Under the First Amendment to Loan Agreement, RBC has also agreed to the following loan modifications effective as of November 15, 2004: (i) reduce the minimum required tangible net worth financial covenant from $7,000,000 to $5,000,000; (ii) reduce the total amount available under the credit line from $5,000,000 to $3,500,000; (iii) require the Company to meet or exceed specified levels of adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring charges and impairments of intangible assets, including goodwill) on a rolling three-month basis beginning with the three months ending December 31, 2004; and (iv) require that the net proceeds available to the Company upon the sale of its property at 950 Explorer Boulevard in Huntsville, Alabama be used to reduce the amounts outstanding under the RBC line of credit. RBC will further require that any future breach of a financial covenant will require the Company to include the property at 950 Explorer Boulevard as additional collateral under the loan, if that property has not been sold. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment to Loan Agreement filed as an exhibit hereto.

     Under the First Modification of Commercial Promissory Note, dated November 15, 2004 (the “Note Modification”), among the Company, Larscom and RBC, the principal amount of the original commercial promissory note has been reduced from $5,000,000 to $3,500,000 and Larscom has been added as a borrower. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note Modification filed as an exhibit hereto.
