RECITALS
On or about August 20, 1997, the Borrower and the Lender entered into a Line of
Credit Agreement (the "Line of Credit Agreement"), which evidenced a line of
credit for the Borrower's short term borrowing needs (the "Loan") with a credit
limit as described therein.
On or about August 20, 1997, and pursuant to the Line of Credit Agreement, the
Borrower executed and delivered to the Lender its Line of Credit Promissory Note
(the "Note"), in the maximum principal amount of $300,000.
In connection with the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note, the Guarantor
executed and delivered to the Lender its unconditional guaranty of payment of
the obligations of the Borrower, (the "Guaranty"), which Guaranty is dated
August 20, 1997.
In furtherance of its Guaranty, and as an inducement to the Lender to enter into
the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note, the EDAC executed and delivered to
the Lender its Subordination Agreement dated August 20, 1997 (the "Subordination
Agreement"), by virtue of which the EDAC agreed that any and all obligations
owed to it by the Borrower were fully subordinated and payment thereof was
deferred until the full and final payment in cash of all obligations owed to the
Lender.
The Line of Credit Agreement provides, among other things, that all sums due
under the Note and the Line of Credit Agreement would be due and payable in full
on March 31, 2000.
The Borrower and the Guarantor have requested that the Lender agree to extend
the maturity date for the Borrower's obligations owed under the Line of Credit
Agreement and the Note until June 3, 2000.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Lender, Borrower and Guarantor here by agree, represent and warrant as follows:
1. The Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge that they are unconditionally
indebted to the Lender in accordance with their respective Note and Guaranty in
the amount of not less
3
than $300,000, plus all interest, costs, fees and expenses (the "Indebtedness")
as provided therein. The Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge that they have no
valid defense, set-off or counterclaim to their obligations in respect of the
Indebtedness, and further that they have no other claim whatsoever against the
Lender (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) with respect to the
Indebtedness or for any other matter.
2. The Borrower and Guarantor admit the validity, due execution and
enforceability of the Note, the Line of Credit Agreement and the Guaranty.
3. The Lender agrees to the request of the Borrower and the Guarantor that
the maturity of the Line of Credit Agreement and the Note is and shall be
extended to June 3, 2000. The Line of Credit Agreement and the Note shall remain
the same in all other terms and respects, enforceable in accordance with their
terms.
4. The Guarantor reaffirms its Guaranty in all respects, and specifically
agrees, stipulates and acknowledges that it remains fully liable on the
Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty, notwithstanding this
extension of the maturity date, and EDAC further reaffirms and restates as of
this date its Subordination Agreement.
5. The Borrower and Guarantor represent and warrant to the Lender that they
have the requisite corporate power to enter into this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated herein, and that they have taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
herein.
6. As a further inducement to Lender to enter into this Agreement and to
grant the accommodations contained herein, effective on the date hereof, the
Borrower and Guarantor do hereby release, acquit and forever discharge Lender,
its respective representatives, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers,
directors, agents, employees, servants, attorneys and representatives, as well
as the respective personal representatives, successors and assigns of any and
all of them (collectively, the "Released Lender Parties"), from and against any
and all claims (including without limitation, any so-called "lender liability"
claims or defenses), demands, debts, actions, causes of action, suits,
contracts, agreements, obligations, accounts, defenses, offsets against any of
the Indebtedness, and liabilities of any kind or character whatsoever, known or
unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in contract or in tort at law or in equity,
including without implied limitation, such claims and defenses as fraud,
mistake, failure of consideration and duress, which the Borrower, the Guarantor
and/or anyone claiming by or through any of them ever had, now has, or might
hereafter have against any of the Released Lender Parties for or by reason of
any matter, cause or thing whatsoever occurring from the beginning of time
through and including the date hereof which relates to, in whole or in part
directly or indirectly the Line of Credit Agreement, the Guaranty and the Note
or the administration of any of the Indebtedness or conduct of Lender or of any
of the other Released Lender Parties. In addition, the Borrower and each
Guarantor agrees not to commence, join in, assist, prosecute or participate in
any suit or other proceeding against any of the Released Lender Parties relating
directly or indirectly to any of the foregoing matters or otherwise contrary to
the provisions set forth above.
7. LENDER, BORROWER AND GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
COURT AND IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING
4
ON ANY MATTER ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE FINANCING
TRANSACTIONS OF WHICH THE LOAN AND FORBEARANCE DOCUMENTS ARE A PART AND/OR THE
ENFORCEMENT OF ANY OF LENDER'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THEREUNDER, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, TORT CLAIMS.
8. BORROWER AND GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TRANSACTIONS EVIDENCED BY
THE LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, THE GUARANTY AND THIS AGREEMENT ARE
COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS AND WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO NOTICE AND HEARING
UNDER CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUES, OR AS OTHERWISE ALLOWED
BY THE LAW OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW WITH RESPECT TO ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY

REQUEST THAT LENDER POST A BOND, WITH OR WITHOUT SURETY, TO PROTECT BORROWER
AND/OR GUARANTOR AGAINST DAMAGES THAT MAY BE CAUSED BY ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY

AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN AND FORBEARANCE DOCUMENTS.
9. THE BORROWER AND GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY MAKE THE WAIVERS SET

CONSIDERATION OF THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THOSE WAIVERS WITH THEIR ATTORNEYS. EACH
OF BORROWER AND GUARANTOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT LENDER HAS NOT AGREED WITH OR
REPRESENTED TO BORROWER, GUARANTOR OR ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO THAT THE PROVISIONS
HEREIN WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.
10. Borrower and Guarantor shall from time to time execute and deliver such
additional documents and take such additional actions and shall provide such
additional information as Lender may reasonably require to carry out the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
11. This Agreement and the Line of Credit Agreement, the Note and the
Guaranty and all transactions, assignments and transfers hereunder and
thereunder, and all rights of the parties, shall be governed as to validity,
construction enforcement and in all other respects by the laws of the State of
Connecticut (but not its conflict of laws provisions).
12. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall
constitute one instrument.
13. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Borrower and Guarantor and
upon the respective heirs, successors, assigns and legal representatives of each
such Borrower and Guarantor, and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, Lender's
Affiliates and its successors, endorsees, and assigns. No right, benefit,
interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by the Borrower or Guarantor
without the prior written consent of Lender. Lender may, in its sole discretion
and without notice to or consent of any Borrower or Guarantor, sell, assign,
grant a
5
participation in or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its rights or
interests in the Loan or the Loan Documents to any person or entity, including,
without limitation, any Borrower or Guarantor. In connection therewith, Lender

and their agents, attorneys or other consultants, any information, confidential
or otherwise, possessed by Lender relating to the Loan Documents and the Loan
and Forbearance Documents.
