maintained with it for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it
becomes due.

2.7 NOTE; TELEPHONIC NOTICES. The Bank is authorized to record on its books the
date, amount, Rate Option and Interest Period of each Loan, and the date and
amount of each principal




                                       10
<PAGE>   11

payment made under the Notes. These records govern absent manifest error,
provided that neither the failure to record nor any error in that record affects
the Borrower's obligations under the Notes. The Borrower authorizes the Bank to
extend Loans and effect Rate Option selections based on telephonic notices made
by any person or persons the Bank in good faith believes to be acting on behalf
of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Bank a written
confirmation, if that confirmation is requested by the Bank, of each telephonic
notice, signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower. If the written
confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Bank,
the records of the Bank govern, absent manifest error.

2.8 INTEREST PAYMENT DATES; INTEREST BASIS. Interest accrued on the Loans is
payable (i) for Floating Rate Loans, on the last day of each month, (ii) for
Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the last day of its applicable Interest Period and
(iii) for all Loans, on any date on which the Loan is paid or prepaid, whether
due to acceleration or otherwise. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan,
if any, having an Interest Period longer than three months is also payable on
the last day of each three-month interval during that Interest Period. Interest
and commitment fees are calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a
360-day year. Interest is payable for the day a Loan is made but not for the day
of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local
time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on a
Loan becomes due on a day which is not a Business Day, that payment must be made
on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment,
that extension of time is included in computing interest.

2.9 APPLICABLE MARGIN ADJUSTMENTS. The Applicable Margin is determined based on
the ratio (the "Ratio") of (i) the Funded Debt of the Borrower as of each fiscal
quarter end (each a "Determination Date") to (ii) the EBITDA of the Borrower for
the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ending, and the pricing matrix in the
definition of Applicable Margin. Each determination and adjustment will only be
applied prospectively, and is made irrespective of any other interest rate
adjustment. Each adjustment, if any, of the Applicable Margin based upon the
Ratio as of each Determination Date shall be made as of the first day of the
second calendar quarter following such Determination Date. Without limiting any
of the other rights and remedies of the Bank under this Agreement, in the event
the Borrower shall fail to deliver the financial statements required under
Section 6.1 when required for any Determination Date, the Applicable Margin
shall be adjusted to, or remain at, as the case may be, the highest level set
forth in the definition of the term "Applicable Margin" until such time as such
financial statements are so delivered and demonstrate that the Applicable Margin
should be set at a different level in accordance with such definition and this
Section 2.9.

2.10 LETTERS OF CREDIT. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may
request Letters of Credit at any time prior to the Termination Date. Each
request must be in the form of the Letter of Credit Documents. Each Letter of
Credit must expire on the earlier of the Termination Date or twelve months after
its issuance date.

2.11 LETTER OF CREDIT COMMISSIONS. Each Letter of Credit is subject to a
commission in the amount equal to the greater of $250 or 1% per annum of the
face amount plus the costs of issuance.




                                       11
<PAGE>   12

2.12     BORROWING BASE ADJUSTMENTS. The Borrower agrees that if at any time any
trade account receivable or any inventory of the Borrower or any Guarantor fails
to constitute Eligible Account Receivable, eligible Unbilled Accounts Receivable
or Eligible Inventory, as the case may be, for any reason, the Bank may, at any
time and notwithstanding any prior classification of eligibility, classify such
asset or property as ineligible and exclude the same from the computation of the
Facility A Borrowing Base or the Facility B Borrowering Base, as the case may
be, without in any way impairing the rights of the Bank in and to the same under
any Security Agreement.

2.13     SECURITY AND COLLATERAL. To secure the payment when due of the Notes
and all other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement to the Bank, the
Borrower shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to
the Bank Security Documents granting the following:

         i) Security interests in all present and future accounts, inventory,
general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, equipment, fixtures, and all
other personal property of the Borrower.

         ii)  Mortgage liens on the Mortgaged Property.

         iii) Guarantees of each Guarantor.

         iv)  Security interests in all present and future accounts, inventory,
general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, equipment, fixtures, and all
other personal property of the Guarantors.

         v)   Pledge of 65% of the stock of Perceptron BV owned by the Borrower
and a pledge of 100% of the stock of Perceptron GmbH owned by Perceptron BV,
which shall be completed within 45 days after the Effective Date by execution
and delivery of Pledge Agreements or similar documents as required by the
applicable foreign jurisdictions to create a first priority perfected pledge of
such stock.

         vi)  All other security and collateral described in the Security
Documents.

2.14     AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT. This Agreement amends and restates the
Existing Credit Agreement as of the Effective Date. All Obligations (as defined
in the Existing Credit Agreement) outstanding under the Existing Credit
Agreement shall constitute Obligations under this Agreement. The Obligations and
other liabilities pursuant hereto are issued in exchange and replacement for the
Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and other liabilities
under the Existing Credit Agreement, shall not be a novation or satisfaction
thereof and shall be entitled to the same collateral with the same priority.

                       ARTICLE 3 - CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

3.1      YIELD PROTECTION. If any change after the date of this Agreement
(whether or not now contemplated) in any law or governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy,



                                       12
<PAGE>   13

guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or change after
the date of this Agreement (whether or not now contemplated) in any
interpretation of them, or compliance by the Bank with any of them after any
such change becomes effective,

     (i) subjects the Bank or any applicable Lending Installation to any tax,
duty, charge or withholding on or from payments due from the Borrower (excluding
taxation of the overall net income of the Bank or applicable Lending
Installation), or changes the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank in
respect of its Loans or other amounts due to it under this Agreement, or

     (ii) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment,
insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank or any
applicable Lending Installation (other than reserves and assessments taken into
account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Rate Loans),
or

     (iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the
cost to the Bank or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or
maintaining loans or reduces any amount receivable by the Bank or any applicable
Lending Installation in connection with loans, or requires the Bank or any
applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by reference to
the amount of loans held or interest received by it, by an amount deemed
material by the Bank, or

     (iv) affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by
the Bank or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling the Bank,
and the Bank determines the amount of capital required is increased by or based
on the existence of this Agreement or its obligation to make Loans under this
Agreement or of commitments of this type,

then, within 15 days of the Bank's demand, the Borrower must pay the Bank that
portion of the increased expense incurred (including, in the case of Section
3.1(iv), any reduction in the rate of return on capital to an amount below that
which it could have achieved but for the law, rule, regulation, policy,
guideline or directive, and after taking into account the Bank's policies as to
capital adequacy) or reduction in amounts received which the Bank determines is
attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Loans and its Commitments
(after taking into account the Bank's policies with respect to capital
adequacy). The Bank represents that it does not know of any amount that would be
payable under this Section 3.1 as of the date of this Agreement, although there
may be current laws or regulations that may cause an amount to be payable
hereunder after the date of this Agreement. The Bank will not assess amounts
under this Section 3.1 unless the Bank is generally charging such amounts to the
majority of its similarly situated customers.

3.2 AVAILABILITY OF RATE OPTIONS. If the Bank determines that maintenance of its
Eurodollar Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any
applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force
of law, or if the Bank determines that (i) deposits of a type and maturity
appropriate to match fund Eurodollar Rate Loans are not available to it, or (ii)
a Rate Option does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining a
Loan at that Rate Option, then the Bank may suspend the availability of the
affected Rate Option (other than the



                                       13
<PAGE>   14

Floating Rate) and require any Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding under an
affected Rate Option to be, at the Borrower's option, either repaid or converted
to an unaffected Rate Option.

3.3 FUNDING INDEMNIFICATION. If any payment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan occurs on
a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether
because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurodollar Rate Loan is
not made on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default
by the Bank, the Borrower indemnifies the Bank for any loss or cost incurred by
it resulting from these facts, including without limitation any loss or cost in
liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the Eurodollar
Rate Loan.

3.4 BANK STATEMENTS; SURVIVAL OF INDEMNITY. To the extent reasonably possible,
the Bank will designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to
Eurodollar Rate Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to the Bank under
Section 3.1 or to avoid the unavailability of a Rate Option under Section 3.2,
so long as that designation is not disadvantageous to the Bank. The Bank will
deliver a written statement as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1 or
3.3. That written statement will set forth in reasonable detail the calculations
upon which the Bank determined the amount, and is final, conclusive and binding
on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts
payable under those Sections in connection with a Eurodollar Rate Loan will be
calculated as though the Bank funded its Eurodollar Rate Loan through the
purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used
as a reference in determining the Eurodollar Rate applicable to that Loan,
whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the amount specified in the written statement is payable on demand
after receipt by the Borrower of the written statement. The obligations of the
Borrower under Sections 3.1 and 3.3 survive payment of the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement.

The Borrower warrants to the Bank that:

5.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND STANDING. Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries
is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has all requisite authority to
conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted
except where the failure to have that authority would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.

5.2 AUTHORIZATION AND VALIDITY. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors has the
corporate power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver this
Agreement, the Notes and the Security Documents to which it is a party and to
perform its obligations under them. The execution and delivery by the Borrower
and the Guarantors of this Agreement, the Notes and the Security Documents to
which it is a party and the performance of its obligations under them have been
duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and this Agreement, the Notes
and the Security Documents to which it is a party each constitute legal, valid

Subsidiary, or the Borrower's or any Subsidiary's articles of incorporation or
bylaws, or the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the
Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party or is subject, or by which it or its
property is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default under any indenture,

     (vii) Any Lien created to secure payment of a portion of the purchase price
of, or existing at the time of acquisition of, any tangible fixed asset acquired

and provided, further, that not more than one such Lien shall encumber any such

by a rating agency of recognized standing, or certificates of deposit in insured
financial institutions, and (ii) loans and advances by any Subsidiary of the
Borrower to any other Subsidiary of the Borrower and advances (without any
repayment obligation) by any Subsidiary of the Borrower to the Borrower. Nothing
in this Section shall prohibit trade accounts payable and receivable between the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries or between any Subsidiary of the Borrower and any
other Subsidiary of the Borrower arising in the ordinary course of business and

of any shares of its capital stock, other than such dividends, payments or other
distributions to the extent payable solely in shares of the capital stock of the

to exist any Lien upon any of its assets, rights, revenues or property, real,
personal or mixed, tangible or intangible, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired.

6.19 ADDITIONAL SECURITY AND COLLATERAL. Promptly (i) execute and deliver and
cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower and the Guarantors to execute and deliver,
additional Security Documents, within 30 days after request therefor by the
Bank, sufficient to grant to the Bank liens and security interests in any after
acquired property of the type described in Section 2.13, and (ii) cause each
person becoming a Subsidiary of the Borrower or any Guarantor from time to time
to execute and deliver to the Bank, within 30 days after such person becomes a

                              ARTICLE 7 - DEFAULTS

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events constitutes a Default:

7.1 Any warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary to the Bank under or in connection any Loan Document, any Loan, any
Letter of Credit or any certificate or information delivered in connection with
any Loan Document is materially false on the date as of which it is made.

with respect to any breach under 6.1, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, 6.10, 6.11
or 6.18, such breach is not remedied within 10 days.

7.4 The Borrower or any Subsidiary breaches (other than a breach which
constitutes a Default under Section 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3) any of the terms of this
Agreement and such breach is not remedied within thirty days after written

agreement with the Bank or any of its affiliates or any default occurs under any
other agreement with the Bank or any of its affiliates and such breach or
default is not remedied within any grace period provided with respect thereto
and after any required notices have been given by the Bank or such affiliate.

7.5 The Borrower or any Subsidiary fails to pay any debt for borrowed money when
due, which individually or together with other such debt as to which any such
failure exists has an

<PAGE>   25

aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of $100,000; or the Borrower or
any Subsidiary defaults in the performance of any term contained in any
agreement under which that debt was created or is governed, the effect of which
is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of that debt to cause, that debt
to become due prior to its stated maturity; or any debt of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary is declared to be due and payable or required to be prepaid or
repurchased (other than by a regularly scheduled payment) prior to its stated
maturity, which individually or together with other such debt as to which any
such failure exists has an aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of
$100,000; or the Borrower or any Subsidiary does not pay, or admits in writing
its inability to pay, its debts generally as they become due.

7.6 The Borrower or any Subsidiary (i) has an order for relief entered with
respect to it under present or future Federal bankruptcy laws, (ii) makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iii) applies for, seeks, consents to,
or acquiesces in, the appointment of a receiver, custodian, trustee, examiner,
liquidator or similar official for it or any substantial part of its property,
(iv) institutes any proceeding seeking an order for relief under present or
future Federal bankruptcy laws, or seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or
insolvent, or seeking dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its debts under any law relating
to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or fails to
file an answer or other pleading denying the material allegations of any such
proceeding filed against it, (v) takes any corporate action to authorize or
effect any of the foregoing actions set forth in this Section 7.6 or (vi) fails

7.7 Without the application, approval or consent of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, a receiver, trustee, examiner, liquidator or similar official is
appointed for the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any substantial part of its
property, or a proceeding described in Section 7.6(iv) is instituted against the
Borrower or any Subsidiary and that appointment continues undischarged or those
proceedings continue undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive
days.

7.8 The Borrower or any Subsidiary shall fail within 30 days to pay, bond or
otherwise discharge any judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of
$500,000, which is not stayed on appeal or otherwise being appropriately
contested in good faith or is not fully insured against, within the applicable
period of limitations for appealing such judgment or order and prior to the
denial of any such appeal.

7.9 Any reportable event (as defined in Section 4043 of ERISA) occurs in
connection with any plan (as defined in ERISA) which results in or could result
in a Material Adverse Effect and such reportable event is not corrected within

7.10 Any Person, or two or more Persons acting in concert, acquires beneficial
ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of 30% or more of the
outstanding shares of the Borrower's voting stock.

7.11 Any event of default described in any Loan Document shall have occurred and
be continuing, or any material provision of any Loan Document shall at any time
for any reason




                                       25
<PAGE>   26

cease to be valid and binding and enforceable against any obligor thereunder, or
the validity, binding effect or enforceability thereof shall be contested by any
person, or any obligor, shall deny that it has any or further liability or
obligation thereunder, or any Loan Document shall be terminated, invalidated or
set aside, or be declared ineffective or inoperative or in any way cease to give
or provide to the Bank the benefits purported to be created thereby.

               ARTICLE 8 - ACCELERATION; REMEDIES; AND AMENDMENTS

8.1 ACCELERATION. If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs with
respect to the Borrower, the Commitment and the obligation of the Bank to make
Loans automatically terminates and the Obligations are immediately due and
payable without any election or action on the part of the Bank. If any other
Default occurs, the Bank may terminate or suspend the Commitment and its
obligation to make Loans, or declare the Obligations due and payable, or both,
whereupon the Obligations are immediately due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower expressly
waives.

8.2 PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS. No delay or omission of the Bank to exercise any
right under this Agreement or any Note impairs that right nor can it be
construed to waive any Default or acquiesce in any Default, and the making of a
Loan notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Borrower
to satisfy the conditions precedent to that Loan does not constitute a waiver or
acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any right does not preclude any
other or further exercise of it or the exercise of any other right, and no
waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms of this Agreement or any Note
is valid unless in writing signed by the Bank and the Borrower and then only to
the extent that writing specifies. All remedies contained in this Agreement and
the Notes or by law afforded are cumulative and all are available to the Bank
until the Obligations have been paid in full.

8.3 AMENDMENTS. Subject to the provisions of this Article 8, the Bank and the
Borrower may enter into agreements supplementing this Agreement for the purpose
of adding or modifying this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document or
changing in any manner the rights of the Bank or the Borrower or waiving any
Default.

8.4 SETOFF. In addition to and without limiting any rights of the Bank under
applicable law, if the Borrower becomes insolvent, howsoever evidenced, or any
Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether
provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other
debt at any time held or owing by the Bank to or for the credit or account of
the Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations
owing to the Bank, whether or all or any part of the Obligations are then due.

                         ARTICLE 9 - GENERAL PROVISIONS




                                       26
<PAGE>   27

9.1 SURVIVAL OF WARRANTIES. All warranties of the Borrower contained in this
Agreement survive the delivery of the Notes and the making of the Loans and the
issuance of Letters of Credit.

9.2 TAXES. Any taxes (excluding income taxes) or other similar assessments or
charges payable or ruled payable by any governmental authority in respect of
this Agreement and the Note must be paid by the Borrower, together with interest
and penalties, if any.

9.3 EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower must reimburse the Bank for any
costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and time charges of attorneys for the Bank, who may be employees
of the Bank) paid or incurred by the Bank in connection with the preparation,
review, execution, delivery, amendment, modification; administration, collection
and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that
attorneys fees in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Loan
Documents up and until the Effective Date shall not exceed an amount to be
agreed upon between the Borrower and the Bank's counsel plus costs. The Borrower
further indemnifies the Bank, its directors, officers and employees against all
losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses
(including without limitation all expenses of litigation or preparation for
litigation whether or not the Bank is a party) which any of them pay or incur
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the
transactions described in this Agreement or the direct or indirect application
or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan, provided, however, that the
Borrower shall not be required to indemnify the Bank or any such other person,
to the extent, but only to the extent, that such losses, claims, damages,
penalties, judgments, liabilities or expenses are of a type generally borne by
lenders in the ordinary course of business and are not material in amount in the
aggregate, or which are attributable to the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Bank. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section
survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.4 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents bind and benefit the Borrower and the Bank and their respective
successors and assigns, except that the Borrower has no right to assign its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. The Bank
may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance
with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities
participating interests in any Loan, the Notes or the Commitments. The Bank may,
with the consent of the Borrower, which consent may not be unreasonably
withheld, assign to one or more banks or other entities all or any part of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes or the Loan Documents,
and the Borrower releases the Bank for the amount so assigned.

9.5 GIVING NOTICE. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 2.7 with respect to
borrowing notices, all notices, requests and other communications to any party
must be in writing (including bank wire, telex, facsimile transmission or
similar writing) and must be given to a party: (y) in the case of the Borrower
or the Bank, at its address, facsimile number or telex number set forth on the
signature page below, or (z) in the case of any party, whatever other address,
facsimile number or telex number that party specifies for the purpose, by notice
to the other. Each notice, request or other communication is effective (i) if
given by telex, when it is transmitted to the telex number specified in this
Section and the appropriate answerback is received, (ii) if given by




                                       27
<PAGE>   28

facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the facsimile number specified in

hours after that communication is deposited in the mails with first class
postage prepaid, addressed as required, or (iv) if given by any other means,
when delivered at the address specified in this Section. However, notices to the
Bank under Article 2 are not effective until received.

           ARTICLE 10 - GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL WAIVER

10.1 CHOICE OF LAW. This Agreement and the Notes are to be construed in
accordance with the internal laws (but not the law of conflicts) of Michigan.

10.2 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. The Borrower irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States federal or Michigan state court
sitting in Michigan in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
any Loan, and the Borrower irrevocably agrees that all such claims may be heard
and determined in any such court and irrevocably waives any present and future
objection it may have as to the venue of any action or proceeding brought in
that court, or that that court is an inconvenient forum. Any judicial proceeding
by the Borrower against the Bank or any affiliate of the Bank involving,
directly or indirectly, any matter in any way arising out of, related to, or
connected with any Loan must be brought only in a court in Michigan.

10.3 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The Bank and the Borrower knowingly and voluntarily
waive any right either of them to have to a trial by jury in any proceeding
(whether sounding in contract or tort) which is in any way connected with this
or any related agreement, or the relationship established under them. This
provision may only be modified in a written instrument executed by the Bank and
the Borrower.
