      (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Bank will make advances, from time to time, to the Borrower, in such amounts as
the Borrower may request and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from
time to time between the date of this Agreement and the Maturity Date, upon
notice by the Borrower to the Bank given in accordance with Section 2.2 of this
Agreement, such sums as requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate
principal amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at
one time equal to the Advance Limit. Each request for an Advance hereunder shall
constitute a representation by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in
this Agreement have been satisfied on the date of such request.

      (ii) The Bank may, from time to time, in its sole and absolute discretion,
permit the outstanding amount of the Facility, or the aggregate outstanding
amount of all loans, advances and/or other financial accommodations to exceed
the limitations set forth in this Agreement. In any such event, and without
limiting the rights of the Bank to demand payment of the Facility, in whole or
in part, at any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall immediately repay
to the Bank, and/or furnish cash collateral to the Bank, for such portion of the
outstanding loans, advances or other financial accommodations which equals the
amount(s) by which the formulas or the limitations set forth herein have been
exceeded. If the outstanding amount of the loans, advances or other financial

Agreement.

      Section 2.2 Procedures for Making the Advances Under the Facility. Subject

      and warranties set forth in this Agreement.

            (iv) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2.2 to the

request the Bank, to make any Advances upon the occurrence of a Default or an
Event of Default.

      Section 2.3 The Revolving Note. The obligation of the Borrower to repay
all monies advanced by the Bank to the Borrower in connection with the Facility
shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note. The Revolving Note, inter alia, shall

as provided for in Section 2.5 hereof, and (iii) bear interest at the rates and
be payable on the dates and in the manner provided for in Section 2.4 hereof.

      Section 2.4 Interest Rate. (i) Subject to terms and conditions of this
Agreement, interest shall be computed daily on the advanced and unpaid principal
amount of all Advances from the date on which each such Advance is made until
the principal thereof shall be paid in full, hereunder at a rate per annum equal
to:

            (1)   for any Prime Rate Loan, the Prime Rate minus one hundred
                  (100) basis points, as in effect from time to time; and

            (2)   for any LIBOR Loan, at all times during the applicable
                  Interest Period, one hundred fifty (150) basis points over and
                  above LIBOR for such Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.

      (ii) Interest on all Advances outstanding shall be paid monthly, in
arrears, (a) with respect to any Prime Rate Loan on the first day of each and
every month until the Maturity Date, (b) with respect to any LIBOR Loan, on the
last day of each applicable Interest Period, (c) with respect to any Prime Rate
Loan or LIBOR Loan whose principal balance is to be paid prior to the last day
of any such month, on the date any such loan is paid in full or (d) or such
earlier date as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan
Documents; at which time all unpaid principal and accrued interest, together
with any fees, charges, expenses and other sums, if any, shall be due and
payable to the Bank; which fees shall be deemed to have been earned.

      (iii) All computations of interest called for under the Facility shall be
made on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

      Section 2.5 Payment of Principal. The aggregate outstanding principal
balance of the Facility shall be due and payable by the Borrower to the Bank on
the Maturity Date or such earlier date as a result of the occurrence of an Event
of Default under the Loan Documents; at which time all unpaid principal and
accrued interest, together with any,


                                      -24-
<PAGE>

fees, charges, expenses and other sums, if any, due and owing to the Bank; which
fees shall be deemed to have been earned.

      Section 2.6 Optional Prepayment of Principal. (i) With respect to any
LIBOR Loan under the Facility, the Borrower may prepay a LIBOR Loan only upon at
least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Bank (which notice
shall be irrevocable), and any such prepayment shall occur only on the last day
of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank,
upon request of the Bank and in addition to the payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest due on the Facility, together with all sums, expenses and fees
due and owing to the Bank, which fees shall be deemed to have been earned, such
amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of the Bank)
to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of: (i) any
payment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period
for such Loan; (ii) any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Loan on the
date specified by Borrower's written notice; (iii) any failure by the Borrower
to pay a LIBOR Loan on the date for payment specified in the Borrower's written
notice. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a
"yield maintenance fee" in an amount computed as follows: The current rate for
United States Treasury securities (bills on a discounted basis shall be
converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date closest to the term chosen
pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which the prepayment is made, shall be
subtracted from the LIBOR RATE in effect at the time of prepayment. If the
result is zero or a negative number, there shall be no yield maintenance fee. If
the result is a positive number, then the resulting percentage shall be
multiplied by the amount of the principal balance being prepaid. The resulting
amount shall be divided by 360 and multiplied by the number of days remaining in
the term chosen pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which the prepayment
is made. Said amount shall be reduced to present value calculated by using the
above referenced United States Treasury securities rate and the number of days
remaining in the term chosen pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which
prepayment is made. The resulting amount shall be the yield maintenance fee due
to the Bank upon the prepayment of a LIBOR Loan. Each reference in this
paragraph to "LIBOR Rate Election" shall mean the election by the Borrower of
the LIBOR Rate. If by reason of an Event of Default, the Bank elects to declare
the Revolving Note to be immediately due and payable, then any yield maintenance
fee with respect to a LIBOR Loan shall become due and payable in the same manner
as though Borrower had exercised such right of prepayment.

      (ii) With respect to any Prime Rate Loan under the Facility, the Borrower
may prepay, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty therefor, the
outstanding principal amount of the Facility, at any time during the term of the
Facility, provided, any prepayment of principal of the Facility shall be
accompanied by payment of all accrued and unpaid interest due on the Facility,
together with all sums, expenses and fees due and owing to the Bank, which fees
shall be deemed to have been earned.

      Section 2.7 Mandatory Prepayments. In the event that at any time during
the term of the Facility, the outstanding principal balance of the Facility
exceeds the Advance Limit, the Borrower, immediately and without delay, shall
make any and all such


                                      -25-
<PAGE>

payments necessary to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Facility
to be less than or equal to the Advance Limit.

      Section 2.8 Conversion and Continuation Options. (i) The Borrower may
elect from time to time to (a) Convert any LIBOR Loan to a Prime Rate Loan or
(b) Convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan, by giving the Bank at least three
(3) Business Days' prior irrevocable notice of such election (hereinafter
referred to as a "Notice Conversion"), provided that any such Notice of
Conversion provided with respect to a LIBOR Loan may only be made on the last
day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Any such Notice of Conversion
provided with respect to a LIBOR Loan shall specify the length of the initial
Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. All or any part of any outstanding
LIBOR Loans and Prime Rate Loans may be Converted as provided herein, provided,
that (i) no Event of Default has occurred, (ii) any such Conversion may only be
made if, after giving effect thereto, Section 2.9 shall not have been
contravened, and (iii) no Prime Rate Loan may be Converted into a LIBOR Loan
after the date that is one month prior to the Maturity Date.

      (ii) Any LIBOR Loan may be Continued as such upon the expiration of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving notice
to the Bank, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, of
the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loan, provided,
that no LIBOR Loan may be Continued (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, (ii) any such Continuation may only be made if, after giving effect
thereto, Section 2.9 shall not have been contravened or (iii) after the date
that is one month prior to the Maturity Date and provided, further, that if the
Borrower shall fail to give such notice or if such Continuation is not permitted
pursuant to this Section 2.8, such LIBOR Loan shall be automatically converted
to a Prime Rate Loan on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period.

      Section 2.9 Maximum Number of Tranches. All Advances, Conversions and
Continuations under the Facility and all selections of Interest Periods under
the Facility shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so
that, after giving effect thereto, in no event shall there be more than five (5)
Tranches outstanding at any time.

      Section 2.10 Increased Cost The Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time
to time, such amounts as the Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate
the Bank for any costs incurred by the Bank, which the Bank determines are
attributable to its making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan hereunder or its
obligation hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by the Bank
under this Agreement or the Revolving Note in respect of any such LIBOR Loan or
such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable
shall hereinafter be referred to as "Additional Costs"), resulting from any
change, after the date of this Agreement, in United States Federal, state,
municipal, or foreign laws or regulations, including, but nor limited to

requirements applying to a class of banks including the Bank of or under any
United States Federal, state, municipal or any


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

foreign laws or regulations (whether or not having the force of law) by any
court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof (hereinafter referred to as a "Regulatory Change"),
which: (1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Bank
under this Agreement or the Revolving Note in respect of any of such LIBOR Loan

or modifies any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirements relating to
any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other
liabilities of the Bank, including, but not limited to, any of LIBOR Loan or
deposits referred to in the definition of the LIBOR Interest Rate; or (3)
imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Revolving Note (or
any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

      Section 2.11 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Agreement to the contrary, if the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or
regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency shall
make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to (1) maintain its commitment, as
set forth in this Revolving Note, then upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank,
the commitment of the Bank shall terminate; or (2) maintain or fund a LIBOR
Loan, then upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank the outstanding principal
amount of the borrowings based upon the LIBOR Interest Rate, together with
interest accrued thereon, and any and all other fees, charges and other sums, if
any, due and payable to the Bank shall be converted and charged at an interest
rate, determined by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion (hereinafter
referred to as an "Alternate Base Rate Loan"); which determination shall be
deemed to be conclusive.

      Section 2.12 Disaster Notwithstanding any term or provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, if the Bank determines, in its sole and absolute
discretion, that:

      (a) Quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in
the definition of LIBOR Interest Rate are not being provided in the relevant
amounts or for the relative maturities for purposes of determining the rate of
interest on a LIBOR Loan as provided in this Agreement or the Revolving Note; or

      (b) The relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR
Interest Rate, as the case may be, upon the basis of which the rate of interest
for any such type of loan is to be determined do not accurately cover the cost
to the Bank of making or maintaining such type of a LIBOR Loan; then the Bank
shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon until the Bank
notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no
longer exist, (a) the obligation of the Bank to make a LIBOR Loan shall be
suspended; and (b) all previous advances based upon the LIBOR Interest Rate
shall then be converted to a Prime Rate Loan.

      Section 2.13 Use of Proceeds The proceeds of each of the Advances will be

of public and private debts, without counterclaim or set-off and free and clear
of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments.
All payments so received shall constitute payment to the Bank and shall be
applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to the
Bank (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the
balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after
demand, payments will be applied to the Obligations of the Borrower to the Bank
as the Bank determines in its sole discretion.

evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the
Bank for the use or the forbearance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed
the maximum permissible under applicable law. As used herein, the term
"applicable law" shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided,
however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a
higher permissible rate of interest, then the Revolving Note shall


                                      -28-

be governed by such new law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is
expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Borrower and the Bank in the
execution, delivery and acceptance of the Revolving Note to contract in strict
compliance with the laws of the New Jersey from time to time in effect. If,
under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof
or of any of the Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision
shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed
by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be
reduced to the limits of such validity, and if under or from circumstances
whatsoever the Bank should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed
the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby and not to
the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of
all agreements between the Borrower, any Guarantor and the Bank.
