from time to time, this "SECURITY AGREEMENT"), dated as of October 7, 2002, is
executed by Vari-L Corporation, Inc., a Colorado corporation (together with its
successors and assigns, "DEBTOR"), in favor of Sirenza Microdevices, Inc., a
Delaware corporation as secured party (together with its successors and assigns,
"SECURED PARTY").
RECITALS
A. Debtor and Secured Party have entered into a Loan Agreement, dated
as of the date hereof, which provides up to $5.3 million in term loans (as
amended, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time, the "LOAN
AGREEMENT").
B. In order to induce Secured Party to extend the credit evidenced by
the Loan Agreement, Debtor has agreed to enter into this Security Agreement and
to grant Secured Party the security interest in the Collateral described below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, Debtor hereby agrees with Secured Party as follows:
1. Definitions and Interpretation. When used in this Security
Agreement, the following terms have the following respective meanings:
"COLLATERAL" has the meaning given to that term in Section 2
hereof.
"OBLIGATIONS" means all loans, advances, debts, liabilities
and obligations, howsoever arising, owed by Debtor to the Secured Party of every
kind and description (whether or not evidenced by any note or instrument and
whether or not for the payment of money), now existing or hereafter arising
under or pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other
Loan Document, including, all interest, fees, charges, expenses, attorneys' fees
and costs and accountants' fees and costs chargeable to and payable by Debtor
hereunder and thereunder, in each case, whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, due or to become due, and whether or not arising after the
commencement of a proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C.
Section 101 et seq.), as amended from time to time (including post-petition
interest) and whether or not allowed or allowable as a claim in any such
proceeding.
"UCC" means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
State of California from time to time (and each reference in this Security
Agreement to an Article or Division thereof shall refer to that Article or
Division as from time to time in effect); provided, however, in the event that,
by reason of mandatory provisions of law, any or all of the perfection or
priority of the Secured Party's security interest in any Collateral is governed
by the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in a jurisdiction other than the
State of California, the term "UCC" shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code
(including the Articles or Divisions thereof) as in effect at such time in such
other jurisdiction for purposes of the provisions hereof relating to such
perfection or priority and for purposes of definitions related to such
provisions.
All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings given in the Loan Agreement. Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the UCC.
2. Grant of Security Interest. As security for the Obligations, Debtor
hereby pledges to Secured Party and grants to Secured Party a security interest
of first priority, subject only to Permitted Liens, in all right, title and
interests of Debtor in and to the property described in Attachment 1 hereto,
whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired (collectively, the
"COLLATERAL"). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, the
pledge and grant of a security interest as provided herein shall not extend to,
and the term "Collateral" shall not include: "intent-to-use" trademarks at all
times prior to the first use thereof, whether by the actual use thereof in
commerce, the recording of a statement of use with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or otherwise.
3. Representations and Warranties. Debtor represents and warrants to
Secured Party that:

against or to the Collateral, other than Permitted Liens; (ii) upon the filing
of UCC-1 financing statements in the appropriate filing offices, Secured Party

commercial value or determines that its rights
-4-
thereunder are better preserved as a trade secret; (ii) make application to the
Patent and Trademark Office to register any registerable but unregistered

all rights to such inventions, including patents and patent applications, to
Debtor and further requiring such employee to cooperate fully with Debtor, its

prosecution of any patent application or in any litigation involving the
invention, whether such cooperation is required during such employee's
employment with Debtor or after the termination of such employment.
6. Authorized Action by Secured Party. Debtor hereby irrevocably
appoints Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled
with an interest) and agrees that Secured Party may perform (but Secured Party
shall not be obligated to and shall incur no liability to Debtor or any third
party for failure so to do) any act which Debtor is obligated by this Security
Agreement to perform, and to exercise such rights and powers as Debtor might
exercise with respect to the Collateral, including the right to (a) collect by
legal proceedings or otherwise and endorse, receive and receipt for all
dividends, interest, payments, proceeds and other sums and property now or

exercise such powers during the continuance of an Event of Default. Debtor
agrees to reimburse Secured Party upon demand for any reasonable costs and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, Secured Party may incur while acting as
Debtor's attorney-in-fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses are
included in the Obligations. It is further agreed and understood between the
parties hereto that such care as Secured Party gives to the safekeeping of its
own property of like kind shall constitute reasonable care of the Collateral
when in Secured Party's possession; provided, however, that Secured Party shall
not be required to make any presentment, demand or protest, or give any notice
and need not take any action to preserve any rights against any prior party or
any other person in connection with the Obligations or with respect to the
Collateral.
7. Litigation and Other Proceedings. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the right but not
the obligation to bring suit or institute proceedings in the name of Debtor or
Secured Party to enforce any rights in the Collateral, including any license
thereunder, in
-5-
which event Debtor shall at the request of Secured Party do any and all lawful
acts and execute any and all documents reasonably required by Secured Party in
aid of such enforcement. If Secured Party elects not to bring suit to enforce
any right under the Collateral, including any license thereunder, Debtor agrees
to use all reasonable measures, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to
cause to cease any infringement of any right under the Collateral by any Person
and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or
proceeding against any Person so infringing necessary to prevent such
infringement.
8. Default and Remedies.
(a) Default. Debtor shall be deemed in default under this
Security Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default.
(b) Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any such Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the rights of a secured
creditor under the UCC, all rights granted by this Security Agreement and by
law, including the right to: (a) require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and
make it available to Secured Party at a place to be designated by Secured Party;
and (b) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or
recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the
extent Secured Party deems appropriate and in connection with such preparation
and disposition, without charge, use any trademark, trade name, copyright,
patent or technical process used by Debtor. Debtor hereby agrees that ten (10)
days' notice of any intended sale or disposition of any Collateral is
reasonable. In furtherance of Secured Party's rights hereunder, Debtor hereby
grants to Secured Party an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable
without royalty or other payment by Secured Party, but only in connection with
the exercise of remedies hereunder) to use, license or sublicense any patent,
trademark, trade name, copyright or other intellectual property in which Debtor
now or hereafter has any right, title or interest together with the right of
access to all media in which any of the foregoing may be recorded or stored.

requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications to or upon
Debtor or Secured Party under this Security Agreement shall be made in
accordance with Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement.
(b) Nonwaiver. No failure or delay on Secured Party's part in
exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other
right nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any
other further exercise thereof or of any other right.
(c) Amendments and Waivers. This Security Agreement may not be
amended or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written
instruments signed by Debtor and Secured Party. Each waiver or consent under any
provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instances for the
purpose for which given.
(d) Assignments. This Security Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of Secured Party and Debtor and their respective
successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither Secured Party nor Debtor
may sell, assign or delegate their respective rights and obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that Lender
may assign or transfer, without Debtor's prior written consent, its respective
rights and obligations under this Security Agreement in connection with the
merger or consolidation of Lender with or into another Person.
(e) Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of
Secured Party under this Security Agreement shall be in addition to all rights,
powers and remedies given to Secured Party by virtue of
-6-
any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, the Loan
Documents or any other agreement, all of which rights, powers, and remedies
shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without
impairing Secured Party's rights hereunder. Debtor waives any right to require
Secured Party to proceed against any Person or to exhaust any Collateral or to
pursue any remedy in Secured Party's power.
(f) Payments Free of Taxes, Etc. All payments made by Debtor
under the Loan Documents shall be made by Debtor free and clear of and without

obtained and made and that all requisite taxes, levies and charges have been
paid.
(g) Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this
Security Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any
respect under the law or any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement nor the
legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any
other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(h) Expenses. Debtor shall pay on demand all reasonable fees
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by
Secured Party in connection with custody, preservation or sale of, or other
realization on, any of the Collateral or the enforcement or attempt to enforce
any of the Obligations which is not performed as and when required by this
Security Agreement.
(i) Headings. Headings in this Security Agreement and each of
the other Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only and are not part

(k) Construction. Each of this Security Agreement and the
other Loan Documents is the result of negotiations among, and has been reviewed
by, Debtor, Secured Party and their respective counsel. Accordingly, this
Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to be the
product of all parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of
or against Debtor or Secured Party.
(l) Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement and each of the
other Loan Documents, taken together, constitute and contain the entire
agreement of Debtor and Secured Party and supersede any and all prior
agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications
