("Borrower"), whose address is 1130 Rainier Avenue South, Seattle, WA 98144, with a telefacsimile number of ###-###-#### provides the terms on which Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as follows: RECITALS A. Bank and Borrower are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated December 31, 2003 (as amended and together with all schedules made a part thereof, the "Original Agreement"), pursuant to which Bank extended to Borrower a term loan in the original principal amount of $3,000,000 ("Term Loan") and a $750,000 guidance line facility (which has terminated in accordance with its terms). B. Borrower has requested Bank to extend a new equipment term loan facility in the amount of $2,500,000 and a new guidance line facility in the amount of $1,500,000. C. Bank and Borrower desire in this Agreement (1) to amend and restate the Original Agreement in accordance with the provisions herein and (2) to set forth their agreement with respect to the credit facilities described herein. 1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERM ------------------------- Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term "financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms "including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without limitation," in this or any Loan Document. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Original Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained herein is intended to amend or impair any other agreement, instrument, statement, or certificate delivered in connection with the Original Agreement or the effect or efficacy thereof. All Loan Documents executed in connection with the Original Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and all references therein to "Loan and Security Agreement" shall henceforth refer to this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that all security agreements, pledge agreements, financing statements, and other Loan Documents executed in connection with the Original Agreement creating, evidencing or perfecting Bank's security interests in and liens against the Collateral, shall remain in full force and effect and shall secure all of Borrower's Obligations, as such Obligations may be amended or restated in this Agreement. Borrower agrees to execute such amendments to any such Loan Documents, or such amended and restated security agreements, as are deemed necessary by Bank to reflect the terms of this Agreement. 2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT ------------------------- 2.1 PROMISE TO PAY. Borrower promises to pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions. 2.1.1 TERM LOAN. (a) Term Loan. Bank made the Term Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Original Agreement. The interest rate and repayment terms of the Term Loan are set forth in Section 2.3.3 hereof. When repaid, the Term Loan may not be reborrowed. As of the Effective Date, the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan is $1,750,000.05. (b) Interest Rate. The Term Loan accrues interest on the outstanding principal balance at a per annum rate of 0.5 percentage point(s) above the Prime Rate. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. (c) Payments. On January 1, 2004, Borrower will pay Bank an amount equal to all accrued interest on the Term Loan. Commencing on February 1, 2004, Borrower will pay 36 equal monthly installments of principal of $83,333.33 plus accrued interest (the "Term Loan Payment"). Each Term Loan Payment is payable on the 1st of each month during the term of the loan. Borrower's final Term Loan Payment, due on the Term Loan Maturity Date, includes all outstanding Term Loan principal and accrued interest. Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit accounts including Account Number 3300398140 for Term Loan Payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will promptly notify Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a set-off. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest accrue. (d) Prepayment. Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the Term Loan prior to December 31, 2004 unless concurrently with such prepayment Borrower pays Bank an amount equal to 2 percent of the prepaid portion of the Term Loan. Borrower shall provide 3 Business Days' written notice to Bank prior to any such prepayment. All prepayments shall be applied first to accrued interest on the Term Loan and then to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity. 2.1.2 GUIDANCE LINE FACILITY Through the date that is 364 days after the Effective Date, (the "Guidance Line Maturity Date"), Borrower may use up to $1,500,000 (the "Guidance Line Facility") for the support of existing or the issuance of new standby letters of credit (the "Letters of Credit") and for Bank's cash management services, which may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit card, and check cashing services identified in various cash management services agreements related to such services (the "Cash Management Services"). Each Letter of Credit will have an expiry date of no later than 270 days after the Guidance Line Maturity Date, but Borrower's reimbursement obligation will be secured by cash on terms acceptable to Bank at any time after the Guidance Line Maturity Date. Any other Obligations outstanding under the Guidance Line Facility will be immediately due and payable on the Guidance Line Maturity Date. Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit and Cash Management Services as Bank may reasonably request. Borrower acknowledges that the guidance line facility provided under the Original Agreement has terminated. 2.1.3 COMMITTED EQUIPMENT LINE. (a) Equipment Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank agrees to lend to Borrower, from time to time prior to the Equipment Availability End Date, equipment advances (each an "Equipment Advance" and collectively the "Equipment Advances") in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Committed Equipment Line. When repaid, the Equipment Advances may not be re-borrowed. The proceeds of the Equipment Advances will be used solely to reimburse Borrower for the purchase of Eligible Equipment purchased within 120 days of the Funding Date for such Equipment Advance. Each Equipment Advance shall be considered a promissory note evidencing the amounts due hereunder for all purposes. Bank's obligation to lend under this Section 2.1.3 shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) the Equipment Availability End Date. For purposes of this Section, the minimum amount of each Equipment Advance is $250,000. Bank's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Committed Equipment Line will terminate if, in Bank's sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement. (b) Funding. To obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower will deliver to Bank a completed Payment/Advance Form signed by a Responsible Officer or his or her designee, copies of invoices for the Equipment to be financed with the proceeds of the Equipment Advance and such additional information as Bank may request at least five (5) Business Days before the proposed Funding Date. If Borrower satisfies the conditions of each Equipment Advance specified herein, Bank will disburse such Equipment Advance by internal transfer to Borrower's deposit account with Bank. Each Equipment Advance may not exceed 100% of the Original Stated Cost. Computer software, taxes, shipping charges, training and installation expenses related to the Eligible Equipment may constitute up to 25% of the aggregate Equipment Advances through and including such Funding Date. (d) Interest Rate. Equipment Advances accrue interest from the date of the Equipment Advance at the per annum rate of interest equal to 0.5 percentage points above the Prime Rate, determined by Bank as of the Funding Date for each Equipment Advance. After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. If any change in the law increases Bank's expenses or decreases its return from the Equipment Advances, Borrower will pay Bank upon request the amount of such increase or decrease. (e) Payments. With respect to each Equipment Advance, Borrower will make one payment of accrued interest on the first day of the month following the applicable Funding Date. Thereafter, Borrower will pay 36 equal installments of principal plus accrued interest, payable on the first day of each month. All unpaid principal and accrued interest for each Equipment Advance is due and payable on the three year anniversary of the first day of the month following the Funding Date for such Equipment Advance. Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit accounts including Account Number 3300398140 for principal and interest payments or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will promptly notify Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a set-off. Payments received after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional interest shall accrue. An Equipment Advance may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.1.3(f). (f) Prepayment. Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of an Equipment Advance prior to the one year anniversary of the Effective Date unless concurrently with such prepayment Borrower pays Bank an amount equal to 1 percent of the prepaid portion of the Equipment Advance. Borrower shall provide 30 Business Days' written notice to Bank prior to any such prepayment. All prepayments shall be applied first to accrued interest on the Equipment Advance and then to the outstanding principal balance of the Equipment Advance in the inverse order of maturity. On and after the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the outstanding principal balance of such Equipment Advance, provided Borrower provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Equipment Advance at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and pays, on the date of the prepayment all outstanding principal, all unpaid accrued interest to the date of the prepayment; and all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to this Agreement. Borrower shall provide 30 Business Days' written notice to Bank prior to any such prepayment. 2.2 FEES. Borrower will pay: (a) Facility Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of $2,500 for the Committed Equipment Line due on the Closing Date; and (b) Letter of Credit Fee: On the issuance of each Letter of Credit, a fully earned, non-refundable issuance fee in an amount equal to (i) 1.0 percent per annum of the face amount of the Letter of Credit plus (ii) Bank's customary fees and handling charges; and (c) Cash Management Services Fees: Bank's customary fees related to Cash Management Services; and (d) Bank Expenses.

Each Patent 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 that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party, except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 5.3 LITIGATION. Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower's Responsible Officers, threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which a likely adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 5.4 NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); (b) Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank; (c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable; (d) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies; (e) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; (f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, Patents, Copyrights, Mask Works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank's benefit; and (g) Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code. 9.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower's insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower's name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank's appointment as Borrower's attorney in fact, and all of Bank's rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates. 9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION. When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank's security interest in the funds and verify the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit. 9.4 BANK EXPENSES. If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons, Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank's waiver of any Event of Default. 9.5 BANK'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and the Code, it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral. 9.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank's delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given. 9.7 DEMAND WAIVER. Borrower waives demand, 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 held by Bank on which Borrower is liable. 10 NOTICES ------- All notices or demands by any party about this Agreement or any other related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by an overnight delivery service, by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telefacsimile to the addresses set forth at the beginning of this Agreement.

The obligations of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank will survive until all statutes of limitations for actions that may be brought against Bank have run. 12.8 CONFIDENTIALITY.
