WHEREAS, as a material inducement to Secured Party to make (or otherwise
consider making) such loans to Pledgor hereunder and as collateral for the

herein contained and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as

($1,000,000.00), subject to the provisions provided herein (any such funds
advanced or readvanced hereunder being hereinafter referred to collectively as
the "Indebtedness").
(b) Nothing herein shall grant to Pledgor (or any other party) any right to
demand Secured Party to make any loans hereunder, and it is expressly understood

whether or not to advance any funds pursuant to this Agreement and can
unilaterally impose any condition or requirement not stated in this Agreement as
an additional condition for making any such loans.
(c) It is understood and agreed that, as funds are advanced from time to
time to Pledgor by Secured Party, such Indebtedness shall be evidenced by the
Credit Note payable to Secured Party and secured by the "Collateral" (as defined
below).
2. Grant of Security Interests.
(a) Pledgor hereby grants, pledges, assigns and transfers unto Secured
Party a security interest in and to all of Pledgor's right, title and interest
in and to the Stock (including, but not limited to, Pledgor's account numbered
000-000-00 at Xxxxx Xxxxxx ("Xxxxx Xxxxxx"), whose business address is 0000 Xxx
Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx, X.X. 00000, or any subsequent account
wherein the Stock is held for the account of Pledgor), together with all right,
title and interest of Pledgor in and to any proceeds, increases, substitutions,
replacements, additions and accessions thereof and thereto (hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Collateral").
(b) As additional security for the payment of principal, interest and other
sums due under the Credit Note, the Collateral is hereby absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably granted, pledged and assigned to Secured Party.
(c) In furtherance of and not in limitation of the foregoing, any and all
income, proceeds and/or distributions with respect to the Stock and/or the
Collateral shall be immediately paid over to Secured Party upon receipt by
Pledgor and, in connection therewith, Secured Party shall have the right to
instruct the respective payor thereunder to make any and all such payments
directly to Secured Party until the Indebtedness (including, any and all
interest, fees and expenses) is repaid in full.
(d) Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees that, upon the acquisition of any
Stock, Pledgor shall immediately (i) provide the Secured Party with written
notice of such acquisition and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to Secured
Party (A) (1) possessions of the Stock and (2) a duly executed Collateral
Assignment Separate From Certificate (Stock Power) in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit B and made a part hereof, and/or (B) any pledge, escrow or other
security agreement which is satisfactory to Secured Party and, if necessary,
entered into by Xxxxx Xxxxxx [or any other subsequent holder of the Stock for
Pledgor's account (such holder being hereinafter referred to as "Broker")], if
it appears necessary or advisable in the opinion of Secured Party to establish,
maintain and/or continuously perfect a valid and enforceable first priority
security interest in the Stock (it being understood, however, that any such
delivery shall be deemed to have been made and be effective immediately upon
Pledgor's acquisition of the Stock, directly or by and through Broker, which
Stock shall be deemed to be held in constructive trust by Pledgor (or such
Broker, as the case may be) for the benefit of Secured Party until such
possession and/or delivery actually occurs); provided, however, that, no such
pledge of the Stock hereunder shall be deemed to have accrued or be deemed
effective until such Stock has been acquired by Pledgor.

warrants and covenants, which representations, warranties, and covenants shall
survive execution and delivery of this Agreement, as follows:

(b) Enforceability; Priority. Pledgor is the legal and beneficial
owner of the Collateral and has the full, absolute and entire right, power
and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to grant the

valid and enforceable first priority security interest therein and is
subject to no mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, assignment, deposit
arrangement, encumbrance, lien (statutory or other), preference, priority
or other security agreement of any kind or nature whatsoever (including,
without limitation, any conditional sale or other title retention
agreement, any financing or similar statement or notice filed under the UCC
of any jurisdiction, or any other similar recording or notice statute, and
any lease having substantially the same effect as any of the foregoing)
(the "Liens") that have been created by or are arising through Pledgor,
except for the Liens expressly set forth in this Agreement. Secured Party
is entitled to all the rights, priorities, benefits and remedies of a
secured party afforded by the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New

Agreement, Pledgor shall not grant to any individual, partnership, joint
venture, firm, corporation, association, trust, or other enterprise or any

otherwise dispose of the Collateral, without the express written consent of
Secured Party exercised in its sole discretion.

acknowledge, execute and deliver to Secured Party and, if appropriate,

the Collateral, such power of attorney being coupled with an interest so
long as this Agreement shall remain in effect.
(f) Absolute Rights. This Agreement shall be construed as absolute,
continuing and unlimited with respect to the covenants, conditions and
obligations contained herein, without regard to regularity, validity,
enforceability or any change, modification or amendment of any liability or

substantially cure such default within forty-five (45) days thereafter; or
(d) Pledgor shall commence a voluntary case concerning itself under

controverted within ten (10) days, or is not dismissed within sixty (60)
days, after commencement of the case; or a custodian (as defined in the
Bankruptcy Code) is appointed for, or takes charge of, all or substantially

5. Remedies. Pledgor agrees that, if any Event of Default shall have

continuing rights of the holders of pre-existing Liens identified in this
Agreement and (ii) any mandatory requirements of applicable law then in effect,
Secured Party may avail itself of any legal or equitable rights or remedies of a
secured creditor under the UCC and/or any other applicable law now or hereafter
existing.
6. Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
PLEDGOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE
AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH SECURED PARTY'S TAKING POSSESSION OR
SECURED PARTY'S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR
REMEDIES AND ANY SUCH RIGHT WHICH PLEDGOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE
CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OF ANY STATE, and Pledgor
hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law:
(a) all damage occasioned by such taking of possession except any
damages which are the direct result of Secured Party's gross negligence or
misconduct;
(b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or
other requirements with respect to the enforcement of Secured Party's
rights hereunder; and
(c) all rights of redemption, stay, extension or moratorium now or
hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay
the enforcement of this Agreement or absolute sale of the Collateral or any
portion thereof, and Pledgor, for itself and all who may claim under him,
insofar as he now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of
all such laws.
Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon,
any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and
demand, either at law or in equity, of Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be
a perpetual bar both at law and
5
in equity against Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting
to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof,
from, through and under Pledgor.
7. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied
as follows:
(a) to the payment of any and all reasonable expenses and fees
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Secured Party in
obtaining and disposing of Collateral;
(b) next, any surplus then remaining to the payment of the
Indebtedness; and
(c) if no part of the Indebtedness is outstanding and in default, any
surplus then remaining shall be paid to Pledgor, subject however, to the
rights of the holder of any then existing Lien of which Secured Party has
actual notice (without investigation);
it being understood that Pledgor shall remain liable to the extent of any
deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the
aggregate amount of the sums referred to in clauses (a) and (b) of this
Paragraph 7 with respect to Secured Party.
8. Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Secured Party in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder and no course of dealing
between Pledgor and Secured Party shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder
preclude any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The
rights, powers and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which Secured Party would otherwise
have.

instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this
Agreement by foreclosure, sale or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely
to Secured Party, then and in every such case Pledgor and Secured Party shall be
restored to their former positions and the rights hereunder with respect to the
Collateral subject to the security interest created under this Agreement, and
all rights, remedies and powers of Secured Party, shall continue as if no such
proceeding had been instituted.

shall be in addition to all rights and benefits at law or in equity inuring to
Secured Party with respect to the Credit Note, the Indebtedness and any
documents relating thereto.

given when delivered by hand, by facsimile or other similar transition, by a

address for notices by delivery to and receipt of a notice thereof to the other

TO
LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
PROMISSORY NOTE (LINE OF CREDIT)
$1,000,000.00 District of Columbia
Date: August 1, 1996
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, XXXXXXXXXX CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation ("Maker"), hereby promises to pay to the order of TRINITY INVESTMENT
CORP. ("Payee") at 0000 Xxxxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, the
principal sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may
be advanced and/or readvanced hereunder and remain unpaid, together with accrued
interest at the rate hereinafter set forth, on the unpaid principal balance
hereof from time to time outstanding (the "Principal Balance"), at the rates
applicable from time to time before maturity, as set forth in this Promissory
Note (this "Note").
1. Revolving Loan. This Note evidences a revolving loan. Advances and
readvances shall be made hereunder as provided in that certain Loan and Security
Agreement dated as of August 1, 1996 between Maker and Payee (the "Loan and
Security Agreement"). The entire unpaid principal balance, together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, and all other obligations of Maker hereunder, if
not sooner paid, shall be due and payable in full on July 31, 2002 (the
"Maturity Date").
2. Rate of Interest. This Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis
of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365-day year) until the Maturity
Date on the Principal Balance at a rate equal to nine percent (9%) per annum
(the "Interest Rate").
3. Payments. Interest only, commencing as of the date hereof and calculated
at the Interest Rate on the Principal Balance, shall be due and payable annually
on the thirty-first (31st) day of each July during the term of this Note
commencing on the thirty-first (31st) day of July, 1997, except that the last
such payment of interest only shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, and
on each such interest payment date there shall be due and payable all interest
accrued to that date; provided, however, that Payee shall have the absolute
right (but not the obligation), in its sole discretion, to add to the Principal
Balance at any time or from time to time any accrued interest then due and
payable hereunder and treat the same as an advance under this Note, without
notice to or demand upon Maker. The entire Principal Balance hereof, and all
accrued but unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable in full on the
Maturity Date. Payments made on account hereof shall, at Payee's option, be
applied first (1st) to the payment of any late charges accrued and due and other
costs and expenses, if any, then to accrued and unpaid interest, and the
remainder of each payment shall be applied to unpaid principal.
Maker may prepay the Principal Balance or any part thereof, with accrued
interest to the date of such prepayment, at any time, without penalty or
premium. Prepayments shall not postpone or reduce any regular payments of
interest, but shall be credited to installments of principal, if any, in their
order of maturity.
4. Guaranty. Maker hereby unconditionally guarantees the due performance
and prompt payment, whether on the Maturity Date or by acceleration or
otherwise, of the full principal balance of this Note, together with interest
calculated as aforesaid, and all reasonable legal or other costs incurred by
Payee in the enforcement thereof against Maker.
5. Event of Default. It is expressly agreed that time is of the essence for
all purposes of this Note. Either (i) the failure of Maker to make any payment
of the interest or the Principal Balance on this Note as and when due and
payable which failure is not fully cured within ten (10) days after written
notice thereof from Payee; (ii) the making by Maker of a general assignment for
the benefit of creditors; (iii) the appointment of a custodian for Maker; (iv)
the commencement of any proceeding by Maker for relief under any Federal
bankruptcy law or any state insolvency or similar law; (v) the commence- ment of
any proceeding against Maker under any Federal bankruptcy law or any state
insolvency or similar law, which proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60)
days; or (vi) any Event of Default under the Loan and Security Agreement, shall
constitute an event of default hereunder (each, an "Event of Default"). Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, or at any time thereafter during the
continuance of any such Event of Default, Payee may, with or without notice to
Maker, declare this Note to be immediately due and payable, as to the unpaid
Principal Balance, any accrued interest, late charges and any expenses, costs
and/or damages provided for herein, without presentment, demand, protest or
other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.
6. Security Agreements. This Note is made pursuant to the Loan and Security
Agreement and is or may be secured by (i) financing statements by Maker, as
debtor, and Payee, as secured party, and (ii) any other instruments now or
hereafter executed by Maker in favor of Payee which in any manner constitute
additional security for this Note (the foregoing documents, including the Loan
and Security Agreement, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Loan
Documents"). All of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Loan
Documents are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Note to the same
extent as if herein set forth in full.
7. Outstanding Principal Amount. The face amount of this Note is the
principal sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). Each advance and readvance
by Payee hereunder shall be evidenced by this Note, and any repayments of
principal by Maker shall be credited against the Principal Balance due on this
Note, but shall not extinguish this Note in whole or in part. The Principal
Balance due on this Note may increase and decrease as advances, readvances and
payments are made hereunder, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement
(including amendments and supplements thereto) between Maker
-2-
and Payee hereof, and this Note shall evidence all of the indebtedness of Maker
hereunder from time to time existing pursuant to said Loan and Security
Agreement, including readvances of sums already paid. The aggregate principal
advances and readvances under this Note may exceed the face amount hereof, but
the Principal Balance hereunder at any given time shall not exceed the face
amount hereof, it being understood and agreed that Payee hereof does not intend
to make any loans to Maker that are not secured by the Loan and Security
Agreement and that each and every advance and readvance made at present or
hereafter to Maker shall be deemed to be a fully secured advance evidenced by
this Note.
8. Waivers. Maker hereby waives demand, presentment for payment, notice of
dishonor, protest and notice of protest and diligence in collection or bringing
suit and agrees that Payee may accept partial payment without discharging the
obligations evidenced hereby.
9. Attorneys' Fees and Costs; Waiver of Jury Trial. Maker agrees to pay all
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Payee in collecting or
attempting to collect this Note, whether by suit or otherwise. MAKER HEREBY
EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEGAL ACTION
BROUGHT BY PAYEE TO COLLECT THIS NOTE.
10. Applicable Law; Assigns. This Note shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. As used herein, Maker and
Payee shall be deemed to include their respective successors, legal
representatives and assigns, whether by voluntary action of the parties or by
operation of law.
11. Default Rate of Interest. Any late payment of interest or the Principal
Balance (whether on the Maturity Date or by acceleration of this Note as
provided in Section 5) shall bear interest from the due date of such payment
until paid at the Interest Rate plus five percent (5%) (the "Default Rate of
Interest").
12. Highest Lawful Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
the obligations of Maker hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that to
the extent that contracting for or receipt of interest at the Default Rate of
Interest hereunder would be contrary to provisions of any law applicable to
Payee limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted
for, charged or received by Payee, such amount which would exceed the highest
lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the Principal Balance due
hereunder and not to the payment of interest at the Default Rate of Interest.
13. Notices. Any notice to the parties provided for in this Note shall be
given hand delivered, with receipt thereof, or sent by certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, and first-class postage prepaid, or by overnight
courier, at the last known address of the addressee party. Notice shall be
deemed effective upon receipt.
