Hereinafter, the Security Documents, together with all other documents evidencing or securing the Obligations shall be referred to as the “Existing Loan Documents”.

3. JOINDER AND ASSUMPTION. Each New Borrower hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the other appropriate Loan Documents, and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and each of the other appropriate Loan Documents, as if New Borrower were originally named a “Borrower” and/or a “Debtor” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, each New Borrower hereby assumes and agrees to pay and perform when due all present and future indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of each Existing Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. From and after the date hereof, all references in the Loan Documents to “Borrower” and/or “Debtor” shall be deemed to refer to and include each New Borrower. Further, all present and future Obligations of each Existing Borrower shall be deemed to refer to all present and future Obligations of New Borrower. Each New Borrower acknowledges that the Obligations are due and owing to Bank from Borrower (including, without limitation, each New Borrower), without any defense, offset or counterclaim of any kind or nature whatsoever as of the date hereof.

4. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations, each New US Borrower hereby grants to Bank a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of such New Borrower’s now existing or hereafter arising rights and interest in the Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired, or arising, and wherever located, including, without limitation, all of each such New US Borrower’s assets listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and all of each such New US Borrower’s respective books relating to the foregoing and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above and all substitutions for,

additions, attachments, accessories, accessions and improvements to and replacements, products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of any or all of the foregoing.

If any New US Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim, such New Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by such New US Borrower of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of the Loan Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank. Each New US Borrower further covenants and agrees that by its execution hereof it shall provide all such information, complete all such forms, and take all such actions, and enter into all such agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank that are reasonably deemed necessary by Bank in order to grant and continue a valid, first perfected security interest to Bank in the Collateral. Each New US Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to any Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions in order to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either such New US Borrower or any other Person, may be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code. Such financing statements may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in Bank’s discretion.

5. SUBROGATION AND SIMILAR RIGHTS. Borrower (in each case including, without limitation, New Borrower) waives any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law. Borrower waives any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Modification Agreement, the Loan Agreement, or other Loan Documents, Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating such Borrower to the rights of Bank under the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by a Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by any Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to any Borrower in contravention of this section or otherwise under the Loan Documents, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of any Borrower are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to each New Borrower, with the same force and effect as if each such New Borrower was originally named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents; provided, that those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date shall be true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of such date. In addition, each Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that this Loan Modification Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each such Borrower, and, subject to the Reservations, constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

The Loan Agreement shall be amended by inserting the following new Section 2.1.6 immediately following Section 2.1.5 thereof:

“2.1.6 Term Loan 2011.

(a) Availability; Use of Proceeds. Bank shall make one (1) term loan available to Borrower in the amount of the Term Loan 2011 Amount on the First Loan Modification Effective Date subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Term Loan 2011 to (i) repay all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the existing Term Loan, in an amount equal to the amount indicated in the Funds Flow attached as Exhibit C to the First Loan Modification Agreement.

(b) Repayment. Borrower shall repay the Term Loan 2011 (i) in sixty (60) equal installments of principal, based on a sixty (60) month amortization schedule, plus (ii) monthly payments of accrued interest (each such payment being a “Term Loan 2011 Payment”). Beginning on the first Payment Date following the Funding Date each Term Loan 2011 Payment shall be payable on each successive Payment Date. Borrower’s final Term Loan 2011 Payment, due on the Term Loan 2011 Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term Loan 2011. Once repaid, the Term Loan 2011 may not be reborrowed.

(c) Prepayment. The Term Loan 2011 may be prepaid, in whole or in part prior to the Term Loan 2011 Maturity Date by Borrower, effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of such prepayment is given to Bank. Notwithstanding any such prepayment, Bank’s lien and security interest in the Collateral shall continue until Borrower fully satisfies its Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations). If such prepayment is at Borrower’s election or at Bank’s election due to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Bank, in addition to the payment of any other expenses or fees then-owing, a prepayment premium in an amount equal to (i) if such prepayment occurs after the First Loan Modification Effective Date but prior to the First Anniversary, two percent (2.00%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan 2011 Amount; (ii) if such prepayment occurs on or after the First Anniversary but prior to the Second Anniversary, one and one-half percent (1.50%) of the Term Loan 2011 Amount; (iii) if such prepayment occurs on or after the Second Anniversary but prior to the Third Anniversary, one percent (1.00%) of the Term Loan 2011 Amount; and (iv) if such prepayment occurs on or after the Third Anniversary, zero percent (0.00%); providedthat no prepayment premium shall be charged if the Term Loan 2011 is replaced with a new facility from Bank or another division of Silicon Valley Bank. Upon payment in full of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall terminate and release its liens and security interests in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

(d) Solvency. Borrower represents and warrants that, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the PEX Acquisition Documents, Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

The Loan Agreement shall be amended by inserting the following new Section 2.3(a)(iii) immediately following Section 2.3(a)(ii) thereof:

“(iii) Term Loan 2011. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan 2011 shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus three and three-quarters percent (3.75%) provided, however, during a Performance Pricing Period, the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan 2011 shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus two and three-quarters percent (2.75%), which interest shall in any event be payable monthly.”

The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting the following Section 2.6 thereof:

Borrower will, upon request, furnish Bank with proof satisfactory to Bank indicating that Borrower has made such withholding payment provided, however, that Borrower need not make any withholding payment if the amount or validity of such withholding payment is contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings and as to which payment in full is bonded or reserved against by Borrower. The agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 2.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement."
