Borrower shall also pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof. 2.1.1 REVOLVING ADVANCES. (a) ADVANCE AMOUNTS. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base, and each Lender shall make Advances up to its Pro Rata Share of the requested Advance, provided no Lender shall at any time be required to make Advances in excess of the maximum commitment set forth below its signature to this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1.1 may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Advances under this Section 2.1.1 shall be immediately due and payable. -6- (b) BORROWING PROCEDURE. Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower will notify Agent by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on the Business Day that an Advance is to be made,. Each such notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form of EXHIBIT B hereto. Agent is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer. Agent shall be entitled to rely on any telephonic notice given by a person who Agent reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Agent harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Agent as a result of such reliance. Agent will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section 2.1.1 to Borrower's deposit account, as specified by Borrower. (c) ADVANCES. The outstanding principal balance of each Advance shall bear interest until principal is due (computed daily on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed), at a floating rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 4%. Borrower shall pay interest on each Advance on the first day of each month for so long as any Advances are outstanding. All Advances shall be due and payable on the Revolving Maturity Date. (d) OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT OF THE ADVANCES. Borrower may at any time prepay any Advance in whole or in part, without penalty or premium. (e) LENDERS DISBURSEMENT. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Advance that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Advance, Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to Agent on the date of such Advance in accordance with this Section and Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to Agent, such Lender and Borrower severally agree to repay to Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to Agent, at (i) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to such Advance and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate, as such rate is quoted in The Wall Street Journal on such date. If such Lender shall repay to Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Advance for purposes of this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to make available its Pro Rata Share of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder, to make available its Pro Rata Share of such Advance on the date of such Advance, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available its Pro Rata Share of any Advance on the date of any Advance. (f) REVOLVING NOTES. The Advances made by Lenders pursuant hereto shall be evidenced by the Revolving Notes, payable to the order of each Lender and representing the obligation of Borrower to pay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances made by that Lender, with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.2. Each Lender is hereby authorized to record in its books and records and on any schedule annexed to its Revolving Note, the date and amount of each Advance made by that Lender, and the date and amount of each payment of principal thereof, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded; provided that failure by any Lender to effect such recordation shall not affect Borrower's obligations hereunder. Prior to the transfer of a Revolving Note, the transferring Lender shall record such information on any schedule annexed to and forming a part of such Revolving Note. 2.2 INTEREST RATES, PAYMENTS, AND CALCULATIONS. (a) INTEREST RATES. Except as set forth in Section 2.2(b), the Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus four percent (4%). (b) DEFAULT RATE. All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to 18% per annum. (c) PAYMENTS. Agent shall, at its option, charge interest, all Agent Expenses, and all Periodic Payments against any of Borrower's deposit accounts or against the Revolving Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the -7- Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. All payments shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes or other charges imposed by any jurisdiction. (d) COMPUTATION. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. 2.3 LOCKBOX. Within 15 days of the Closing Date, Borrower shall cause all account debtors to pay amounts owing to Borrower to a lockbox address over which Agent shall have sole control. Agent shall have the right to open mail and collect payments made to such lockbox and credit items to Borrower's account. Borrower shall enter into such lockbox agreement as Agent may reasonably request. Before the lockbox is in place, Borrower shall deliver all payments received by Borrower directly to Agent, together with a cash receipts journal. 2.4 CREDITING PAYMENTS. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the receipt by Agent of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Agent after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension. 2.5 PAYMENTS PRO RATA. Except as provided in Section 2.4, Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of Borrower in respect of any Obligations of the Borrower hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to Lenders pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received. 2.6 SHARING OF PAYMENTS. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it in excess of its Pro Rata Share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, then such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section or any other provision of this Agreement may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right to set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. 2.7 FEES.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if at any time the Credit Extensions are secured by real property, no Lender shall exercise a right of setoff, Lenderer's lien or counterclaim or take any court or administrative action to enforce any provision of the Credit Documents if such action would constitute an "action" within the meaning of Section 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure without obtaining the prior consent of Agent and the other Lender, and any attempted exercise by any Lender of any such action without first obtaining such consent shall be null and void. The provisions of the preceding sentence are solely for the benefit of the Lenders and Borrower shall have no rights therein. 9.5 AGENT AND LENDER EXPENSES.

Any amounts so paid or deposited by Agent shall constitute Agent Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Agent shall not constitute an agreement by Agent to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Agent of any Event of Default under this Agreement. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall reimburse each Lender, upon demand, for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in connection with any of the Loan Documents. -16- 9.6 AGENT'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL.

Agent's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Agent shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Agent of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Agent of any Event of Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Agent shall constitute a waiver,-election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Agent shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Agent and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. 9.8 DEMAND; PROTEST. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Agent on which Borrower may in any way be liable. 10.
