 1.1 Credit Facilities 
  
 1.1.1 The Revolving Loan. Bank will loan to Borrower an amount not
to exceed Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) outstanding in the aggregate at any one time (the “Revolving Loan”). The proceeds of the Revolving Loan shall be used for Borrower’s general working capital purposes. Borrower may borrow,
repay and reborrow all or part of the Revolving Loan in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Note (defined below). All borrowings of the Revolving Loan must be made before May 31, 2005 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time all unpaid
principal and interest of the Revolving Loan shall be due and payable. The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by Bank’s standard form of commercial promissory note (the “Revolving Note”). Bank shall enter each amount borrowed and
repaid in Bank’s records and such entries shall be deemed correct absent manifest error. Omission of Bank to make any such entries shall not discharge Borrower of its obligation to repay in full with interest all amounts borrowed. Bank may
debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts including Account Number 6450155428 for principal and interest payments or any payments Borrower owes Bank. Bank will notify Borrower of such debits. These debits are not a set-off.

Loan, Bank shall issue, for the account of Borrower, one or more irrevocable commercial letters of credit (individually, a “Commercial L/C”) with transport documents presented in a full set to Bank (and, in case of airway bills, consigned
to Bank) covering, the importation or purchase of computer and electronics equipment. All Commercial L/Cs shall be drawn on terms and conditions acceptable to Bank and shall be governed by the terms of (and Borrower agrees to execute) Bank’s
standard form of commercial letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement. No Commercial L/C shall expire more than 365 days from the date of its issuance, and in no event later than the Maturity Date. 
  
 (b) The Standby L/C Sublimit. As a sublimit under the Revolving Loan,
Bank shall issue; for the account of Borrower, one or more irrevocable standby letters of credit (individually, a “Standby L/C”). All Standby L/Cs shall be drawn on terms and conditions acceptable to Bank and shall be governed by the terms
of (and Borrower agrees to execute) Bank’s standard form of standby letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement. No Standby L/C shall expire more than 365 days from the date of its issuance, and in no event later than the Maturity
Date. 

 The aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Commercial L/Cs and all Standby L/Cs and the aggregate amount of
unpaid reimbursement obligations under drawn Commercial L/Cs and Standby L/Cs shall not exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate and shall reduce, dollar for dollar, the maximum amount available under the Revolving Loan.

 2 

 
other than Bank unless Bank consents thereto in writing, and at Debtor’s expense upon Bank’s request remove any unauthorized lien or security
interest and defend any claim affecting the Collateral; (e) pay all charges against Collateral prior to delinquency including but not limited to taxes, assessments, encumbrances, insurance and diverse claims, and upon Debtor’s failure to do so

true and lawful attorney of Debtor and authorizes Bank to perform any and all acts which Bank in good faith deems necessary for the protection and preservation of Collateral or its value of Bank’s security interest therein, including after the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and to the extent permitted by law transferring any Collateral into its own name and receiving the income thereon as additional security hereunder. Bank does not assume any of the obligations arising
under the Collateral.

security interest in Collateral to Bank; (c) all information furnished by Debtor to Bank heretofore or hereafter, whether oral or written, is and will be correct and true as of the date given; and (d) the execution, delivery and performance hereof

dispose of Collateral at public or private sale; (c) transfer any Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee; (d) retain Collateral in satisfaction of obligations secured hereby, with notice of such retention sent to Debtor as required by
law; (e) notify any parties obligated on any Collateral consisting of accounts, instruments, chattel paper, chooses in action or the like to make payment to Bank and enforce collection of any Collateral; (f) file any action or proceeding which Bank
deems necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of Bank in the Collateral; (g) require Debtor to assemble and deliver any Collateral to Bank at a reasonably convenient place designated by Bank; (h) apply all sums
received or collected from or on account of Collateral, including the proceeds of any sales thereof, to the payment of the costs and expenses incurred in preserving and enforcing rights of Bank (including but not limited to reasonable
attorneys’ fees), and indebtedness secured hereby in such order and manner as Bank in its sole discretion determines; Bank shall account to Debtor for any surplus remaining thereafter, and shall pay such surplus to the party entitled thereto,
including any second secured party who has made a proper demand upon Bank and has furnished proof to Bank as requested in the manner provided by law; in like manner, Debtor agrees to pay to Bank without 

  

 3 

 
demand any deficiency after any Collateral has been disposed of and proceeds applied as aforesaid; and (1) exercise its banker’s lien or right of setoff
in the same manner as though the credit were unsecured. Bank shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of California in any jurisdiction where enforcement is sought, whether in said state or
elsewhere. All rights, powers and remedies of Bank hereunder shall be cumulative and not alternative. No delay on the part of Bank in the exercise of any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver thereof and no exercise by Bank of any right or
remedy shall preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy or further exercise of the same remedy. 
  
 6. Debtor waives: (a) all right to require Bank to proceed against any other person including any other Debtor hereunder or to apply any Collateral Bank
may hold at any time or to pursue any other remedy, Collateral, endorsers or guarantors may be released, substituted or added without affecting the liability of Debtor hereunder; (b) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action upon any
obligations of Debtor secured hereby; (c) any right of subrogation and any right to participate in Collateral until all obligations secured hereby have been paid in full, and (d) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to oppose the
appointment of a receiver or similar official to operate Debtor’s business. 
  
 7. The security interest granted herein is irrevocable and shall remain in full force and effect until there is payment in full of the Indebtedness or the security interest is released in writing by Bank. 

 
 8. Debtor shall be obligated to request the release, reassignment or
return of Collateral after payment in full of existing obligations. Bank shall be under no duty or obligation to release, reassign or return any Collateral except upon the express written request of Debtor and then only where all of Debtor’s
obligations hereunder have been paid in full. 
  
 9. This
Agreement shall be for the benefit of and bind Bank, its successors and assigns and each of the undersigned, their respective heirs, executors, administrators and successors in interest. Upon transfer by Bank of any part of the obligations secured
hereby, Bank shall be fully discharged from any liability with respect to Collateral transferred therewith. 
  
 10. 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 or invalid under applicable law, such provisions shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement. 
  
 11. Debtor will (a) not permit the inclusion in any
contract to which it becomes a party, any provisions that could or might in any way impair or prevent the creation of a security interest in Debtor’s rights and interest in the Collateral; (b) use its best efforts to detect infringement of the
Collateral and advise Bank in’ writing of material infringements detected; (c) not allow any Collateral to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public; (d) register with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States

respect to software products, but only following written notice to Bank; (e) deliver to Bank such additional grants of security interest or collateral
assignments as Bank may reasonably request for the purpose of recording Bank’s interest in intellectual property rights registered by Debtor after the date of this Agreement; and (f) deliver to Bank upon its request, a report in form reasonably
acceptable to Bank, listing any applications or registrations that Debtor has filed and the status thereof in respect of any Collateral consisting of intellectual property rights. 
  
 12. The grant of a security interest in proceeds does not imply the right of Debtor to sell or dispose of any Collateral
without the express consent in writing by Bank or as otherwise permitted in the Loan Agreement.
