        This AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") dated as of

Bank. This Agreement amends and restates that certain Loan and Security Agreement between Bank and NMS Borrower dated as of May 6, 2008. The parties agree as follows: 

        1    ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS    

        Accounting
terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term "financial statements" includes
the notes and schedules. The terms "including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without limitation," in this or any Loan Document. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this
Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meanings provided by the Code, to the extent
such terms are defined therein. 

        2    LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT    

        2.1    Promise to Pay.    Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to
pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Advances hereunder with all interest, fees and finance charges due thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement. 

        2.1.1    Financing of Accounts.    

        (a)   Availability.    Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower may request that Bank finance specific
Eligible Accounts. Bank may, in its good faith business discretion, finance such Eligible Accounts by extending credit to Borrower in an amount equal to the result of the Advance Rate multiplied by
the face amount of the Eligible Account (the "Advance"). Bank may, in its sole discretion, change the percentage of the Advance Rate for a particular Eligible Account on a case by case basis. When
Bank makes an Advance, the Eligible Account becomes a "Financed Receivable." 

        (b)   Maximum Advances.    The aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time may not
exceed the Facility Amount. 

        (c)   Borrowing Procedure.    Borrower will deliver an Invoice Transmittal for each Eligible Account it offers. Bank
may rely on information set forth in or provided with the Invoice Transmittal. 

        (d)   Credit Quality; Confirmations.    Bank may, at its option, conduct a credit check of the Account Debtor for
each Account requested by Borrower for financing hereunder in order to approve any such Account Debtor's credit before agreeing to finance such Account. Bank may also verify directly with the
respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to the Accounts (including confirmations of Borrower's representations in Section 5.3) by means of mail, telephone or
otherwise, either in the name of Borrower or Bank from time to time in its sole discretion. 

 

        (e)   Accounts Notification/Collection.    Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank's security
interest in the funds and verify and/or collect the amount of the Account. 

        (f)    Early Termination.    This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Maturity Date as follows: (i) by
Borrower, effective three Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default which has not been cured or
otherwise waived in writing by Bank, without notice, effective immediately. If this Agreement is terminated (A) by Bank in accordance with clause (ii) in the foregoing sentence, or
(B) by Borrower for any reason, Borrower shall pay to Bank a termination fee in an amount equal to Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000.00) (the "Early Termination Fee"). The Early Termination Fee
shall be due and payable on the effective date of such termination and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Bank agrees to waive the Early Termination Fee if Bank agrees to refinance and redocument this Agreement under another division of Bank (in its sole and exclusive discretion) prior to the
Maturity Date. 

        (g)   Maturity.    This Agreement shall terminate and all Obligations outstanding hereunder shall be immediately due
and payable on the Maturity Date. 

        (h)   Suspension of Advances.    Borrower's ability to request that Bank finance Eligible Accounts hereunder will
terminate if, in Bank's sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospect of
repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of
this Agreement. 

        2.2    Collections, Finance Charges, Remittances and Fees.    The
Obligations shall be subject to the following fees and Finance Charges. Unpaid fees and Finance Charges may, in Bank's discretion, accrue interest and fees as described in Section 9.2 hereof. 

        2.2.1    Collections.    Collections will be credited to the Financed
Receivable Balance for such Financed Receivable, but if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply Collections to
the Obligations in any order it chooses. If Bank receives a payment for both a Financed Receivable and a non-Financed Receivable, the funds will first be applied to the Financed Receivable
and, if there is no Event of Default then existing, the excess will be remitted to Borrower, subject to Section 2.2.7. 

        2.2.2    Facility Fee.    Except as otherwise agreed by Bank and
Borrower in writing, a fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Ninety Thousand Dollars ($90,000.00) is due upon the earlier of (a) December 31, 2008, or (b) the
termination of this Agreement, or (c) the occurrence of an Event of Default (the "Facility Fee"). 

        2.2.3    Finance Charges.    In computing Finance Charges on the
Obligations under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of the Obligations three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Collections.
Borrower will pay a finance charge (the "Finance Charge") on the Financed Receivable Balance which is equal to the Applicable Rate divided by 360  multiplied by the number of days each such Financed Receivable is outstanding multiplied by the
outstanding Financed Receivable Balance. The Finance Charge is payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof. During the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Applicable Rate will increase an additional four percent (4.0%) per annum effective immediately upon the occurrence of such Event of Default (the
"Default Rate") and such increased rate shall remain in effect until such Event of Default has been cured or otherwise waived by Bank in writing. 

        2.2.4    Collateral Handling Fee.    Borrower will pay to Bank a
collateral handling fee equal to 0.375% per month of the Financed Receivable Balance for each Financed Receivable outstanding based 

2

 

upon
a 360 day year (the "Collateral Handling Fee"). This fee is charged on a daily basis which is equal to the Collateral Handling Fee divided by 30, multiplied by the number of days each such
Financed Receivable is outstanding, multiplied by the outstanding Financed Receivable Balance. The Collateral Handling Fee is payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable
in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof. In computing Collateral Handling Fees under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of Obligations
three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Collections. During the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Handling Fee will increase by an additional 0.50%
effective immediately upon such Event of Default and such increased rate shall remain in effect until such Event of Default has been cured or otherwise waived by Bank in writing. 

        2.2.5    Accounting.    After each Reconciliation Period, Bank will
provide an accounting of the transactions for that Reconciliation Period, including the amount of all Financed Receivables, all Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, Collateral Handling Fee and
the Facility Fee. If Borrower does not object to the accounting in writing within thirty (30) days after the date on which Borrower receives such accounting, it shall be considered accurate.
All Finance Charges and other interest and fees are calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed. 

        2.2.6    Deductions.    Bank may deduct fees, Finance Charges,
Advances which become due pursuant to Section 2.3, and other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement from any Advances made or Collections received by Bank. 

        2.2.7    Lockbox; Account Collection Services.    

        (a)   As
and when directed by Bank from time to time, at Bank's option and at the sole and exclusive discretion of Bank (regardless of whether an Event of Default has
occurred), Borrower shall direct each Account Debtor (and each depository institution where proceeds of Accounts are on deposit) to remit payments with respect to the Accounts to a lockbox account
established with Bank or to wire transfer payments to a cash collateral account that Bank controls (collectively, the "Lockbox"). It will be considered
an immediate Event of Default if the Lockbox is not set-up and operational within forty-five (45) days from the date of such direction by Bank. 

        (b)   Until
such Lockbox is established, the proceeds of the Accounts shall be paid by the Account Debtors to an address consented to by Bank (and Bank hereby consents to
proceeds being paid to Borrower at the address set forth in the preamble of this Agreement). Upon receipt by Borrower of such proceeds, Borrower shall immediately transfer and deliver same to Bank,
along with a detailed cash receipts journal. Provided no Event of Default exists, within three (3) days of receipt of such amounts by Bank, Bank will turn over to Borrower the proceeds of the
Accounts other than Collections with respect to Financed Receivables and the amount of Collections in excess of the amounts for which Bank has made an Advance to Borrower, less any amounts due to
Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility Fee, payments due to Bank, other fees and expenses, or otherwise; provided, however, Bank may hold such excess amount with respect to Financed
Receivables as a reserve until the end of the applicable Reconciliation Period if Bank, in its discretion, determines that other Financed Receivable(s) may no longer qualify as an Eligible Account at
any time prior to the end of the subject Reconciliation Period. This Section does not impose any affirmative duty on Bank to perform any act other than as specifically set forth herein. All Accounts
and the proceeds thereof are Collateral and if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply the proceeds of such Accounts to the Obligations. 

        2.2.8    Bank Expenses.    Borrower shall pay all Bank Expenses
incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due. 

        2.3    Repayment of Obligations; Adjustments.    

        2.3.1    Repayment.    Borrower will repay each Advance on the
earliest of: (a) the date on which payment is received of the Financed Receivable with respect to which the Advance was made, (b) the 

3

 

date
on which the Financed Receivable is no longer an Eligible Account, (c) the date on which any Adjustment is asserted to the Financed Receivable (but only to the extent of the Adjustment if
the Financed Receivable remains otherwise an Eligible Account), (d) the date on which there is a breach of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 5.3, or a breach of any
covenant in this Agreement or (e) the Maturity Date (including any early termination). Each payment will also include all accrued Finance Charges and Collateral Handling Fees with respect to
such Advance and all other amounts then due and payable hereunder. 

        2.3.2    Repayment on Event of Default.    When an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Borrower will, if Bank demands (or, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.5, immediately without notice or demand from Bank)
repay all of the Advances. The demand may, at Bank's option, include the Advance for each Financed Receivable then outstanding and all accrued Finance Charges, the Early Termination Fee, Collateral
Handling Fee, the Facility Fee, reasonable attorneys' and professional fees, court costs and expenses, and any other Obligations. 

        2.3.3    Debit of Accounts.    Bank may debit any of Borrower's
deposit accounts for payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank hereunder. Bank shall promptly notify Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits shall not constitute a
set-off. 

        2.3.4    Adjustments.    If, at any time during the term of this
Agreement, any Account Debtor asserts an Adjustment, Borrower issues a credit memorandum, or any of the representations and warranties in Section 5.3 or covenants in this Agreement are no
longer true in all material respects, Borrower will promptly advise Bank. 

        2.4    Power of Attorney.    Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank and
its successors and assigns as attorney-in-fact and authorizes Bank, to: (a) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, (i) sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
compromise, or discharge all or any part of the Financed Receivables; (ii) demand, collect, sue, and give releases to any Account Debtor for monies due and compromise, prosecute, or defend any
action, claim, case or proceeding about the Financed Receivables, including filing a claim or voting a claim in any bankruptcy case in Bank's or Borrower's name, as Bank chooses; and
(iii) prepare, file and sign Borrower's name on any notice, claim, assignment, demand, draft, or notice of or satisfaction of lien or mechanics' lien or similar document; and
(b) regardless of whether there has been an Event of Default, (i) notify all Account Debtors to pay Bank directly; (ii) receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Borrower;
(iii) endorse Borrower's name on checks or other instruments (to the extent necessary to pay amounts owed pursuant to this Agreement); and (iv) execute on Borrower's behalf any
instruments, documents, financing statements to perfect Bank's interests in the Financed Receivables and Collateral and do all acts and things necessary or expedient, as determined solely and
exclusively by Bank, to protect or preserve, Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, as directed by Bank.

authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank's interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any
disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code. Any such financing statements may indicate the Collateral in a
manner consistent with Exhibit A hereto or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in
Bank's discretion. 

        5    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES    

        Borrower
represents and warrants as follows: 

        5.1    Due Organization and Authorization.    Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries are duly existing and in good standing as Registered Organizations in their respective jurisdictions of formation and are qualified and licensed to do business and are in good standing in
any jurisdiction in which the conduct of their respective business or ownership of property requires that they be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on Borrower's business. Each Borrower has previously delivered to Bank a Perfection Certificate. Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that (a) Borrower's exact legal
name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the
Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower's organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the
Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower's place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower's mailing address (if different than its chief executive
office); (e) Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational
number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete (it being
understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Effective Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions
in this Agreement). If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of such occurrence and provide Bank with Borrower's organizational
identification number. 

        The
execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of Borrower's
organizational documents,
(ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) other than
filing this Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority
(except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect) or (v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is
bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could have a material adverse effect on Borrower's business. 

        5.2    Collateral.    Borrower has good title, has rights in, and the
power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no deposit accounts other than
the deposit accounts with Bank, the deposit accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith, or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken
such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors. All Inventory is in all material respects of
good and marketable quality, free from material defects. 

6

 

        The
Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate and except with respect to mobile
equipment in possession of employees with an aggregate value note exceeding Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00). None of the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as
provided in the Perfection Certificate or as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2, except for mobile equipment in possession of employees with an aggregate value not exceeding Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($50,000.00). In the event that Borrower, after the date hereof, intends to store or otherwise deliver any portion of the Collateral to a bailee (except with respect to mobile equipment in
possession of employees with an aggregate value not exceeding Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), then Borrower will first receive the written consent of Bank and such bailee must execute and deliver
a bailee agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank in its reasonable discretion. 

        Except
as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any material license or other agreement with respect to which Borrower is the licensee
(a) that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower's interest in such license or agreement or any other property, or (b) for which a default
under or termination of could interfere with Bank's right to sell any Collateral. Without prior consent from Bank, Borrower shall not enter into, or become bound by, any such license or agreement
which is reasonably likely to have a material impact on Borrower's business or financial condition. Borrower shall take such steps as Bank requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person
whose consent or waiver is necessary for all such licenses or contract rights to be deemed "Collateral" and for Bank to have a security interest in it that might
otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future. 

        5.3    Financed Receivables.    Borrower represents and warrants for
each Financed Receivable: 

        (a)   Such
Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account; 

        (b)   Borrower
is the owner of and has the legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable; 

        (c)   The
correct amount is on the Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed; 

        (d)   Payment
is not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Invoice Transmittal date; 

        (e)   Such
Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been
previously sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens; 

        (f)    There
are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount; 

        (g)   Borrower
reasonably believes no Account Debtor is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings; 

        (h)   Borrower
has not filed or had filed against it Insolvency Proceedings and does not anticipate any filing; 

        (i)    Bank
has the right to endorse and/or require Borrower to endorse all payments received on Financed Receivables and all proceeds of Collateral; and 

        (j)    No
written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank in connection with this Agreement, as of the
date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank in connection with this Agreement, contains any
untrue statement of a 

7

 

material
fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading (it
being recognized by Bank that projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or
periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results). 

        5.4    Litigation.    There are no actions or proceedings pending or,
to the knowledge of Borrower's Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which an adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material
Adverse Change. 

        5.5    No Material Deterioration in Financial Statements.    All
consolidated financial statements for Borrower and any Subsidiaries delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower's consolidated financial condition and Borrower's consolidated
results of operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower's consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Bank. 

        5.6    Solvency.    The fair salable value of Borrower's assets
(including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower is
able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature. 

        5.7    Regulatory Compliance.    Borrower is not an "investment
company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for
margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a "holding company" or an "affiliate" of a "holding
company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company" as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has complied in all material respects with the
Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower's or
any Subsidiary's properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or
transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and
given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted. 

        5.8    Subsidiaries.    Borrower does not own any stock, partnership
interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments. 

        5.9    Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions.    Borrower
and each Subsidiary have timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower and each Subsidiary have timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and
contributions owed by Borrower and each Subsidiary. Borrower may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by

permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any

        9    BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES    

        9.1    Rights and Remedies.    When an Event of Default occurs and
continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law: 

        (a)   declare
all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable
without any action by Bank); 

        (b)   stop
advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank; 

        (c)   demand
that Borrower (i) deposits cash with Bank in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn, as collateral security for
the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be
paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit; 

        (d)   settle
or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable and notify any Person owing
Borrower money of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account. Borrower shall collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the
payments to Bank in the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit; 

        (e)   make
any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Bank
requests and make it available as Bank designates at a location that is reasonably convenient to Bank and Borrower. Bank may peaceably enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain
possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower
grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge by Borrower, to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies; 

14

 

        (f)    apply
to the Obligations then due any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the
account of Borrower; 

        (g)   ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a
non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade
names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and,
in connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank's benefit; 

        (h)   place
a "hold" on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to
any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral; 

        (i)    demand
and receive possession of Borrower's Books; and 

        (j)    exercise
all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of
the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof). 

        9.2    Protective Payments.    If Borrower fails to obtain insurance
called for by Section 6.4 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or by any other Loan Document, Bank may
obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the
Collateral. Bank will make reasonable effort to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are
deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank's waiver of any Event of Default. 

        9.3    Bank's Liability for Collateral.    So long as Bank complies
with applicable law and reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of Collateral in possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the
safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman,
bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral. 

        9.4    Remedies Cumulative.    Bank's failure, at any time or times,
to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance
and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank's rights
and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is
not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank's delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. 

        9.5    Demand Waiver.    Borrower waives demand, notice of default or
dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper,
and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable. 

        10    NOTICES    

        All

validly 

15

 

served,
given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt

Section 10. 

        11    CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER    

        Massachusetts
law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts
in Massachusetts; provided, however, that if for any reason Bank cannot avail itself of such courts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Borrower accepts jurisdiction of the courts and venue in Santa
Clara County, California. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction
to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such
jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non
conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other
process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth
in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower's actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the
U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

        12    GENERAL PROVISIONS    

        12.1    Successors and Assigns.    This Agreement binds and is for the
benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank's prior written consent which may be granted or
withheld in Bank's discretion. Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank's
obligations, rights and benefits under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any related agreement. 

        12.2    Indemnification.    Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend, and

        12.3    Right of Set-Off.    Borrower hereby grants to
Bank, a lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all Obligations to Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property,
now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Bank or any entity under the control of Bank (including a Bank subsidiary) or in transit to any of them. At any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Bank may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any Obligation of Borrower then due and
payable regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH
SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. 

        12.4    Time of Essence.    Time is of the essence for the performance
of all Obligations in this Agreement. 

        12.5    Severability of Provisions.    Each provision of this
Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision. 

        12.6    Amendments in Writing; Integration.    All amendments to this
Agreement must be in writing signed by both Bank and Borrower. This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter, and supersede prior negotiations or
agreements. All prior agreements,
understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents. 

        12.7    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement. 

        12.8    Borrower Liability.    Any Borrower
may, acting singly, request Advances hereunder. Each Borrower hereby appoints the others as agent for the all others for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Advances
hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Advances made hereunder, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Advance, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received  all Advances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may
have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Bank under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of
reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations
in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower
with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall
be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank
for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

        Each
Borrower waives any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law. Each Borrower waives any right to require Bank to: (a) proceed against any
Borrower or any other person; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (c) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any
Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower's liability. 

17

 

        12.9    Survival.    All covenants, representations and warranties
made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which,
by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of
limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run. 

        12.10    Confidentiality.    In handling any financial statements of
Borrower or other confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to
Bank's Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Advances (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such
prospective transferee's or purchaser's agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Bank's regulators or as otherwise
required in connection with Bank's examination or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of

sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

        12.11    Ratification of Perfection Certificate.    Each Borrower
hereby ratifies, confirms and reaffirms, all and singular, the terms and disclosures contained in its respective Perfection Certificate, and acknowledges, confirms and agrees the disclosures and

 [SVB SILICON VALLEY BANK LOGO]  

 SPECIALTY FINANCE DIVISION

Compliance Certificate  

        I, an authorized officer of NMS Communications Corporation, NMS Communications International Corporation, LiveWire Mobile, Inc.,
and Groove Mobile, Inc. (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, "Borrower") certify under the Loan and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") between Borrower and Silicon Valley
Bank ("Bank") as follows (all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement): 

 Borrower represents and warrants for each Financed Receivable:  

        Each Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account. 

        Borrower
is the owner with legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable; 

        The
correct amount is on the Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed; 

        Payment
is not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Invoice Transmittal date; 

        Each
Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been previously sold,
assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens; 

        There
are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount; 

        It
reasonably believes no Account Debtor is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings; 

        It
has not filed or had filed against it Insolvency Proceedings and does not anticipate any filing; 

        Bank
has the right to endorse and/ or require Borrower to endorse all payments received on Financed Receivables and all proceeds of Collateral. 

        No
written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank in connection with this Agreement, as of the date such
representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank in connection with this Agreement, contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading (it being recognized by Bank that projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during
the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results). 

 Additionally, Borrower represents and warrants as follows:  

        Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business
in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's organizational documents, nor
constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which 

1

 

Borrower
is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 

        Borrower
has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. 

        Borrower
is not an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is a "holding company" or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company" as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act
of 2005. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has
complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a
Material Adverse Change. None of Borrower's or any Subsidiary's properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by previous Persons, in
disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate
provision to pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations
of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure to obtain or
make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 

        All
representations and warranties in the Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on this date, and Borrower represents that there is no existing Event of Default.
