AGREEMENTS
1. Loan to Borrower. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Software Hosting Agreement between Borrower and Lender of even date herewith (the "Hosting Agreement"), Borrower may be required, after consultation with and approval by Lender, to purchase additional Hosting Servers, as that term is defined in the Hosting Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall from time to time make advances ("Advances") to Borrower during the period from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement. In no event shall Lender have any obligation to make Advances to Borrower following the occurrence of any Event of Default as defined in section 11 of this Agreement.
A. Advances. Advances shall be made only in amounts separately agreed between Lender and Borrower to be sufficient to purchase the additional Hosting Servers required by Lender. Each such Advance shall be evidenced by a promissory note (the "Promissory Note") with a term of [*] ([*]) [*] in substantially the form of the sample note attached hereto as Exhibit A. The terms of all such Promissory Notes are by this reference incorporated in this Agreement. The proceeds of each Advance shall only be used by Borrower to purchase the additional Hosting Servers for which that Advance is made.
B. Persons Authorized. Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower to make Advances only upon the written requests (including requests made by telex, telegraph or facsimile), of any one of the following persons (the "Responsible Officers" and each a "Responsible Officer"): Dave Peterschmidt, Jerry Kennelly and Randy Gottfried; each of whom is and shall be authorized to request Advances and direct the disposition of any Advance until written notice by Borrower of the revocation of such authority is received by Lender. Any Advance shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower when made in accordance with such a request. Requests for Advances shall be on the Borrowing Notice form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Any such Borrowing Notice shall be directed to the following Lender representative (or such other person as Lender may direct from time to time) for approval prior to disbursement: Shirish Nadkarni.
C. Assumption of Risk. It is important to Borrower that Borrower have the privilege of making requests for Advances by e mail, telex, telegraph or facsimile. Therefore, to induce Lender to lend funds in response to such requests, and in consideration for Lender's agreement to receive and consider such requests, BORROWER ASSUMES ALL RISK OF THE VALIDITY, AUTHENTICITY AND AUTHORIZATION OF SUCH REQUESTS, WHETHER OR NOT THE INDIVIDUAL MAKING SUCH REQUEST HAS AUTHORITY IN FACT TO REQUEST ADVANCES ON BEHALF OF BORROWER.

Borrower agrees to repay any sums, with interest as provided herein, that Lender so advances. Borrower agrees to give Lender prompt written confirmation of all e mail, telex, telegraph or facsimile requests for Advances; but Borrower's failure to do so, or the failure of such confirmation to reach Lender, shall not affect Borrower's assumption of the risk with respect to such Advance or reduce in any way the obligation of Borrower to repay with interest all amounts theretofore or thereafter advanced by Lender pursuant thereto.
D. Request for Advance. Each request for an Advance shall set forth the amount of such Advance and the date such Advance is to be made, such request to be received by Lender by 9:30 a.m., _________(PLACENAME), WA, USA time ten (10) full business days before such Advance is to be made.

If the date of the proposed Advance is not a business day, such Advance shall be effected on the next succeeding business day. Each request for an Advance shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.
E. Disbursement of Advances. Advances made and effected by Lender shall be disbursed by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the depository account set forth in Exhibit E hereto, or such other account as Borrower may designate from time to time by written notice to Lender signed by a Responsible Officer.

The (a) proceeds of any sale, (b) proceeds of any insurance received by Lender under any insurance policy obtained by any Borrower hereunder, and (c) any and all other moneys received by Lender with respect to the Documents, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall, except as otherwise specified in any applicable Document, be applied as follows
(i) first, to the payment of all expenses and charges, including expenses of any sale or retaking, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses or advances reasonably made or incurred by Lender, or on Lender's behalf, under the Documents upon an Event of Default, and to the payment of, and provision for adequate indemnity for, any taxes, assessments or liens prior to the lien of Lender;
(ii) second, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest under the Promissory Notes or New Notes;
(iii) third, to the payment of the unpaid principal balance under the Promissory Notes or New Note;

If the proceeds and other sums described in this section 14 are insufficient to pay in full all amounts due to Lender under the Documents, Borrower shall immediately pay such deficiency to Lender.
15. Modifications, Consents and Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder or under the Promissory Notes or New Notes or under any other Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Document, nor consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and consented to by Lender, and then such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

For purposes of this Agreement, an "transfer" under this Section shall be deemed to include, without limitation, the following: (a) a merger or any other combination of an entity with another party (other than a reincorporation of BBB from the State of _________(PLACENAME) to the State of Delaware), whether or not the entity is the surviving entity; (b) any transaction or series of transactions whereby a third party acquires direct or indirect power to control the management and policies of an entity, whether through the acquisition of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise; (c) in the case of BBB, the sale or other transfer of BBB's search engine business or any other substantial portion of BBB's assets (whether in a single transaction or series of transactions), or (d) the transfer of any rights or obligations in the course of a liquidation or other similar reorganization of an entity (other than a reincorporation of BBB from the State of _________(PLACENAME) to the State of Delaware).
20. Headings. Article and paragraph headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.
21. Severability. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision or provisions of this Agreement, the Promissory Notes, the New Note, or any other Document shall not render any other provision or provisions hereof or thereof unenforceable or invalid. If any rate of interest provided for herein is greater than that permitted under applicable law, such rate shall be automatically reduced to be the maximum permitted by law.
22. Additional Documents. Borrower shall at Lender's request, from time to time, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, execute, re execute, deliver and redeliver any and all documents, and do and perform such other and further acts, as may reasonably be required by Lender to enable Lender to perfect, preserve and protect Lender's security interest in the Collateral and Lender's and Lender's rights and remedies under this Agreement or granted by law and to carry out and effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement.

EXHIBIT D
Transfer of BBB
If BBB requests AAA's consent to a transfer as described in clause (a) of Section 19 of this Loan Agreement to which this Exhibit D is appended, and AAA reasonably withholds its consent to such transfer (an "Unconsented Transfer"), then BBB will nevertheless have the right to transfer this Agreement in connection with its proposed Unconsented Transfer subject to the following conditions precedent to the Unconsented Transfer:
(i) BBB, at its sole cost and expense, and without any financing supplied by AAA, will create a separate cluster of Hosting Servers for AAA required to service AAA's reasonably anticipated needs for a period of twelve months after the commencement of operation of such new and relocated cluster (provided however that AAA will purchase, or fund (in accordance with this Loan Agreement) BBB's purchase of (whichever AAA elects) any new hosting servers beyond the Hosting Servers purchased by BBB under the Software Hosting Agreement of even date herewith necessary to service AAA's reasonably anticipated needs as set forth above);
(ii) BBB will relocate, at its sole cost and expense (including, without limitation, indemnifying AAA and holding it harmless against any and all Taxes that arise as a direct or indirect result of the relocation of the Hosting Servers), all Hosting Servers referred to in clause (i) to a location designated by AAA, in its sole discretion;
(iii) BBB, at its sole cost and expense, will provide training to AAA personnel to the extent requested by AAA, to enable such personnel to use and maintain the AAA Search Engine, and to create enhancements thereto, with reasonable competence (all as determined by AAA in its sole discretion);
(iv) BBB will grant to AAA an irrevocable, non exclusive, royalty free license to use the Product (and all required underlying BBB Technology) solely in connection with AAA's operation of the AAA Search Engine (which license shall include the right to create enhancements and other derivative works based thereon for use in conjunction therewith) for such period as AAA may require to transition its search engine services to non BBB technology (the "Transition Period"), and BBB will waive all royalties otherwise payable pursuant to the Software Development Agreement and/or the Information Services Agreement of even date herewith; for the purposes of this clause (iv), the Transition Period will commence at such time as AAA assumes control over said separate cluster and begins itself operating the AAA Search Engine, and will continue thereafter for eighteen months (18) or until the termination of said Software Development Agreement and Information Services Agreement (whichever is longer);
(v) BBB will direct the Escrow Agent to release to AAA all Confidential Materials held by the Escrow Agent, subject to AAA's agreement to use such Confidential Materials only in connection with its licensed rights under clause (iv) above;
(vi) BBB will agree to reimburse AAA for all reasonable costs incurred by AAA in transitioning its search engine to non BBB technology (whether created by AAA or by a third party); and
(vii) BBB will cause the applicable proposed assignee, transferee or delegatee of obligation of this Agreement to assume, jointly and severally with BBB, all of BBB's obligations hereunder.
AAA will cooperate with BBB and use its reasonable best efforts so as to enable BBB to satisfy the foregoing conditions precedent in a timely manner. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions precedent, said Software Hosting Agreement shall be deemed terminated pursuant to Section 10.1 thereof.
Upon expiration of the Transition Period, all rights granted to AAA to use the Product (other than AAA Technology, Joint Derivative Technology and the AAA Derivative Technology) and/or any BBB Technology under the transitional license referred to in clause (iv) or otherwise shall cease, and AAA shall immediately return to BBB all Confidential Materials (and all copies thereof), provided however that, notwithstanding any provision of the Ancillary Agreements to the contrary, the undertaking by BBB to indemnify AAA and hold it harmless against Taxes as provided in clause (ii) above shall survive any such terminations.
Capitalized terms used in this Exhibit D and not otherwise defined in this Loan Agreement shall be defined in the same manner as in the applicable agreement among the following agreements between Lender and Borrower of even date herewith: Software Development Agreement; Information Services Agreement; and/or Software Hosting Agreement.
