amended, the "Merger Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Xxxxx will commence a cash
tender offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common
stock of Borrower and will subsequently be merged with and into Borrower, with

WHEREAS, Xxxxxxxx has indicated to Lender a desire for a new funding
source to provide liquidity for Borrower in order to help maintain the business
of Borrower during the period from the date hereof until the Merger is
consummated; and
WHEREAS, Xxxxxx, subject to the terms and conditions of this Promissory
Note, is willing to make a bridge loan to Borrower to secure for Lender the
continuation of the business of Borrower until the Merger is consummated as
contemplated under the Merger Agreement;
NOW, THEREFOR:
Borrower shall be entitled to make borrowings hereunder by giving
Xxxxxx prior written notice of each loan requested hereunder, substantially in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each a "Borrowing Notice"), specifying
the amount, requested date and purpose of each loan and signed by the chief
financial officer or controller of Xxxxxxxx, or such other officer of Borrower
as acceptable to Lender. The aggregate principal amount of all loans hereunder
outstanding at any given time shall not exceed $15,000,000; provided that, (i)
the aggregate principal amount outstanding at any given time prior to June 1,
2003 shall not exceed $6,000,000, and (ii) the aggregate principal amount
outstanding at any given time from and including June 1, 2003 through and
including June 30, 2003, shall not exceed $9,000,000. Within one business day of
the delivery of a Borrowing Notice to the Lender, the Lender unconditionally
shall advance the amount of such requested loan, without any offset or
counterclaim, to Borrower by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
account of Borrower as Borrower shall designate in the corresponding Borrowing
Notice. Any advances hereunder subsequent to the initial advance shall be
limited to $1,000,000 in any given day, unless otherwise approved by Lender,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The initial advance hereunder
shall be used, among other things, to satisfy all outstanding obligations under
and terminate the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated March 31, 2003
between Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries and CapitalSource Finance LLC
(the "Credit Agreement"), in each case in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Credit Agreement.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrower, unconditionally promises to pay in lawful
monies of the United States of America, to the order of Lender, at its office at
0000 Xx. Xxxxxx Avenue, Morristown, NJ 07960-6797 or such other place as the
holder hereof may, from time to time, designate in writing the principal amount
of all loans outstanding under this Promissory Note together with interest as
herein provided.
Principal and interest hereof shall be repaid, without any offset or
counterclaim, in one installment on the Maturity Date (as defined below) when
the unpaid balance of the principal amount of all loans outstanding and any
accrued interest shall be and become immediately due and payable.
Interest on principal hereunder shall be due and payable on the date that
principal is due and owing, and shall accrue at a rate of five (5%) per annum
from the date hereof until paid in full; provided that any amount of principal
(or, to the extent permitted by law, of interest) payable hereunder which is not
paid on the Maturity Date shall bear interest payable on demand, from the day
when said amount becomes due as aforesaid until it is paid in full, at a rate of
eight (8%) per annum.
This Promissory Note shall be terminated and shall become immediately due and
payable without notice or demand of any kind, all of which are expressly waived,
and Lender shall be entitled to exercise forthwith (to the extent and in such
order as Lender may elect, in it sole and absolute discretion) any or all rights
and remedies provided for in this Promissory Note, and all other rights and
remedies that may otherwise be available to Lender by agreement or at law or in
equity if Borrower shall fail to pay any principal or interest owing on this
Promissory Note by (i) the Termination Date, as defined under the Merger
Agreement, or (ii) the date that the Merger Agreement is terminated for any
reason (other than pursuant to Section 8.1(c) (unless the right to terminate
under that Section is not available to Borrower), Section 8.1(g) (unless

close the Merger thereunder and there is a reasonable likelihood that such
Merger will occur) or Section 8.1(h) (unless Borrower is in breach of the Merger
Agreement) thereunder) or (iii) the date that Borrower shall approve a Superior

and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, performance
and enforcement of this Promissory Note are hereby waived. The provisions of
this Promissory Note are binding on the heirs, executors, administrators,
