terms hereof.

                        (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Bank agrees to make Revolving loans (each a "Revolving Loan") to
Borrower in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the Committed
Revolving Line, minus the amount outstanding under the Cash Management Services
Sublimit, minus the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn
but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), and minus the Foreign Exchange Reserve.

will notify Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 12:00 noon
Pacific Time, on the Business Day that such Revolving Loan is to be made. Each

under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible
Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in
Bank's discretion such Loans are necessary to meet Obligations which have become
due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any telephonic notice
given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a
designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any
damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit

monthly on the first day of each month through the Revolving Maturity Date.

                        (d) The Revolving Commitment shall terminate on the
Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Revolving Loans and accrued interest
thereon shall be immediately due and payable.

                  2.1.2 Cash Management Services Sublimit.

                        (a) Subject to availability under the Committed
Revolving Line, Borrower may use up to $4,000,000 for Bank's Cash Management
Services, which may include merchant services, business credit card, automated

Agreement, Bank agrees to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit for the
account of Borrower in an aggregate outstanding face amount not to exceed the
Revolving Commitment minus the Cash Management Sublimit, minus the amount of all
outstanding Revolving Loans and the Foreign Exchange Reserve, provided that the
face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed
Letters of Credit) shall not in any case exceed $4,000,000.00. Each Letter of
Credit shall have an expiry date no later than 180 days after the Revolving
Maturity Date provided that Borrower's Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation
shall be secured by cash on terms acceptable to Bank at any time after the
Revolving Maturity Date if the term of this Agreement is not extended by Bank.
All Letters of Credit shall be, in form and substance, acceptable to Bank in its
sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank's form
of standard Application and Letter of Credit Agreement.

                        (b) The obligation of Borrower to immediately reimburse

this Agreement and such Letters of Credit, under all circumstances whatsoever.
Borrower shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Bank harmless from any loss,
cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees, arising out of or in connection with any Letters of Credit.

                        (c) Borrower may request that Bank issue a Letter of
Credit payable in a currency other than United States Dollars. If a demand for
payment is made under any such Letter of Credit, Bank shall treat such demand as
a Revolving Loan to Borrower of the equivalent of the amount thereof (plus cable
charges) in United States currency at the then
<PAGE>
prevailing rate of exchange in San Francisco, California, for sales of that
other currency for cable transfer to the country of which it is the currency.

                        (d) Upon the issuance of any letter of credit payable in
a currency other than United States Dollars, Bank shall create a reserve under
the Revolving Commitment for letters of credit against fluctuations in currency
exchange rates, in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the face amount of
such letter of credit. The amount of such reserve may be amended by Bank from
time to time to account for fluctuations in the exchange rate. The availability
of funds under the Revolving Commitment shall be reduced by the amount of such
reserve for so long as such letter of credit remains outstanding, plus the face
amount of such letter of credit.

                  2.1.4 Foreign Exchange Contract; Foreign Exchange Settlements.

                        (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower may
enter into foreign exchange contracts (the "Exchange Contracts") not to exceed
an aggregate amount of $4,000,000.00 (the "Contract Limit"), pursuant to which
Bank shall sell to or purchase from Borrower foreign currency on a spot or
future basis. Borrower shall not request any Exchange Contracts at any time it
is out of compliance with any of the provisions of this Agreement. All Exchange
Contracts must provide for delivery of settlement on or before the Revolving
Maturity Date. The amount available under the Revolving Commitment at any time
shall be reduced by the following amounts (the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") on
any given day (the "Determination Date"): (i) on all outstanding Exchange
Contracts on which delivery is to be effected or settlement allowed more than
two business days after the Determination Date, 10% of the gross amount of the
Exchange Contracts; plus (ii) on all outstanding Exchange Contracts on which
delivery is to be effected or settlement allowed within two business days after
the Determination Date, 100% of the gross amount of the Exchange Contracts.

                        (b) Bank may, in its discretion, terminate the Exchange
Contracts at any time (a) that an Event of Default occurs or (b) that there is
no sufficient availability under the Revolving Commitment and Borrower does not
have available funds in its bank account to satisfy the Foreign Exchange
Reserve. If Bank terminates the Exchange Contracts, and without limitation of
any applicable indemnities, Borrower agrees to reimburse Bank for any and all
fees, costs and expenses relating thereto or arising in connection therewith.

                        (c) Borrower shall not permit the total gross amount of
all Exchange Contracts on which delivery is to be effected and settlement
allowed in any two business day period to be more than $4,000,000.00 (the
"Settlement Limit") nor shall Borrower permit the total gross amount of all
Exchange Contracts to which Borrower is a party, outstanding at any one time, to
exceed the Contract Limit. Notwithstanding the above, however, the amount which
may be settled in any two (2) business day period may be increased above the
Settlement Limit up to, but in no event to exceed, the amount of the Contract
Limit under either of the following circumstances:

                           (i) if there is sufficient availability under the
Revolving Commitment in the amount of the Foreign Exchange Reserve as of each
Determination Date,
<PAGE>
provided that Bank in advance shall reserve the full amount of the Foreign
Exchange Reserve against the Revolving Commitment; or

                           (ii) if there is insufficient availability under the
Revolving Commitment, as to settlements within any two (2) business day period,
provided that Bank, in its sole discretion, may: (A) verify good funds overseas
prior to crediting Borrower's deposit account with Bank (in the case of
Borrower's sale of foreign currency); or (B) debit Borrower's deposit account
with Bank prior to delivering foreign currency overseas (in the case of
Borrower's purchase of foreign currency).

                        (d) In the case of Borrower's purchase of foreign
currency, Borrower in advance shall instruct Bank upon settlement either to
treat the settlement amount as an advance under the Revolving Commitment, or to
debit Borrower's account for the amount settled.

                        (e) Borrower shall execute all standard form
applications and agreements of Bank in connection with the Exchange Contracts
and, without limiting any of the terms of such applications and agreements,
Borrower will pay all standard fees and charges of Bank in connection with the
Exchange Contracts.

                        (f) Without limiting any of the other terms of this
Agreement or any such standard form applications and agreement of Bank, Borrower
agrees to indemnify Bank and hold it harmless, from and against any and all
claims, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees of counsel of Bank's choice), of
every nature and description which it may sustain or incur, based upon, arising

Agreement, at any time from the date hereof through June 15, 2003, (the
"Equipment Availability End Date"), Bank agrees to make advances (each an
"Equipment Loan", and collectively "Equipment Loans") to Borrower in an
aggregate amount not to exceed the Equipment Commitment. The Equipment Loans may
only be used to finance Eligible Equipment purchased on or after 180 days before
the date of each Equipment Loan (except that the initial Equipment Loan which
may include Eligible Equipment purchased after 90 days but before 180 days) and
may not exceed 100% of the equipment invoice excluding taxes, shipping, warranty
charges, freight discounts and installation expense. Transferable software
licenses, leasehold improvements and other soft costs (including taxes,
shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expense) may
constitute up to 40% of the aggregate Equipment Loans. The number of Equipment
Advances is limited to 6.

                        (b) When Borrower desires to obtain an Equipment Loan,
Borrower shall notify Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) by facsimile
transmission to be received no later than 12:00 noon Pacific Time one Business
Day before the day on which the Equipment Loan is to be made. Such notice shall
be substantially in the form of Exhibit B. The

notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer or its designee and include a
copy of the invoice for the Equipment to be financed.

                        (c) Interest Rate. Except as set forth in Section

interest, on the average daily balance thereof, at a floating per annum rate
equal to the Equipment Loan Rate determined by Bank for each Equipment Loan in
accordance with the definition of Equipment Loan Rate. Accrued interest on each
Equipment Loan shall be payable monthly on each Payment Date and on the date the
final installment of principal on the Equipment Loans is due.

following the Funding Date (or commencing on the Funding Date if the Funding
Date is the first Business Day of the month) with respect to such Equipment Loan
and continuing thereafter during the Repayment Period on the first Business Day
of each calendar month (each a "Payment Date"). All unpaid principal and accrued
interest is due and payable in full on the last Payment Date with respect to
such Equipment Advance. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are
considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. An
Equipment Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Section 2.1.5 (e).

                        (e) Equipment Loans may be prepaid in whole or in part,
without premium or penalty provided that: (i) no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, (ii) Borrower provides Bank with at least five (5) days prior
written notice, and (iii) each such prepayment is in a minimum amount of
$10,000. If the Equipment Loans are accelerated following the occurrence and
continuation of an Event of Default or otherwise, then Borrower will immediately
pay to Bank (i) all unpaid Scheduled Equipment Payments (including principal and
interest) with respect to each Equipment Loan, (ii) all remaining Scheduled
Equipment Payments (including principal and unpaid interest) (iii) all accrued
unpaid interest, including the default rate of interest, to the date of the

immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the amount of such excess.

            2.3 Default Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

                  (a) Default Rate. All Obligations shall bear interest, from
and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five
percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the
occurrence of the Event of Default.

                  (b) Payments. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to debit any
accounts with Bank, including, without limitation, Account Number 3300104898 for
payments of principal and interest due on the Obligations and any other amounts
owing by Borrower to Bank. Bank will notify Borrower of all debits which Bank
has made against Borrower's accounts. Any such debits against Borrower's
accounts in no way shall be deemed a set-off. Any interest not paid when due
shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest
shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder.

                  (c) Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from
time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be
increased or decreased effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the day the Prime Rate is

chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year for the actual number of days elapsed.

            2.4 Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of
payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of
funds, check, or other item of payment, whether directed to
<PAGE>
Borrower's deposit account with Bank or to the Obligations or otherwise, shall
be immediately applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be
considered a payment in respect of the Obligations unless such payment is of
immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item
of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank
after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as
of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever
any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by
reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall
instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the
case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

            2.5 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:

                  (a) Facility Fee. A Facility Fee equal to $20,000, which fee
shall be due on the Closing Date and shall be fully earned and non-refundable;

                  (b) Financial Examination and Appraisal Fees. Bank's customary
fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for Bank's audits of Borrower's
Accounts, and for each appraisal of Collateral and financial analysis and
examination of Borrower performed from time to time by Bank or its agents;

                  (c) Bank Expenses. Upon demand from Bank, including, without
limitation, upon the date hereof, all Bank Expenses incurred through the date
hereof, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, and, after the date
hereof, all Bank Expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, as
and when they become due.

            2.6 Additional Costs. In case of any change in any law, regulation,
treaty or official directive or the interpretation or application thereof by any
court or any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof or
the compliance with any guideline or request of any central bank or other
governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) in each case
after the date of this Agreement:

                  (a) subjects Bank to any tax with respect to payments of
principal or interest or any other amounts payable hereunder by Borrower or
otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (except for taxes
on the overall net income of Bank imposed by the United States of America or any
political subdivision thereof);

                  (b) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any deposit
insurance, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held
by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, Bank; or

                  (c) imposes upon Bank any other condition with respect to its
performance under this Agreement,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank, reduce
the income receivable by Bank or impose any expense upon Bank with respect to
any loans, Bank shall notify Borrower thereof. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank
the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income or additional expense
as and when such cost, reduction or expense is
<PAGE>
incurred or determined, upon presentation by Bank of a statement of the amount
and setting forth Bank's calculation thereof, all in reasonable detail, which
statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error.

            2.7 Term. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement shall
become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to Section 12.7, shall
continue in full force and effect until the Loans and all interest thereon have
been fully and finally paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the
right to terminate its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement immediately
and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default.

            4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants and pledges to Bank
a continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter acquired
or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt payment of any and all
Obligations and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its
covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in the
Schedule, such security interest constitutes a valid, first priority security
interest in the presently existing Collateral, and will, subject to Permitted
Liens, constitute a valid, first priority security interest in Collateral
acquired after the date hereof. Borrower acknowledges that Bank may, following
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, place a "hold"
on any Deposit Account pledged as Collateral to secure the Obligations.
Notwithstanding termination of this Agreement, Bank's Lien on the Collateral
shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding.

            4.2 Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Borrower shall
from time to time execute and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all
Negotiable Collateral, all financing statements and other documents that Bank
may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue
perfected Bank's security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully
consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.

            4.3 Right to Inspect. Bank (through any of its officers, employees,
or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time
during Borrower's usual business hours, to inspect Borrower's Books and to make

verify Borrower's financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other
matter relating to, the Collateral.

            5.2 Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and
performance of the Loan Documents are within Borrower's powers, have been duly
authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any
provision contained in Borrower's Articles/Certificate of Incorporation or
Bylaws, nor will they constitute an event of default under any material
agreement to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower is bound except to
the extent that certain intellectual property agreements prohibit the assignment
of the rights thereunder to a third party without Borrower's or other party's
consent and the Loan Documents constitute an assignment Borrower is not in
default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound,
which default would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
<PAGE>
            5.3 No Prior Encumbrances. Borrower has good and indefeasible title
to the Collateral, free and clear of Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

            5.4 Merchantable Inventory. All Inventory is in all material

claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property Collateral
violates the rights of any third party. Except for and upon the filing with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office with respect to the Patents and
Trademarks and the Register of Copyrights with respect to the Copyrights and

all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings
with, and given all notices to, all governmental authorities that are necessary
for the continued operation of Borrower's business as currently conducted except

such declaration or filing or to give any such notice would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

maintained, its and each of its Subsidiaries' corporate existence and good

have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall maintain, and shall cause each of
its Subsidiaries to maintain, to the extent consistent with prudent management

Subsidiary to meet, the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to
any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. Borrower shall comply, and shall

same basis and in accordance with the usual customary practices of Borrower, as
they exist at the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Borrower
shall promptly notify Bank of all returns and recoveries and of all disputes and
claims, where the return, recovery, dispute or claim involves more than
$100,000.00.

            6.5 Taxes. Borrower shall make, and shall cause each Subsidiary to
make, due and timely payment or deposit of all material federal, state, and
local taxes, assessments, or contributions required of it by law, and will

the payment or deposit thereof; and Borrower will make, and will cause each
Subsidiary to make, timely payment or deposit of all material tax payments and
withholding taxes required of it by applicable laws, including, but not limited
to, those laws concerning F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A., state disability, and local,
state, and federal income taxes, and will, upon request, furnish Bank with proof
satisfactory to Bank indicating that Borrower or a Subsidiary has made such
payments or deposits; provided that Borrower or a Subsidiary need not make any
payment if the amount or validity of such payment is (I) contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings , (ii) is reserved against (to the extent required by
GAAP) by Borrower and (iii) no lien other than a Permitted Lien results.

            6.6 Insurance.

                  (a) Borrower, 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 Borrower's
business is conducted on the date hereof. Borrower shall also maintain insurance
relating to Borrower's ownership and use of the Collateral in amounts and of a
type that are customary to businesses similar to Borrower's.

                  (b) All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with
such companies, and in such amounts as are reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All
such policies of property insurance shall contain a lender's loss payable
endorsement, in a form satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an additional loss
payee thereof and all liability insurance policies shall show the Bank as an
additional insured, and shall specify that the insurer must give at least 30
days notice to Bank before canceling its policy for any reason. At Bank's
request, Borrower 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 Obligations; provided that so long as no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option of
applying the proceeds of any casualty policy to the replacement or repair of
destroyed or damaged property.
<PAGE>
            6.7 Principal Depository. Borrower will maintain its primary
operating accounts with Bank. In addition to its primary operating accounts,
Borrower agrees to maintain, at or through Bank, deposits in a minimum amount of

                  (b) Maximum Net Loss (Quarterly). Borrower will not incur a
maximum quarterly "Loss", as defined below, in excess of $2,000,000 in any one
fiscal quarter; provided, further that Borrower shall not incur a maximum
quarterly Loss in excess of $3,700,000 in the aggregate for any 2 consecutive

material infringements detected and (iii) not allow any Trademarks, Patents,
Copyrights, or Mask Works to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public
without the written consent of Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
unless Bank determines that reasonable business practices suggest that
abandonment is appropriate.

                  (c) Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
take, at Borrower's sole expense, any actions that Borrower is required under
this section to take but which Borrower fails to take, after 15 days' notice to
Borrower. Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify Bank for all reasonable costs
and reasonable expenses incurred in the reasonable exercise of its rights under
this section.

            6.10 Control Agreements. With respect to deposit accounts or
investment accounts maintained at financial institutions other than Bank, within
30 days of the opening of any such deposit account or investment account,
Borrower will execute and deliver to Bank, control agreements in form
satisfactory to Bank in order for Bank to perfect its security interest in
Borrower's deposit accounts or investment accounts.
<PAGE>
            6.11 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time Borrower
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 Agreement.

or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower
except for transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower's business,
upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower than would
be obtained in an arm's length transaction with a nonaffiliated Person.

            7.9 Intellectual Property Agreements. Borrower shall not permit the
inclusion in any material contract to which it becomes a party of any provisions
that could or might in any way prevent the creation of a security interest in

Default" by Borrower under this Agreement:

            8.1 Payment Default. If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations

failed to cure such default within ten days after the occurrence thereof;
provided that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten day
period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such 10 day
period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then
Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not in any case
exceed 30 days) to attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time
period the failure to have cured such default shall not be deemed an Event of
Default (provided that no Loans will be required to be made during such cure
period);

            8.3 Material Adverse Effect. If there occurs any event which has a
Material Adverse Effect;

            8.4 Attachment. If any material portion of Borrower's assets is

shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or event is stayed or an
adequate bond has been posted pending a good faith contest by Borrower (provided
that no Credit Extensions will be required to be made during such cure period);

            8.5 Insolvency. If Borrower becomes insolvent, or if an Insolvency

which Borrower is a party with a third party or parties resulting in a right by
such third party or parties, whether or not exercised, to accelerate the
maturity of any Indebtedness in an amount in excess of $100,000.00 or that could
have a Material Adverse Effect;

induce Bank to enter into this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

      9. BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

            9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of
its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of
which are authorized by Borrower:

                  (a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this
Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in
Section 8.5 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any
action by Bank);

                  (b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the
benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between
Borrower and Bank;

                  (c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account
debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably
considers advisable;

                  (d) Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make such
payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect
its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as
Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any
part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or lien which in Bank's determination appears to be prior or superior to
its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
With respect to any of Borrower's premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a
license to enter such premises and to occupy the same, without charge in order
to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity,
or otherwise;

                  (e) Without notice to Borrower set off and apply to the
Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or

Borrower held by Bank;

                  (f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free
license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1,
to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights,
<PAGE>
mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks,
service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, 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 9.1, Borrower's rights under all licenses and all
franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's benefit;

                  (g) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or
both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in
such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Bank
determines is commercially reasonable, and apply the proceeds thereof to the
Obligations in whatever manner or order it deems appropriate;

                  (h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale, or at
any private sale as permitted by law;

                  (i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower; and

                  (j) Bank shall have a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to
use the Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent reasonably necessary to
permit Bank to exercise its rights and remedies upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default.

            9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints
Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as Borrower's true
and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify
account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse
Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may
come into Bank's possession; (c) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of
lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and
assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account
debtors; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with
respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; and (e) settle and adjust disputes
and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts
and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; (f) to modify, in its
sole discretion, any intellectual property security agreement entered into
between Borrower and Bank without first obtaining Borrower's approval of or
signature to such modification by amending Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C
thereof, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in
any Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks, Mask Works acquired by Borrower after the
execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in
any Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks, or Mask Works in which Borrower no longer
has or claims any right, title or interest; (g) to file, in its sole discretion,
one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto,
relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Borrower where
permitted by law; and (h) to transfer the Intellectual Property Collateral into
the name of Bank or a third party to the extent permitted under the UCC provided
Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of
the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default
has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower's attorney in fact, and each
and every one of Bank's rights and powers, being coupled with an
<PAGE>
interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and
performed and Bank's obligation to provide Loans hereunder is terminated.

            9.3 Accounts Collection. Effective only upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing
funds to Borrower of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the
amount of such Account. Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for
Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank's trustee, and if requested or
required by Bank, immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original
form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

            9.4 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish
any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required
under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following:
(a) upon reasonable notice to Borrower, make payment of the same or any part
thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Commitment as Bank deems
necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c)
obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.6 of
this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems
prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank
Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the
then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the
Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank
to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default under this Agreement.

            9.5 Bank's Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with
reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage
thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any
diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of
loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

            9.6 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 expressly set forth herein as
provided under 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 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.

            9.7 Demand; Protest. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of
protest, 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 at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

BORROWER:

           Authorized Officer
<PAGE>
                         AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE INSURANCE

TO:         SILICON VALLEY BANK
FROM:       IMANAGE, INC. ("Borrower")

      INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS. Borrower understands that insurance coverage is
required in connection with the extending of a loan or the providing of other
financial accommodations to Borrower by Bank. These requirements are set forth
in the Loan Documents. The following minimum insurance coverages must be
provided on the following described collateral (the "Collateral"):

            Collateral:     All Inventory, Equipment and Fixtures.
            Type:           All risks, including fire, theft and liability.
            Amount:         Full insurable value.
            Basis:          Replacement value.
            Endorsements:   Loss payable clause to Bank with stipulation that
                            coverage will not be cancelled or diminished without
                            a minimum of 15 days prior written notice to Bank.

      INSURANCE COMPANY. Borrower may obtain insurance from any insurance
company Borrower may choose that is reasonably acceptable to Bank. Borrower
understands that credit may not be denied solely because insurance was not
purchased through Bank.

      FAILURE TO PROVIDE INSURANCE. Borrower agrees to deliver to Bank, on or
before closing, evidence of the required insurance as provided above, with an
effective date of _________________, 200_, or earlier. Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that if Borrower fails to provide any required insurance or fails to
continue such insurance in force, Bank may do so at Borrower's expense as
provided in the Loan and Security Agreement. The cost of such insurance, at the
option of Bank, shall be payable on demand or shall be added to the indebtedness
as provided in the security document. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IF BANK SO
PURCHASES ANY SUCH INSURANCE, THE INSURANCE WILL PROVIDE LIMITED PROTECTION
AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE COLLATERAL, UP TO THE BALANCE OF THE LOAN;
HOWEVER, BORROWER'S EQUITY IN THE COLLATERAL MAY NOT BE INSURED. IN ADDITION,
THE INSURANCE MAY NOT PROVIDE ANY PUBLIC LIABILITY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE
INDEMNIFICATION AND MAY NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF ANY FINANCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY LAWS.

      AUTHORIZATION. For purposes of insurance coverage on the Collateral,
Borrower authorizes Bank to provide to any person (including any insurance agent
or company) all information Bank deems appropriate, whether regarding the
Collateral, the loan or other financial accommodations, or both.

      BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT TO
PROVIDE INSURANCE AND AGREES TO ITS TERMS. THIS AGREEMENT IS DATED DECEMBER 16,
2002.
