    7.     NO DEFENSES OF
BORROWER/GENERAL RELEASE. Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has
no defenses against the obligations to pay any amounts under the Indebtedness.
Each of Borrower and Guarantor (each, a "Releasing Party") acknowledges that
Lender would not enter into this Business Financing Modification Agreement
without Releasing Party's assurance that it has no claims against Lender or any
of Lender's officers, directors, employees or agents. Except for the obligations
arising hereafter under this Business Financing Modification Agreement, each
Releasing Party releases Lender, and each of Lender's and entity's officers,
directors and employees from any known or unknown claims that Releasing Party
now has against Lender of any nature, including any claims that Releasing Party,
its successors, counsel, and advisors may in the future discover they would have
now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded in
contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but
not limited to any claims arising out of or related to the Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby. Releasing Party waives the provisions of
California Civil Code section 1542, which states:

    


    "A
general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if
known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the
debtor."

     

    The
provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon each
Releasing Party and its shareholders, agents, employees, assigns and successors
in interest. The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to
the benefit of Lender and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns
and successors in interest. The provisions of this section shall survive payment
in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Business
Financing Modification Agreement and the Agreement, and/or Lender's actions to
exercise any remedy available under the Agreement or otherwise.

     

    8.     CONTINUING VALIDITY.
Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the existing Indebtedness,
Lender is relying upon Borrower's representations, warranties, and agreements,
as set forth in the Existing Documents. Except as expressly modified pursuant to
this Business Financing Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing
Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Lender's agreement to
modifications to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Business Financing
Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Lender to make any future
modifications to the Indebtedness. Nothing in this Business Financing
Modification Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of the Indebtedness. It
is the intention of Lender and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers
and endorsers of Existing Documents, unless the party is expressly released by
Lender in writing. No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released by virtue
of this Business Financing Modification Agreement. The terms of this paragraph
apply not only to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, but also to
any subsequent Business Financing modification agreements.

     

    9.     CONDITIONS. The
effectiveness of this Business Financing Modification Agreement is conditioned
upon the following: (i) payment of the Facility Fee ($2,500), (ii) payment of
the Equipment 5 Facility Fee ($2,500) and (iii) receipt of the revised
Unconditional Guaranty from Mica-Tech, Inc. securing all Obligations owed by
Borrower to Lender.

     

    10.          
COUNTERSIGNATURE.
This Business Financing Modification Agreement shall become effective only when
executed by Lender, Borrower, and Guarantor.
