This SUBORDINATED TERM LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 23, 2017, is entered into by and between B. RILEY PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lender”), and SONIM TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), with reference to the following facts:

RECITALS

Borrower has requested that Lender make available to Borrower one or more loans or other extensions of credit from time to time, and Lender is willing to make such loans or other extensions of credit, on and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.  This Agreement sets forth the terms on which Lender will advance credit to Borrower, and Borrower will repay the amounts owing to Lender.

NOW, THEREFORE the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.1Definitions.  As used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the recitals hereto), capitalized terms shall have the respective meanings set forth on Exhibit A.  Any term that is used in this Agreement without definition and is defined in the UCC shall have the meaning given to such term in the UCC.

1.2Accounting Terms.  Any accounting term not specifically defined on Exhibit A shall be construed in accordance with GAAP or IFRS, consistently applied.  The term “financial statements” shall include the accompanying notes and schedules.

1.3Other Definitional Terms; Rules of Interpretation.  The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  References to Sections, subsections, Exhibits, Schedules and the like, are to Sections and subsections of, or Exhibits or Schedules attached to, this Agreement unless otherwise expressly provided.  The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Unless the context in which used herein otherwise clearly requires, “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” Defined terms include in the singular number the plural and in the plural number the singular.  Reference to any agreement (including the Loan Documents), document or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or modified and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof (and, if applicable, in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents), except where otherwise explicitly provided, and reference to any promissory note includes any promissory note which is an extension or renewal thereof or a substitute or replacement therefor.  Reference to any law, rule, regulation, order, decree, requirement, policy, guideline, directive or interpretation means as amended, modified, codified, replaced or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect on the determination date, including rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

2.1Credit Extensions.  

(a)Promise to Pay.  Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to Lender, in lawful

money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by Lender to Borrower, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at the rates set forth herein, and all other Obligations owing by Borrower to Lender, in each case as and when due in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b)Term Loan.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to lend

to Borrower from time to time during the Term Loan Availability Period, advances under the Term Loan (each a “Term Loan Advance” and collectively the “Term Loan Advances”) in an aggregate original principal amount not to

exceed the Term Loan Commitment.  The first Term Loan Advance, in the original principal amount of up to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), shall be made on the date during the Term Loan Availability Period that Borrower specifies in the initial Advance Request.   Borrower may request additional Term Loan Advances after the initial Term Loan Advance, provided that at no time shall the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loan Advances hereunder exceed the Term Loan Commitment.  The proposed uses of the proceeds of each Term Loan Advance shall be specified in the Advance Request for such Credit Extension; Term Loan Advance proceeds may be used for (x) working capital purposes as specified by Borrower in its Advance Request, (y) for other purposes in the ordinary course of business specified by Borrower in its Advance Request and approved by Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and (z) for other purposes not in the ordinary course of business specified by Borrower in its Advance Request and approved by Lender in its sole discretion.  Without Lender’s prior written consent, Term Loan Advance proceeds may not be used (i) to repay any indebtedness for borrowed money other than (A) the Senior Debt and (B) up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) of the Indebtedness disclosed in Schedule 5.4 of the Disclosure Schedules, (ii) for repurchases or redemptions of equity securities, (iii) for bonuses or similar non-regular-salary payments to Borrower’s officers, unless such payments have been approved by the Board, or (iv) for any use contrary to the use stated in the related Advance Request.  Term Loan Advances shall be requested and funded in a minimum principal amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) each; provided, however, that a Term Loan Advance may be for less than this minimum principal amount with the consent of Lender or if the proceeds thereof are to be used to pay Lender Expenses.  Borrower authorizes Lender to make Term Loan Advances for Lender Expenses upon  notice to Borrower but without the requirement of an Advance Request or any other action or approval by Borrower. When repaid, the Term Loan Advances may not be re-borrowed.  The Term Loan Advances shall be evidenced by the Term Loan Note.   Lender may, from time to time, make Term Loan Advances, without Borrower’s consent, to cure Events of Default under the Senior Loan Agreement, to the extent provided for in the Subordination Agreement.

2.2Interest Rates, Payments, and Calculations.  

(a)Interest Rates.  Except as set forth in Section 2.2(b), the outstanding principal amount of

the Term Loan shall accrue interest at a fixed annual rate of ten percent (10.0%) per annum.

(b)Default Rate.  If any payment is not made within 10 days after the date such payment is

due, Borrower shall pay Lender a late fee equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law.  All Obligations shall bear interest during a Default Period at a rate equal to 5 percentage points above the interest rate applicable to such Obligations immediately prior to such Default Period.

(c)Interest and Principal Payments.  For the period commencing on the Effective Date and

ending on the first anniversary thereof, interest shall accrue and on and as of such anniversary date, such interest shall be compounded and be added to the Term Loan principal outstanding and shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate applicable hereunder.  Interest shall be due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the period commencing on the first anniversary of the Effective Date.  Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by being becoming part of the Obligations and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate applicable hereunder.  All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest and the Term Loan principal outstanding are due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.  

(d)Voluntary Prepayment.  Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Term Loan at any

time and from time to time, in whole or in part, provided that Borrower (i) provides written notice to Lender of its election to prepay the Term Loan Advances at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment (the “Notice Period”), and (ii) pays, on the date of such prepayment (A) the principal amount to be prepaid, plus (B) all accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loan Advances to the date of prepayment, plus (C) the Prepayment Charge, plus (F) all other Obligations, if any, that shall have become due and payable.  During the Notice Period, Lender may elect to exercise its right, as provided in the Note, to convert the Convertible Amount, as defined in the Note, into Series A-2 Preferred, and if Lender exercises such right, Borrower’s prepayment election shall not apply to the Convertible Amount.  

2

(e)Computation of Interest.  All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be

computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

2.3Crediting Payments.  

(a)Lender will apply any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment Lender

may receive to conditionally reduce Obligations, but such applications of funds shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Lender after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Lender as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.  Whenever any payment to Lender under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

(b)Lender may initiate debit entries to any of Borrower’s deposit accounts as authorized on

an automatic payment authorization for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Lender when due (each a “Designated Deposit Account”).  These debits shall not constitute a set-off.  If the ACH payment arrangement is terminated for any reason, Borrower shall make all payments due to Lender at Lender’s address specified in Section 10.

2.4Lender Expenses.  Borrower shall  reimburse Lender for all Lender Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due (or, if no stated due date, within two (2) Business Days after demand by Lender).  

2.5Additional Costs.  If Lender shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Lender or any person or entity controlling Lender (a "Lender Parent") as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 5 days after demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such reduction. A statement of Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.5 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section 2.5 for any amounts incurred more than 6 months prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 6-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of Borrower arising pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall survive the Maturity Date, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all Obligations.

2.6Taxes.  

(a)All payments by Borrower to or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or

under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that, if Borrower shall be required by any applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then:  (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable

3

under this Section 2.6(a)), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions; and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.6(a), Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the

full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under Section 2.6(a)) paid by Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)If requested in writing by Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender, as soon as

practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(e)If Lender receives a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been

indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.6(a) Lender shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under Section 2.6(a) with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out of pocket expenses of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Borrower, upon the request of Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This Section 2.6(e) shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person

2.7Term.  This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall continue in full force and effect for so long as any Obligations remain outstanding or Lender has any obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice during a Default Period.

3.1Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of this Agreement.  This Agreement shall become a binding agreement between Lender and Borrower upon the satisfaction on the following conditions precedent (the date such condition precedents are satisfied the “Effective Date”):

(c)Senior Lender shall have consented to the extension of the Term Loan on the terms and

other matters, as Lender may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate.

3.2Conditions Precedent to Credit Extensions.  The obligation of Lender to make each Credit Extension hereunder, including the initial Credit Extension, on or after the Effective Date is subject to the satisfaction or waiver by Lender on (or in the case of the conditions set forth in clauses (a) – (c), which are applicable to the initial Credit Extension, on or prior to) the date that Borrower requests that such Credit Extension be made, of each of the following conditions:

(a)consummation of the Initial Closing, as defined in the Series A Preferred Stock Secondary Purchase Agreement to be entered into by Borrower and the Sellers and the Purchasers named therein;  

(b)Borrower shall have entered into a binding commitment, on terms and conditions

(d)timely receipt by Lender of an executed Advance Request;  

(e)the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 shall be true and correct in all

material respects on and as of the date of such Advance Request and on the effective date of each Credit Extension as though made at and as of each such date (provided, however, that those representations and warranties expressly referring to another date shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of such other date); and

(f)no Potential Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or would

exist after giving effect to such Credit Extension.

The making of each Credit Extension shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower on the date of such Credit Extension as to the accuracy of the facts referred to in this Section 3.2.

4.1Grant of Security Interest.  Borrower grants and pledges to Lender a continuing security interest in and Lien on the Collateral, whether now or hereafter owned, existing, acquired or arising and wherever now or hereafter located, to secure the prompt repayment of any and all Obligations and to secure the prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents.  Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedules, and subject only to the Senior Lien and Permitted Liens that may have priority by operation of law, such security interest constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in all presently existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in later-acquired Collateral, subject only to the Senior Lien and such Permitted Liens.  Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, Lender’s Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding.

4.2Perfection of Security Interest.  Borrower authorizes Lender to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that (i) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as all assets of Borrower of the kind pledged hereunder, and (ii) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether Borrower is an organization, the type

5

of organization and any organizational identification number issued to Borrower, if applicable.  Borrower shall from time to time endorse and deliver to Lender, at the request of Lender, all Negotiable Collateral and other documents that Lender may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Lender, to perfect and continue perfected Lender’s security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.  Borrower shall have possession of the Collateral, except where expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or where Lender chooses to perfect its security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement.  Where Material Collateral is in possession of a third party bailee, Borrower shall take such steps as Lender reasonably requests for Lender to (i) obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, of the bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of Lender, (ii) obtain “control” of any Collateral consisting of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper (as such items and the term “control” are defined in Division 9 of the Code) by causing the securities intermediary or depositary institution or issuing bank to execute a control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.  Borrower will not create any chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper acceptable to Lender indicating that Lender has a security interest in the chattel paper.  Borrower from time to time may deposit with Lender specific cash collateral to secure specific Obligations; Borrower authorizes Lender to hold such specific balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any request by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the specific Obligations are outstanding.

4.3Pledge of Shares.  Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Lender a security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the “Shares Collateral”; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Shares Collateral” shall not include securities representing at any time more than 65% of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock of a “controlled foreign corporation,” as defined in Section 957 of the IRC), as security for the performance of the Obligations.  The certificate or certificates for the Shares, if any, will be delivered to Lender, accompanied by an instrument of assignment undated and duly executed in blank by Borrower, and Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose shares are part of the Shares and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may effect the transfer of the Shares into the name of Lender and cause new certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Lender or its transferee.  Borrower will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Lender may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of Lender’s security interest in the Shares.  Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms.  All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.

4.4Assignment of Insurance.  As additional security for the payment and performance of the Obligations and subject to the security interest of Senior Lender, Borrower hereby assigns to Lender any and all monies (including proceeds of insurance and refunds of unearned premiums) due or to become due under, and all other rights of Borrower with respect to, any and all policies of insurance now or at any time hereafter covering the Collateral or any evidence thereof or any business records or valuable papers pertaining thereto, and Borrower hereby directs the issuer of any such policy to pay all such monies directly to Lender.  At any time, whether or not a Default Period is then in effect, Lender may (but need not), in Lender’s name or in Borrower’s name, execute and deliver proof of claim, receive all such monies, endorse checks and other instruments representing payment of such monies, and adjust, litigate, compromise or release any claim against the issuer of any such policy.  Any monies received as payment for any loss under any insurance policy mentioned above (other than liability insurance policies) or as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid over to Lender to be applied, at the option of Lender, either to the prepayment of the Obligations or shall be disbursed to Borrower under staged payment terms reasonably satisfactory to Lender for application to the cost of repairs, replacements, or restorations.  

6

Any such repairs, replacements, or restorations shall be effected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value of the items or property destroyed prior to such damage or destruction.

Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

5.1Valid Existence and Qualification.  Borrower and each Subsidiary is a corporation duly existing under the laws of the state or other jurisdiction in which it is incorporated and qualified and licensed to do business in any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

5.2Due Authorization; No Conflict.  The execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents are within Borrower’s powers, have been duly authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained in Borrower’s organizational documents, nor will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound.  Borrower is not in default under any agreement by which it is bound, except to the extent such default would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

5.3Enforceability.  The Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party are the legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower and are enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

registered patents, applications for patents, registered trademarks, applications to register trademarks, service marks, applications to register service marks, registered mask works, trade dress and registered copyrights for which Borrower is the owner of record (the “Intellectual Property”).  Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedules and except for Permitted Liens, (i) Borrower owns the Intellectual Property free and clear of all restrictions (including covenants not to sue a third party), court orders, injunctions, decrees, writs or Liens, whether by written agreement or otherwise, (ii) no Person other than Borrower owns or has been granted any right in the Intellectual Property, (iii) all Intellectual Property (other than applications that have yet to be granted) is valid, subsisting and enforceable and (iv) Borrower has taken all commercially reasonable action necessary to maintain and protect the Intellectual Property that is material to its business.  The use of such Intellectual Property by Borrower and the operation of its businesses do not infringe any valid and enforceable intellectual property rights of any other Person, except to the extent any such infringement could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.  No slogan or other advertising device, product, process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now

7

with (i) the Patriot Act in all material respects and (ii) any applicable Anti Money Laundering Laws or any applicable Sanctions requirements of law that in each case are binding on them, except in the case of this clause (ii) where the failure to be in compliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.  To the knowledge of management of the Borrower, none of the Loan Parties, their respective Subsidiaries, their respective officers or directors is an Embargoed Person.

9.1Rights and Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:

(a)Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.5, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Lender);

(b)Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Lender;

(c)Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms

and in whatever order Lender reasonably considers advisable;

(d)Make such payments and do such acts as Lender considers necessary or reasonable to

protect its security interest in the Collateral.  Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Lender so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Lender as Lender may designate.  Borrower authorizes Lender to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Lender’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.  With respect to any of Borrower’s owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Lender a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Lender’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

(e)Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all indebtedness at any time owing to or for

the credit or the account of Borrower held by Lender;

(f)Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale,

and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral.  Lender is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, 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, in connection with Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Lender’s benefit;

(g)Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more

contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Lender determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Lender deems appropriate.  Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral.  Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like.  This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.  If Lender sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Lender, and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser.  If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the

Collateral and Borrower shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale;

(h)Lender may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and

(i)Apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Collateral, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the

19

Obligations and without regard to the solvency of Borrower, any guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations.

Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.  Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

9.2Power of Attorney.  Effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender (and any of Lender’s designated officers, or employees) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney to:  (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Lender’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Lender’s possession, cash or deposit such checks or other items of payment or security, and apply to the Obligations all proceeds of such checks or other items; (c) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral and apply all cash sale proceeds to the Obligations; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower’s policies of insurance and apply to the Obligations all amounts received by Lender pursuant to such policies; (f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Lender determines to be reasonable, and apply to the Obligations all amounts received by Lender in connection with any such settlement and adjustment; (g) enter into a short-form intellectual property security agreement consistent with the terms of this Agreement for recording purposes only or modify, in its sole discretion, any intellectual property security agreement entered into between Borrower and Lender without first obtaining Borrower’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending the schedules thereto, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by Borrower after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which Borrower no longer has or claims to have any right, title or interest; and (h) file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral; provided Lender may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in clause (g) above, regardless of whether a Default Period is in effect.  The appointment of Lender as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Lender’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Lender’s obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated.

9.3Accounts Collection.  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (a) Lender may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Lender’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account; and (b) Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Lender, receive in trust all payments as Lender’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Lender in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

9.4Lender Expenses.  If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Lender may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower:  (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; or (b) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.5, and take any action with respect to such policies as Lender deems prudent.  Any amounts so paid or deposited by Lender shall constitute Lender Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral.  Any payments made by Lender shall not constitute an agreement by Lender to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Lender of any Event of Default under this Agreement.

9.5Lender’s Liability for Collateral.  Lender has no obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.  All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

20

9.6No Obligation to Pursue Others.  Lender has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other person liable for them and Lender may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Lender’s rights against Borrower.  Borrower waives any right it may have to require Lender to pursue any other Person for any of the Obligations.

9.7Remedies Cumulative.  Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.  Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  No exercise by Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender of any Event of Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver.  No delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.  No waiver by Lender shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Lender and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.  Borrower expressly agrees that this Section 9.6 may not be waived or modified by Lender by course of performance, conduct, estoppel or otherwise.

9.8Demand; Protest.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment and any other notices relating to the Obligations.

All notices or demands by any party relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith shall be in writing and (except for financial statements and other informational documents which may be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid or e-mail) shall be personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight delivery service, certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telefacsimile to Borrower or to Lender, as the case may be, at its addresses set forth below:

11.3JUDICIAL REFERENCE PROVISION.  WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Los Angeles County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court.  The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive.  The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers.  All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential, and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed.  If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief.  The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings.  The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings.  The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge.  The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure§ 644(a).  Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies.  The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

12.1Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall bind all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Borrower without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or

22

withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.  Lender shall have the right without the consent of or notice to Borrower to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Lender’s obligations, rights and benefits hereunder.

12.2Indemnification.  Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Lender and its officers, employees, and agents against:  (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (b) all losses or Lender Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Lender, its officers, employees and agents as a result of or in any way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Lender and Borrower whether under this Agreement, or otherwise (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for losses caused by Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct,

12.6Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.

12.7Survival.  All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) remain outstanding or Lender has any obligation to make any Credit Extension to Borrower.  The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Lender with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 12.2 shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Lender have run.

12.8Confidentiality.  In handling any confidential information, Lender and all employees and agents of Lender shall exercise the same degree of care that Lender exercises with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received pursuant to this Agreement except that disclosure of such information may be made (i) to the subsidiaries or Affiliates of Lender in connection with their present or prospective business relations with Borrower, (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, provided that they have entered into a comparable confidentiality agreement in favor of Borrower and have delivered a copy to Borrower, (iii) as required by law, regulations, rule or order, subpoena, judicial order or similar order, (iv) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of Lender, (v) to Lender’s accountants, auditors and regulations, and (vi) as Lender may determine in connection with the enforcement of any remedies hereunder.  Confidential information hereunder shall not include information that either:  (a) is in the public domain or in the knowledge or possession of Lender when disclosed to Lender, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Lender through no fault of Lender; or (b) is disclosed to Lender by a third party, provided Lender does not have actual knowledge that such third party is prohibited from disclosing such information.

(“FBR”), a subsidiary of Lender, to serve as Borrower’s financial advisor with respect to the credit facility that Lender is extending hereunder and other financing transactions that Borrower and its current stockholders are undertaking.   Borrower further acknowledges that FBR, under the terms of its engagement with Borrower, will receive compensation in connection with the closing of the credit facility hereunder, as well as in connection with the other financing transactions when they are consummated.  Borrower waives any conflict that might exist as a result of FBR’s role as financial advisor with respect to the credit facility that Lender is extending hereunder, and with respect to the financing transactions for which FBR is advising Borrower.  Borrower further waives any defense to payment of any portion of the compensation due to FBR in connection with the closing of the credit facility hereunder based on the relationship between FBR and Lender, as well as any defense to payment of any portion of the compensation due to FBR with respect to other financing transactions covered by Borrower’s engagement of FBR based on such relationship.
