WHEREAS, the Note matures as of November 1, 1996 (the "Initial Maturity
Date"), and the principal balance owing on the Note as of the Initial Maturity
Date is Two Million Six Hundred Eighty-Six Thousand Six Hundred Seven and 03/100
Dollars ($2,686,607.03), with interest paid to that date; and
WHEREAS, Lender and Borrower have agreed to modify certain terms of the
Loan in connection with the repayment of said principal balance.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto do hereby agree to the following as
of November 1, 1996:
-1-
1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and by this reference
are incorporated herein.

regarding environmental impairment of the Property and (ii) California Code of
Civil Procedure Section 736 regarding Borrower's breach of any environmental
provisions in the Loan Documents, Borrower acknowledges that this Agreement
shall be deemed to constitute a modification to the Loan and Loan Documents
occurring after January 1, 1992.
6. Lender hereby consents to the revision of the terms of the Loan
Documents as specifically set forth above, effective upon the satisfaction and
performance of the following terms and conditions by Borrower. If the following

Satisfaction Date"), Lender shall have the right to terminate its obligations
under this Agreement, in which event, all of Borrower's obligations under the
Loan Documents to Lender shall remain in full force and effect without
modification and Lender shall remain entitled to exercise all remedies provided
under the Loan Documents or, at Lender's sole option, Lender may extend the
Condition Satisfaction Date, which extension shall be in writing and subject to
such amended terms and conditions as Lender shall deem advisable, in Lender's
sole and absolute discretion:
-2-
(a) Execution and delivery by Borrower of this Agreement, an
ACH Payment Information and Authorization Form in such form as Lender may
request, and such other instruments and agreements as Lender may reasonably
request;
(b) Borrower shall pay to Lender all costs and fees incurred
by Lender relating to this Agreement, including but not limited to Lender's
attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the preparation and negotiation of this
Agreement and title insurance fees;
(c) Receipt by Lender of all monthly payments and other
amounts due and owing under the Note, as modified, through December 1, 1996;
(d) Lender's receipt of a modified CLTA 110.5 Endorsement to
its original policy of title insurance ensuring that the lien evidenced by the
Deed of Trust as modified by this Agreement constitutes a valid mortgage lien on
the real property constituting a portion of the Property, senior in priority to
all other claims, liens, encumbrances, easements, reservations and restrictions
except such exceptions as Lender shall approve in writing. Borrower shall comply
with all of the title company's requirements for the issuance of such
endorsement and shall pay all premiums, costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith;
(e) All representations and warranties of Borrower contained
in this Agreement, the Loan Documents and in any documents or instruments
executed in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, shall be true
and correct in all material respects and shall not omit to state a fact material
to the truth and completeness of any statement made; and
(f) Borrower's delivery of a reaffirmation of guaranty duly
executed by Xxxxxxxx Industries, Inc. and in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
A.
7. This Agreement shall be given in modification (and not in
extinguishment) of the unpaid principal balance of the Note, and all liens and
security interests securing payment of the Note, including but not limited to
those contained in the Deed of Trust, shall be hereby ratified, confirmed,
renewed, extended and brought forward as security for the payment of the Note.
8. The Deed of Trust, Assignment of Leases, Environmental Indemnity,
UCC-1, UCC-2 and all other documents executed in connection with the Loan shall
continue and remain in full force and effect.
-3-
9. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.

EXHIBIT A
REAFFIRMATION OF GUARANTY
The undersigned, as guarantor of that certain loan in the original
principal amount of Two Million Eight Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($2,850,000.00) (the "Loan"), from FARM BUREAU LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, an Iowa
corporation ("Lender") to PARAGON PRECISION PRODUCTS, INC., a California
corporation ("Borrower") is informed that Borrower and Lender are entering into
that certain loan modification agreement of even date herewith ("Modification
Agreement") whereby the Loan shall be modified to, among other things, (i)
extend the maturity date of the note evidencing the Loan to December 1, 2001;
and (ii) provide for a reduction of the interest rate to 7.875%.
As an inducement to Lender to enter into such loan modifications, the
undersigned hereby reaffirms (i) that the undersigned has reviewed the
Modification Agreement; (ii) that the repayment of the Loan, as modified by
Modification Agreement, is guarantied by the undersigned pursuant to that
certain guaranty dated September 6, 1991, executed by the undersigned (the
"Guaranty"); and (iii) that the Guaranty remains in full force and effect with
respect to the Loan as modified and a binding obligation on the undersigned.
In addition to the waivers contained in the Guaranty, Guarantor , by
its execution below, also hereby waives the following with respect to the Loan,
as modified by the Modification Agreement:
(a) The benefits, if Guarantor is entitled to any benefits, of any
single-action legislation or of any or all anti-deficiency statutes or
regulations or judicial interpretations thereof, including, but not limited to,
any protection which may be afforded Guarantor by California Code of Civil
Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, and any amendments or modifications
thereto, including the requirement for a fair value hearing;
(b) Any estoppel defense arising out of Section 580d of the California
Code of Civil Procedure;
(c) Any defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any
right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Guarantor
against Borrower or against any security resulting from the exercise or election
of any remedies by Lender, including the exercise of the power of sale under the
Deed of Trust (as defined in the Modification Agreement), and any defense
arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Borrower or by reason of
the cessation, from any cause, of the liability of Borrower;
-5-
(d) The benefit of or right to assert any statute of limitations
affecting Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, including
but not limited to the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections
580a and 726 that require that any action for a deficiency be brought within
three months after a foreclosure under the Deed of Trust. Any part payment by
Borrower or other circumstances which operate to toll any statute of limitations
as to Borrower shall also operate to toll the statute of limitations as to
Guarantor;
(e) Any rights which Guarantor may have under California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433; and
(f) Without limiting the foregoing, Guarantor further waives all rights
and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that
election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to the
security for the guaranteed obligations, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d
of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
Guarantor understands and agrees that by waiving: (i) the anti-deficiency
protections referred to in paragraph (a) above; (ii) the subrogation rights and
defenses referred to in paragraph (e) above; and (iii) the estoppel defense
referred to in paragraph (b) above, which protections, rights and defenses might
otherwise afford Guarantor with protection from a deficiency judgment, Guarantor
can be held liable for a deficiency judgment following a non-judicial
foreclosure sale (including a non-judicial foreclosure sale of a purchase money
obligation) even if the price paid for the Property at the non-judicial
foreclosure sale is less than the fair value of the Property; and Guarantor
further understands and agrees that Guarantor is waiving its defense that the
price paid for the Property at a judicial foreclosure sale may not be equal to
the fair value of the Property; and Guarantor further understands and agrees
that by Guarantor waiving its right to a fair value hearing following the
foreclosure sale that Lender can seek a deficiency against Guarantor up to the
entire amount of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust with interest and
costs of sale less the amount paid for the Property at the non-judicial or
judicial foreclosure sale.
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that the Guarantor may have
because Borrower's debt is secured by real property. This means, among other
things:
(1) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any
real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower.
(2) If Guarantor forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by
Borrower:
(A) The amount of debt may be reduced only by the price for
which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is
worth more than the sale price.
-6-
(B) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by
foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor
may have to collect from Borrower.
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses
Guarantor may have because Borrower's debt is secured by real property. These
rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses
based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure.
The foregoing waivers shall be incorporated in the Guaranty by
reference and made a part hereof.

NOTE SECURED BY DEED OF TRUST
$2,850,000.00 Los Angeles, California
Dated: September 6, 1991
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned PARAGON PRECISION PRODUCTS, INC., a
California corporation (herein designated as the "Maker"), agrees and promises
to pay to the order of FARM BUREAU LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the State of Iowa, (herein designated
as the "COMPANY"), at such place or places as the Company or other holder hereof
may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of Two Million
Eight Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($2,850,000.00) and to pay interest on the
balance thereof from time to time remaining unpaid from Oct. 16, 1991, until
maturity at the rate of ten and one eighth percent (10.125%) per annum, payable
monthly, both principal and interest being payable as follows: Accrued interest
from the date loan proceeds are funded by Company to and including October 31,
1991 shall be due and payable on the first day of November, 1991. Thereafter,
principal and interest in the amount of Twenty-Six Thousand One Hundred Fifty
Dollars ($26,150.00) shall be due and payable on the first day of December,
1991, and on the first day of each and every succeeding month thereafter up to
and including the first day of October, 1996, and a final installment covering
the entire principal balance and interest accrued thereon shall be due and
payable on the first day of November, 1996 (the "Initial Maturity Date").
Each of the said monthly installments shall be applied first, to the
payment of the interest then accrued and due on the unpaid principal balance and
the remainder of each installment shall be applied to the reduction of the
unpaid principal except that if any advance made by the Company or other holder
hereof under the terms of any instrument securing this Note has not been repaid,
any monies received, at the option of Company or other holder hereof, may first
be applied to repay such advances and interest thereon and the balance, if any,
applied on account of any installments then due.
Maker may request a five (5) year extension ("Extended Term") of the
term of this Note by delivering a written notice to such effect to Company no
less than sixty (60) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date. Company may deny
such request if Maker, at the time of such request or at the Initial Maturity
Date, is in default or subject to any delinquency in the performance of the
terms of this Note or the Deed of Trust or other instruments given as security
for this Note or if Maker's record of payment of its monetary obligations
hereunder and under the Deed of Trust is unsatisfactory in Company's sole and
absolute discretion or if the loan does not meet the same physical standards and
underwriting guidelines used in granting the initial loan. Absent any such
grounds for denying Maker's request for a five (5) year extension of this Note,
Company shall provide Maker with written notice of a per annum interest rate
(the "Quote Rate") for the extended term of the Note based on Company's then
current five (5) year U.S. commercial mortgage rate for loans of similar type
and size as the then outstanding principal balance of this Note. Company shall
provide Maker with written notice of the Quote Rate on or before the date which
is the later of thirty (30) days following receipt of Maker's written
-1-
request for such extension or thirty (30) days prior to the Initial Maturity
Date. Following receipt of Company's notification of the Quote Rate and prior to
the Initial Maturity Date, Maker shall deliver written notice to Company
confirming to the Company that Maker either accepts or rejects the Quote Rate.
If Maker rejects the Quote Rate or fails to indicate acceptance or rejection
prior to the Initial Maturity Date, a final installment of all principal and
accrued interest shall be due and payable within sixty (60) days after the
Initial Maturity Date. Interest from the Initial Maturity Date to and including
the date the loan is paid in full shall accrue and be payable at the Quote Rate.
If Maker accepts the Quote Rate, on the Initial Maturity Date, Maker shall pay a
regular monthly installment of principal and interest on the outstanding
principal amount of this Note as of such date. Thereafter, Maker shall pay on
the first day of November, 1996, and on the first day of each and every
succeeding month thereafter up to and including the first day of September,
2001, an amount which, as of the Initial Maturity Date, is necessary to pay the
then outstanding principal amount and all interest thereon at the Quote Rate in
equal monthly installments over a twenty (20)-year period. A final installment
covering the entire outstanding principal balance and interest accrued thereon
at the Quote Rate shall be due and payable on the first day of October, 2001
("Extended Maturity Date").
As conditions to granting the extension of the loan term set forth
above, Maker shall provide Company with the following on or before the Initial
Maturity Date: (i) an executed agreement in recordable form modifying this Note
and the Deed of Trust to incorporate the interest rate, monthly payment and
Extended Maturity Date, (ii) a title endorsement insuring that the lien of the
Deed of Trust remains unchanged after recordation of the modification agreement
and (iii) the reasonable cost of documenting the modification including title
charges and legal fees.
Unless otherwise noted in writing by Company, Maker shall make all
monthly payments by wire transfer of funds to the following account and
containing the following descriptive information:
Chase Manhattan Bank
New York, New York
ABA No. 000000000
For the account of: Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company
Account No. 000-0-000000
All sums due under this Note and the Deed of Trust With Assignment of
Rents and Fixture Filings ("Deed of Trust") securing same are payable at the
place or places as above stated in legal tender of the United States of America
current on the dates such sums or payments are respectively due. Any remittances
by check or draft shall be credited on the date of receipt subject to the
condition that such check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance
with the practice of the collecting bank or banks and any receipt issued
therefor shall be void unless the amount due is actually received by the Company
or other holder hereof. Interest shall be computed on a 360-day year.
-2-
If any installment payment herein provided for, or any part thereof, or
the principal balance at maturity, is not paid when due, each and every such
defaulted installment, or part thereof, shall bear simple interest at the rate
of five percent (5%) per annum in excess of the then current interest rate of
this Note ("Default Rate") from its due date until date of payment.
During the existence of any default or delinquency under the terms of
this Note or under the terms of the Deed of Trust or any other instruments given
as a security for and which secure this Note, the Company or other holder hereof
is hereby expressly authorized to apply all payments made on this Note to the
payment of such part of any delinquency as it may elect.
Time is of the essence hereof and it is expressly agreed that if Maker
shall fail to make any payment under this Note when due, or if an Event of
Default shall occur in the performance of any of the terms, agreements,
covenants or conditions contained in the Deed of Trust,'Absolute Assignment of
Leases and Rents, Security Agreement or any of the loan documents of even date
herewith and made in connection with this Note (the "Loan Documents"), then this
Note shall be in default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of
any such default, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note together with
any interest accrued thereon, shall, at the election of the Company or other
holder hereof, and without notice of such election and without demand or
presentment, become immediately due and payable at the place of payment
aforesaid, anything contained herein or in the Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, and the principal balance together with any interest accrued
thereon, so accelerated and declared due as aforesaid, shall thereafter bear
simple interest at the Default Rate until paid.
If any default or Event of Default shall occur at hereinabove set
forth, the failure of the Company or other holder hereof promptly to exercise
its right to declare the indebtedness remaining unpaid hereunder to be
immediately due and payable or the acceptance of one or more installments from
any person thereafter, shall not constitute a waiver of such right while any
default continues nor a waiver of such right in connection with any future
default.
The Deed of Trust contains provisions which restrict the right to
transfer or further encumber the property described in said Deed of Trust and
which also restrict the rights of Maker to transfer partnership interests in
Maker (if Maker is a partnership) or shares of stock in Maker (if Maker is a
corporation).
Maker hereby waives diligence, demand, presentment for payment, and
notice of whatever kind or nature. Without discharging or in any way affecting
the liability of the undersigned, the undersigned hereby consents to any and all
extensions of this Note as Company may in its sole discretion grant from time to
time, to the release of all or any part of the security for the payment hereof
and to the release of any party liable for repayment of the obligations
hereunder. Maker further waives exhaustion of legal remedies and the right to
plead any and all statutes of limitations as a defense to any demand on this
Note, or to any agreement to pay the same, or to any demands secured by the Deed
of Trust, or any other security for this Note.
-3-
If more than one person or entity is executing this Note then all of the
obligations herein contained shall be considered the joint and several
obligations of each of the undersigned.
This Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of California,
except to the extent that Federal laws may preempt the laws of the State of
California.
In the event that this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney at
law for collection after maturity or upon default or in the event that
proceedings at law or in equity are instituted in connection herewith, or in the
event that this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney at law to enforce any
of the rights or the agreements contained herein or in the Loan Documents, Maker
shall pay all costs of collecting or attempting to collect this Note or
protecting or enforcing such rights, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees, and all such amounts shall be deemed to be secured by the Loan
Documents.
This Note and each of the Loan Documents are subject to the limitation
that in no event shall interest or any other amount paid or agreed to be paid to
Company for the use, forbearance or detention of money to be advanced hereunder
or pursuant to the Loan Documents exceed the highest lawful rate permissible
under applicable usury laws. If fulfillment of any provision hereof or of the
Loan Documents shall be deemed by a court of competent and final jurisdiction to
violate any applicable usury restrictions then ipso facto, the obligation to be
fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and any amount
received in excess of such limit shall be applied to reduce the unpaid principal
balance hereof and not to the payment of interest. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Maker acknowledges that the Loan has been made or arranged for by
Pathfinder Mortgage Corporation, a licensed real estate broker by the State of
California, and is intended to be exempt from the provisions of California usury
law.
If Maker shall fail to make any payment of interest or principal or
payment for impounds for insurance premiums and taxes if required pursuant to
Section 5.03 of the Deed of Trust on the date such is due and payable, a late
charge by way of damages shall be immediately due and payable and the same shall
be deemed to be evidenced by this Note and secured by the Deed of Trust. Maker
recognizes that default by Maker in making the payments herein agreed to be paid
when due will result in Company or other holder hereof incurring additional
expense in servicing the loan, in loss to Company or other holder hereof of the
use of the money due and in frustration to the Company or other holder hereof in
meeting its loan commitments. By placing its initials below this paragraph,
Maker agrees that, if for any reason Maker fails to pay the amounts due under
this Note when due, Company or other holder hereof shall be entitled to damages
for the detriment caused thereby, but that it is extremely difficult and
impractical to ascertain the extent of such damages. Maker therefore agrees that
a sum equal to five cents ($.05) for each one dollar ($1.00) of each payment in
arrears is a reasonable estimate of said damages to Company or other holder
hereof which sum Maker agrees to pay on demand. No failure of Company to insist
upon the strict performance of Maker to pay the late payment charges shall
constitute a waiver by Company of its right to enforce the provisions of this
-4-
paragraph in any instance thereafter occurring nor shall the acceptance of late
payment charges be deemed to extend the time of payment of any interest or
principal payable hereunder.
/s/ LRS /s/ JEH
----------------------
Initials
The loan shall be closed to prepayment for the first three (3) years
after the first day of November, 1991. Thereafter upon giving Company thirty
(30) days prior written notice, Maker may make on any installment payment date
full (but not partial) prepayment of the principal amount due by paying, in
addition to such principal amount and interest accrued thereon and all other
fees, costs, and charges, a prepayment premium ("Premium") of the greater of one
percent (1%) of the then outstanding principal balance or the sum of one-half
percent (.5%) of the outstanding loan balance plus:
(a) the product obtained by multiplying:
(i) the difference obtained by subtracting from the
interest rate on the Note the yield-to-maturity
percentage on a eight 8% U.S. Treasury Xxxx with a
maturity date of October, 1996 (or a similar issue if
this one is not traded) as such yield rate is
reported in "The Wall Street Journal" (or if The Wall
Street Journal is no longer published, some other
daily financial publication of national circulation)
on the fifth business day preceding the prepayment
date; times
(ii) the number of years and fraction thereof remaining
between the prepayment date and the scheduled
maturity date; times
(iii) the unpaid principal balance; divided by
(iv) one minus Company's anticipated tax rate for the year
in which the prepayment is made.
Maker shall, however, have the option of prepayment in full during the
final one hundred twenty (120) days before the Initial Maturity Date without
Premium.
The loan shall be closed to prepayment during the first three (3) years
of the Extended Term. However, during the last two (2) years of the Extended
Term, upon giving the Company thirty (30) days prior written notice, Maker may
make on any installment payment date full (but not partial) prepayment of the
principal amount due by paying, in addition to such principal amount and
interest accrued thereon and all other fees, costs, and charges, a prepayment
premium ("Extended Term Premium") of the greater of one percent (1%) of the then
outstanding principal balance or the sum of one-half percent (.5%) of the
outstanding loan balance plus:
(a) the product obtained by multiplying:
-5-
(i) yield-to-maturity percentage on a U.S. Treasury Xxxx
with a similar maturity date to this Note (or a
similar issue if this one is not traded) as such
yield rate is reported in "The Wall Street Journal"
(or if The Wall Street Journal is no longer
published, some other daily financial publication of
national circulation) on the fifth business day
preceding the prepayment date; times
(ii) the number of years and fraction thereof remaining
between the prepayment date and the scheduled
maturity date; times
(iii) the unpaid principal balance; divided by
(iv) one minus Company's anticipated tax rate for the year
in which the prepayment is made.
Maker shall, however, have the option of prepayment in full during the
final ninety (90) days of the Extended Term without paying the Extended Term
Premium.
By initialing immediately following this paragraph, Maker expressly
agrees that in the event of an acceleration of the maturity of this Note as a
result of any event of default, including without limitation, any acceleration
upon the transfer of any interest in the "Subject Property" (as defined in the
Deed of Trust), a tender by Maker or by anyone on behalf of Maker of payment of
the amount necessary to satisfy the indebtedness evidenced hereby made at any
time prior to or at a foreclosure sale or a sale under the power of sale
contained in the Deed of Trust shall constitute an evasion of the prepayment
terms hereof and shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment hereunder.
Therefore, with any such payment, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium in an
amount equal to the Premium which would be due by applying the formula set forth
in the preceding paragraphs for voluntary prepayments. Maker expressly waives
the provisions of any present or future statute or law which prohibits or may
prohibit the collection of the foregoing prepayment premium in connection with
any such acceleration, including without limitation, California Civil Code
Section 2954.10.
/s/ LRS /s/ JEH
---------------------
Initials
Company shall apply any such prepayment against the applicable
prepayment premium, if any, and then against the unpaid principal amounts due
hereunder.
This Note is given for a loan of Two Million Eight Hundred Fifty

This Note is to be construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of California. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Note shall, for
any reason, be held to be invalid,

illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Note, and this
Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision
had never been contained herein. If any one or more of the provisions contained
in this Note shall for any reason be held to be excessive as to amount, time,
duration, scope, activity, or subject, such provision shall be construed by
limiting and reducing it so as to make such provision unenforceable to the
extent compatible with the then existing applicable law.
