                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, contemporaneously herewith the Borrower and the Lender have

Borrower a line of credit loan (the "Loan"), in a maximum aggregate principal
amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $40,000,000 from time to time prior
to the Commitment Termination Date; and

         WHEREAS, the proceeds will be used from time to time for working

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Advances made would exceed the Commitment Amount or (b) with respect to an
Approved Project, the aggregate Project Equity Advance then outstanding with
respect to such Project would exceed the Project Advance Limit for such Project
or (c) with respect to any Project, the aggregate Project Equity Advance made
with respect to such Project (whether or not all or any portion of such Project
Equity Advance remains outstanding) would exceed the Total Equity for such
Project. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the
Lender shall not be obligated to advance additional funds with respect to a
Project if a Subpartnership shall default (after notice and expiration of cure
periods) under the Project Loan Documents, (ii) the Lender shall not be
obligated to advance additional funds in excess of the aggregate Commitments
pursuant to Approved Project Plans if there is an Incapacity of Frampton (as
defined in the Partnership Agreement), (iii) the Lender shall not be obligated
to advance additional funds if there is an Event of Default (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) that occurs under the Partnership Agreement and that
remains uncured and (iv) the Lender shall not be obligated to advance more than
20% of the Commitment with respect to a Project until the earlier of that point
in time when (A) the Subpartnership with respect to such Project has entered
into a binding contract for the purchase of real property in connection with the
Project or (B) a Project Loan Commitment has been received from a Project Lender
with respect to the Project.

         Section 2.2 Advance Procedure. Prior to the Commitment Termination
Date, the Borrower may from time to time request that an Advance be made. Each
Advance following the Initial Advance shall be in an amount that is equal to the
lesser of (a) the amount of the Commitment Amount not outstanding, or (b) the
allowable Project Equity Advance for the applicable Project. The request shall
be made by delivering a Application for Advance to the Lender not less than
fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the date upon which such Advance is to be
made and, if all such conditions precedent to such Advance have been satisfied,
the Lender shall make such Advance directly to the Borrower by wire transfer to
the accounts the Borrower shall have specified in its Application for Advance.

note (the "Note") payable to the order of the Lender in the maximum principal

other than a Tax Distribution, make a mandatory payment of the Loan in an amount
equal to such Distribution less an amount that the Lender may approve in its
reasonable discretion for unpaid expenses and payables that the Borrower has
incurred in the ordinary course of business and a reasonable reserve for future
expenses and (b) the Borrower's receipt of any payments on an Emergency Loan,
make a mandatory payment of the Loan in an amount equal to the payments received

to distribute all net cash flow (other than tax distributions) to its members

distribute all net cash flow (other than tax distributions and amounts
established as reserves) to its partners (including the Borrower).

make the distributions described in the preceding sentence and such failure is
continuing.

amount of the Loan shall accrue and be payable in accordance with this Section
3.2.

outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue interest at the rate (the
"Interest Rate") of 11.5%, compounded annually.

                  Section 3.2.2 Post-Maturity Rates. Upon and after an Event of
Default, the Loan shall accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance of
the Loan and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on the unpaid interest,
at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate plus an additional 5.0% per annum
(the "Default Rate"); provided in no event shall the Default Rate exceed the
maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law.

                  Section 3.2.3 Accrual. At the end of each calendar year during
the term hereof, all interest that has accrued but has not been paid during such
calendar year shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan
and shall, thereafter, bear interest, prior to an Event of Default, at the
Interest Rate.

Instruments requiring the contribution from time to time of, in the aggregate,

capital upon demand of the Board of Directors of Borrower as described below.

         Prior to the Initial Advance, the Borrower will, through its Board of
Directors, make written demand upon each Subscriber to contribute to the
Borrower cash in an amount equal to the product realized by multiplying (i) One
Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of shares of the Borrower's common stock that Subscriber
owns as of the date of such demand and the denominator of which is the number of
outstanding shares of the Borrower's common stock as of the date of such demand
("Initial Equity Shortfall Share"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

to the Borrower in an amount equal to such Subscriber's Initial Equity Shortfall
Share.

Determination at that point in time when the aggregate of the accrued but unpaid

No/100 Dollars ($4,000,000) unless and until each Subscriber has contributed
cash to the Borrower in an amount equal to such Subscriber's Secondary Equity
Shortfall Share.

written demand upon each Subscriber to contribute to the Borrower cash in an
amount equal to the product realized by multiplying (i) One Million and No/100
Dollars ($1,000,000) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
shares of the Borrower's common stock that Subscriber owns as of the date of the
Assessment Determination and the denominator of which



                                       11

is the number of outstanding shares of the Borrower's common stock as of the
date of the Assessment Determination ("Third Equity Shortfall Share").
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no
additional Advance will be made to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that
would increase the aggregate unpaid principal and interest on the Loan above

requested Advance were made. In such event, the Borrower's Board of Directors
shall make written demand upon each Subscriber to contribute to the Borrower
cash in an amount equal to the product realized by multiplying (i) One Million

the Assessment Determination ("Fourth Equity Shortfall Share"). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no additional Advance will
be made to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that would increase the

cash to the Borrower in an amount equal to such Subscriber's Fourth Equity
Shortfall Share.

interest and the unpaid principal balance of the Loan first equals Sixteen
Million and No/100 Dollars ($16,000,000) or would exceed such amount if a
requested Advance were made. In such event, the Borrower's Board of Directors
shall make written demand upon each Subscriber to contribute to the Borrower
cash in an amount equal to the product realized by multiplying (i) One Million
and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is

be made to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that would increase the

                               LINE OF CREDIT NOTE


$40,000,000                                                      January 1, 1999

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CRESCENT DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware
corporation ("Borrower") promises to pay to CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership ("Lender"), at 777 Main
Street, Suite 2700, Fort Worth, Texas 76102, the principal sum of FORTY MILLION
AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($40,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced, with
interest on the principal balance from time to time remaining unpaid at the
rates hereinafter provided.

         Interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time remaining
unpaid prior to an Event of Default shall be payable at the Interest Rate
prescribed in the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), provided that the
interest payable shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law
(the "Maximum Rate"). Interest on the principal hereof from time to time
remaining unpaid and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest on the
unpaid interest, shall bear interest from and after an Event of Default at the
Default Rate provided that in no event shall the Default Rate be more than the
Maximum Rate.

         This Note is the "Note" referred to in the Credit Agreement dated
January 1, 1999, executed by Lender and Borrower (the "Credit Agreement").
Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under this Note as permitted by
the Credit Agreement. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise
defined herein are used herein with the meanings given those terms in the Credit
Agreement.

         Borrower may request and receive Advances hereunder only in accordance
with the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement. This Note shall be
payable as provided in Article III of the Credit Agreement.

         Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (after the giving of any
notice required in the Credit Agreement and the expiration of any applicable
grace periods provided for in the Credit Agreement), all amounts then remaining
unpaid on this Note shall become or may be declared to be immediately due and
payable and the holder hereof shall have all rights and remedies of Lender under
the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents. The failure to exercise the
option to accelerate the maturity of this Note upon the happening of any one or
more of the Events of Default hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the
right of the holder of this Note to exercise the same or any other option at
that time or at any subsequent time with respect to such uncured default or any
other event of uncured default hereunder or under any other of the Loan
Documents. The remedies of the holder hereof, as provided in this Note and in
any other of the Loan Documents, shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be
pursued separately, successively or together, as often as occasion therefor
shall arise, at the sole discretion of the holder hereof. The acceptance by the
holder hereof of any payment under this Note which is less than payment in full
of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not constitute
a waiver of or impair, reduce, release or extinguish any of the rights or
remedies of the holder hereof to exercise the foregoing option or any other
option granted to the holder in this Note or in any other of the Loan Documents,
at that time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any
such option.

         The undersigned and all other parties now or hereafter liable for the
payment hereof, whether as endorser, surety or otherwise, except as provided in
the Credit Agreement, severally waive demand, presentment, notice of dishonor,
notice of intention to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby, notice of
the acceleration of the maturity hereof, diligence in collecting, grace, notice
and protest, and consent to all extensions which from time to time may be
granted by the holder hereof and to all partial payments hereon, whether before
or after maturity.

         If this Note is not paid when due, whether at maturity or by
acceleration, or if it is collected through a bankruptcy, probate or other
court, whether before or after maturity, the undersigned agrees to pay all costs
of collection, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses incurred by the holder hereof.

         All agreements between the undersigned and the holder hereof, whether
now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby
limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the
maturity 


<PAGE>   31


hereof or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged, received, paid
or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof exceed the maximum amount permissible
under applicable law. If from any circumstance the holder hereof shall ever
receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the
maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the principal hereof and not to the payment of
interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal
hereof, such excess shall be refunded to the undersigned. All interest paid or
agreed to be paid to the holder hereof shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the
full period until payment in full of the principal so that the interest hereon
for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable
law. This paragraph shall control all agreements between the undersigned and the
holder hereof.

         This Note may be prepaid only in accordance with the terms of the
Credit Agreement.

         The loan transaction evidenced hereby shall not be governed by, or be
subject to, Chapter 15 or Chapter 346 of the Texas Credit Code or Chapter 303 of
the Texas Finance Code.

         EXCEPT WHERE FEDERAL LAW IS APPLICABLE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ANY FEDERAL USURY CEILING OR OTHER FEDERAL LAW WHICH, FROM TIME TO TIME, IS
APPLICABLE TO THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED HEREIN AND WHICH PREEMPTS STATE USURY
LAWS), THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
TEXAS AND THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES APPLICABLE TO TRANSACTIONS IN SUCH
STATE.

LOAN DOCUMENT REFERENCED HEREIN OR THEREIN, REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENTS
BETWEEN THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY
EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

E.       DEBTOR'S WARRANTIES

         Debtor represents, warrants, and covenants to Secured Party now and so
long as any Obligations secured hereby are outstanding as follows:

         1. No financing statement covering any portion of the Collateral is on
file in any public office, except the financing statements relating to this
security interest created hereunder.

         2. Debtor is the sole owner of the Collateral and each item
constituting the Collateral, free and clear of all liens except for the security
interest granted to Secured Party pursuant to this Security Agreement.

         3. All actions necessary or desirable to perfect the Security Interest
in the Collateral in each state in which any portion of the Collateral is or
will be located have been, or will forthwith be, duly taken.

         4. Each of the Partnership Agreements and the Resorts Operating
Agreement is in full force and effect and, to the knowledge of Debtor, there
exists no material default thereunder, or event or condition which, with the
passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a material
default thereunder.

         5. Neither any Partnership Agreement nor the Resorts Operating
Agreement will be amended or modified in any manner that would materially affect
Debtor's interest thereunder, or in any manner which would materially impair or
adversely affect the Collateral, nor shall Debtor consent to any such amendment
without the prior written consent of Secured Party.

         6. There is no condition, circumstance, event, agreement, document,
instrument, restriction, litigation or other proceeding and, to the best of
Debtor's knowledge, there is no threatened litigation or proceeding or basis
therefor, which could materially adversely affect the validity or priority of
the liens and security interests granted, or intended to be granted, hereunder
when executed, delivered, recorded and filed as required hereunder, or that
could materially adversely affect the ability of Debtor to perform its
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which Debtor is a
party, or which would constitute an Event of Default.

         7. Each Subpartnership, Resorts and Debtor have fully complied with all
requirements imposed on them in connection with (a) the organization and
formation of such Subpartnership or Resorts, as applicable, and (b) the sale,
distribution and offer of partnership interests in such Subpartnership and
membership interests in Resorts.


F.       DEBTOR'S COVENANTS

         Debtor covenants to Secured Party and agrees with Secured Party as
follows:

         1. Debtor shall promptly perform all of Debtor's agreements herein, and
any other agreements between Debtor and Secured Party.

         2. Debtor shall defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of
all persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein adverse to
Secured Party.

         3. Debtor shall keep the Collateral free from liens and other security
interests (except liens for taxes not yet due), and shall not create or suffer
to exist any lien or security interest in the Collateral hereafter acquired
except for the security interests hereby granted. Debtor shall not file, or
permit to be filed, any financing statements or other security instruments,
covering the Collateral, unless by, or on behalf of, Secured Party in connection
with this Security Agreement or to effectuate the assignment to Debtor of the
financing statements currently of record against the Collateral.

         4. Debtor shall pay all costs necessary to obtain, preserve, perfect,
defend and enforce the security interests hereby granted, collect the sums owing
under the Collateral Loan Documents, and preserve, defend, enforce, service and
collect the Collateral, including specifically, but without limitation, the
payment of taxes, assessments, reasonable attorneys' fees and legal

expenses, and expenses of sales. If Debtor shall have failed to pay such costs
and expenses within five (5) days after request by Secured Party, Secured Party
may, at its option, pay any such costs and expenses, and discharge encumbrances
on the Collateral. Debtor agrees to reimburse the Secured Party on demand for
any costs so incurred, and, until such reimbursement, the amount of any such
payment shall be a part of the Obligation.

         5. Prior to or immediately following the occurrence thereof, Debtor
will notify the Secured Party of (i) any material adverse change occurring in or
to any of the Collateral, (ii) any change in Debtor's office address or mailing
address, (iii) any material change in any fact or circumstance warranted or
represented by Debtor in this Security Agreement or furnished to the Secured
Party by Debtor, (iv) any Event of Default or (v) any notices, communications,
or correspondence to be or which have been delivered to Debtor under the
Partnership Agreement and deliver to Secured Party copies thereof.

         6. Debtor shall execute and deliver to Secured Party a financing
statement for filing to perfect the security interests hereunder and any other
papers furnished by Secured Party which are necessary in the judgment of Secured
Party to obtain, maintain and perfect the security interest hereunder and to
enable Secured Party to comply with any applicable federal or state law in order
to obtain or perfect Secured Party's interest in the Collateral. Debtor shall
have each Subpartnership and Resorts make appropriate entries in its partnership
or membership records to reflect the existence of the security interest granted
hereby in the Collateral.

         7. Debtor shall cause Subpartnerships and Resorts to comply with all of
the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, indemnities and terms
contained in the Subpartnerships' Organizational Documents and Resorts'
Organizational Documents and all other material agreements to which the
Subpartnerships and Resorts, or any of them, is bound and to enforce rights of
Subpartnerships and Resorts under all material agreements by which any of them
is bound, in a timely manner, consistent with prudent practices and all
applicable laws, and also as required by Secured Party.

         8. Debtor shall fully perform all of Debtor's duties under and in
connection with each transaction to which the Collateral, or any part thereof,
relates, so that the amounts thereof shall actually become payable in their
entirety to Secured Party.

         9. Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party of any claim, action, or
proceeding affecting title to all or any of the Collateral or the security
interest and, at the request of Secured Party, appear in and defend, at Debtor's
expense, any such claim, action, demand or proceeding.

         10. At Debtor's expense and upon Secured Party's request, after an
Event of Default, Debtor shall file or cause to be filed such applications and
take such other actions as Secured Party may request to obtain the consent or
approval of any governmental authority to Secured Party's rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, the right to sell all of the Collateral upon an
Event of Default without additional consent or approval from such governmental
authority (and, because Debtor agrees that Secured Party's remedies at law for
failure of Debtor to comply with this provision would be inadequate and that
such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, Debtor agrees that
its covenants in this provision may be specifically enforced).

         11. Upon demand by Secured Party, Debtor will deposit upon receipt all
checks, drafts, cash or other remittances on account or accounts or contracts or
received as proceeds of any other Collateral in a special bank account in a bank
of Secured Party's choice over which Secured Party alone shall have power of
withdrawal. The funds in said account shall be held by Secured Party as security
for the Obligation. Said proceeds shall be deposited in the form received,
except for the endorsement of Debtor where necessary to permit collection of
items, which endorsements Debtor agrees to make, but which Secured Party is
authorized to make on Debtor's behalf. Secured Party may from time to time apply
the whole or any part of the funds in such special account against the
Obligations. Any portion of said funds on deposit which Secured Party elects not
to apply to the Obligations may be paid by Secured Party to Debtor.

         12. Debtor shall give Secured Party written notice of each office of
Debtor in which records of Debtor pertaining to accounts in the Collateral are
kept, and of any change of any office or location. Except as such notice is
given, all records of Debtor pertaining to the Collateral and to accounts are
and shall be kept in the location shown at the beginning hereof.

G.       RIGHTS AND POWERS OF SECURED PARTY

         1. Secured Party may in its discretion after an Event of Default but
only after prior written notice to Debtor, without liability to Debtor, obtain
from any person information regarding Debtor or Debtor's business, which
information any such person 


                                       4
<PAGE>   36

also may furnish without liability to Debtor; endorse as Debtor's agent any
instruments, documents or chattel paper in the Collateral or representing
proceeds of the Collateral; contact any account debtors directly to verify
information furnished by Debtor; take control of proceeds; release the
Collateral in its possession to any Debtor, temporarily or otherwise; after
default, take control of funds generated by the Collateral, such as cash
dividends, interest and proceeds or refunds from insurance, and use same to
reduce any part of the Obligations and exercise all other rights which an owner
of such collateral may exercise; after default, at any time transfer any of the
Collateral or evidence thereof into its own name or that of its nominee; demand,
collect, convert, redeem, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for,
foreclose or realize upon the Collateral, in its own name or in the name of
Debtor, as Secured Party may determine. The foregoing rights and powers of
Secured Party will be in addition to, and not a limitation upon, any rights and
powers of Secured Party given by law, elsewhere in this agreement, or otherwise.

         2. Secured Party may while any Event of Default continues hereunder
present for conversion any instrument (including any investment security) in the
Collateral which is convertible into any other instrument or investment security
or a combination thereof with cash. But Secured Party shall not have any duty to
present for conversion any instrument in the Collateral unless it shall have
received from Debtor written instructions to that effect at a time reasonably
far in advance of the final conversion date to make such conversion possible.

H.       DEFAULT

         1. Events of Default. The occurrence of a default under the Note, the
Credit Agreement or any document evidencing, governing, securing, guaranteeing,
indemnifying or otherwise pertaining to the Loan shall constitute an event of
default ("Event of Default") hereunder.

         2. Remedies of Secured Party Upon Default. Should an Event of Default
occur and be continuing, Secured Party may, at its election, exercise any and
all rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC, in addition
to any and all other rights and remedies afforded by the Loan Documents, at law,
in equity, or otherwise, including, without limitation, such rights and remedies
as (a) Party, (b) applying by appropriate judicial proceedings for appointment
of a receiver for all or part of the Collateral (and Debtor hereby consents to
any such appointment), and (c) applying to the Obligation any cash held by
Secured Party under this Security Agreement. The exercise of one or more rights
or remedies by Secured Party hereunder shall not prejudice or impair the
concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other rights or remedies by Secured
Party. If, in the opinion of Secured Party, there is any question that a public
or semipublic sale or distribution of any Collateral will violate any state or
federal securities law, Secured Party in its discretion (a) may offer and sell
securities privately to purchasers who will agree to take them for investment
purposes and not with a view to distribution and who will agree to imposition of
restrictive legends on the certificates representing the security, or (b) may
sell such securities in an intrastate offering under Section 3(a)(11) of the
Securities Act of 1933, and no sale so made in good faith by Secured Party shall
be deemed to be not "commercially reasonable" because so made.

                  a. Notice. Reasonable notification of the time and place of
         any public sale of the Collateral, or reasonable notification of the
         time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of the
         Collateral is to be made, shall be sent to Debtor and to any other
         Person entitled to notice under the UCC. It is agreed that notice sent
         or given not less than twenty (20) business days prior to the taking of
         the action to which the notice relates is reasonable notification and
         notice for the purposes of this subparagraph.

                  b. Application of Proceeds. Secured Party shall apply the
         proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral under this
         paragraph in the following order: first, to the payment of all its
         expenses incurred in retaking, holding, and preparing any of the
         Collateral for sale(s) or other disposition, in arranging for such
         sale(s) or other disposition, and in actually selling or disposing of
         the same (all of which are part of the Obligation); second, toward
         repayment of amounts expended by Secured Party under Paragraph I.3; and
         third, toward payment of the balance of the Obligation in accordance
         with the Credit Agreement. If the proceeds are insufficient to pay the
         Obligation in full, Debtor shall remain liable for any deficiency to
         the extent provided in the Credit Agreement.

         3.       Other Rights of Secured Party.

                  a. Performance. In the event Debtor shall fail to pay when due
         all taxes, subject to contest rights permitted by the Credit Agreement,
         on any of the Collateral, or to preserve the priority of the Security
         Interest in any of the Collateral, or otherwise fail to perform any of
         its obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to the
         Collateral, then Secured Party may, at its option, but without being
         required to do so, pay such taxes, prosecute or defend any suits in
         relation to the 



                                       5
<PAGE>   37

         Collateral, or insure and keep insured the Collateral in any amount
         deemed appropriate by Secured Party, or take all other action which
         Debtor is required, but has failed or refused, to take under the Loan
         Documents. Any sum which may be expended or paid by Secured Party
         under this subparagraph (including, without limitation, court costs
         and attorneys' fees) shall bear interest from the dates of expenditure
         or payment at the Default Rate (as defined in the Note) until paid
         and, together with such interest, shall be payable by Debtor to
         Secured Party upon demand and shall be part of the Obligation.

                  b. Collection. After the occurrence of an Event of Default and
         during the continuation thereof, upon notice from Secured Party, each
         obligor with respect to any payments on any of the Collateral
         (including without limitation condemnation proceeds, dividends and
         other distributions with respect to securities, and insurance proceeds
         payable by reason of loss or damage to any of the Collateral Property)
         is hereby authorized and directed by Debtor to make payment directly to
         Secured Party, regardless of whether Debtor was previously making
         collections thereon. Subject to Subparagraph I.3(d) hereof, until such
         notice is given, Debtor is authorized to retain and expend all payments
         made on the Collateral. After the occurrence of an Event of Default and
         during the continuation thereof, Secured Party shall have the right in
         its own name or in the name of Debtor to compromise or extend the time
         of payment with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral for
         such amounts and upon such terms as Secured Party may determine; to
         demand, collect, receive, receipt for, sue for, compound, settle,
         compromise, adjust, realize upon and give acquittances for any and all
         amounts due or to become due with respect to Collateral; to file any
         claims or take any action or initiate any proceedings which Secured
         Party may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the
         Collateral or to otherwise enforce the rights or remedies of Debtor
         with respect to any Collateral; to take control of cash and other
         Proceeds of any Collateral; to endorse the name of Debtor on any notes,
         acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders, or other evidences of
         payment on Collateral that may come into the possession of Secured
         Party; to sign the name of Debtor on any drafts against obligors or
         other Persons making payment with respect to Collateral, on assignments
         and verifications of accounts or other Collateral and on notices to
         obligors making payment with respect to Collateral; to send requests
         for verification of obligations to any such obligor; to take any action
         Debtor is required to take or any other necessary action to obtain,
         preserve, and enforce this Security Agreement, and maintain, preserve
         and collect the Collateral, without notice to Debtor, and add the costs
         of same to the Obligation; to release Collateral in Secured Party's
         possession to any Person, temporarily or otherwise; to set standards
         from time to time to govern what may be deemed after-acquired
         Collateral; to transfer any of the Collateral, or evidence thereof,
         into its own name or that of its nominee and receive the Proceeds
         therefrom and hold the same as security for the Obligation, or apply
         the same thereon; to exercise as to the Collateral all the rights of
         the owner thereof; and to do all other acts and things necessary to
         carry out the intent of this Security Agreement. If any obligor fails
         or refuses to make payment on any Collateral when due, Secured Party is
         authorized, in its sole discretion, either in its own name or in the
         name of Debtor, to take such action as Secured Party shall deem
         appropriate for the collection of any amounts owed with respect to the
         Collateral or upon which a delinquency exists. Regardless of any other
         provision hereof, however, Secured Party shall never be liable for its
         failure to collect, or for its failure to exercise diligence in the
         collection of, any amounts owed with respect to Collateral, nor shall
         it be under any duty whatever to anyone except Debtor to account for
         funds that it shall actually receive hereunder. Without limiting the
         generality of the foregoing, Secured Party shall have no responsibility
         for ascertaining any maturities, calls, conversions, exchanges, offers,
         tenders, or similar matters relating to any Collateral, or for
         informing Debtor with respect to any of such matters (irrespective of
         whether Secured Party actually has, or may be deemed to have, knowledge
         thereof). The receipt of Secured Party to any obligor shall be a full
         and complete release, discharge, and acquittance to such obligor, to
         the extent of any amount so paid to Secured Party.

                  c. Certain Proceeds. After the occurrence and during the
         continuance of an Event of Default, any cash Proceeds of Collateral
         which come into the possession of Secured Party (including, without
         limitation, insurance and condemnation proceeds) may, at Secured
         Party's option, be applied in whole or in part to the Obligation, be
         released in whole or in part to or on the written instructions of
         Debtor for any general or specific purpose, or be retained in whole or
         in part by Secured Party as additional Collateral. Any cash Collateral
         in the possession of Secured Party may be invested by Secured Party but
         Secured Party shall never be obligated to make any such investment and
         shall never have any liability to Debtor for any loss which may result
         therefrom. All interest and other amounts earned from any investment
         of Collateral may be dealt with by Secured Party in the same manner as
         other cash Collateral.

                  d. Use and Operation of Collateral. Should any Collateral come
         into the possession of Secured Party, Secured Party may use or operate
         such Collateral for the purpose of preserving it or its value pursuant
         to the order of a court of appropriate jurisdiction or in accordance
         with any other rights held by Secured Party with respect to such
         Collateral. Debtor covenants promptly to reimburse and pay to Secured
         Party, at Secured Party's request, the amount of all reasonable
         expenses (including, without limitation, the cost of any insurance and
         payment of taxes or other charges) incurred by Secured Party in
         connection with its custody and preservation of Collateral, and all
         such expenses, costs, taxes, and other charges shall bear 



                                       6
<PAGE>   38

         interest at the Maximum Rate (as defined in the Note) until repaid
         and, together with such interest, shall be payable by Debtor to
         Secured Party upon demand and shall become part of the Obligation.
         However, the risk of accidental loss or damage to, or diminution in
         value of, Collateral is on Debtor, and Secured Party shall have no
         liability whatever for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, nor to
         determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount
         or as to the risks insured. With respect to Collateral that is in the
         possession of Secured Party, Secured Party shall have no duty to fix
         or preserve rights against prior parties to such Collateral and shall
         never be liable for any failure to use diligence to collect any amount
         payable in respect of such Collateral, but shall be liable only to
         account to Debtor for what it may actually collect or receive thereon.
         The provisions of this subparagraph shall be applicable whether or not
         an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                  e. Diminution in Value of Collateral. Secured Party shall have
         no liability or responsibility whatsoever for any diminution in or loss
         of value of any Collateral.

I.       MULTIPLE COUNTERPARTS

         This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall be deemed but one and the
same instrument.

J.       GENERAL

         1. Waiver. No delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any
power or right shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any power or right preclude other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No waiver by Secured Party
of any right hereunder or of any default by Debtor shall be binding upon Secured
Party unless in writing, and no failure by Secured Party to exercise any power
or right hereunder or waiver of any default by Debtor shall operate as a waiver
of any other or further exercise of such right or power or of any further
default.

         2. Parties Bound. The rights of Secured Party hereunder shall inure to
the benefit of its successors and assigns. The terms of this Security Agreement
shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties. All
representations, warranties and agreements of Debtor are joint and several if
Debtor is more than one and shall bind Debtor's personal representatives, heirs,
successors and assigns.

         3. Definitions. Unless the context indicates otherwise, definitions in
the UCC apply to words and phrases in this Security Agreement; if UCC
definitions conflict, Chapter 9 definitions apply.

         4. Notice. Notice shall be deemed reasonable if mailed postage prepaid
at least ten (10) days before the related action (or if the UCC elsewhere
specifies a longer period, such longer period) to Debtor's address given above.

         5. Expenses. Debtor agrees to reimburse Secured Party's out-of-pocket
expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in negotiating,
administering or enforcing any part of the Obligations, and in preparation,
execution, delivery and recording of any documents in connection with any part
of the Obligations, when not contrary to law.

         6. Limitation on Interest. All agreements between Debtor and Secured
Party, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral,
are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of
demand or acceleration of the indebtedness secured hereby or otherwise, shall
the interest contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to
Secured Party exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If,
from any circumstance whatsoever interest would otherwise be payable to the
holder hereof in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to
Secured Party shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable
law; and if from any such circumstance Secured Party shall ever receive anything
of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful
amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the
reduction of the principal amount owing on the indebtedness secured hereby and
not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds such
unpaid balance of the principal, such excess shall be refunded to the
undersigned. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Secured Party on the
indebtedness secured hereby shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be
amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such
indebtedness (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) until
payment in full so that the interest on account of such indebtedness shall not
exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. The terms and provisions
of this paragraph shall control all agreements between Debtor and Secured Party.

<PAGE>   39

         7. Modifications. No provision hereof shall be modified or limited
except by a written agreement expressly referring hereto and to the provision so
modified or limited and signed by the Debtor and Secured Party, nor by course of
conduct, usage of trade, or by the law merchant.

         8. Severability. The unenforceability of any provision of this Security
Agreement shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other
provision.

         9. Gender and Number. Where appropriate, the use of one gender shall be
construed to include the others or any of them; and the singular number shall be
construed to include the plural, and vice versa.

         10. Applicable Law and Venue. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE
CONSTRUED ACCORDING TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS.

         11. Financing Statement. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction
of this Security Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral
shall be sufficient as a financing statement.
