Exhibit 10.1

SECOND AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT

This Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made effective March 26, 2009, by and between Pinnacle Data Systems, Inc. (“Borrower”), and KeyBank National Association, a national banking association (“Lender”).

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

A. On September 30, 2008, Lender made a loan to Borrower in the principal amount of up to $8,000,000 (the “Loan”) pursuant to an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Original Loan Agreement”), as amended by a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated December 24, 2008 (the “First Amendment to Loan Agreement”), and as further amended by this Amendment. The Original Loan Agreement, and the First Amendment to Loan Agreement, as further amended by this Amendment, are sometimes referred to hereinafter, collectively, as the “Loan Agreement.”

B. The Loan is evidenced by a Cognovit Promissory Note Demand Line of Credit dated December 24, 2008 (the “Existing Note”), in the original principal amount of $8,000,000.

C. Borrower has also granted Lender a security interest in all of Borrower’s personal property pursuant to a Security Agreement dated April 8, 2008 (the “Security Agreement”). The Loan Agreement, the Existing Note, the Security Agreement, and any other agreements between Lender and Borrower relating to the Loan are sometimes referred to hereinafter, collectively, as the “Loan Documents” and, individually, as a “Loan Document.” The terms defined in the Loan Agreement shall be used in this Amendment, and have the same meaning as defined in the Loan Agreement, unless a term is otherwise defined in this Amendment. To the extent that there are any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Amendment and the provisions of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, then the applicable provisions of this Amendment shall control and supercede the inconsistent provisions of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

D. Borrower and Lender desire to make certain amendments to the Loan Agreement and the Note. Accordingly, Lender and Borrower have agreed to enter into this Amendment.
