by XYBERNAUT CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, and XYBERNAUT SOLUTIONS, INC.,
a Virginia corporation, debtors and chapter 11 debtors-in-possession (together,
“Borrowers”), in favor of EAST RIVER CAPITAL LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (“Holder” or “Lender”).

WHEREAS, Lender is the present owner and holder of that certain Secured
Promissory Note, dated March 23, 2006, attached hereto as Exhibit A and
incorporated herein (the “Existing Note"), which Existing Note evidences the
indebtedness of Borrowers to Lender in the current outstanding principal amount
of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,400,000) (the “Existing Debt");

WHEREAS, upon the terms and conditions of this Note, Lender has agreed to make
loans (the “Loans") to Borrowers in the maximum principal amount of Three
Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,200,000), such Loans to be comprised of
(i) the Existing Debt, and (ii) additional loans in the maximum aggregate
principal amount of Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000) (the “Subsequent
Loans"), so that the combined outstanding principal balance of the Subsequent
Loans and the Existing Debt shall not exceed Three Million Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($3,200,000) (the “Commitment Amount"); and

WHEREAS, Borrowers and Lender have agreed in the manner hereinafter set forth to
(i) combine and consolidate the Existing Note and the indebtedness evidenced
thereby with the Subsequent Loans, and (ii) amend, modify and restate in their
entirety the terms and provisions of the Existing Note on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth; and

WHEREAS, Lender and Borrowers intend these Recitals to be a material part of
this Note.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Borrowers and Lender agree as follows:

I. The Existing Debt is combined and consolidated together with the Subsequent
Loans so that together they shall constitute but one indebtedness equal to the
aggregate principal amount of all Loans made by or through Lender to Borrowers
pursuant to this Note, such amount not to exceed the maximum principal amount of
Three Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,200,000) (such amount, or so much
thereof as may be outstanding from time to time under this Note, the “Principal
Amount"). The terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Existing Note
are hereby modified, amended and restated in their entirety so that henceforth
the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Existing Note shall read
and be as set forth in this Note and Borrowers agree to comply with and be
subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Note.

II. The parties hereto certify that this Note evidences the Existing Debt
evidenced by the Existing Note, as increased by the Subsequent Loans, and
evidences no further or other principal indebtedness. Neither this Note nor
anything contained herein shall be construed as a novation of Borrowers’
indebtedness to Lender evidenced by the Existing Note or of the Existing Note,
which shall remain in full force and effect as hereby confirmed, modified,
restated and amended.

III. This Note is an extension and continuation of the Existing Debt evidenced
by the Existing Note, as increased by the Subsequent Loans, and, as to the
Existing Debt, is issued in replacement of and substitution for the Existing
Note.

IV. The Existing Note, as modified and restated in its entirety pursuant to this
Note, and the obligations of Borrowers thereunder, as increased by the
Subsequent Loans, is hereby ratified and confirmed, and shall remain in full
force and effect until the full performance and satisfaction of all obligations
of Borrowers under this Note.

NOW, THEREFORE, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrowers hereby unconditionally and jointly
and severally promise to pay to the order of Lender, in lawful money of the
United States of America and in immediately available funds, the Principal
Amount, together with interest accrued thereon as herein provided and all
premiums, fees and expenses and other amounts payable hereunder (the
“Obligations”). Any reference in any other document executed in connection with
the Existing Note or this Note, including without limitation, that certain
Security Agreement dated as of March 23, 2006, by and between Borrowers and
Holder (as the same may from time to time be amended, modified or supplemented
or restated, the “Security Agreement”), a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit B, shall be deemed to refer to this Note. Additional rights of Holder
are set forth in the Security Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in
the Security Agreement.

  1.   Borrowings. Lender has previously advanced principal under this Note in
the amount of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,400,000). Upon the
terms and conditions set forth herein, Holder agrees to make the Subsequent
Loans in the amount of Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000) upon the
written request of Borrowers. Borrowers shall provide such written request (a
“Loan Request”), together with telephonic notice thereof, to Holder on or before
12:00 noon at least three (3) business days prior to the requested date of such
borrowing stating the amount requested and containing a certification of an
officer of Borrowers stating that no Event of Default (as defined below) has
then occurred and is continuing. Lender shall advance the amount requested in
such notice provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
at the time the notice is given and at the time the advance is made, (b) the
aggregate Principal Amount outstanding under this Note after giving effect to
the requested advance does not exceed Three Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($3,200,000) and (c) all of the conditions precedent for Subsequent Loans set
forth in Section 16 have been satisfied. Amounts repaid hereunder may be
reborrowed on a revolving basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Lender shall have no obligation to make any Subsequent Loans in
excess of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), and the Lender’s
determination as to whether to make Subsequent Loans in excess of such amount
shall be at its sole and absolute discretion. Each request must be in a minimum
amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000).

  2.   Repayment. Except for those Obligations payable on an earlier date, the
Obligations shall be due and payable in full on September 1, 2006 (the “Maturity
Date”).

  3.   Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall not bear
interest except for default interest under section 5 hereof.

  4.   Place of Payment. All amounts payable hereunder shall be payable by wire
transfer to Holder in accordance with wire transfer instructions to be
separately provided to Borrowers in writing, unless another manner of payment
shall be specified in writing by Holder.

  5.   Application of Payments, Default Rate. Payment on this Note shall be
applied first to accrued interest, if any, second, to the Premium (as defined
below), third, to fees and expenses of the Lender, and thereafter to the
outstanding principal balance hereof. Any amount outstanding on the Obligations
hereunder not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise, shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of a
360-day year, actual days elapsed) of fifteen percent (15.0 %) from the date due
until the date of payment.

  6.   Security. The full amount of the Secured Obligations are secured by the
Collateral identified and described as security therefor in the Security
Agreement executed by and delivered by Borrowers. Borrowers shall not, directly
or indirectly, create, permit or suffer to exist, and shall defend the
Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any
Lien on or in the Collateral, or in any portion thereof, except as permitted
pursuant to the Security Agreement.

  7.   Use of Proceeds. Borrowers covenant that the Loans shall be used solely
as follows: repayment of outstanding advances, fees and expenses payable under
the debtor-in-possession financing facility with LC Capital Master Fund, Ltd.
(“LC Fund”) approved by the Court in October, 2005 (the “LC Fund DIP Facility”)
in the amount of Eight Hundred Forty Seven Thousand Two Hundred Fifty One and
81/100 Dollars ($847,251.81), establishment and funding of the Lender Escrow as
provided in Section 8 hereof, working capital needs, general corporate purposes,
the costs and expenses associated with the bankruptcy cases of Borrowers (the
“Cases"), the payment of fees and expenses of Lender payable hereunder, the
funding of the GUC Escrow Account (as defined in that Stipulation and Order
entered on or about April 7, 2006) in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($200,000), and other purposes with the prior written consent of Lender.

  8.   Lender Escrow. The Existing Debt has been used in part to establish an
escrow account (the “Lender Escrow") in the amount of Six Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($600,000) for the benefit of Lender, which amount may be later reduced
to an amount not less than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) upon mutual
written consent of the Lender and the Borrowers. The funds deposited in the
Lender Escrow may be used, at the Lender’s option and in accordance with
instruction by the Lender to the Escrow Agent (as such term is defined in the
Escrow Agreement, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit C (as the same
may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the
“Escrow Agreement")), for payment to the Lender of the Obligations, including,
without limitation, fees and expenses of the Lender, that are due and payable
under this Note and have not been paid by the Borrowers. Payment to the Lender
from the Lender Escrow of unpaid fees, expenses or any of the Obligations that
are due and payable hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of
Default arising from the failure of Borrowers to pay such amounts. The Lender
Escrow shall be governed by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Note
and the Escrow Agreement.

  9.   Premium. Holder shall have earned and shall be paid hereunder an
additional amount (the “Premium”) equal to the greater of (a) One Million Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) and (b) 62.5% (sixty-two and one-half
percent) of each dollar advanced hereunder. The Premium was earned upon advance
of the Initial Loans (as defined below) and shall be paid when principal becomes
due hereunder or when all or any amount of the Loans is repaid.

  10.   Fees and Expenses. Borrowers shall pay Lender a monthly administration
fee of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000), which shall be due and payable on the
first day of each month. In addition, Borrowers shall pay for all costs and
expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Loans, the Loan Documents (as
defined below), the enforcement or preservation of rights and remedies under the
Loan Documents, and the prosecution or defense of any investigation, litigation
or proceeding arising out of, related to, or in connection with the Obligations,
this Note, the other Loan Documents, and any order(s) relating thereto. All
reasonable expenses incurred by Lender, including but not limited to attorneys’
fees and expenses for purposes of preparing, negotiating, drafting, executing,
delivering, closing, administrating or obtaining approval of the Loan Documents,
any amendment, supplement or modification thereto, and any other documents
prepared in connection herewith or therewith, shall be payable by Borrowers
within seven (7) days after receipt of written demand, without the need for an
order of the Court approving such payment.

  11.   Collateral Sales. Borrowers are presently engaged in and will continue
to engage in efforts to sell Collateral (particularly, Collateral consisting of
intellectual property identified on Exhibit 2 to the Security Agreement).
Borrowers will not sell all or any portion of the Collateral without the prior
written consent of Lender. The proceeds of the sale or other disposition of
Collateral (including the sale or other disposition of property, whether
directly or indirectly and including by way of a sale of Borrowers’ business
(including by way of a section 363 sale or as part of a chapter 11 plan(s)),
that had been included in the Collateral (even if the Loans have been repaid)
(subject only to the final sentence of this Section 11), net only of the
expenses directly attributable (excluding any commission, incentive or similar
fee payable to broker or investment bankers to such sale or disposition)
(“Collateral Proceeds”), shall upon Borrowers’ receipt be paid as follows:
(a) the first Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) of Collateral Proceeds shall be
paid one hundred percent (100%) to Holder to reduce the Obligations until
payment in full of the Obligations, (b) after the aggregate Collateral Proceeds
exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and until payment in full of the
Obligations, ninety-seven and one-half percent (97.5%) to Holder and two and
one-half percent (2.5%) to LC Fund for a period of one year following
confirmation of a plan of reorganization for the Borrowers and thereafter one
hundred percent (100%) to Holder to reduce the Obligations, and (c) after the
aggregate Collateral Proceeds exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) and until
payment in full of the Obligations, ninety-six and one-half percent (96.5%) to
Holder and two and one-half percent (3.5%) to LC Fund for a period of one year
following confirmation of a plan of reorganization for the Borrowers and
thereafter one hundred percent (100%) to Holder to reduce the Obligations. For
the avoidance of doubt, while no Event of Default exists, Collateral consisting
of accounts receivable and inventory created in the ordinary course of business
may be used by Borrowers in the ordinary course of their business.

  12.   Existing Ownership. Borrowers shall not without the prior express
written consent of Lender (i) issue any capital stock, (ii) cancel any
authorized stock, or (iii) alter existing shareholder structure, or take any
other action, so as to further or cause an ownership change within the meaning
of section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Upon acquiring information or
knowledge that any person or entity may take action to become a “5% shareholder”
within the meaning of section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, Borrowers shall
immediately advise Lender of such circumstance, shall consult in good faith with
Lender as to any commercially reasonable actions that Borrowers may take to
prevent such person or entity becoming a “5% shareholder,” and shall take any
and all such commercially reasonable actions mutually agreed upon with Lender.

  13.   Sales Process/Plan Milestones. Borrowers covenant to use their best
efforts to cause the events set forth on Exhibit D to occur by the dates
indicated thereon (the “Milestones”).

  14.   Board of Director Meetings. Borrowers shall provide Holder with
reasonable prior notice of all meetings (including telephonic meetings) of the
boards of directors of Borrowers, and permit an authorized representative of
Holder to attend and observe all such meetings; provided, however, the Holder’s
representative shall not be permitted to attend meetings of executive committees
of the boards of directors held to discuss matters that the boards of directors
have determined in good faith are required to be kept confidential for the
protection of the Borrowers’ operations.

  15.   Access to Books and Records. Borrowers shall permit any authorized
representative of Lender to inspect any of their properties and books and
records, including financial and accounting records, and to make copies and take
extracts therefrom, all upon reasonable notice at such reasonable times and as
often as may be reasonably requested; provided that Lender shall not
unreasonably interfere with the Borrowers’ operations.

successive Loan hereunder is subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions precedent:

  (a)   Interim and Final Orders. The Court shall have issued the Financing

modification of the automatic stay of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code to the
extent necessary to permit Holder to exercise all rights and remedies under this

  18.   Representations and Warranties of Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby
represents and warrants to the Holder that:

  (a)   Organization and Good Standing. Borrower is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of
its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry
on its business as now conducted.

  (b)   Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of
this Note, the Security Agreement and the Escrow Agreement are within Borrower’s
corporate power; have been duly authorized by all necessary or proper corporate
action and, on the date of initial funding of the Loans hereunder and on each
subsequent funding date, will be authorized by a Financing Order which remains
in full force and effect and has not been amended, stayed or vacated; will not
violate any applicable law; does not require the consent or approval of any
governmental authority or any other person (other than entry of the applicable
Financing Order) and except such consents as have been obtained.

  (c)   Valid Obligation. This Note, Security Agreement and the Escrow Agreement
constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Borrower, enforceable
against Borrower in accordance with their terms.

  (d)   Non-contravention of Other Instruments. Borrower is not in violation or
default (i) of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or
(ii) in any material respect of any post-petition instrument, judgment, order,
writ, decree or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound which
violation or default would have a material adverse effect on Borrower or its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Note, the Security Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not result in any such
violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of
time and giving of notice, either a default under any such post-petition
provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract (including but
not limited to any credit agreements, guaranties or debt related agreements to
which Borrower or any affiliate of Borrower may be a party) or an event that
results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of
Borrower or its subsidiaries or the suspension, revocation, impairment,
forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization, or
approval applicable to Borrower, its business or operations or any of its assets
or properties.

  (e)   Title to Collateral. Except as expressly provided otherwise in the
Security Agreement, all assets and property of Borrower are included in the
Collateral. Borrower owns and holds good and marketable title to the assets and
property, including, without limitation, intangible property and contract rights
(including without limitation the intellectual property identified on Exhibit 2
to the Security Agreement), constituting the Collateral and that there are no
Liens, claims or encumbrances on the Collateral other than those Liens and
encumbrances not exceeding One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the
aggregate and scheduled on Exhibit 3 to the Security Agreement (“Permitted
Liens") and with respect to the intellectual property identified on Exhibit 2 to
the Security Agreement, other than the licenses, assignments or other transfers
of rights or interests, covenants not to sue, or adverse claims, with respect to
such property (“Adverse Interests”) that are identified as Permitted Liens,
there are no Adverse Interests, and any maintenance fees with respect to such
property are current.

  (f)   Monthly Operating Report. The monthly operating report for March 2006
attached as Exhibit F hereto in all material respects fairly represents the
assets and liabilities of Borrowers as of the dates set forth therein; provided,
however, the amount of the Obligations as of March 31, 2006 was $3,087,500 plus
the amount of Lender’s expenses incurred as of that date.

  19.   Waiver. Borrowers waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of
dishonor, protest and notice of protest of this Note, and shall pay all costs of
collection w hen incurred, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees, costs and other expenses. The right to plead any and all statutes of
limitations as a defense to any demands hereunder is hereby waived to the full
extent permitted by law.

  20.   Indemnification. Borrowers hereby indemnify Lender for any fees, costs
and expenses (including counsel and financial advisor fees and) incurred in
connection with this Note, the other Loan Documents, and any order(s) relating
thereto, other than fees, costs and expenses arising directly as a result of
Holder’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This covenant shall survive
termination of this Note and payment of the Obligations.

  21.   Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by, and construed and
enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, excluding
conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any
other jurisdiction, except to the extent governed by the Bankruptcy Code.

  22.   Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Note and the Security
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on any successor to
Borrowers and to any successor or assign of Holder.

  23.   Issuance of Stock; Reconstitution of Boards of Directors. If the
Borrowers fail to pay the Obligations in full on or prior to the Maturity Date
(for purposes of this Section 23, a “Section 23 Default”) then, at the option of
Lender and to the extent permitted by applicable law: (a) Borrowers shall pay
Lender the sum of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000) as a late payment
fee, (b) each Borrower shall issue to Holder, for the sum of Four Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($400,000), payable by setoff against the Obligations owed to
the Lender hereunder, all authorized unissued  shares of common stock of such
Borrower, legally available for issuance, and/or (c) each Borrower shall,
pursuant to (i) the Financing Orders and (ii) Section 303 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, 8 Del. C. § 303 (“Section 303”),
reconstitute its board of directors (including, if necessary, name, constitute
or appoint directors in place of or in addition to all or some of the directors
then in office) so that the majority of the board of directors of each Borrower
is satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion; provided,
however, that in the event that at the Maturity Date the Borrowers are then
parties to one or more existing contracts with a credible buyer(s) with respect
to a Bona Fide Offer(s) (as defined in Exhibit D) that will provide funds to
Borrowers in an aggregate amount sufficient to enable Borrowers to repay the
Obligations in full within thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date, the
issuance of stock and reconstitution of the boards of directors provided for in
this Section 23 shall not occur unless and until Borrowers fail to pay the
Obligations in full on or before thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date;
provided, further, however, that the issuance of stock and reconstitution of the
boards of directors pursuant hereto shall not be deemed to satisfy Borrowers’
obligation to repay the Obligations, which shall remain in effect under this
Note. Borrowers further agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law: (a) if all of the current directors choose to resign from their
positions on the boards of directors before reconstitution of the boards of
directors pursuant hereto, prior to such resignations becoming effective the
Borrowers shall, pursuant to (i) the Financing Orders and (ii) Section 303,
appoint the Chief Executive Officer as a director to serve in such capacity upon
the resignations of such directors, and (b) the Borrowers shall cooperate in
good faith with Lender and take any and all actions necessary to facilitate the
actions contemplated by this Section 23, including, without limitation, as a
condition precedent to any Subsequent Loans the execution and deposit into
escrow by the Borrowers and directors of any and all documents, in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender, reasonably requested by Lender to confirm that
they will comply with their respective obligations under this Section 23.

  24.   Warrants; Equity Rights. Holder shall receive warrants for the right to
purchase 6.3% of the capital stock of Borrowers, as reorganized under a chapter

FINAL ORDER AUTHORIZING POST-PETITION SECURED FINANCING
PURSUANT TO SECTION 364 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE

Upon the motion, dated March 15, 2006 (the “Motion”), of Xybernaut Corporation
and Xybernaut Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the “Debtors”), seeking entry of an
order (I) authorizing and approving the Debtors entering into a post-petition
financing facility (the “DIP Credit Facility”) with East River Capital LLC (the
“Lender”) for the purposes of obtaining post-petition loans (the “Loans”) and
credit secured by liens on property of the Debtors’ estates pursuant to sections
364(c)(2), 364(c)(3) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code and a superpriority
administrative expense claim as provided in section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy
Code, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Secured Promissory Note (the
“Secured Promissory Note”) and related loan documents submitted to the Court,
(II) authorizing the Debtors to file Exhibit C to the Secured Promissory Note
under seal, (III) authorizing the Debtors to obtain credit and incur debt under
the DIP Credit Facility on an interim basis for a period from the date of entry
of the Interim Order (as defined below) through and including the date of the
Final Hearing (as defined below) up to an aggregate amount of $1,900,000 (the
“Interim Funding Amount”) on the terms and conditions described in the Motion,
and (IV) scheduling a final hearing on the Motion (the “Final Hearing”) to
consider entry of an order (the “Final Order”) granting the relief requested in
the Motion on a final basis and approving the form of notice of the Final
Hearing; and an interim hearing on the Motion (the “Interim Hearing”) having
been held on March 21, 2006; and the Court having entered an order approving the
Motion on an interim basis (the “Interim Order”) on March 23, 2006; and the
Court having entered an Order Modifying Interim Order Authorizing Post-Petition
Secured Financing Pursuant to Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Interim
Modification Order”) on April 13, 2006; and an Amended and Restated Secured
Promissory Note (the “Amended and Restated Note”), Security Agreement (the
“Security Agreement”), Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”, and
collectively with the Amended and Restated Note and the Security Agreement, as
such documents may be amended, modified, restated and supplemented from time to
time, the “DIP Loan Documents”)5 having been filed with the Court; and the Final
Hearing having been held on April 25, 2006; and upon the evidence submitted to
the Court at the Interim Hearing and the Final Hearing, the testimony, and the
arguments of counsel, and it appearing that, absent the relief requested herein,
the Debtors will suffer immediate and irreparable harm; and it further appearing
that notice of the Motion is sufficient and complies with the requirements of
Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 4001(c), for good cause shown;

BASED ON THE RECORD ESTABLISHED BEFORE THIS COURT, THE COURT HEREBY MAKES THE
FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:

A. On July 25, 2005 (the “Petition Date”), each of the Debtors filed with this
Court a voluntary petition under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

B. The Debtors have continued in the management and operation of their
businesses and properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to sections 1107 and
1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. On August 29, 2005, the United States Trustee
appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors (the “Creditors’
Committee”). On August 31, 2005, the United States Trustee appointed an official
committee of equity security holders (the “Equity Committee”). No trustee or
examiner has been appointed in these cases.

C. This Court has jurisdiction, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b) and 1334, over
these chapter 11 cases (the “Cases”), and over the persons and property affected
hereby. Consideration of the Motion constitutes a core proceeding as defined in
28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2). The statutory predicates for the relief sought herein are
sections 364 and 107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure 4001(c) and 9018. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and
1409.

D. Pursuant to this Court’s Order (I) Authorizing Post-Petition Secured
Financing Pursuant to Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, And (II) Authorizing
Debtors to File Exhibit Under Seal entered October 27, 2005 (the “October 27,
2005 DIP Loan Order”), this Court authorized the Debtors to obtain secured
financing (the “LC Fund DIP Credit Facility”) from LC Capital Master Fund, Ltd.
(“LC Fund”) in the maximum amount of $5 million on the terms and conditions
provided in the October 27, 2005 DIP Loan Order and the loan documents
underlying the LC Fund DIP Credit Facility. The drawdowns on the LC Fund DIP
Credit Facility in the amount of $447,251.81 (the “LC Fund Prior Advances”) have
been paid in full from a portion of the proceeds of the Loans (the “Initial
Loans”) provided pursuant to the Interim Order and the Interim Modification
Order.

E. At a hearing held on April 7, 2006, on the Motion to (A) Approve Global
Settlement Pursuant to Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9019(a) and
(B) Amend Order (I) Authorizing Post-Petition Secured Financing Pursuant to
Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (II) Authorizing Debtors to File
Exhibit Under Seal (the “Motion to Approve Settlement”), filed by the Debtors to
resolve and settle certain disputes, the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee, the
Equity Committee and the Lender requested that the Interim Order be modified,
effective nunc pro tunc to March 23, 2006, the date of the entry of the Interim
Order, to increase the Interim Funding Amount from $1,900,000 to $2,400,000 to
allow for payments to be made under the terms of the Settlement Agreement (as
defined in the Motion to Approve Settlement) to LC Fund in the amount of
$300,000 and to provide for an additional funding of $200,000 to the Escrow
Account described in paragraph 6 of the Interim Order (the “Lender Escrow
Account”). By order entered April 7, 2006 (the "Settlement Order”), this Court
granted the Motion to Approve Settlement.

F. On April 13, 2006, the Interim Order was modified, nunc pro tunc to March 23,
2006, by the Interim Modification Order to, inter alia, increase the Interim
Funding Amount from $1,900,000 to $2,400,000. Pursuant to the settlement
approved in the Settlement Order, $400,000 of the Initial Loans was used to pay
in full LC Fund’s expenses under the LC Fund DIP Credit Facility.

G. Pursuant to the Interim Order and the Interim Modification Order, as of the
date hereof the Lender has provided Loans in the aggregate amount of $2,400,000
to the Debtors. As of the date hereof, the Lender has incurred approximately
$208,575 in fees and expenses that are due and payable under the DIP Credit
Facility.

H. Based upon the record made before this Court at the Interim Hearing and the
Final Hearing, an immediate need exists for the Debtors to obtain funds and
financial accommodations with which to continue their operations, meet their
payroll and other necessary, ordinary course business expenditures, acquire raw
materials, goods and services, and administer and preserve the value of their
estates. The ability of the Debtors to finance their operations requires the
additional availability of working capital, the absence of which would
immediately and irreparably harm the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors
and the possibility for a successful reorganization.

I. The Debtors are unable to obtain unsecured credit allowable only as an
administrative expense under section 503(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code or
pursuant to sections 364(a), (b) or (c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

J. The Debtors also are unable to obtain secured credit allowable under section
364(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code except on the terms and conditions provided in
this Order. The Debtors are unable to borrow funds without granting the Lender
liens on various assets of the Debtors pursuant to sections 364(c)(2), (c)(3)
and (d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and a superpriority administrative expense claim
pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, in each case as provided
in this Order. Additionally, the Debtors are unable to procure the necessary
financing on more favorable terms than those offered by the Lender pursuant to
the Amended and Restated Note and the other DIP Loan Documents.

K. The ability of the Debtors to finance their operations and the availability
of sufficient working capital through the incurrence of indebtedness for
borrowed money and other financial accommodations is vital to the Debtors’
ability to preserve and maintain their going concern value and their ability to
consummate a successful reorganization.

L. The relief requested in the Motion is necessary, essential, and appropriate
for the continued operation of the Debtors’ businesses and the management and
preservation of their properties.

M. It is in the best interest of the Debtors’ estates to be allowed to establish
the DIP Credit Facility.

N. The Debtors have requested, and the Lender has agreed, to provide a
debtor-in-possession credit facility consisting of loans of up to $2,600,000
(inclusive of the $200,000 to fund the GUC Escrow Account, as such term is
defined in the Stipulation and Order entered by the Court on or about April 7,
2006), subject to an increase in the commitment amount (the “Commitment Amount”)
of up to $3,200,000 by the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion and upon
written mutual agreement of the Lender and the Debtors, with the consent of the
Creditors’ Committee, in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan Documents.

O. After entry of the Interim Order, the Debtors, with the consent of the
Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee, requested the Lender to agree to
certain modifications to the Secured Promissory Note. In connection therewith,
(i) the Debtors and the Lender have agreed to the modifications to the Secured
Promissory Note that are reflected in the Amended and Restated Note, (ii) the
Debtors and the Lender have agreed to increase the Commitment Amount to
$3,200,000, and the Creditors’ Committee has consented to such increase in the
Commitment Amount, and (iii) upon the funding of the GUC Escrow Account in the
amount of $200,000, the Creditors’ Committee shall waive the Creditors’
Committee BFO Milestone, as such term is defined in that certain letter
agreement dated April 18, 2006 by and among the Debtors, the Creditors’
Committee and the Equity Committee and filed with the Court.

P. The Debtors have taken necessary corporate/business organizational action to
enter into and have obtained all necessary consents to and authority for the DIP
Loan Documents and the DIP Credit Facility and the transactions contemplated
thereby.

Q. The terms and conditions of the DIP Credit Facility and the DIP Loan
Documents, and the fees paid and to be paid thereunder, are fair, reasonable,
and the best available under the circumstances, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of
prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties and are
supported by reasonably equivalent value and consideration. The DIP Loan
Documents were negotiated in good faith (as the term “good faith” is used in
section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code) and at arms’ length between the Debtors
on the one hand, and the Lender on the other hand. The credit extended or to be
extended under the DIP Loan Documents has been or will be so extended in good
faith, and for valid business purposes and uses, the consequence of which is
that the Lender is entitled to the protection and benefits of section 364(e) of
the Bankruptcy Code.

R. The information set forth on Exhibit D to the Amended and Restated Note
contains certain confidential information regarding sale timelines and other
milestones, which constitutes “commercial information” as that term is used in
section 107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure
9018.

S. It is in the best interest of the Debtors’ estates that Exhibit D to the
Amended and Restated Note be filed under seal.

T. Notice of the Final Hearing and the relief requested in the Motion was given
to (i) the Office of the United States Trustee for the Eastern District of
Virginia, (ii) counsel to LC Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (iii) counsel to the
Lender, (iv) counsel to the Creditors’ Committee, (v) counsel to the Equity
Committee, (vi) all parties requesting notice pursuant to Federal Rule of
Bankruptcy Procedure 2002, (vii) any party which filed prior to March 29, 2006 a
request for notices with the Court, and (viii) any known holders of Permitted
Liens (collectively, the “Notice Parties”). Such notice constitutes good and
sufficient notice of the Final Hearing in accordance with Rule 4001(c) and
section 102(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, as required by section 364(c) of the
Bankruptcy Code, in light of the nature of the relief requested in the Motion.

U. Good and sufficient cause has been shown for the entry of this Order. Among
other things, the entry of this Order will enable the Debtors to continue the
operation of their business; will increase the possibility for a successful
reorganization; and is in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors,
and their estates.

NOW THEREFORE, based upon the Debtors’ Motion and the record before the Court
with respect to the Motion and the entire record of these Cases, and with the
consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee to the form and
entry of this Order, and good cause appearing,

IT IS ORDERED that:

DIP Credit Facility and the DIP Loan Documents are hereby approved. The Debtors

Agreement, and any related documents to which any Debtor is a party and perform
all their obligations thereunder;

and other amounts required under the DIP Credit Facility; and

2. Authorization to Enter Into and Comply with DIP Loan Documents. The Debtors
are hereby authorized, empowered and directed to perform under and comply in all
respects with all of the terms and conditions of the DIP Loan Documents, each of
which constitute valid, binding, enforceable and non-avoidable obligations of
the Debtors for all purposes during the Cases, any subsequently converted
case(s) of any Debtors under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or after the
dismissal or reorganization of any of the Cases. The Debtors are hereby
authorized and directed to (a) pay the principal, interest, the Premium, fees,
expenses and other amounts, including, without limitation, administration fees
and reasonable attorneys’, consultants and advisors’ fees and expenses, paid or
incurred by Lender at any time in connection with the financing transactions as
authorized and provided for in this Final Order and the DIP Loan Documents as
such become due without further approval of the Court, all of which unpaid
Premium, fees, costs and expenses shall be added to, and are included as part
of, the Principal Amount, secured by the Collateral and afforded all of the
rights, priorities and protections afforded to the Lender under this Final Order
and the DIP Loan Documents, and (b) perform all of their obligations under the
DIP Loan Documents, including but not limited to the issuance of stock and/or
warrants provided for in Sections 23 and 24 respectively of the Amended and
Restated Note (clauses (a) and (b) collectively, the “DIP Obligations”). The
Debtors are hereby authorized and directed to perform all acts, and execute and
comply with the terms of such other documents, instruments, and agreements as
the Lender may reasonably require as evidence of and for the protection of the
DIP Obligations and the Collateral or which may be otherwise deemed necessary by
the Lender to effectuate the terms and conditions of this Final Order and the
DIP Loan Documents, each of such additional documents, instruments, and
agreements being included in the definition of “DIP Loan Documents” contained
herein.

3. Authorization to Execute and Deliver DIP Loan Documents. Each officer of the
Debtors as may be so authorized by the Board of Directors of each of the
Debtors, acting singly, is hereby authorized to execute and deliver each of the
DIP Loan Documents, such execution and delivery to be conclusive of their
respective authority to act in the name of and on behalf of the Debtors.

4. Approval of DIP Loan Documents. The terms, conditions and covenants of the
Amended and Restated Note and the other DIP Loan Documents are hereby approved
in all respects and shall be deemed to be incorporated into the terms and
conditions of this Final Order. Such terms and conditions shall be sufficient
and conclusive evidence of the borrowing and financing arrangements among the
Debtors and the Lender for all purposes, including, without limitation, the
payment of all principal, interest, Premium, fees, Lender’s legal and other
professional expenses, and other fees and expenses, as more fully set forth in
the Amended and Restated Note and the other DIP Loan Documents.

5. Enforceable Obligations. The Amended and Restated Note and each of the other
DIP Loan Documents, respectively, shall constitute and evidence the valid and
binding joint and several obligations of each of the Debtors, which joint and
several obligations shall be enforceable against each of the Debtors in
accordance with their terms. No obligation, payment, transfer or grant of
security under the DIP Loan Documents or this Order shall be stayed, restrained,
voidable, or recoverable under the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable law,
or subject to any defense, reduction, setoff, recoupment or counterclaim.

6. Conditions Precedent. The Lender shall have no obligation to make any Loan
under the DIP Loan Documents unless the conditions precedent to making such Loan
under the DIP Loan Documents have been satisfied in full.

7. Lender Escrow Account. Pursuant to the Interim Order, the Interim
Modification Order and the DIP Loan Documents, the Debtors have used the
proceeds of the Initial Loans to establish and fund the Lender Escrow Account in
the amount of $600,000 for the benefit of the Lender. In accordance with section
8 of the Amended and Restated Note, the Lender shall be entitled at its option
to payment from the Lender Escrow Account of the DIP Obligations, including
without limitation, fees and expenses of the Lender, that are due and payable
under the Amended and Restated Note and have not been paid by the Borrowers.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender shall have no obligation at any time
to apply funds in the Lender Escrow Account to the payment of the DIP
Obligations, and neither the establishment and funding of the Lender Escrow
Account nor the withdrawal by the Lender of funds in the Lender Escrow Account
for payment of any fees, expenses or other DIP Obligations shall constitute a
waiver of any Event of Default under the DIP Loan Documents.

8. Subsequent Loans. As a condition precedent to the borrowing of any Subsequent
Loans, the Debtors shall submit to the Lender a Loan Request requesting Loans in
the amount of $208,575 or such other amount equal to the Lender’s expenses
incurred to the date of the Loan Request, and the Loans shall be used by the
Debtors to reimburse the Lender for such expenses. Proceeds of Subsequent Loans
in the amount of $200,000 shall be used by the Debtors to establish and fund the
GUC Escrow Account for the benefit of general unsecured creditors.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Lender shall have no
obligation to make any Subsequent Loans in excess of $200,000, and the Lender’s
determination as to whether to make Subsequent Loans in excess of such amount
shall be at its sole and absolute discretion.

9. LC Fund Rights and Obligations. Pursuant to the Settlement Order, LC Fund has
no further rights or obligations under the October 27, 2005 DIP Loan Order and
LC Fund DIP Credit Facility, including, but not limited to, the right to receive
the 15% Sale Premium or the Warrants (as such terms are defined in the
Settlement Order), and the October 27, 2005 DIP Loan Order and LC Fund DIP
Credit Facility have been terminated. LC Fund shall not oppose any good faith,
noncollusive, lawful sale or other disposition of the Debtors’ assets (whether
in a single or multiple sales, and whether the sale(s) were conducted under 11
U.S.C. § 363, through or under a chapter 11 plan, under state law foreclosure
rules or any other mechanism that would transfer ownership or control of the
Debtors’ assets in a manner that would satisfy the claims and liens of the
Lender under the DIP Credit Facility). Until such time as all of the DIP
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash in accordance with the
DIP Loan Documents and this Final Order, LC Fund shall not seek or exercise any
enforcement rights or remedies in connection with the Senior Secured Sales
Proceeds Interest (as such term is defined in the Settlement Order) and the
liens in connection therewith.

10. DIP Liens. The DIP Obligations shall be secured by valid, binding,
enforceable, non-avoidable and automatically perfected postpetition first
priority liens (the “DIP Liens”) on the Collateral as defined in the Security
Agreement, pursuant to sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, which
liens shall be senior to all other liens now existing or arising in the future,
but subject to the Permitted Liens listed on Schedule 3 of the Security
Agreement, and shared with LC Fund to the extent provided in the Settlement
Order; provided, however, the lien in favor of LC Fund pursuant to the
Settlement Order shall (a) be limited to the extent provided in the Settlement
Agreement (as defined in the Settlement Order) until all obligations to the
Lender under the DIP Credit Facility have been fully satisfied, (b) be
subordinate to the DIP Liens granted to the Lender in this Final Order until the
gross proceeds from the sale of the Debtors’ assets are equal to $5 million, and
(c) after the aggregate gross proceeds of sale exceed $5 million, be pari passu
with the DIP Liens in the ratio of 2.5% for LC Fund and 97.5% for the Lender (or
3.5% and 96.5%, respectively, after aggregate gross sale proceeds exceed
$10 million) until full payment of the Lender under the DIP Credit Facility,
and, thereafter, (iv) be an unsubordinate senior lien. In no event shall (a) any
lien or security interest that is avoided and preserved for the benefit of the
Debtors’ estates under section 551 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (b) any person or
entity who pays (or through the extension of credit to any Debtor, causes to be
paid) any of the DIP Obligations be subrogated, in whole or in part, to any
rights, remedies, claims, privileges, liens, or security interests granted in
favor of, or conferred upon the Lender by the terms of the DIP Loan Documents or
this Final Order, until such time as all of the DIP Obligations shall be
indefeasibly paid in full in cash in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents. For
avoidance of doubt, the DIP Liens shall not extend to the right to control
avoidance actions under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code or actions of the
estate that arose prepetition against third parties.

11. Postpetition Lien Perfection. This Order shall be sufficient and conclusive
evidence of the validity, perfection, and priority of the liens granted by the
Debtors to the Lender in the Collateral to secure all obligations incurred under
the DIP Loan Documents without the necessity of filing or recording any
financing statement, mortgage or other instrument or document which may
otherwise be required under the law of any jurisdiction or the taking of any
other action to validate or perfect the Lender’s liens, and no such filing or
recordation shall be necessary or required in order to create or perfect any
such lien.

12. Recordation of Liens. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender, in its
discretion, may file a copy of this Order as a financing statement or similar
perfection document with any recording officer designated to file financing
statements or with any registry or similar office in any jurisdiction in which
the Debtors have property, and is hereby granted relief from the automatic stay
of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code in order to do so, and all such financing
statements, mortgages, notices and other documents shall be deemed to have been
filed or recorded as of the date of this Order. The Debtors shall execute and
deliver to the Lender all such financing statements, mortgages, notices and
other documents as the Lender may reasonably request to evidence, confirm,
validate or perfect, or to insure the contemplated priority of, the DIP Liens
granted pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents and this Final Order. The Lender, in
its discretion, may file a xerographic copy of this Final Order as a financing
statement with any recording officer designated to file financing statements or
with any registry of deeds or similar office in any jurisdiction in which the
Debtors have real or personal property.

13. Commitment Termination Date. All DIP Obligations shall be immediately due
and payable in full, without notice or demand, on the date (the “Commitment
Termination Date”) that is the earliest to occur of:

(a) September 1, 2006;

(b) the effective date of any plan of reorganization for one or more of the
Debtors confirmed pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 1129;

(c) the consummation of the sale of all or substantially all assets of either
Debtor; and

(d) a date that is a “Termination Declaration Date” as defined herein.

14. Superpriority Claims. The DIP Obligations shall constitute allowed
administrative expense claims with priority, under section 364(c)(1) of the
Bankruptcy Code and otherwise, over all administrative expense claims,
dimunition claims (including claims for adequate protection) and general
unsecured claims and all other claims against the Debtors, now existing or
hereafter arising, of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without
limitation, administrative expenses of the kinds specified in or ordered
pursuant to sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(a), 503(b), 506(c), 507(a),
507(b), 546(c), 726, 1113 and 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Superpriority
Claims”), whether or not such expenses or claims may become secured by a
judgment lien or other non-consensual lien, levy or attachment, which allowed
claims shall be payable from and have recourse to all pre and post-petition
property of the Debtors and all proceeds thereof. No costs or expenses of
administration including, without limitation, professional fees allowed and
payable under sections 328, 330 and 331 or other provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code, that have been or may be incurred in these proceedings, or in any case(s)
under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code upon the conversion of any of the Cases
or in any other proceedings related to any of the foregoing (any "Successor
Cases”), and no priority claims to the Collateral are, or will be, senior to,
prior to, or on a parity with the DIP Obligations, or with any other claims of
the Lender arising hereunder.

15. Issuance of Stock; Reconstitution of Boards of Directors. In accordance with
Section 23 of the Amended and Restated Note, if the Debtors fail to pay the DIP
Obligations in full on or prior to the Maturity Date (a “Section 23 Default”),
then, at the option of the Lender and to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(a) Debtors shall pay Lender the sum of $400,000 as a late payment fee, (b) the
Debtors shall issue to Lender, for the aggregate sum of $400,000, payable by
setoff against the DIP Obligations owed to the Lender, all authorized unissued
shares of common stock of the Debtors legally available for issuance, and/or
(c) each Debtor shall, pursuant to (i) this Final Order and (ii) Section 303 of
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, 8 Del. C. § 303
(“Section 303”), reconstitute its board of directors (including, if necessary,
name, constitute or appoint directors in place of or in addition to all or some
of the directors then in office) so that the majority of the board of directors
of each Debtor is satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion;
provided, however, that in the event that at the Maturity Date the Debtors are
then parties to one or more existing contracts with a credible buyer(s) with
respect to a Bona Fide Offer(s) that will provide funds to Debtors in an
aggregate amount sufficient to enable Debtors to repay the DIP Obligations in
full within thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date, the issuance of stock and
reconstitution of the boards of directors provided for in Section 23 of the
Amended and Restated Note and herein shall not occur unless and until Debtors
fail to pay the DIP Obligations in full on or before thirty (30) days after the
Maturity Date; provided, further, however, that the issuance of stock and
reconstitution of the boards of directors pursuant hereto shall not be deemed to
satisfy Debtors’ obligation to repay the DIP Obligations, which shall remain in
effect under the Amended and Restated Note and this Final Order. Debtors further
agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) if all of the
current directors choose to resign from their positions on the boards of
directors before reconstitution of the boards of directors pursuant hereto,
prior to such resignations becoming effective the Debtors shall, pursuant to
(i) the Financing Orders and (ii) Section 303, appoint the Chief Executive
Officer as a director to serve in such capacity upon the resignations of such
directors, and (b) the Debtors shall cooperate in good faith with Lender and
take any and all actions necessary to facilitate the actions contemplated by
Section 23 of the Amended and Restated Note, including, without limitation, as a
condition precedent to any Subsequent Loans the execution and deposit into
escrow by the Debtors and directors of any and all documents, in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender, reasonably requested by Lender to confirm that
they will comply with their respective obligations under Section 23 of the
Amended and Restated Note.

16. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of the DIP Loan Documents, the Debtors
and the Lender may amend, and the Lender may waive, any provision of the DIP
Loan Documents without seeking the approval of this Court; provided, however,
that such amendment or waiver, in the judgment of the Debtors and the Lender, is
either nonprejudicial to the rights of third parties or is not material. Except
as otherwise set forth in the foregoing sentence, no waiver, modification, or
amendment of any of the provisions hereof or of the DIP Loan Documents shall be
effective unless set forth in writing, signed by the parties hereto and approved
by the Court.

17. Events of Default; Remedies. Immediately upon the occurrence of and during
the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Amended and Restated
Note), (a) the Lender may declare all obligations owing under the DIP Loan
Documents immediately due and payable and may declare the termination of any
further commitment to extend credit to the Debtors to the extent any such
commitment remains (the declaration of any of the foregoing being referred to
herein as a "Termination Declaration” and the date of such declaration being
referred to herein as the "Termination Declaration Date”), and (b) the default
interest rate set forth in the Amended and Restated Note shall be automatically
applicable to the DIP Obligations. In addition to the foregoing remedies and
other customary remedies, the automatic stay imposed by section 362 of the
Bankruptcy Code otherwise applicable to the Lender is hereby modified so that
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and
following the giving of five (5) days written notice (the “Remedies Notice
Period”) to the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee, the Equity Committee, and the
United States Trustee, the Lender shall be entitled to foreclose on all or any
portion of the Collateral, collect accounts receivable and apply the proceeds
thereof to the DIP Obligations, occupy the Debtors’ premises to fulfill orders
and sell the Collateral or otherwise exercise remedies against the Collateral
permitted by applicable non-bankruptcy law. During the Remedies Notice Period,
the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee shall be entitled
to an emergency hearing with the Court solely with respect to the issue of
whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and, unless ordered
otherwise prior to the expiration of the Remedies Notice Period, the automatic
stay, as to the Lender, shall be automatically and irrevocably terminated at the
end of the Remedies Notice Period and without further notice or order. Nothing
contained in this Final Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate the
Lender in any way to lend or advance any Loans to the Debtors upon or after the
occurrence of an Event of Default.

18. Disposition of Collateral. The Debtors shall not sell, transfer, lease,
encumber or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Collateral without the prior
written consent of the Lender (and no such consent shall be implied, from any
other action, inaction or acquiescence by Lender or an order of this Court),
except for sales of the Debtors’ Inventory (as defined in the Security
Agreement) in the ordinary course of their businesses or except as otherwise
provided for in the DIP Loan Documents.

19. Modification of Automatic Stay. The automatic stay imposed under section
362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code is hereby modified as necessary to (a) permit the
Debtors to grant the DIP Liens and to incur all liabilities and obligations to
the Lender under the DIP Loan Documents and this Final Order, and (b) authorize
the Lender to retain and apply payments hereunder.

20. Reservation of Lender’s Rights. Entry of this Final Order shall not be
deemed to prejudice any and all rights, remedies, claims and causes of action
Lender may have against third parties, and shall not prejudice the rights of
Lender from and after the entry of this Final Order to seek any other relief in
the Cases. Entry of this Final Order shall not in any way constitute: (a) a
preclusion or a waiver of any right of Lender to file, or to prosecute if
already filed, a motion for relief from stay, a motion or request for relief,
including but not limited to any adversary proceeding; (b) agreement, consent,
or acquiescence to the terms of any plan of reorganization by virtue of any term
or provision of this Final Order; (c) a preclusion of Lender’s right to sell
participations in any of the Loans and assign its rights and interest in the
Loans to third parties; (d) a preclusion or waiver to assert any other rights,
remedies or defenses available to Lender, or to respond to any motion,
application, proposal, or other action, all such rights, remedies, defenses and
opportunities to respond being specifically reserved by Lender; or (e) a
preclusion, waiver or modification of any rights or remedies that Lender has
against any other person or entity.

21. Priority of Superpriority Claims and DIP Liens. If an order dismissing any
of the Cases under section 1112 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise or
converting the Cases to Successor Cases is entered at any time, such order shall
provide (in accordance with sections 105 and 349 of the Bankruptcy Code) that
the Superpriority Claims and DIP Liens granted to the Lender pursuant to this
Order and the DIP Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and
shall maintain their priorities as provided in this Order until all obligations
to the Lender under the DIP Loan Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in
full. Except as expressly provided herein, the DIP Liens shall not be made
subject to or pari passu with any lien or security interest by any court order
heretofore or hereafter entered in the Cases; and shall be valid and enforceable
against any trustee appointed in the Cases, or in any Successor Cases. The DIP
Liens shall not be subject to section 506(c), 510, 549, 550 or 551 of the
Bankruptcy Code.

22. Section 506(c) Claims. No costs or expenses of administration which have
been, or may be hereafter, incurred at any time in the Cases or in any Successor
Cases shall be charged against the Lender, the DIP Obligations, or the
Collateral, pursuant to sections 105, 506(c), or 522 of the Bankruptcy Code, or
otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Lender, and no such consent
shall be implied from any other action, inaction or acquiescence by the Lender.

23. Good Faith. The Lender has acted in good faith in connection with this Final
Order and its reliance on the provisions of this Final Order is in good faith.
Accordingly, the Lender is entitled to the protections provided for in section
364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and if any provision of this Order is hereafter
reversed, modified, vacated or stayed, such reversal, stay, modification or
vacation shall not affect (a) the validity of the Debtors’ obligations to the
Lender as of the effective date of the reversal, stay, modification or vacation
or (b) the validity or enforceability of any lien or priority authorized or
created hereby or pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents.

24. Collateral Rights. Unless the Lender has provided its prior written consent
or all DIP Obligations have been paid in full in cash (or will be paid in full
in cash upon entry of an order approving indebtedness described in subparagraph
(a) below), and all commitments to lend have terminated, there shall not be
entered in these Cases, or in any Successor Cases, any order which authorizes
any of the following:

(a) the obtaining of credit or the incurring of indebtedness that is secured by
a security, mortgage, or collateral interest or other lien on all or any portion
of the Collateral and/or entitled to priority administrative status which is
equal or senior to those granted to the Lender herein; or

(b) the enforcement of any claimed security, mortgage, or collateral interest or
other lien of any person other than the Lender on all or any portion of the
Collateral (other than Permitted Liens).

25. Proceeds. Without limiting the provisions and protections of paragraph 24
above, if at any time prior to the repayment in full of all DIP Obligations and
the termination of the Lender’s obligation to make loans under the DIP Credit
Facility, including subsequent to the confirmation of any plan with respect to
any or all of the Debtors’ estates, any trustee, any examiner with expanded
powers or any responsible officer, subsequently appointed shall obtain credit or
incur debt, then all of the cash proceeds derived from such credit or debt shall
immediately be turned over to the Lender in reduction of the DIP Obligations.

26. Payment on or Before Effective Date of Plan. Unless the DIP Obligations have
been paid in full on an earlier date, the DIP Obligations shall be indefeasibly
paid in full on or before the effective date of any plan of reorganization
confirmed in the Cases.

27. Survival of Final Order. The provisions of this Final Order and the liens
and superpriority claims and all other rights and remedies of the Lender under
this Final Order and the DIP Loan Documents shall survive, and shall not be
modified, impaired or discharged by (a) entry of an order converting any of the
Cases to a case under chapter 7, dismissing any of the Cases, terminating the
joint administration of the Cases or by another act or omission, or (b) entry of
an order confirming a plan of reorganization. The terms and provisions of this
Final Order and the DIP Loan Documents shall continue in these Cases, or any
Successor Cases, and the liens, superpriority claims and all other rights and
remedies of the Lender granted by this Final Order and the DIP Loan Documents
shall continue in full force and effect until all the obligations to the Lender
under the DIP Loan Documents are indefeasibly paid in full and discharged (such
payment being without prejudice to any terms or provisions contained in the DIP
Loan Documents which survive such discharge by their terms); provided, that, all
obligations and duties of Lender hereunder, under the DIP Loan Documents or
otherwise with respect to any future loans or advances or otherwise shall
terminate immediately upon the earlier of the date of any Event of Default or
the date that a plan of reorganization of the Debtors becomes effective unless
the Lender has given its express prior written consent thereto, no such consent
being implied from any other action, inaction or acquiescence by Lender. The DIP
Obligations shall not be discharged by entry of an order confirming a
reorganization plan, the Debtors having waived such discharge pursuant to
section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors shall not propose or
support any reorganization plan that is not conditioned upon the payment in full
in cash of all of the DIP Obligations, on or prior to the earlier to occur of
(a) the effective date of such plan or (b) the Commitment Termination Date.

28. No Modification or Stay of this Final Order. Based on the findings set forth
in this Final Order and in accordance with section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy
Code, which is applicable to the DIP Credit Facility contemplated by this Final
Order, in the event any or all of the provisions of this Final Order are
hereafter modified, amended or vacated by a subsequent order of this or any
other Court, no such modification, amendment or vacation shall affect the
validity and enforceability of any advances made hereunder or lien or priority
authorized or created hereby. Notwithstanding any such modification, amendment
or vacation, any claim granted to the Lender hereunder arising prior to the
effective date of such modification, amendment or vacation of any of the
protections granted to the Lender herein shall be governed in all respects by
the original provisions of this Final Order, and the Lender shall be entitled to
all of the rights, remedies, privileges and benefits granted herein, with
respect to any such claim. Since the Loans made pursuant to the DIP Loan
Documents are made in reliance on this Final Order, the obligations owed to the
Lender prior to the effective date of any stay, modification, amendment or
vacation of this Final Order cannot, as a result of any subsequent order in the
Cases, or in any Successor Cases, be subordinated, lose their lien priority or
superpriority administrative expense claim status, or be deprived of the benefit
of the status of the liens and claims granted to the Lender under this Final
Order and/or the DIP Loan Documents.

29. Fees and Expenses. As provided in the Amended and Restated Note, all
reasonable, documented fees and expenses of the Lender, including, without
limitation, reasonable legal, consultant and advisory fees and expenses, in
connection with the Loans, the DIP Loan Documents, and the DIP Credit Facility
will be paid by the Debtors, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated.

30. Binding Effect. The provisions of this Final Order shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Lender, the Debtors and their respective successors
and assigns (including any trustee or other fiduciary hereafter appointed as a
legal representative of the Debtors or with respect to the property of the
estates of the Debtors) whether in the Cases, in any Successor Cases, or upon
dismissal of any such Chapter 11 or Chapter 7 case.

31. No Waiver. The failure of the Lender to seek relief or otherwise exercise
its rights and remedies under the DIP Loan Documents, the DIP Credit Facility,
or this Final Order, as applicable, shall not constitute a waiver of any of the
Lender’s rights hereunder, thereunder, or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything
herein, the entry of this Final Order is without prejudice to, and does not
constitute a waiver of, expressly or implicitly, or otherwise impair (a) the
rights of the Lender under the Bankruptcy Code or under non-bankruptcy law,
including, without limitation, the rights of the Lender to (i) request
conversion of either of the Cases to cases under Chapter 7, dismissal of either
of the Cases, or the appointment of a trustee in either of the Cases (but only
in the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or
(ii) propose, subject to section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code, a Chapter 11 plan
or plans or (b) any of the rights, claims, or privileges (whether legal,
equitable or otherwise) of the Lender.

32. No Third Party Rights. Except as expressly provided herein, this Final Order
does not create any rights for the benefit of any third party, creditor, equity
holder or any direct, indirect, or incidental beneficiary.

33. Enforceability. This Final Order shall constitute findings of fact and
conclusions of law pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052 and shall take effect and be
fully enforceable immediately upon execution hereof.

34. Objections Overruled. All objections to the Motion to the extent not
withdrawn or resolved, are hereby overruled.

35. No Waiver or Modification of Final Order. The Debtors irrevocably waive any
right to seek any modification or extension of this Final Order without the
prior written consent of the Lender and no such consent shall be implied by any
other action, inaction or acquiescence of the Lender.

36. Exhibit D. The Debtors’ request to file Exhibit D to the Amended and
Restated Note under seal is granted. Exhibit D to the Amended and Restated Note
shall be held by the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court under seal until October 31,
2006. The Debtors may share the information contained in Exhibit D to the
Amended and Restated Note with creditors and equity interest holders, as
appropriate, if the requesting party executes a confidentiality agreement. If
the Debtors refuse to share the information with such party, or if the parties
cannot agree upon the terms of the confidentiality agreement, the requesting
party can file a motion with the Court to hear the dispute.

37. Inconsistency. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of any DIP Loan Document and of this Final Order, the provisions of
this Final Order shall govern and control.

38. Jurisdiction. This Court retains and reserves jurisdiction to interpret and
enforce all provisions of this Final Order.

SO ORDERED by the Court this 1st day of May 2006.
