BORROWER: XXXXXXX CARDIOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
XXXXXXX, INC.
ADDRESS: 0000 XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXXX
XXXXXXX, XX 00000
DATE: DECEMBER 30, 2002
THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT is entered into on the above date between
SILICON VALLEY BANK ("Silicon"), whose address is 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 and the borrower(s) named above (jointly and
severally, the "Borrower"), whose chief executive office is located at the
above address ("Borrower's Address"). The Schedule to this Agreement (the
"Schedule") shall for all purposes be deemed to be a part of this Agreement, and
the same is an integral part of this Agreement. (Definitions of certain
terms used in this Agreement are set forth in Section 8 below.)
1. LOANS
1.1 LOANS. Silicon will make loans to Borrower (the "Loans"), in amounts
determined by Silicon in its good faith business judgment, up to the amounts
(the "Credit Limit") shown on the Schedule, provided no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, and subject to deduction of Reserves
for accrued interest and such other Reserves as Silicon deems proper from
time to time in its good faith business judgment.
1.2 INTEREST. All Loans and all other monetary Obligations shall bear
interest at the rate shown on the Schedule, except where expressly set forth to
the contrary in this Agreement. Interest shall be payable monthly, on the last
day of the month. Interest may, in Silicon's discretion, be charged to
Borrower's loan account, and the same shall thereafter bear interest at the
same rate as the other Loans. Silicon may, in its discretion, charge interest
to Borrower's Deposit Accounts maintained with Silicon. Regardless of the
amount of Obligations that may be outstanding from time to time, Borrower shall
pay Silicon minimum monthly interest during the term of this Agreement in the
amount set forth on the Schedule (the "Minimum Monthly Interest").
1.3 OVERADVANCES. If at any time or for any reason the total of all
outstanding Loans and all other monetary Obligations exceeds the Credit Limit
(an "Overadvance"), Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of the excess to
Silicon, without notice or demand. Without limiting Borrower's obligation to
repay to Silicon the amount of any Overadvance, Borrower agrees to pay Silicon
interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at the
Default Rate.
1.4 FEES. Borrower shall pay Silicon the fees shown on the Schedule, which
are in addition to all interest and other sums payable to Silicon and are not
refundable.
1.5 LOAN REQUESTS. To obtain a Loan, Borrower shall make a request to
Silicon by facsimile or telephone. Loan requests received after 12:00 Noon
will not be considered by Silicon until the next Business Day. Silicon may
rely on any telephone request for a Loan given by a person whom Silicon
believes is an authorized representative of Borrower, and Borrower will
indemnify Silicon for any loss Silicon suffers as a result of that reliance.
1.6 LETTERS OF CREDIT. At the request of the Borrower, Silicon may, in its
good faith business judgment issue or arrange for the issuance of letters of
credit for the account of Borrower, in each case in form and substance
satisfactory to Silicon in its sole discretion (collectively, "Letters of
Credit"). The aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit from time to time
outstanding shall not exceed the amount shown on the Schedule (the "Letter of
Credit Sublimit"), and shall be reserved against Loans which would otherwise be
available hereunder, and in the event at any time there are insufficient Loans
-1-
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
available to Borrower for such reserve, Borrower shall deposit and maintain with
Silicon cash collateral in an amount at all times equal to such deficiency,
which shall be held as Collateral for all purposes of this Agreement. Borrower
shall pay all bank charges (including charges of Silicon) for the issuance of
Letters of Credit, together with such additional fee as Silicon's letter of
credit department shall charge in connection with the issuance of the Letters of
Credit. Any payment by Silicon under or in connection with a Letter of Credit
shall constitute a Loan hereunder on the date such payment is made. Each Letter
of Credit shall have an expiry date no later than thirty days prior to the
Maturity Date. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Silicon harmless
from any loss, cost, expense or liability, including payments made by Silicon,
expenses, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon arising out of or
in connection with any Letters of Credit. Borrower agrees to be bound by the
regulations and interpretations of the issuer of any Letters of Credit
guaranteed by Silicon and opened for Borrower's account or by Silicon's
interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued by Silicon for Borrower's
account, and Borrower understands and agrees that Silicon 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. Borrower understands that
Letters of Credit may require Silicon to indemnify the issuing bank for certain
costs or liabilities arising out of claims by Borrower against such issuing
bank. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Silicon harmless with respect
to any loss, cost, expense, or liability incurred by Silicon under any Letter of
Credit as a result of Silicon's indemnification of any such issuing bank. The
provisions of this Loan Agreement, as it pertains to Letters of Credit, and any
other Loan Documents relating to Letters of Credit are cumulative.
2. SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance of all of the
Obligations when due, Borrower hereby grants to Silicon a security interest in
all of the following (collectively, the "Collateral"): all right, title and
interest of Borrower in and to all of the following, whether now owned or
hereafter arising or acquired and wherever located; all Accounts; all Inventory;
all Equipment; all Deposit Accounts; all General Intangibles (including without
limitation all Intellectual Property); all Investment Property; all Other
Property; and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above, and
all guaranties and security for any of the above, and all substitutions and
replacements for, additions, accessions, attachments, accessories, and
improvements to, and proceeds (including proceeds of any insurance policies,
proceeds of proceeds and claims against third parties) of, any and all of the
above, and all Borrower's books relating to any and all of the above.
3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF BORROWER.
In order to induce Silicon to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans,
Borrower represents and warrants to Silicon as follows, and Borrower covenants
that the following representations will continue to be true, and that Borrower
will at all times comply with all of the following covenants, throughout the
term of this Agreement and until all Obligations have been paid and performed in
full:
3.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY. Borrower is and will continue to be,
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation. Borrower is and will continue to be qualified
and licensed to do business in all jurisdictions in which any failure to do so
would result in a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and
performance by Borrower of this Agreement, and all other documents contemplated
hereby (i) have been duly and validly authorized, (ii) are enforceable against
Borrower in accordance with their terms(except as enforcement may be limited by
equitable principles and by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws relating to creditors' rights generally), and (iii) do not
violate Borrower's articles or certificate of incorporation, or Borrower's
by-laws, or any law or any material agreement or instrument which is binding
upon Borrower or its property, and (iv) do not constitute grounds for
acceleration of any material indebtedness or obligation under any agreement or
instrument which is binding upon Borrower or its property.
3.2 NAME; TRADE NAMES AND STYLES. The name of Borrower set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed in the Representations are
all prior names of Borrower and all of Borrower's present and prior trade names.
Borrower shall give Silicon 30 days' prior written notice before changing its
name or doing business under any other name. Borrower has complied, and will in
the future comply, in all material respects, with all laws relating to the
conduct of business under a fictitious business name, except where the failure
to so comply would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change.
3.3 PLACE OF BUSINESS; LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. The address set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is Borrower's chief executive office. In addition,
Borrower has places of business and Collateral is located only at the locations
set forth in the Representations*, Borrower will give Silicon at least 30 days
prior written notice before opening any additional place of business, changing
its chief executive office, or moving any of the Collateral to a location other
than Borrower's Address or one of the locations set forth in the
Representations, except that Borrower may maintain sales offices in the ordinary
course of business at which not more than a total of $10,000 fair market value
of Equipment is located.
-2-
SILICON VALLEY BANK LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* EXCEPT FOR DEMONSTRATION INVENTORY AND FIELD SERVICE INVENTORY (DEFINED AS
INVENTORY IN THE POSSESSION OF BORROWER'S FIELD SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES FOR
PURPOSES OF REPAIR OF SUCH INVENTORY) PROVIDED THAT THE AMOUNT OF SUCH
DEMONSTRATION INVENTORY AND FIELD SERVICE INVENTORY SHALL NOT EXCEED $1,500,000
IN THE AGGREGATE.
3.4 TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERFECTION; PERMITTED LIENS.
(a) Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of
all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased to Borrower.
The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all liens,
charges, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims, except for
Permitted Liens. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority
perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject
only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and
the Collateral against all claims of others.
(b) Borrower has set forth in the Representations all of Borrower's Deposit
Accounts, and Borrower will give Silicon five Business Days advance written
notice before establishing any new Deposit Accounts and will cause the
institution where any such new Deposit Account is maintained to execute and
deliver to Silicon a control agreement in form sufficient to perfect Silicon's
security interest in the Deposit Account and otherwise satisfactory to Silicon
in its good faith business judgment. Nothing herein limits any requirements
which may be set forth in the Schedule as to where Deposit Accounts will be
maintained.
(c) In the event that Borrower shall at any time after the date hereof have
any commercial tort claims against others, which it is asserting or intends to
assert, and in which the potential recovery exceeds $100,000, Borrower shall
promptly notify Silicon thereof in writing and provide Silicon with such
information regarding the same as Silicon shall request (unless providing such
information would waive the Borrower's attorney-client privilege). Such
notification to Silicon shall constitute a grant of a security interest in the
commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof to Silicon, and Borrower shall
execute and deliver all such documents and take all such actions as Silicon
shall request in connection therewith.
(d) None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property in
such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. Borrower is not and
will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the
lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now
prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's
right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral
is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest, Borrower
shall, whenever requested by Silicon, use its * efforts to cause such third
party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to Silicon, such
waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify in its good faith business
judgment. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all
material terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or
in the future may be located.
* reasonable
3.5 MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL. Borrower will maintain the Collateral in good
working condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and Borrower will not use
the Collateral for any unlawful purpose. Borrower will immediately advise
Silicon in writing of any material loss or damage to the Collateral.
3.6 BOOKS AND RECORDS. Borrower has maintained and will maintain at Borrower's
Address complete and accurate books and records, comprising an accounting system
in accordance with GAAP.
3.7 FINANCIAL CONDITION, STATEMENTS AND REPORTS. All financial statements now
or in the future delivered to Silicon have been, and will be, prepared in
conformity with GAAP and now and in the future will fairly present the results
of operations and financial condition of Borrower, in accordance with GAAP, at
the times and for the periods therein stated. Between the last date covered by
any such statement provided to Silicon and the date hereof, there has been no
Material Adverse Change.
3.8 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS; PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS. Borrower has timely
filed, and will timely file, all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower
has timely paid, and will timely pay, all foreign, federal, state and local
taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions now or in the future owed by
Borrower. Borrower may, however, defer payment of any contested taxes, provided
that Borrower (i) in good faith contests Borrower's obligation to pay the taxes
by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted,
(ii) notifies Silicon in writing of the commencement of, and any material
development in, the proceedings, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any other steps
required to keep the contested taxes from becoming a lien upon any of the
Collateral. 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, and shall continue to pay all
amounts necessary to fund all present and future pension, profit sharing and
deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not
and will not withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete
termination of, or permit 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.

property, the conduct and licensing of Borrower's business, and all

investigation pending or (to best of Borrower's knowledge) threatened against or
affecting Borrower in any court or before any governmental agency (or any basis
therefor known to Borrower) which could reasonably be expected to result, either
separately or in the aggregate, in any Material Adverse Change. Borrower will
promptly inform Silicon in writing of any claim, proceeding, litigation or
investigation in the future threatened or instituted against Borrower involving
any single claim of * or more, or involving ** or more in the aggregate.

Silicon transaction reports and schedules of collections, as provided in the
Schedule, on Silicon's standard forms; provided, however, that Borrower's
failure to execute and deliver the same shall not affect or limit Silicon's

Silicon's security interest and other rights therein. If requested by Silicon,
Borrower shall furnish Silicon with copies (or, at Silicon's request, originals)

Borrower in good faith in an arm's length transaction for an aggregate purchase
-4-

price of $25,000 or less (for all such transactions in any fiscal year).
Borrower agrees that it will not commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of
Borrower's other funds or property, but will hold such proceeds separate and

Default, Borrower shall hold the returned Inventory in trust for Silicon, and
immediately notify Silicon of the return of the Inventory.
4.8 VERIFICATION. Silicon may, from time to time, verify directly with the
respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to
the Accounts, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of
Borrower or Silicon or such other name as Silicon may choose.

error, act, omission, or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, failure
to settle, collection or failure to collect any Account, or for settling any
Account in good faith for less than the full amount thereof, nor shall Silicon
be deemed to be responsible for any of Borrower's obligations under any
contract or agreement giving rise to an Account. Nothing herein shall, however,
relieve Silicon from liability for its own gross negligence or willful

to Equipment totaling less than * , which shall be utilized by Borrower
for the replacement of the Equipment with respect to which the insurance
proceeds were paid. Silicon may require reasonable assurance that the insurance
proceeds so released will be so used. If Borrower fails to provide or pay for

Business Day's notice, Silicon, or its agents, shall have the right to inspect
the Collateral, and the right to audit and copy Borrower's books and records.
Silicon shall take reasonable steps to keep confidential all information
obtained in any such inspection or audit, but Silicon shall have the right to
disclose any such information to its auditors, regulatory agencies, and
attorneys, and pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process. The foregoing
inspections and audits shall be at Borrower's expense and the charge therefor
shall be $700 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent
Silicon's then current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses. In the event Borrower and Silicon schedule an audit
more than 10 days in advance, and Borrower seeks to reschedule the audit with
less than 10 days written notice to Silicon, then (without limiting any of
Silicon's rights or remedies), Borrower shall pay Silicon a cancellation fee of
$1,000 plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Silicon, to compensate

7.2 REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, and at any time thereafter, Silicon, at its option, and without
notice or demand of any kind (all of which are hereby expressly waived by
Borrower), may do any one or more of the following: (a) Cease making Loans or
otherwise extending credit to Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document; (b) Accelerate and declare all or any part of the Obligations to be
immediately due, payable, and performable, notwithstanding any deferred or
installment payments allowed by any instrument evidencing or relating to any
Obligation; (c) Take possession of any or all of the Collateral wherever it may
be found, and for that purpose Borrower hereby authorizes Silicon without
judicial process to enter onto any of Borrower's premises without interference
to search for, take possession of, keep, store, or remove any of the Collateral,
and remain on the premises or cause a custodian to remain on the premises in
exclusive control thereof, without charge for so long as Silicon deems it
necessary, in its good faith business judgment, in order to complete the
enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other agreement; provided,
however, that should Silicon seek to take possession of any of the Collateral by
court process, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives: (i) any bond and any surety
or security relating thereto required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as
an incident to such possession; (ii) any demand for possession prior to the
commencement of any suit or action to recover possession thereof; and (iii) any
requirement that Silicon retain possession of, and not dispose of, any such

and to remove the Collateral to such locations as Silicon may deem advisable;
(e) Complete the processing, manufacturing or repair of any Collateral prior to

Sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, in its condition at
the time Silicon obtains possession of it or after further manufacturing,
processing or repair, at one or more public and/or private sales, in lots or in
bulk, for cash, exchange or other property, or on credit, and to adjourn any
such sale from time to time without notice other than oral announcement at the
time scheduled for sale. Silicon shall have the right to conduct such
disposition on Borrower's premises without charge, for such time or times as
Silicon deems reasonable, or on Silicon's premises, or elsewhere and the
Collateral need not be located at the place of disposition. Silicon may directly
or through any affiliated company purchase or lease any Collateral at any such
public disposition, and if permissible under applicable law, at any private
disposition. Any sale or other disposition of Collateral shall not relieve
Borrower of any liability Borrower may have if any Collateral is defective as to
title or physical condition or otherwise at the time of sale; (g) Demand payment
of, and collect any Accounts and General Intangibles comprising Collateral and,
in connection, therewith, Borrower irrevocably authorizes Silicon to endorse or

therefrom payments made with respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds
thereof, and, in Silicon's good faith business judgment, to grant extensions of

face value; (h) Offset against any sums in any of Borrower's general, special or
other Deposit Accounts with Silicon against any or all of the Obligations; and

to and become part of the Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear
interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the
Obligations. Without limiting any of Silicon's rights and remedies, from and
after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the
interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional
* percent per annum (the "Default Rate").

Silicon agree that a sale or other disposition (collectively, "sale") of any
Collateral which complies with the following standards will conclusively be
deemed to be commercially reasonable: (i) Notice of the sale is given to
Borrower at least ten days prior to the sale, and, in the case of a public sale,
notice of the sale is published at least * days prior before the sale; (iii)
The sale is conducted at a place designated by Silicon, with or without the
Collateral being present; (iv) The sale commences at any time between 8:00 a.m.

purchaser to ascertain directly from Borrower any and all information concerning
the same. Silicon shall be free to employ other methods of noticing and selling
the Collateral, in its discretion, if they are commercially reasonable.

7.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, without limiting Silicon's other rights and remedies, Borrower
grants to Silicon an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest,
authorizing and permitting Silicon (acting through any of its employees,
attorneys or agents) at any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or
without notice to Borrower, and at Borrower's expense, to do any or all of the
following, in Borrower's name or otherwise, but Silicon agrees that if it
exercises any right hereunder, it will do so in good faith and in a commercially
reasonably manner: (a) Execute on behalf of Borrower any documents that Silicon
may, in its good faith business judgment, deem advisable in order to perfect and
maintain Silicon's security interest in the Collateral, or in order to exercise
a right of Borrower or Silicon, or in order to fully consummate all the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents;
(b) Execute on behalf of Borrower, any invoices relating to any Account, any
draft against any Account Debtor and any notice to any Account Debtor, any proof
of claim in bankruptcy, any Notice of Lien, claim of mechanic's, materialman's
or other lien, or assignment or satisfaction of mechanic's, materialman's or
other lien; (c) Take control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of
payment or proceeds of Collateral; endorse the name of Borrower upon any
instruments, or documents, evidence of payment or Collateral that may come into
Silicon's possession; (d) Endorse all checks and other forms of remittances
received by Silicon; (e) Pay, contest or settle any lien, charge, encumbrance,
security interest and adverse claim in or to any of the Collateral, or any
judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge
the same; (f) Grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle
Accounts and General Intangibles for less than face value and execute all
releases and other documents in connection therewith; (g) Pay any sums required
on account of Borrower's taxes or to secure the release of any liens therefor,
or both; (h) Settle and adjust, and give releases of, any insurance claim that
relates to any of the Collateral and obtain payment therefor; (i) Instruct any
third party having custody or control of any books or records belonging to, or
relating to, Borrower to give Silicon the same rights of access and other rights
with respect thereto as Silicon has under this Agreement; and (j) Take any
action or pay any sum required of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and any
other Loan Documents. Any and all reasonable sums paid and any and all
reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees
incurred by Silicon with respect to the foregoing shall be added to and become
part of the Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at
a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
In no event shall Silicon's rights under the foregoing power of attorney or any
of Silicon's other rights under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that
Silicon is in control of the business, management or properties of Borrower.
7.5 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds realized as the result of any sale of
the Collateral shall be applied by Silicon first to the reasonable costs,
expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon in
the exercise of its rights under this Agreement, second to the interest due upon
any of the Obligations, and third to the principal of the Obligations, in such
order as Silicon shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be
paid to Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall
remain liable to Silicon for any deficiency. If Silicon, 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, Silicon
shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its good faith business
judgment, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of purchase
price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by
Silicon of the cash therefor.
7.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in
this Agreement, Silicon shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a
secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code and under all other
applicable laws, and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the
future entered into between Silicon and Borrower, and all of such rights and
remedies are cumulative and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by
Silicon of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an
election, nor bar Silicon from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any
other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Silicon to exercise any rights
or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies
shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been
fully paid and performed.

9. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
9.1 INTEREST COMPUTATION. In computing interest on the Obligations, all
checks, wire transfers and other items of payment received by Silicon
(including proceeds of Accounts and payment of the Obligations in full) shall
be deemed applied by Silicon on account of the Obligations two Business Days
after receipt by Silicon of immediately available funds, and, for purposes of
the foregoing, any such funds received after 12:00 Noon on any day shall be
deemed received on the next Business Day. Silicon shall not, however, be
required to credit Borrower's account for the amount of any item of payment
which is unsatisfactory to Silicon in its good faith business judgment, and
Silicon may charge Borrower's loan account for the amount of any item of
payment which is returned to Silicon unpaid.
9.2 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. All payments with respect to the Obligations
may be applied, and in Silicon's good faith business judgment, reversed and
re-applied, to the Obligations, in such order and manner as Silicon shall
determine in its good faith business judgment.
9.3 CHARGES TO ACCOUNTS. Silicon may, in its discretion, require that
Borrower pay monetary Obligations in cash to Silicon, or charge them to
Borrower's Loan account, in which event they will bear interest at the same
rate applicable to the Loans. Silicon may also, in its discretion, charge any
monetary Obligations to Borrower's Deposit Accounts maintained with Silicon.
9.4 MONTHLY ACCOUNTINGS. Silicon shall provide Borrower monthly with an
account of advances, charges, expenses and payments made pursuant to this
Agreement. Such account shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on
Borrower and an account stated (except for * reverses and reapplications of
payments made and corrections of errors discovered by Silicon), unless Borrower
notifies Silicon in writing to the contrary within 60 days after such account is
rendered, describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions.
*MANIFEST ERROR AND FOR
9.5 NOTICES. All notices to be given under this Agreement shall be in

Finance Division, to the attention of the Division Manager or the Division

9.6 SEVERABILITY. Should any provision of this Agreement be held by any
court of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such defect shall
not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall continue in full force
and effect.
9.7 INTEGRATION. This Agreement and such other written agreements,
documents and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith are the
final, entire and complete agreement between Borrower and Silicon and supersede
all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and oral representations and
agreements, all of which are merged and integrated in this Agreement. There are
no oral understandings, representations or agreements between the parties which
are not set forth in this Agreement or in other written agreements signed by the
parties in connection herewith.
9.8 WAIVERS; INDEMNITY. The failure of Silicon at any time or times to
require Borrower to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall not waive or diminish any right of Silicon
later to demand and receive strict compliance therewith. Any waiver of any
default shall not waive or affect any other default, whether prior or
subsequent, and whether or not similar. None of the provisions of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or
knowledge of Silicon or its agents or employees, but only by a specific written
waiver signed by an authorized officer of Silicon and delivered to Borrower.
Borrower waives the benefit of all statutes of limitations relating to any of
the Obligations or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and Borrower

attorneys, and to hold them harmless from and against any and all claims, debts,
liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, causes of action, penalties, costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), of every kind, which they
may sustain or incur based upon or arising out of any of the Obligations, or any

relating to Borrower or the Obligations; provided that this indemnity shall not
extend to damages proximately caused by the indemnitee's own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the

and effect.

directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Silicon shall be liable for any claims, demands, losses or
damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered by Borrower

directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Silicon, but nothing herein shall relieve Silicon from

authorized officer of Silicon.

Borrower from its liability for the Obligations.
9.14 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If Borrower consists of more than one
Person, their liability shall be joint and several,and the compromise of any
claim with, or the release of, any Borrower shall not constitute a compromise

DATE: DECEMBER 30, 2002
This Schedule forms an integral part of the Loan and Security Agreement between
Silicon Valley Bank and the above-borrower of even date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. CREDIT LIMIT
(Section 1.1):
An amount not to exceed the lesser of a total of $12,000,000 at any
one time outstanding (the "Maximum Credit Limit"), or the sum of (a)
and (b) below:
(a) 80% (an "Advance Rate") of the amount of Borrower's
Eligible Accounts (as defined in Section 8 above), plus
(b) an amount not to exceed to lesser of:
(1) 20% (an "Advance Rate") of the value of
Borrower's Eligible Inventory (as defined in Section
8 above), calculated at the lower of cost or market
value and determined on a weighted average basis;
or
(2) an amount equal to 30% (an "Advance Rate") of
the Borrower's Eligible Receivables (as defined in
Section 8 above); or
(3) $2,500,000.
Silicon may, from time to time, modify the Advance Rates, in its good
faith business judgment, upon notice to the Borrower, based on changes
in collection experience with respect to Accounts, its evaluation of
the Inventory or other issues or factors relating to the Accounts,
Inventory or other Collateral. Silicon shall have the right, in its
good faith business judgment to have appraisals of the orderly
liquidation value of the Eligible Inventory done periodically by an
-1-
SILICON VALLEY BANK SCHEDULE OF LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
appraiser acceptable to Silicon, in order to
assist it in determining Advance Rates.
Loans will be made to each Borrower based on the
Eligible Receivables and Eligible Inventory of
each Borrower, subject to the Maximum Credit Limit
set forth above for all Loans to all Borrowers
combined.
LETTER OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT
(Section 1.6): $500,000.
CASH MANAGEMENT
SERVICES AND RESERVES: Borrower may use up to $500,000 of Loans available
hereunder for Silicon's Cash Management Services
(as defined below), including, merchant services,
business credit card, ACH and other services
identified in the cash management services
agreement related to such service (the "Cash
Management Services"). Silicon may, in its sole
discretion, reserve against Loans which would
otherwise be available hereunder such sums as
Silicon shall determine in its good faith business
judgment in connection with the Cash Management
Services, and Silicon may charge to Borrower's
Loan account, any amounts that may become due or
owing to Silicon in connection with the Cash
Management Services. Borrower agrees to execute
and deliver to Silicon all standard form
applications and agreements of Silicon in
connection with the Cash Management Services, and
without limiting any of the terms of such
applications and agreements, Borrower will pay all
standard fees and charges of Silicon in connection
with the Cash Management Services. The Cash
Management Services shall terminate on the
Maturity Date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. INTEREST.
INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2):
A rate equal to the "Prime Rate" in effect from
time to time, plus 1.50% per annum. The foregoing
interest rate shall be reduced by 0.50% per annum
at such time as, and for so long as, Borrower has
a Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined below)
between 1.0 and 1.75. The foregoing interest rate
shall be reduced by an additional 0.50% per annum
at such time as, and for so long as, Borrower has
a Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio equal to or less
than 1.0. The foregoing rate reduction(s) shall be
effective on the first day of the month
immediately following Silicon's receipt of the
financial statements showing, to Silicon's
satisfaction in its good faith business judgment,
that Borrower is entitled to such rate
reduction(s) (See Example
-2-
SILICON VALLEY BANK SCHEDULE TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
below). If the interest rate is so reduced, based on financial
statements as of a certain date and thereafter Borrower's Funded Debt
to EBITDA ratio is no longer less than 1.0, then the interest rate
shall be increased by 0.50% per annum, and the interest rate shall be
increased by an additional 0.50% per annum if Borrower's Funded Debt
to EBITDA ratio is no longer less than 1.75, which rate increase(s)
shall go into effect on the first day of the month immediately
following Silicon's receipt of the financial statements showing that
Borrower is no longer entitled to the rate reduction(s). Such
reduction(s) and increase(s) may be made throughout the term of this
Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall an interest rate
reduction go into effect if, at the date it is to go into effect, a
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed. "Prime Rate" means the rate announced
from time to time by Silicon as its "prime rate;" provided that the
"Prime Rate" in effect on any day shall not be less than 4.25% per
annum; it is a base rate upon which other rates charged by Silicon are
based, and it is not necessarily the best rate available at Silicon.
The interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall change on each
date there is a change in the Prime Rate.
For purposes of the foregoing, "Funded Debt to EBITDA" shall mean the
ratio of (a) all of Borrower's debt funded by third parties (exclusive
of accruals or accounts payable) plus the amount of all outstanding
Loans plus the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit plus
the amount of all Reserves, to (b) Borrower's EBITDA (as defined
below) on an annualized basis, calculated on a rolling three month
basis. For the purposes hereof, "EBITDA" shall mean, on a consolidated
basis, Borrower's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
other non-cash amortization expenses and other non-cash expenses of
Borrower, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, consistently applied.
As an example of the Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio, if the amount of
Funded Debt is $5,000,000 and Borrower's EBITDA for October 2002 is
$500,000, for November 2002 is $500,000 and for December 2002 is
$1,000,000, the Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio for December 2002 would be
0.625 calculated as follows: (i) $5,000,000 (the Funded Debt) divided
by (ii) $8,000,000 (the sum of Borrower's October 2002, November 2002
and December 2002 EBITDA on an annualized basis (i.e., multiplied by
4)). In order to calculate the Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio for January
2003, the EBITDA portion will be calculated by adding the Borrower's
EBITDA for November 2002, December 2002 and January 2003 and
multiplying such sum by 4, and any interest rate adjustment due to the
Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio would go into effect March 1, 2003
assuming Borrower has provided

thereof at the beginning and end of the term
hereof), the sum of (i) the average daily
principal balance of the Loans outstanding during
the month and (ii) the face amount of any
outstanding Letters of Credit is less than the
amount of the Maximum Credit Limit, Borrower
shall pay Silicon an unused line fee in an amount
equal to 0.50% per annum on the difference
between the amount of the Maximum Credit Limit
and the sum of (i) the average daily principal
balance of the Loans outstanding during the month
and (ii) the face amount of any Letters of
Credit, computed on the basis of a 360-day year,
which unused line fee shall be computed and paid
monthly, in arrears, on the first day of the
following month.
