any account of Borrower (other than a payroll account) at Lender.

                  2.5.     Evidence of Borrower's Obligations. Borrower's
obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Advances made to
Borrower shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note executed by Borrower and
delivered to Lender.

                  2.6.     Payment on Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loans,
plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and other amounts
payable under this Agreement and the Loan Documents, shall be due and payable in
full, on the Termination Date.

                  2.A      Letters of Credit. At the request of Borrower or a
Guarantor, and upon execution of Lender's customary Letter of Credit
documentation, Lender shall issue Letter(s) of Credit on behalf of Borrower or a
Guarantor. The Letters of Credit shall be on terms mutually acceptable to Lender
and Borrower or the Guarantor, as the case may be, and no Letter of Credit shall
have an expiration date later than ninety (90) days after the Termination Date
and shall not contain an evergreen clause or any other automatic renewal
provision. Any drawing under the Letter of Credit shall be deemed an Advance
made to Borrower, without request therefore, immediately upon payment on any
such draft or drawing. In connection with the issuance of a Letter of Credit,
Borrower shall pay to Lender an issuance fee of $275.00 and a wire fee of
$35.00. In addition, Lender shall charge Borrower its standard discrepancy fees
as they may vary from time to time. If there is any dispute between the
beneficiary and Borrower or the Guarantor regarding the terms and conditions of

                                       10
<PAGE>

any Letter of Credit or the issuance or the payment of any drawing(s) under any
such Letter of Credit, any such dispute shall be solely between the beneficiary
and Borrower and/or the Guarantor and Borrower shall be obligated to pay to
Lender any and all amounts paid by Lender, in the absence of Lender's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, to the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit
without any defense, counterclaim or set-off, all of which are expressly waived.

                  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for so
long as no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing, Lender shall issue
Letters of Credit in its discretion at the request of Borrower or a Guarantor
having an aggregate outstanding face amount equal to the lesser of (a) the
Maximum Facility or (b) the amount calculated in accordance with Subsection
2.1(b). The sum calculated in accordance with clause (b) of the immediately
preceding sentence shall be reduced by the outstanding principal balance of all
Revolving Loans as they may vary from time to time.

                  Lender has previously issued Letters of Credit for the account
of Borrower and/or Guarantors. These Letters of Credit shall be considered
issued under and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and shall be subject to all of the benefits of and secured by the Collateral
described in the General Security Agreement and the various Guaranty and
Security Agreements.

                  2.B.     Fleet Indemnity.
                           ---------------

                  At the request of Borrower, Lender has executed and indemnity
letter in favor of Fleet National Bank as set forth on Exhibit F hereto. Such
indemnity letter indemnifies Fleet National Bank in connection with letters of
credit issued on behalf of Borrower or its Affiliates. Pursuant to such
indemnity letter, Lender is obligated to indemnify and reimburse Fleet National
Bank for claims arising out of such letters of credit. Lender's obligations in
connection with such indemnity letter shall be considered an Obligation or
Obligations under this Agreement. So long as the indemnity letter is in effect,
the maximum amount of Lender's liability to Fleet National Bank thereunder shall
reduce the amount of funds the Borrower may obtain under Section 2 hereof. If
there is any dispute between Fleet National Bank and Borrower and/or Lender
arising out of any such letter of credit (including, without limitation, any
drawing under any such letter of credit), any such dispute shall be solely the
Borrower's responsibility, and Borrower shall be obligated to pay Lender any and
all amounts paid by Lender to Fleet National Bank without any defense,
counterclaim or setoff, all of which are expressly waived; provided, that the

                                       11
<PAGE>

foregoing shall not be considered a waiver of any defense, counterclaim or
setoff that may be available to Borrower against or in respect of Fleet National
Bank.

         3.       LENDER'S COMPENSATION.
                  ---------------------

                  3.1.     Interest on Advances. Except as provided below,
Borrower shall pay interest monthly, in arrears, on the first day of each month,
commencing January 1, 2003 on the average daily unpaid principal amount of the
Revolving Loan at a fluctuating rate which is equal to the Loan Interest Rate
or, as provided below, the LIBOR rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on and
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower
shall pay interest on the Revolving Loan at a rate which is three (3) percent
per annum above the Prime Rate; provided, however, in no event shall any
interest to be paid under this Agreement or under any Loan Document exceed the
maximum rate permitted by law.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower, at the time of any
Advance, shall be permitted to fix the interest rate payable on such advance for
a period of one, two or three months based on the corresponding LIBOR rate for
such time period plus two hundred fifty (250) basis points. The interest on any
such fixed rate Advance shall be due and payable on the maturity date of such
Advance.

                  3.2.     Field Examination Fees. Borrower shall promptly
reimburse Lender for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses associated
with periodic field examinations as deemed necessary by Lender; provided, that
so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Lender
shall only conduct one such periodic field examination during any twelve (12)
month period; and further, provided, that the total amount of costs and expenses
for which Borrower shall be required to reimburse Lender in any twelve (12)
month period during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $5,000.00 except
the initial field examination in connection with the closing of the Loans.

                  3.3.     Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest and
fees under this Agreement shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of
three hundred sixty (360) days for the number of days actually elapsed.

                  3.4.     Payments. All payments with respect to the
Obligations shall be charged by Lender to Borrower's demand account deposit
maintained with Lender without any defense, offset or counterclaim of any kind.
Whenever any payment to be made shall otherwise be due on a day that is not a

                                       12
<PAGE>

Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day and
such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection
with any such payment. Lender may make an Advance to reimburse itself for any
payments on the Obligations (including fees and expenses payable by Borrower),
which are not paid when due, without notice or demand to Borrower. Any delay or
failure by Lender submitting any invoice for such interest or fee or in the
making of an Advance against the Revolving Loan shall not discharge or relieve
Borrower of its obligation to make such interest or fee payment.

          4.      APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Advances shall be
used solely by Borrower to repay existing indebtedness incurred in connection
therewith, for working capital purposes, and otherwise as permitted by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

         5.       INDUCING REPRESENTATIONS. In order to induce Lender to make
the Loans, Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to
Lender:

                  5.1.     Organization and Qualifications. Borrower is a
corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Borrower's tax identification number is 22-1432053, and its organizational
identification number is 0684419. Borrower is qualified to do business in every
jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires it to be so qualified,
except where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  5.2.     Name and Address. During the preceding five (5)
years, Borrower has not been known by any other corporate or fictitious name,
except as set forth on Schedule 5.2 attached hereto. Borrower's principal office
on the date hereof is at the address set forth above.

                  5.3.     Structure. Borrower has no subsidiaries or Affiliates
on the date hereof, except as set forth on Schedule 5.3 attached hereto.

                  5.4.     Legally Enforceable Agreement. The execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement, each and all of the other Loan
Documents and each and all other instruments and documents to be delivered by
Borrower or the Guarantors under this Agreement and the creation of all liens
and security interests provided for herein are within Borrower's corporate
power, have been duly authorized by all necessary or proper corporate action

                                       13
<PAGE>

(including the consent of shareholders where required), are not in contravention
of any agreement or indenture to which Borrower is a party or by which it is
bound, or of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of Borrower, and are
not in contravention of any provision of law and the same do not require the
consent or approval of any governmental body, agency, authority or any other
Person which has not been obtained and a copy thereof furnished to Lender, other
than agreements that comprise Collateral and that by their respective terms may
not be pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred and which, individually or in
the aggregate, are not material.

                  5.5.     Solvent Financial Condition. Borrower is Solvent.
                           ---------------------------

                  5.6.     Financial Statements. The unqualified audited
financial statements of Borrower as of June 30, 2002, copies of which have been
delivered to Lender, fairly present Borrower's financial condition and results
of operations as relevant and as of such date and there has been no Material
Adverse Effect since such date. Borrower has no contingent liabilities,
liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments, or unrealized
or unanticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments which were required to
be disclosed in such financial statements but which were not disclosed.

                  5.7.     Joint Ventures. On the date hereof, Borrower is not
engaged in any joint venture or partnership with any other Person.

                  5.8.     Real Estate. Attached hereto as Schedule 5.8 is a
list showing all real property owned or leased by Borrower, and if leased, the
correct name and address of the landlord and the date and term of the applicable
lease.

                  5.9.     Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights and Licenses.
Borrower owns or possesses all the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade
names, copyrights and licenses necessary for the present and planned future
conduct of its business and, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, without any
conflict with the rights of others. All such registered patents, registered
trademarks, service marks, trade names, registered copyrights and licenses for
the manufacture or sale of products in the ordinary course of business existing
on the date hereof are listed on Schedule 5.9 attached hereto, if any.

                  5.10.    Existing Business Relationship. To the knowledge of
Borrower, there exists no actual or threatened termination, cancellation or
limitation of, or any adverse modification or change in, the business
relationship of Borrower with any supplier, customer or group of customers which
individually or in the aggregate would have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                       14
<PAGE>

                  5.11.    Investment Company Act: Federal Reserve Board
Regulations. Borrower is not an "investment company", or an "affiliated person"
of, or "promoter" or "principal underwriter" for, an "investment company", as
such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (15
U.S.C. ss.ss. 80(a)(1), et seq.). The making of the Loans under this Agreement
by Lender, the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof by Borrower and
the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not
violate any provision of such Act, or any rule, regulation or order issued by
the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder. Borrower does not own any
margin security as that term is defined in Regulation U of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the proceeds of the Loans made
pursuant to this Agreement will be used only for the purposes contemplated under
this Agreement. None of the proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for
the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security or for the purpose of
reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase
or carry margin security or for any other purpose which might constitute any of
the Loans under this Agreement a "purpose credit" within the meaning of said
Regulation U or Regulations T or X of the Federal Reserve Board. Borrower will
not take, or authorize any agent acting on its behalf to take, any action which
might cause this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered pursuant
hereto to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

                  5.12.    Tax Returns. Borrower and the Guarantors have filed
all tax returns (Federal, state or local) required to be filed and paid all
taxes shown thereon to be due including interest and penalties or has provided
adequate reserves therefor. No assessments have been made against Borrower or
any Guarantor(s), by any taxing authority nor has any penalty or deficiency been
made by any such authority. To the best of Borrower's knowledge, no Federal
income tax return of Borrower or any Guarantor, is being examined on the date
hereof by the Internal Revenue Service nor are the results of any prior
examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any State or local tax authority
being contested on the date hereof by Borrower or any Guarantor.

                  5.13.    Litigation. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.13, no
action or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, is
threatened against Borrower or any Guarantor, at law, in equity or otherwise,
before any court, board, commission, agency or instrumentality of the Federal or
state government or of any municipal government or any agency or subdivision
thereof, or before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, which, in any case,

                                       15
<PAGE>

would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect and
neither Borrower nor any Guarantor, has accepted liability for any such action
or proceeding. There is no proceeding pending before any governmental agency
(Federal, state or local) and, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, no
investigation has been commenced before any such governmental agency the effect
of which, if adversely decided, would, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect.

                  5.14.    Receivables Locations. Annexed hereto as Schedule
5.14 is a list showing all places at which Borrower presently maintains records
relating to Receivables on the date hereof.

                  5.15.    Inventory Locations. Annexed hereto as Schedule 5.15
is a list showing all places where Borrower on the date hereof maintains
Inventory. Such list indicates whether the premises are owned or leased by
Borrower or whether the premises are the premises of a warehouseman or other
third party, and if owned by a third party, the name and address of such third
party.

                  5.16.    Equipment List and Locations. Annexed hereto as
Schedule 5.16 is a list showing the places where Borrower's Equipment is located
on the date hereof. Such list indicates whether such premises are owned or
leased by Borrower or whether the premises are the premises of another third
party, and if leased, the name and address of such third party.

                  5.17.    Title/ Liens. Borrower has good and marketable title
to the Collateral as sole owner thereof. There are no existing liens on any
Property of Borrower, except for (i) liens in favor of Lender, (ii) liens
described in Schedule 5.17 and (iii) liens permitted by Section 9.5.

                  5.18.    Existing Indebtedness. Borrower has no existing
Indebtedness except the Indebtedness described in Schedule 5.18.

                  5.19.    ERISA Matters. The present value of all accrued
vested benefits under any Plan (calculated on the basis of the actuarial
evaluation for the Plan) did not exceed as of the date of the most recent
actuarial evaluation for such Plan the fair market value of the assets of such
Plan allocable to such benefits. Borrower is not aware of any information since
the date of such evaluation which would affect the information contained
therein. Such Plan does not presently have an accumulating funding deficiency,
as that term is defined in Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code
(whether or not waived), no liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (other than required premiums which have become due and payable, all
of which have been paid) has been incurred with respect to the Plan which would

                                       16
<PAGE>

have a Material Adverse Effect, and there has not been any Reportable Event
which presents a risk of termination of the Plan by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation which would have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has not engaged
in any transaction which would subject Borrower to tax, penalty or liability for
prohibited transactions imposed by ERISA or the Code which would have a Material
Adverse Effect.

                  5.20.    O.S.H.A. Borrower has duly complied with, and its
facilities, business, leaseholds, Equipment and other property are in compliance
in all respects with, the provisions of the federal Occupational Safety and
Health Act and all rules and regulations thereunder and all similar state and
local Governmental Rules except for failure to comply which would not have a
Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding citations, notices or orders
of non-compliance issued to Borrower or relating to its facilities, business,
leaseholds, Equipment or other property under any such Governmental Rules which
would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  5.21.    Intentionally omitted.
                           ---------------------

                  5.22.    Labor Disputes. There are no pending or, to
Borrower's knowledge, threatened labor disputes which could have a Material
Adverse Effect.

                  5.23.    Location of Bank and Securities Accounts. Annexed
hereto as Schedule 5.23 hereto sets forth a complete and accurate list of all
deposit, checking and other bank accounts, all securities and other accounts
maintained with any broker dealer and all other similar accounts maintained by
Borrower on the date hereof (collectively, "Bank Accounts"), together with a
description thereof.

                  5.24.    Compliance With Laws. Borrower is in compliance with
all Federal, state and local governmental rules, ordinances and regulations
("Governmental Rules") applicable to its ownership or use of properties or the
conduct of its business except where the failure to comply would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  5.25.    No Other Violations. Borrower is not in violation of
any term of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws and no event or
condition has occurred or is continuing which constitutes or results in (or
would constitute or result in, with the giving of notice, lapse of time or other
condition) (a) a breach of, or a default under, any agreement, undertaking or
instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which it or any of its Property
may be affected, which would have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) the
imposition of any lien on any Property of Borrower.

                                       17
<PAGE>

                  5.26.    Survival of Representations and Warranties. Borrower
covenants, warrants and represents to Lender that all representations and
warranties of Borrower contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan
Documents shall be true in all material respects at the time of Borrower's
execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and Lender's right to
bring an action for breach of any such representation or warranty or to exercise
any remedy under this Agreement based upon the breach of such representation or
warranty shall survive the execution, delivery and acceptance hereof by Lender
and the closing of the transactions described herein or related hereto until the
Obligations are finally and irrevocably paid in full.

         6.       FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION; CERTAIN NOTICES TO
LENDER. So long as Borrower shall have any Obligations to Lender under this
Agreement, Borrower shall deliver to Lender, or shall cause to be delivered to
Lender:

                  6.1.     Borrowing Base Certificate. Monthly (within twenty
(20) days after the end of each month) and contemporaneously with each request
for an Advance, a completed and executed Borrowing Base Certificate.

                  6.2.     Monthly Reports. Within twenty (20) days after the
end of each month, an accounts receivable aging, an inventory, designation
statement and a corporate daybook summary of sales and backlog, all in form
approved by Lender, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, prepared
by Borrower together with a compliance certificate in the form of Exhibit D
attached hereto; provided, that the inventory designation statement only shall
not be required for the last month of a quarter for which a physical inventory
required by Section 6.4 shall be required.

                  6.3.     Annual Financial Statements. Within one hundred fifty
(150) days after the close of each Fiscal Year of Borrower, a complete copy of

                  6.4.     Quarterly Inventory Report. Within thirty (30) days

<PAGE>

                  6.5.     Insurance. Annually, within thirty (30) days of the
renewal date of such insurance policy, evidence of insurance in form and content

                  6.6.     Notice of Event of Default and Adverse Business
Developments. Promptly after becoming aware of the existence of an Event of
Default including, without limitation, the following:

                           (a)      any dispute that may arise between Borrower
and any governmental regulatory body or law enforcement authority, including any
action relating to any tax liability of Borrower or Guarantor if any which
adversely determined, would have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect;

                           (b)      any labor controversy resulting in or
threatening to result in a strike or work stoppage against Borrower;

                           (c)      any proposal by any public authority to
exercise its eminent domain powers to acquire the assets or business of
Borrower;

                           (d)      the location of any Collateral other than at
Borrower's place of business or as permitted under this Agreement;

                           (e)      any proposed or actual change of Borrower's
name, identity, state of organization or corporate structure; or

                           (f)      any other matter which has resulted or may
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

         In each case, Borrower will provide Lender with telephonic notice
followed by notice in a Record specifying and describing the nature of such
Default, Event of Default or development or information, and such anticipated
effect.

                  6.7.     Other Information. Such other information respecting
the financial condition of Borrower or any Guarantor, or any Property of
Borrower or a Guarantor in which Lender may have a lien as Lender may from time
to time reasonably request.

         7.       ACCOUNTING. Lender may account monthly to Borrower with
respect to the amounts due in connection with the Loans and Letters of Credit.
Each and every account shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon
Borrower in all respects, as to all matters reflected therein, unless Borrower,
within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date the account was rendered,
delivers to Lender notice in a Record of any objections which Borrower may have
to any such account and in that event only those items expressly objected to in

                                       19
<PAGE>

such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. If Borrower disputes the
correctness of any statement, Borrower's notice shall specify in detail the
particulars of its basis for contending that such statement is incorrect.

         8.       AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower represents and warrants that,
so long as it shall have any Obligations to Lender under this Agreement,
Borrower will:

                  8.1.     Business and Existence. Preserve and maintain
Borrower's separate existence and rights, privileges and franchises.

                  8.2.     Trade Names. Transact business in Borrower's own name
other than for the trade names set forth on Schedule 5.9 and invoice all of
Borrower's Receivables in Borrower's own name or the names "Bonnie", "Jaclyn
Apparel", "Aetna", "Banner New York" and/or "Shane" unless Borrower shall have
provided thirty (30) days prior notice in writing to Lender of the use of a new
or additional name.

                  8.3.     Transactions with Affiliates. Whenever Borrower

government charges and levies imposed upon Borrower, Borrower's income or
Borrower's profits or upon any Property belonging to Borrower prior to the date
on which penalties attach thereto, except where the same may be contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings, if necessary, being diligently conducted,
or appropriate reserves therefore have been established. Borrower will pay all
costs to be paid on taxes, assessments or governmental charges levied, assessed,
imposed or payable upon or with respect to the Inventory, Equipment or other
Collateral or any part thereof except where the same may be contested in good
faith, by appropriate proceedings, if necessary, being diligently conducted or
appropriate reserves therefore have been established.

                  8.5.     Compliance with Laws. Comply with all Governmental
Rules applicable to Borrower including, without limitation, all laws and

                  14.4.    Strict Performance. The failure, at any time or times
hereafter, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this
Agreement shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to
demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Any suspension or waiver by
Lender of any Default or Event of Default by Borrower under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or
Event of Default by Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or a
different type.

                  14.5.    Waiver. Borrower waives presentment, protest, notice
of dishonor and notice of protest upon any instrument on which it may be liable
to Lender as maker, endorser, guarantor or otherwise.

                  14.6.    Construction of Agreement. The parties hereto agree
that the terms and language of this Agreement were the result of negotiations
between the parties, and, as a result, there shall be no presumption that any
ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against either party. Any
controversy over the construction of this Agreement shall be decided mutually
without regard to events of authorship or negotiation.

                  14.7.    Expenses. If, at any time or times prior or
subsequent to the date hereof, regardless of whether or not a Default or an
Event of Default then exists or any of the transactions contemplated under this
Agreement are concluded, Lender employs counsel for advice or other
representation, or incurs legal expenses, or consulting fees and expenses, or
other costs or out-of-pocket expenses in connection with: (A) the negotiation
and preparation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any amendment
of or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (B) the
administration of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; (C) periodic audits and appraisals
performed by Lender; (D) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or
action (whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other Person) in any way
relating to the Collateral, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
Borrower's affairs; (E) the perfection of any lien on the Collateral; (F) any
attempt to enforce any rights or remedies of Lender against Borrower or any
other Person which may be obligated to Lender by virtue of this Agreement or any

                                       32
<PAGE>

other Loan Document including, without limitation, the Account Debtors; or (G)
any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, preserve, restore, collect, sell,
liquidate or otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Collateral; then, in any
such event, the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses arising from such
services and all reasonable expenses, costs, charges and other fees of such
counsel of Lender or relating to any of the events or actions described in this
Section 14.7 shall be payable by Borrower to Lender, and shall be additional
Obligations under this Agreement secured by the Collateral. Additionally, if any
taxes (excluding taxes imposed upon or measured by the net income of Lender, but
including any intangibles tax, stamp tax or recording tax) shall be payable on
account of the execution or delivery of this Agreement, or the execution,
delivery, issuance or recording of any other Loan Document, or the creation of
any of the Obligations under this Agreement, by reason of any existing or
hereafter enacted federal or state statute, Borrower will pay (or will promptly
reimburse Lender for the payment of) all such taxes including, but not limited
to, any interest and penalties thereon, and will indemnify, defend and hold
Lender harmless from and against any liability in connection therewith. Borrower
shall also reimburse Lender for all other reasonable expenses incurred by Lender
in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents.

                  14.8.    Reimbursements Charged to Revolving Loan. With
respect to any amount advanced by Lender and required to be reimbursed by
Borrower pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 14.7, it is hereby
agreed that Lender may charge any such amount to Borrowers' Revolving Loan on
the dates such reimbursement is made. Borrower's obligations under Section 14.7
shall survive termination of the other provisions of this Agreement.

                  14.9.    Waiver of Right to Jury Trial.
                           -----------------------------

                           A.       Borrower and Lender recognize that in
matters related to the Loans and this Agreement, and as it may be subsequently
modified and/or amended, any such party may be entitled to a trial in which
matters of fact are determined by a jury (as opposed to a trial in which such
matters are determined by a federal or state judge). By execution of this
Agreement, Lender and Borrower will give up their respective right to a trial by
jury. Borrower and Lender each hereby expressly acknowledge that this waiver is
entered into to avoid delays, minimize trial expenses, and streamline the legal
proceedings in order to accomplish a quick resolution of claims arising under or
in connection with the Note and this Agreement.

<PAGE>

                           B.       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY
AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT BORROWER OR LENDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, AT ANY TIME
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN, THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR HEREBY, BEFORE OR AFTER MATURITY.

                           C.       CERTIFICATIONS. BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES
THAT NEITHER ANY REPRESENTATIVE NOR AGENT OF LENDER NOR LENDER'S COUNSEL HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT LENDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTION BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATION HEREIN.

                  14.10.   Indemnification by Borrower/Waiver of Claims.
Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel selected
by Lender) and hold harmless Lender and its officers, partners, employees,
consultants and agents from and against any and all claims, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the actual fees
and expenses of counsel) which may be incurred by or asserted against Lender or
any such other Person in connection with:

                           (a)      any investigation, action or proceeding
arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement, any of the Loans, any
of the other Loan Documents, any other agreement relating to any of the
Obligations, any of the Collateral, or any act or omission relating to any of
the foregoing; or

                           (b)      any taxes, liabilities, claims or damages
relating to the Collateral or Lender's liens thereon; or

                           (c)      the correctness, validity or genuineness of
any instrument or document that may be released or endorsed to Borrower by
Lender (which shall automatically be deemed to be without recourse to Lender in
any event), or the existence, character, quantity, quality, condition, value or
delivery of any goods purporting to be represented by any such documents; or

                           (d)      any broker's commission, finder's fee or
similar charge or fee in connection with the Loans and the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement.

                                       34
<PAGE>

                  14.11.   Savings Clause for Indemnification. To the extent
that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in Section
14.10 above may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public
policy, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to
pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all
matters referred to under Section 14.10.

                  14.12.   Waiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no
claim may be made by Borrower or any other Person against Lender or any of its
Affiliates, partners, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants for
any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim
for breach of contract, tort or any other theory of liability arising out of or
related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and
Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any
such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to
exist in its favor. Neither Lender nor any of its Affiliates, partners,
officers, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except for its or their
own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                  14.13.   Entire Agreement; Amendments; Lender's Consent. This
Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules thereto) and the other Loan
Documents supersede, with respect to their subject matter, all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements or conditions between
the respective parties, whether express or implied, oral or written. No
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event
be effective unless the same shall be in a Record Authenticated by Lender, and
then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which given.

                  14.14.   Cross Default. Borrower hereby agrees that all the
agreements between Borrower and Lender in connection with the mortgage loan from
Lender to Borrower in the original principal amount of $3,250,000.00 are hereby
amended so that an Event of Default under this Agreement is a default under all
such other agreements and an Event of Default under any one of the other
agreements is an Event of Default under this Agreement.

                  14.15.   Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be
deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but
one and the same agreement.

<PAGE>

                  14.16.   Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                  14.17.   Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents
and headings preceding the text of this Agreement are inserted solely for
convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement or
affect its meaning, construction or effect.

Schedules to this Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein and made
a part hereof.

         15.      GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

                                      -----

1.       Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to the Mortgage dated August 14, 2002
between Borrower and Lender, including Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements in favor of Lender in connection therewith.

Warner Bros., a division of Time Warner Entertainment Company L.P. ("Warner")
and Borrower (with regard to "Looney Tunes" cartoon characters), Borrower has
granted in favor of Warner a security interest in Borrower's inventory of
Licensed Products (as defined in such License Agreement) to secure amounts due
from Borrower to Warner under such License Agreement. Pursuant to the License
Agreement, such security interest is subordinate to any security interest that
Borrower's bank may have in Borrower's inventory.

4.       Pursuant to the License Agreement dated July 31, 2000 between Warner
and Borrower (with regard to "Harry Potter"), Borrower has granted in favor of

official records of the United States Patent and Trademark Office reflecting the
filing, after June 18, 1996, by Finova Capital Corporation of liens against such

any such liens as to these trademarks (which are not material to the operation
of the present or the anticipated future business of Borrower).
