Exhibit 10.3

UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTY

(Corporate)

For and in consideration of the loan by COMERICA BANK (“Bank”) to AURIGA LABORATORIES, INC.
(“Borrower”), which loan is made pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement between Borrower and
Bank dated as of even date herewith, as may be amended from time to time (the “Agreement”), and
acknowledging that Bank would not enter into the Agreement without the benefit of this Guaranty,
the undersigned guarantor (“Guarantor”) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the
prompt and complete payment of all amounts that Borrower owes to Bank and performance by Borrower
of the Agreement and any other agreements between Borrower and Bank, as amended from time to time
(collectively referred to as the “Agreements”), in strict accordance with their respective terms.
All terms used without definition in this Guaranty shall have the meaning assigned to them in the
Agreement.

1. If Borrower does not pay any amount or perform its obligations in strict accordance with
the Agreements, Guarantor shall immediately pay all amounts due thereunder (including, without
limitation, all principal, interest, and fees) and otherwise to proceed to complete the same and
satisfy all of Borrower’s obligations under the Agreements.

2. If there is more than one guarantor, the obligations hereunder are joint and several, and
whether or not there is more than one guarantor, the obligations hereunder are independent of the
obligations of Borrower and any other person or entity, and a separate action or actions may be
brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether action is brought against Borrower or whether
Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of
limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, to the extent permitted
by law. Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is not conditioned or contingent upon the
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Agreements.

3. Guarantor authorizes Bank, without notice or demand and without affecting its liability
hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, extend, or otherwise change the terms of the Agreements
or any part thereof; (b) take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the Agreements,
and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; and (c) apply such security and direct
the order or manner of sale thereof as Bank in its sole discretion may determine.

4. Guarantor waives any right to require Bank to (a) proceed against Borrower , any guarantor
or any other person; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower; or (c) pursue
any other remedy in Bank’s power whatsoever. Bank may, at its election, exercise or decline or
fail to exercise any right or remedy it may have against Borrower or any security held by Bank,
including without limitation the right to foreclose upon any such security by judicial or
nonjudicial sale, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Guarantor hereunder.
Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Borrower or by
reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower. Guarantor waives
any setoff, defense or counterclaim that Borrower may have against Bank. Guarantor waives any
defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement or subrogation
or any other rights against Borrower. Until all of the amounts that Borrower owes to Bank have
been paid in full, Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation or reimbursement, contribution or
other rights against Borrower, and Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy that Bank now
has or may hereafter have against Borrower. Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for
performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and
notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or
additional indebtedness. Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping itself
informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all other circumstances bearing upon the
risk of nonpayment of any indebtedness or nonperformance of any obligation of Borrower, warrants to
Bank that it will keep so informed, and agrees that absent a request for particular information by
Guarantor, Bank shall not have any duty to advise Guarantor of information known to Bank regarding
such condition or any such circumstances. Guarantor waives the benefits of California Civil Code
sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433.

5. Guarantor acknowledges that, to the extent Guarantor has or may have certain rights of
subrogation or reimbursement against Borrower for claims arising out of this Guaranty, those rights
may be impaired or destroyed if Bank elects to proceed against any real property security of
Borrower by non-judicial
foreclosure. That impairment or destruction could, under certain judicial cases and based on
equitable principles of estoppel, give rise to a defense by Guarantor against its obligations under
this Guaranty. Guarantor waives that defense and any others arising from Bank’s election to pursue
non-judicial foreclosure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor waives any
and all benefits and defenses under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d
and 726, to the extent they are applicable.

Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Bank even
though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a
guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement
against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

Without limiting the generality of any other waiver or other provision set forth in this
Guaranty, each undersigned Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that any such undersigned
Guarantor may have because the Indebtedness is secured by real property. This means, among other
things:

(1) Bank may collect from any undersigned Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or
personal property collateral pledged by any Borrower to secure the Indebtedness.

(2) If Bank forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower to secure the
Indebtedness:

(a) the amount of the Indebtedness may be reduced only by the price for which that
collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the
sale price.

(b) Bank may collect from any undersigned Guarantor even if Bank, by foreclosing on the
real property pledged as collateral, has destroyed any right that the undersigned Guarantor
may have to collect from Borrower.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each undersigned
Guarantor may have because the Indebtedness is secured by Real Property. These rights and defenses
include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726
of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

6. If Borrower becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files a petition for
reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under any present or future provision of
the United States Bankruptcy Code, or if such a petition is filed against Borrower, and in any such
proceeding some or all of any indebtedness or obligations under the Agreements are terminated or
rejected or any obligation of Borrower is modified or abrogated, or if Borrower’s obligations are
otherwise avoided for any reason, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall not
thereby be affected or modified and such liability shall continue in full force and effect as if no
such action or proceeding had occurred. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if any payment must be returned by Bank upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor, or otherwise, as though
such payment had not been made.

7. Any indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated to
any indebtedness of Borrower to Bank; and such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor shall be
collected, enforced and received by Guarantor as trustee for Bank and be paid over to Bank on
account of the indebtedness of Borrower to Bank but without reducing or affecting in any manner the
liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

8. Guarantor agrees to pay reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses which
are incurred by Bank in the enforcement of this Guaranty. No terms or provisions of this Guaranty
may be changed, waived, revoked or amended without the prior written consent of Bank and Guarantor.
Should any provision of this Guaranty be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unenforceable, all of the other provisions shall remain effective. This Guaranty, together with
any agreements (including without limitation any security agreements or any pledge agreements)
executed in connection with this Guaranty, embodies the entire agreement
among the parties hereto with respect to the matters set forth herein, and supersedes all
prior agreements among the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein. No course of
prior dealing among the parties, no usage of trade, and no parol or extrinsic evidence of any
nature shall be used to supplement, modify or vary any of the terms hereof. There are no
conditions to the full effectiveness of this Guaranty. Bank may assign this Guaranty without in
any way affecting Guarantor’s liability under it. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Bank
and its successors and assigns. This Guaranty is in addition to the guaranties of any other
guarantors and any and all other guaranties of Borrower’s indebtedness or liabilities to Bank.

9. Guarantor represents and warrants to Bank that (i) Guarantor has taken all necessary and
appropriate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty, (ii)
execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in a breach of
or constitute a default under Guarantor’s Articles / Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or
other organizational documents or agreements to which it is party or by which it is bound, and
(iii) this Guaranty constitutes a valid and binding obligation, enforceable against Guarantor in
accordance with its terms.

10. Guarantor covenants and agrees that Guarantor shall do all of the following:

10.1 Guarantor shall maintain its corporate existence, remain in good standing in Delaware,
and continue to qualify in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify could have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, operations or business of Guarantor. Guarantor
shall maintain in force all licenses, approvals and agreements, the loss of which could have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition, operations or business.

10.2 Guarantor shall comply with all statutes, laws, ordinances, directives, orders, and
government rules and regulations to which it is subject if non-compliance with such laws could
adversely affect the financial condition, operations or business of Guarantor.

10.3 At any time and from time to time Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further
instruments and take such further action as may reasonably be requested by Bank to effect the
purposes of this Guaranty.

11. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.

This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the
State of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each of Borrower and Bank
hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts located in the County
of Santa Clara, State of California. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH
COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL
PARTIES, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO
THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED PARTIES.

12. REFERENCE PROVISION.

In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to
proceed under this Judicial Reference Provision.

 

3

 

12.1 Mechanics.

(a) With the exception of the items specified in clause (c), below, any controversy, dispute
or claim (each, a “Claim”) between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any
other document, instrument or agreement between the undersigned parties (collectively in this
Section, the “Comerica Documents”), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in
accordance with the provisions of Sections
638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”), or their successor sections,
which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim, including whether the
Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in the Comerica
Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the state or federal court in the county
or district where the real property involved in the action, if any, is located or in the state or
federal court in the county or district where venue is otherwise appropriate under applicable law
(the “Court”).

(b) The matters that shall not be subject to a reference are the following: (i) nonjudicial
foreclosure of any security interests in real or personal property, (ii) exercise of self-help
remedies (including, without limitation, set-off), (iii) appointment of a receiver and (iv)
temporary, provisional or ancillary remedies (including, without limitation, writs of attachment,
writs of possession, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions). This reference
provision does not limit the right of any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and
remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or oppose from a court of competent
jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or opposition
to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this
reference provision as provided herein.

(c) The referee shall be a retired judge or justice selected by mutual written agreement of
the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten (10) days of a written request to do so by any
party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by the Presiding Judge of the
Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex
parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result if ex parte
relief is not granted. Pursuant to CCP § 170.6, each party shall have one peremptory challenge to
the referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative).

(d) The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings.
Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to change in the time periods specified herein
for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within
fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try all issues
of law or fact within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii)
report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for
decision.

(e) The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The
referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s
failure to provide requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based
upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery,
depositions may be taken by either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other
discovery shall be responded to within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating to
discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision
shall be final and binding.

12.2 Procedures. Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine
the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings,
the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that arise with respect to the
course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee,
except for trial, shall be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so
requests, a court reporter will be used at any hearing conducted before the referee, and the
referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall
have the obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to
award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the
court reporter at trial.

 

4

 

12.3 Application of Law. The referee shall be required to determine all issues in
accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of
evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the
reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief,
enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and rule on any motion which would be
authorized in a court proceeding, including without limitation motions for summary judgment or
summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding
which disposes of all claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP
§ 644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as
if the action had been
tried by the Court and any such decision will be final, binding and conclusive. The parties
reserve the right to appeal from the final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or
order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of
laws, a written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different
judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this provision.

12.4 Repeal. If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee
is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would
otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration.
The arbitration will be conducted by a retired judge or justice, in accordance with the California
Arbitration Act §1280 through §1294.2 of the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with
respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding.

12.5 THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED
UNDER THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR
HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE
PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR
IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER COMERICA DOCUMENTS.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Guarantor has executed this Guaranty as of May 18, 2007.

“Guaranty”). Grantor wishes to secure performance and payment of all obligations to Bank
under the Guaranty and otherwise (the “Guarantor Obligations”) with substantially all of
its assets. All terms used without definition in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to

necessary to enter into this Agreement, and Grantor’s execution, delivery and performance of this

(b) Title. The Collateral is owned by Grantor and is free of all liens, encumbrances
and other security interests other than Permitted Liens.

(a) Encumbrances. Grantor shall not grant a security interest in any of the Collateral
other than to Bank or Permitted Liens or execute any financing statements covering any of the
Collateral in favor of any person other than Bank or in connection with Permitted Liens.

(b) Use of Collateral. The Collateral will not be used for any unlawful purpose or in
any way that will void any insurance required to be carried in connection therewith. Grantor will
keep the Collateral free and clear of liens (except for Permitted Liens) and adverse claims and, as
appropriate and applicable, will keep it in good condition and repair, and will clean, shelter, and
otherwise care for the Collateral in all such ways as are considered good practice by owners of
like property.

(c) Indemnification. Grantor shall indemnify Bank against all losses, claims, demands
and liabilities of any kind caused by the Collateral except for losses caused by Bank’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

(d) Perfection of Security Interest. Grantor shall execute and deliver such documents
as Bank reasonably deems necessary to create, perfect and continue the security interest in the
Collateral contemplated hereby.

(e) Insurance of Collateral.

(i) Grantor, at its expense, shall keep the Collateral insured against loss or damage by fire,
theft, explosion, sprinklers, and all other hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as ordinarily
insured against by other owners in similar businesses conducted in the locations where Grantor’s
business is conducted on the date hereof. Grantor shall also maintain insurance relating to
Grantor’s ownership and use of the Collateral in amounts and of a type that are customary to
businesses similar to Grantor’s.

(ii) All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with such companies, and in such
amounts as reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All such policies of property insurance shall contain
a Bank’s loss payable endorsement, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an
additional loss payee thereof and all liability insurance policies shall show Bank as an additional
insured, and shall specify that the insurer must give at least twenty (20) days notice to Bank
before canceling its policy for any reason. Upon Bank’s request, Grantor shall deliver to Bank
certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of the payments of all premiums
therefor. All proceeds payable under any such policy shall, at the option of Bank, be payable to
Bank to be applied on account of the Guarantor Obligations.

(f) Inventory and Equipment.

(i) Grantor shall not store its Inventory or the Equipment with a bailee, warehouseman, or
other third party unless the third party has been notified of Bank’s security interest and Bank (a)
has received an acknowledgment from the third party that it is holding or will hold the Inventory
or Equipment for Bank’s benefit or (b) is in pledge possession of the warehouse receipt, where
negotiable, covering such Inventory or Equipment. Grantor shall not store or maintain any Equipment
or Inventory at a location other than the location set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement.

(ii) Grantor shall maintain the Collateral in good and saleable condition, repair it if
necessary and otherwise deal with the Collateral in all such ways as are considered good practice
by owners of like property, use it lawfully and only as permitted by insurance policies, and permit
Bank to inspect the Collateral at any reasonable time.

(iii) Not sell, contract to sell, lease, encumber or transfer the Collateral (other than the
disposition of such inventory Collateral in the ordinary course of Grantor’s business and other
assets which are obsolete or otherwise considered surplus) until the Obligations and the Guarantor
Obligations have been paid or performed in full, even though Bank has a security interest in the
proceeds of such Collateral.

 

2

 

(g) Accounts, Chattel Paper and General Intangibles. As to Collateral which are
Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles and Proceeds, Grantor warrants, represents and agrees:

(i) All such Collateral is genuine, enforceable in accordance with its terms and conditions
precedent (except as disclosed to and accepted by Bank in writing). Grantor will supply Bank with
duplicate invoices or other evidence of Grantor’s rights on Bank’s request.

(ii) All persons appearing to be obligated on such Collateral have authority and capacity to
contract.

(iii) All Chattel Paper is in compliance with applicable law as to form, content and manner of
preparation and execution and has been properly registered, recorded, and/or filed to protect
Grantor’s interest thereunder. Grantor will mark conspicuously all Chattel Paper with a legend, in
form and substance satisfactory to Bank, indicating that such Chattel Paper is subject to the
security interests of Bank and will, upon Bank’s request upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, deliver possession thereof to Bank.

(iv) Grantor agrees that following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Grantor shall not compromise, settle or adjust any Account or renew or extend the time of
payment thereof without Bank’s prior written consent.

(v) Until Bank exercises its rights to collect the Accounts pursuant hereto, Grantor will
collect with diligence all Grantor’s Accounts. Any collection of Accounts by Grantor, whether in
the form of cash, checks, notes, or other instruments for the payment of money (properly endorsed
or assigned where required to enable Bank to collect same), shall be in trust for Bank. If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Grantor shall keep all such collections separate
and apart from all other funds and property so as to be capable of identification as the property
of Bank and deliver said collections daily to Bank in the identical form received. The proceeds of
such collections when received by Bank may be applied by Bank directly to the payment of the
Guarantor Obligations. Any credit given by Bank upon receipt of said proceeds shall be conditional
credit subject to collection. Returned items at Bank’s option may be charged to the Grantor. All
collections of the Accounts shall be set forth on an itemized schedule, showing the name of the
account debtor, the amount of each payment and such other information as Bank may reasonably
request.

(vi) Until Bank exercises its rights to collect the Accounts pursuant hereto, Grantor may
continue its present policies with respect to returned merchandise and adjustments. However,
Grantor shall notify Bank of all cases involving repossessions, and material loss or damage of or
to merchandise represented by the Accounts.

(h) Binding Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) Grantor
shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral to the extent set
forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this
Agreement had not been executed; (b) the exercise by Bank of any of the rights granted hereunder
shall not release Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements
included in the Collateral; and (c) Bank shall not have any obligation or liability under the
contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall Bank be
obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Grantor thereunder or to take any action
to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

(i) Instruments. Grantor will deliver and pledge to Bank all Instruments that are
part of the Collateral duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or
assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank.

(j) Records. Grantor shall prepare and keep, in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied, complete and accurate records regarding the Collateral
and, if and when requested by Bank, shall prepare and deliver a complete and accurate schedule of
all the Collateral in such detail as Bank may reasonably require.

reasonable times and from time to time to inspect Grantor’s books, records and properties and to
audit and to make copies of extracts from such books and records.

(l) Fees and Costs. Grantor shall pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, incurred by Bank in the preservation, realization, enforcement or exercise of any Bank’s
rights under this Agreement.

(m) Accounts. Grantor shall maintain and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to
maintain its primary depository, operating, and investment accounts with Bank and/or Comerica
Securities, Inc.

(n) Corporate Existence. Grantor will maintain its corporate or limited liability

loss of which could have a material adverse effect on Grantor’s business. Grantor will pay all
taxes on or before the date such taxes are due, and will comply with all laws and orders applicable
to it.

(o) Negative Covenants. Except as otherwise permitted in the Loan Agreement, Grantor
will not and will cause each Subsidiary to not (i) make any investments in, or loans or advances
to, any person other than in the ordinary course of business as currently conducted, (ii) acquire
any assets other than in the ordinary course of business as currently conducted, (iii) make any
distributions or pay any dividends to any person on account of Grantor’s shares, (iv) create,
incur, assume or be or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness other than Permitted
Indebtedness, (v) move, dispose of or encumber any portion of its assets, except for dispositions
of inventory in the ordinary course of Grantor’s business, (vi) merge or consolidate with or into
any person or entity, (vii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any lien with respect to any
of its property, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income, including the sale of
any of Grantor’s accounts, (viii) keep Inventory or Equipment at a location other than the address
specified in Section 11 hereof; (ix) relocate its chief executive office or state of incorporation,
(x) or maintain or invest any of its property with a Person other than Bank or permit any of its
Subsidiaries to do so unless such Person has entered into an account control agreement with Bank in
form and substance satisfactory to Bank, or suffer or permit any Subsidiary to be a party to, or be
bound by, an agreement that restricts such Subsidiary from paying dividends or otherwise
distributing property to Borrower, or (xi) permit the inclusion in any contract to which it becomes
a party of any provisions that could restrict or invalidate the creation of a security interest in
any of Grantor’s or a Subsidiary’s property.

(p) Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request
of Bank, and at the sole expense of Grantor, Grantor shall promptly and duly execute and deliver
any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Bank may
reasonably deem desirable to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and
powers herein granted, including, without limitation, (a) to secure all consents and approvals
necessary or appropriate for the grant of a security interest to Bank in any Collateral held by
Grantor or in which Grantor has any rights not heretofore assigned, (b) filing any financing or
continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the security interests granted hereby, (c)
transferring Collateral to Bank’s possession (if a security interest in such Collateral can be
perfected by possession), (d) placing the interest of Bank as lienholder on the certificate of
title (or other evidence of ownership) of any vehicle owned by Grantor or in or with respect to
which Grantor holds a beneficial interest and (e) using its best efforts to obtain waivers of liens
from landlords and mortgagees. Grantor also hereby authorizes Bank to file any such financing or
continuation statement without the signature of Grantor. If any amount payable under or in
connection with any of the Collateral is or shall become evidenced by any Instrument, such
Instrument, other than checks and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly
endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Bank and delivered to Bank promptly upon Grantor’s receipt
thereof.

4. Events of Default. The occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement, or the failure by Grantor to perform any obligations under the Guaranty, or the breach
of any representation under this Agreement, or the failure to perform any obligation under Section
3 of this Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Agreement.

 

4

 

5. Remedies on Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall have
all rights, privileges, powers and remedies provided by law, including, but not limited to,
exercise of any or all of the following remedies.

(a) Bank may declare all amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement and the Guaranty to be
immediately due and payable, and thereupon all such amounts shall be and become immediately due and
payable to the Bank.

(b) Bank may dispose of the Collateral in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Bank may use, operate, consume and sell the Collateral in its possession as appropriate
for the purpose of performing Grantor’s obligations with respect thereto to the extent necessary to
satisfy the obligations of Grantor.

(d) All payments received and amounts realized by Bank shall be promptly applied and
distributed by the Bank in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the payment of all costs and expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and
attorneys fees, incurred or made hereunder by Bank, including any such costs and expenses of
foreclosure or suit, if any, and of any sale or the exercise of any other remedy under this Section
5, and of all taxes, assessments or liens superior to the lien granted under this Agreement; and

(ii) second, to the payment to Bank of the amount then owing under the Loan Agreement.

6. Power of Attorney. Grantor hereby appoints Bank, its attorney-in-fact to prepare,
sign and file or record, for Grantor in Grantor’s name, any financing statements, applications for
registration and like papers and to take any other action deemed by Bank necessary or desirable in
order to perfect the security interest of the Bank hereunder, to dispose of any Collateral, and to
perform any obligations of Grantor hereunder, at Grantor’s expense, but without obligation to do
so.

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

8. Amendment of Loan Documents. Grantor authorizes Bank, without notice or demand and
without affecting its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, extend, or otherwise
change the terms of any Loan Document, or any part thereof; (b) take and hold security for the
payment of any Loan Document, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; and (c)
apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Bank in its sole discretion
may determine.

9. Grantor Waivers. Grantor waives any right to require Bank to (a) proceed against
Borrower, any other guarantor or any other person; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held
from Borrower; (c) marshal any assets of Borrower; or (d) pursue any other remedy in Bank’s power
whatsoever. Bank may, at its election, exercise or decline or fail to exercise any right or remedy
it may have against Borrower or any security held by Bank, including without limitation the right
to foreclose upon any such security by judicial or nonjudicial sale, without affecting or impairing
in any way the liability of Grantor hereunder. Grantor waives any defense arising by reason of any
disability or other defense of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of
the liability of Borrower. Grantor waives any setoff, defense or counterclaim that Borrower may
have against Bank. Grantor waives any defense arising

 

5

 

out of the absence, impairment or loss of
any right of reimbursement or subrogation or any other rights against Borrower. Until all obligations under the Guaranty
have been satisfied, Grantor shall have no right of subrogation or reimbursement, contribution or
other rights against Borrower, and Grantor waives any right to enforce any remedy that Bank now has
or may hereafter have against Borrower. Grantor waives all rights to participate in any security
now or hereafter held by Bank. Grantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices
of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of
this Agreement and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness.
Grantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition
of Borrower and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any indebtedness
or nonperformance of any obligation of Borrower, warrants to Bank that it will keep so informed,
and agrees that absent a request for particular information by Grantor, Bank shall have no duty to
advise Grantor of information known to Bank regarding such condition or any such circumstances.
Grantor waives the benefits of California Civil Code sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2845, 2847, 2848,
2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433.

10. Borrower Insolvency. If Borrower becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or
files a petition for reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under any present
or future provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or if such a petition is filed against
Borrower, and in any such proceeding some or all of any indebtedness or obligations under the Loan
Documents are terminated or rejected or any obligation of Borrower is modified or abrogated, or if
Borrower’s obligations are otherwise avoided for insolvency, bankruptcy or any similar reason,
Grantor agrees that Grantor’s liability hereunder shall not thereby be affected or modified and
such liability shall continue in full force and effect as if no such action or proceeding had
occurred. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if
any payment must be returned by Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower,
Grantor, any other person, or otherwise, as though such payment had not been made.

11. Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by
any party relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith

may be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid) shall be personally delivered or sent by a

12. Choice of Law and Venue; Jury Trial Waiver.

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of
the State of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each of Borrower and
Bank hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts located in the
County of Santa Clara, State of California. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH
COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL
PARTIES, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED PARTIES.

13. Reference Provision.

In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to
proceed under this Judicial Reference Provision.

13.1 Mechanics.

(a) With the exception of the items specified in clause (c), below, any controversy, dispute
or claim (each, a “Claim”) between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any
other document, instrument or agreement between the undersigned parties (collectively in this
Section, the “Comerica Documents”), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure
(“CCP”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the
resolution of any Claim, including whether the Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except
as otherwise provided in the Comerica Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the
state or federal court in the county or district where the real property involved in the action, if
any, is located or in the state or federal court in the county or district where venue is otherwise
appropriate under applicable law (the “Court”).

(b) The matters that shall not be subject to a reference are the following: (i) nonjudicial
foreclosure of any security interests in real or personal property, (ii) exercise of self-help
remedies (including, without limitation, set-off), (iii) appointment of a receiver and (iv)
temporary, provisional or ancillary remedies (including, without limitation, writs of attachment,
writs of possession, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions). This reference
provision does not limit the right of any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and
remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or oppose from a court of competent
jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or opposition
to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this
reference provision as provided herein.

(c) The referee shall be a retired judge or justice selected by mutual written agreement of
the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten (10) days of a written request to do so by any
party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by the Presiding Judge of the
Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex
parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result if ex parte
relief is not granted. Pursuant to CCP § 170.6, each party shall have one peremptory challenge to
the referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative).

(d) The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings.
Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to change in the time periods specified herein
for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within
fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try all issues
of law or fact within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii)
report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for
decision.

 

7

 

(e) The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The
referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s
failure to provide
requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based upon good cause
shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery, depositions may be taken
by either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to
within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved
by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be final and binding.

13.2 Procedures. Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine
the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings,
the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that arise with respect to the
course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee,
except for trial, shall be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so
requests, a court reporter will be used at any hearing conducted before the referee, and the
referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall
have the obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to
award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the
court reporter at trial.

13.3 Application of Law. The referee shall be required to determine all issues in
accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of
evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the
reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief,
enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and rule on any motion which would be
authorized in a court proceeding, including without limitation motions for summary judgment or
summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding
which disposes of all claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP
§ 644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as
if the action had been tried by the Court and any such decision will be final, binding and
conclusive. The parties reserve the right to appeal from the final judgment or order or from any
appealable decision or order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of
fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial
or a different judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under
this provision.

13.4 Repeal. If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee
is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would
otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration.
The arbitration will be conducted by a retired judge or justice, in accordance with the California
Arbitration Act §1280 through §1294.2 of the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with
respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding.

13.5 THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED
UNDER THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR
HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE
PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR
IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER COMERICA DOCUMENTS.

14. General Provisions.

14.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that
neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Grantor without Bank’s prior
written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Bank’s sole discretion. Bank shall
have the right without the consent of or notice to Grantor to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant
participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits
hereunder.

 

8

 

14.2 Indemnification. Grantor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its
officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities
claimed or asserted by
any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (b)
all losses or Bank Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Bank as a result of or in any
way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Grantor whether
under this Agreement, or otherwise (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses), except for losses caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

14.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations
set forth in this Agreement.

14.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable
from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal
enforceability of any specific provision.

14.5 Amendments in Writing, Integration. This Agreement cannot be amended or
terminated orally. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and
negotiations between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, if
any, are merged into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

14.6 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, shall be
deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the
same Agreement.

14.7 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations remain outstanding, any
Guarantor Obligations remain outstanding, or Bank has any obligation to make Credit Extensions to
Borrower. The obligations of Grantor to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages,
losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 14.2 shall survive until all applicable statute
of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Bank have run.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on the date set forth above.
