LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

2.1. Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

2.1.1.

Revolving Advances.

(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank shall make Advances to Borrower of at least $100,000 but in any event not to exceed the Availability Amount. Amounts borrowed hereunder may be repaid and, prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions precedent herein.

(b) Termination; Repayment. The Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Line Maturity Date, when the principal amount of all Advances, the unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations relating to the Revolving Line shall be immediately due and payable. In addition, at Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to terminate the Revolving Line without penalty or premium, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Bank of its election to terminate the Revolving Line at least fifteen (15) days prior to such termination, and (ii) pays, on the date of the termination (A) all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Revolving Line through the date of termination; (B) all remaining unpaid principal amount owing on the Revolving Line as of the termination date; and (C) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to the Revolving Line. In addition, at Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to permanently reduce the Revolving Line in part from time to time in minimum increments of $1,000,000, without penalty or premium, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Bank of its election to so reduce the Revolving Line at least fifteen (15) days prior to such reduction, and (ii) pays, on the date of the reduction (A) the amount, if any, by which the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding plus the Dollar Equivalent amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit) plus an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Reserve exceed the Revolving Line as so reduced; (B) all accrued and unpaid interest on such excess amount through the date of reduction; and (C) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to such excess amount.

2.1.2.

Letters of Credit Sublimit.

(a) As part of the Revolving Line, Bank shall issue or have issued Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or a Foreign Currency for Borrower’s account. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount utilized for the issuance of Letters of Credit shall at all times reduce the amount otherwise available for Advances under the Revolving Line. The Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit and any Letter of Credit Reserve) may not exceed Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000).

(b) If, on the Revolving Line Maturity Date (or the effective date of any termination of this Agreement), there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit. All Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s standard Application and Letter of Credit Agreement (the “Letter of Credit Application”). Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request. Borrower further agrees to be bound by the regulations and interpretations of the issuer of any Letters of Credit guarantied by Bank and opened for Borrower’s account or by Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued by Bank for Borrower’s account, and Borrower understands and agrees that Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto except for Bank’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(c) The obligation of Borrower to immediately reimburse Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letters of Credit, and the Letter of Credit Application.

(d) Borrower may request that Bank issue a Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency. If a demand for payment is made under any such Letter of Credit, Bank shall treat such demand as an Advance to Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount thereof (plus fees and charges in connection therewith such as wire, cable, SWIFT or similar charges).

(e) To guard against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency, Bank shall create a reserve (the “Letter of Credit Reserve”) under the Revolving Line in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve may be adjusted by Bank from time to time to account for fluctuations in the exchange rate. The availability of funds under the Revolving Line shall be reduced by the amount of such Letter of Credit Reserve for as long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding.

2.1.3.

Term Loan.

(a) Availability. Bank shall make one (1) term loan available to Borrower in an amount up to the Term Loan Amount on the Effective Date subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Repayment. Borrower shall repay the Term Loan in (i) sixteen (16) quarterly installments of principal as follows: (i) $1,000,000 from September 30, 2010 through June 30, 2011; $1,562,500 from September 30, 2011 through June 30, 2013; $1,875,000 from September 30, 2013 through March 31, 2014; and $2,125,000 on June 30, 2014, plus (ii) quarterly payments of accrued interest (the “Term Loan Payment”). Beginning on September 30, 2010, each Term Loan Payment shall be payable on the last day of each quarter. Borrower’s final Term Loan Payment, due on the Term Loan Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term Loan. Once repaid, the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.

(c) Prepayment. At Borrower’s option, so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, provided Borrower (a) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Term Loan at least fifteen (15) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and

unpaid interest with respect to the portion of the Term Loan being prepaid through the date the prepayment is made; (ii) the principal amount to be prepaid; (iii) a premium equal to the Make-Whole Premium, calculated with respect to the principal amount to be prepaid; and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to the Term Loan. Prepayments shall be applied to the Term Loan Payments in reverse chronological order.

2.2. Overadvances. If, at any time, the outstanding principal amount of any Advances exceeds the Revolving Line, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank in cash such excess.

2.3.

Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.

(a) Each Loan shall, at Borrower’s option, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be either in the form of a Prime Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan; provided that in no event shall Borrower maintain at any time LIBOR Loans having more than two (2) different Interest Periods.

(b) Interest; Payment. Subject to Section 2.3(c), each Loan bears interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made, continued or converted until paid in full at a floating rate per annum equal to (i) for Prime Rate Loans, the Prime Rate plus the applicable Prime Rate Margin and (ii) for LIBOR Loans, the LIBOR Rate plus the applicable LIBOR Rate Margin. On and after the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Loan outstanding on the date of occurrence of an Event of Default or acceleration of the Obligations, the effective amount of such LIBOR Loan shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at the rate applicable to Default Rate (calculated based on the Prime Rate). Pursuant to the terms hereof, interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, and in any event at least quarterly. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to this Agreement for the portion of any Loan so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof. All accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(c) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”) unless Bank otherwise elects from time to time in its sole discretion to impose a smaller increase. Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest provided in this Section 2.3(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank

(d) Prime Rate Loans. Each change in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Loans based on changes in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change and to the extent of such change.

(e) LIBOR Loans. The interest rate applicable to each LIBOR Loan shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.7(a) hereunder. Subject to Sections 3.7 and 3.8, such rate shall apply during the entire Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan, and interest calculated thereon shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

(f) Adjustment to Prime Rate Margin and LIBOR Rate Margin.

(i) The LIBOR Rate Margin applicable to LIBOR Loans and the Prime Rate Margin applicable to Prime Rate Loans shall be determined on the basis of Borrower’s most recent quarterly Maximum Funded Debt Ratio, as reported to Bank in Borrower’s financial statements provided pursuant to Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b), and such LIBOR Rate Margin and Prime Rate Margin shall be adjusted, as applicable, promptly upon each receipt of such financial statements; provided that the Maximum Funded Debt Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 1.5:1.00 (A) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (B) at the option of Bank if Borrower fails to deliver the financial statements required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b), during the period from the expiration of the time for delivery thereof until such financial statements are delivered.

(ii) Borrower hereby agrees that if at any time after receipt by Bank of any financial statements required to be delivered hereunder, Bank determines in its reasonable discretion that an unjustified reduction in the LIBOR Rate Margin and Prime Rate Margin, as applicable, has been granted to Borrower, Borrower shall pay upon demand therefor (and in no event later than the Business Day immediately succeeding the date such demand is made) an amount equal to the difference between (i) the interest amount that should have been paid by Borrower for such period but for such unjustified reduction in the LIBOR Rate Margin and Prime Rate Margin, as applicable, and (ii) the interest amount actually paid by Borrower for such period.

(g) Computation; 360-Day Year. In computing interest, the date of the making of any Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

(h) Debit of Accounts. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.

2.4. Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank:

(a) Good Faith Deposit. On or prior to the Effective Date, a fully earned, non-refundable good faith deposit equal to $25,000 (receipt of which Bank acknowledges as of the Effective Date). Bank will apply the good faith deposit to the Bank Expenses. Any amount of the good faith deposit not so applied to Bank Expenses will be applied to the commitment fee described in Section 2.4(a).

(b) Commitment Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee of $100,000 for the Revolving Line and $250,000 for the Term Loan, on the Effective Date; and

(c) Letter of Credit Fee. Bank’s customary fees and expenses for the issuance or renewal of Letters of Credit, upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, a letter of credit fee of one and a half percent (1.50%) per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of each Letter of Credit issued, each anniversary of the issuance during the term of such Letter of Credit, and upon the renewal of such Letter of Credit by Bank;

(d) Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee. A fee (the “Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee”), payable quarterly, in arrears, on a calendar year basis, in an amount equal to 0.375% per annum of the average unused portion of the Revolving Line, as determined by Bank. Borrower shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of any Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee previously earned by Bank pursuant to this Section notwithstanding any termination of the Agreement or the suspension or termination of Bank’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder;

(e) Make-Whole Premium. The Make-Whole Premium when due pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1.3(c); and

Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 p.m. 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 shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.

(a) Advances.

(i) Subject to the prior satisfaction of all other applicable conditions to the making of Loan set forth in this Agreement, each Advance shall be made upon Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to Bank in the form of a Notice of Borrowing, executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower or his or her designee or without instructions if the Loans are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance. Such Notice of Borrowing must be received by Bank prior to 12:00 p.m. Pacific time, (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Loans, and (ii) on the requested Funding Date, in the case of Prime Rate Loans, specifying: (1) the amount of the Loan; (2) the requested Funding Date; (3) whether the Advance is to be comprised of LIBOR Loans or Prime Rate Loans; and (4) the duration of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Loans included in such notice; provided that if the Notice of Borrowing shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any Loan comprised of LIBOR Loans, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.

(ii) The proceeds of all such Loans will then be made available to Borrower on the Funding Date by Bank by transfer to the Designated Deposit Account and, subsequently, by wire transfer to such other account as Borrower may instruct in the Notice of Borrowing.

3.6. Conversion and Continuation Elections

(a) So long as (i) no Event of Default exists; (ii) Borrower shall not have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement; and (iii) Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for Borrower’s requests for LIBOR Loans, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to Bank:

(i) elect to convert on any Business Day, Prime Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans;

(ii) elect to continue on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Loans maturing on such Interest Payment Date; or

(iii) elect to convert on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Loans maturing on such Interest Payment Date into Prime Rate Loans.

(b) Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 10 to be received by Bank prior to 12:00 p.m. Pacific time (i) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the Conversion Date or Continuation Date, if any Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans; and (ii) on the Conversion Date, if any Loans are to be converted into Prime Rate Loans, in each case specifying the:

(i) proposed Conversion Date or Continuation Date;

(ii) aggregate amount of the Loans to be converted or continued;

(iii) nature of the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(iv) duration of the requested Interest Period.

(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Loans, Borrower shall have timely failed to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Prime Rate Loans.

(d) Any LIBOR Loans shall, at Bank’s option, convert into Prime Rate Loans in the event that (i) an Event of Default shall exist, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Advances that are Prime Rate Loans which have been previously converted to LIBOR Loans, or the aggregate principal amount of existing Advances that are LIBOR Loans continued, as the case may be, at the beginning of an Interest Period shall at any time during such Interest Period exceed the Revolving Line. Borrower agrees to pay Bank, upon demand by Bank (or Bank may, at its option, charge the Designated Deposit Account or any other account Borrower maintains with Bank) any amounts required to compensate Bank for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost, or expense incurred by Bank, as a result of the conversion of LIBOR Loans to Prime Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.6(d).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Bank shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable LIBOR market to fund any LIBOR Loans, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Bank had purchased such deposits to fund the LIBOR Loans.

3.7. Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Loans. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Loans as to the matters covered:

(a) Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.

(b) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Loan, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loan on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Loans until such time as Bank notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written request by Bank (which request shall set forth the manner and method of computing such compensation), for all losses, expenses, unrealized gains and liabilities (including any interest paid by Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Loans, any loss, expense or liability incurred by Bank in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds, and, in the case of complete or partial principal payments or conversions of LIBOR Loans prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any amount by which (A) the additional interest which would have been payable on the amount so prepaid or converted had it not been paid or converted until the last day of the applicable Interest Period exceeds (B) the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the certificate of deposit markets, the offshore currency markets, or United States Treasury investment products, as the case may be, for a period starting on the date on which it was so paid or converted and ending on the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by Bank in its reasonable discretion), if any, that Bank may incur: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund LIBOR Loans due to impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.8(c) and 3.8(d)) a borrowing or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Loan does not occur on a date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, or (ii) if for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration) any complete or partial principal payment or any conversion of any of Borrower’s LIBOR Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan. Bank’s determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to Bank under this Section 3.7 and under Section 3.8 shall be made as though Bank had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.7 and under Section 3.8.

(e) LIBOR Loans After Default. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have a Loan be made or continued as, or converted to, a LIBOR Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for such Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 3.7(c), any Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a requested conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall, at Bank’s option, be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower and be deemed a request to convert or continue Loans referred to therein as Prime Rate Loans.

3.8. Additional Requirements/Provisions Regarding LIBOR Loans.

(a) Borrower shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any LIBOR Loans relating thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank under this Agreement in respect of any LIBOR Loans (other than changes which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office);

(ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, or other liabilities of Bank (including any LIBOR Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR); or

(iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the Effective Date which will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.8(a) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and

amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section 3.8(a). Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 3.8(a) of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make LIBOR Loans, of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of LIBOR Loans, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) If Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or entity controlling Bank (a “Parent”) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within five (5) days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction. A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.8(b) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) If, at any time, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that (i) the amount of LIBOR Loans for periods equal to the corresponding Interest Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR Loans, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. Upon the giving of such notice, Bank’s obligation to make the LIBOR Loans shall terminate; provided, however, (i) LIBOR Loans shall not terminate if Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Loans; and (ii) provided that existing LIBOR Loans shall continue in full force and effect.

(d) If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loans, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall either convert any outstanding LIBOR Loans into or continue any outstanding LIBOR Loans as Prime Rate Loans or prepay the LIBOR Loans in full with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts then due and payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.7(c)(ii)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by Bank as described above relates to a LIBOR Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.7(c)(ii), to (i) rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such rescission on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above, or (ii) modify such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation to obtain a Prime Rate Loan or by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such modification on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above.

CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

4.1. Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.

4.2. Priority of Security Interest. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien under this Agreement) in the Collateral (except for (i) Borrower’s deposit accounts to the extent provided in Sections 3.3(b) and 3.3(f) and Borrower’s Bank of America disbursements account no. 1459060201 for so long as Bank of America refuses to enter into a control agreement with respect to such account, (ii) motor vehicles with aggregate value not in excess of $50,000, (iii) money, and (iv) policies of insurance). If Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower of the general 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 reasonably satisfactory to Bank.

If this Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

4.3. Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or any other Person, not permitted hereby shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code. Such financing statements may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in Bank’s discretion.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

5.1. Due Organization, Authorization; Power and Authority. Borrower is duly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business. In connection with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered to Bank a completed certificate signed by Borrower, entitled “Perfection Certificate”. Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); (e) except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete in all material respects (it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Effective Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement). Bank hereby agrees that the Perfection Certificate shall be deemed to be updated to reflect information provided in any notice delivered by Borrower to Bank pursuant to Section 7.2 below. If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of such occurrence and provide Bank with Borrower’s organizational identification number.

The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect) or are being obtained pursuant to Section 6.1(b)) or (v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.

5.2. Collateral. Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts with Bank, the deposit accounts, if any,

described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith, or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein (and upon delivery of such notice and taking such action, the Perfection Certificate will be deemed to be updated with the information contained in such notice). The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.

The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate and updated pursuant to Section 7.2. None of the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate or as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2 (other than immaterial amounts of Collateral used by employees of Borrower at off-site locations).

All Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects.

Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property which it owns or purports to own except for (a) non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business, (b) over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public, (c) Intellectual Property licensed by vendors to Borrower with respect to the display of products on Borrower’s website; and (d) material Intellectual Property licensed to Borrower and noted on the Perfection Certificate. Each Patent which it owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which Borrower owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property that Borrower owns or purports to own violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.

Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted License.

5.3. Litigation. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate (as the same may be updated from time to time subject to Bank’s approval), there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Responsible Officers, threatened in writing by or against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving more than, individually or in the aggregate, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000).

5.4. Financial Statements; Financial Condition. All consolidated financial statements for USAPN and its Subsidiaries delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects USAPN’s consolidated financial condition and USAPN’s consolidated results of operations. There has not been any material deterioration in USAPN’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Bank.

5.5. Solvency. The fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

5.6. Regulatory Compliance. Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets have been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted except where failure to obtain or make such consents, declarations, filings or notices would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.

5.7. Subsidiaries; Investments. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments.

5.8. Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. Borrower has timely filed or has obtained extensions for filing all required tax returns and reports, except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, and Borrower has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower. Borrower may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the governmental authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien”. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

5.9. Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions solely for acquisitions permitted hereunder, as working capital, and to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.

5.10. Full Disclosure. No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results). As of the date hereof, (i) the representations and warranties of USAPN and Go Fido contained in the Whitney Stock Purchase Documentation are true and correct in all material respects and all conditions to the consummation of the Whitney Stock Purchase set forth in the Whitney Stock Purchase Documentation have been satisfied and (ii) to the best knowledge of USAPN and Go Fido, the representations and warranties of ASAP, Whitney, and Value contained in the Whitney Stock Purchase Documentation are true and correct in all material respects. There is no fact known to any Borrower that could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Bank for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.

5.11. Certain Documents. Borrower has delivered to Bank a complete and correct copy of the Whitney Stock Purchase Documentation, including any amendments, supplements or modifications with respect to any of the foregoing.

5.12. Definition of “Knowledge.” For purposes of the Loan Documents, whenever a representation or warranty is made to Borrower’s knowledge or awareness, to the “best of” Borrower’s knowledge, or with a similar qualification, knowledge or awareness means the actual knowledge, after reasonable investigation, of the Responsible Officers.

(b) If Borrower (i) obtains any Patent, registered Trademark, registered Copyright, registered mask work, or any pending application for any of the foregoing, whether as owner, licensee or otherwise, or (ii) applies for any Patent or the registration of any Trademark, then Borrower shall within ten (10) days provide written notice thereof to Bank and shall execute such intellectual property security agreements and other documents and take such other actions as Bank shall request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in such property. If Borrower decides to register any Copyrights or mask works in the United States Copyright Office, Borrower shall: (x) provide Bank with at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intent to register such Copyrights or mask works together with a copy of the application it intends to file with the United States Copyright Office (excluding exhibits thereto); (y) execute an intellectual property security agreement and such other documents and take such other actions as Bank may request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in the Copyrights or mask works intended to be registered with the United States Copyright Office; and (z) record such intellectual property security agreement with the United States Copyright Office contemporaneously with filing the Copyright or mask work application(s) with the United States Copyright Office.

(c) Provide written notice to Bank within ten (10) days of entering or becoming bound by any Restricted License (other than over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public).

6.9. Litigation Cooperation. From the date hereof and continuing through the termination of this Agreement, make available to Bank, without expense to Bank, Borrower and its officers, employees and agents and Borrower’s books and records, to the extent that Bank may deem them reasonably necessary to prosecute or defend any third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against Bank with respect to any Collateral or relating to Borrower.

6.10. Reserved.

6.11. Reserved.

6.12. Access to Collateral; Books and Records. Allow Bank, or its agents, at reasonable times, on two (2) Business Day’s notice (provided no notice is required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to inspect the Collateral and audit and copy Borrower’s Books. Such inspections or audits shall be conducted no more often than once every twelve (12) months unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The foregoing inspections and audits shall be at Borrower’s expense, and the charge therefor shall be $850 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent Bank’s then-current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. In the event Borrower and Bank schedule an audit more than ten (10) days in advance, and Borrower cancels or seeks to reschedule the audit with less than ten (10) days written notice to Bank, then (without limiting any of Bank’s rights or remedies), Borrower shall pay Bank a fee of $1,000 plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank to compensate Bank for the anticipated costs and expenses of the cancellation or rescheduling.

6.13. Formation or Acquisition of Subsidiaries. At the time that Borrower forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Effective Date, Borrower shall (a) cause such new Subsidiary to provide to Bank a joinder to the Loan Agreement to cause such Subsidiary to become a co-borrower hereunder, together with such appropriate financing statements and/or Control Agreements, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank (including being sufficient to grant Bank a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary), (b) provide to Bank appropriate certificates and powers and financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new

Subsidiary, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, and (c) provide to Bank all other documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, including one or more opinions of counsel satisfactory to Bank (provided that opinions of counsel shall not be required in the case of newly formed Subsidiaries or acquired Subsidiaries where the purchase price is less than $1,000,000), which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above; provided, that, if a Subsidiary that is so formed or acquired is a Foreign Subsidiary and if Administrative Borrower can reasonably demonstrate to Bank that causing such Foreign Subsidiary to become a co-borrower hereunder, the granting of a Lien in the assets of such Foreign Subsidiary, or the pledge of more than 65% of the voting power of all classes of capital stock of such Foreign Subsidiary would result in a material increase in the tax liability of Borrower (with respect to an acquired Foreign Subsidiary, based on the amount of pre-tax income at the time of such acquisition and the amount of projected pre-tax income), then Borrower shall not be required to cause such Foreign Subsidiary to become a co-borrower hereunder or to grant a Lien in the assets of such Foreign Subsidiary and such pledge (or other appropriate security document) shall be limited to 65% of the voting power of all classes of capital stock of such Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote. Any document, agreement, or instrument executed or issued pursuant to this Section 6.13 shall be a Loan Document.

6.14. Further Assurances. Execute any further instruments and take further action as Bank reasonably requests to perfect or continue Bank’s Lien in the Collateral or to effect the purposes of this Agreement.

NEGATIVE COVENANTS

Borrower shall not do any of the following without Bank’s prior written consent:

7.1. Dispositions. Convey, sell, lease, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), or permit any of its Subsidiaries to Transfer, all or any part of its business or property, except for:

(e) Transfers of property to the extent such property is exchanged for credit against, or proceeds are promptly applied to, the purchase price of other property used or useful in the business of Borrower or its Subsidiaries;

7.2. Changes in Business; Change in Control; Jurisdiction of Formation. Engage in any material line of business other than those lines of business conducted by Borrower and its Subsidiaries on the date hereof and any businesses reasonably related, complementary or incidental thereto or reasonable extensions thereof; or permit or suffer any Change in Control. Borrower will not, without prior written notice to Bank: (i) change its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) change its organizational structure or type, or (iii) change its legal name.

Bank agrees not to deliver a notice to a bailee purporting to exercise dominion or control over any Collateral or any other similar direction or instruction under any bailee agreement with Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder.

7.3. Mergers or Acquisitions. Merge or consolidate, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to merge or consolidate, with any Person, or acquire, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to acquire, all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of a Person, except where no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such action during the term of this Agreement and:

(a) the Whitney Stock Purchase;

(b) any Subsidiary may merge or consolidate with (i) Borrower provided that Borrower is the surviving entity, and (ii) one or more other Subsidiaries;

(c) Borrower or any Subsidiary may acquire, all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another Subsidiary;

(d) (i) such acquisition is of a Person or ongoing business engaged in business activities conducted, and whose assets are located, in the United States (or Canada if such acquisition(s) do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate) and in the same line of business of Borrower or any business reasonably related, complementary or incidental thereto or reasonable extensions thereof; (ii) immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the proposed acquisition, the acquired entity will not, on a pro forma basis, have negative Consolidated EBITDA for the next 12-month period based on documentation and projections reasonably satisfactory to Bank; (iii) any Person so acquired becomes a Borrower under this Agreement and satisfies the requirements of Section 6.13; and (iv) the sum of Borrower’s (x) cash plus (y) Cash Equivalents minus (z) Indebtedness outstanding shall be equal to or greater than $10,000,000 immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the proposed acquisition; or

7.5. Encumbrance. Except for Permitted Liens, create, incur, allow, or suffer any Lien on any of the Collateral or any of Borrower’s real property, or except as permitted by Section 7.1 assign or convey any right to

receive income, including the sale of any Accounts, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so, or permit any Collateral not to be subject to the first priority security interest granted herein, or enter into any agreement, document, instrument or other arrangement (except with or in favor of Bank) with any Person which directly or indirectly prohibits or has the effect of prohibiting Borrower or any Subsidiary from assigning, mortgaging, pledging, granting a security interest in or upon, or encumbering any of the Collateral or Borrower’s real property other than (i) the Whitney Easement, (ii) customary non-assignment provisions contained in licenses or sublicenses, and (iii) subsection (c) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”.

7.6. Maintenance of Collateral Accounts. Maintain any Collateral Account except pursuant to the terms of Section 6.6(b) hereof.

7.7. Distributions; Investments. (a) Pay any dividends or make any distribution or payment in respect of or redeem, retire or purchase any capital stock other than Permitted Distributions; or (b) directly or indirectly acquire or own any Person, or make any Investment in any Person, other than Permitted Investments, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so, other than Permitted Investments.

7.8. Transactions with Affiliates. Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except for (a) transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair and reasonable terms (when viewed in the context of any series of transactions of which it may be a part, if applicable) that are no less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person; (b) transactions among Borrower and its Subsidiaries and among Borrower’s Subsidiaries so long as no Event of Default exists or could result therefrom; (c) transactions permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 7.3 hereof; (d) Investments permitted under sub-clauses (d), (k) or (l) of the definition of Permitted Investments; (e) equity financings that do not constitute a Change in Control; and (f) debt financings so long as all such Indebtedness is Subordinated Debt.

7.9. Subordinated Debt. Make or permit any payment on or amendments of any Subordinated Debt, except (a) payments pursuant to the terms of the Subordinated Debt; (b) payments made with Borrower’s capital stock or other Subordinated Debt; or (c) amendments to Subordinated Debt so long as such Subordinated Debt remains subordinated in right of payment to this Agreement and any Liens securing such Subordinated Debt remain subordinate in priority to Bank’s Lien hereunder to the same extent as originally contemplated by Bank.

7.10. Compliance. Become an “investment company” or a company controlled by an “investment company”, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or undertake as one of its important activities extending credit to purchase or carry margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), or use the proceeds of any Credit Extension for that purpose; fail to meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA, permit a Reportable Event or Prohibited Transaction, as defined in ERISA, to occur; fail to comply with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act or violate any other law or regulation, if the violation could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so; withdraw or permit any Subsidiary to withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete termination of, or permit the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

Borrower fails to (a) make any payment of principal or interest on any Credit Extension on its due date, or (b) pay any other Obligations within three (3) Business Days after such Obligations are due and payable (which three (3) Business Day cure period shall not apply to payments due on the Revolving Line Maturity Date Term Loan Maturity Date). During the cure period, the failure to make or pay any payment specified under clause (a) or (b) hereunder is not an Event of Default (but no Credit Extension will be made during the cure period);

8.2. Covenant Default.

(a) Borrower fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections 6.2 (other than subsections (d) or (f) thereof), 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 6.12, 6.13 or violates any covenant in Section 7; or

(b) Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe the obligations set forth in Sections 6.2(d) or 6.2(f) or any other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Loan Documents, and as to any default (other than those specified in this Section 8) under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be cured, has failed to cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof; provided, however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to cure the default shall not be deemed an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions shall be made during such cure period). Cure periods provided under this section shall not apply, among other things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in clause (a) above;

8.3. Material Adverse Change. A Material Adverse Change occurs;

8.4. Attachment; Levy; Restraint on Business.

(b) (i) any material portion of Borrower’s assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver, or (ii) any court order enjoins, restrains, or prevents Borrower from conducting any material part of its business;

8.6. Other Agreements. If (a) Borrower fails to (i) make any payment that is due and payable with respect to any Material Indebtedness and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating thereto, or (ii) perform or observe any other condition or covenant, or any other event shall occur or condition exist under any agreement or instrument relating to any Material Indebtedness, and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating thereto and the effect of such failure, event or condition is to cause, or to permit (whether or not exercised), the holder or holders of such Material Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of such Material Indebtedness or cause, or permit (whether or not exercised), the mandatory repurchase of any Material Indebtedness; or (b) there is a default in any Material Contract that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business; provided, however, that the Event of Default under this Section 8.6 caused by the occurrence of a default with respect to such Material Indebtedness or Material Contract shall be cured or waived for purposes of this Agreement upon Bank receiving written notice from the party asserting such default of the cure or waiver of such default, if at the time of such cure or waiver (i) Bank has not declared an Event of Default under this Agreement and/or exercised any rights with respect thereto; (ii) any such cure or waiver does not result in an Event of Default under any other provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document; and (iii) in connection with any such cure or waiver, the terms of any agreement with such third party are not modified or amended in any manner which could in the good faith judgment of Bank be materially less advantageous to Borrower;

8.7. Judgments. One or more final judgments, orders, or decrees for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which liability has been accepted by such insurance carrier) shall be rendered against Borrower and the same are not, within ten (10) days after the entry thereof, discharged or execution thereof stayed or bonded pending appeal, or such judgments are not discharged prior to the expiration of any such stay (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the discharge, stay, or bonding of such judgment, order, or decree);

8.8. Misrepresentations. Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Bank or to induce Bank to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;

8.11. Philippines Pledge Agreement. There is a default under the Philippines Pledge Agreement that continues beyond any stated grace or cure period.

BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1. Rights and Remedies. While 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) demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit remaining undrawn (plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment)), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all letter of credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit;

(d) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

(e) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral;

(f) apply to the Obligations (i) any 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;

(g) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby 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, 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;

(h) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

(i) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

(j) exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

9.2. Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

9.3. Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.

9.4. Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency. If Bank, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.

9.5. Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible 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. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 shall not preclude Bank from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

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

9.8. Agent for the Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints USAPN as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all the Borrowers (the “Administrative Borrower”) which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Bank shall have received prior written notice signed by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (i) to provide Agent with all notices with respect to Credit Extensions obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and (ii) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Credit Extensions and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. To induce Bank to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify Bank and hold Bank harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against Bank by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of Bank’s relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower.

9.9. Borrower Liability. Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Advances made hereunder, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Advance, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Advances. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, including, without limitation, the benefit of California Civil Code Section 2815 permitting revocation as to future transactions and the benefit of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, and 2899 and 3433, and (b) any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against any other Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any other Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, until payment in full of the Obligations and termination of Bank’s commitment to lend hereunder, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Bank under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

9.10. Integrated Group. The successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group of Borrowers, such that each Borrower will benefit from any Credit Extensions Bank makes to another Borrower.

10.

CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER, AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE

California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by Borrower in accordance with, Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the

Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.
