         For value received, BEKINS DISTRIBUTION SERVICES CO., INC, formerly
known as BDS Acquisition Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"),
promises to pay to the order of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking
association formerly NationsBank, N.A., formerly The Boatmen's National Bank of
St. Louis ("Bank") the principal sum of ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND
NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,500,000.00) or such lesser aggregate unpaid principal amount
as shall be outstanding under this Revolving Note (this "Note"), plus all
interest accrued thereon, on the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

         Borrower further promises to pay interest from the date hereof on the
balance of said principal from time to time outstanding at a per annum rate or
rates determined pursuant to the Loan Agreement (defined below). After maturity,
whether by acceleration or otherwise, the overdue principal and, to the extent
permitted by law, overdue interest at maturity in respect of this Note and all
other overdue amounts owing hereunder shall bear interest, payable on demand, at
a rate set forth in the Loan Agreement. All such interest shall be computed on
the basis of a year deemed to consist of 360 days and paid for the actual number
of days elapsed. Interest shall be payable on such dates as are provided under
the Loan Agreement.

         Both principal and interest are payable in Dollars to Bank at its
Applicable Lending Office.

         This Note is the Revolving Note referred to in, and is issued under the
terms of, and pursuant to the provisions of, that certain Second Amended and
Restated Loan Agreement dated of even date herewith, between Bank and Borrower,
as amended, modified, restated or replaced from time to time whether prior to or
after the date of this Note (the "Loan Agreement"). All capitalized terms used
and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as given them in
the Loan Agreement.

         This Note is secured by the Collateral described in the Loan Documents,
executed from time to time by Borrower in favor of Bank as set forth in the Loan
Agreement and reference to the Loan Documents and the Loan Agreement is made for
a statement of the rights of the Bank with respect to such Collateral.

         Borrower shall prepay the principal amount of this Note to the extent
required in the Loan Agreement. Borrower may prepay the principal amount of this
Note to the extent and upon the conditions provided in the Loan Agreement.

         The date and amount of all disbursements and receipts representing
principal and receipts of interest by Bank with respect to the Revolving Loan
shall be recorded by Bank in the records it maintains with respect thereto. The
failure to record, or any error in recording, any of the foregoing shall not,
however, affect the obligations of Borrower under this Note to repay the
principal amount advanced hereunder together with all interest accruing thereon.
Such record as maintained by Bank shall constitute prima facie evidence of the
amount outstanding under this Note.

         Reference is made to the Loan Agreement for provisions regarding the
acceleration of the maturity hereof on the occurrence of any Event of Default,
which provisions are incorporated herein by this reference.

same shall be in writing signed by an authorized officer of Bank, and then only
