follows:
1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
--------------------------
Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed
following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The
term "financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms
"including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without
limitation," in this or any Loan Document. This Agreement shall be construed to
impart upon Bank a duty to act reasonably at all times.
2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
-------------------------
2.1 CREDIT EXTENSIONS.
Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit
Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions.
2.1.1 REVOLVING ADVANCES.
(a) Bank will make Advances not exceeding (i) the lesser of (A) the
Committed Revolving Line or (B) the Borrowing Base, minus (ii) the Cash
Management Services Sublimit, minus (iii) the amount of all outstanding Letters
of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters of Credit), minus (iii) the
Foreign Exchange Reserve. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid and
reborrowed during the term of this Agreement.
(b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or
telephone by 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Business Day the Advance is to be
made. Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the
Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit B. Bank will credit Advances to
Borrower's deposit account. Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based on
instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without
instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become
due. Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes
is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss
Bank suffers due to such reliance.
(c) The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity
Date, when all Advances are immediately payable.
2.1.2 LETTERS OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT.
Bank will issue or have issued Letters of Credit for Borrower's account
not exceeding (i) the Committed Revolving Line minus (ii) the outstanding
principal balance of the Advances minus the Cash Management Sublimit; however,
the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but
unreimbursed Letters of Credit) may not exceed $5,000,000. Each outstanding
Letter of Credit after the Revolving Maturity Date will be secured by cash on
terms acceptable to Bank at any time after the Revolving Maturity Date if the
term of this Agreement is not extended by Bank. Borrower agrees to execute any
further documentation in connection with the Letters of Credit as Bank may
reasonably request.
4
2.1.3 FOREIGN EXCHANGE SUBLIMIT.
If there is availability under the Committed Revolving Line and the
Borrowing Base, then Borrower may enter in foreign exchange forward contracts
with the Bank under which Borrower commits to purchase from or sell to Bank a
set amount of foreign currency more than one business day after the contract
date (the "FX Forward Contract"). Bank will subtract 10% of each outstanding FX
Forward Contract (the "Foreign Exchange Reserve") from the foreign exchange
sublimit which is a maximum of $5,000,000 (the "FX Sublimit")]. The total FX
Forward Contracts at any one time may not exceed 10 times the amount of the FX
Sublimit. Bank may terminate the FX Forward Contracts if an Event of Default
occurs.
2.1.4 CASH MANAGEMENT SERVICES SUBLIMIT.
Borrower may use up to $5,000,000 for Bank's Cash Management Services,
which may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit
card, and check cashing services identified in various cash management services
agreements related to such services (the "Cash Management Services"). All
amounts Bank pays for any Cash Management Services will be treated as Advances
under the Committed Revolving Line.
2.2 OVERADVANCES.
If Borrower's Obligations under Section 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3 and 2.1.4
exceed the lesser of either (a) the Committed Revolving Line or (b) the
Borrowing Base, Borrower must immediately pay in cash to Bank the excess.
2.3 INTEREST RATE, PAYMENTS.
(a) Interest Rate. Advances accrue interest on the outstanding

immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate increases or
decreases when the Prime Rate changes. Interest is computed on a 360 day year
for the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Payments. Interest due on the Committed Revolving Line is payable
on the 27th of each month. Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit accounts
including Account Number __________________________ for principal and interest
payments owing or any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will promptly notify
Borrower when it debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a set-off.
Payments received after 12:00 noon Eastern time are considered received at the
opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day
that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and
additional fees or interest accrue.
2.4 FEES.
Borrower will pay:
(a) Facility Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable Facility Fee of
$12,500 for the Committed Revolving Line due on the Closing Date; and

of Section 5 remain true.
4 CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
-----------------------------
4.1 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.
Borrower grants Bank a security interest in the Collateral to secure
all Obligations and performance of each of Borrower's duties under the Loan

reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue
perfection of Bank's security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully
consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.
5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
------------------------------
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

Borrower is duly existing and in good standing in its state of
formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in,

requires that it be qualified, except where the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been
duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's formation documents, nor
constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is
bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it is
bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material
Adverse Change.
6
5.2 LITIGATION.
Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings
pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower's Responsible Officers and legal
counsel, threatened by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which a likely
adverse decision could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change.
5.3 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE.

Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents,
and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or
remedy is not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a

irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to transfer the Collateral into
the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the
power of attorney to sign Borrower's name on any documents necessary to perfect
or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an
Event of Default has occurred. Bank's appointment as Borrower's attorney in
fact, and all of Bank's rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are
irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and
Bank's obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
9.4 BANK'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL.
If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices and Section 9-207 of
the Code, it is not liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any
loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the
Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or
other person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the
Collateral.

Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of
payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release,
compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is
liable.
