                  Term Loan to be made,  then Lender shall make such  Additional

                  Subsidiaries  for such fiscal year  reflecting  such amount of
                  net income.  For all purposes under this  Agreement,  the Term

                          FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED
                                 REVOLVING NOTE

ORIGINAL DATE OF EXECUTION: SEPTEMBER 24, 2001
DATE OF AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT: MARCH 15, 2004

$32,500,000.00                                                NEW YORK, NEW YORK

         FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  PROTECTIVE  APPAREL  CORPORATION  OF  AMERICA,  a
Delaware corporation,  POINT BLANK BODY ARMOR, INC., a Delaware corporation, and
NDL PRODUCTS,  INC., a Florida  corporation (each a "Borrower" and collectively,
the  "Borrowers")  jointly and severally  promise to pay to the order of LASALLE
BUSINESS CREDIT, LLC (the "Lender"), at its offices located at 135 South LaSalle
Street,  Chicago,  Illinois 60603, the principal sum of Thirty-Two  Million Five
Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($32,500,000.00) on the Maturity Date, which
shall mean the last day of the Original Term, or the applicable Renewal Term, in
the event that the Loan Agreement (as defined below) is renewed, as the case may
be, or so much of such principal sum as shall be  outstanding  and unpaid on the
Maturity Date,  all as more fully set forth in the Loan and Security  Agreement,
dated  as of  September  24,  2001  (as  the  same  may  be  amended,  modified,
supplemented or restated from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"),  by and among
each of the Borrowers, DHB Industries,  Inc., as Guarantor, the DHB Subsidiaries
and the Lender.  Terms which are  capitalized in this Revolving Note but are not
otherwise  defined  shall  have  the  meanings  ascribed  to  them  in the  Loan
Agreement.  The Borrowers  further  promise jointly and severally to pay (a) the
principal of the Revolving  Loans,  as set forth in Section  2(d)(i) of the Loan
Agreement  and (b) interest on the  outstanding  principal  amount hereof on the
dates and at the rates  provided  in the Loan  Agreement,  from the date  hereof
until  payment  in  full  hereof.  This  Revolving  Note is  referred  to in and
delivered pursuant to the Loan Agreement,  and is subject to and entitled to all
provisions and benefits thereof.

         The Borrowers  hereby authorize the Lender to charge any account of the
Borrowers  maintained with the Lender for all sums payable hereunder as and when
such sums  become  due.  If payment  hereunder  becomes due and payable on a day
which is not a Business  Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding  Business  Day,  and  interest  shall be payable  thereon at the rate
specified during such extension. Credit shall be given for payments made, in the
manner and at the times provided in the Loan Agreement.  It is the intent of the
parties that the rate of interest and other charges to the Borrowers  under this
Revolving  Note shall be lawful;  therefore,  if for any reason the  interest or
other charges payable hereunder are found by a court of competent  jurisdiction,
in a final  determination,  to exceed the limit  which the  Lender may  lawfully
charge the Borrowers, then the obligation to pay interest or other charges shall
automatically  be reduced  to such  limit  and,  if any amount in excess of such
limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be refunded to the Borrowers.

         The principal and all accrued interest  hereunder may be prepaid by the
Borrowers,  in part or in full,  at any  time;  provided,  however,  that if the
Borrowers terminate the Loan Agreement prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers
may be  required to pay a  prepayment  fee as provided in Section 10 of the Loan
Agreement.

                                  Exhibit A-1

<PAGE>

         The  Borrowers  waive  the  benefit  of any law  that  would  otherwise
restrict  or limit the  Lender in the  exercise  of its  right,  which is hereby
acknowledged, to set off against the Liabilities, without notice and at any time
hereafter,  any amounts  owing from the Lender to the  Borrowers.  The Borrowers
agree that the Lender  shall not be liable for any error in judgment or mistakes
of fact or law,  other than for gross  negligence.  To the extent the  Borrowers
have any  counterclaims,  they  agree to assert  any and all such  counterclaims
(other than compulsory counterclaims) by separate action.

         The Borrowers,  any other party liable with respect to the  Liabilities
evidenced hereby and any and all endorsers and accommodation  parties,  and each
one of them, if more than one, waive any and all presentment,  demand, notice of
dishonor,  protest,  and all other  notices and demands in  connection  with the
enforcement of the Lender's rights hereunder.

         The Revolving Loans evidenced hereby have been made, and this Revolving
Note has been  delivered,  at New York,  New York.  THIS REVOLVING NOTE SHALL BE
GOVERNED  AND  CONTROLLED  BY THE  INTERNAL  LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AS TO
INTERPRETATION,  ENFORCEMENT,  VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION,  EFFECT, AND IN ALL OTHER
RESPECTS,  INCLUDING WITHOUT  LIMITATION,  THE LEGALITY OF THE INTEREST RATE AND
OTHER  CHARGES,  and  shall  be  binding  upon the  Borrowers  and each of their
successors and assigns. If this Revolving Note contains any blanks when executed
by the  Borrowers,  the  Lender  is  hereby  authorized,  without  notice to the
Borrowers,  to complete  any such blanks  according  to the terms upon which the
Revolving  Loan  or  Revolving  Loans  were  granted.  Wherever  possible,  each
provision of this  Revolving  Note shall be  interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Revolving
Note shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such  provision  shall
be  severable,  and  be  ineffective  to  the  extent  of  such  prohibition  or
invalidity,  without  invalidating  the remaining  provisions of this  Revolving
Note.

         To induce  the Lender to make the  Revolving  Loans  evidenced  by this
Revolving  Note, the Borrowers (i)  irrevocably  agree that all actions  arising
directly or  indirectly as a result or in  consequence  of this  Revolving  Note
shall be instituted and litigated only in courts having situs in the City of New
York,  New  York;  provided,  that  Lender  may elect to  commence  an action or
proceeding with respect to the Collateral in another  jurisdiction,  (ii) hereby
consent to the  exclusive  jurisdiction  and venue of any State or Federal Court
located and having its situs in said city,  and (iii) waive any objection  based
on forum non-conveniens.  IN ADDITION,  THE BORROWERS HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY ACTION OR  PROCEEDING  WHICH  PERTAINS  DIRECTLY  OR  INDIRECTLY  TO THIS
REVOLVING NOTE, THE LIABILITIES, THE COLLATERAL, ANY ALLEGED TORTIOUS CONDUCT BY
ANY BORROWER OR THE LENDER OR WHICH IN ANY WAY,  DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY,  ARISES
OUT OF OR RELATES TO THE  RELATIONSHIP  BETWEEN  THE  BORROWERS  AND THE LENDER,
waive personal service of any and all process, and consent that all such service
of process may be made by certified mail, return receipt requested,  directed to
the Borrowers at the address indicated in the Lender's  records;  and service so
made shall be complete  five (5) days after the same has been  deposited  in the
U.S. mails as aforesaid.

                                  Exhibit A-2

<PAGE>

         This Note amends,  supersedes and replaces in its entirety that certain
Revolving Note (the "Original Note") in the original principal amount of Fifteen
Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars  ($15,500,000)  dated September
24,  2001,  executed  by the  Borrowers  and payable to the order of the Lender;
provided,  however, that all of the indebtedness  evidenced by the Original Note
continues to be outstanding as of the date hereof,  no cancellation,  adjustment
or novation of such indebtedness  shall be deemed to have occurred on account of
the amendment and  restatement  of the Original Note pursuant to this Note,  and
the Borrowers'  execution and delivery of this Note shall  constitute an express
acknowledgment and confirmation of, and agreement with, the foregoing.

         IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  each of the Borrowers has executed this Revolving
Note on the date first above set forth.

outstanding  and unpaid on the Maturity Date, all as more fully set forth in the

time to time, the "Loan Agreement") by and among the Borrowers,  DHB Industries,
Inc.,  as  Guarantor,  the DHB  Subsidiaries  and the  Lender.  Terms  which are

         The Borrowers  hereby authorize the Lender to charge any account of the
