Agreement dated as of June 13, 2000 (the "Original Intellectual Property
Security Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Lender loan to Borrower an additional
$380,000 (the "Subsequent Advance"), and Lender is willing to do so, subject,
among other things, to Borrower's execution and delivery of this Amendment and
various other documents.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, Lender's willingness
subject to the terms and conditions hereof to make the Subsequent Advance, and
other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Lender hereby agree as follows:
1. Subsequent Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender

immediately available funds pursuant to Borrower's written instructions. The
Subsequent Advance shall be evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note of even date
herewith, executed by Borrower in favor of Lender (the "Subsequent Note").
2. Amendment of Original Loan Agreement. The first "WHEREAS" clause in the
Original Loan Agreement, under the heading "RECITALS", is hereby amended, by
deleting the second parenthetical phrase in the second line thereof and
inserting in its place the parenthetical phrase "(together with any amounts
subsequently advanced by Lender to Borrower, the "Loan")". Section 1.1 of the
Original Loan Agreement is hereby amended, by (a) deleting the parenthetical
phrase in the fifth line thereof and inserting in its place the parenthetical
phrase "(together with any promissory notes subsequently executed by Borrower in
favor of Lender, or any amendments or restatements of any of the foregoing, the
"Note")"; and (b) inserting in the sixth line thereof, immediately after the
words "and any other instruments and documents" the words "as amended from time
to time".

ratifies and reaffirms its obligations under each of the Loan Documents and
agrees that any reference in any of such Loan Documents to the Note, the Loan,
the Obligations, or words of like effect shall include the Note, the Loan and
the Obligations as defined in the Original Loan Agreement, the Original Security
Agreement, and the Original Intellectual Property Security Agreement and the
debt and obligations of Borrower under this Amendment and the Subsequent Note.
4. Representations and Warranties of Borrower. Borrower hereby reaffirms,

Agreement, except (a) as otherwise provided in any schedules to the Original
Loan Agreement, (b) for changes in the financial condition of Borrower resulting
from the operation of its business in the ordinary course, as reflected on the
interim, unaudited financial statements delivered to Lender since the date of

Borrower's counsel regarding the effectiveness and enforceability of this
Amendment and the other documents related hereto, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Lender; (b) Borrower shall have paid to Lender a
processing fee in the amount of $7,600 and shall have reimbursed Lender for its

6. Effect on Original Loan Agreement. Upon the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth above, the original Loan Agreement shall be
amended as provided in this Amendment, and all references in any of the Loan
Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement) shall be deemed to mean the
Original Agreement as amended by this Amendment.
