The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Application, and such Letters of Credit, under all circumstances whatsoever.

Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any requests by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the Cash Management Services continue.

enter into FX Contracts with Borrower due not later than the Revolving Maturity Date unless cash secured on terms satisfactory to Bank.

The FX Amount shall at all times be equal to or less than $2,500,000 minus any amounts outstanding under the Letter of Credit Sublimit and the Cash Management Sublimit. The “FX Amount” shall equal the amount determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount, in United States Dollars, of FX Contracts between Borrower and Bank remaining outstanding as of any date of determination by (ii) the applicable Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage as of such date. The “Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage” shall be a percentage as determined by Bank, in its sole discretion from time to time. If at any time the Revolving Facility is terminated or otherwise ceases to exist, Borrower shall immediately secure in cash all obligations under the Foreign Exchange Sublimit on terms acceptable to Bank.

2.2 Overadvances. If the sum of aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances plus the aggregate amount of the outstanding Term Advances plus any amounts outstanding under the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Cash Management Sublimit and the Foreign Exchange Sublimit exceeds the lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base at any time, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the amount of such excess.

(i) Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof, at a rate equal to one and one quarter of one percent (1.25%) above the Prime Rate.

(ii) Term Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Term Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof, at a rate equal to (a) beginning on the Closing Date through the Availability End Date, one and one quarter of one percent (1.25%) above the Prime Rate, and (b) beginning on the Availability End Date through the Term Maturity Date, one and three quarters of one percent (1.75%) above the Prime Rate.

Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic Payments against any of Borrower’s deposit accounts or against the Revolving Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue

interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. All payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions or other charges, to the end that Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable hereunder, regardless of source of payment.

(d) Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

2.4 Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

This Loan and Security Modification Agreement is entered into as of February 28, 2007, by and between KANA SOFTWARE, INC. (the “Borrower”) and Bridge Bank, National Association (“Bank”).

1. DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS. Among other indebtedness which may be owing by Borrower to Bank, Borrower is indebted to Bank pursuant to, among other documents, an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 27, 2007, by and between Borrower to Bank, (the “Loan and Security Agreement”). Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan and Security Agreement.

Hereinafter, all indebtedness owing by Borrower to Bank shall be referred to as the “Indebtedness” and the Loan and Security Agreement and any and all other documents executed by Borrower in favor of Bank shall be referred to as the “Existing Documents.’

1. The defined term Permitted Investments is amended to include the following Permitted Investment:

(c) cash and cash equivalents Borrower or its Subsidiaries maintains in foreign depository institutions in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,000,000.

“Revolving Line” means a credit extension of up to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), however, capped at $5,000,000 until Bank is in receipt of the account control agreements as identified in Section 6.6.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall cause Bank of America and Silicon Valley Bank to execute an Account Control Agreement with respect to all of Borrower’s Cash held at such financial institutions, in a form and substance acceptable to Bank, no later than 60 days from the date of this Loan and Security Modification Agreement.

6.7 Adjusted Quick Ratio. Borrower shall maintain, measured monthly, a ratio of the sum of (i) Cash in which Bank has a first priority perfected security interest plus (ii) Permitted investments plus (iii) Accounts, to Current Liabilities plus (to the extent not already included therein) all indebtedness to Bank less Deferred Revenue of at least 1.00 to 1.00.

6.8 Profitability. Beginning with the quarter ending March 2007 and each quarter thereafter, Borrower shall maintain a Profitability of not less than One Dollar ($1.00).

3. CONSISTENT CHANGES. The Existing Documents are each hereby amended wherever necessary to reflect the changes described above.

4. NO DEFENSES OF BORROWER. Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has no defenses against the obligations to pay any amounts under the Indebtedness.

5. CONTINUING VALIDITY. Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the existing Indebtedness, Bank is relying upon Borrower’s representations, warranties, and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Documents. Except as expressly modified pursuant to this Loan and Security Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Bank’s agreement to modifications to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Loan and Security Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Bank to make any future modifications to the Indebtedness. Nothing in this Loan and Security Modification Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of the Indebtedness. It is the intention of Bank and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of Existing Documents, unless the party is expressly released by Bank in writing. No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released by virtue of this Loan and Security Modification Agreement. The terms of this paragraph apply not only to this Loan and Security Modification Agreement, but also to any subsequent Loan and Security modification agreements.

6. COUNTERSIGNATURE. This Loan and Security Modification Agreement shall become effective only when executed by Bank and Borrower.

Borrower ratifies and reaffirms the continuing effectiveness of all agreements entered into in connection with the Agreement.

10. Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
