THIS REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is dated and
effective as of the 23rd day of March, 2006 by and between Ault Glazer Bodnar
Acquisition Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with a principal

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, promises,
representations and warranties set forth herein, and for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by
the parties hereto, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE III
THE LOAN
SECTION 3.01. LOAN ADVANCES.
(a) The Lender shall make loans to the Borrower (each loan hereinafter referred
to an "Advance") from time to time commencing on the date hereof and shall
continue for a period of six (6) months thereafter ending on September 28, 2006
(the "Initial Term") in such amounts as may be requested by the Borrower in
accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that the Outstanding
Principal Balance at any time shall not exceed one hundred fifty thousand
dollars ($150,000.00). Each Advance will be evidenced by a Note and Security
Agreement, in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B,
respectively. At the end of such Initial Term, this Agreement shall terminate
unless extended for one or more additional periods of six (6) months each (each,
a "Renewal Term") by mutual written agreement of the parties.
(b) All requests for Advances shall be made by the Borrower to the Lender in
writing (in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to the Lender) or by
telephone request (which shall be promptly confirmed in writing) which specifies
the amount of the Advance to be made and the date the proceeds of the Advance
are requested to be made available to the Borrower (a "Loan Request"); provided,
that Lender upon receipt of any Loan Request shall have twenty four (24) hours
in which to transfer such funds to Borrower. Advances may not be in any amount
less than twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000.00). Borrower agrees to provide
Lender three (3) days written notice for any Loan Request that is above fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000.00).
(c) A Loan Request received by the Lender on a day that is not a Business Day or
that is received by Lender after 1:00 P.M., Los Angeles, California U.S.A. time,
on a Business Day shall be treated as having been received by the Lender on the
first following Business Day. There may not be more than one Advance made on any
one day; provided, however that the Lender may waive this limitation at its
discretion. The Lender shall not incur liability to the Borrower for treating
any such request as a Loan Request if the Lender believes in good faith that the
Person making the request is an authorized officer of the Borrowing.
(d) Advances shall be made by direct wire transfer of funds from the Lender to
Borrower's designated account pursuant to the wire instructions set forth in
Exhibit C.
(e) Lender may refuse to make any requested Advance if an Event of Default (as
defined below) has occurred and is continuing hereunder either at the time the
request is given or the date the Advance is to be made, or if an event has
occurred or condition exists which, with the giving of notice or passing of time
or both, would constitute an Event of Default hereunder as of such dates.
SECTION 3.02. USE OF PROCEEDS. The Loan shall be applied by the Borrower for
working capital purposes.

ARTICLE IV
INTEREST AND FEES
SECTION 4.01. INTEREST RATE. All sums advanced pursuant to this Agreement shall
bear interest from the date each Advance is made (the "Issue Date") until paid
in full at the Prime Rate (as defined above) per annum (the "Interest Rate").
Interest shall commence accruing on the Issue Date and shall be calculated on
the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed. In no event shall the
interest charged hereunder exceed the maximum permitted under the laws of the
State of California. On and after the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, at the option of the Lender, interest on any of the
Outstanding Principal Balance from time to time shall accrue on a daily basis at
a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus three percent (3%) (the "Default
Rate").
ARTICLE V
PAYMENTS
SECTION 5.01. INTEREST PAYMENTS. All accrued and unpaid interest on each and
every Advance will be payable, without demand of the Lender, on its respective
Maturity Date.
SECTION 5.02. PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. Each Advance shall be due and payable in full,
without demand by Lender on its respective Maturity Date.
SECTION 5.03. MANNER OF PAYMENTS. All payments of principal and interest on the
Loan to be made by the Borrower, unless converted into Common Stock pursuant to
Section 5.06, shall be by direct wire transfer of immediately available funds to
Lender's account as designated in Exhibit C attached hereto. All such payments
shall be denominated in U.S. dollars and shall be made on or before the date
when due, without deduction or counterclaim by the Borrower.
SECTION 5.04. DUE DATES NOT ON BUSINESS DAYS. If payment required hereunder
becomes due on a date that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be
deemed to be the next following Business Day. In the event that payments
required hereunder are not made on a Maturity Date, interest on any Outstanding
Principal Balance shall accrue at the Default Rate.
SECTION 5.05. RIGHT TO PREPAY. The Borrower shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, to prepay, in whole or in part, the Outstanding Principal Balance at
any time, without any penalty.
SECTION 5.06. LENDER'S CONVERSION RIGHT. The Borrower shall provide written
notice to Lender of Borrower's intent to repay or prepay, all or any part of,
each and every Advance, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of
such repayment or prepayment, as applicable ("Notice of Payment"). Upon Notice
of Payment, the Lender shall have a right to convert all or any part of such
Advance including any amounts of accrued but unpaid interest thereon, to shares
of common stock ("Common Stock") of the Borrower ("Conversion Right") at a
price, for each respective Note issued pursuant to an Advance, equal to the
lesser of (i) the closing price of Borrower's common stock on the date of
execution of this Agreement or (ii) the share price of Borrower's common stock
offered in the Borrower's next round of financing in a private placement
offering completed while the principal balance of the respective Note is
outstanding ("Conversion Price"). The Lender may exercise its Conversion Right
by delivering written notice of such exercise to the Borrower within five (5)
Business Days of receipt of Notice of Payment ("Notice of Conversion"), which
such Notice of Conversion shall specify the amount of such Advance as to which
the Lender elects such conversion. In the event that Lender exercises such
Conversion Right, the Borrower shall deliver to Lender, or to any such Lender
designee, certificate(s) evidencing the Common Stock into which such Advance is
converted, which certificate(s) shall be in the name of the Lender, or such
Lender designee, and in the case of a partial conversion, a new note ("Amended
Note") in the amount of the unconverted Advance thereof. In exchange for such
certificate(s) and any such Amended Note, the Lender shall deliver to the
Borrower the original Note together with notice of cancellation of such Note. On
the date of any such conversion, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender in cash,
all accrued but unpaid interest on the portion of such Advance that is not
converted.
3
SECTION 5.07. TRADING MARKET LIMITATIONS. Unless permitted by the applicable
rules and regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common
Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Borrower issue upon
conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the Notes issued pursuant to this
Agreement more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the
Borrower can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal securities market on
which the Common Stock is then traded (the "Maximum Share Amount"), which shall
be 19.99% of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding. In the event that the
sum of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion
of the Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement plus (y) the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock that remain issuable upon conversion of Notes issuable
pursuant to the Agreement, represents at least one hundred percent (100%) of the
Maximum Share Amount (the "Triggering Event"), the Borrower will use its best
efforts to seek and obtain Shareholder Approval (or obtain such other relief as
will allow conversions hereunder in excess of the Maximum Share Amount) as soon
as practicable following the Triggering Event. As used herein, "Shareholder
Approval" means approval by the shareholders of the Borrower to authorize the
issuance of the full number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable
upon full conversion of the then outstanding Notes but for the Maximum Share
Amount.
SECTION 5.08. INDEMNITY. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Lender and its
affiliates, and their respective employees, attorneys and agents (each, an
"Indemnified Person"), harmless from and against any and all suits, actions,
proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including attorneys' fees and disbursements and other costs
of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may
be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as
the result of (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or
warranty made by the Borrower in this Agreement, in a Note or in a Security
Agreement, or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby
or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the
Borrower contained in this Agreement, in a Note or in a Security Agreement, or
any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or
(c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnified
Person by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action
brought on behalf of the Borrower) and arising out of or resulting from the
execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, a Note or a
Security Agreement, or any other certificate, instrument or document
contemplated hereby or thereby (collectively, "Indemnified Liabilities"), except
to the extent that any such Indemnified Liability results solely from such
Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
ARTICLE VI
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
SECTION 6.01. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BORROWER. In order to induce
Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make the advances provided for
herein, Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as follows:
4
a. Borrower is a duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing
corporation under the laws of the State of Utah with the power to own its assets
and to transact business in California, and in such other states where its
business is conducted.
b. Borrower has the authority and power to execute and deliver any
document required hereunder and to perform any condition or obligation imposed
under the terms of such documents.
c. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each
document incident hereto will not violate any provision of any applicable law,
regulation, order, judgment, decree, article of incorporation, by-law,
indenture, contract, agreement, or other undertaking to which Borrower is a
party, or which purports to be binding on Borrower or its assets and will not
result in the creation or imposition of a lien on any of its assets.
d. There is no action, suit, investigation, or proceeding pending or, to
the knowledge of Borrower, threatened, against or affecting Borrower or any of
its assets which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse affect
on the financial condition of Borrower or the operation of its business.
SECTION 6.02. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF LENDER. Lender represents and
warrants to Borrower as follows:
a. The Lender represents that any shares of Common Stock issued to Lender
pursuant to this Agreement and any Notes issued pursuant hereto are being
purchased for Lender's own account, for investment purposes only and not for
distribution or resale to others in contravention of the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). The
Lender agrees that it will not sell or otherwise transfer such shares of Common
Stock unless the transaction is registered under the 1933 Act or unless an
exemption from such registration is available.
b. The Lender represents and warrants that it is an "accredited investor"
as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933
Act, and that it is able to bear the economic risk of any investment in shares
of Common Stock issued to Lender pursuant to this Agreement and any Notes issued
pursuant hereto.
c. The Lender recognizes that the purchase of shares of Common Stock
involves a high degree of risk in that: (a) an investment in the Borrower is
highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire
investment should consider investing in the Borrower and its Common Stock; (b)
transferability of the Common Stock is limited; and (c) the Borrower may require
substantial additional funds to operate its business and subsequent equity
financings will dilute the ownership and voting interests of the Lender. The
Lender acknowledges that it has prior investment experience with companies
similar to Borrower and that it recognizes the highly speculative nature of its
investment in the Common Stock.
d. The Lender represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly
and validly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes the legal,
binding and enforceable obligation of the Lender.

misleading.

any permitted grace period or opportunity to cure, Lender may suspend or
terminate any obligation it may have hereunder to make additional Advances. To
the extent permitted by law, Borrower waives any rights to presentment, demand,
protest, or notice of any kind in connection with this Agreement. No failure or
delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power, or privilege
hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power, or privilege. The rights and remedies provided herein

EXHIBIT A
SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE
$________ Marina Del Rey, California
March __, 2006
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Digicorp (the "Maker"), a Utah corporation with
an office located at 4143 Glencoe Avenue, Marina Del Rey, CA 92092, hereby
promises to pay to the order of Ault Glazer Bodnar Acquisition Fund LLC (the
"Payee"), a Delaware limited liability company, the principal sum of _________
dollars ($______) plus any accrued interest thereon in lawful money of the
United States within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date first specified
above (the "Maturity Date").
The following is a statement of the other terms and conditions to
which this secured promissory note (the "Note") is subject to:
Maker promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance
hereof at the Prime Rate per annum, such interest to be paid on the Maturity
Date. "Prime Rate" means the rate of interest published by the Wall Street
Journal (the "Journal"), as its "Prime Rate" or "Base Rate" for commercial
loans. The interest rate hereunder shall be adjusted on the effective date of
any change in the Prime Rate to reflect the Prime Rate then in effect. In the
event that the Journal ceases to publish a "Prime Rate" or "Base Rate" for
commercial loans, the Payee may specify an alternate source for the Prime Rate
by delivering written notice thereof to Maker.
Interest shall commence accruing on the date first written above and
shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed. In
no event shall the interest charged hereunder exceed the maximum permitted under
the laws of the State of California.
The Maker shall provide written notice to Payee of Maker's intent to
repay or prepay, all or any part of this Note at least five (5) business days
prior to the date of such repayment or prepayment, as applicable ("Notice of
Payment"). Upon Notice of Payment, the Payee shall have a right to convert all
or any part of the principal balance of this Note including any amounts of
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, to shares of common stock ("Common Stock")
of the Maker ("Conversion Right") at a price equal to the lesser of (i) the
closing price of Maker's common stock on the date of execution of that certain
Revolving Line of Credit Agreement dated March 23, 2006 by and between the Payee
and the Maker (the "Agreement") or (ii) the share price of Maker's common stock
offered in Maker's next round of financing in a private placement offering
completed while the principal balance of this Note is outstanding ("Conversion
Price"). The Payee may exercise its Conversion Right by delivering written
notice of such exercise to Maker within five (5) Business Days (defined in the
Agreement) of receipt of Notice of Payment ("Notice of Conversion"), which such
Notice of Conversion shall specify the amount of this Note as to which Payee
elects such conversion. In the event that Payee exercises such Conversion Right,
the Maker shall deliver to Payee, or to any such Payee designee, certificate(s)
evidencing the Common Stock into which this Note is converted, which
certificate(s) shall be in the name of the Payee, or such Payee designee, and in
the case of a partial conversion, a new note ("Amended Note") in the amount of
the unconverted portion of this Note hereof. In exchange for such certificate(s)
and any such Amended Note, the Payee shall deliver to Maker the original Note
together with notice of cancellation of such Note. On the date of any such
conversion, the Maker shall pay to Payee in cash, all accrued but unpaid
interest on the portion of this Note that is not converted.
10
Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the
principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded,
in no event shall the Maker issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to
this Note and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Agreement more than the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Maker can issue pursuant to
any rule of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then
traded (the "Maximum Share Amount"), which shall be 19.99% of the total shares
of Common Stock outstanding. In the event that the sum of (x) the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note and the
other Notes issued pursuant to the Agreement plus (y) the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock that remain issuable upon conversion of Notes issuable
pursuant to the Agreement, represents at least one hundred percent (100%) of the
Maximum Share Amount (the "Triggering Event"), the Maker will use its best
efforts to seek and obtain Shareholder Approval (or obtain such other relief as
will allow conversions hereunder in excess of the Maximum Share Amount) as soon
as practicable following the Triggering Event. As used herein, "Shareholder
Approval" means approval by the shareholders of the Maker to authorize the
issuance of the full number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable
upon full conversion of the then outstanding Notes but for the Maximum Share
Amount.
The Maker shall have the right, at any time, to prepay without
penalty, in whole or in part, the unpaid principal and interest due on this Note
as of the date of such prepayment.
The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and interest
accrued with respect thereto shall be immediately due and payable upon the
occurrence of any of the following (each, an "Event of Default"):
a. The Maker filing for relief under any bankruptcy law;
b. Any representation and/or warranty made by Maker in the
Agreement, or in any certificate, financial statement, or other statement
furnished by Maker to Payee is untrue in any material respect at the time when
made.
c. The material breach of any covenant in Article VII of the
Agreement unless expressly waived, in writing, by the Payee, and which breach is
not cured within thirty (30) days.
d. Default by Maker in the observance or performance of any other
covenant or agreement contained in the Agreement, other than a default
constituting a separate and distinct Event of Default under Article 8 of that
certain Agreement.
e. Filing by Maker of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy seeking

4. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.
4.1 Upon the occurrence of an event of default, in addition to any and all
other remedies at law or in equity available to Secured Party, Debtor hereby
authorizes and empowers Secured Party, at Secured Party's option and without
notice to Debtor, except as specifically provided herein (and, to the extent
necessary, hereby irrevocably appoint Secured Party as Debtor's attorney-in-fact
for such purposes) and subject to applicable laws:
4.1.1 To require Debtor to assemble any and all of the Collateral
and make the same available to Secured Party at the premises wherein the same is
located, or any other place designated by Secured Party; Secured Party may enter
upon any premises where any of the Collateral is located and may take possession
of the same without judicial process and without the need to post any bond or
security as an incident thereto; and
4.1.2 To sell, assign, transfer and deliver the whole or any part of
the Collateral at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit, or for future
delivery, in bulk or item by item, at such prices and upon such terms as are
commercially reasonable, given the nature of the Collateral and the market
therefor, with or without warranties, without the necessity of the Collateral
being present at any such sale or in view of the prospective purchasers thereof,
and without any presentment, demand for performance, protest, notice of protest,
or notice of dishonor except as set forth herein, any other such advertisement,
presentment, demand or notice being expressly waived by Debtors to the extent
permitted by law. At any public sale or sales of the Collateral, Secured Party
or Secured Party's assigns may bid for and purchase all or any part of the
Collateral offered for sale and upon compliance with the terms of such sale, may

Debtor, except to the extent that Debtor has rights in the proceeds of such sale
or sales, and free from any right or redemption, all of which are hereby

purchaser. Notice shall be deemed given when deposited in the United States
mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered, and addressed to Debtor at 4143
Glencoe Avenue, Marina Del Rey, CA 92092. Secured Party shall only be required
to publish an advertisement of a public sale, which advertisement may be
published in a newspaper of general circulation no later than seven (7) days
prior to the date of sale, and an advertisement so published shall be deemed
commercially reasonable if it merely gives the place, time, and date of sale,
merely identifies the Collateral by classification without describing quantity
or quality; provided, however that such advertisement may, at Secured Party's
option, contain additional information. Debtor acknowledges that Secured Party
may accept any offer received, provided it is commercially reasonable, that
Secured Party, at Secured Party's option, need not approach more than one
possible purchaser, and that Secured Party shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, be relieved from all liability or claim for inadequacy of
price if the manner and terms of sale comply with the terms of this Security
Agreement.

Collateral on credit, or for future delivery, such property so sold may be
retained by Secured Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser.
Secured Party shall incur no liability in case of the failure of the purchaser
to take up and pay for the property so sold. In case of any such failure, said
Collateral may be again, and from time to time, sold.
4.3 In the event of any such sale or disposition, the proceeds thereof
shall be applied first to the payment of the expenses of the sale, commissions,
actual attorneys' fees, and all other charges paid or incurred by Secured Party
in taking, holding, selling , advertising, or otherwise preparing such
Collateral for sale or otherwise in connection with maintaining the security of
such Collateral, including any taxes or other charges imposed by law upon the
Collateral and/or the ownership, holding or transfer thereof; secondly, to pay,
satisfy and discharge all indebtedness of Debtor to Secured Party secured hereby
then due and payable pursuant to the Note; thirdly, to the extent that Debtor
may still have monetary obligations to Secured Party not yet due and payable,
Secured Party may retain any surplus as collateral for the payment of such sums
when due; and fourthly, if all of the secured obligations are then discharged
and satisfied, to pay the surplus, if any, to Debtor. Secured Party shall look
only to the assets of the business then operated and/or owned by Debtor to
satisfy any and all claims, defaults or breaches regarding the Note and shall
not in any event, look to any other assets of Debtor to satisfy same.
4.4 Secured Party shall not be liable or responsible for safeguarding the
Collateral, or any portion thereof, or maintaining the condition thereof, or for
any loss or damage thereto and diminution in value of the Collateral either
through loss or non-collection. Secured Party shall not be liable or responsible
for any act or default of any carrier or warehouseman or of any other person,
other than that occasioned by the gross negligence and willful misconduct of
Secured Party.

Security Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered
by Debtor and constitutes a valid and binding agreement, enforceable in

actual attorneys' fees incurred by Secured Party in or by virtue of exercising
any right, power or remedy of Secured Party hereunder or defending, protecting,

damage or expense so incurred shall be repaid upon demand by Secured Party and
until so paid shall be deemed a secured obligation hereunder.
