     in full on or before  December 31, 2005, the Borrower shall pay a sum equal
     to  1.5% of the  Commitment  as a  prepayment  penalty;  (ii) in the  event
     Borrower  repays the Loan in full after  December 31, 2005 and on or before
     December  31,  2006,  the  Borrower  shall  pay a sum  equal  to 1 % of the
     Commitment as a prepayment penalty;  (iii) in the event Borrower repays the
     Loan in full after  December 31, 2006 and prior to December  31, 2007,  the
     Borrower  shall pay a sum equal to .5% of the  Commitment  as a  prepayment

     with an aggregate  purchase price which exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the
     Borrower's Excess  Availability at the time of the purchase without WFFPC's
     prior written  permission.  In the event  Borrower  makes any Bulk Purchase
     with an aggregate  purchase  price which exceeds Five Million and 00/100ths
     Dollars  ($5,000,000.00),  and  notwithstanding the definition of "Eligible
     Receivables" contained in Section 1.1 of this Agreement, none of the assets
     included in the Bulk  Purchase will be included in the  calculation  of the
     Borrowing  Base unless and until WFFPC has completed a collateral  audit of
     such  assets,  at  Borrower's  expense,  subsequent  to the Bulk  Purchase.
     Following such audit, only those assets included in the Bulk Purchase which
     qualify as Eligible Receivables shall be included in the calculation of the
     Borrowing Base.
