FINANCING OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. 2.1. REQUEST FOR ADVANCES. During the Facility Period, Borrower may offer accounts receivable to Bank and request that the Bank finance such accounts receivables, if there is not an Event of Default. Borrower will deliver an Invoice Transmittal for each accounts receivable it offers. Bank may rely on information on or with the Invoice Transmittal. 2.2. ACCEPTANCE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Bank is not obligated to finance any accounts receivable. Bank may approve any Account Debtor's credit before agreeing to finance any accounts receivable. When Bank agrees to finance a receivable, it will extend credit to Borrower in an amount up to the result of the Advance Rate multiplied by the face amount of the receivable (the "Advance"). Bank may, in its reasonable discretion, change the percentage of the Advance Rate for a particular receivable on a case by case basis. When Bank makes an Advance, the receivable becomes a "Financed Receivable." All representations and warranties in Section 6 must be true as of the date of the Invoice Transmittal and of the Advance and no Event of Default exists or would occur as a result of the Advance. The aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time may not exceed the Facility Amount. Although Bank's obligation to make an Advance is discretionary in each instance, Bank acknowledges that (subject to verifications and other terms and conditions provided herein with respect to Account Debtors generally), it is the usual practice of Bank to finance accounts receivable due and owing from those Account Debtors that are Fortune 1000 type companies. 3. COLLECTIONS, FINANCE CHARGES, REMITTANCES AND FEES. The Obligations shall be subject to the following fees and Finance Charges. Fees and Finance Charges may, in Bank's discretion, be charged as an Advance, and shall thereafter accrue fees and Finance Charges as described below. Bank may, in its discretion, charge fees and Finance Charges to Borrower's deposit account maintained with Bank. 3.1. COLLECTIONS. Collections will be credited to the Financed Receivables Balance, but if there is an Event of Default, Bank may apply Collections to the Obligations in any order it chooses. If Bank receives a payment for both a Financed Receivable and a non Financed Receivable, the funds will first be applied to the Financed Receivable and, if there is not an Event of Default, the excess will be remitted to the Borrower, subject to Section 3.7. 3.2. FINANCE CHARGES. In computing Finance Charges on the Financed Receivables Balance, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of the Obligations three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Collections. On each Reconciliation Day, Borrower will pay a finance charge (the "Finance Charge"), which is equal to the greater of (i) the Applicable Rate divided by 360 multiplied by the number of days in the Reconciliation Period multiplied by the outstanding average daily Financed Receivable Balance for that Reconciliation Period, or (ii) the Minimum Finance Charge. 3.3. FACILITY FEE. A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000.00 ) is due upon execution of this Agreement. 3.4. COLLATERAL HANDLING FEE. On each Reconciliation Day, Borrower will pay to Bank a collateral handling fee, equal to 0.25% per month of the average daily Financed Receivable Balance outstanding during the applicable Reconciliation Period. After an Event of Default, the Collateral Handling Fee will increase an additional 0.25% effective immediately before the Event of Default. 3.5. ACCOUNTING. After each Reconciliation Period, Bank will provide an accounting of the transactions for that Reconciliation Period, including the amount of all Financed Receivables, all Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, Collateral Handling Fee and the Facility Fee. If Borrower does not object to the accounting in writing within thirty (30) days it is considered correct. All Finance Charges and other interest and fees are calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed. 3.6. DEDUCTIONS. Bank may deduct fees, Finance Charges and other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement from any Advances made or Collections received by Bank. -5- 3.7. ACCOUNT COLLECTION SERVICES. All Borrower's receivables are to be paid to the same address/or party and Borrower and Bank must agree on such address. If Bank collects all receivables and there is not an Event of Default or an event that with notice or lapse of time will be an Event of Default, within three (3) days of receipt of those collections, Bank will give Borrower the receivables collections it receives for receivables other than Financed Receivables and/or amount in excess of the amount for which Bank has made an Advance to Borrower, less any amount due to Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility Fee, other fees and expenses, or otherwise. This Section does not impose any affirmative duty on Bank to do any act other than to turn over amounts. All receivables and collections are Collateral and if an Event of Default occurs, Bank need not remit collections of Collateral and may apply them to the Obligations. 3.8. GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT. Borrower has paid to Bank a Good Faith Deposit of $20,000.00 to initiate Bank's due diligence review process. Any portion of the deposit not utilized to pay expenses will be applied to the Facility Fee. 4. REPAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. 4.1. REPAYMENT ON MATURITY. Borrower will repay each Advance on the earliest of: (a) payment of the Financed Receivable in respect which the Advance was made, (b) the Financed Receivable becomes an Ineligible Receivable, (c) when any Adjustment is made to the Financed Receivable (but only to the extent of the Adjustment if the Financed Receivable is not otherwise an Ineligible Receivable), or (d) the last day of the Facility Period (including any early termination). Each payment will also include all accrued Finance Charges on the Advance and all other amounts due hereunder. 4.2. REPAYMENT ON EVENT OF DEFAULT. When there is an Event of Default, Borrower will, if Bank demands (or, in an Event of Default under Section 9(B), immediately without notice or demand from Bank) repay all of the Advances. The demand may, at Bank's option, include the Advance for each Financed Receivable then outstanding and all accrued Finance Charges, the Early Termination Fee, Collateral Handling Fee, attorneys and professional fees, court costs and expenses, and any other Obligations. 4.3. EARLY TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the last day of the Facility Period as follows: (i) by Borrower, effective three Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time with notice to Borrower after the occurrence of an Event of Default, effective immediately. If this Agreement is terminated (A) by Bank in accordance with clause (ii) in the foregoing sentence or (B) by Borrower for any reason, Borrower shall pay to Bank a termination fee in an amount equal to Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000.00) (the "Early Termination Fee"). The Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable on the effective date of such termination and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank agrees to waive the Early Termination Fee if: (i) Bank agrees to refinance and redocument this Agreement under another division of the Bank (in its sole and exclusive discretion) prior to the last day of the Facility Period, or (ii) Borrower terminates this Agreement within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date, as a result of the Bank's failure to finance invoices requested by Borrower, or (iii) Borrower terminates this Agreement as a result of Bank's failure to consent to a transaction pursuant to Section 6.4(D). 5. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank and its successors and assigns it attorney-in-fact and authorizes Bank: (I) during an Event of Default, to: (A) sell, assign, transfer, pledge, compromise, or discharge all or any part of the Financed Receivables; (B) demand, collect, sue, and give releases to any Account Debtor for monies due and compromise, prosecute, or defend any action, claim, case or proceeding about the Financed -6- Receivables, including filing a claim or voting a claim in any bankruptcy case in Bank's or Borrower's name, as Bank chooses; and (C) prepare, file and sign Borrower's name on any notice, claim, assignment, demand, draft, or notice of or satisfaction of lien or mechanics' lien or similar document in connection with exercising the Bank's rights as contemplated by this Agreement; (II) regardless of whether there has been an Event of Default, to: (A) notify all Account Debtors to pay Bank directly; (B) receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Borrower; (C) endorse Borrower's name on check or other instruments (to the extent necessary to pay amounts owed pursuant to this Agreement); and (D) execute on Borrower's behalf any instruments, documents, financing statements to perfect Bank's interests in the Financed Receivables and Collateral and do all acts and things necessary to protect, preserve, and otherwise enforce the Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, as directed by the Bank. 6.

Any security interest shall be a first priority security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral may also be subject to Permitted Liens. Bank may place a "hold" on any deposit account pledged as Collateral. Except as disclosed to Bank on SCHEDULE 8, Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any material license or other material agreement with respect to which the Borrower is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower's interest in such license or agreement or any other property. Without prior consent from Bank, Borrower shall not enter into, or become bound by, any such license or agreement which is reasonably likely to have a material impact on Borrower's business or financial condition. Borrower shall take such reasonable steps as Bank reasonably requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for all such licenses or contract rights to be deemed "Collateral" and for Bank to have a security interest in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future. Borrower agrees that any disposition of the Collateral in violation of this Agreement, by either the Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of the Bank under the Massachusetts Uniform Commercial Code. If the Agreement is terminated, Bank's lien and security interest in the Collateral shall continue until Borrower fully satisfies its Obligations. Upon repayment of all Obligations and the termination of Bank's commitment to finance receivables hereunder, Bank shall promptly deliver to Borrower all appropriate termination statements and releases to evidence the termination of the Agreement and the security interest granted herein. If Borrower shall at any time during the term of this Agreement, acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower of the brief details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. 9.
