OF

COUNTRYWIDE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

(Amended and Restated Effective June 16, 2004)

     WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Countrywide Financial

the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan of Countrywide Financial Corporation (Amended and Restated Effective
June 16, 2004) to have optionees receive stock in lieu of cash in the event they wish to surrender
options following a Corporate Change;

     NOW
THEREFORE, the 2000 Plan is amended, effective as of December 23, 2005, in the following
particulars:

     1. Section 9.2 is hereby deleted and new Section 9.2 is inserted in its place as follows:

     “9.2 Effect of Corporate Change. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or an
Option Document to the contrary, in the event of a Corporate Change:

     (a) (1) all Options outstanding on the date of such Corporate Change shall become
immediately and fully exercisable and (2) an Optionee shall be permitted to surrender for
cancellation within sixty (60) days after such Corporate Change, any Option or portion of an
Option to the extent not yet exercised and the Optionee will be entitled to receive a
payment in Shares (valued at the Fair Market Value on the date preceding the date of such
surrender) equal to the excess, if any, of (x) (A) in the case of an Option not intended to
qualify as an ISO, the greater of (i) the Fair Market Value, on the date preceding the date
of surrender of the Shares subject to the Option or portion thereof surrendered, or (ii) the

Exhibit 10.1

CREDIT AGREEMENT

          This Credit Agreement is made as of December 27th, 2005 (this “Credit Agreement”)
among CASTLE PINES CAPITAL LLC (“CPC”), having its chief executive office located at
9785 Maroon Circle, Suite 110, Englewood, Colorado 80112; I-SECTOR CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation, (“I-SECTOR”), having its chief executive office located at 6401 South West
Freeway, Houston, Texas 77074, VALERENT, INC., a Delaware corporation, having its chief
executive office located at South West Freeway, Houston, Texas 77074 (“VALERENT”),
INTERNETWORK EXPERTS, INC. a Delaware corporation, having its chief executive office located at
1955 Lakeway Drive, Suite 200, Lewisville, TX 75057 (“INX”), and STRATASOFT, INC., a
Texas corporation, having its chief executive office located at South West Freeway, Houston,
Texas 77074 (“STRATASOFT”) (I-SECTOR, VALERENT, INX AND STRATSOFT, collectively,
“Dealer”).

     WHEREAS, CPC is willing to accommodate the request for credit upon and subject to the
terms, conditions and provisions of the Documents (defined below);

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Dealer and CPC
hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:

     1. Extensions of Credit. Subject to the terms of this Credit Agreement together
with the attached Amendment(s) to Credit Agreement and Paydown Amendment to Credit Agreement
(collectively, this “Agreement”), CPC has made a discretionary line of credit up to a
maximum aggregate amount of $40,000,000 outstanding funded indebtedness (the “Line of
Credit”) available to Dealer. The Line of Credit may be used to enable Dealer to purchase
inventory from CPC approved vendors (“Vendors”) utilizing the Payment Due Date (as
defined in Section 24.11 below), or up to a maximum aggregate amount of $10,000,000 of the Line
of Credit (the “Sublimit”) may be used (a) for revolving credit loans for general
working capital purposes, or (b) at Dealer’s election, to pay for Financed Inventory (defined
below) on the Extended Payment Due Date (as defined in Section 24.5). CPC’s decision to advance
funds shall be made by CPC in its reasonable discretion. CPC may combine all of CPC’s advances
to Dealer or on Dealer’s behalf, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement between CPC
and Dealer, together with all finance charges, fees and expenses related thereto, to make one
debt owed by Dealer.

     2. Financing Terms.

	 	(a)	 	Financed Inventory. Upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
CPC agrees to finance Dealer’s purchases of Inventory which is factory sealed, from
Vendors subject to a Repurchase Agreement (“Financed Inventory”). Payment
for Financed Inventory shall be due on the Payment Due Date. Upon agreeing to
finance an item of inventory, CPC will send Dealer a transaction statement and/or
an invoice (“TS”), identifying such Inventory, which each TS shall be
incorporated into this Agreement by reference. Dealer may elect to remit payment
for Financed Inventory on the Extended Payment Due Date up to the maximum amount
available under the Sublimit (i.e., the remainder of the Sublimit minus all
outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in subsection
2(b)(i), below)), which Indebtedness qualifying thereunder shall be assessed
interest at the Extended Payment Rate, as defined in Section 24.6, below.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Revolving Credit Loans.

(i) General Terms. During the availability period described in subsection 2(c)
below, CPC will provide a line of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) to
Dealer. The amount of the

Page 1 of  23

 

Revolving Credit Facility is equal to the lesser of (A) the Sublimit or (B) the
Borrowing Base (as defined in subsection 2(b)(ii), below) (the “Revolving Credit
Availability”). During the availability period, Dealer must repay principal
amounts borrowed as provided in subsection 2(f), below. Principal repaid may be
reborrowed. Dealer agrees not to permit the outstanding principal balance of
advances under the Revolving Credit Facility to exceed the lesser of the Sublimit or
the Borrowing Base. If Dealer exceeds this limit, Dealer will immediately pay the
excess to CPC upon CPC’s demand. CPC may apply payments received from Dealer under
this subsection to the Obligations (as defined below) in the order and the manner as
CPC, in its discretion, may determine.

(ii) Borrowing Base. “Borrowing Base” means the sum of: (A) 85% of the
balance due on Eligible Accounts (as defined in Section 24.4, below); plus
(B) 100% of the value of all Financed Inventory subject to the Extended Payment Due
Date. In determining the value of Financed Inventory to be included in the Borrowing
Base, CPC will use the lowest of (X) Dealer’s cost, or (Y) Dealer’s estimated market
value.

	 	(c)	 	Availability Period. The Revolving Credit Facility is available
between the date of this Agreement and December 27th, 2007, or such earlier date as
the availability may terminate as provided in this Agreement (the “Revolving
Credit Facility Expiration Date”) in the absence of a Default. No later than
90 days prior to the Revolving Credit Facility Expiration Date (or prior to the
applicable anniversary of the Revolving Credit Facility Expiration Date occurring
within any successive Renewal Period), Dealer may deliver a written request for
renewal for the Revolving Credit Facility (a “Renewal Request”) for a
period limited to 2 years (a “Renewal Period”). Within 30 days from CPC’s
receipt of the Renewal Request, CPC may notify Dealer in writing of its
determination regarding such renewal request which determination will be made by
CPC in its sole discretion. Should no written notification be issued to Dealer by
CPC within the described 30 day period, the line of credit provided hereunder will
terminate on the Revolving Credit Facility Expiration Date, or applicable
anniversary thereof.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Conditions to Availability of Revolving Credit. In addition to the
items required to be delivered to CPC under Section 5, “Covenants” and Section 7,
“Financial Information and Certificates” of this Agreement, Dealer shall promptly
deliver the following to CPC at such times as may be requested by CPC:

	 	(i)	 	a Borrowing Certificate, in form and detail satisfactory to CPC,
setting forth the Eligible Accounts and all Financed Inventory, including
Financed Inventory on which the requested extension of credit is to
be based.

	 
	 	(ii)	 	copies of Dealer’s accounts receivable aging, a listing of all
Financed Inventory and copies of Dealer’s accounts payable
aging.

	 	(e)	 	Interest Rate. The interest rate applicable to loans extended under
the Revolving Credit Facility is the Extended Payment Rate.
	 
	 	(f)	 	Repayment Terms.

       (i) Dealer will pay interest on any outstanding Indebtedness under the Revolving
Credit Facility each month, commencing January, 2006, as billed by CPC.

       (ii) Dealer will repay (A) all principal borrowed under the Revolving Credit
Facility no later than the Payment Due Date, and (B) in full, all principal and any
unpaid interest or other charges outstanding under this Revolving Credit Facility no
later than the Revolving Credit Expiration Date.

       (iii) Dealer may prepay the loans advanced under the Revolving Credit Facility in
full or in part at any time. The prepayment will be applied to the most remote payment
of principal due under this Agreement.

     3. Security Interest. Dealer hereby grants to CPC a security interest in all of
the Collateral as security for all Indebtedness.

issued by any governmental or quasi-governmental (whether federal, state or local),

o. such other information as CPC from time to time reasonably requests.

     8. Payment Terms. With respect to Financed Inventory, Dealer will immediately
pay CPC the principal Indebtedness on the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:
(a) on the Payment Due Date, (b) on the Extended Payment Due Date (for Financed Inventory
subject to the Extended Payment Due Date) and (c) immediately when inventory is lost, stolen or
damaged (collectively, the “Loss Date”). All payments hereunder shall be made without
setoff or counterclaim, prior to 12:00 noon, Denver, Colorado time, on the Payment Due Date, the
Extended Payment Due Date or the Loss Date, as applicable, at the CPC Office in immediately
available funds or by electronic data interchange (“EDI”) (the “Due Date”). Any
payment received after the Due Date (with respect to Financed Inventory) or the

Page 5 of  23

 

Extended Payment Due Date (with respect to loans advanced under the Revolving Credit
Facility) shall be deemed received on the next Business Day, unless subsequently dishonored for
any reason. For purposes of calculating interest, payment shall be deemed to have been applied
by CPC against the principal of and/or interest on any Indebtedness on the Business Day, when
before 12:00 noon, good funds are received by CPC, whether such payment is made by check, wire,
EDI, ACH Debit or other means. CPC may, at any time in its sole discretion, change the terms of
any future financing and the date for repayment of future Indebtedness by giving Dealer written
notice specifying such change. Any third party discount, rebate, bonus or credit granted to
Dealer for any inventory will not reduce the Indebtedness Dealer owes CPC until CPC has received
payment therefore in cash. Dealer will: (A) pay CPC even if any inventory is defective or fails
to conform to any warranties extended by any third party; (B) not assert against CPC any claim
or defense Dealer has against any third party; and (C) indemnify and hold CPC harmless against
all claims and defenses asserted by any buyer of any inventory. Dealer waives all rights of
setoff Dealer may have against CPC.

     9. Calculation of Charges. The outstanding principal balance of the Indebtedness
and any other obligations arising hereunder (collectively, “Obligations”) shall bear
interest commencing on the day immediately succeeding any Due Date; each at the per annum rate
equal to the Prime Rate plus 5.0% (the “Default Rate”). Interest will be calculated for
the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days. Interest is due
and payable monthly in arrears immediately upon receipt of a billing statement from CPC for such
month. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of Default, interest shall
accrue at the Default Rate and shall be payable upon demand. CPC intends to strictly conform to
the usury laws. Regardless of any provision contained herein, CPC shall never be deemed to have
contracted for, charged, received, collected or applied as interest, any amount in excess of the
maximum amount allowable by applicable law. If CPC ever receives interest in excess of the
maximum amount permitted by law, CPC will apply such excess amount to the reduction of the
outstanding unpaid principal balance, and then will pay any excess to Dealer. In determining
whether the interest paid or payable exceeds the highest lawful rate, Dealer and CPC shall, to
the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (1) characterize any non-principal payment
(other than payments which are expressly designated as interest payments hereunder) as an
expense or fee rather than as interest, (2) exclude voluntary pre-payments and the effect
thereof, and (3) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire term of this
Agreement so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term.

     10. Billing Statement. Dealer agrees to pay the Indebtedness and interest in
accordance with this Agreement and the Documents.

     11. Default. The occurrence of one or more of the following events shall
constitute an event of default by Dealer (a “Default”): (a) Dealer shall fail to pay any
Indebtedness when due; (b) any representation made to CPC by Dealer, or by any guarantor,
surety, issuer of a letter of credit or any other person primarily or secondarily liable with
respect to any Indebtedness (collectively, “Guarantor”) shall not be true when made or
if Dealer or any Guarantor shall breach any covenant, warranty or agreement to or with CPC; (c)
Dealer or any Guarantor shall become insolvent or generally fail to pay its debts as they become
due or, if a business, shall cease to do business as a going concern; (d) any guaranty, letter
of credit, or other obligation of a guarantor, surety, issuer of a letter of credit or any other
person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any Indebtedness (collectively, “
Guarantor”) to CPC with respect to any Indebtedness or Collateral shall terminate or not be
renewed at least 30 days prior to its stated expiration or maturity; (e) any Guarantor shall
revoke, terminate or limit, or take any action purporting to revoke, terminate or limit, any
guaranty or other assurance of payment relating to any Indebtedness; (f) Dealer or any Guarantor
shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or commence a proceeding under any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, receivership, dissolution or liquidation
statute or similar law of any jurisdiction, or any such proceeding shall be commenced against it
or any of its property (an “Automatic Default”); (g) an attachment, sale or seizure
shall be issued or shall be executed against any assets of Dealer or of any Guarantor; (h)
Dealer shall lose, or shall be in default of, any franchise, license or right to deal in any
Financed Inventory; (i) Dealer or any Guarantor shall file any correction or termination
statement with respect to any financing statement filed by CPC in connection herewith; (j) a
material adverse change shall occur in the business, operations or condition (financial or
otherwise) of Dealer or any Guarantor or with respect to the Collateral; (k) any debt for
borrowed money of, or guaranteed by, Dealer shall become or any Guarantor becomes due by

acceleration by reason of a default; (l) CPC in good faith believes the prospect of payment
of any Indebtedness is impaired.

     12. Rights and Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of a Default, CPC
shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable law as
well as all the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement. CPC may terminate any
obligations it has under this Agreement and any outstanding credit approvals immediately and/or
declare any and all Indebtedness immediately due and payable without notice or demand. Dealer
waives notice of intent to accelerate, and of acceleration of Indebtedness. CPC may enter any
premises of Dealer, with or without process of law, without force, to search for, take
possession of, and remove the Collateral, or any part thereof. If CPC requests, Dealer shall
cease disposition of and shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to CPC, at Dealer’s
expense, at a convenient place or places designated by CPC. CPC may take possession of the
Collateral or any part thereof on Dealer’s premises at Dealer’s expense, and store said
Collateral upon Dealer’s premises pending sale or other disposition. Dealer agrees that the
sale of Inventory by CPC to a person who is liable to CPC under an agreement to repurchase
inventory (a “Repurchase Agreement”) shall not be deemed to be a transfer subject to UCC
§9-618(a) or any similar provision of any other applicable law, and Dealer waives any provision
of such laws to that effect. Dealer agrees that the repurchase of Inventory by a Vendor
pursuant to a Repurchase Agreement shall be deemed a commercially reasonable method of
disposition. Dealer shall be liable to CPC for any deficiency resulting from CPC’s disposition,
including without limitation a repurchase by a Vendor pursuant to a Repurchase Agreement,
regardless of any subsequent disposition thereof. Dealer is not a beneficiary of, and has no
right to require CPC to enforce, any Repurchase Agreement. Any notice of a disposition shall be
deemed reasonably and properly given if sent to Dealer at least 10 days before such disposition.
If Dealer fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, CPC may perform the
same in any form or manner CPC, in its discretion, deems necessary or desirable, and all monies
paid by CPC in connection therewith shall be additional Indebtedness and shall be immediately
due and payable without notice together with interest payable on demand at the Default Rate.
All of CPC’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative. At CPC’s request, or without request in
the event of an Automatic Default, Dealer shall pay all Vendor Credits to CPC as soon as the
same are received for application to Indebtedness. Dealer authorizes CPC to collect Vendor
Credits directly from Vendors and, upon request of CPC, shall instruct Vendors to pay CPC
directly. Dealer irrevocably waives any requirement that CPC retain possession and not dispose
of any Collateral until after an arbitration hearing, arbitration award, confirmation, trial or
final judgment. CPC’s election to extend or not extend credit to Dealer is solely at CPC’s
discretion and does not depend on the absence or existence of a Default.

     13. Power of Attorney. Dealer grants CPC an irrevocable power of attorney, as
Dealer’s attorney-in-fact, to: (a) execute or endorse on Dealer’s behalf any checks, financing
statements, instruments, and certificates of title and statements of origin pertaining to the
Collateral; (b) supply any omitted information and correct errors in any documents between CPC
and Dealer; initiate and resolve any insurance claim pertaining to the Collateral; and (c) do
anything to protect and preserve the Collateral and CPC’s rights and interest therein. Upon the
occurrence of a Default, Dealer grants CPC the additional power, as Dealer’s attorney-in-fact,
to change the address for delivery of mail and open mail for Dealer in connection with any
property of Dealer. This power of attorney and any other powers of attorney granted herein or
elsewhere by Dealer to CPC are irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

     14. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. Dealer agrees to pay all fees and expenses of
counsel to CPC and paralegals) in connection with the enforcement of the Documents and the
Loans, including, but not limited to (a) reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred upon an
Automatic Default, and (b) CPC’s standard wire transfer and check return fees, all as may be
established and changed by CPC from time to time. Without limitation of the foregoing, Dealer
acknowledges and agrees that CPC’s field audit and out of pocket expenses relating to field
audits shall be charged to Dealer. In addition, Dealer shall pay any and all stamp, transfer
and other taxes payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and
delivery of the Documents and agrees to hold CPC harmless from and against any and all
liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes.
If any suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against CPC, Dealer, to
the extent and in the manner directed by CPC, will resist and defend such suit or proceeding or
cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel approved by CPC. If Dealer shall fail to
do any act or thing which it has

Page 7 of  23

 

covenanted to do under this Agreement or any representation or warranty on the part of
Dealer contained in this Agreement shall be breached, CPC may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, after 10 days written notice having been sent to Dealer, do the same or cause it to
be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend its funds for such purpose; any and all
amounts so expended by CPC shall be repayable to CPC by Dealer immediately upon CPC’s demand
therefore, with interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate set forth in this
Agreement in effect from time to time during the period from and including the date funds are so
expended by CPC to the date of repayment, and any such amounts due and owing CPC shall be deemed
to be part of the Indebtedness secured hereunder. The obligations of Dealer under this Section
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the other obligations of
Dealer under the Documents.

     15. Information. Dealer irrevocably authorizes CPC to investigate and make
inquiries of former or current creditors or other persons (including obtaining personal credit
bureau reports) regarding or relating to Dealer (including, to the extent permitted by law, any
equity holders of Dealer). CPC may provide to any third parties (including, without limitation,
any Vendors to or suppliers or customers of Dealer) any financial, credit or other information
regarding Dealer that CPC may at any time possess, whether such information was supplied by
Dealer to CPC or otherwise obtained by CPC. Further, Dealer irrevocably authorizes and
instructs any third parties (including, without limitation, any Vendors to or suppliers or
customers of Dealer) to provide to CPC any credit, financial or other information regarding
Dealer that such third parties may at any time possess, whether such information was supplied by
Dealer to such third parties or otherwise obtained by such third parties.

     16. Dealer’s Claims Against Vendors. Dealer will not assert against CPC any
claim or defense Dealer may have against Vendors whether for breach of warranty,
misrepresentation, failure to ship, lack of authority, or otherwise, including without
limitation claims or defenses based upon charge backs, credit memos, rebates, price protection
payments or returns. Any such claims or defenses or other claims or defenses Dealer may have
against Vendors shall not affect Dealer’s liabilities or obligations to CPC.

     17. Terms and Termination. The term of this Agreement, unless sooner terminated
in accordance with this Agreement, shall be for a period of two years from the date of this
Agreement (the “Termination Date”), provided, however, that (a) this Agreement shall
automatically renew for one (1) year periods from year to year thereafter unless terminated or
at the end of any subsequent annual anniversary of the Termination Date by the Dealer upon at
least 90 days prior written notice; and (b) CPC may terminate this Agreement (i) immediately (A)
by written notice to Dealer if Dealer shall lose or relinquish any right to sell or deal in any
Financed Inventory or (B) upon a Default, or (ii) at any time by at least 60 days prior written
notice by CPC to Dealer, however where Dealer requests further time be provided within the 60
day notice period CPC will agree to an extension of 30 more days. Upon termination of this
Agreement, all Indebtedness owed to CPC shall become immediately due and payable without notice
or demand. Upon any termination, Dealer shall remain liable to CPC for all Indebtedness to CPC,
including without limitation interest, fees, charges and expenses arising prior to or after the
effective date of termination, and all of CPC’s rights and remedies and its security interest
shall continue until all Indebtedness to CPC is indefeasibly paid in full and all obligations of
Dealer are performed.

     18. Binding Effect. Dealer cannot assign its interest in this Agreement without
CPC’s prior written consent. CPC may assign or participate CPC’s interest, in whole or in part,
without Dealer’s consent. This Agreement will protect and bind CPC’s and Dealer’s respective
heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, as the case may be.

     19. Notices. Except as otherwise stated herein, all notices, arbitration claims,
responses, requests and documents will be sufficiently given or served if mailed or delivered:
(a) to Dealer, at the Chief Executive Office; and (b) to CPC, at 9785 Maroon Circle, Suite 110,
Englewood, CO 80112, Attention: General Counsel, or such other address as the parties may
hereafter specify in writing.

     20. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or its application is
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will not be impaired or affected and
will remain binding and enforceable.

     21. Receipt of Agreement. Dealer acknowledges that it has received a true and
complete copy of this Agreement. Dealer has read and understands this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, CPC may rely on any facsimile copy, electronic
data transmission, or electronic data storage

Page 8 of  23

 

of: this Agreement, any TS, billing statement, financing statement, authorization to
pre-file financing statements, invoice from a Vendor, financial statements or other reports,
each of which will be deemed an original, and the best evidence thereof for all purposes.

     22. Miscellaneous. Time is of the essence regarding Dealer’s performance of its
obligations to CPC. Dealer’s liability to CPC is direct and unconditional and will not be
affected by the release or nonperfection of any security interest granted hereunder. CPC may
refrain from or postpone enforcement of this Agreement or any other agreements between CPC and
Dealer without prejudice, and the failure to strictly enforce these agreements will not create a
course of dealing which waives, amends or modifies such agreements. The express terms of this
Agreement will not be modified by any course of dealing, usage of trade, or custom of trade
which may deviate from the terms hereof. If Dealer fails to pay any taxes, fees or other
Obligations which may impair CPC’s interest in the Collateral, or fails to keep any Collateral
insured, CPC may, but shall not be required to, pay such amounts. Such paid amounts will be:
(a) additional Indebtedness which Dealer owes to CPC, shall be subject to finance charges as
provided herein, and shall be secured by the Collateral; and (b) due and payable immediately in
full. Section titles used herein are for convenience only, and do not define or limit the
contents of any Section. This Agreement may be validly executed and delivered by fax or other
electronic transmission and in one or more multiple counterpart signature pages. This Agreement
shall be construed without presumption for or against any party who drafted all or any portion
of this Agreement.

     23. Limitation of Damages. CPC and Dealer agree that if there is any dispute
relating to or arising out of or otherwise relating in any respect to this Agreement, any
Collateral, any transactions or events described herein or contemplated hereby or otherwise
occurring, or any party’s actions or inactions in connection with any of the foregoing, the
aggrieved party shall not be entitled to exemplary or punitive or consequential damages.

     24. Definitions. Terms defined in this Agreement in the singular are to have a

25. BINDING ARBITRATION.

	 	(a)	 	Arbitrable Claims. Except as otherwise specified below, all
actions, disputes, claims and controversies under common law, statutory law or in
equity of any type or nature whatsoever, whether arising before or after the date
of this Agreement, and whether directly or indirectly relating to this Agreement,
the Documents and/or any amendments and addenda hereto, or the breach, invalidity
or termination hereof; (collectively the “Disputes”), will be subject to
and resolved by binding arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties
agree that either party may pursue claims against the other that do not exceed
Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) in the aggregate in a court of competent
jurisdiction. Service of arbitration claims shall be acceptable if made by U.S.
mail or overnight delivery to the address for the party described herein.

Page 11 of  23

 

	 	(b)	 	Administrative Body. All arbitration hereunder will be
conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of: (a) The American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration rules are currently found
at www.adr.org for AAA. All arbitrator(s) selected will be attorneys with at least
5 years secured transactions experience. A panel of 3 arbitrators shall hear all
claims exceeding One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), exclusive of interest, costs and
attorneys’ fees. The arbitrator(s) will decide if any inconsistency exists between
the rules of the applicable arbitral forum and the arbitration provisions contained
herein. If such inconsistency exists, the arbitration provisions contained herein
will control and supersede such rules. The arbitrator shall follow the terms of
this agreement and the applicable law, including without limitation, the
attorney-client privilege and the attorney work product doctrine.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Hearings. Each party hereby consents to a documentary hearing
for all arbitration claims, by submitting the dispute to the arbitrator(s) by
written briefs and affidavits, along with relevant documents. However, arbitration
claims will be submitted by way of an oral hearing, if any party requests an oral
hearing within forty (40) days after service of the claim, and that party remits
the appropriate deposit for AAA’s fees and arbitrator compensation within ten (10)
days of the arbitration association’s statement for payment of all fees and
arbitrator compensation relating to the oral hearing. Each party agrees that
failure to timely pay all fees and arbitrator compensation billed to the party
requesting the oral hearing will be deemed such party’s consent to submitting the
Dispute to the arbitrator on documents and such party’s waiver of its request for
an oral hearing. The site of all oral arbitration hearings will be in the Division
of the Federal Judicial District in which the arbitration association maintains a
regional office that is closest to Dealer.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Discovery. Discovery permitted in any arbitration proceeding
commenced hereunder is limited as follows. No later than 40 days after the filing
and service of a claim for arbitration, the parties in contested cases will
exchange detailed statements setting forth the facts supporting the claim(s) and
all defenses to be raised during the arbitration, and a list of all exhibits and
witnesses. No later than 21 days prior to the oral arbitration hearing, the
parties will exchange a final list of all exhibits and all witnesses, including any
designation of any expert witness(es) together with a summary of their testimony; a
copy of all documents and a detailed description of any property to be introduced
at the hearing. Under no circumstances will the use of interrogatories, requests
for admission, requests for the production of documents or the taking of
depositions be permitted. However, in the event of the designation of any expert
witness(es), the following will occur: (a) all information and documents relied
upon by the expert witness(es) will be delivered to the opposing party; (b) the
opposing party will be permitted to depose the expert witness(es); (c) the opposing
party will be permitted to designate rebuttal expert witness(es); and (d) the
arbitration hearing will be continued to the earliest possible date that enables
the foregoing limited discovery to be accomplished.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Exemplary or Consequential Damages. The arbitrator(s) will not
have the authority to award exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.
	 
	 	(f)	 	Confidentiality of Awards. All arbitration proceedings,
including testimony or evidence at hearings, will be kept confidential, although
any award or order rendered by the arbitrator(s) pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement may be confirmed as a judgment or order in any state or federal court of
competent jurisdiction within the federal judicial district which includes the
residence of the party against whom such award or order was entered. This
Agreement concerns transactions involving commerce among the several states. The
Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9 U.S.C. Sections 1 et seq., as amended
(“FAA”) will govern all arbitration(s) and confirmation proceedings
hereunder.
	 
	 	(g)	 	Prejudgment and Provisional Remedies. Nothing herein will be
construed to prevent CPC’s or Dealer’s use of bankruptcy, receivership, injunction,
repossession, replevin, claim and delivery, sequestration, seizure, attachment,
foreclosure, and/or any other prejudgment or provisional action or remedy relating
to any Collateral for any current or

Page 12 of  23

 

	 	 	 	future debt owed by either party to the other. Any such action or remedy will
not waive CPC’s or Dealer’s right to compel arbitration of any Dispute.
	 
	 	(h)	 	Attorneys’ Fees. If either Dealer or CPC brings any other
action for judicial relief with respect to any Dispute (other than those permitted
under Sections 25(a) or 25(g)), the party bringing such action will be liable for
and immediately pay all of the other party’s costs and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) incurred to stay or dismiss such action and remove or refer such
Dispute to arbitration. If either Dealer or CPC brings or appeals an action to
vacate or modify an arbitration award and such party does not prevail, such party
will pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other
party in defending such action. Additionally, in any proceeding between the
parties regarding this Agreement, the losing party will pay to the prevailing party
all reasonable expenses and costs, including attorneys’ fees incurred by the
prevailing party. A party will be considered the prevailing party if: (1) it
initiated the proceeding and substantially obtains the relief it sought, either
through arbitration award, judgment or the losing party’s voluntary action before
hearing or award; (2) the other party withdraws its action without substantially
obtaining the relief it sought; or (3) it did not initiate the litigation and an
award or judgment is entered for either party, but without substantially granting
the relief sought.
	 
	 	(i)	 	Limitations. Any arbitration proceeding must be instituted:
(1) with respect to any Dispute for the collection of any debt owed by either party
to the other, within 2 years after the date the last payment by or on behalf of the
payor was received and applied in respect of such debt by the payee; and (2) with
respect to any other Dispute, within two (2) years after the date the incident
giving rise thereto occurred, whether or not any damage was sustained or capable of
ascertainment or either party knew of such incident. Failure to institute an
arbitration proceeding within such period will constitute an absolute bar and
waiver to the institution of any proceeding, whether arbitration or a court
proceeding, with respect to such Dispute.
	 
	 	(j)	 	Survival After Termination. The agreement to arbitrate will
survive the termination of this Agreement.

     26. JURY TRIAL WAIVER; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. If this Agreement is found to be
not subject to arbitration, any legal proceeding with respect to any dispute will be tried in a
court of competent jurisdiction by a judge without a jury. Dealer and CPC waive any right to a
jury trial in any such proceeding. Similarly, if this Agreement or a particular dispute
hereunder is not subject to arbitration, Dealer hereby consents to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any local, state or federal court located within Colorado and waives any
objection which Dealer may have based on improper venue or forum non conveniens to the conduct
of any action or proceeding in any such court and waives personal service of any and all process
upon it, and consents that all such service of process be made by mail or messenger directed to
it in the same manner as provided for notices to Dealer in this Agreement, and that service so
made shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt or 3 days after the same
shall have been posted to Dealer or Dealer’s agent as set forth herein. Nothing contained in
this Section shall affect the right of CPC to serve legal process in any other manner permitted
by law or affect the right of CPC to bring any action or proceeding against Dealer or its
property in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Dealer waives, to the extent permitted by law,
any bond or surety or security upon such bond which might, but for this waiver, be required of
CPC.

     27. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in all respects in
accordance with, and governed by the internal laws (as opposed to conflicts of law provisions)
of the State of Colorado, except that (a) questions as to perfection of CPC’s security interest
and the effect of perfection or non-perfection and priority of CPC’s security interest shall be
governed by the law which would be applicable except for this Section, and (b) the provisions of
the FAA shall govern all arbitration proceedings hereunder.

     28. USA PATRIOT ACT NOTIFICATION. The following notification is provided
to Dealer pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the

Page 13 of  23

 

government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires
all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person
or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account,
loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for the
Dealer: When the Dealer opens an account, if the Dealer is not an individual a financial
institution will ask for the Dealer’s name, taxpayer identification number, business address,
and other information that will allow such financial institution to identify the Dealer. A
financial institution may also ask to see the Dealer’s legal organizational documents or other
identifying documents.

AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

          This Amendment is made to that certain Credit Agreement dated December 27th, 2005
(“Agreement”), between (“Dealer”) and Castle Pines Capital LLC, (“CPC”).

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CPC and Dealer agree that the following paragraphs are incorporated into
the Agreement as if fully and originally set forth therein:

     1. “Current Ratio. Dealer will at all times maintain on a consolidated basis a ratio
of current assets to Current Liabilities of at least 1.10:1.0.

          For purpose of this paragraph ‘Current Liabilities’ includes (a) all obligations
classified as current liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles, plus (b) all
principal amounts outstanding under revolving lines of credit, whether classified as current or
long-term, which are not already included under (a) above. This ratio will be calculated at the
end of each fiscal quarter, using fiscal year-to-date results on an annualized basis.”

     2. “Tangible Net Worth. Dealer will at all times maintain on a consolidated basis
tangible net worth equal to at least Eight Million Dollars ($8,000,000).

     For purpose of this paragraph: (i) ‘Tangible Net Worth’ means as of any date the sum
of Dealers’ (i) net worth as reflected on its last twelve-month consolidated fiscal financial
statements, plus (ii) net earnings since the end of such fiscal year, both after provision
for taxes and with Inventory determined on a first in, first out basis, plus (iii)
Subordinated Debt, minus the sum of Dealer’s (A) intangible assets, including, without
limitation, deposits, unamortized leasehold improvements, goodwill, deferred income taxes,
franchises, licenses, patents, trade names, copyrights, service marks, brand names, covenants not
to compete and any other asset which would be treated as an intangible under generally accepted
accounting principles, plus (B) prepaid expenses (however such item shall not include
prepaid inventory), plus (C) franchise fees, plus (D) notes, Accounts and other
amounts owed to it by any Guarantor, affiliate or employee of any Dealer plus (E) losses
since the end of such fiscal year, plus (F) interest in the cash surrender value of
officer’s or shareholder’s life insurance policies; and (ii) ‘Subordinated Debt’ means
liabilities subordinated to the Dealer’s obligations to CPC in a manner acceptable to CPC, using
CPC’s standard form. This covenant will be tested at the end of each fiscal quarter.”

     3. “Minimum Working Capital. Dealer will at all times maintain a minimum working
capital of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000.00). Working Capital shall be
defined as Current Assets minus Current Liabilities. Current Assets shall be defined as current
assets under generally accepted accounting principles. Current Liabilities includes (a) all
obligations classified as current liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles, plus
(b) all principal amounts outstanding under revolving lines of credit, whether classified as
current or long-term, which are not already included under (a) above. This ratio will be
calculated at the end of each I-Sector Corporation Accounting Period.”

     4. “Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth Ratio. Dealer will at all times maintain
on a consolidated basis a ratio of Total Liabilities (excluding liabilities subordinated to the
Dealer’s obligations to CPC in a manner acceptable to CPC, using CPC’s standard form) to Tangible
Net Worth not exceeding 6.00:1.00.

     For purpose of this paragraph: (i) ‘Total Liabilities’ means the sum of current
liabilities plus long term liabilities; and (ii) ‘Tangible Net Worth’ means as of any date
the sum of Dealers’ (i) net worth as reflected on its last twelve-month consolidated fiscal
financial statements, plus (ii) net earnings since the end of such fiscal year, both after
provision for taxes and with Inventory determined on a first in, first out basis, plus
(iii) Subordinated Debt, minus the sum of Dealer’s (A) intangible assets, including,
without limitation, deposits, unamortized leasehold improvements, goodwill, deferred income taxes,
franchises, licenses, patents, trade names, copyrights, service marks, brand names, covenants not
to compete and any other asset which would

Page 18 of  23

 

be treated as an intangible under generally accepted accounting principles, plus (B)
prepaid expenses (however such item shall not include prepaid inventory), plus (C)
franchise fees, plus (D) notes, Accounts and other amounts owed to it by any Guarantor,
affiliate or employee of any Dealer plus (E) losses since the end of such fiscal year,
plus (F) interest in the cash surrender value of officer’s or shareholder’s life insurance
policies. This ratio will be calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter, using fiscal
year-to-date results on an annualized basis.”

     Dealer waives notice of CPC’s acceptance of this addendum.

     All other terms and provisions of the Agreement, to the extent not inconsistent with the
foregoing, are ratifies and remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Dealer and CPC have executed this Amendment on this 27th day of December,
2005.

PAYDOWN AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

          This Amendment is made to that certain Credit Agreement entered into by and between Dealer and
Castle Pines Capital LLC (“CPC”) on December 27th, 2005, (“Agreement”).

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Dealer and CPC agree to amend the Agreement to provide as follows:
(capitalized terms shall have the same meaning as defined in the Agreement unless otherwise
indicated):

     Provided that no Indebtedness is outstanding which is subject to the Extended Payment Due
Date, Dealer will forward to CPC a Collateral Report (as defined below) by the 10th day of each
month for the period consisting of the immediately preceding month.

     Provided that Indebtedness is outstanding which is subject to the Extended Payment Due Date,
Dealer will forward to CPC a Collateral Report by Tuesday of each week for the period consisting of
the immediately preceding week.

     Regardless of the payment terms pertaining to any Collateral financed by CPC or anything
contained in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, if at the time of any determination, Dealer’s
total outstanding Indebtedness exceeds the Collateral Liquidation Value (as defined below), Dealer
will immediately pay CPC the sum of the following items: (i) Dealer’s total outstanding
Indebtedness, minus (ii) the Collateral Liquidation Value.

     The term “Collateral Liquidation Value” is defined herein to mean the sum of: (i) one
hundred percent (100%) of the total aggregate wholesale invoice price of all of Dealer’s Financed
Inventory that is unsold and in Dealer’s possession and control; plus (ii) eighty five
percent (85%) of the total outstanding balance of Dealer’s Eligible Accounts, minus (iii)
Third Party Debt.

     The term “Collateral Report” is defined herein to mean a report compiled by Dealer
specifying the following information: (a) the total aggregate wholesale invoice price of all of
Dealer’s Financed Inventory that is unsold and in Dealer’s possession and control as of the date of
such Report; and (b) the total outstanding balance owed to Dealer on Dealer’s Eligible Accounts as
of the date of such Report, in each case to the extent CPC has a first priority, fully perfected
security interest therein.

Page 21 of  23

 

     The term “Third Party Debt” is defined herein to mean the principal portion owed to
third party lenders having a security interest in Dealer’s assets which is senior in priority to
the security interest of CPC.

     If Dealer from time to time is required to make immediate payment to CPC upon review of a
Collateral Report or at any other time, Dealer agrees that acceptance of such payment by CPC shall
not be construed to have waived or amended the terms of its financing program.

     Dealer waives notice of CPC’s acceptance of this Amendment. All other terms as they appear in
the Agreement, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, are ratified and remain unchanged and
in full force and effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Dealer and CPC have executed this Paydown Amendment to Credit Agreement
this 27th day of December, 2005.
