         Borrower and the Guarantor have requested and, subject to the terms and

conditions of this Agreement, the Bank has agreed to make loans (the "Loans" or

individually a "Loan") available to Borrower on a revolving basis up to a

maximum principal amount of $6,000,000, or such lesser amount as is available

under the borrowing formula described below.

 

         In consideration of the foregoing and the terms and conditions set

forth below, the Bank the Guarantor and Borrower agree as follows:

 

                                   DEFINITIONS

 

         As used herein:

                  The term "Applicable Margin" means, for the periods described

below: (i) negative .50% per annum if the ratio of the Guarantor's Debt to

Tangible Net Worth determined at the end of the applicable calendar quarter

pursuant to Section 5.1 B of this Agreement is less than or equal to 1.25 to

1.00; (ii) negative .25% per annum if the ratio of the Guarantor's Debt to

Tangible Net Worth determined at the end of the applicable calendar quarter

pursuant to Section 5.1 B of this Agreement is more than 1.25 to 1.00, but less

than 1.50 to 1.00; (iii) 0% per annum if the ratio of the Guarantor's Debt to

Tangible Net Worth determined at the end of the applicable calendar quarter

pursuant to Section 5.1 B of this Agreement is more than or equal to 1.50 to

1.00, but less than 1.75 to 1.00; and (iv) .25% per annum if the ratio of the

Guarantor's Debt to Tangible Net Worth determined at the end of the applicable

calendar quarter pursuant to Section 5.1 B of this Agreement is more than or

equal to 1.75 to 1.00. The Applicable Margin shall, in each case, be determined

and adjusted quarterly as of the first day of the second month after the end of

each fiscal quarter of the Guarantor (each, an "Interest Determination Date"),

provided, however, that if the quarterly month end financial statements required

by this Agreement are not delivered within fifteen business days after the date

required under this Agreement, the Applicable Margin shall increase to the

maximum percentage amount set forth above from the date such financial

statements were required to be delivered to the Bank until received by the Bank.

The initial "Applicable Margin" shall be negative .25% and shall be effective

from the date of this Agreement until the next Interest Determination Date.

Thereafter, the Applicable Margin shall be effective from each Interest

Determination Date until the next Interest Determination Date (except for any

increase occurring as a result of late delivery of financial statements). The

Bank shall determine the appropriate Applicable Margin promptly upon receipt of

the quarter end financial information and shall promptly notify the Borrower of

any change to it. Such determinations by the Bank shall be conclusive absent

manifest error.

                                    ARTICLE I

 

                                 REVOLVING LOAN

 

         1.1 Line of Credit: The Bank is willing to provide to Borrower a line

of credit of up to $6,000,000 (the "Line of Credit"). The Bank will make Loans

to Borrower under the Line of Credit from time to time during the period from

the date of this Agreement through the business day immediately prior to the

Maturity Date in aggregate amounts not to exceed the dollar amounts described in

Section 1.2 below, provided that each advance is made in compliance with all of

the terms and conditions described in Section 1.2 below.

 

         1.2 Line of Credit Advances: From time to time prior to the Maturity

Date, the Bank agrees to lend and relend to Borrower such amounts as Borrower

may request under the Line of Credit, provided that the aggregate outstanding

principal amount of all borrowings made by Borrower shall not at any time exceed

an amount (the "Borrowing Base") equal to the lesser of: (a) $6,000,000; or (b)

(x) 80% of Combined Eligible Accounts Receivable plus (y) $800,000. All advances

under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by the Line of Credit Note. The Line

of Credit shall bear interest and be payable in the manner described in the Line

of Credit Note. Although the Line of Credit Note shall be expressed to be

payable in the maximum amount of the Line of Credit, Borrower shall be obligated

thereunder to pay only the unpaid balance of amounts advanced to Borrower

together with interest thereon. The Bank's books and records showing the amount

of such advances shall be prima facie evidence of Borrower's indebtedness to the

Bank therefore. On the 10th day of each month hereafter (and, at the request of

the Bank, prior to each disbursement of loans by the Bank under the Line of

Credit), Borrower shall, at its expense, furnish to the Bank a fully completed

"Collateral Base Report" certified as true and accurate by the Chief Financial

Officer of Borrower and the Guarantor and in a form satisfactory to the Bank,

together with such instruments, title and lien searches, documents, opinions,

appraisals, certificates or certified resolutions as the Bank and its counsel

shall reasonably require to assure the Bank that at the time of each

disbursement Borrower is not in default under this Agreement. Upon the Bank's

receipt of notice from Borrower of Borrower's desire for advances under the Line

of Credit, the Bank shall disburse such loans on the same business day as it

receives such notice, if such notice is received by 3:00 p.m. or at the end of

the next business day if such notice is not received by 3:00 p.m.; provided,

that: (i) no Event of Default has occurred which has not been cured by Borrower

or waived in writing by the Bank; (ii) no event has occurred, which with notice

and/or the passage of time, could become an Event of

 

 

                                       5

<PAGE>

Default and which has not been cured by Borrower or waived in writing by the

Bank; and (iii) the outstanding balance of the Line of Credit Note does not and

will not, after such advance is disbursed, exceed the Borrowing Base. In the

event that the aggregate outstanding advances under the Line of Credit exceed

the Borrowing Base at any time, Borrower shall immediately make principal

reduction payments to the Bank sufficient to reduce the outstanding balance

under the Line of Credit to less than the amount of the Borrowing Base.

Borrower's failure to make such reductions within 24 hours after written,

facsimile, oral or other notice is given by the Bank to Borrower of the need for

such reductions, shall constitute an Event of Default by Borrower under this

Agreement.

 

         1.3 Prepayment of Line of Credit Note. The Line of Credit Note may be

prepaid in whole or in part at the option of Borrower at any time, without

premium or penalty. In case of prepayment of less than all of the outstanding

principal amount of the Line of Credit Note, the prepayment will be applied

first to accrued, but unpaid interest on the Line of Credit Note, and then to

the principal amounts due on the Line of Credit Note.

 

         1.4 Cross-Defaults and Cross-Collateralization. Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in any instrument or other document executed by

Borrower with, or in favor of, the Bank: (i) occurrence of an Event of Default

under this Agreement shall constitute a default under each of the Bank

Obligations; and (ii) all of the Collateral shall secure any and all of the Bank

Obligations.

 

         1.5 Extension of Maturity Date. The Maturity Date may be extended from

time to time, at the sole discretion of the Bank, based upon its review of this

Agreement and the Borrower's financial statements and analysis of such other

information and documents the Bank may deem relevant. The Bank shall have no

obligation or duty to extend the Maturity Date.

 

         1.6 Payments. All payments, including any prepayments, by Borrower on

account of principal, interest or fees, shall be made without set-off or

counterclaim to the Bank at the address specified above in lawful money of the

United States of America and in immediately available funds. If any payment

under this Agreement or any Note becomes due on a day other than a business day,

its maturity shall be extended to the next succeeding business day, and with

respect to payments of principal and interest thereon, shall be payable at the

then applicable rate during such extension.

 

         1.7 At any time Borrower is entitled to an advance under the Line of

Credit, the Bank agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrower

in an amount not in excess of the maximum advance that Borrower would then be

entitled to obtain under the Line of Credit, provided that (a) the aggregate

maximum amount which is drawn and remains unreimbursed under all letters of

credit plus the aggregate maximum available amount which may be drawn under all

letters of credit which are outstanding at any time, including without

limitation all letters of credit issued for the account of Borrower which are

outstanding on the date of the Line of Credit Note, shall not exceed $100,000,

(b) the issuance of any letter of credit with an expiration date beyond the

maturity date of the Line of Credit Note shall be entirely at the discretion of

the Bank, (c) any letter of credit shall be a standby or commercial letter of

credit and the form of the requested letter of credit shall be satisfactory to

the Bank, in the Bank's sole discretion, and (d) Borrower shall have executed an

application and reimbursement agreement

 

 

                                        6

<PAGE>

for any letter of credit in the Bank's standard form. While any letter of credit

is outstanding, the maximum amount of advances that may be outstanding under the

Line of Credit shall be automatically reduced by the maximum amount available to

be drawn under any and all such letters of credit plus the aggregate of the

amounts which have been drawn and remain unreimbursed under all letters of

credit. Borrower shall pay the Bank a fee for each letter of credit that is

issued, such fee to be agreed upon for each letter of credit from time to time

by the Bank and Borrower, provided, however, that if such agreement is not

reached, the Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any letter of credit

hereunder. No credit shall be given for fees paid due to early termination of

any letter of credit. Borrower shall also pay the Bank's standard transaction

fees with respect to any transactions occurring on account of any letter of

credit. Each fee shall be payable when the related letter of credit is issued,

and transaction fees shall be payable upon completion of the transaction as to

which they are charged. All fees may be debited by the Bank to any deposit

account of Borrower carried with the Bank without further authority and, in any

event, shall be paid by Borrower within ten (10) days following billing.

state of Delaware and shall be validly existing and in good standing in
