NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1997
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore,
do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The
information furnished, in the opinion of management, reflects all
adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
present fairly the results of operations of the Company for the three- and
six-month periods ended December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 1997 and June 30,
1997.
While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to
make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Form 10-K
for the fiscal period ended June 30, 1997, as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
In October of 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of
Position 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" ("SOP 97-2"). This statement
provides guidance on applying generally accepted accounting principles in
recognizing revenues on software transactions. This Statement supercedes
Statement of Position 91-1 "Software Revenue Recognition". This Statement
is effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Earlier application is encouraged as of the beginning of
the fiscal year or interim period for which financial statements or
information have not been issued. Retroactive application of the provisions
of this statement is prohibited. The Company believes that the adoption of
this statement will not have a material impact on their revenue
recognition.
The results of operations of interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of results which may be expected for any other interim period or for the
year as a whole.
2. BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share for the periods presented have been computed using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The common
equivalent shares (stock options) outstanding during the period have been
excluded due to their anti-diluting effect.
3. INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost being
determined by using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. All
inventories consist of finished goods.
4. LONG LIVED ASSETS
Property and equipment are carried on the basis of cost. Depreciation is
computed by the straight-line method using the estimated useful lives of
the assets.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1997
(CONTINUED)
5. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized from sales when a product is delivered, from rentals
as they accrue, and from services and maintenance when performed. Unearned
income on service contracts is amortized by the straight-line method over
the term of the contracts. Revenue from long-term software contracts is
accounted for by the percentage of completion method whereby income is
recognized based on the estimated stage of completion of individual
contracts using costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs at
completion. Losses on long-term contracts are recognized in the period in
which such losses are determined.
6. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated using
the local currency as the functional currency.
7. REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
In December the Company entered into a $3,350,000 asset-based revolving
line of credit and a $650,000 Term Note Agreement with Coast Business
Credit. Interest is charged at the prime rate plus 2.0% (10.5% at December
31, 1997). Availability under revolving credit is limited to 80% of
eligible accounts receivable and 30% of qualified inventory up to a maximum
availability of $300,000 on eligible inventory. The term note is for a
period of three years and repaid in thirty-six monthly installments. The
term note is secured by $650,000 cash compensating balance account equal to
the amount of the term loan, which collateral is expected to be replaced by
the Company's property and equipment (up to a maximum of 50% of such
property and equipment's appraised value). The restriction of cash
compensating balances will be lifted upon appraisal of the tangible assets
that are directly collateralizing the term note. The credit facility with
Coast Business Credit is collateralized by all of the tangible assets of
the Company and the Company's intellectual property.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 30, 1998, the Company sold 146,496 shares of Common Stock in
exchange for net proceeds of $588,180 under the private placement equity
agreement with Capital Ventures, Inc.

CYBERGUARD CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1996
NET REVENUES
Net revenues consist primarily of network security product sales--including
third party security products--and service and support related to security
products. For the quarter ended December 31, 1997, net sales increased by
approximately $1.8 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 1996. The
$1.8 million increase represents an increase of $1.7 million in product revenues
and $0.1 million in service revenues over the 1996 quarter. The $1.7 million (or
59.6%) increase in network security product revenues is the result of increased
shipments of the Company's CyberGuard firewall systems. Specifically, the
Company shipped 252 CyberGuard Firewall systems during the quarter ended
December 31, 1997, compared to 119 for the quarter ended December 31, 1996.
For the quarter ended December 31, 1997, international sales of the Company's
network security products increased to $2.1 million from $1.9 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 1996. The increase in revenue from international
sales of network security products is the result of increased market penetration
in Europe due, the Company believes, to the formal award of the ITSEC E3
certification standard given to the CyberGuard Firewall. International sales
represented 42.6% and 61.8% of total security product sales for the periods
ending December 31, 1997 and 1996 respectively.
Domestic sales for the Company's network security products increased by $1.6
million to $2.8 million in the quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to the
quarter ended December 31, 1996. The increase in domestic sales is due to
increased orders for the Company's products resulting, the Company believes,
from increased customer awareness and acceptance of firewall products generally,
and from positive reviews from leading-industry publications of the Company's
Release 3 firewall products.
During the quarter ended December 31, 1997, revenues from the various firewall
products and TradeVPI products increased from $2.8 million to $4.5 million,
representing an increase of 60% over sales in the same quarter of the previous
year. Support services related to firewall products and TradeWave certificate
authority services increased from $0.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 to $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997.
This increase is due to the greater number of installed firewall units and to
the greater need for customer training that results from increased sales.
Support services for network security products as a percentage of overall
revenue remained relatively constant in the quarter ended December 31, 1997
compared to the same quarter in the previous year, accounting for 6.7% of sales
during the 1997 quarter, compared to 6.9% for the 1996 quarter.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross Profit as a percent of sales increased to 62.3% from 50.5% for the quarter
ended December 31, 1997 compared to the corresponding period in the previous
year. The increase is a result of increased "software-only" sales, which
accounted for 53% of sales during the quarter ended December 31, 1997. During
the same quarter of the previous year, there were no "software-only" sales;
instead sales during the quarter ended December 31, 1996 consisted exclusively
of a hardware and software combination, which has lower gross margins than those
associated with selling exclusively software. In addition, the Company
experienced cost reductions associated with the shipping of the Intel-based
platform as compared to the
7
<PAGE> 8
CYBERGUARD CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
proprietary Nighthawk platform associated with the Company's combined
hardware/software product. The gross profit margin over the past four quarters
has experienced increases quarter to quarter. Since the introduction of the
Company's software-only product, the Company's sales in Asia have been almost
exclusively "software-only". During the quarter ended December 31, 1997, the
Company's sales in Asia decreased as a result of general economic conditions in
that area of the world. As a result, the software-only products, which have
higher gross margins, decreased as a percentage of the Company's product sales
overall. Although gross margins have generally increased since the introduction
of the software-only product, should Asian sales remain flat or begin to fall,
the growth in gross margins can be expected to slow.
OPERATING EXPENSES AND NET LOSS
Overall, the Company's operating expenses increased by $2.2 million to $5.8
million for the quarter ended December 31, 1997. This increase is due to an
increase of $0.6 million in research and development expenditures compared to
the same quarter of the prior year and an increase of $1.6 million in selling,
general and administrative expenses.
The increased expenditures in research and development are associated primarily
with the Release 4 version of the Company's CyberGuard Firewall "software-only"
product, development of the Windows NT-based Firewall product, and TradeWave VPI
suite of products. Increased selling, general, and administrative expenses
relate to increased product and services sales and the associated additional
expenditures in hiring of new sales personnel, increasing marketing efforts, and
increasing administrative functions to support the larger organization. Overall,
the selling, general, and administrative expenses increased as a percent of
revenues from 83.8% for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 to 87.2% for the
quarter ended December 31, 1997. In mid-December, the Company's management
implemented cost reduction measures in connection with the ongoing integration
of TradeWave Corporation's operations into the Company's. The Company has also
implemented measures designed to reduce research and development expenses
related to the completion of the Company's Windows NT-based products.
The net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 was $2.6 million, compared
to $0.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1996. This increase in net
loss is principally attributable to increased operating expenses (described
above) and to the gain realized on the sale of securities (which consist of
common stock of Concurrent Computer Corporation received by the Company as
consideration for the June 1996 sale to Concurrent of the Company's real-time
computer division) of $0.2 million, as compared to a gain of $1.0 million for
the quarter ended December 31, 1996.
THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD
ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
NET REVENUES
For the six-month period ended December 31, 1997, net revenues increased by
approximately $3.8 million to $9.7 million when compared to the six-month period
ended December 31, 1996. The $3.8 million increase represents an increase of
$3.5 million in revenues from the sale of network security products and $0.3
million in service-related revenues. The $3.5 million (or 61.4%) increase in
network security product revenues is the result of increased shipments of the
Company's CyberGuard firewall product. Specifically, the Company shipped 516
CyberGuard systems during the six-month period ended December 31, 1997, compared
to 285 for the six-month period ended December 31, 1996.

<PAGE> 9
CYBERGUARD CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
For the six-month period ended December 31, 1997, international sales of the
Company's network security products increased to $4.1 million compared to $3.5
million for the six month period ended December 31, 1996. The increase in
international sales represents a 30.3% increase in sales in Europe over the
corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in international sales is
due, the Company believes, to the formal award of the ITSEC E3 certification
standard given to the CyberGuard Firewall. International sales represent 41.5%
and 57.6% of total security product sales for the six-month periods ending
December 31, 1997 and 1996 respectively.
Domestic product sales for network security products increased by $3.2 million
to $5.8 million in the six-month period ended December 31, 1997 over the same
period in the prior year. Domestic sales represent 58.5% of product revenues as
compared to 42.4% for the six month period ended December 31, 1996. This change
is due to increased orders for the Company's products due, the Company believes,
to increased customer awareness and acceptance of firewall products generally,
from positive reviews from industry publications of the Company's Release 3
firewall products and from increased market penetration by the Company's network
of resellers.
Revenues from support services related to firewall products and TradeWave
certificate authority increased from $0.4 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1996 to $0.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 1997.
This increase in service-related revenues is due to the greater number of
installed units and to the increased need for customer training that results
from increased sales. Support services for network security products accounted
for 7.2% of sales during the quarter ended December 31, 1997 as compared to 6.6%
for the quarter ended December 31, 1996.
GROSS PROFIT
The Company's gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 63.5% from 44.7%
for the six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to the corresponding period
in the previous year. The increase is a result of increased "software-only"
sales; for six months ended December 31, 1997, "software-only" sales accounted
for 61% of the revenues. During the six month ended December 31, 1996, there
were no "software-only" sales; instead sales during the quarter ended December
31, 1996 consisted exclusively of a hardware and software combination product
that has lower gross margins than the Company's software-only products. In
addition, the Company experienced cost reductions with the shipping of the Intel
based product as compared to products sold during the previous year that
combined the Company's firewall software with the Company's proprietary
Nighthawk platform.
OPERATING EXPENSES AND NET LOSS
The Company's overall operating expenses increased by $4.3 million for the
six-month period ended December 31, 1997 to $11.2 million. This is due to an
increase of $1.1 million for research and development expenditures compared to
the same period in the prior year and an increase of $3.2 million in selling,
general and administrative expenses over those in the same period of the prior
year.
The increased expenditures in research and development are primarily associated
with the Release 4 version of the CyberGuard Firewall software product,
development of the Windows NT-based firewall product, and the TradeWave VPI
suite of products. Increased selling, general and administrative expenses relate
to increased sales and the associated additional expenditures of hiring of new
sales personnel, increasing marketing efforts, and increasing administrative
functions to support the larger organization. In mid-
9
<PAGE> 10
CYBERGUARD CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
December, the Company's management implemented cost reduction measures related
primarily to the ongoing integration of TradeWave Corporation's operations into
the Company's own operations. The Company also implemented measures designed to
reduce research and development expense related to the completion of the Windows
NT-based products. Overall, selling, general, and administrative expenses
increased as a percent of revenues from 80.1% for the six-month period ended
December 31, 1996 to 81.4% for the six-month period ended December 31, 1997.
The net loss for the six-month period ended December 31, 1997 was $4.3 million
compared to $9.1 million for the six-month period ended December 31, 1996. This
decrease in net loss is principally attributable to two factors (1) to the gain
realized on the sale of securities (which are comprised of common stock of
Concurrent Computer Corporation received by the Company as consideration for the
June 1996 sale to Concurrent of the Company's real-time computer division) of
$0.5 million, as compared to a loss of $5.2 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1996; and (2) offset in part by increased operating loss (described
above).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $4.9
million, representing an increase of $1.9 million over the $3.0 million on hand
as of June 30, 1997. The Company's accounts receivable decreased by $0.2 million
as a result of the Company's collection efforts and decreased quarter-to-quarter
sales. Inventory levels decreased marginally by $0.2 million during the quarter
ended December 31, 1997 as compared to the inventory levels at June 30, 1997.
Property and equipment additions in the six months ended December 31, 1997
amounted to $0.3 million. These additions consisted of office equipment,
furniture, development computers, and demonstration equipment.
Since the sale of the Company's real-time computer division in June 1996, the
Company has experienced a loss from operations. To the extent that the Company
has required cash in addition to that generated from sales, such requirements
have been funded from the sale of Concurrent common stock received in connection
with the sale of the Company's real-time computer division, as well as sale of
the Company's own common stock pursuant to a private placement arrangement
arranged in May 1997 (the "Private Placement Arrangement"). The Private
Placement Arrangement permits the Company, under certain conditions, to sell up
to $7.5 million worth of its common stock to an investor at a discount from the
market price. As of February 6, 1998, the Company has sold in the aggregate
806,482 shares of its common stock under the Arrangement and had received
proceeds of $5,737,236. The Arrangement permits Cyberguard to make calls for
proceeds only within certain volume limitations, subject to certain trends in
the price of Cyberguard common stock, and only upon the passage of specified
time limits between calls for proceeds. The purchaser under the Private
Placement Arrangement has indicated its willingness to waive these restrictions
and to allow the Company to sell the purchaser the amount under the Agreement
without requiring these restrictions be met.
In December 1997, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the
"Coast Credit Facility") with Coast Business Credit, a division of Southern
Pacific Bank consisting of a $3,350,000 asset-based revolving line of credit and
a three-year $650,000 term note. Interest on the Coast Credit Facility is at
prime rate plus 2.0% (10.5% at December 31, 1997). Availability under revolving
credit portion of the Coast Credit Facility is limited to 80% of the Company's
eligible accounts receivable and 30% of its qualified inventory (up to a maximum
availability of $300,000 on eligible inventory). The term note portion of the
Coast Credit Facility is payable in thirty-six monthly installments. The term
note is secured by a $650,000 cash compensating balance account equal to the
amount of the term loan, which collateral is
10
<PAGE> 11
CYBERGUARD CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
expected to be replaced by the Company's property and equipment (up to a maximum
of 50% of such property and equipment's appraised value). The revolving credit
facility is secured by all of the tangible assets of the Company and by the
Company's intellectual property.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity at December 31, 1997 consisted of
cash, the Private Placement Arrangement for the sale of common stock, the Coast
Credit Facility, and vendor trade credit.
The Company believes that its current liquidity and capital resources are
sufficient to fund the Company's current business plan for the next twelve
months.
Statements regarding future products, future prospects, business plans and
strategies, future revenues and revenue sources, future liquidity and capital
resources, computer network security market directions, future acceptance of the

In order to induce Coast to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans,
Borrower represents and warrants to Coast 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:
6.1 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 organization. Borrower is and will continue to be qualified
and licensed to do business in all jurisdictions in which any failure to do so
would have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance by
Borrower of this Agreement, and all other documents contemplated hereby (a) have
been duly and validly authorized, (b) 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 (c) 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 (d) do not constitute grounds for acceleration of any material
indebtedness or obligation under any material agreement or instrument which is
binding upon Borrower or its property.
6.2 NAME; TRADE NAMES AND STYLES. The name of Borrower set forth in the
heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed on the Schedule are all
prior names of Borrower and all of Borrower's present and prior trade names.
Borrower shall give Coast thirty (30) days' prior written notice before changing
its name or doing business under any other name. Borrower has complied, and will

fictitious business name where the failure to do so would have a Material
Adverse Effect.
6.3 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 on the Schedule. Borrower will give Coast 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 on the Schedule.

COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.4 TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS. 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 by 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. Coast 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 Coast and the Collateral against all claims of others. 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 will not become a lessee
under any real property lease pursuant to which the lessor may obtain any rights
in any of the Collateral or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's right
to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Borrower shall, with respect
to existing real property leases, and any future real property leases, obtain
landlord waivers and agreements in form and content acceptable to Coast.
Whenever any Collateral is located upon premises in which any third party has an
interest (whether as owner, mortgagee, beneficiary under a deed of trust, lien
or otherwise), Borrower shall, whenever requested by Coast, use its best efforts
to cause such third party to execute and deliver to Coast, in form acceptable to
Coast, such waivers and subordinations as Coast shall specify, so as to ensure
that Coast's rights in the Collateral are, and will continue to be, superior to
the rights of any such third party. Borrower will keep in full force and effect,
and will comply with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of
the Collateral now or in the future may be located.
6.5 MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL. Borrower will maintain the Collateral in
good working condition, and Borrower will not use the Collateral for any
unlawful purpose. Borrower will immediately advise Coast in writing of any
material loss or damage to the Collateral.
6.6 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.
6.7 FINANCIAL CONDITION, STATEMENTS AND REPORTS. All financial statements
now or in the future delivered to Coast have been, and will be, prepared in
conformity with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financial statements, for
the absence of footnotes and subject to normal year-end adjustments) and now and
in the future will fairly reflect the financial condition of Borrower, at the
times and for the periods therein stated. Between the last date covered by any
such statement provided to Coast and the date hereof, there has been no Material
Adverse Effect. Borrower is now and will continue to be Solvent.
6.8 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS; PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS. Borrower has timely
filed, and will timely file, all tax returns and reports required by foreign,
federal, state and local law (including appropriate extensions), 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 Coast 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. As of the date hereof, 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 result in any liability of Borrower,
including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its
successors or any other governmental agency. Borrower shall, at all times,
utilize the services of an outside payroll service providing for the automatic
deposit of all payroll taxes payable by Borrower.
6.9 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Borrower has complied, and will comply, in all
material respects, with all provisions of all material foreign, federal, state
and local laws and regulations relating to Borrower, including, but not limited
to, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and those relating to Borrower's ownership of
real or personal property, the conduct and licensing of Borrower's business, and
environmental matters.
6.10 LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, there is no claim,
suit, litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or (to best of Borrower's
knowledge) threatened by or against or affecting Borrower in any court or before
any governmental agency (or any basis therefor known to Borrower) which may
result, either separately or in the aggregate, in a Material
9
<PAGE> 11
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adverse Effect. Borrower will promptly inform Coast in writing of any claim,
proceeding, litigation or investigation in the future threatened or instituted
by or against Borrower involving an amount set forth on the Schedule.
6.11 USE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds of all Loans shall be used solely for
lawful business purposes. Borrower is not purchasing or carrying any "margin
stock" (as defined in Regulation G of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used to purchase
or carry any "margin stock" or to extend credit to others for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying any "margin stock."
7. RECEIVABLES.
7.1 REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO RECEIVABLES. Borrower represents and
warrants to Coast as follows: Each Receivable with respect to which Loans are
requested by Borrower shall, on the date each Loan is requested and made,
represent an undisputed bona fide existing unconditional obligation of the
Account Debtor created by the sale, delivery and acceptance of goods or the
rendition of services in the ordinary course of Borrower's business. Borrower
shall, as soon as practicable, and in a prompt and timely manner, provide
written reports to Coast in for and substance satisfactory to Coast detailing
the actual or estimated amount and timing of credits, reductions, rebates and
refunds that are not currently reflected in reported Receivables but which
Borrower anticipates will be due or available to customers on account of sales
of upgraded software, product improvements and similar circumstances.
7.2 REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO DOCUMENTS AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE. Borrower
represents and warrants to Coast as follows: All statements made and all unpaid
balances appearing in all invoices, instruments and other documents evidencing
the Receivables are and shall be true and correct and all such invoices,
instruments and other documents and all of Borrower's books and records are and
shall be genuine and in all respects what they purport to be. All sales and
other transactions underlying or giving rise to each Receivable shall fully
comply with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations. All
signatures and endorsements on all documents, instruments, and agreements
relating to all Receivables are and shall be genuine, and all such documents,
instruments and agreements are and shall be legally enforceable in accordance
with their terms.
7.3 SCHEDULES AND DOCUMENTS RELATING TO RECEIVABLES. Borrower shall
deliver to Coast via facsimile, unless otherwise directed by Coast, at such
locations and at such intervals as Coast may request, transaction reports and
loan requests, schedules of Receivables, and schedules of collections, all on
Coast's standard forms; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Borrower's failure to execute
and deliver the same shall not affect or limit Coast's security interest and
other rights in all of Borrower's Receivables, nor shall Coast's failure to
advance or lend against a specific Receivable affect or limit Coast's security
interest and other rights therein. Loan requests received after 10:30 A.M. Los
Angeles, California time, will not be considered by Coast until the next
Business Day. Together with each such schedule, or later if requested by Coast,
Borrower shall furnish Coast with copies (or, at Coast's request, originals) of
all contracts, orders, invoices, and other similar documents, and all original
shipping instructions, delivery receipts, bills of lading, and other evidence of
delivery, for any goods the sale or disposition of which gave rise to such
Receivables, and Borrower warrants the genuineness of all of the foregoing.
Borrower shall also furnish to Coast an aged accounts receivable trial balance
in such form and at such intervals as Coast shall request. In addition, Borrower
shall deliver to Coast the originals of all instruments, chattel paper, security
agreements, guarantees and other documents and property evidencing or securing
any Receivables, upon receipt thereof and in the same form as received, with all
necessary endorsements, all of which shall be with recourse. Borrower shall also
provide Coast with copies of all credit memos as and when requested by Coast.
7.4 COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES. Borrower shall have the right to collect
all Receivables, unless and until an Event of Default has occurred. Borrower
shall hold all payments on, and proceeds of, Receivables in trust for Coast, and
Borrower shall deliver all such payments and proceeds to Coast within one (1)
Business Day after receipt by Borrower, in their original form, duly endorsed to
Coast, to be applied to the Obligations in such order as Coast shall determine.
Coast may, in its discretion, require that all proceeds of Collateral be
deposited by Borrower into a lockbox account, or such other "blocked account" as
Coast may specify, pursuant to a blocked account agreement in such form as Coast
may specify. Coast or its designee may, at any time, notify Account Debtors that
Coast has been granted a security interest in the Receivables.
7.5 REMITTANCE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds arising from the disposition of
any Collateral shall be delivered to Coast within one (1) Business Day after
receipt by Borrower, in their original form, duly endorsed to Coast, to be
applied to the Obligations in such order as Coast shall determine. Borrower
agrees that it will not
10
<PAGE> 12
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of Borrower's other funds or property,
but will hold such proceeds separate and apart from such other funds and
property and in an express trust for Coast. Nothing in this Section limits the
restrictions on disposition of Collateral set forth elsewhere in this Agreement.
7.6 DISPUTES. Borrower shall notify Coast promptly of all disputes or
claims relating to Receivables. Borrower shall not forgive (completely or
partially), compromise or settle any Receivable for less than payment in full,
or agree to do any of the foregoing, except that Borrower may do so, provided
that: (a) Borrower does so in good faith, in a commercially reasonable manner,
in the ordinary course of business, and in arm's length transactions, which are
reported to Coast on the regular reports provided to Coast; (b) no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (c) taking into account all
such discounts settlements and forgiveness, the total outstanding Loans will not
exceed the Credit Limit. Coast may, at any time after an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, settle or adjust disputes or claims directly with
Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Coast considers advisable in
its reasonable credit judgment and, in all cases, Coast shall credit Borrower's
Loan account with only the net amounts received by Coast in payment of any
Receivables.
7.7 RETURNS. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
if any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to Borrower in the ordinary course
of its business, Borrower shall promptly determine the reason for such return
and promptly issue a credit memorandum to the Account Debtor in the appropriate
amount. In the event any attempted return occurs after an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall (a) hold the returned Inventory in
trust for Coast, (b) segregate all returned Inventory from all of Borrower's
other property, (c) conspicuously label the returned Inventory as subject to
Coast's security interest, and (d) immediately notify Coast of the return of any
Inventory, specifying the reason for such return, the location and condition of
the returned Inventory, and on Coast's request deliver such returned Inventory
to Coast.
7.8 VERIFICATION. Coast may, from time to time, verify directly with the
respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to
the Receivables, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of
Borrower or such other name as Coast may choose. Provided, however, Coast shall
not use its own name unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
or if Coast has notified the persons obligated on account of Receivables or
General Intangibles as permitted in Section 10.2 of this Loan and Security
Agreement.
7.9 NO LIABILITY. Coast shall not under any circumstances be responsible
or liable for any shortage or discrepancy in, damage to, or loss or destruction
of, any goods, the sale or other disposition of which gives rise to a
Receivable, or for any error, act, omission or delay of any kind occurring in
the settlement, failure to settle, collection or failure to collect any
Receivable, or for settling any Receivable in good faith for less than the full
amount thereof, nor shall Coast be deemed to be responsible for any of
Borrower's obligations under any contract or agreement giving rise to a
Receivable. Nothing herein shall, however, relieve Coast from liability for its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
8. ADDITIONAL DUTIES OF THE BORROWER.
8.1 FINANCIAL AND OTHER. Borrower shall at all times comply with the
financial and other covenants set forth in the Schedule.
8.2 INSURANCE. Borrower shall, at all times insure all of the tangible
personal property Collateral and carry such other business insurance, with
insurers reasonably acceptable to Coast, in such form and amounts as Coast may
reasonably require, and Borrower shall provide evidence of such insurance to
Coast, so that Coast is satisfied that such insurance is, at all times, in full
force and effect. All liability insurance policies of Borrower shall name Coast
as an additional insured, and all property casualty and related insurance
policies of Borrower shall name Coast as a loss payee thereon and Borrower shall
cause a lender's loss payee endorsement in form reasonably acceptable to Coast.
Upon receipt of the proceeds of any such insurance, Coast shall apply such
proceeds in reduction of the Obligations as Coast shall determine in its sole
discretion, except that, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Coast shall release to Borrower insurance proceeds with
respect to Equipment totaling less than the amount set forth in Section 8 of the
Schedule, which shall be utilized by Borrower for the replacement of the
Equipment with respect to which the insurance proceeds were paid. Coast may
require reasonable assurance that the insurance proceeds so released will be so
used. If Borrower fails to provide or pay for any insurance, Coast may, but is
not obligated to, obtain the same at Borrower's expense. Borrower shall promptly
deliver to Coast copies of all reports made to insurance companies.
8.3 REPORTS. Borrower, at its expense, shall provide Coast with the
written reports set forth in Section
11
<PAGE> 13
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8 of the Schedule, and such other written reports with respect to Borrower
(including budgets, sales projections, operating plans and other financial
documentation), as Coast shall from time to time reasonably specify subject to
limitations of applicable federal and state securities laws.
8.4 ACCESS TO COLLATERAL, BOOKS AND RECORDS. At reasonable times but not
less frequently than quarterly and on one (1) Business Day's notice, Coast, or
its agents, shall have the right to perform Audits. Coast shall take reasonable
steps to keep confidential all confidential information obtained in any Audit,
but Coast 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 Audits shall be at Borrower's expense and the charge for the Audits
shall be Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750) per person per day (or such higher
amount as shall represent Coast's then current standard charge for the same),
plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The Audits performed by Coast at
Borrower's expense may be performed on a quarterly basis; provided, however,
Coast may conduct additional or more frequent Audits at Borrower's expense if
Coast, in its sole discretion, reasonably and in good faith, determines the same
to be necessary. Borrower will not enter into any agreement with any accounting
firm, service bureau or third party to store Borrower's books or records at any
location other than Borrower's Address, without first notifying Coast of the
same and obtaining the written agreement from such accounting firm, service
bureau or other third party to give Coast the same rights with respect to access
to books and records and related rights as Coast has under this Loan Agreement.
8.5 NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower shall not, without Coast's prior written
consent, do any of the following:
(a) merge or consolidate with another entity, except in a
transaction in which (i) the owners of the Borrower hold at least twenty percent
(20%) of the ownership interest in the surviving entity immediately after such
merger or consolidation, and (ii) the Borrower is the surviving entity;
(b) acquire any assets, except (i) in the ordinary course of
business, or (ii) in a transaction or a series of transactions not involving the

the Schedule;

business which Coast, in its good faith judgment believes will pose a
substantial risk of a Material Adverse Effect;

Inventory in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, and except for the sale
of obsolete or unneeded Equipment in the ordinary course of business;
(e) store any Inventory or other Collateral with any warehouseman or
other third party. Provided, however, Borrower may allow samples, demos and
promotional items to be provided to sales personnel, and temporarily to selected
distributors and customers provided that the aggregate cost value shall not
exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), the identity, location and value of
such items of Inventory are regularly and timely reported to Coast and the same
are excluded from determining Eligible Inventory;
(f) sell any Inventory on a sale-or-return, guaranteed sale,
consignment, or other contingent basis;
(g) make any loans of any money or other assets, except (i) advances
to customers or suppliers in the ordinary course of business, (ii) travel
advances, employee relocation loans and other employee loans and advances in the
ordinary course of business, and (iii) loans to employees, officers and

COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

continuing or would occur as a result of such transaction.
8.6 LITIGATION COOPERATION. Should any third-party suit or proceeding be
instituted by or against Coast with respect to any Collateral or relating to
Borrower, Borrower shall, without expense to Coast, make available Borrower and
its officers, employees and agents and Borrower's books and records, to the
extent that Coast may deem them reasonably necessary in order to prosecute or
defend any such suit or proceeding.
8.7 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Borrower agrees, at its expense, on request by
Coast, to execute all documents and take all actions, as Coast, may deem
reasonably necessary or useful in order to perfect and maintain Coast's
perfected security interest in the Collateral, and in order to fully consummate
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
9. TERM.
9.1 MATURITY DATE. This Agreement shall continue in effect until the

and this Agreement shall automatically and continuously renew, for successive
additional terms of one year each, unless one party gives written notice to the
other, not less than ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date or the next
Renewal Date, that such party elects to terminate this Agreement effective on
the Maturity Date or such next Renewal Date. If and every time this Agreement is
renewed under this Section 9.1, Borrower shall pay to Coast a Renewal Fee in the
amount shown in Section 3 of the Schedule. The Renewal Fee shall be due and
payable on each Renewal Date and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal

immediately. If this Agreement is terminated by Borrower or by Coast under this
Section 9.2, Borrower shall pay to Coast an Early Termination Fee in the amount

payable on the effective date of termination and thereafter shall bear interest
at a rate equal to the rate applicable to the Receivable Loans.
9.3 PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. On the Maturity Date or on any earlier
effective date of termination, Borrower shall pay and perform in full all
Obligations, whether evidenced by installment notes or otherwise, and whether or
not all or any part of such Obligations are otherwise then due and payable.
Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, all of Coast's security
interests in all of the Collateral and all of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until all Obligations have
been paid and performed in full; provided that, without limiting the fact that
Loans are subject to the discretion of Coast, Coast may, in its sole discretion,
refuse to make any further Loans after termination. No termination shall in any
way affect or impair any right or remedy of Coast, nor shall any such
termination relieve Borrower of any Obligation to Coast, until all of the
Obligations have been paid and performed in full. Upon payment and performance
in full of all the Obligations and termination of this Agreement, Coast shall
promptly deliver to Borrower termination statements, requests for reconveyances
and such other documents as may be required to fully terminate Coast's security
interests.

consent shall be in the discretion of Coast in the exercise of its reasonable
business judgment; or
(p) Borrower shall generally not pay its debts as they become due,
or Borrower shall conceal, remove or transfer any part of its property, with
intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors, or make or suffer any transfer
of any of its property which may be fraudulent under any bankruptcy, fraudulent
conveyance or similar law; or
(q) there shall be any Material Adverse Effect.
Coast may cease making any Loans or extending any credit hereunder during any
period that any of the events listed in this Section 10.1 exist and are
continuing. The cure periods listed above with respect to certain of the items
in this section 10.1 shall not be construed to require Coast to make any
advances unless and until timely cures occur.
10.2 REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of any
Event of Default, Coast, 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 document or agreement;
(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
14

COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Borrower hereby authorizes Coast 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 Coast deems it reasonably necessary in order to complete
the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other agreement;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that should Coast 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 Coast retain possession of, and not
dispose of, any such Collateral until after trial or final judgment;
(d) Require Borrower to assemble any or all of the Collateral and
make it available to Coast at places designated by Coast which are reasonably
convenient to Coast and Borrower, and to remove the Collateral to such locations
as Coast may deem advisable;
(e) Complete the processing, manufacturing or repair of any
Collateral prior to a disposition thereof and, for such purpose and for the
purpose of removal, Coast shall have the right to use Borrower's premises,
vehicles, hoists, lifts, cranes, equipment and all other property without
charge. Coast is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Coast's
benefit;
(f) Sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, in
its condition at the time Coast 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. Coast shall have the right to
conduct such disposition on Borrower's premises without charge, for such time or
times as Coast deems reasonable, or on Coast's premises, or elsewhere and the
Collateral need not be located at the place of disposition. Coast 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 Receivables and General
Intangibles comprising Collateral and, in connection therewith, Borrower
irrevocably authorizes Coast to endorse or sign Borrower's name on all
collections, receipts, instruments and other documents, to take possession of
and open mail addressed to Borrower and remove therefrom payments made with
respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Coast's sole
discretion, to grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle
Receivables and the like for less than face value; and
(h) Demand and receive possession of any of Borrower's federal and
state income tax returns and the books and records utilized in the preparation
thereof or referring thereto.
All reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses, costs, liabilities and
obligations incurred by Coast (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
incurred in connection with bankruptcy) with respect to the foregoing shall be
due from the Borrower to Coast on demand. Coast may charge the same to
Borrower's loan account, and the same shall thereafter bear interest at the same
rate as is applicable to the Receivable Loans. Without limiting any of Coast's
rights and remedies, from and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional
three percent per annum.
10.3 STANDARDS FOR DETERMINING COMMERCIAL REASONABLENESS. Borrower and
Coast 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:
(a) Notice of the sale is given to Borrower at least seven (7) days
prior to the sale, and, in the case of a public sale, notice of the sale is
published at least seven (7) days before the sale in a newspaper of general
circulation in the county where the sale is to be conducted;
15
<PAGE> 17
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) Notice of the sale describes the collateral in general,
non-specific terms;
(c) The sale is conducted at a place designated by Coast, with or
without the Collateral being present;
(d) The sale commences at any time between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
Los Angeles, California time;
(e) Payment of the purchase price in cash or by cashier's check or
wire transfer is required; and
(f) With respect to any sale of any of the Collateral, Coast may
(but is not obligated to) direct any prospective purchaser to ascertain directly
from Borrower any and all information concerning the same.
Coast shall be free to employ other methods of noticing and selling the
Collateral, in its discretion, if they are commercially reasonable.
10.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Borrower grants to Coast an irrevocable power of
attorney coupled with an interest, authorizing and permitting Coast (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
Coast agrees to exercise the following powers in a commercially reasonable
manner:
(a) Execute on behalf of Borrower any documents that Coast may, in
its sole discretion, deem advisable in order to perfect and maintain Coast's
security interest in the Collateral, or in order to exercise a right of Borrower
or Coast, or in order to fully consummate all the transactions contemplated
under this Agreement, and all other present and future agreements;
(b) After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
execute on behalf of Borrower any document exercising, transferring or assigning
any option to purchase, sell or otherwise dispose of or to lease (as lessor or
lessee) any real or personal property which is part of Coast's Collateral or in
which Coast has an interest;
(c) Execute on behalf of Borrower, any invoices relating to any
Receivable, 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;
(d) 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
Coast's possession;
(e) Endorse all checks and other forms of remittances received by
Coast;
(f) 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;
(g) After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, grant
extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle Receivables and General
Intangibles for less than face value and execute all releases and other
documents in connection therewith;
(h) Pay any sums required on account of Borrower's taxes or to
secure the release of any liens therefor, or both;
(i) After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, settle
and adjust, and give releases of, any insurance claim that relates to any of the
Collateral and obtain payment therefor;
(j) Instruct any third party having custody or control of any books
or records belonging to, or relating to, Borrower to give Coast the same rights
of access and other rights with respect thereto as Coast has under this
Agreement; and
(k) Take any action or pay any sum required of Borrower pursuant to
this Agreement and any other present or future agreements.
Coast shall, if requested by Borrower, provide Borrower with information
or summaries of actions that have been taken by Coast from time to time with
respect to the foregoing.
Any and all sums paid and any and all costs, expenses, liabilities,
obligations and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Coast (including
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred pursuant to bankruptcy) with respect to
the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, and shall be
payable on demand. Coast may charge the foregoing to Borrower's loan account and
the foregoing shall thereafter bear interest at the same rate
16
<PAGE> 18
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
applicable to the Receivable Loans. In no event shall Coast's rights under the
foregoing power of attorney or any of Coast's other rights under this Agreement
be deemed to indicate that Coast is in control of the business, management or
properties of Borrower. Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold Coast
and each of its officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents, and
attorneys-in-fact (each, an "Indemnified Person") harmless (to the fullest
extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits,
actions, investigations, proceedings, and damages, and all attorneys fees and
disbursements and other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection
therewith (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is
brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them
in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution, delivery,
enforcement, performance, and administration of this Agreement and any other
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated herein, and with respect to any
investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder
(irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act,
omission, event or circumstance in any manner related thereto (all the
foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"). Borrower shall have no
obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder with respect to any Indemnified
Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified
Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
repayment of the Obligations.
10.5 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds realized as the result of any
sale of the Collateral shall be applied by Coast first to the costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Coast 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 Coast shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to
Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable
to Coast for any deficiency. If, Coast, in its sole discretion, directly or
indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any
purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Coast shall have the option, exercisable at
any time, in its sole discretion, of either reducing the Obligations by the
principal amount of purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations
until the actual receipt by Coast of the cash therefor.
10.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth
in this Agreement, Coast shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a
secured party in equity, under the Code, and under all other applicable laws,
and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the future entered into
between Coast and Borrower, and all of such rights and remedies are cumulative
and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by Coast of one or more of
its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an election, nor bar Coast from
subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any other rights or remedies. The
failure or delay of Coast 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 indefeasibly paid and
performed.
11. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
11.1 INTEREST COMPUTATION. In computing interest on the Obligations, all
checks, wire transfers and other items of payment received by Coast (including
proceeds of Receivables and payment of the Obligations in full) shall be deemed
applied by Coast on account of the Obligations three (3) Business Days after
receipt by Coast of immediately available funds, and, for purposes of the
foregoing, any such funds received after 10:30 AM Los Angeles, California time,
on any day shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Coast shall be
entitled to charge Borrower's account for such three (3) Business Days of
"clearance" or "float" at the rate(s) set forth in Section 3 of the Schedule on
all checks, wire transfers and other items received by Coast, regardless of
whether such three (3) Business Days of "clearance" or "float" actually occur,
and shall be deemed to be the equivalent of charging three (3) Business Days of
interest on such collections. This across-the-board three (3) Business Day
clearance or float charge on all collections is acknowledged by the parties to
constitute an integral aspect of the pricing of Coast's financing of Borrower.
Coast shall not, however, be required to credit Borrower's account for the
amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Coast in its good faith
judgment, and Coast may charge Borrower's loan account for the amount of any
item of payment which is returned to Coast unpaid.
11.2 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Subject to Section 7.5 hereof, all payments
with respect to the Obligations may be applied, and in Coast's sole discretion
reversed and re-applied, to the Obligations, in such order and manner as Coast
shall determine in its sole discretion.
11.3 CHARGES TO ACCOUNTS. Coast may, in its discretion, require that
Borrower pay monetary Obligations in cash to Coast, or charge them to
17
<PAGE> 19
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Borrower's Loan account, in which event they will bear interest from the date
due to the date paid at the same rate applicable to the Loans.
11.4 MONTHLY ACCOUNTINGS. Coast 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 Coast), unless Borrower
notifies Coast in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after each
account is rendered, describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions.
11.5 NOTICES. All notices to be given under this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be given either personally or by reputable private delivery
service or by regular first-class mail, facsimile or certified mail return
receipt requested, addressed to Coast or Borrower at the addresses shown in the
heading to this Agreement, or at any other address designated in writing by one
party to the other party. Notices to Coast shall be directed to the Commercial
Finance Division, to the attention of the Division Manager or the Division
Credit Manager. Notices to Borrower shall be directed to the attention of the
Chief Financial Officer. All notices shall be deemed to have been given upon
delivery in the case of notices personally delivered, faxed (at time of
confirmation of transmission), or at the expiration of one (1) Business Day
following delivery to the private delivery service, or two (2) Business Days
following the deposit thereof in the United States mail, with postage prepaid.
11.6 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.
11.7 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 Coast 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.
11.8 WAIVERS. The failure of Coast at any time or times to require
Borrower to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any
other present or future agreement between Borrower and Coast shall not waive or
diminish any right of Coast 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 agreement now or in the future
executed by Borrower and delivered to Coast shall be deemed to have been waived
by any act or knowledge of Coast or its agents or employees, but only by a
specific written waiver signed by an authorized officer of Coast and delivered
to Borrower. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of
default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise,
settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, instrument, account,
General Intangible, document or guaranty at any time held by Coast on which
Borrower is or may in any way be liable, and notice of any action taken by
Coast, unless expressly required by this Agreement.
11.9 NO LIABILITY FOR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE. Neither Coast, nor any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Coast shall be liable for any claims, demands, losses or
damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered by Borrower
or any other party through the ordinary negligence of Coast, or any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Coast, but nothing herein shall relieve Coast from
liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11.10 AMENDMENT. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may not be
waived or amended, except in a writing executed by Borrower and a duly
authorized officer of Coast.
11.11 TIME OF ESSENCE.. Time is of the essence in the performance by
Borrower of each and every obligation under this Agreement.
11.12 ATTORNEYS FEES, COSTS AND CHARGES. Borrower shall reimburse Coast
for all reasonable attorneys' fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses incurred pursuant to bankruptcy) and all filing, recording, search,
title insurance, appraisal, audit, and other costs incurred by Coast, pursuant
to, or in connection with, or relating to this Agreement (whether or not a
lawsuit is filed), including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred pursuant to
bankruptcy) Coast incurs in order to do the following: prepare and negotiate
this Agreement and the documents
18
<PAGE> 20
COAST BUSINESS CREDIT LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
relating to this Agreement; obtain legal advice in connection with this
Agreement or Borrower; enforce, or seek to enforce, any of its rights; prosecute
actions against, or defend actions by, Account Debtors; commence, intervene in,
or defend any action or proceeding; initiate any complaint to be relieved of the
automatic stay in bankruptcy; file or prosecute any probate claim, bankruptcy
claim, third-party claim, or other claim; examine, audit, copy, and inspect any
of the Collateral or any of Borrower's books and records; protect, obtain
possession of, lease, dispose of, or otherwise enforce Coast's security interest
in, the Collateral; and otherwise represent Coast in any litigation relating to
Borrower. If either Coast or Borrower files any lawsuit against the other
predicated on a breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action
shall be entitled to recover its costs and attorneys' fees (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred pursuant to bankruptcy), including (but
not limited to) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the enforcement
of, execution upon or defense of any order, decree, award or judgment. Borrower
shall also pay Coast's standard charges for returned checks and for wire
transfers, in effect from time to time. All attorneys' fees, costs and charges
(including attorneys' fees and expenses incurred pursuant to bankruptcy) and
other fees, costs and charges to which Coast may be entitled pursuant to this
Agreement may be charged by Coast to Borrower's loan account and shall
thereafter bear interest at the same rate as the Receivable Loans.
11.13 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns,
heirs, beneficiaries and representatives of Borrower and Coast; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Coast, and any prohibited
assignment shall be void. No consent by Coast to any assignment shall release
Borrower from its liability for the Obligations. Coast may assign its rights and
delegate its duties hereunder by the sale of assignment or participation
interests, all without the consent of Borrower.
11.14 PUBLICITY. Coast is hereby authorized, at its expense, to issue
appropriate press releases and to cause a tombstone to be published announcing
the consummation of this transaction and the aggregate amount thereof.
11.15 PARAGRAPH HEADINGS; CONSTRUCTION. Paragraph headings are only used
in this Agreement for convenience. Borrower and Coast acknowledge that the
headings may not describe completely the subject matter of the applicable
paragraph, and the headings shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit,
define or interpret any term or provision of this Agreement. The term including,
whenever used in this Agreement, shall mean "including but not limited to". This
Agreement has been fully reviewed and negotiated between the parties and no
uncertainty or ambiguity in any term or provision of this Agreement shall be
construed strictly against Coast or Borrower under any rule of construction or
otherwise.
11.16 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE. This Agreement and all acts and
transactions hereunder and all rights and obligations of Coast and Borrower
shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of California, without
regard to its conflicts of law principles. As a material part of the
consideration to Coast to enter into this Agreement, Borrower (a) agrees that
all actions and proceedings relating directly or indirectly to this Agreement
shall, at Coast's option, be litigated in courts located within California, and
that the exclusive venue therefor shall be Los Angeles County; (b) consents to
the jurisdiction and venue of any such court and consents to service of process
in any such action or proceeding by personal delivery or any other method
permitted by law; and (c) waives any and all rights Borrower may have to object
to the jurisdiction of any such court, or to transfer or change the venue of any
such action or proceeding.
11.17 MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER AND COAST EACH HEREBY WAIVE
THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT
OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE
INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN COAST AND BORROWER, OR ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR
OMISSIONS OF COAST OR BORROWER OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES,
AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH COAST OR BORROWER, IN ALL
OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.
11.18 REGULATORY FILINGS. A copy of the Loan Documents or portions thereof
may be filed in compliance with the requirements of applicable federal and state
securities laws.

Coast Business Credit(R), a division of Southern Pacific Bank, and the
above-Borrowers of even date.
================================================================================
SECTION 2 - CREDIT FACILITIES
SECTION 2.1 - CREDIT LIMIT: Loans in a total amount at any time
outstanding not to exceed the lesser of
a total of Four Million Dollars
($4,000,000.00) at any one time
outstanding (the "Maximum Dollar
Amount"), or the sum of (a), (b) and
(c) below:
(a) Receivable Loans up to eighty
percent (80%) of the amount of
Borrower's Eligible Receivables
(as defined in Section 1 of the
21
<PAGE> 23
CREDIT COAST BUSINESS CREDIT SCHEDULE TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreement). The advance rate on the Receivable
Loans may be increased, in Coast's sole and
exclusive option, to an amount not to exceed
eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of
Borrower's Eligible Receivables if Coast, in its
sole and absolute discretion, determines that
dilution of Receivables has been and is, in Coast's
opinion, likely to continue at a rate that is five
percent (5%) or less; PLUS
(b) Inventory Loans in an amount not to exceed the
lesser of:
(1) up to thirty percent (30% ) of the value of
Borrower's Eligible Inventory (as defined in
Section 1 of the Agreement), calculated at the
lower of cost or market and determined on a
first-in, first-out basis; or
(2) Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00);
PLUS
(c) Term Loan in the original principal amount not to
exceed Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($650,000.00) subject to the following terms:
(1) The Term Loan shall be secured by the
Collateral and also by a cash deposit (the
"Cash Deposit") of Six Hundred and Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($650,000.00) with Coast. The
Term Loan balance to the extent secured by the
Cash Deposit existing from time to time (the
"Cash-Backed Term Loan") shall be payable on
an interest only basis at the rate and in the
manner provided in Section 3.1 of this
Agreement. The Cash Backed Term Loan shall be
evidenced by that certain Secured Promissory
Note #1 of even date herewith (the "Term Note
#1").
(2) Coast shall, at any time and from time to
time, release and return to Borrower any or
all of the Cash Deposit subject to the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth in this
subsection 2.1(c)(2). If Borrower requests
Coast to release any or all of the Cash
Deposit, Borrower must request Coast to
arrange for an appraisal of Borrower's
Machinery and Equipment. All costs, expenses
and fees of the appraisal shall be paid by or
on behalf of Borrower. If a request for an
appraisal is made by or on behalf of Borrower,
Coast will promptly retain one or more
appraisers who, in Coast's sole and absolute
judgment, are well qualified and are available
to appraise the types of Machinery and
Equipment that are to be appraised. If Coast
is furnished with such an appraisal and, after
review of the same, concludes, in its sole and
absolute discretion, that (a) the appraiser
and the appraisal report (including the
supporting work product) appear reliable, and
(b) that the aggregate value of Coast's
interest in all Collateral (exclusive of the
amount of the Cash
22
<PAGE> 24
CREDIT COAST BUSINESS CREDIT SCHEDULE TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deposit proposed to be released to
Borrower) is more than adequate to
cover then-current and anticipated
Obligations of Borrower to Coast,
Coast will release to Borrower all or
such portion of the Cash Deposit equal
to the LESSER of (i) the entire Cash
Deposit or (ii) eighty percent (80%)
of the forced liquidation value of the
Machinery and Equipment (owned by
Borrower and free and clear of liens
and security interests [other than
Coast]), as indicated in the
appraisal. If the Cash Deposit is
returned in whole or in part to
Borrower, the principal balance of
Cash Backed Term Loan shall be reduced
by the amount of Cash Deposit returned
to Borrower and Term Note #1 shall be
canceled or amended and restated, as
the case may be, to reflect the
remaining principal balance, if any,
due thereunder (after crediting the
return of the Cash Deposit against the
then-outstanding obligations due under
Term Note #1).
(3) The principal balance of the Term
Loan in excess of the Cash Deposit
(assuming all or some of the Cash
Deposit is released to Borrower) shall
be evidenced by that certain Secured
Term Note #2 ("Term Note #2") which
will be in form substantially the same
as Term Note #1 except that Term Note
#2 shall be repayable as to principal
in equal monthly installments based on
a thirty-six (36) month amortization
rate with the monthly principal
installments commencing on the last
day of the first full calendar month
following release of the Cash Deposit
(or portions thereof) and the
execution and delivery of Term Note
#2. Interest on Term Note #2 shall
accrue at the rate and be payable in
the manner provided in Section 3.1 of
the Loan and Security Agreement.
(4) The outstanding balance of the
Term Loan (as evidenced by Term Note
#1 and, if applicable, Term Note #2)
including all principal, interest, and
other charges thereon or related
thereto, shall be fully due and
payable on the earlier of (a) November
30, 2000, (b) the Maturity Date as
provided in Section 9.1 of the Loan
and Security Agreement, or (c) the
effective date of termination as
provided in Section 9.2 of the Loan
and Security Agreement. The automatic
renewal provided in Section 9.1 of the
Loan and Security Agreement shall not
be applicable to extend the due date
of the Term Loan beyond November 30,
2000.
