4
(i) Paragraph 17 (A) of the Loan Agreement is amended and

"Renewal Term") which shall expire on October 31, 2001, unless sooner
terminated as provided herein. All loans and all credit facilities
shall be coterminous.
3. Waiver.
------
(a) Based on the financial statements the Borrower has supplied
for the calendar quarters ending March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000, the
Borrower is in default of the covenants of Borrower contained in
Section 14(Q) of the Original Loan Agreement. For so long as there is
no other Event of Default by Borrower, the Lender agrees that the
failure of the Borrower to conform, for the calendar quarters ending
March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000, with the covenants contained in
Section 14(Q) of the Loan Agreement shall not constitute an Event of
Default.
(b) The Lender has become aware of the fact that the Borrower
has entered into a security agreement with Den-a-lez, Inc. related to
contract SP0200-00-D-8501 (the "Contract"). In connection with the
Contract, the Borrower granted to Den-a-lez a security interest in
inventory described in the Contract. The foregoing security has
subsequently been terminated and released on record. Relying on the
foregoing releases, the Lender agrees that the foregoing shall not
constitute an Event of Default.
(c) The Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers by
Lender are limited to the specific periods, matters, and circumstances
set forth in this Section. Nothing in this Section should be construed
as a waiver by Lender of the Borrower's compliance with all other
provisions of the Original Loan Agreement (as amended hereby) nor as a
waiver of the requirement that the Borrower observe all other financial
covenants contained in the Original Loan Agreement and to conform with
Section 14(Q) of the Original Loan Agreement for all other periods
other than those specifically set forth in this Section.
4. Sale of LogE. The Lender will consent to the sale by the
Borrower of certain assets of LogE provided that such sale is effected
pursuant to the terms of a Sale Agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender. Upon (a) the closing of the sale contemplated
by the foregoing Sale Agreement and (b) the payment to Lender of the
greater of (i) the proceeds of the sale or (ii) the unpaid amount of
any Inventory Loans advances made against the assets which are the
subject matter of such sale, then the Lender shall release any lien or
claim that it may have on the assets of LogE which are
5
the subject matter of such sale. Until the closing of the foregoing
sale, the Lender is authorized to reserve $100,000 (in addition to the
other reserves set forth in the Original Loan Agreement) from the
Receivables Loan availability amount. Furthermore in the event
following the closing of such sale and the application of the proceeds
of such sale pursuant to the following sentence, there are insufficient
proceeds to make a $100,000 principal reduction under the Fixed Asset
Loan, Lender is authorized to reserve any shortfall from the
Receivables Loan availability amount (in addition to the other reserves
set forth in the Original Loan Agreement). The proceeds paid to Lender
pursuant to clause (b) above shall be applied in the following order:
(i) first, an amount equal to the unpaid amount of any Inventory Loans
advances made against any assets which are the subject matter of such
sale shall be applied as a principal payment under the Receivable
Loans; (ii) second, $100,000 shall be applied as a principal payment
under the Fixed Asset Loan; and (iii) third, the balance shall be
available to Borrower for working capital.
5. Amendment Fee. In consideration of, among other things,
Lender's consent to this Amendment, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender,
upon Borrower's execution of this Amendment, the amount of Twenty Seven
Thousand One Hundred Eighty Three Dollars ($27,183) (the "Amendment
Fee"). The Amendment Fee has been fully earned by Lender and is
nonrefundable and may be disbursed by Lender from the Total Facility.
6. Reaffirmation and Grant of Security Interest. Without in any
way limiting the provisions of Section 4(A) of the Loan Agreement, and
to secure the prompt payment and performance of the Obligations (other
than those Obligations arising out of the Environmental Certificate),
and notwithstanding which entity constituting Borrower receives a
particular advance of the Total Facility, each entity constituting
Borrower hereby reaffirms the grant to Lender of or grants to Lender,
as the case may be, a security interest in all of such Borrower's now
owned or hereafter acquired or arising Inventory, Equipment,
Receivables, the Life Insurance Policies and the proceeds thereof,
Trademarks, Licenses and Patents, and General Intangibles, including,
without limitation, all of such Borrower's Deposit Accounts, money, any
and all property now or at any time hereafter in Lender's possession
(including claims and credit balances), and all proceeds (including
proceeds of any insurance policies, proceeds of proceeds and claims
against third parties), all products and all books and records related
to any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing, together with all other
property in which Lender may be granted a lien or security interest, is
referred to herein, collectively, as the "Collateral"; provided,
however, that, with respect solely to Collateral of Regam, such
Collateral of Regam shall in all events include only property of Regam
located in the United States of America as of the Third Amendment
Effective Date together with such Collateral of Regam as thereafter may
be located therein from time to time.
7. Conditions Precedent. The amendments described in this
Amendment and the obligations of Lender set forth in this Amendment
will not be effective unless and until each of the following conditions

indebtedness evidenced by the Loan Documents is just and owing and agrees to pay

acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Agreement as amended hereby and the other

Borrower, and that Borrower presently has no existing claims, defenses (personal
or otherwise) or rights of setoff whatsoever with respect to the Obligations of
Borrower under the Loan Agreement as amended hereby or any of the other Loan
Documents. Borrower furthermore agrees that it has no defense, counterclaim,
offset, cross-complaint, claim or demand of any nature whatsoever which can be
asserted as a basis to seek affirmative relief or damages from Lender.
11. Reaffirmation of Warranties. Borrower hereby reaffirms to Lender
each of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Borrower as
set forth in each of the Loan Documents as amended hereby with the same force
and effect as if each were separately stated herein and made as of the date
hereof. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that with respect to the
financing transaction herein contemplated, no Person is entitled to any

Lender harmless against any and all such claims.

provisions of the Loan Agreement as amended hereby, and of each of the other

17. Counterparts; Telecopy Execution. This Amendment may be executed
in any number of separate counterparts, all of which when taken together shall
constitute one and the same instrument, admissible into evidence,
notwithstanding the fact that all parties have not signed the same counterpart.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile shall be
equally as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Amendment. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by
telefacsimile shall also deliver a manually executed counterpart of this
Amendment, but the failure to deliver a manually executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability, and binding affect of this Amendment.
18. Effectiveness of Amendment. This Amendment shall not be effective
until the same is executed and delivered by the parties hereto and all
conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof have been satisfied. The date that all
of the conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof have been satisfied is called
the "Effective Date."
19. No Waiver. Except as specifically set forth herein, this Amendment
in no way acts as a waiver by Lender of any breach, default, Event of Default or
condition which, with the giving of notice or passing of time or both, would
constitute an Event of Default, of Borrower (whether known or unknown to Lender)
or as a release or relinquishment of any of the liens, security interests,
rights or remedies securing payment and performance of the Obligations or the
enforcement thereof. Nothing contained in this Amendment is intended to or shall
be construed as relieving any person or entity, whether a party to this
Amendment or not, of any of such person's or entity's obligations to Lender.

follows:
a. Twelve (12) equal successive monthly installments of principal
of Fifteen Thousand Six Hundred Nine and 36/100 Dollars ($15,609.36)

purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying any margin stock.
This Note is secured by the Collateral described in the Loan Agreement.
The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute a
default by Debtor under this Note (hereinafter an "Event of Default"): (a) if
Debtor fails to pay to Secured Party an installment of principal or interest
hereunder when due; (b) if Debtor fails to pay any of its Obligations (as
defined in the Loan Agreement) to Secured Party when due and payable or declared
due and payable; (c) if Debtor fails or neglects to perform, keep or observe any
term, provision, covenant, warranty or representation contained in this Note or
the Loan Agreement (other than as referred to in (a) or (b) of this paragraph),
which is required to be performed, kept or observed by Debtor or if a default

Secured Party may at its option exercise from time to time any other rights and
remedies available to it under the Uniform Commercial Code or other law of the
State of Arizona.

Agreement shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly,
successively, or together, at the sole discretion of Secured Party. No act of
omission or commission of Secured Party, including specifically any failure to
exercise any right, remedy or recourse, shall be deemed to be a waiver or
release of the same, such waiver or release to be effected only through a
written document executed by Secured Party and then only to the extent
specifically recited therein. A waiver or release with reference to any one
event shall not be construed as continuing, as a bar to, or as a waiver or
release of, any subsequent right, remedy or recourse as to a subsequent event.
Debtor waives presentment, demand and protest, notice of protest,
notice of presentment and all other notices and demands in connection with the
