EXHIBIT C
MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 2 of the Schedule
regarding the rates of interest applicable to the Loans, if at any time the
amount of such interest computed on the basis of the interest rate specified
therein (the "Applicable Interest Rate") would exceed the amount of such
interest computed upon the basis of the maximum rate of interest permitted by
applicable state or federal law in effect from time to time hereafter, after
taking into account, to the extent required by applicable law, any and all fees,
payments, charges and calculations provided for in this Agreement or in any
other agreement between Borrower and GBC (the "Maximum Legal Rate"), the
interest payable under this Agreement shall be computed upon the basis of the
Maximum Legal Rate, but any subsequent reduction in the Prime Rate shall not
reduce such interest thereafter payable hereunder below the amount computed on
the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate until the aggregate amount of such interest
accrued and payable under this Agreement equals the total amount of interest
which would have accrued if such interest had been at all times computed solely
on the basis of the Applicable Interest Rate.
(b) No agreements, conditions, provisions or stipulations contained in
this Agreement or any other instrument, document or agreement between the
Borrower and the GBC or default of the Borrower, or the exercise by the GBC of
the right to accelerate the payment of the maturity of principal and interest or
to exercise any option whatsoever contained in this Agreement or any other
agreement between the Borrower and the GBC, or the arising of any contingency
whatsoever, shall entitle the GBC to collect, in any event, interest exceeding
the Maximum Legal Rate and in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to pay
interest exceeding such Maximum Legal Rate and all agreements, conditions or
stipulations, if any, which may in any event or contingency whatsoever operate
to bind, obligate or compel the Borrower to pay a rate of interest exceeding the
Maximum Legal Rate, shall be without binding force or effect, at law or in
equity, to the extent only of the excess of interest over such Maximum Legal
Rate. In the event any interest is charged in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate
("Excess"), the Borrower acknowledges and stipulates that any such charge shall
be the result of an accidental and BONA FIDE error, and such Excess shall be,
first, applied to reduce the principal then unpaid hereunder; second, applied to
reduce the Obligations; and third, returned to the Borrower, it being the
intention of the parties hereto not to enter at any time into a usurious or
otherwise illegal relationship. The Borrower recognizes that, with fluctuations
in the Applicable Interest Rate and the Maximum Legal Rate, such an
unintentional result could inadvertently occur. By the execution of this
Agreement, the Borrower covenants that (i) the credit or return of any Excess
shall constitute the acceptance by the Borrower of such Excess, and (ii) the
Borrower shall not seek or pursue any other remedy, legal or equitable, against
GBC, based in whole or in part upon the charging or receiving of any interest in
excess of the maximum authorized by applicable law. For the purpose of
determining whether or not any Excess has been contracted for, charged or
received by GBC, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by
the GBC in connection with this Agreement shall be amortized, prorated,
allocated and spread in equal parts during the entire term of this Agreement.
(c) The provisions of this Exhibit C shall be deemed to be incorporated
into every document or communication relating to the Obligations which sets
forth or prescribes any account, right or claim or alleged account, right or
claim of the GBC with respect to the Borrower (or any other obligor in respect
of Obligations), whether or not any provision of this Exhibit C is referred to
therein. All such documents and communications and all figures set forth
therein shall, for the sole purpose of computing the extent of the liabilities
and obligations of the Borrower (or other obligor) asserted by the GBC
thereunder, be automatically recomputed by any Borrower or obligor, and by any
court considering the same, to give effect to the adjustments or credits
required by this Exhibit C.
(d) If the applicable state or federal law is amended in the future to
allow a greater rate of interest to be charged under this Agreement or any other
Loan Documents that is presently allowed by applicable state or federal law,
then the limitation of interest under this Exhibit C shall be increased to the
maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable state or federal law as amended,
which increase

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
shall be effective hereunder on the effective date of such amendment, and all
interest charges owing to the GBC by reason thereof shall be payable upon
demand.
