<PAGE>

money or assets, (2) purchase, create or acquire any interest in any other

any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any
Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes
incompetent or becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar
proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (C) there occurs a material adverse

Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other loan with Lender.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Borrower's accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future.
However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts

respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or
misleading at any time thereafter.

         Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for
any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors,

                                       14
<PAGE>

any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any
bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

         Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related

the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a

satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default.

(25%) or more of the common stock of Borrower.

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

         Right to Cure. if any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is
curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a
notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be
cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Borrower Or Grantor, as
the case may be, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of
such default: (1) cure the default within ten (10) days; or (2) if the cure
requires more than ten (10) days, immediately initiate steps which Lender deems
in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter
continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce
compliance as soon as reasonably practical. EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If
any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this
Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender
under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately
will terminate (including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or
disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all Indebtedness immediately will
become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that

subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In
addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related

<PAGE>

Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise. Except as may be
prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be
cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender
to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an
election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of
Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default
and to exercise its rights and remedies.

payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning
March 16, 2001, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same day

principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid
in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a

part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A) be payable on demand;
(B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable

other entity, change its name, dissolve or transfer or sell Collateral out of

occurred and is continuing or would result from the payment of dividends, if
Borrower is a "Subchapter S Corporation" (as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended), Borrower may pay cash dividends on its stock to its
shareholders from time to time in amounts necessary to enable the shareholders
to pay income taxes and make estimated income tax payments to satisfy their
liabilities under federal and state law which arise solely from their status as
Shareholders of a Subchapter S Corporation because of their ownership of sharer

money or assets, (2) purchase, create or acquire any interest in any other

any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any
Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes
incompetent or becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar
proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (C) there occurs a material adverse
change in Borrower's financial condition, in the financial condition of any

Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such
Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other loan with Lender.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of seton in all Borrower's accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future.
However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts

extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or set on all sums owing on the

administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's
charge and seton rights provided in this paragraph.

the Note, or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or
misleading at any time thereafter.

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

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

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

respect to any Guarantor of any of the indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or
becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under,

option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor's estate to
assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner
satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default.

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

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

         Right to Cure. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is
curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a
notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be
cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Borrower or Grantor, as
the case may be, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of

                                       38
<PAGE>

such default: (1) cure the default within ten (10) days; or (2) if the cure
requires more than ten (10) days, immediately initiate steps which Lender deems
in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter
continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce
compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

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