within five (5) business days after the next Settlement Date, or within five (5) business days after the end of each calendar month, the amount, if any, that Purchaser owes to Seller at the end of the Settlement Period or for all Settlement Periods ending during the immediately preceding month if Purchaser elects to make such remittance to Seller after the end of a calendar month, based on the following calculations set forth below (the "Remittance"); provided, that if there then exists any Event of Default or any event or condition that with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, Purchaser shall not be obligated to remit any payments to Seller.  If the amount resulting from the following calculation is a positive number, such amount is the amount of the Remittance for such Settlement Period.  If the resulting amount is a negative number, such amount is the amount owed by Seller to Purchaser. 

The calculations to be used are as follows:

	The sum of the following:

	The Reserve as of the beginning of the subject Settlement Period, plus
	The Reserve created for each Account purchased during the subject Settlement Period;

MINUS

	The sum of the following:

	Finance Fees accrued during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	Administrative Fees accrued during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	Commitment Fee accrued during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	Transaction Fees accrued during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	Other Fees accrued during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	Adjustments during the subject Settlement Period if Purchaser has not charged back such Purchased Account or a portion of such Purchased Account for which the Adjustment is asserted; plus
	The face amount of any Purchased Account no longer deemed to be an Exim Eligible Foreign Account, multiplied by the Advance Rate applicable to such Account at the time it was purchased, if Purchaser has not charged back such Purchased Account;
	Chargeback Amounts, to the extent Purchaser has agreed to accept payment of any such Chargeback Amount by deduction from the Remittance; plus
	All reasonable professional fees and expenses as set forth in Section 9 for which oral or written demand has been made by Purchaser during the subject Settlement Period; plus
	The Reserve for the Account Balance as of the first day of the following Settlement Period in the minimum percentage set forth in Section 1.3 hereof.

If the foregoing calculations result in a Remittance payable to Seller, Purchaser shall make such payment, subject to Purchaser's rights of offset and recoupment, and its right to deduct any Chargeback Amount as set forth in Section 3.2.  If the foregoing calculations result in an amount due to Purchaser from Seller, Seller shall make such payment by any one or a combination of the methods set forth in Section 3.2 hereof for chargebacks, as determined by Purchaser in its discretion. 

	Power of Attorney.  Seller hereby appoints Purchaser and its designees as Seller's true and lawful attorney in fact, to exercise in Purchaser's discretion, and regardless of whether an Event of Default is then existing, all of the following powers, such powers being coupled with an interest:  (A) to notify all Account Debtors with respect to the Purchased Accounts to make payment directly to Purchaser;  (B) to receive, deposit, and endorse Seller's name on all checks, drafts, money orders and other forms of payment relating to the Purchased Accounts;  (C) to demand, collect, receive, sue and give releases to any Account Debtor for the monies due or which may become due on or in connection with the Purchased Accounts;  (D) to compromise, prosecute, or defend any action, claim, case, or proceeding relating to the Purchased Accounts, including the filing of a claim or the voting of such claims in any bankruptcy case, all in Purchaser's name or Seller's name, as Purchaser may elect;  (E) to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, compromise, or discharge any Purchased Accounts;  (F) to receive, open,  redirect and dispose of all mail addressed to Seller for the purpose of collecting the Purchased Accounts and to take all the actions permitted in subsection (B) above with respect to any payments in any such mail;  (G) to execute in the name of Seller and file against Seller in favor of Purchaser such financing statements and other agreements as Purchaser deems necessary to evidence or perfect its security interest in the Purchased Accounts and the other Collateral; and  (H) to do all acts and things necessary or expedient, in furtherance of any such purposes.

All remedies set forth herein shall be cumulative and none exclusive.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Exim Bank shall have a right to:  (i) direct Purchaser to exercise the remedies specified in this Section 8 and (ii) request that Purchaser accelerate the maturity of any other loans to Seller as to which Purchaser has a right to accelerate.

In the event that it sends such a notification to Exim Bank, Purchaser shall have the right thereafter to send Exim Bank a written report on the status of the events covered by said notification on each business day which occurs every thirty (30) calendar days after the date of said notification, until such time as Purchaser files a claim with Exim Bank or said default or other events have been cured.  Purchaser shall not have any obligation to make any Advances following said notification to Exim Bank, unless Exim Bank gives its written approval thereto.  If directed to do so by Exim Bank, Purchaser shall have a right promptly to exercise any rights it may have against Seller to demand the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Exim Loan Documents.

	Attorneys' Fees.  Seller shall pay to Purchaser on the closing date of this Exim Agreement and thereafter immediately upon demand, all costs and expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals, that Purchaser incurs in connection with any and all of the following:  (A) preparing, amending, supplementing, negotiating and enforcing this Exim Agreement, or any other agreement executed in connection herewith;  (B) perfecting, protecting or enforcing Purchaser's interest in the Purchased Accounts and the other Collateral;  (C) collecting the Purchased Accounts and the Obligations;  (D) defending or in any way addressing claims made or litigation initiated by or against Purchaser as a result of Purchaser's relationship with Seller or any guarantor; and  (E) representing Purchaser in connection with any bankruptcy case or insolvency proceeding involving Seller, any Purchased Account, any other Collateral or any Account Debtor;  (F) any costs incurred in relation to opposing or seeking to obtain relief from any stay or restructuring order prohibiting Purchaser from exercising its rights as a secured creditor, foreclosing upon or disposing of the Purchased Accounts or the Collateral, or such related matters; and  (G) fees that Purchaser pays to Exim Bank in consideration of the issuance of the Exim Guarantee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination of this Exim Agreement shall not affect Purchaser's security interest in the Collateral and Purchaser's ownership of the Purchased Accounts, and this Exim Agreement shall continue to be effective, and Purchaser's rights and remedies hereunder shall survive such termination, until all transactions entered into and Obligations incurred hereunder or in connection herewith have been completed and satisfied in full.

	Miscellaneous.
