     Agreement and all the Related Documents have been duly authorized by all
     necessary action by Borrower and do not conflict with, result in a
     violation of, or constitute a default under (1) any provision of Borrower's
     articles of incorporation or organization, or bylaws, or any agreement or
     other instrument binding upon Borrower or (2) any law, governmental
     regulation, court decree, or order applicable to Borrower or to Borrower's
     properties.

     Financial Information. Each of Borrower's financial statements supplied to
     Lender truly and completely disclosed Borrower's financial condition as of
     the date of the statement, and there has been no material adverse change in
     Borrower's financial condition subsequent to the date of the most recent
     financial statement supplied to Lender. Borrower has no material contingent
     obligations except as disclosed in such financial statements.

     Legal Effect. This Agreement constitutes, and any instrument or agreement
     Borrower is required to give under this Agreement when delivered will
     constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable
     against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

     Properties. Except as contemplated by this Agreement or as previously
     disclosed in Borrower's financial statements or in writing to Lender and as
     accepted by Lender, and except for property tax liens for taxes not
     presently due and payable, Borrower owns and has good title to all of
     Borrower's properties free and clear of all Security Interests, and has not
     executed any security documents or financing statements relating to such
     properties. All of Borrower's properties are titled in Borrower's legal
     name, and Borrower has not used or filed a financing statement under any
     other name for at least the last five (5) years.

     Hazardous Substances. Except as disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender in
     writing, Borrower represents and warrants that: (1) During the period of
     Borrower's ownership of Borrower's Collateral, there has been no use,
     generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, disposal, release or
     threatened release of any Hazardous Substance by any person on, under,
     about or from any of the Collateral. (2) Borrower has no knowledge of, or
     reason to believe that there has been (a) any breach or violation of any
     Environmental Laws; (b) any use, generation, manufacture, storage,
     treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous
     Substance on, under, about or from the Collateral by any prior owners or
     occupants of any of the Collateral; or (c) any actual or threatened
     litigation or claims of any kind by any person relating to such matters.
     (3) Neither Borrower nor any tenant, contractor, agent or other authorized
     user of any of the Collateral shall use, generate, manufacture, store,
     treat, dispose of or release any Hazardous Substance on, under, about or
     from any of the Collateral; and any such activity shall be conducted in
     compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations,
     and ordinances, including without limitation all Environmental Laws.
     Borrower authorizes Lender and its agents to enter upon the Collateral to
     make such inspections and tests as Lender may deem appropriate to determine
     compliance of the Collateral with this section of the Agreement. Any
     inspections or tests made by Lender shall be at Borrower's expense and for
     Lender's purposes only and shall not be construed to create any
     responsibility or liability on the part of Lender to Borrower or to any
     other person. The representations and warranties contained herein are based
     on Borrower's due diligence in investigating the Collateral for hazardous
     waste and Hazardous Substances. Borrower hereby (1) releases and waives any
     future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event
     Borrower becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws, and
     (2) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender against any and all
     claims, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, and expenses which Lender
     may directly or indirectly sustain or suffer resulting from a breach of
     this section of the Agreement or as a consequence of any use, generation,
     manufacture, storage, disposal, release or

     threatened release of a hazardous waste or substance on the Collateral. The
     provisions of this section of the Agreement, including the obligation to
     indemnify, shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness and the
     termination, expiration or satisfaction of this Agreement and shall not be
     affected by Lender's acquisition of any interest in any of the Collateral,
     whether by foreclosure or otherwise.

     Litigation and Claims. No litigation, claim, investigation, administrative
     proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against
     Borrower is pending or threatened, and no other event has occurred which

     properties, other than litigation, claims, or other events, if any, that
     have been disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender in writing.

     and reports that are or were required to be filed, have been filed, and all
     taxes, assessments and other governmental charges have been paid in full,
     except those presently being or to be contested by Borrower in good faith
     in the ordinary course of business and for which adequate reserves have
     been provided.

     Lien Priority. Unless otherwise previously disclosed to Lender in writing,
     Borrower has not entered into or granted any Security Agreements, or
     permitted the filing or attachment of any Security Interests on or
     affecting any of the Collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment
     of Borrower's Loan and Note, that would be prior or that may in any way be
     superior to Lender's Security Interests and rights in and to such
     Collateral.

     Binding Effect. This Agreement, the Note, all Security Agreements (if any),
     and all Related Documents are binding upon the signers thereof, as well as
     upon their successors, representatives and assigns, and are legally
     enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

     all material adverse changes in Borrower's financial condition, and (2) all

     will deliver to Lender from time to time the policies or certificates of
     insurance in form satisfactory to Lender, including stipulations that
     coverages will not be cancelled or diminished without at least ten (10)
     days prior written notice to Lender. Each insurance policy also shall
     include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of Lender will not
     be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Borrower or any
     other person. In connection with all policies covering assets in which

     unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any of Borrower's properties,
     income, or profits.

     Performance. Perform and comply, in a timely manner, with all terms,
     conditions, and provisions set forth in this Agreement, in the Related

     Collateral, including without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities
     Act. Borrower may contest in good faith any such law, ordinance, or
     regulation and withhold compliance during any proceeding, including
     appropriate appeals, so long as Borrower has notified Lender in writing
     prior to doing so and so long as, in Lender's sole opinion, Lender's
     interests in the Collateral are not jeopardized. Lender may require
     Borrower to post adequate security or a surety bond, reasonably
     satisfactory to Lender, to protect Lender's interest.

     Inspection. Permit employees or agents of Lender at any reasonable time to
     inspect any and all Collateral for the Loan or Loans and Borrower's other
     properties and to examine or audit Borrower's books, accounts, and records
     and to make copies and memoranda of Borrower's books, accounts, and
     records. If Borrower now or at any time hereafter maintains any records

     a third party, Borrower, upon request of Lender, shall notify such party to
     permit Lender free access to such records at all reasonable times and to
     provide Lender with copies of any records it may request, all at Borrower's
     expense.

     at least annually, with a certificate executed by Borrower's chief
     financial officer, or other officer or person acceptable to Lender,
     certifying that the representations and warranties set forth in this

     result of an intentional or unintentional action or omission on Borrower's
     part or on the part of any third party, on property owned and/or occupied
     by Borrower, any environmental activity where damage may result to the
     environment, unless such environmental

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     activity is pursuant to and in compliance with the conditions of a permit
     issued by the appropriate federal, state or local governmental authorities;
     shall furnish to Lender promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days
     after receipt thereof a copy of any notice, summons, lien, citation,
     directive, letter or other communication from any governmental agency or
     instrumentality concerning any intentional or unintentional action or
     omission on Borrower's part in connection with any environmental activity
     whether or not there is damage to the environment and/or other natural
     resources.

     Additional Assurances. Make, execute and deliver to Lender such promissory
     notes, mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, assignments,
     financing statements, instruments, documents and other agreements as Lender
     or its attorneys may reasonably request to evidence and secure the Loans
     and to perfect all Security Interests.

LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would
materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to
comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including
but not limited to Borrower's failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts
Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related
Documents, Lender on Borrower's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take
any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to
discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and
other claims, at any time levied or placed on any Collateral and paying all
costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear
interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by
Lender to the date of repayment by Borrower. All such expenses will become a
part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A) be payable on demand;
(B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable
with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any
applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be
treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note's
maturity.

NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this
Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of
Lender:

     Capital Expenditures. Make or contract to make capital expenditures,
     including leasehold improvements, in any fiscal year in excess of
     $_____________________________________________________or incur liability
     for rentals of property (including both real and personal property) in an
     amount which, together with capital expenditures, shall in any fiscal year
     exceed such sum.

     Continuity of Operations. (1) Engage in any business activities
     substantially different than those in which Borrower is presently engaged,
     (2) cease operations, liquidate, merge, transfer, acquire or consolidate
     with any other entity, change its name, dissolve or transfer or sell
     Collateral out of the ordinary course of business, or (3) pay any dividends
     on Borrower's stock (other than dividends payable in its stock), provided,
     however that notwithstanding the foregoing, but only so long as no Event of
     Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the payment of
     dividends, if Borrower is a "Subchapter S Corporation" (as defined in the
     Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), Borrower may pay cash dividends
     on its stock to its shareholders from time to time in amounts necessary to
     enable the shareholders to pay income taxes and make estimated income tax
     payments to satisfy their liabilities under federal and state law which
     arise solely from their status as Shareholders of a Subchapter S
     Corporation because of their ownership of shares of Borrower's stock, or
     purchase or retire any of Borrower's outstanding shares or alter or amend
     Borrower's capital structure.

CESSATION OF ADVANCES. If Lender has made any commitment to make any Loan to
Borrower, whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement, Lender
shall have no obligation to make Loan Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if:
(A) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the terms of this Agreement or
any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any
Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes
incompetent or becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar
proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (C) there occurs a material adverse
change in Borrower's financial condition, in the financial condition of any
Guarantor, or in the value of any Collateral securing any Loan; or (D) any
Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such
Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other loan with Lender; or (E) Lender in
good faith deems itself insecure, even though no Event of Default shall have
occurred.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Borrower's accounts with Lender (whether checking
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future.
However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law Borrower authorizes Lender, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the
Indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender's option, to
administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's
charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement:

 Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due
     under the Loan.

     Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
     obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of
     the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
     covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
     Borrower.

     Environmental Default. Failure of any party to comply with or perform when
     due any term, obligation, convenant or condition contained in any
     environmental agreement executed in connection with any Loan.

     Default in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under
     any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
     agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
     that may materially affect any of Borrower's or any Grantor's property or
     Borrower's or any Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their
     respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related
     Documents.

     False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
     furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this
     Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
     respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or
     misleading at any time thereafter.

     Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
     going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver
     for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of
     creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
     proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

     Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
     ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
     document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
     time and for any reason.

     Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or
     forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
     repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
     governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes
     a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts,
     with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
     good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
     claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if
     Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture
     proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
     creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
     its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

     Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
     to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or
     becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability
     under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness. In the event of a death, Lender,
     at its option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor's
     estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty
     in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of
     Default.

     Change in Ownership. Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent (25%)
     or more of the common stock of Borrower.

     Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial
     condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
     Loan is impaired.

     Insecurity. Lender in good faith believes itself insecure.

     Right to Cure. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is
     curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given
     a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it
     may be cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Borrower or
     Grantor, as the case may be, after receiving written notice from Lender
     demanding cure of such default: (1) cure the default within fifteen (15)
     days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately
     initiate steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be
     sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continue and complete all
     reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as
     reasonably practical.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where
otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments
and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any
other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make
further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all
Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any
kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights
and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:

     Amendments. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
     constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the
     matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or amendment to this
     Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the
     party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or
     amendment.

     Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of
     Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
     Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
     this Agreement. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
     Agreement, and Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses of such
     enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
     expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
     legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
     vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
     post-judgment collection services. Borrower also shall pay all court costs
     and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.

     Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
     purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
     of this Agreement.

     Consent to Loan Participation. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's
     sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation
     interests in the Loan to one or more purchasers, whether related or
     unrelated to Lender. Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever,
     to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information or
     knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating
     to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may
     have with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all
     notices of sale of participation interests, as well as all notices of any
     repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the
     purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the
     absolute owners of such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights
     granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale
     of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of
     offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or
     against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally
     agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower's
     obligation under the Loan irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any
     holder of any interest in the Loan. Borrower further agrees that the
     purchaser of any such participation interests may enforce its interests
     irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have
     against Lender.

     Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced
     in accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Mississippi.
     This Agreement has been accepted by Lender in the State of Mississippi.

     No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
     under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
     Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
     shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
     Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a
     waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
     provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by
     Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between
     Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights
     or of any of Borrower's or any Grantor's obligations as to any future
     transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this
     Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not
     constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is
     required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the
     sole discretion of Lender.

     Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be
     given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when
     actually received by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), when
     deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed,
     when deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or
     registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the
     beginning of this Agreement. Any party may change its address for notices
     under this Agreement by giving formal written notice to the other parties,
     specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address.
     For notice purposes, Borrower agrees to keep Lender informed at all times
     of Borrower's current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by
     law, if there is more than one Borrower, any notice given by Lender to any
     Borrower is deemed to be notice given to all Borrowers.

     Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
     this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any
     circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal,
     invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the
     offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal,
     valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it
     shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required
     by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of
     this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of
     any other provision of this Agreement.

     Subsidiaries and Affiliates of Borrower. To the extent the context of any
     provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without
     limitation any representation, warranty or covenant, the word "Borrower" as
     used in this Agreement shall include all of Borrower's subsidiaries and
     affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, under no circumstances
     shall this Agreement be construed to require Lender to make any Loan or
     other financial accommodation to any of Borrower's subsidiaries or
     affiliates.

     Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained by or on
     behalf of Borrower shall bind Borrower's successors and assigns and shall
     inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. Borrower
     shall not, however, have the right to assign Borrower's rights under this
     Agreement or any interest therein, without the prior written consent of
     Lender.

     Survival of Representations and Warranties. Borrower understands and agrees
     that in making the Loan, Lender is relying on all representations,
     warranties, and covenants made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any
     certificate or other instrument delivered by Borrower to Lender under this
     Agreement or the Related Documents. Borrower further agrees that regardless
     of any investigation made by Lender, all such representations, warranties
     and covenants will survive the making of the Loan and delivery to Lender of
     the Related Documents, shall be continuing in nature, and shall remain in
     full force and effect until such time as Borrower's Indebtedness shall be
     paid in full, or until this Agreement shall be terminated in the manner
     provided above, whichever is the last to occur.

     Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
     Agreement.

     Waive Jury. All parties to this Agreement hereby waive the right to any
     jury trial in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by any party
     against any other party. (Initial Here _______)
