inspections and tests as Lender may deem appropriate to determine
compliance of the properties with this section of the Agreement. Any
inspections or tests made by Lender shall be at Borrower's expense and for
Lender's purposes only and shall not be construed to create any
responsibility or liability on the part of Lender to Borrower or to any
other person. The representations and warranties contained herein are based

waste and hazardous substances. Borrower hereby (a) releases and waives any
future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event

Borrower has not entered into or granted any Security Agreements, or
permitted the filing or attachment of any Security Interests on or

Collateral.

prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by

any and all such accounts.

of Borrower to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Borrower.

DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Should Borrower or any Grantor default
under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's or any
Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.

FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any Grantor under this
Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
respect at the time made or furnished, or becomes false or misleading at
any time thereafter.

DEFECTIVE COLLATERALIZATION. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any Security
Agreement to create a valid and perfected Security Interest) at any time
and for any reason.

INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver

condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Indebtedness is impaired.

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where
otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments
and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any
other agreement immediately will terminate and, at Lender's option, all
Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any
kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights
and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:

AMENDMENTS. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the
matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or amendment to this
Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the
party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or
amendment.

APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO LENDER AND ACCEPTED BY
LENDER IN THE STATE OF COLORADO. IF THERE IS A LAWSUIT, BORROWER AGREES
UPON LENDER'S REQUEST TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF EL
PASO COUNTY, THE STATE OF COLORADO. LENDER AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVE THE
RIGHT TO ANY JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT
BY EITHER LENDER OR BORROWER AGAINST THE OTHER. (INITIAL HERE __________)
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF COLORADO.

CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Agreement.

CONSENT TO LOAN PARTICIPATION. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's
sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation
interests in the Loans to one or more purchasers, whether related or
unrelated to Lender. Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever,
to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information or
knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating
to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy it may have
with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all
notices of sale of participation interests, as well as all notices of any
repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the
purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the
absolute owners of such interests in the Loans and will have all the rights
granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale
of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of
offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or
against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally
agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower's
obligation under the Loans irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any
holder of any interest in the Loans. Borrower further agrees that the
purchaser of any such participation interests may enforce its interests
irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have
against Lender.

COSTS AND EXPENSES. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's
expenses, including without limitation attorneys' fees, incurred in
connection with the preparation, execution, enforcement, modification and
collection of this Agreement or in connection with the Loans made pursuant
to this Agreement. Lender may pay someone else to help collect the Loans
and to enforce this Agreement, and Borrower will pay that amount. This
includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender's attorneys'
fees and Lender's legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit,
including attorneys' fees for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to
modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any
anticipated post-judgment collection services. Borrower also will pay any
court costs, in addition to all other sums provided by law.

NOTICES. All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be
given in writing, may be sent by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required
by law), and shall be effective when actually delivered or when deposited
with a nationally recognized overnight courier or deposited in the United
States mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom
the notice is to be given at the address shown above. Any party may change
its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is
to change the party's address. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
if there is more than one Borrower, notice to any Borrower will constitute
notice to all Borrowers. For notice purposes, Borrower will keep Lender
informed at all times of Borrower's current address(es).

SEVERABILITY. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or
circumstance, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or
unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any
such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the
limits of enforceability or validity; however, if the offending provision
cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of
this Agreement in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements contained by or on
behalf of Borrower shall bind its successors and assigns and shall inure to
the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns. Borrower shall not,
however, have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement or any
interest therein, without the prior written consent of Lender.

SURVIVAL. All warranties, representations, and covenants made by Borrower
in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by
Borrower to Lender under this Agreement shall be considered to have been
relied upon by Lender and will survive the making of the Loan and delivery
to Lender of the Related Documents, regardless of any investigation made by
Lender or on Lender's behalf.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
Agreement.

WAIVER. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No
delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of
a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of
Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or
any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any
course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any
Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any
obligations of Borrower or of any Grantor as to any future transactions.
Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the
granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute
continuing consent in

PROMISE TO PAY. XXX.XXX, INC. AND ALL COSIGNERS SIGNING THIS NOTE (REFERRED TO
IN THIS NOTE INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY AS "BORROWER") JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY
PROMISE TO PAY TO STATE BANK AND TRUST OF COLORADO SPRINGS ("LENDER"), OR ORDER,
IN LAWFUL MONEY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF TWO
MILLION & 00/100 DOLLARS ($2,000,000.00), TOGETHER WITH INTEREST ON THE UNPAID
PRINCIPAL BALANCE FROM JANUARY 16, 1998, UNTIL PAID IN FULL.

PAYMENT. SUBJECT TO ANY PAYMENT CHANGES RESULTING FROM CHANGES IN THE INDEX,
BORROWER WILL PAY THIS LOAN ON DEMAND, OR IF NO DEMAND IS MADE, IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE FOLLOWING PAYMENT SCHEDULE:

2 CONSECUTIVE MONTHLY INTEREST PAYMENTS, BEGINNING FEBRUARY 15,
1998, WITH INTEREST CALCULATED ON THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCES AT
AN INTEREST RATE OF 0.00 PERCENTAGE POINTS OVER THE INDEX
DESCRIBED BELOW; 10 CONSECUTIVE MONTHLY PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
PAYMENTS IN THE INITIAL AMOUNT OF $41,000.00 EACH, BEGINNING APRIL
15, 1998, WITH INTEREST CALCULATED ON THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL
BALANCES AT AN INTEREST RATE OF 0.00 PERCENTAGE POINTS OVER THE
INDEX DESCRIBED BELOW; AND 1 PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENT IN THE
INITIAL AMOUNT OF $1,726,106.98 ON JANUARY 16, 1999, WITH INTEREST
CALCULATED ON THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCES AT AN INTEREST RATE OF
0.00 PERCENTAGE POINTS OVER THE INDEX DESCRIBED BELOW. THIS
ESTIMATED FINAL PAYMENT IS BASED ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT ALL
PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE EXACTLY AS SCHEDULED AND THAT THE INDEX DOES
NOT CHANGE; THE ACTUAL FINAL PAYMENT WILL BE FOR ALL PRINCIPAL AND
ACCRUED INTEREST NOT YET PAID, TOGETHER WITH ANY OTHER UNPAID
AMOUNTS UNDER THIS NOTE.

The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is,
by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days,
multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number
of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at
Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in
writing. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be
applied first to any unpaid collection costs and any late charges, then to any
unpaid interest, and any remaining amount to principal.

VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from
time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the Prime rate as
published in the Wall Street Journal. When a range of rates has been published,
the lower of the rates will be used (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily
the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable
during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after
notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon
Borrower's request. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on
other rates as well. The interest rate change will not occur more often than
each day. THE INDEX CURRENTLY IS 8.500% PER ANNUM. THE INTEREST RATE OR RATES TO
BE APPLIED TO THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF THIS NOTE WILL BE THE RATE OR
RATES SET FORTH ABOVE IN THE "PAYMENT" SECTION. NOTICE: Under no circumstances
will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by
applicable law. Whenever increases occur in the interest rate, Lender, at its
option, may do one or more of the following: (a) increase Borrower's payments to
ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final maturity date, (b)
increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest, (c) increase the number
of Borrower's payments, and (d) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount
and increase Borrower's final payment.

PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. In any event, even upon full prepayment of
this Note, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a MINIMUM INTEREST
CHARGE OF $40.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any minimum interest
charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed
earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in
writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments
under the payment schedule. Rather, they will reduce the principal balance due
and may result in Borrower making fewer payments.

LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 DAYS OR MORE LATE, Borrower will be charged
5.000% OF THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED PAYMENT OR $50.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

DEFAULT. Borrower will be in default if any of the following happens: (a)
Borrower fails to make any payment when due. (b) Borrower breaks any promise
Borrower has made to Lender, or Borrower fails to comply with or to perform when
due any other term, obligation, covenant, or condition contained in this Note or
any agreement related to this Note, or in any other agreement or loan Borrower
has with Lender. (c) Borrower defaults under any loan, extension of credit,
security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in
favor of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of
Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or perform
Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of the Related Documents. (d) Any
representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on
Borrower's behalf is false or misleading in any material respect either now or
at the time made or furnished. (e) Borrower becomes insolvent, a receiver is
appointed for any part of Borrower's property, Borrower makes an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding is commenced either by Borrower or
against Borrower under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws. (f) Any creditor tries
to take any of Borrower's property on or in which Lender has a lien or security
interest. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts with Lender.
(g) Any guarantor dies or any of the other events described in this default
section occurs with respect to any guarantor of this Note. (h) A material
adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the
prospect of payment or performance of the Indebtedness is impaired. (i) Lender
in good xxxxx xxxxx itself insecure.

LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance on this Note and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, without
notice, and then Borrower will pay that amount. Upon default, including failure
to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may also, if permitted under
applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on this Note to 24.000% per
annum. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help collect this Note if
Borrower does not pay. Borrower also will pay Lender that amount. This includes,
subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys'
fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify
or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. If not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower
also will pay any court costs, in addition to

10
all other sums provided by law. THIS NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO LENDER AND
ACCEPTED BY LENDER IN THE STATE OF COLORADO. IF THERE IS A LAWSUIT, BORROWER
AGREES UPON LENDER'S REQUEST TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF EL
PASO COUNTY, THE STATE OF COLORADO. LENDER AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT
TO ANY JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER
LENDER OR BORROWER AGAINST THE OTHER. (INITIAL HERE _________) THIS NOTE SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
COLORADO.

DISHONORED ITEM FEE. Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $17.00 if Borrower
makes a payment on Borrower's loan and the check or preauthorized charge with
which Borrower pays is later dishonored.

GENERAL PROVISIONS. This Note is payable on demand. The inclusion of specific
default provisions or rights of Lender shall not preclude Lender's right to
declare payment of this Note on its demand. Lender may delay or forgo enforcing
any of its rights or remedies under this Note without losing them. Borrower and
any other person who signs, guarantees or endorses this Note, to the extent
allowed by law, waive presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of
dishonor. Upon any change in the terms of this Note, and unless otherwise
expressly stated in writing, no party who signs this Note, whether as maker,
guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser, shall be released from liability.
All such parties agree that Lender may renew or extend (repeatedly and for any
length of time) this loan, or release any party or guarantor or collateral; or
impair, fail to realize upon or perfect Lender's security interest in the
collateral; and take any other action deemed necessary by Lender without the
consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties also agree that Lender may
modify this loan without the consent of or notice to anyone other than the party
with whom the modification is made. The obligations under this Note are joint
and several.

PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS NOTE, EACH BORROWER READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS NOTE, INCLUDING THE VARIABLE INTEREST RATE PROVISIONS. EACH BORROWER
AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THE NOTE AND ACKNOWLEDGES RECEIPT OF A COMPLETED COPY OF
THE NOTE.

services theretofore performed by Grantor with or for the account debtor;

interests even if junior in right to the security interests granted under
this Agreement. Unless waived by Lender, all proceeds from any disposition
of the Collateral (for whatever reason) shall be held in trust for Lender
and shall not be commingled with any other funds; provided however, this
requirement shall not constitute consent by Lender to any sale or other
disposition. Upon receipt, Grantor shall immediately deliver any such
proceeds to Lender.

TITLE. Grantor represents and warrants to Lender that it holds good and
marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances except for the lien of this Agreement. No financing statement

the right at all reasonable times to examine, inspect, and audit the
Collateral wherever located. Grantor shall immediately notify Lender of all
cases involving the return, rejection, repossession, loss or damage of or
to any Collateral; of any request for credit or adjustment or of any other
dispute arising with respect to the Collateral; and generally of all
happenings and events affecting the Collateral or the value or the amount
of the Collateral.

TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND LIENS. Grantor will pay when due all taxes,
assessments and liens upon the Collateral, its use or operation, upon this
Agreement, upon any promissory note or notes evidencing the Indebtedness,
or upon any of the other Related Documents. Grantor may withhold any such
payment or may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith
conducting an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and
so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized in
Lender's sole opinion. If the Collateral is subjected to a lien which is
not discharged within fifteen (15) days, Grantor shall deposit with Lender
cash, a sufficient corporate surety bond or other security satisfactory to
Lender in an amount adequate to provide for the discharge of the lien plus
any interest, costs, attorneys' fees or other charges that could accrue as
a result of foreclosure or sale of the Collateral. In any contest Grantor
shall defend itself and Lender and shall satisfy any final adverse judgment
before enforcement against the Collateral. Grantor shall name Lender as an
additional obligee under any surety bond furnished in the contest
proceedings.

COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS. Grantor shall comply promptly
with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all governmental
authorities, now or hereafter in effect, applicable to the ownership,
production, disposition, or use of the Collateral. Grantor may contest in
good faith any such law, ordinance or regulation and withhold compliance
during any proceeding, including appropriate appeals, so long as Lender's
interest in the Collateral, in Lender's opinion, is not jeopardized.

HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Grantor represents and warrants that the Collateral
never has been, and never will be so long as this Agreement remains a lien
on the Collateral, used for the generation, manufacture, storage,
transportation, treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any
hazardous waste or substance, as those terms are defined in the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of
1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601, et seq. ("CERCLA"), the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, Pub. L. No. 99-499 ("XXXX"),
the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. Section 1801, et
seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901,
et seq., or other applicable state or Federal laws, rules, or regulations
adopted pursuant to any of the foregoing. The terms "hazardous waste" and
"hazardous substance" shall also include, without limitation, petroleum and
petroleum by-products or any fraction thereof and asbestos. The
representations and warranties contained herein are based on Grantor's due
diligence in investigating the Collateral for hazardous wastes and
substances. Grantor hereby (a) releases and waives any future claims
against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes
liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws, and (b) agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims and losses
resulting from a breach of this provision of this Agreement. This
obligation to indemnify shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness and
the satisfaction of this Agreement.

MAINTENANCE OF CASUALTY INSURANCE. Grantor shall procure and maintain all
risks insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability
coverage together with such other insurance as Lender may require with
respect to the Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages and basis reasonably
acceptable to Lender and issued by a company or companies reasonably
acceptable to Lender. Grantor, upon request of Lender, will deliver to
Lender from time to time the policies or certificates of insurance in form
satisfactory to Lender, including stipulations that coverages will not be
cancelled or diminished without at least ten (10) days' prior written
notice to Lender and not including any disclaimer of the insurer's
liability for failure to give such a notice. Each insurance policy also
shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of Lender
will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor
or any other person. In connection with all policies covering assets in
which Lender holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide
Lender with such loss payable or other endorsements as Lender may require.
In no event shall the insurance be in an amount less than the amount agreed
upon in the Agreement to Provide Insurance. If Grantor at any time fails to
obtain or maintain any insurance as required under this Agreement, Lender
may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain such insurance as Lender deems
appropriate, including if it so chooses "single interest insurance," which
will cover only Lender's interest in the Collateral.

APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of
any loss or damage to the Collateral. Lender may make proof of loss if
Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. All
proceeds of any insurance on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds
thereon, shall be held by Lender as part of the Collateral. If Lender
consents to repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Collateral,
Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of expenditure, pay or reimburse
Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration.
If Lender does not consent to repair or replacement of the Collateral,
Lender shall retain a sufficient amount of the proceeds to pay all of the
Indebtedness, and shall pay the balance to Grantor. Any proceeds which have
not been disbursed within six (6) months after their receipt and which
Grantor has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Collateral
shall be used to prepay the Indebtedness.

INSURANCE RESERVES. Lender may require Grantor to maintain with Lender
reserves for payment of insurance premiums, which reserves shall be created
by monthly payments from Grantor of a sum estimated by Lender to be
sufficient to produce, at least fifteen (15) days before the premium due
date, amounts at least equal to the insurance premiums to be paid. If
fifteen (15) days before payment is due, the reserve funds are
insufficient, Grantor shall upon demand pay any deficiency to Lender. The
reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general deposit and shall
constitute a non-interest-bearing account which Lender may satisfy by
payment of the insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor as they
become due. Lender does not hold the reserve funds in trust for Grantor,
and Lender is not the agent of Grantor for payment of the insurance
premiums required to be paid by Grantor. The responsibility for the payment
of premiums shall remain Grantor's sole responsibility.

INSURANCE REPORTS. Grantor, upon request of Lender, shall furnish to Lender
reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as
Lender may reasonably request including the following: (a) the name of the
insurer; (b) the risks insured; (c) the amount of the policy; (d) the
property insured; (e) the then current value on the basis of which
insurance has been obtained and the manner of determining that value; and
(f) the expiration date of the policy. In addition, Grantor shall upon
request by Lender (however not more often than annually) have an
independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine, as applicable, the
cash value or replacement cost of the Collateral.

GRANTOR'S RIGHT TO POSSESSION AND TO COLLECT ACCOUNTS. Until default and except
as otherwise provided below with respect to accounts, Grantor may have
possession of the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the
Collateral and may use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this
Agreement or the Related Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession
and beneficial use shall not apply to any Collateral where possession of the
Collateral by Lender is required by law to perfect Lender's security interest in
such Collateral. Until otherwise notified by Lender, Grantor may collect any of
the Collateral consisting of accounts. At any time and even though no Event of
Default exists, Lender may exercise its rights to collect the accounts and to
notify account debtors to make payments directly to Lender for application to
the Indebtedness.

13
01-16-1998 COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT Page 3
Loan No 1014868 (Continued)

If Lender at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after
an Event of Default, Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of the Collateral if Lender takes such action for
that purpose as Grantor shall request or as Lender, in Lender's sole discretion,
shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request
by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise reasonable
care. Lender shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any
rights in the Collateral against prior parties, nor to protect, preserve or
maintain any security interest given to secure the Indebtedness.

EXPENDITURES BY LENDER. If not discharged or paid when due, Lender may (but
shall not be obligated to) discharge or pay any amounts required to be
discharged or paid by Grantor under this Agreement, including without limitation
all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances, and other claims, at any
time levied or placed on the Collateral. Lender also may (but shall not be
obligated to) pay all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the
Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes
will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date
incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such
expenses shall become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will
(a) be payable on demand, (b) be added to the balance of the Note and be
apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due
during either (i) the term of any applicable insurance policy or (ii) the
remaining term of the Note, or (c) be treated as a balloon payment which will be
due and payable at the Note's maturity. This Agreement also will secure payment
of these amounts. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and
remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement:

DEFAULT ON INDEBTEDNESS. Failure of Grantor to make any payment when due on
the Indebtedness.

OTHER DEFAULTS. Failure of Grantor to comply with or to perform any other

Grantor.

DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Should Borrower or any Grantor default
under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's or any
Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.

FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Grantor under this Agreement, the
Note or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
respect, either now or at the time made or furnished.

ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
documents to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
time and for any reason.

INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Grantor's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Grantor, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Grantor's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Grantor.

CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Grantor or by any
governmental agency against the Collateral or any other collateral securing
the Indebtedness. This includes a garnishment of any of Grantor's deposit
accounts with Lender.

EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or such Guarantor dies or
becomes incompetent.

ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Grantor's financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Indebtedness is impaired.

INSECURITY. Lender, in good faith, deems itself insecure.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs under this
Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured
party under the Colorado Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without
limitation, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following rights and
remedies:

ACCELERATE INDEBTEDNESS. Lender may declare the entire Indebtedness,
including any prepayment penalty which Grantor would be required to pay,
immediately due and payable, without notice.

ASSEMBLE COLLATERAL. Lender may require Grantor to deliver to Lender all or
any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and
other documents relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to
assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be
designated by Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter upon the
property of Grantor to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the
Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time
of repossession, Grantor agrees Lender may take such other goods, provided
that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Grantor after
repossession.

SELL THE COLLATERAL. Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer,
or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in its own name
or that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or
private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value
or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give
Grantor reasonable notice of the time after which any private sale or any
other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made. The
requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at
least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. All
expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral, including without
limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale
and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the Indebtedness secured
by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the Note
rate from date of expenditure until repaid.

have the following rights and remedies regarding the appointment of a

(b) the receiver may be an employee of Lender and may serve without bond,
and (c) all fees of the receiver and his or her attorney shall become part
of the Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on
demand, with interest at the Note rate from date of expenditure until
repaid. The receiver may be appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction
upon ex parte application and without notice, notice being expressly
waived.

COLLECT REVENUES, APPLY ACCOUNTS. Lender, either itself or through a
receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the
Collateral. Lender may at any time in its discretion transfer any
Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee and receive the
payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as
security for the Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the Indebtedness in
such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral
consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments,
chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand,
collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, xxx for, foreclose, or
realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not
Indebtedness or Collateral is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on
behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail and payments are to
be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of
title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of
any Collateral. To facilitate collection, Lender may notify account debtors
and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.

OBTAIN DEFICIENCY. If Lender chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral,
Lender may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining
on the Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received
from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement. Grantor shall
be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction described in this
subsection is a sale of accounts or chattel paper.

OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of
a secured creditor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as
may be amended from time to time. In addition, Lender shall have and may
exercise any or all other rights and remedies it may have available at law,
in equity, or otherwise.

CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. All of Lender's rights and remedies, whether evidenced
by this Agreement or the Related Documents or by any other writing, shall
be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by
Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit

14
01-16-1998 COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT Page 4
Loan No 1014868 (Continued)

of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action
to perform an obligation of Grantor under this Agreement, after Grantor's
failure to perform, shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default
and to exercise its remedies.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:

APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement has been delivered to Lender and accepted by
Lender in the State of Colorado. If there is a lawsuit, Grantor agrees upon
Lender's request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State
of Colorado. Lender and Grantor hereby waive the right to any jury trial in

ATTORNEYS' FEES; EXPENSES. Grantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and Lender's legal
expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.
Lender may pay someone else to help enforce this Agreement, and Grantor
shall pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement. Costs and expenses
include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal expenses whether or not there is
a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy
proceedings (and including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay
or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Grantor also shall pay all court costs and such additional fees
as may be directed by the court.

CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Agreement.

NOTICES. All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be

by law), and shall be effective when actually delivered or when deposited
with a nationally recognized overnight courier or deposited in the United
States mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom
the notice is to be given at the address shown above. Any party may change
its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is

if there is more than one Grantor, notice to any Grantor will constitute
notice to all Grantors. For notice purposes, Grantor will keep Lender
informed at all times of Grantor's current address(es).

POWER OF ATTORNEY. Grantor hereby appoints Lender as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, irrevocably, with full power of substitution to do the
following: (a) to demand, collect, receive, receipt for, xxx and recover

of the Collateral, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

WAIVER. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No
delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of
a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of
Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or
any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any
course of dealing between Lender and Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of
any of Lender's rights or of any of Grantor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this
Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not
constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is
required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the
sole discretion of Lender.

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS. The original maturity date of January 16, 1999,
has been changed to reflect an extended maturity date of January 16, 2000.

PROMISE TO PAY. XXX.XXX, INC. AND ALL COSIGNERS SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT (REFERRED
TO IN THIS AGREEMENT INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY AS "BORROWER") JOINTLY AND
SEVERALLY PROMISE TO PAY TO VECTRA BANK OF COLORADO, N.A. DBA STATE BANK AND
TRUST OF COLORADO SPRINGS ("LENDER"), OR ORDER, IN LAWFUL MONEY OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA, THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF TWO MILLION & 00/100 DOLLARS
($2,000,000.00) OR SO MUCH AS MAY BE OUTSTANDING, TOGETHER WITH INTEREST ON THE
UNPAID OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF EACH ADVANCE. INTEREST SHALL BE
CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF EACH ADVANCE UNTIL REPAYMENT OF EACH ADVANCE.

PAYMENT. BORROWER WILL PAY THIS LOAN ON DEMAND, OR IF NO DEMAND IS MADE, IN ONE
PAYMENT OF ALL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL PLUS ALL ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST ON JANUARY
16, 2000. IN ADDITION, BORROWER WILL PAY REGULAR MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF ACCRUED
UNPAID INTEREST BEGINNING FEBRUARY 16, 1999, AND ALL SUBSEQUENT INTEREST
PAYMENTS ARE DUE ON THE SAME DAY OF EACH MONTH AFTER THAT. The annual interest
rate for this Agreement is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the
ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the
outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the
principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address
shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. Unless
otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first
to any unpaid collection costs and any late charges, then to any unpaid
interest, and any remaining amount to principal.

VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Agreement is subject to change
from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the Prime
rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. When a range of rates has been
published, the lower of the rates will be used (the "Index"). The Index is not
necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes
unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute
Index after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate
upon Borrower's request. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based
on other rates as well. The interest rate change will not occur more often than
each day. THE INDEX CURRENTLY IS 7.750% PER ANNUM. THE INTEREST RATE TO BE
APPLIED TO THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE AT A RATE
EQUAL TO THE INDEX, RESULTING IN AN INITIAL RATE OF 7.750% PER ANNUM. NOTICE:
Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Agreement be more than the
maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. In any event, even upon full prepayment of
this Agreement, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a MINIMUM
INTEREST CHARGE OF $40.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any minimum
interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount
owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender
in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make
payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, they will reduce the principal
balance due.

LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 DAYS OR MORE LATE, Borrower will be charged
5.000% OF THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED PAYMENT OR $50.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

DEFAULT. Borrower will be in default if any of the following happens: (a)
Borrower fails to make any payment when due. (b) Borrower breaks any promise
Borrower has made to Lender, or Borrower fails to comply with or to perform when
due any other term, obligation, covenant, or condition contained in this
Agreement or any agreement related to this Agreement, or in any other agreement
or loan Borrower has with Lender. (c) Borrower defaults under any loan,
extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any
other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially
affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or
perform Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of the Related Documents.
(d) Any representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or
on Borrower's behalf is false or misleading in any material respect either now
or at the time made or furnished. (e) Borrower becomes insolvent, a receiver is
appointed for any part of Borrower's property, Borrower makes an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding is commenced either by Borrower or
against Borrower under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws. (f) Any creditor tries
to take any of Borrower's property on or in which Lender has a lien or security
interest. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts with Lender.
(g) Any guarantor dies or any of the other events described in this default
section occurs with respect to any guarantor of this Agreement. (h) A material
adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the
prospect of payment or performance of the Indebtedness is impaired. (i) Lender
in good xxxxx xxxxx itself insecure.

LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance on this Agreement and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due,
without notice, and then Borrower will pay that amount. Upon default, including
failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may also, if
permitted under applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on this
Agreement to 24.000% per annum. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum
rate permitted by applicable law. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help
collect this Agreement if Borrower does not pay. Borrower also will pay Lender
that amount. This includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender's
attorneys' fees and Lender's legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit,
including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings
(including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction),
appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services. If not
prohibited by applicable law, Borrower also will pay any court costs, in
addition to all other sums provided by law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO
LENDER AND ACCEPTED BY LENDER IN THE STATE OF COLORADO. IF THERE IS A LAWSUIT,
BORROWER AGREES UPON LENDER'S REQUEST TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE
COURTS OF EL PASO COUNTY, THE STATE OF COLORADO. LENDER AND BORROWER HEREBY
WAIVE THE RIGHT TO ANY JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM
BROUGHT BY EITHER LENDER OR BORROWER AGAINST THE OTHER. (INITIAL HERE__________)
SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS ON ARBITRATION, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF COLORADO.

DISHONORED ITEM FEE. Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $17.00 if Borrower
makes a payment on Borrower's loan and the check or preauthorized charge with
which Borrower pays is later dishonored.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. Borrower grants to Lender a contractual security interest in,
and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges, and transfers to Lender all
Borrower's right, title and interest in and to, Borrower's accounts with Lender
(whether checking, savings, or some other account), including without limitation
all accounts held jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open
in the future, excluding however all XXX and Xxxxx accounts, and all trust
accounts for which the grant of a security interest would be prohibited by law.
Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge
or setoff all sums owing on this Agreement against any and all such accounts.

LINE OF CREDIT. This Agreement evidences a revolving line of credit. Advances
under this Agreement, as well as directions for payment from Borrower's
accounts, may be requested orally or in writing by Borrower or by an authorized
person. Lender may, but need not, require that all oral requests be confirmed in
writing. The following party or parties are authorized to request advances under
the line of credit until Lender receives from Borrower at Lender's address shown
above written notice of revocation of their authority: XXXX X. STREET,

ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONTRACT
AND TORT DISPUTES, SHALL BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THE RULES OF THE AMERICAN

includes, without limitation, obtaining an injunction or a temporary restraining
order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or mortgage; obtaining a
writ of attachment or imposition of a receiver; or exercising any rights
relating to personal property, including taking or disposing of such property
with or without judicial process pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial
Code. Any disputes, claims, or controversies concerning the lawfulness or
reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any right, concerning any collateral
securing this Agreement, including any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise
modify any agreement relating to the collateral securing this Agreement, shall
also be arbitrated, provided however that no arbitrator shall have the right or
the power to enjoin or restrain any act of any party. Judgment upon any award
rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude any party from seeking equitable relief
from a court of competent jurisdiction. The statute of limitations, estoppel,
waiver, laches, and similar doctrines which would otherwise by applicable in an
action brought by a party shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and
the commencement of an arbitration proceeding shall be deemed the commencement
of an action for these purposes. The Federal Arbitration Act shall apply to the
construction, interpretation, and enforcement of this arbitration provision.

CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of
the original obligation or obligations, including all agreements evidenced or
securing the obligation(s), remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
Consent by Lender to this Agreement does not waive Lender's right to strict
performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any
future change in terms. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction
of the obligation(s). It is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties
all makers and endorsers of the original obligation(s), including accommodation
parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or
endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this
Agreement. If any person who signed the original obligation does not sign this
Agreement below, then all persons signing below acknowledge that this Agreement
is given conditionally, based on the representation to Lender that the
non-signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or
otherwise will not be released by it. This waiver applies not only to any
initial extension, modification or release, but also to all such subsequent
actions.

THIRTY-DAY ZERO BALANCE PROVISION. For one consecutive thirty-day period during
the term of this renewal, the outstanding principal balance of this revolving
line of credit must remain at $0.00.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. This Agreement is payable on demand. The inclusion of
specific default provisions or rights of Lender shall not preclude Lender's
right to declare payment of this Agreement on its demand. Lender may delay or
forgo enforcing any of its rights or remedies under this Agreement without
losing them. Borrower and any other person who signs, guarantees or endorses
this Agreement, to the extent allowed by law, waive presentment, demand for
payment, protest and notice of dishonor. Upon any change in the terms of this
Agreement, and unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party who signs
this Agreement, whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser,
shall be released from liability. All such parties agree that Lender may renew
or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan, or release any
party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect
Lender's security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed
necessary by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties
also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to
anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made. The obligations
under this Agreement are joint and several.
