Borrower promises to execute and deliver to Lender a Note in the original principal amount of each Advance.  The principal balance of each Advance shall bear interest thereon from the Advance Date, computed at the Interest Rate based on a year consisting of 360 days, with interest computed daily based on the actual number of days in each month.  Advances under the Loan will be repayable by Borrower on an interest only basis through the Interest Only Period, and thereafter the total amount Advanced under the Loan then outstanding, together with interest at the Interest Rate, shall be amortized over 27 months, and shall be paid in monthly installments of principal and interest over 24 months, it being understood that the last payment shall be in an amount
greater than the previous 23 monthly installments.  The final payment for all Advances under the Loan and all other Secured Obligations shall be the Maturity Date.  Each monthly installment under the Loan and, including the final payment, shall be due and payable on the respective dates (each, a “Payment Date”) which shall be the first day of the month following the respective Advance, and the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Final Payment Date.  If any payment for such an Advance shall be payable on a day other than a business day, then such payment shall be due and payable on the next succeeding business day.   Each Advance under the Loan shall be repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, not later than the Final Payment Date, whether or not the Advance is evidenced by a Note.  Amounts repaid on the Loan shall not be reborrowed.  All of the Advances, Loan, and other Secured Obligations arising under the Loan,
the other Loan Documents or otherwise shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured by all of the Collateral, and shall be due and payable not later than the Final Payment Date. 

          2.3.          In order to obtain an Advance, Borrower shall complete, sign and deliver an Advance Request to Lender.  Upon receipt of an Advance Request, Lender shall have the right to review whether, in Lender’s opinion, each of the conditions precedent to such Advance has been or will be satisfied as of the requested Advance Date, and if Lender determines such conditions precedent have been or will be satisfied and to fund such Advance, Lender shall deliver to Borrower for signature a Note dated as of the Advance Date to evidence such Advance.  Upon receipt by Lender of such Note duly executed and delivered by Borrower, Lender shall fund the Advance in the manner requested by the Advance Request provided that each of the conditions precedent to such Advance is satisfied as of the requested Advance Date.  All the terms, conditions,
and covenants of this Agreement shall apply to all Advances whether or not each Advance is evidenced by a Note.  Borrower agrees that Lender may rely on any notice or Advance Request given by any Person it reasonably believes to be an authorized representative of Borrower without the necessity of independent investigation.

          2.4.          Borrower may at any time on at least five (5) business days prior written notice to Lender, prepay in whole or in part the Loan by paying the relevant principal amount together with all interest, fees and expenses accrued and unpaid as of the date of such prepayment, provided, that if Borrower prepays any Advance within (i) the Interest Only Period, Borrower shall also pay Lender a prepayment additional amount equal to three percent (3%) of the principal amount being so prepaid, (ii) the period from the day immediately following the end of the Interest Only Period to the date that is one year and one day prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower shall also pay Lender a prepayment additional amount equal to two percent (2%) of the principal amount being so prepaid, and (iii) the period from the date that is one year prior to the Maturity Date to
the Maturity Date, Borrower shall also pay Lender a prepayment additional amount equal to one percent (1%) of the principal amount being so prepaid.

10

          2.5.          Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (which under the laws of the State of California shall be deemed to be the laws relating to permissible rates of interest on commercial loans) (the “Maximum Rate”).  If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that Borrower has actually paid to Lender an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if all of the Secured Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrower shall be applied as follows:  first, to
the payment of principal outstanding on the Notes; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of Lender’s accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional fees and any other Secured Obligations; and third, after all Secured Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrower.

          2.6.          In the event any interest is not paid when due hereunder, delinquent interest shall be  added to principal and shall bear interest on interest, compounded at the rate set forth in Section 2.2 or Section 2.7, as applicable.

          2.7.          In the event any payment is not paid on the scheduled Payment Date, an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the past due amount shall be payable on demand. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, all Secured Obligations, including principal, interest, compounded interest, and professional fees, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate plus five percent (5%) per annum (“Default Rate”).

SECTION 3.    SECURITY INTEREST

          3.1.          As security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment when due (whether on the Payment Dates or otherwise) of all the Secured Obligations and in order to induce Lender to make the Loan upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and Lien upon all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under each of the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired and wherever located (collectively, the “Collateral”) subject only to Permitted Liens:

                                    (a)     There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any governmental authority now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or any business, property or rights of Borrower (i) which involve any Loan Document or (ii) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and which, if adversely determined, would, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower is not in default in any manner under any provision of any indenture or other agreement, contract or instrument evidencing indebtedness, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are or may be bound and for which such default would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

14

          5.10.

Subject to Section 7.11, Borrower has duly paid or fully reserved for all taxes or installments thereof (including any interest or penalties) as and when due, which have or may become due pursuant to such returns. Borrower has paid or fully reserved for any tax assessment received by Borrower for the three (3) years preceding the Closing Date, if any (including any taxes being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings).

          5.12.          Borrower’s present name, former names (if any), locations, place of formation, tax identification number, organizational identification number and other information are correctly set forth in Exhibit C.

          5.13.          Borrower is the sole owner of or has all necessary rights to use the Intellectual Property, except for licenses granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course of business.  To Borrower’s knowledge, each of the Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property  has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made to Borrower that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. Exhibit D is a true, correct and complete list of each of Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights, and material agreements under which Borrower licenses Intellectual Property (other than shrink-wrap software licenses and other
licenses which if terminated could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect), together with application or registration numbers, as applicable, owned by Borrower or any Subsidiary.  Borrower is not in material breach of, nor has Borrower failed to perform in any material respect under, any of the foregoing contracts, licenses or agreements and, to Borrower’s knowledge, no third party to any such contract, license or agreement is in breach thereof or has failed to perform thereunder.

          5.14.          Borrower’s latest Form 10-Q or 10-K, as applicable, sets forth a general description of the types of Borrower Products.

          5.15.          Borrower has not knowingly misrepresented, or knowingly failed to disclose, any facts or circumstances in any application for any Intellectual Property that would constitute fraud or a misrepresentation with respect to such application or that would otherwise affect the validity or enforceability of any Intellectual Property in any material respect.

          5.16.          Borrower has not received any written notice or claim, or, to the knowledge of Borrower, oral notice or claim, challenging or questioning Borrower’s ownership in any Intellectual Property (or written notice of any claim challenging or questioning the ownership in any licensed Intellectual Property of the owner thereof) or written notice asserting that any third party has any claim of legal or beneficial ownership with respect thereto nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither Borrower’s use of its Intellectual Property nor the sale of Borrower Products infringes the intellectual property or other rights of others.

15

          5.17.          All Intellectual Property that is material to the business or operations of Borrower was created solely by either: (i) employees of Borrower acting within the scope of their employment (all of whom have assigned all rights, title and interest in and to such Intellectual Property to Borrower); or (ii) by third parties who have assigned, or agreed to assign, or who have licensed, or agreed to license, all right, title and interest in and to such Intellectual Property to Borrower.

          5.18.          Borrower’s Intellectual Property constitutes all rights used in or necessary in the operation or conduct of Borrower’s business as currently conducted and proposed to be conducted by Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower has the right to freely transfer, license or assign Intellectual Property owned by the Borrower without condition, restriction or payment of any kind to any third party, and Borrower has the right to use, pursuant to valid licenses, all software development tools, library functions, compilers and all other third-party software and other items that are used in and material to the operation or conduct of Borrower’s business as currently conducted and proposed to be conducted by Borrower.  Borrower is entitled to use freely and exploit any and all rights to improvements made
by Borrower with respect to such owned Intellectual Property.

          5.19.          Borrower has not received any written notice or claim, or, to the knowledge of Borrower, oral notice or claim, from any third party claiming that the operation of the business of Borrower as currently conducted or proposed to be conducted, or that any Borrower Product infringes, misappropriates, violates, dilutes or constitutes the unauthorized use of any valid or enforceable right of any third party, including any Intellectual Property of any third party, nor, to the knowledge of Borrower, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim of infringement that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or any claim that Borrower is not the owner of Intellectual Property which Borrower has purported to own free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens.  Borrower has no knowledge that any third party is
infringing, misappropriating, diluting or violating any Intellectual Property and no such claims have been brought against any third party by Borrower.

          5.20.          No Intellectual Property or Borrower Product has been or is subject to any actual or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened litigation, proceeding (including any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any corresponding foreign office or agency other than prosecution of applications in the ordinary course of business) or outstanding decree, order, judgment, settlement agreement or stipulation that restricts in any material manner Borrower’s use, transfer or licensing thereof or that may affect in any material respect the validity, use or enforceability thereof and that would, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. There is no decree, order, judgment, agreement, stipulation, arbitral award or other provision which obligates Borrower to grant licenses or ownership interest in any
future Intellectual Property related to the operation or conduct of the business of Borrower.  There is no outstanding or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened, dispute or disagreement of which Borrower is aware with respect to any contract, license or agreement between Borrower and any third party related to any material aspect of the Intellectual Property.

          5.21.          Borrower has taken all steps that are reasonably required to protect: (i) Borrower’s rights in all Intellectual Property that is material to the business or operations of the Borrower; and (ii) all similar rights in the intellectual property of others as to which Borrower has an obligation or duty to protect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower has, and takes all reasonable measures to enforce, a policy requiring each employee, consultant and independent contractor to execute written proprietary information, confidentiality and assignment of invention and copyright agreements, that: (A) assign to Borrower all right, title and interest in and to any Intellectual Property relating to Borrower’s business that are developed by the employee, consultant or contractor, as applicable, in the course of his, her or
its activities for Borrower or are developed during working hours or using the resources of Borrower; (B) contain provisions designed to prevent unauthorized disclosure of Borrower’s confidential information; and (C) otherwise reasonably protect Borrower’s Intellectual Property. All current and former employees, consultants and independent contractors have executed and delivered such agreements to Borrower and, to the knowledge of Borrower, no party thereto has breached or violated in any material respect the terms thereof or has attempted or threatened to challenge the enforceability, scope or applicability of any such agreement to its signatories. There has been no disclosure by Borrower of any confidential information that is material to the business or operations of the Borrower without: (x) designating such information as confidential; and (y) taking all commercially reasonable steps required to ensure that such confidential information is subject to the confidentiality undertakings set
forth in the applicable non-disclosure agreement.

16

          5.22.          Exhibit F is a true, correct and complete list of (a) all banks and other financial institutions at which Borrower or any Subsidiary maintains Deposit Accounts and (b) all institutions at which Borrower or any Subsidiary maintains an account holding Investment Property, and such exhibit correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of each bank or other institution, the name in which the account is held, a description of the purpose of the account, and the complete account number therefor.

          5.23.          Borrower has no outstanding loans to any employee, officer or director of the Borrower other than reasonable travel or expense advances in the ordinary course of business or that are in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act nor has Borrower guaranteed the payment of any loan made to an employee, officer or director of the Borrower by a third party.

          5.24.          The Borrower’s capitalization is set forth on Schedule 5.24 annexed hereto.  Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments.

SECTION 6.    INSURANCE; INDEMNIFICATION

          6.1.          So long as there are any Secured Obligations outstanding, Borrower shall cause to be carried and maintained commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence form, against risks customarily insured against in Borrower’s line of business.  Such risks shall include the risks of bodily injury, including death, property damage, personal injury, advertising injury, and contractual liability per the terms of the indemnification agreement found in Section 6.4.  Borrower must maintain a minimum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) of commercial general liability insurance for each occurrence.  So long as there are any Secured Obligations outstanding, Borrower shall also cause to be carried and maintained insurance upon the Collateral, insuring against risks of physical loss or damage howsoever caused, including the
perils of fire and windstorm and water damage,  in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Collateral.  Borrower shall also carry and maintain a fidelity insurance policy in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

          6.2.          Borrower shall deliver to Lender certificates of insurance, which evidence Borrower’s compliance with its insurance obligations in Section 6.1 and the obligations contained in this Section 6.2.  Borrower’s insurance certificate shall state Lender is an additional insured for commercial general liability, an additional insured and a loss payee for all risk property damage insurance, a loss payee for fidelity insurance, and a loss payee and additional insured for any future insurance that Borrower may acquire.  Attached to the certificates of insurance will be additional insured endorsements for liability and lender’s loss payable endorsements for all risk property damage insurance and fidelity.

          6.3.          The certificates of insurance will state that the coverage evidenced is primary and non-contributory to any insurance or self-insurance of Lender, and will further state that a waiver of subrogation in favor of Lender has been agreed to.  All certificates of insurance will provide for a minimum of thirty (30) days advance written notice to Lender of cancellation or any other change adverse to Lender’s interests.  Any failure of Lender to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Lender’s rights, all of which are reserved.

          7.2.          Borrower must maintain a Current Ratio of (i) at least .85 for the quarter ending September 30, 2006, (ii) at least .90 for the quarter ending December 31, 2006, and (iii) at least 1.0 for each subsequent calendar quarter thereafter.

          7.3.          Borrower shall permit any representative Lender authorizes, including its attorneys and accountants, to inspect, examine and make copies and abstracts of the books of account and records of Borrower at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice during normal business hours.  In addition, any such representative shall have the right to meet with management and officers of Borrower to discuss such books of account and records.  In addition, Lender shall be entitled at reasonable times and intervals to consult with and advise the management and officers of Borrower concerning significant business issues affecting Borrower.  Such consultations shall not unreasonably interfere with Borrower’s business operations.  The parties intend that the rights granted Lender shall constitute “management rights” within the
meaning of 29 C.F.R Section 2510.3-101(d)(3)(ii), but that any advice, recommendations or participation by Lender with respect to any business issues shall not be deemed to give Lender, nor be deemed an exercise by Lender of, control over Borrower’s management or policies.

          7.4.          Borrower shall from time to time execute, deliver and file, alone or with Lender, any financing statements, security agreements, collateral assignments, notices, control agreements, or other documents to perfect or give the highest priority to Lender’s Lien on the Collateral.  Borrower shall from time to time procure any instruments or documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender, and take all further action that may be necessary, or that Lender may reasonably request, to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of the Loan Documents or the Warrant Agreement or to confirm, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens granted hereby and thereby.  In addition, and for such purposes only, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to execute and deliver on behalf of Borrower and to file such financing statements, collateral
assignments, notices, control agreements, security agreements and other documents without the signature of Borrower either in Lender’s name or in the name of Lender as agent and attorney-in-fact for Borrower.

          7.5.          Borrower shall protect and defend Borrower’s title to the Collateral and Lender’s Lien thereon against all Persons claiming any interest adverse to Borrower or Lender.  Borrower shall at all times keep the Collateral and all other property and assets used in Borrower’s business or in which Borrower now or hereafter holds any interest free and clear from any legal process or Liens whatsoever (except for Permitted Liens), and shall give Lender immediate written notice of any legal process affecting the Collateral, such other property and assets, or any Liens thereon.

19

          7.6.          Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower shall not (a) enter into any loan agreement or otherwise borrow money which involves the grant of a security interest other than a Permitted Lien in any of the Borrower’s assets (including but not limited to hereafter acquired assets and/or Intellectual Property) except to the extent that such loan or borrowing is subject to and subordinate to Lender’s Lien on the Collateral and such lender enters into a subordination agreement, for the benefit of Lender, in a form acceptable to Lender; (b) grant any material extension of the time of payment of any of the Receivables or General Intangibles, (c) to any material extent, compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, (d) release, wholly or partly, any Person liable for the payment thereof other than
in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or pursuant to applicable court order or legal process, (e) allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon other than trade discounts granted by Borrower in the ordinary course of business of Borrower, or (f) create, incur, assume, guarantee or be or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness, or permit any Subsidiary so to do, other than Permitted Indebtedness, or prepay any Indebtedness or take any actions which impose on Borrower an obligation to prepay any Indebtedness, except Indebtedness to Lender.

          7.7.          Borrower shall maintain and protect its properties, assets and facilities, including its Equipment and Fixtures, in good order and working repair and condition (taking into consideration ordinary wear and tear and obsolescence) and from time to time make or cause to be made all necessary and proper repairs, renewals and replacements thereto and shall competently manage and care for its property in accordance with prudent industry practices.

          7.8.          Borrower shall not enter into or be a party to any Merger without the prior written consent of Lender.  So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender agrees not to unreasonably withhold its consent to any Merger to the extent the same does not materially and adversely affect Lender’s interests under the Loan Documents or increase the risk of non-payment or late payment of the Secured Obligations.  Lender may, at its sole option, require, as a condition of any such consent, that (a) the Note(s) be paid off in their entirety prior to the Merger being consummated, or, if the Notes(s) are not to be so paid off; (b) the assets acquired in such Merger (i) be provided as Collateral (including assets of any subsidiary of Borrower) and (ii) be free and clear of Liens (other than Permitted Liens),
(c) any party to the Merger, or parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower guarantee the Secured Obligations, or (d) documents be delivered, including certificates, lien search results, financing statements and opinions, or other actions be taken so as to give Lender reasonable confidence in the ability of Borrower to satisfy the Secured Obligations on a timely basis.

          7.9.          Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, agrees that, without the prior written consent of Lender, it shall not, nor shall it allow any Subsidiary to, (a) repurchase or redeem any class of stock or other equity interest other than pursuant to employee, director or consultant repurchase plans or other similar agreements, provided, however, in each case the repurchase or redemption price does not exceed the original consideration paid for such stock or equity interest, or (b) other than set forth in subsection 7.9(a) above, declare or pay any cash dividend or make a cash distribution on any class of stock or other equity interest, or (c) loan money to any employee, officer or director other than reasonable travel or expense advances in the ordinary course of business or in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or guarantee the
payment of any such loan granted by a third party, or (d) waive, release or forgive any indebtedness owed by any employee, officer or director other than to the extent lawfully permitted and as consideration for and in connection with employment termination arrangements, or (e) voluntarily or involuntarily transfer, sell, lease, license, lend or in any other manner convey any equitable, beneficial or legal interest in any material portion of their assets (except (i) Inventory sold in the normal course of business, (ii) licenses and similar arrangements for the use of property in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) worn-out or obsolete Equipment (collectively (i)-(iii), “Permitted Transfers”)).  No Subsidiary shall issue any class of stock or other equity interest, and Borrower shall not create any new Subsidiary without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld if concurrent with the creation of any new Subsidiary such Subsidiary also
executes a Joinder Agreement.

20

          7.10.          Upon the request of Lender, Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, agrees that during normal business hours, Borrower shall make the Inventory, Equipment, other Collateral, and books and records concerning Collateral (including software used in Borrower or Subsidiary’s business) available to Lender for inspection at the place where it is normally located and shall make all logs and maintenance records pertaining to the Inventory and Equipment and computer generated lists of the Equipment and Inventory available to Lender for inspection.  Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, shall take all action necessary to maintain such books, records, logs, and maintenance records in a correct and complete fashion.

          7.11.          Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall pay when due all taxes, fees or other charges of any nature whatsoever (together with any related interest or penalties) now or hereafter imposed or assessed against Borrower, Lender or the Collateral or upon Borrower’s ownership, possession, use, operation or disposition thereof or upon Borrower’s rents, receipts or earnings arising therefrom.  Borrower shall file on or before the due date therefor all personal property tax returns in respect of the Collateral.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may contest, in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, taxes for which Borrower maintains adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP.

          7.12.          Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall relocate its chief executive office or its principal place of business unless: (i) it has provided prior written notice to Lender; and (ii) such relocation shall be within the continental United States.  Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall relocate any item of the Collateral (other than (i) sales of Inventory in the ordinary course of business, (ii) relocations of Equipment having an aggregate value of up to $100,000 in any fiscal year or (iii) relocations of any items of Collateral to any location in the continental United States) unless (i) it has provided prior written notice to Lender; and (ii) such relocation shall be within the continental United States.

          7.13.          Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall change its corporate name, legal form or jurisdiction of formation without twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to Lender.

          7.14.          Borrower shall arrange for automatic debit and corresponding payment to Lender on each Payment Date of all periodic obligations payable to Lender under each Note or Advance. All payments to Lender shall be wired to Lender’s bank account at the following address:

Borrower and its Subsidiaries and affiliates shall comply with the Uniting And Strengthening America By Providing Appropriate Tools Required To Intercept And Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001).  Borrower covenants and agrees to deliver (from time to time) to Lender any such certification or other evidence as may be reasonably requested by Lender to permit Lender to satisfy its or any affiliate of Lender’s obligations under applicable laws and regulations relating to U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, E013224 or Prohibited Persons.

          7.15.          Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall maintain any Deposit Accounts or accounts holding Investment Property except with respect to which Lender has a perfected security interest in each such account.

          7.16.          Borrower shall repay all outstanding amounts of any principal and accrued interest on any Note and/Advance (a) immediately upon a Merger (unless otherwise consented to in writing by Lender pursuant to Section 7.8 above), or (b) immediately upon the sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of Borrower’s assets outside of the ordinary course of business unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Lender.

          7.17.          Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower shall not allow any Subsidiary to enter into any loan agreement or otherwise borrow money which involves the grant of a security interest in any of Subsidiary’s assets (including but not limited to hereafter acquired assets and/or Intellectual Property) unless (i) for such transactions involving not more than US $50,000, or (ii) for purchase money liens on Equipment which has been acquired or held by such Subsidiary and such Liens are incurred for financing the acquisition of the Equipment, if,  (y) the Liens are confined to the Equipment and proceeds of the Equipment, and (z) the aggregated amount of purchase money liens does not exceed US $100,000.00.

          7.19.          SBIC Regulatory Provisions.

Such right shall be upon the most favorable terms and conditions afforded to other investors in the Next Event.  Borrower will provide Lender with at least fifteen (15) days notice of the Next Event, including a copy of the most favorable terms and conditions afforded to other investors in the Next Event.  In the event Lender fails to give Borrower notice that Lender wishes to participate in the Next Event prior to the closing of the Next Event, then Lender’s purchase option shall lapse and be of no further force and effect.

          10.2.          Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may, at any time or from time to time, apply, collect, liquidate, sell in one or more sales, lease or otherwise dispose of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, in such order as Lender may elect.  Any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at its place of business or elsewhere.  Borrower agrees that any such public or private sale may occur upon ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice to Borrower.  Lender may require Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place designated by Lender that is reasonably convenient to Lender and Borrower.  The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all
or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by Lender in the following order of priorities:

	
  
 
  	
  
               First,   to Lender in an amount sufficient to pay in full Lender’s costs and   professionals’ and advisors’ fees and expenses as described in Section 11.15;
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
               Second,   to Lender in an amount equal to the then unpaid amount of the Secured   Obligations (including principal, interest, and the Default Rate interest),   in such order and priority as Lender may choose in its sole discretion; and
  
	
   
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
               Finally,   after the full, final, and indefeasible payment in Cash of all of the Secured   Obligations, to any creditor holding a junior Lien on the Collateral, or to   Borrower or its representatives or as a court of competent jurisdiction may   direct.
  

Lender shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition of any of the Collateral if it complies with the obligations of a secured party under the UCC.

          10.3.          Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral for the benefit of Borrower or any other Person, and Borrower expressly waives all rights, if any, to require Lender to marshal any Collateral.

SECTION 11.    MISCELLANEOUS

          11.1.          Continuation of Security Interest.  This is a continuing Agreement and the grant of a Lien hereunder shall remain in full force and effect and all of the rights, powers and remedies of Lender hereunder shall continue to exist until the Secured Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are fully, finally, and indefeasibly paid in Cash and until Lender has executed a written termination statement.  Lender shall execute a termination statement or authorize the filing by Borrower or its representative of a termination statement within a reasonable time after the full, final, and indefeasible payment in Cash of the Secured Obligations hereunder, reconveying to Borrower, without recourse, the Collateral and all rights conveyed hereby and returning possession of the Collateral to Borrower.  The rights, powers and
remedies of Lender hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by statute or rule of law and are cumulative.  The exercise of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies provided herein shall not be construed as a waiver of or election of remedies with respect to any other rights, powers and remedies of Lender.

25

          11.2.          Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent and duration of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

          11.3.          Notice.  Except as otherwise provided herein, any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, service of process or other communication (including the delivery of Financial Statements) that is required, contemplated, or permitted under the Loan Documents or with respect to the subject matter hereof shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, delivered, and received upon the earlier of: (i) the first business day after transmission by facsimile or hand delivery or deposit with an overnight express service or overnight mail delivery service; or (ii) the third calendar day after deposit in the United States mails, with proper first class postage prepaid (provided, that any Advance Request shall not be deemed received until Lender’s actual receipt thereof), and shall be

          11.4.          Entire Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents, the Warrant Agreement, and the Prefiling Authorization dated as of June 26, 2006 among the parties and KBA Ventures, LLC constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede and replace in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof or thereof (including Lender’s proposal letter dated June 9, 2006).  None of the terms of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.

          11.5.          Headings.  The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

          11.6.          Advice of Counsel.  Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 11.12, 11.13 and 11.14.

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

          11.8.          No Waiver.  The powers conferred upon Lender by this Agreement are solely to protect its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Lender to exercise any such powers.  No omission or delay by Lender at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by Borrower at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or remedy to which Lender is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of Lender to enforce such provisions thereafter.

          11.9.          Survival.  All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall be for the benefit of the parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.

          11.10.          Successors and Assigns.  The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on Borrower and its permitted assigns (if any).  Borrower shall not assign its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents without Lender’s express prior written consent, and any such attempted assignment shall be void and of no effect.  Lender may assign, transfer, or endorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as set forth in Section 11.17 without prior notice to Borrower, and all of such rights shall inure to the benefit of Lender’s successors and assigns.

          11.11.          Tax Indemnification.  Borrower agrees to pay, and to save Lender harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes (excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender) that may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          11.12.          Governing Law.  This Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents have been negotiated and delivered to Lender in the State of California, and shall have been accepted by Lender in the State of California.  Payment to Lender by Borrower of the Secured Obligations is due in the State of California.  This Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.

27

          11.13.          Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.  All judicial proceedings (to the extent that the arbitration requirement of Section 11.14 is not applicable) arising in or under or related to this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents may be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California.  By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to personal jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, State of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in Santa Clara County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this
Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents.  Service of process on any party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given in accordance with the requirements for notice set forth in Section 11.3, and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth in Section 11.3.  Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of either party to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

          11.14.          Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial / Consent to Arbitration.

                                        (a)     Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.  EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES (TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY BORROWER AGAINST LENDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY LENDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE AGAINST
BORROWER.  This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve Persons other than Borrower and Lender; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between Borrower and Lender; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, tort, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Excluded Agreements.

                                        (b)     If the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 11.14(a) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of JAMS (the “Rules”), such arbitration to occur before one arbitrator, which arbitrator shall be a retired California state judge or a retired Federal court judge.  Such proceeding shall be conducted in San Francisco County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such arbitration.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on the parties, and shall be final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by law. 
Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by the prevailing party as a final judgment of such court.

                                        (c)     In the event Claims are to be resolved by arbitration, either party may seek from a court of competent jurisdiction identified in Section 11.13, any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by binding arbitration.

28

          11.15.          Professional Fees.  Borrower promises to pay Lender’s out-of-pocket fees and expenses necessary to finalize the loan documentation, including but not limited to attorneys fees, UCC searches, filing costs, and other miscellaneous expenses.  In addition, Borrower promises to pay any and all reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses reasonably incurred out-of-pocket by Lender after the Closing Date in connection with or related to:  (a) the Loan; (b) the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Loan; (c) the amendment or modification of the Loan Documents; (d) any waiver, consent, release, or termination under the Loan Documents; (e) the protection, preservation, sale, lease, liquidation, or disposition of Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect
to the Collateral; (f) any legal, litigation, administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in connection with or related to Borrower or the Collateral, and any appeal or review thereof; and (g) any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout, foreclosure, or other action related to Borrower, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, or the Excluded Agreements, including representing Lender in any adversary proceeding or contested matter commenced or continued by or on behalf of Borrower’s estate, and any appeal or review thereof.  Lender’s professional fees and expenses shall include fees or expenses for Lender’s attorneys, accountants, auctioneers, liquidators, appraisers, investment advisors, environmental and management consultants, or experts engaged by Lender in connection with the foregoing.  Borrower’s promise to pay all of Lender’s professional fees and expenses is part of the Secured Obligations
under this Agreement.  For the purposes of this Section 11.15, attorneys’ fees shall include fees incurred in connection with the following: (i) contempt proceedings; (ii) discovery; (iii) any motion, proceeding or other activity of any kind in connection with an insolvency proceeding; (iv) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; and (v) post-judgment motions and proceedings of any kind, including without limitation any activity taken to collect or enforce any judgment.  All of the foregoing costs and expenses not paid on or before the Closing Date shall be payable with 30 days of written demand by Lender, and if not paid within thirty (30) days of presentation of invoices shall bear interest at the highest applicable Default Rate.  Borrower agrees that Lender’s written demand need not consist of more detail than a separate line item for each general category of expense and corresponding amount, such as legal fees and costs $100.00,
filing fees $100.00, or courier services $100.00, etc.

          11.16.          Confidentiality.  Lender acknowledges that certain items of Collateral, including, but not limited to trade secrets, source codes, customer lists and certain other items of Intellectual Property, and any Financial Statements provided pursuant hereto, and such information that is marked as confidential by Borrower at the time of disclosure or would otherwise reasonably be expected by a reasonable business person to constitute proprietary and confidential information, shall constitute proprietary and confidential information of Borrower (the “Confidential Information”).  Accordingly, Lender agrees that any Confidential Information it may obtain in the course of acquiring, administering, or perfecting Lender’s security interest in the Collateral or in administering this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
(other than the Excluded Agreements) shall be received in the strictest confidence and shall not be disclosed to any other person or entity in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Borrower, except that Lender may disclose any such information:  (a) to its own directors, officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other professional advisors and to its Affiliates if Lender in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information and, provided that such recipient of such Confidential Information either (i) agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this paragraph 11.16 or (ii) is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against the disclosure of Confidential Information; (b) if such information is generally available to the public; (c) if required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any governmental authority having or claiming
to have jurisdiction over Lender; (d) if required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, to the extent permitted or deemed advisable by Lender’s counsel provided that Lender gives Borrower advance notice of such disclosure and sufficient time if Lender is able to do so to permit Borrower to seek an appropriate protective order and provided further that Lender shall only disclose the Confidential Information to the minimum extent necessary to comply therewith; (e) to comply with any legal requirement or law applicable to Lender; (f) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, including Lender’s sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral after an Event of Default, which Collateral constitutes or is reasonably related to Confidential Information; (g) to any participant or assignee of Lender or any prospective participant or assignee;
provided, that such participant or assignee or prospective participant or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by this Section prior to disclosure; or (h) otherwise with the prior consent of Borrower; provided, that any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

29

          11.17.          Assignment of Rights.  Borrower acknowledges and understands that Lender may sell, assign, pledge or otherwise deal with (each an “Assignment”) all or part of its interest hereunder and under the Note(s) and Loan Documents with or to any Person (a) that is an Affiliate of Lender servicing the Loan in connection with the Note Purchase Agreement among Hercules Funding Trust I, Hercules Funding I LLC, Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. dated as of August 1, 2005, (b) that is an Affiliate of Lender licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration, or ( c) that is Lender’s senior secured lender (each of (a), (b) and ( c) being a “ Permitted Assignee”).  After any Assignment the term “Lender” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include any such
Permitted Assignee, and such Permitted Assignee shall be vested with and succeed to all rights, powers and remedies of Lender hereunder with respect to any interest subject to an Assignment; but with respect to any such interest not subject to the Assignment, Lender shall retain all rights, powers and remedies hereby given.  No Assignment by Lender shall relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder.  Lender agrees that in the event of any Assignment to a Permitted Assignee by the Lender of the Note(s), it will endorse thereon a notation as to the portion of the principal of the Note(s), which shall have been paid at the time of the Assignment and as to the date to which interest shall have been last paid thereon.  Other than to a Permitted Assignee, no Assignment of the Note and Loan Documents shall be permitted under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Borrower.

          11.18.          Revival of Secured Obligations.  This Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective if any petition is filed by or against Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, if Borrower becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s assets, or if any payment or transfer of Collateral is recovered from Lender.  The Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations and Collateral security shall continue to be effective, or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations or any transfer of Collateral to Lender, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored
or returned by, or is recovered from, Lender or by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment, performance, or transfer of Collateral had not been made.  In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable, restored, returned, or recovered, the Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any further action or documentation, to have been revived and reinstated except to the extent of the full, final, and indefeasible payment to Lender in Cash.

          11.19.          Counterparts.  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

          11.20.          No Third Party Beneficiaries.  No provisions of the Loan Documents are intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any person other than Lender and Borrower unless specifically provided otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise so provided, all provisions of the Loan Documents will be personal and solely between the Lender and the Borrower.

30

          11.21.          Specific Performance.  The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to Lender by reason of Borrower’s failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by Lender.  If Lender institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any Person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that Lender has an adequate remedy at law, and such Person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.

          11.22.          Borrower authorizes Lender to use Borrower’s name and logo, and include a brief description of the relationship between Borrower and Lender, in Lender’s marketing materials. Lender shall provide a copy of such materials to Borrower.

          11.23          Lender acknowledges that as a result of its position as Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents it has or may receive non-public information about the Borrower which is or may be material.  Accordingly, Lender agrees that it will not, and will use all reasonable commercial efforts to cause each of those Persons identified in Section 11.16(a) who receive Confidential Information to not, unlawfully enter into any securities transaction of any kind whatsoever involving any of the Borrower’s securities based on any material non-public information.

          11.24          Lender agrees that Lender has not engaged and shall not, directly or indirectly engage in any short-sales involving Borrower’s common stock.  Subject as set forth below in this paragraph, Lender may engage in any puts, options, calls or any other trading or securities transaction involving Borrower’s common stock that is for the purpose of locking in the value in the relevant securities but otherwise has not engaged and shall not engage in any puts, options, calls or any other trading or securities transaction involving Borrower’s common stock that is for the purpose of affecting, the market or trading in Borrower’s common stock or any other equity securities issued by the Borrower.  Lender understands that the foregoing sentence is material to the Borrower’s entering into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall restrict Lender in the exercise of its rights under the Warrant Agreement including without limitation to purchase shares of Borrower’s common stock under the Warrant Agreement or to sell such shares that Lender may acquire thereunder or in connection with the purchase of any securities that Lender may acquire pursuant to the Next Event or to sell such securities.

          For value received, the Company hereby grants to the Warrantholder, and the Warrantholder is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to subscribe for and purchase, from the Company, 91,912 fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Common Stock (as defined below) at a purchase price of $8.16 per share (the “Exercise Price”).  The number and Exercise Price of such shares are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8.  As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

	
  
 
  	
  
“Act”   means the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended.
  

	
  
 
  	
  
“Charter” means the
Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Certificate of Incorporation or other
constitutional document, as may be amended from time to time.
 
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
   
  	
  
“Common   Stock” means the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
“Merger   Event” means a reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger   (or similar transaction or series of related transactions) involving the   Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or in which the   outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock are otherwise converted   into or exchanged for shares or units of capital of another entity.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
“Purchase   Price” means, with respect to any exercise of this Agreement, an amount   equal to the Exercise Price as of the relevant time multiplied by the number   of shares of Common Stock requested to be exercised under this Agreement   pursuant to such exercise.
  

SECTION 2.   TERM OF THE AGREEMENT.

          Except as otherwise provided for herein, the term of this Agreement and the right to purchase Common Stock as granted herein (the “Warrant) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall be exercisable for a period ending seven (7) years from the Effective Date.

SECTION 3.    EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE RIGHTS.

          (a)           Exercise.  The purchase rights set forth in this Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2, by tendering to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Notice of Exercise”), duly completed and executed.  Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than three (3) days thereafter, the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased, and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the “Acknowledgment of
Exercise”) indicating the number of shares which remain subject to future purchases, if any, under this Warrant.  The Company shall also comply with its requirements under Section 12(u) of this Agreement to ensure the timely delivery of shares of Common Stock to Warrantholder.

2

          The Purchase Price may be paid at the Warrantholder’s election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant  for shares of Common Stock to be exercised under this Agreement and, if applicable, an amended Agreement representing the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder, as determined below (“Net Issuance”).  If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company will issue Common Stock in accordance with the following formula:

	
   
  	
  
 
  	
  
X=Y(A-B)
          A
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
Where:
  	
  
X=
  	
  
the number   of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
     Y   =     the number of shares of Common Stock requested   to be exercised under this Agreement.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
   
  	
  
 
  	
  
     A   =     the fair market value of one (1) share of Common   Stock at the time of issuance of such shares of Common Stock.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
B=
  	
  
the Exercise   Price.
  

          For purposes of the above calculation, current fair market value of Common Stock shall mean with respect to each share of Common Stock:

	
  
 
  	
  
(i)
  	
  
if the   exercise is after, and not in connection with an Initial Public Offering,   and:
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
   
  	
  
          (A)   if the Common Stock is traded on a securities exchange, the fair market value   shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices over a five (5) trading   day period ending one (1) trading day before the day the current fair market   value of the securities is being determined; or
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
          (B)   if the Common Stock is traded over-the-counter, the fair market value shall   be deemed to be the average of the closing bid and asked prices quoted on the   NASDAQ system (or similar system) over the five (5) trading day period ending   one (1) trading day before the day the current fair market value of the   securities is being determined;
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(ii)
  	
  
if at any   time the Common Stock is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted in   the NASDAQ National Market or the over-the-counter market, the current fair   market value of Common Stock shall be the highest price per share which the   Company could obtain from a willing buyer (not a current employee or director   or any person affiliated with Warrantholder or other holder of this Warrant)   for shares of Common Stock sold by the Company, from authorized but unissued   shares, as determined in good faith by its Board of Directors unless the   Company shall become subject to a Merger Event, in which case the fair market   value of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the per share value received by   the holders of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to such Merger Event.
  

          Upon partial exercise by either cash or Net Issuance, the Company shall promptly issue an amended Agreement representing the remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder. All other terms and conditions of such amended Agreement shall be identical to those contained herein, including, but not limited to the Effective Date hereof.

3

          (b)     Exercise Prior to Expiration.  To the extent this Agreement is not previously exercised as to all Common Stock subject hereto, and if the fair market value of one share of the Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Agreement shall be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to Section 3(a) (even if not surrendered) as of the last business day on, or if the expiration date is not a business day then immediately before, the expiration date of this Warrant.  For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one share of the Common Stock upon such expiration shall be determined pursuant to Section 3(a).  To the extent this Agreement or any portion thereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section 3(b), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Warrantholder of the number of shares of Common Stock, if
any, the Warrantholder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise, and payment thereof shall be made through Net Issuance, and a certificate representing the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder shall be promptly issued and delivered to the Warrantholder.

SECTION 4.   RESERVATION OF SHARES.

          During the term of this Agreement, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights to purchase Common Stock as provided for herein.

SECTION 5.   NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP.

          No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Agreement, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

SECTION 6.   NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER/STOCKHOLDER.

          This Agreement does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder/stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.   WARRANTHOLDER REGISTRY.

          The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Agreement.  Warrantholder’s initial address, for purposes of such registry, is set forth below Warrantholder’s signature on this Agreement.  Warrantholder may change such address by giving written notice of such changed address to the Company.

4

SECTION 8.   ADJUSTMENT RIGHTS.

          The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment, as follows:

          (a)     Merger Event.  If at any time there shall be Merger Event, then, as a part of such Merger Event, lawful provision shall be made so that the Warrantholder shall thereafter be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Agreement, the number of shares of common stock or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such Merger Event that would have been issuable if Warrantholder had exercised this Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of the Merger Event.  In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the rights and interests of the Warrantholder after the Merger Event to the end that the provisions of this Agreement (including adjustments of the Exercise Price and number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable) shall be applicable in their entirety, and to the greatest extent possible.  Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Merger Event, upon the closing thereof, the successor or surviving entity shall assume the obligations of this Agreement.  In connection with a Merger Event and upon Warrantholder’s written election to the Company, the Company shall cause this Warrant Agreement to be exchanged for the consideration that Warrantholder would have received if Warrantholder chose to exercise its right to have shares issued pursuant to the Net Issuance provisions of this Warrant Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of the Merger Event without actually exercising such right, and without acquiring such shares and exchanging such shares for such consideration.

          (b)     Reclassification of Shares.  Except as set forth in Section 8(a), if the Company at any time shall, by combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Agreement exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Agreement shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.

          (c)     Subdivision or Combination of Shares.  If the Company at any time shall combine or subdivide its Common Stock, (i) in the case of a subdivision, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Agreement shall be proportionately increased, or (ii) in the case of a combination, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Agreement shall be proportionately decreased.

          (d)     Stock Dividends.  If the Company at any time while this Agreement is outstanding and unexpired shall:

	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
(i)
  	
  
pay a   dividend with respect to the Common Stock payable in Common Stock, then the   Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of   stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price   determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to   such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be   the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to   such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the   total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such   dividend or distribution; or
  

5

	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
(ii)
  	
  
make any   other distribution with respect to Common Stock, except any distribution   specifically provided for in any other clause of this Section 8, then,   in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that the   Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant a   proportionate share of any such distribution as though it were the holder of   the Common Stock as of the record date fixed for the determination of the   stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution.
  

          (e)     Antidilution Rights. Antidilution rights applicable to the Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be as set forth in the Company’s Charter from time to time and shall be applicable with respect to the Common Stock issuable hereunder.  The Company shall promptly provide the Warrantholder with any restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter; provided, that no such amendment, modification or waiver shall impair or reduce the antidilution rights applicable to the Common Stock as of the date hereof unless such amendment, modification or waiver affects the rights of Warrantholder with respect to the Common Stock in the same manner as it affects all other holders of Common Stock.  The Company shall provide Warrantholder with prior written notice of any issuance of its stock or other equity security to occur after the Effective Date of
this Agreement, which notice shall include (a) the price at which such stock or security is to be sold, (b) the number of shares to be issued, and (c) such other information as necessary for Warrantholder to determine if a dilutive event has occurred and the number of additional shares of Common Stock that may be purchased upon the occurrence of any dilutive event. For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no duplicate anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to this subsection (e), the forgoing subsection (d) and the Company’s Charter.

          (f)     Notice of Adjustments.  If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its stock, whether in stock, cash, property or other securities; (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription prorata to the holders of any class of its Common Stock or other convertible stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any Merger Event; (iv) the Company shall sell, lease, license or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets; or (v) there shall be any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall send to the Warrantholder: (A) at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution, subscription rights (specifying
the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote in respect of such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding up; and (B) in the case of any such Merger Event, sale, lease, license or other transfer of all or substantially all assets, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding up).

6

          Each such written notice (or a subsequent notice given at least five (5) days prior to the Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up) shall set forth, in reasonable detail, (i) the event requiring the notice, and (ii) if any adjustment is required to be made, (A) the amount of such adjustment, (B) the method by which such adjustment was calculated, (C) the adjusted Exercise Price (if the Exercise Price has been adjusted), and (D) the number of shares subject to purchase hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid, addressed to the Warrantholder at the address for Warrantholder set forth in the registry referred to in Section 7.

          (g)     Timely Notice.  Failure to timely provide such notice required by subsection (f) above shall entitle Warrantholder to retain the benefit of the applicable notice period notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any insufficient notice received by Warrantholder.  For purposes of this subsection (g), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12(g), the notice period shall begin on the date Warrantholder actually receives a written notice containing all the information required to be provided in such subsection (f).

SECTION 9.    REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

          (a)     Reservation of Common Stock.  The Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrantholder’s rights has been or will be duly and validly reserved and, when issued in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and will be free of any taxes, liens, charges or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; provided, that the Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws.  The Company has made available to the Warrantholder true, correct and complete copies of its Charter and current bylaws. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Agreement shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any issuance tax in respect thereof, or other cost incurred by the Company in
connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer and the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Warrantholder.

          (b)     Due Authority.  The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder, including the issuance to Warrantholder of the right to acquire the shares of Common Stock, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.  This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

7

          (c)     Consents and Approvals.  No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, except for the filing of notices pursuant to Regulation D under the Act and any filing required by applicable state securities law or any exchange on which shares of the Company’s stock shall be traded, which filings will be effective by the time required thereby.

          (d)     Issued Securities.  All issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s securities have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.  All outstanding shares of the Company’s securities were issued in full compliance with all federal and state securities laws.  

          (e)     Other Commitments to Register Securities.  Other than warrants to purchase 130,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share granted to the Company’s underwriter in connection with the Company’s initial public offering in 2005, and warrants to purchase 110,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8.10 per share granted  to KBA Ventures, LLC (f/k/a Posh Tots, LLC), the Company is not, pursuant to the terms of any other agreement currently in existence, under any obligation to register under the Act any of its presently outstanding securities or any of its securities which may hereafter be issued.

          (f)     Exempt Transaction.  Subject to the accuracy of the Warrantholder’s representations in Section 10, the issuance of the Common Stock upon exercise of this Agreement constitutes a transaction exempt from (i) the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act, in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof, and (ii) the qualification requirements of the applicable state securities laws.

          (g)     Compliance with Rule 144. If the Warrantholder proposes to sell Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Agreement, or the Common Stock into which it is convertible,  in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC, then, upon Warrantholder’s written request to the Company, the Company shall furnish to the Warrantholder, within ten days after receipt of such request, a written statement confirming the Company’s compliance with the filing requirements of the SEC as set forth in such Rule, as such Rule may be amended from time to time.

          (h)     Information Rights.  During the term of this Warrant, Warrantholder shall be entitled to the information rights contained in Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement, and Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference as though fully set forth herein, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver a Compliance Certificate once all Indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement) owed by the Company to Warrantholder has been repaid.  The obligations pursuant to this subsection (h) shall not apply to any transferee of all or part of this Warrant, unless such transferee is a “Permitted Assignee” as defined by the Loan Agreement.

8

          (i)     Trading Based on Non-Public Information.  Warrantholder acknowledges that as a result of its position as Lender under the Loan Agreement it has or may receive non-public information about the Company which is or may be material.  Accordingly, Warrantholder agrees that it will not unlawfully exercise or transfer all or any part of this Warrant based on any material non-public information.

SECTION 10.    REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE WARRANTHOLDER.

          This Agreement has been entered into by the Company in reliance upon the following representations and covenants of the Warrantholder:

          (a)     Investment Purpose.  This Warrant has been acquired for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Warrantholder has no present intention of selling or engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to a registration or exemption.

          (b)     Private Issue.  The Warrantholder understands (i) that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Agreement is not registered under the Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws on the ground that the issuance contemplated by this Agreement will be exempt from the registration and qualifications requirements thereof, and (ii) that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is predicated on the representations set forth in this Section 10.

          (c)     Financial Risk.  The Warrantholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of its investment.

          (d)     Risk of No Registration.  The Warrantholder understands that if a registration statement covering the securities under the Act is not in effect when it desires to sell (i) the rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the right to purchase, it may be required to hold such securities for an indefinite period.  The Warrantholder also understands that any sale of (A) its rights hereunder to purchase Common Stock or (B) Common Stock issued or issuable hereunder which might be made by it in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Act may be made only in accordance with the terms and conditions of that Rule.

          (e)     Accredited Investor.  Warrantholder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.

SECTION 11.   TRANSFERS.

          Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, this Agreement and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the holder hereof (except for transfer taxes) upon surrender of this Agreement properly endorsed..  Each taker and holder of this Agreement, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that this Agreement, when endorsed in blank, shall be deemed negotiable, and that the holder hereof, when this Agreement shall have been so endorsed

9

and its transfer recorded on the Company’s books, shall be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Agreement as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Agreement.  The transfer of this Agreement shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon receipt by the Company of a notice of transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit III (the “Transfer Notice”), at its principal offices and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and other governmental charges imposed on such transfer.  Until the Company receives such Transfer Notice, the Company may treat the registered owner hereof as the owner for all purposes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned at any time to any Permitted Assignee (as defined under the Loan Agreement) and shall not be assigned to any person other than to such a Permitted Assignee
without the prior written consent of the Company.

SECTION 12.   MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a)     Effective Date.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and shall be given effect in all respects as of the date hereof.  This Agreement shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.

          (b)     Remedies.  In the event of any default hereunder, the non-defaulting party may proceed to protect and enforce its rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at law.  The parties hereto agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by either party hereto notwithstanding the availability of an adequate remedy at law.  If either party institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense that the complaining party has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.

          (c)     No Impairment of Rights.  The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any other means, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrantholder against impairment.

          (d)     Additional Documents.  The Company, upon execution of this Agreement, shall provide the Warrantholder with certified resolutions with respect to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Sections 9(a) through 9(d), 9(f) and 9(g). The Company shall also supply such other documents as the Warrantholder may from time to time reasonably request.

          (e)     Attorney’s Fees.  In any litigation, arbitration or court proceeding between the Company and the Warrantholder relating hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses and all costs of proceedings incurred in enforcing this Agreement.  For the purposes of this Section 12(e), attorneys’ fees shall include without limitation fees incurred in connection with the following: (i) contempt proceedings; (ii) discovery; (iii) any motion, proceeding or other activity of any kind in connection with an insolvency proceeding; (iv) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; and (v) post-judgment motions and proceedings of any kind, including without limitation any activity taken to collect or enforce any judgment.

10

          (f)     Severability.  In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired, and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and enforceable provision, which comes closest to the intention of the parties underlying the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

          (g)     Notices.  Except as otherwise provided herein, any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, service of process or other communication that is required, contemplated, or permitted under this Agreement or with respect to the subject matter hereof shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, delivered, and received upon the earlier of: (i) the first business day after transmission by facsimile or hand delivery or deposit with an overnight express service or overnight mail delivery service; or (ii) the third calendar day after deposit in the United States mails, with proper first class postage prepaid, and shall be addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

          (h)     Entire Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement and the Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement) constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof, and supersede and replace in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof (including Lender’s proposal letter dated June 9, 2006).  None of the terms of this Agreement may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.

          (i)     Headings.  The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

          (j)     Advice of Counsel.  Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12(n), 12(o), 12(p). 12(q) and 12(r).

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

          (l)     No Waiver.  No omission or delay by Warrantholder at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by the Company at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or remedy to which Warrantholder is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of Warrantholder to enforce such provisions thereafter.

          (m)     Survival.  All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant hereto shall be for the benefit of the parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.

          (n)     Governing Law.  This Agreement has been negotiated and delivered to Warrantholder in the State of California, and shall have been accepted by Warrantholder in the State of California.  Delivery of Common Stock to Warrantholder by the Company under this Agreement is due in the State of California.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.

12

          (o)     Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.  All judicial proceedings arising in or under or related to this Agreement may be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California.  By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to personal jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, State of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in Santa Clara County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement.  Service of process on any party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given in accordance with the requirements for
notice set forth in Section 12(g), and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth in Section 12(g).  Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of either party to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

          (p)     Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial.  Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.  EACH OF THE COMPANY AND WARRANTHOLDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY (TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW) OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY THE COMPANY AGAINST WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE AGAINST THE COMPANY.  This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve Persons other than the
Company and the Warrantholder; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between the Company and Warrantholder; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement.

          (q)     Arbitration.  If the Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial set forth in Section 12(p) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of JAMS (the “Rules”), such arbitration to occur before one arbitrator, which arbitrator shall be a retired California state judge or a retired Federal court judge.  Such proceeding shall be conducted in San Francisco County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such arbitration.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on the parties, and shall be final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by the prevailing party as a final judgment of such
court.

          (r)     Prearbitration Relief.  In the event Claims are to be resolved by arbitration, either party may seek from a court of competent jurisdiction identified in Section 12(o), any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by binding arbitration.

13

          (s)     Counterparts.  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

          (t)     Specific Performance.  The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the other by reason of any failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by any injured party to this Agreement.  If an injured party to this Agreement institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that the other has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.

          (u)     Registration Rights.  

     (I) The Company shall prepare, and, as soon as possible but in no event later than the date that is 60 days after the date of this Agreement, file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or if Form S-3 is unavailable then on a Form S-1 or other form reasonably acceptable to Warrantholder) for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), covering the resale of all of the Warrant Shares.  The Company shall use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible, but in no event later than four months after the date hereof. The Company shall pay all costs and expenses related to the registration of the Warrant Shares, including without limitation the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to the Warrantholder.  The Company shall use its best efforts to keep
such registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until all of the Warrant Shares have been sold (the “Registration Period”).  The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection therewith, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times until the expiration of the Registration Period.  If such a Registration Statement is not (A) filed with the SEC on or before 60 days after the date of this Agreement (a “Filing Failure”), (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the date that is four months after the date hereof (an “Effectiveness Failure”), or (C) kept continuously effective throughout the Registration Period (a “Maintenance Failure”), then as relief for the damages to the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement, by reason of any such
failure, the Company shall pay to the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement an amount in cash equal to (x) three percent (3.0%) of the aggregate Purchase Price due and payable upon the full exercise of the Warrant (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) on each of the following dates: (i) the day of a Filing Failure; (ii) the day of an Effectiveness Failure; and (iii) the initial day of a Maintenance Failure, and (y) three percent (3.0%) of the Aggregate Exercise Price on

14

each of the following dates: (i) on every thirtieth day after the day of a Filing Failure and thereafter (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) until such Filing Failure is cured; (ii) on every thirtieth day after the day of an Effectiveness Failure and thereafter (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) until such Effectiveness Failure is cured; (iii) on every thirtieth day after the initial day of a Maintenance Failure and thereafter (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) until such Maintenance Failure is cured (each of the above payments, the “Registration Delay Payments”); provided, however, that in no case shall there be aggregate Registration Delay Payments in an amount exceeding twenty-one percent (21%) of the Aggregate Exercise Price, other than with respect to the final sentence of this sub-paragraph.  Registration Delay Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (aa) the last day of the calendar
month during which such Registration Delay Payments are incurred and (bb) the third Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured.  In the event the Company fails to make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner, such Registration Delay Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 2.0% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

     (II) The Company shall, not less than three (3) business days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or any related prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (i) furnish to the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement copies of the Registration Statement or prospectus proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. Furthermore, the Company shall advise the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement, within two (2) business days: (x) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC
delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose, or any other order issued by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Warrant Shares under state securities or “blue sky” laws; and it will promptly use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order or other order should be issued; and (y) when the prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective.

     (III) (i) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder Indemnitee (as defined below) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which such Holder Indemnitee may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (A) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus, (B) any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, (C) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Company in this Warrant and (D) any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any other law, including, without

15

limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Warrant Shares, and the Company will promptly reimburse such Holder Indemnitee for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend, settling, compromising or paying any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises solely out of, or is based solely upon, an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder Indemnitee specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement.

          (ii) The Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement agrees (severally and not jointly with any other holder under this Agreement) to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise solely out of, or are based solely upon, any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, but only if and to the extent that such untrue statement was made in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement (provided, however, that the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement shall not be liable in any such case for any untrue statement in any Registration Statement or prospectus if such statement has been corrected in writing by the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement and delivered to the Company at least three business days prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate liability of each of the Warrantholder and any holder under this Agreement pursuant to this subsection (ii) shall be limited to the net amount received by the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement from the sale of the Warrant Shares. 

          (iii) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 12(u), such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 12(u) (except to the extent that such omission materially and adversely affects the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action) or from any liability otherwise than under this Section 12(u). Subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to
the extent that it shall elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying person shall not 

16

be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof, provided however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the opinion of counsel to the indemnifying person, for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties. In no event shall any indemnifying person be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying person shall have approved the terms of such settlement;
provided, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying person shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

          (iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 12(u) is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to herein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Warrantholder and any holder under this Agreement agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (iv) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (iv). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection
(iv) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (iv), the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement from the sale of the Warrant Shares. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  The obligations in this subsection of the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement to contribute are several in proportion to the sales of Warrant Shares to which such loss relates and not joint with any other holder under this Agreement. 

17

          (v) For purposes of this Section 12(u), the term “Holder Indemnitee” shall include the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement, its officers, directors, employees, partners, agents and any person controlling the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement; the term “Registration Statement” shall include any final prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to the Registration Statement; and the term “untrue statement” shall include (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the prospectus a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

          (w) Shorting.  The Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement agrees that the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement has not engaged and shall not, directly or indirectly engage in any short-sales involving the Company’s common stock.  Subject as set forth below in this paragraph, the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement may engage in any puts, options, calls or any other trading or securities transaction involving the Company’s common stock that is for the purpose of locking in the value in the relevant securities but otherwise has not engaged and shall not engage in any puts, options, calls or any other trading or securities transaction involving the Company’s common stock that is for the purpose of affecting, the market or trading in the Company’s common stock or any other equity securities issued by the Company.  The Warrantholder or any
holder under this Agreement understands that the foregoing sentence is material to the Company’s entering into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall restrict the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement in the exercise of its rights under this Agreement including without limitation to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock under this Agreement or to sell such shares that the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement may acquire hereunder or in connection with the purchase of any securities that the Warrantholder or any holder under this Agreement may acquire pursuant to the Next Event (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or to sell such securities.
