FORBEARANCE AND SECOND AMENDMENT

TO

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

This FORBEARANCE AND SECOND AMENDMENT to Loan and Security Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of November 25, 2013, by and between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”) and AXESSTEL, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”).

RECITALS

A. Bank and Borrower have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September 25, 2012, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement by and between Bank and Borrower dated as of March 27, 2013 (as the same may from time to time be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Agreement”). Bank has extended credit to Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.

B. Borrower acknowledges that Borrower is currently in default of the Loan Agreement for failing to comply with certain provisions of the Loan Agreement as set forth on Schedule A hereto as of the time periods identified on said Schedule A and such failure to comply constitutes Events of Default (each of the defaults set forth, collectively, the “Existing Defaults”).

C. Borrower has requested that Bank forbear from exercising its rights and remedies against Borrower during the Forbearance Period (as defined in Section 2.1 below). Although Bank is under no obligation to do so, Bank is willing to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies against Borrower through the Forbearance Period on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, so long as Borrower complies with the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

D. Borrower has further requested that Bank amend the Loan Agreement to make certain other revisions to the Loan Agreement as more fully set forth herein. Bank has agreed to so amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2. Forbearance.

2.1 Forbearance Period. Subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, Bank shall forbear from filing any legal action or instituting or enforcing any rights and remedies it may have against Borrower from the Forbearance Effective Date (as defined in Section 10) until the date (the “Forbearance Termination Date”) which is the earliest to occur of (a) December 20, 2013, (b) the failure after the date hereof of Borrower to comply with any of the terms or undertakings of this Agreement, (c) the occurrence after the date hereof of any Event of Default (other than the Existing Defaults), or (d) the date that Borrower joins in, assists, cooperates, or participates as an adverse party or adverse witness in any suit or other proceeding against Bank relating to the Obligations in connection with or related to any of the transactions contemplated by any of the other Loan Documents. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement does not constitute a waiver or release by Bank of any Obligations or of any existing Event of Default other than the Existing Defaults or Event of Default which may arise in the future after the date of execution of this Agreement. If Borrower does not comply with the terms of this Agreement, Bank shall have no further obligations under this Agreement and shall be permitted to exercise at such time any rights and remedies against Borrower as it deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Borrower understands that Bank has made no commitment and is under no obligation whatsoever to grant any additional extensions of time at the end of the Forbearance Period. The time period between the Forbearance Effective Date and the Forbearance Termination Date is referred to herein as the “Forbearance Period.”

3. Amendments to Loan Agreement/Consent.

3.1 Borrower hereby agrees to pay to Bank a forbearance fee equal to Thirty Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) on the earlier of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date or (ii) the date the Term Loan is repaid in full, whether by prepayment or acceleration and Borrower hereby agrees such fee is fully earned as of the date hereof.

Borrower agrees that the failure to comply with the foregoing requirements shall be an immediate Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and upon the occurrence thereof the Forbearance Period shall immediately terminated.

3.3 Borrower hereby agree that Bank reserves the right to cause all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan to accrue interest at the Default Rate pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1.2(e) of the Loan Agreement.

5.6 The execution and delivery by Borrower of this Agreement and the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement do not require any order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by any governmental or public body or authority, or subdivision thereof, binding on either Borrower, except as already has been obtained or made; and

5.7 This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and is the binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,

7. Release by Borrower.

7.1 FOR GOOD AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, Borrower hereby forever relieves, releases, and discharges Bank and its present or former employees, officers, directors, agents, representatives, attorneys, and each of them, from any and all claims, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, promises, acts, agreements, costs and expenses, actions and causes of action, of every type, kind, nature, description or character whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, absolute or contingent, arising out of or in any manner whatsoever connected with or related to facts, circumstances, issues, controversies or claims existing or arising from the beginning of time through and including the date of execution of this Agreement (collectively “Released Claims”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Released Claims shall include any and all liabilities or claims arising out of or in any manner whatsoever connected with or related to the Loan Documents, the Recitals hereto, any instruments, agreements or documents executed in connection with any of the foregoing or the origination, negotiation, administration, servicing and/or enforcement of any of the foregoing.

7.2 In furtherance of this release, Borrower expressly acknowledges and waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides as follows:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.” (Emphasis added.)

7.3 By entering into this release, Borrower recognizes that no facts or representations are ever absolutely certain and it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those which it presently knows or believes to be true, but that it is the intention of Borrower hereby to fully, finally and forever settle and release all matters, disputes and differences, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected; accordingly, if Borrower should subsequently discover that any fact that it relied upon in entering into this release was untrue, or that any understanding of the facts was incorrect, Borrower

shall not be entitled to set aside this release by reason thereof, regardless of any claim of mistake of fact or law or any other circumstances whatsoever. Borrower acknowledges that it is not relying upon and has not relied upon any representation or statement made by Bank with respect to the facts underlying this release or with regard to any of such party’s rights or asserted rights.

7.4 This release may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and/or as a cross-complaint or counterclaim against any action, suit, or other proceeding that may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of this release. Borrower acknowledges that the release contained herein constitutes a material inducement to Bank to enter into this Agreement, and that Bank would not have done so but for Bank’s expectation that such release is valid and enforceable in all events.

7.5 Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank, and Bank is relying thereon, as follows:

(a) Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, neither Bank nor any agent, employee or representative of Bank has made any statement or representation to Borrower regarding any fact relied upon by Borrower in entering into this Agreement.

(b) Borrower has made such investigation of the facts pertaining to this Agreement and all of the matters appertaining thereto, as it deems necessary.

(c) The terms of this Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital.

(d) This Agreement has been carefully read by Borrower, the contents hereof are known and understood by Borrower, and this Agreement is signed freely, and without duress, by Borrower.

(e) Borrower represents and warrants that it is the sole and lawful owner of all right, title and interest in and to every claim and every other matter which it releases herein, and that it has not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or transfer, to any person, firm or entity any claims or other matters herein released. Borrower shall indemnify Bank, defend and hold it harmless from and against all claims based upon or arising in connection with prior assignments or purported assignments or transfers of any claims or matters released herein.

8. Integration. This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

10. Conditions to Effectiveness. The parties agree that the forbearance obligations of Bank herein shall be effective upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent, each in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, (the date of the satisfaction of such conditions precedent referred to herein as the “Forbearance Effective Date”): (a) the due execution and delivery to Bank of this Agreement by each party hereto and (b) the due execution and delivery to Bank of updated corporate borrowing resolutions.

11. Miscellaneous.

11.1 This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document under the Loan Agreement; the failure to comply with the covenants contained herein shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement; and all obligations included in this Agreement (including, without limitation, all obligations for the payment of principal, interest, fees, and other amounts and expenses) shall constitute obligations under the Loan Agreement and secured by the Collateral.

11.2 Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.

12. Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
