Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as follows:
1. ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed following
GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The term
"financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms "including"

2. LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
2.1 Promise to Pay.
Borrower promises to pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit
Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions.
2.1.1 Revolving Advances.
(a) Bank will make Advances not exceeding the lesser of (i) the
Committed Revolving Line minus the Sublimit Utilization Amount and
(ii) the Borrowing Base minus the sum of (a) the Sublimit Utilization
Amount and (b) an amount equal to 65% of the sum of the outstanding
principal balance of the Equipment Advances. Amounts borrowed under
this Section may be repaid (without penalty except for penalties which

of this Agreement.
(b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile

Advance is to be made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification
by delivering to Bank the Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B.
Bank will credit Advances to Borrower's deposit account. Bank may make
Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible
Officer or his or her authorized designee or without instructions if
the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due.
Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank
reasonably believes is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower
will indemnify Bank for any loss Bank suffers due to such reliance.
(c) The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving
Maturity Date, when all Advances are immediately payable.
(d) Bank's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the
Obligations will terminate if, in Bank's sole discretion, there has
been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management,
results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or the
-1-
prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse
deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented
to and accepted by Bank prior to the execution of this Agreement.
2.1.2 Letters of Credit Sublimit.
Bank will issue or have issued Letters of Credit for Borrower's account not
exceeding the lesser of (i) the Committed Revolving Line minus the sum of (a)

reimbursement obligation will be secured by cash on terms acceptable to Bank on
or before the Revolving Maturity Date if the term of this Agreement is not
extended by Bank. Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in
connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request.
2.1.3 Foreign Exchange Sublimit.
If there is availability under the Committed Revolving Line and the
Borrowing Base, then Borrower may enter in foreign exchange forward contracts
with the Bank under which Borrower commits to purchase from or sell to Bank a
set amount of foreign currency more than one business day after the contract
date (the "FX Forward Contract"). Bank will subtract 10% of each outstanding FX
Forward Contract from the foreign exchange sublimit which is a maximum of the

-2-
deposit of payroll, business credit card, and check cashing services identified
in various cash management services agreements related to such services (the
"Cash Management Services"). Such aggregate amounts utilized under the Cash
Management Services Sublimit will at all times reduce the amount otherwise
available to be borrowed under the Committed Revolving Line. Any amounts Bank
pays on behalf of Borrower or any amounts that are not paid by Borrower for any
Cash Management Services will be treated as Advances under the Committed
Revolving Line and will accrue interest at the rate for Advances.

Bank will make advances ("Equipment Advance" and, collectively, "Equipment
Advances") not exceeding the lesser of the Committed Equipment Line and,

Equipment Advances may only be used to (i) repay amounts owing to Comerica
Bank-California and (ii) finance or refinance Equipment purchased on or
after 180 days before the date of each Equipment Advance and may not exceed
100% of the equipment invoice excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges,

furnishings. Software, tenant improvements, and other soft costs (including

initial Equipment Advance.
(b) Interest accrues from the date of each Equipment Advance at the
rate in Section 2.3(a) and is payable monthly until the Equipment
Availability End Date occurs. Equipment Advances outstanding on the
Equipment Availability End Date are payable in 36 equal consecutive monthly
installments of principal, plus accrued interest, beginning on the 1st of
each month following the Equipment Availability End Date and ending 36
months thereafter (each, an "Equipment Maturity Date"). Equipment Advances
when repaid may not be reborrowed.
(c) To obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower must notify Bank (the
notice is irrevocable) by facsimile no later than 12:00 p.m. Pacific time 1
Business Day before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made.
The notice in the form of Exhibit B (Payment/Advance Form) must be signed
by a Responsible Officer or authorized designee and include a copy of the
invoice for the Equipment being financed.
2.2 Overadvances.
If Borrower's Obligations under Section 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3 and 2.1.4
exceed the lesser of either (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii) the

excess. If Borrower's obligations under the Committed Revolving Line and the
Committed Equipment Line exceed $5,000,000, Borrower must immediately pay Bank
the excess.

Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all presently
existing and later acquired Collateral to secure all Obligations and performance
of each of Borrower's duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted
Liens, any security interest will be a first priority security interest in the

so long as any Obligations are outstanding:
5.1 Due Organization and Authorization.
Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its
state of formation (or reincorporation) and qualified and licensed to do
business in, and in good standing in, any state in which the conduct of its
business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified, except

Adverse Change. Borrower has not changed its state of formation or its
organizational structure or type or any organizational number (if any) assigned
by its jurisdiction of formation.
The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been
duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's formation documents, nor
constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is
bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is
bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material
Adverse Change.

5.2 Collateral.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted
Liens. Borrower has no other deposit account, other than the deposit accounts
described in the Schedule (which Schedule Borrower may update from time to time

Borrower may update from time to time by written notice to Bank), (a) the
Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations, and the service or property has
been performed or delivered to the account debtor or its agent for immediate
shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor, and (b) the
Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as at a
warehouse). In the event that Borrower, after the date hereof, intends to store
or otherwise deliver the Collateral to such a bailee, then Borrower will receive
the prior written consent of Bank and such bailee must acknowledge in writing
that the bailee is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Bank. Except as
set forth in the Schedule (which Schedule Borrower may update from time to time
by written notice to Bank), Borrower has no notice of any actual or imminent
Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor whose accounts are an Eligible
Account in any Borrowing Base Certificate. All Inventory is in all material
respects of good and marketable quality, free from material defects. Borrower is
the sole owner of the Intellectual Property, except for non-exclusive licenses
granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Each Patent is
valid and enforceable and no part of the Intellectual Property has been judged
invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made that
any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party,
except to the extent such invalidity, unenforceability, judgment, or claim could
not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
5.3 Litigation.
Except as set forth in the Schedule (which Schedule Borrower may update
from time to time by written notice to Bank), there are no actions or
proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower's Responsible Officers,
threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary which could result in
damages or costs to Borrower or any Subsidiary of $100,000 or more, or in which
an adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change.
5.4 No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements.
All consolidated financial statements for Borrower, and any Subsidiary,
delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower's
consolidated financial condition and Borrower's consolidated results of
operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower's
consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial
statements submitted to Bank.

disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; the Borrower is
not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this
Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they

Regulations T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has
complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which
could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of
Borrower's or any Subsidiary's properties or assets has been used by Borrower or
any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by previous Persons, in
disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance
other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required
tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to pay, all material taxes,
except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP and
which do not result in any tax lien on any of the Collateral. Borrower and each
Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all
declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all government
authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted,
except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a
Material Adverse Change.
5.7 Subsidiaries.
Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity
securities except for Permitted Investments.
5.8 Full Disclosure.
No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any
certificate or written statement given to Bank (taken together with all such

statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading. It

9. BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
9.1 Rights and Remedies.
When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or
demand, do any or all of the following:
(a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of
Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and
payable without any action by Bank);
(b) Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit under
this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
(c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for
amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable;
(d) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable
to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the
Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may
enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of
any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien
which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all
expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its
premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies;
(e) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it
holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account
of Borrower;
(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for
sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is granted a
non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, Patents, Copyrights, Mask Works, rights of use of any name,
trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter,
or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in
connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower's
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank's benefit;
(g) Require Borrower to provide cash collateral in the face amount of all
undrawn Letters of Credit; and
(h) Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.
9.2 Power of Attorney.
Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower
irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower's name
on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower's name
on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account
debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under
-15-
Borrower's insurance policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about
the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank
determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or
a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the power of attorney to
sign Borrower's name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the
perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default
has occurred. Bank's appointment as Borrower's attorney in fact, and all of
Bank's rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all
Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to
provide Credit Extensions terminates.
9.3 Accounts Collection.
When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person
owing Borrower money of Bank's security interest in the funds and demand payment
of, and collect any Accounts, general intangibles and other Collateral, and, in
connection therewith, Borrower irrevocably authorizes Bank to endorse or sign
Borrower's name on all collections, receipts, instruments and other documents,
and, in Bank's good faith business judgment, to grant extensions of time to pay,
compromise claims and settle Accounts and general intangibles for less than face
value. When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower shall collect all
payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the
payments to Bank in the form received from the account debtor, with proper
endorsements for deposit.
9.4 Bank Expenses.
If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of
payment to third persons, Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain
insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the
policies Bank deems prudent. Any reasonable amounts paid by Bank are Bank
Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then
applicable rate and secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an
agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank's waiver of any Event
of Default.
9.5 Bank's Liability for Collateral.
If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and Section 9207 of the
Code, it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss
or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral;
or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person.
Borrower otherwise bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the
Collateral.
9.6 Remedies Cumulative.
Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and
all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided
under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is
not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing
waiver. Bank's delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is
effective unless signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific
instance and purpose for which it was given.
-16-
9.7 Demand Waiver.
Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment
and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release,
compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is
liable.
9.8 Collateral Control Provisions
Without limiting Bank's other rights and remedies, if an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the provisions of Exhibit E hereto (the "Collateral
Control Provisions") shall be effective, upon written notice by Bank to the
Borrower.
10. NOTICES
All notices or demands by any party about this Agreement or any other
related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by an
overnight delivery service, by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, or by facsimile to the addresses set forth at the beginning of this

11. CHOICE OF LAW, FORUM AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of
conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California.
BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR

part of, or any interest in, Bank's obligations, rights and benefits under this
Agreement.

matter, and supersedes prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements,
understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the
parties about the subject matter of this Agreement merge into this Agreement and
the Loan Documents.
12.6 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and
delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
12.7 Survival.
All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement
continue in full force while any Obligations remain outstanding. The obligations
of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank will survive until all statutes of
limitations for actions that may be brought against Bank have run.
12.8 Confidentiality.
In handling any confidential information, Bank will exercise the same
degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but
disclosure of information may be made (i) to Bank's subsidiaries or affiliates
in connection with their business with Borrower, (ii) to prospective transferees

Collateral Control and Related Provisions on Event of Default
Without limiting Bank's other rights and remedies, if an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the following provisions (the "Collateral Control
Provisions") shall be effective immediately upon notice by Bank to the Borrower:
(1) Schedules and Documents relating to Accounts. Borrower shall deliver to
Bank transaction reports and loan requests, schedules and assignments of all
Accounts, and schedules of collections, all on Bank's standard forms; provided,
however, that Borrower's failure to execute and deliver the same shall not
affect or limit Bank's security interest and other rights in all of Borrower's
Accounts. Together with each such schedule and assignment, or later if requested
by Bank, Borrower shall furnish Bank with copies (or, at Bank'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 Accounts, and Borrower warrants the genuineness of all of the
foregoing. Borrower shall also furnish to Bank an aged accounts receivable trial
balance in such form and at such intervals as Bank shall request. In addition,
Borrower shall deliver to Bank the originals of all instruments, chattel paper,
security agreements, guarantees and other documents and property evidencing or
securing any Accounts, immediately 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 Bank with copies of all credit memos from time to
time on request by Bank.
(2) Collection of Accounts. Borrower shall hold all payments on, and
proceeds of, Accounts and all other Collateral in trust for Bank, and Borrower
shall immediately deliver all such payments and proceeds to Bank in their
original form, duly endorsed, to be applied to the Obligations in such order as
Bank shall determine. Borrower agrees that it will not commingle such payments
and proceeds with any of Borrower's other funds or property, but will hold such
payments and proceeds separate and apart from such other funds and property and
in an express trust for Bank. Bank may, in its discretion, require that all
proceeds of Collateral be deposited by Borrower into a lockbox account, or such
other "blocked account" as Bank may specify, pursuant to a blocked account
agreement in such form as Bank may specify. Bank or its designee may, at any
time, notify Account Debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to Bank.
Nothing in this Exhibit limits the restrictions on Transfers of Collateral set
forth elsewhere in this Agreement.
(3) Loan Requests. Without limiting the right of Bank to cease making Loans
on an Event of Default, requests for Loans shall be in writing and shall be
accompanied by a current Transaction Report on Bank's standard form.
(4) Reserves. Without limiting the right of Bank to cease making Loans on
an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right, from time to time, to establish
and deduct the following reserves from the amount of Loans, Letters of Credit
and other financial accommodations under the lending formula(s) provided in the
Schedule: (a) reserves to reflect events, conditions, contingencies or risks
which, as determined by Bank in good faith, do or may affect adversely
-36-
(i) the Collateral or any other property which is security for the Obligations
or its value (including without limitation any increase in delinquencies of
Accounts), (ii) the assets, business or prospects of Borrower, or (iii) the
security interests and other rights of Bank in the Collateral (including the
enforceability, perfection and priority thereof); and (b) reserves to reflect
Bank's good faith belief that any collateral report or financial information
furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Bank is or may have been incomplete,
inaccurate or misleading in any material respect.
-37-
NEGATIVE PLEDGE AGREEMENT
This Negative Pledge Agreement is made as of June 17, 2002, by and between
California Micro Devices Corporation, a California corporation ("Borrower"), and
Silicon Valley Bank ("Bank").
RECITAL
Bank has agreed to make certain advances of money and to extend certain
financial accommodations to Borrower (the "Loans") in the amounts and manner set
forth in that certain Loan and Security Agreement by and between Bank and
Borrower dated June 17, 2002 (as the same may be amended, modified or
supplemented from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"; capitalized terms used
herein are used as defined in the Loan Agreement). Bank is willing to make the
Loans to Borrower, but only upon the condition, among others, that Borrower
shall provide to Bank a negative pledge in Borrower's Intellectual Property.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for good and valuable
consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be
legally bound, Borrower hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as
follows:
1. Borrower shall not sell, transfer, assign, mortgage, pledge, lease,
grant a security interest in, or encumber (other than transfers permitted under
Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement") any of Borrower's Intellectual Property
(including without limitation those Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and Mask
Works listed on Schedules A, B, C, and D hereto), without Bank's prior written
consent.
2. It shall be an event of default under the Loan Documents and under any
of the related documents between Borrower and Bank if there is a breach of any
term of this Negative Pledge Agreement.
