     1.  DEFINITIONS. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall
have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement.

     2.  AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT.

         2.1 Section 1 of the Loan Agreement. Section 1 of the Loan Agreement is
hereby amended by restating it in its entirety, as follows:

     1.  Commitment of the Bank.

         The Bank agrees to extend a loan (the "Loan") to the Borrower in the
     principal amount of TWENTY-FIVE MILLION and 00/100 DOLLARS ($25,000,000),
     evidenced by a promissory note (the "Note") and secured by the Pledge

<PAGE>

     Pledgor") and the Bank (each a "Pledge Agreement" and, collectively, the
     "Pledge Agreements"), in accordance with the terms and subject to the
     conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreements and
     the Subsidiary's Pledge .

          2.2  Section 3 of the Loan Agreement. Section 3 of the Loan Agreement
is hereby amended by restating it in its entirety, as follows:

          3.   Note Evidencing Borrowing.

          The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note executed by the Borrower in
     the principal amount of TWENTY-FIVE MILLION and 00/100 DOLLARS
     ($25,000,000), which Note shall be in the form set forth as Exhibit A-1
     hereto:

               (a) Interest on amounts outstanding under the Note shall be
     payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on May 1, 1999 and continuing on
     the first day of each quarter thereafter. A final payment of all
     outstanding amounts due under the Note; including, but not limited to
     principal, interest and any amounts owing under Subsection 11(m) of this
     Agreement, if not payable earlier, shall be due and payable on May 1, 2000.
     The amounts outstanding under the Note from time to time shall bear
     interest calculated on the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a
     360 day year, at a rate equal, at the Borrower's option, to either (a)
     LIBOR plus 175 basis points, or (b) the Prime Rate (whichever rate is so
     selected, the "Interest Rate").

          For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Prime Rate" shall mean the
     floating prime rate in effect from time to time as set by the Bank, and
     referred to by the Bank as its Prime Rate. The Borrower acknowledges that
     the Prime Rate is not necessarily the Bank's lowest or most favorable rate
     of interest at any one time. The effective date of any change in the Prime
     Rate shall for purposes hereof be the date the rate change is publicly
     announced by the Bank.

          For purposes of this Agreement, "LIBOR" shall mean the per annum rate
     of interest at which U.S. dollar deposits in an amount comparable to the
     amount of the relevant LIBOR Loan and for a period equal to the relevant
     "Interest Period" (hereinafter defined) are offered generally to the Bank
     (rounded upward if necessary, to the nearest 1/16 of 1.00%) in the London
     Interbank Eurodollar market at 11:00 a.m. (London time) two banking days
     prior to the commencement of each Interest Period, such rate to remain
     fixed for such Interest Period. "Interest Period" shall mean successive
     one, two, three or six month periods as selected from time to time by the
     Borrower by notice given to the Bank not less than three banking days prior
     to the first day of each respective Interest Period; provided that: (i)
     each such one, two, three or six month period occurring after such initial
     period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding period
     expires; (ii) the final Interest Period shall be such that its expiration
     occurs on or before the stated maturity date hereof; and (iii) if for any
     reason the Borrower shall fail to select timely a period, then it shall be
     deemed to have selected a one month period. Interest shall be payable on
     the last banking day of each Interest Period, commencing on the first such
     date to occur after the date hereof,

                                       2

<PAGE>

     at maturity, after maturity on demand, and on the date of any payment
     hereon on the amount paid. The Borrower hereby further promises to pay to
     the order of the Bank, on demand, interest on the unpaid principal amount
     hereof after maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate of
     two per cent per annum in excess of the rate in effect at the time of
     maturity.

          The Bank's determination of LIBOR as provided above shall be
     conclusive, absent manifest error. Furthermore, if the Bank determines, in
     good faith (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest
     error), prior to the commencement of any Interest Period that (a) U.S.
     dollar deposits of sufficient amount and maturity for funding any LIBOR
     Loan are not available to the Bank in the London Interbank Eurodollar
     market in the ordinary course of business, or (b) by reason of
     circumstances affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar market, adequate
     and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the rate of interest to be
     applicable to the relevant LIBOR Loan, the Bank shall promptly notify the
     Borrower and such LIBOR Loan shall automatically convert on the last day of
     its then-current Interest Period to a loan bearing interest at the Prime
     Rate.

          If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in any
     applicable law, treaty, rule, regulation or guideline or in the
     interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority or
     any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority having
     jurisdiction over the Bank or its lending office (a "Regulatory Change"),
     shall, in the opinion of counsel to the Bank, makes it unlawful for the
     Bank to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan evidenced hereby, then the Bank
     shall promptly notify the Borrower and such LIBOR Loan shall automatically
     convert on the last day of its then-current Interest Period to a loan
     bearing interest at the Prime Rate.

          If, for any reason, any LIBOR Loan is paid prior to the last banking
     day of its then-current Interest Period, the Borrower agrees to indemnify
     the Bank against any loss (including any loss on redeployment of the funds
     repaid), cost or expense incurred by the Bank as a result of such
     prepayment.

          If any Regulatory Change (whether or not having the force of law)
     shall (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any assessment, reserve,
     special deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits
     in or for the account of or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds or
     disbursements by, the Bank; (b) subject the Bank or any LIBOR Loan to any
     tax, duty, charge, stamp tax or fee or change the basis of taxation of
     payments to the Bank of principal or interest due from the Borrower to the
     Bank hereunder (other than a change in the taxation of the overall net
     income of the Bank); or (c) impose on the Bank any other condition
     regarding such LIBOR Loan or the Bank's funding thereof, and the Bank shall
     determine (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error)
     that the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of
     making or maintaining such LIBOR Loan or to reduce the amount of principal
     or interest received by the bank hereunder, then the Borrower shall pay to
     the Bank, on demand, such additional amounts as the Bank shall, from time
     to time, determine are sufficient to compensate and indemnify the Bank for
     such increased cost or reduced amount.

                                       3

<PAGE>

               (b)  Any amount of principal or interest on the Note which is not
     paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise
     shall bear interest payable on demand at an interest rate equal at all
     times to two percent (2%) above the Interest Rate.

               (c)  If any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder shall
     become due on a Saturday, Sunday or banking holiday under the laws of the
     State of Illinois, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
     business day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any
     interest in respect of such payment.

Borrower warrants that:

                                   Exhibit A-1

                           REPLACEMENT REVOLVING NOTE

Executed: this 1st day of February, 1999
Amount: $15,000,000                                           Due: April 1, 2000

     On April 1, 2000, GOLD BANC CORPORATION, INC., a Kansas corporation (the
"Undersigned"), whose address is 11301 Nall Avenue, Leawood, Kansas 66211, for
value received, promises to pay to the order of LASALLE NATIONAL BANK, a
national banking association (the "Bank"), whose address is 135 South LaSalle
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, the lesser of: the principal sum of FIFTEEN
MILLION and 00/100 DOLLARS ($15,000,000), or the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the revolving credit loan made available by the Bank to the
Undersigned together with interest on any and all principal amounts outstanding
hereunder from time to time from the date hereof until maturity. The Undersigned
may borrow, repay (except as provided herein) without penalty and reborrow under
this Note, from the date hereof until April 1, 2000.

     Interest shall be computed on the actual number of days elapsed on the
basis of a 360 day year, on any and all principal amounts remaining unpaid
hereunder from time to time outstanding from the date of borrowing until payment
at a rate equal to one of the following options selected by the Undersigned:

          (i)  the rate in effect from time to time as set by the Bank, and
     called its Prime Rate. "Prime Rate" shall mean the rate of interest then
     most recently announced by the Bank as its Prime Rate, which is not
     necessarily the Bank's lowest or most favorable rate of interest at any one
     time. Each change in the interest rate hereon shall take effect on the
     effective date of the change in the Prime Rate. The Bank shall not be
     obligated to give notice of any change in the Prime Rate. Interest under
     this option shall be payable quarterly, on the first day of each successive
     calendar quarter, commencing February 1, 1999.

          (ii) 175 basis points over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("Libor
     Rate"). Libor Rate for purposes hereof shall mean the rate per annum (as
     conclusively determined by the Bank) at which United States Dollar deposits
     are offered by prime banks in the London Interbank Market at 11:00 a.m.
     London time to leading banks in the London Interbank Market two Eurodollar
     business days prior to the effective date of the borrowing for such
     interest period or periods when and if available, for one, two, three or
     six months. If no interest period is specified by the Undersigned, a one
     month Libor period shall be selected. Interest under this option shall be
     due and payable at the earlier of quarterly, commencing February 1, 1999,
     or at the maturity of the loan under this option. Any loan outstanding
     under this option may not be prepaid prior to the expiration of the
     requested interest period without the prior written consent of the Bank.
     The Undersigned may identify no more than three portions of the outstanding
     principal balance of the Note which

<PAGE>

     will bear interest at the Libor Rate. Each Libor loan must equal $100,000
     or an integral part thereof.

     Should any new or existing statute, treaty or regulation (including,
without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System), or any interpretation thereof by any governmental authority
charged with the administration thereof, or any action by any central bank or
other fiscal authority having jurisdiction over the Bank (or any of its branches
or affiliates) or the revolving credit loan impose, modify, or deem applicable
any reserve and/or special deposit requirement against any assets held by, or
deposits in or for the amount of any revolving credit loan by the Bank (or any
branch or affiliate of the Bank involved in transactions contemplated by this
Note), except for such matters which resulted in a change in the Libor Rate
pursuant to the definition of Libor Rate contained herein, that the result of
the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining such
LIBOR loan, then the Undersigned shall pay to the Bank, on demand, an additional
amount, as the Bank shall from time to time determine, is sufficient to
indemnify the Bank for such increased cost. Should any of the aforementioned
measures, or any similar measure, result in a reduction in the amount of
principal or interest receivable by the Bank with respect to its revolving
credit loan or an increase in the cost to the Bank with respect to the amount of
principal or interest receivable by the Bank with respect to its revolving
credit loan or an increase in the cost to the Bank of funding its revolving
credit loan in the London Interbank dollar market (whether or not such loan is
actually so funded) or engaging in any other transaction material to the
maintenance of its revolving credit loan with interest thereon based on the
Libor Rate (such reduction in amounts receivable or increases in costs being
hereinafter referred to as "Costs"), the Undersigned shall fully compensate the
Bank as of the end of each period for which the Libor Rate has been determined
during which such measures were in effect for the Costs incurred during such
period. All such Costs shall be determined by the Bank and a statement thereof
shall be sent by the Bank to the Undersigned when such Costs have been
determined, and such determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the
Undersigned in the absence of manifest error, but the Bank shall, as promptly as
practicable, notify the Undersigned of the existence of any event which would
(if interest were to be accrued based on the Libor Rate) require reimbursement
by the Undersigned of Costs incurred by the Bank.

     The Undersigned hereby authorizes the Bank to charge any account of the
Undersigned for all sums due hereunder, following a default hereunder. Principal
payments submitted in funds not available until collected shall continue to bear
interest until collected. If payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a
Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of the United States or the
State of Illinois, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding
business day, and interest shall be payable thereon at the rate specified during
such extension.

     This Note is executed pursuant to a revolving line of credit under which
Undersigned is indebted to Bank and evidences the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all advances made or to be made by Bank to Undersigned under the Note.
All advances and repayments hereunder shall be evidenced by entries on the books
and records of Bank which shall be presumptive evidence of the principal amount
and interest owing and unpaid on this Note, or any renewal or extension hereof.
The failure to so record any such amount or any error so recording any such
amount shall not,

                                       2

<PAGE>

however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Undersigned hereunder
to repay the principal amount of the liabilities together with all interest
accruing thereon.

     Advances under this Note may be made by Bank upon the oral or written
request of any person whose authority to so act has not been revoked by the
Undersigned in writing theretofore received by Bank at its main office. Any such
advances shall be conclusively presumed to have been made by Bank for the
benefit of the Undersigned. The Undersigned does hereby irrevocably confirm,
ratify and approve all such advances by Bank and does hereby indemnify Bank
against losses and expenses (including court costs, attorneys' and paralegals'
fees) and shall hold Bank harmless with respect thereto.

     As security for the payment of this Note and any other liabilities and
obligations of the Undersigned to Bank howsoever created, arising or evidenced,
and howsoever owned, held or acquired, (all such liabilities and obligations,
including this Note, are hereinafter called the "Obligations"), the Undersigned
hereby pledges, assigns, transfers and delivers to Bank and hereby grants to
Bank a continuing security interest in any property of the Undersigned of any
kind or description, tangible or intangible, now or hereafter assigned,
transferred or delivered to or left in or coming into the possession, control or
custody of, or in transit to, Bank or any agent or bailee for the Bank, by or
for the account of the Undersigned whether expressly as collateral security or
for any other purpose, and any property covered by a security agreement signed
by the Undersigned in favor of Bank, including, but not limited to: (1) cash,
accounts, inventory, negotiable instruments, documents of title, chattel paper,
certificates of deposit, securities, deposit accounts, other cash equivalents
and all other property of the Undersigned of whatever description whether now
existing or hereafter acquired, now or hereafter in the possession or control of
or assigned to the Bank, and the products and proceeds therefrom, including the
proceeds of insurance thereon; and (2) the additional property of the
Undersigned whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired, together with
any substitutions therefor, accessions thereto, or products and proceeds
therefrom, including the proceeds of insurance thereon, consisting of certain
shares of the capital stock of the Undersigned's wholly-owned subsidiaries, as
set forth on Schedule 1, hereto.

     All of the aforesaid is collectively referred to herein as the
"Collateral". The terms used herein to identify the Collateral shall have the
respective meanings assigned to such terms as of the date hereof in the Illinois
Uniform Commercial Code. The cancellation or surrender of this Note, upon
payment or otherwise, shall not affect the right of the Bank to retain the
Collateral for any other of the Obligations. The Undersigned agrees to deliver
to Bank immediately upon its demand, such other collateral as Bank may from time
to time request should the value of the Collateral in the Bank's reasonable
discretion, decline, deteriorate, depreciate or become impaired in a material
manner, or should Bank, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, deem
itself insecure for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, a
change in the financial condition of the Undersigned. The Undersigned hereby
grants to Bank a continuing security interest in such other collateral, which,
when pledged, assigned and transferred to Bank shall part of the Collateral. The
Bank's security interests in each of the foregoing Collateral shall be valid,
complete and perfected whether or not the same shall be covered by a specific
assignment.

                                       3

<PAGE>

     The Bank shall have exercised reasonable care in the custody and
preservation of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as the
Undersigned shall reasonably request in writing, provided that such request
shall not be inconsistent with Bank's status as a secured party. No failure of
Bank to preserve or protect any rights with respect to the Collateral against
prior or third parties, or to do any act with respect to preservation of the
Collateral not so requested by the Undersigned shall be deemed a failure to
exercise reasonable care in the custody or preservation of the Collateral. The
Undersigned shall have the sole responsibility for taking such action as may be
necessary, from time to time, to preserve all rights of the Undersigned and Bank
in the Collateral against prior or third parties. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Undersigned represents to, and covenants with
the Bank that the Undersigned has made arrangements for keeping informed of
changes or potential changes affecting the securities constituting Collateral
(including, but not limited to, rights to convert, subscribe, payment of
dividends, reorganization, other exchanges, tender offers and voting rights),
and the Undersigned agrees that the Bank shall have no responsibility or
liability for informing the Undersigned of any changes or potential changes or
for taking any action or omitting to take any action with respect thereto.

     All Obligations of the Undersigned and all rights, powers and remedies of
the Bank expressed herein shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of,
those provided by law or in any written agreement (other than this Note)
relating to any of the Obligations or any security therefor. In addition to all
other rights possessed by it, the Bank may, from time to time, after default (as
hereinafter provided), at its sole discretion, and without notice to the
Undersigned take the following actions: (1) transfer the whole or any part of
securities constituting Collateral into its name or the name of its nominee
without disclosing, that such securities so transferred are subject to the
security interests granted hereunder, and any corporation or association, or any
of the managers or trustees of any trust issuing any of said securities, or any
transfer agent, shall not be bound to inquire, in the event that the Bank or
said nominee makes any further transfer of said securities, as to whether the
Bank or its nominee has the right to make such further transfer, and shall not
be liable for transferring the same; (2) notify any obligors on any of the
Collateral to make payment to the Bank of any amounts due or to become due with
respect thereto; (3) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or
otherwise, or surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof; (4) take
possession or control of any proceeds and products of any of the Collateral,
including the proceeds of insurance thereon; (5) extend, renew or modify for one
or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period) this Note, any
other of the Obligations, any obligation of any nature of any obligor with
respect to this Note, or any of the Collateral, and grant any releases,
compromises or indulgences with respect to this Note, or any other of the
Obligations, extension or renewal thereof, any security therefor, or to any
obligor hereunder or thereunder; (6) vote the Collateral; (7) make an election
with respect to the Collateral under Section 1111 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code (the "Code") or take action under Section 364 of the Code or any
other section of the Code, now existing or hereafter amended; provided, however,
that any such action of the Bank as herein set forth shall not, in any manner
whatsoever, impair nor be construed to impair or affect the liability hereunder,
nor prejudice or waive Bank's rights and remedies at law, in equity or by
statute, nor release, discharge the Undersigned or other entity liable to the
Bank for the Obligations and indebtedness; or (8) accept additions to, releases,
reductions, exchanges or substitution of the Collateral, without in any way
altering, impairing, diminishing or affecting the

                                       4

<PAGE>

provisions of this Note, any of the other Obligations, or the Bank's rights
hereunder and under any of the other Obligations.

     The Undersigned, without notice or demand of any kind, shall be in default
hereunder if: (1) any amount payable on any of the Obligations is not paid
within three (3) days of when due; or (2) the Undersigned shall otherwise fail
to perform any of the promises to be performed by it hereunder or under any
other agreement with Bank, and such failure shall not be cured within thirty
(30) days following notice thereof by the Bank; or (3) the Undersigned or any
other party liable with respect to the Obligations, shall make any assignment
for the benefit of creditors, or there shall be commenced any bankruptcy,
receivership, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation proceedings
by or against, or the entry of any judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or
other process, or the filing of any lien against the Undersigned, any other
party liable with respect to the Obligations, any of the Collateral; or (4)
there be any deterioration or impairment of any of the Collateral or a decline
in the market price thereof (whether actual or reasonably anticipated), which
causes the Collateral, in the sole opinion of Bank acting in good faith, to
become unsatisfactory as to value or character, or which causes the Bank to
reasonably believe that it is insecure and that the likelihood for repayment of
the Obligations is impaired, time being of the essence; or (5) the occurrence of
any default under a separate security agreement securing this Note, and such
failure shall not be cured within thirty(30) days following notice thereof by
the Bank; or (6) the determination by the Bank that a material adverse change
has occurred in the financial condition of the Undersigned from the condition
set forth in the most recent financial statement of the Undersigned furnished to
the Bank, or from the financial condition of the Undersigned most recently
disclosed to Bank in any manner; or (7) any oral or written warranty,
representation, certificate or statement of the Undersigned to the Bank is
untrue; or (8) the failure to do any act necessary to preserve and maintain the
value and collectability of the Collateral; or (9) failure of the Undersigned
after request by the Bank to furnish financial information or to permit
inspection by the Bank of the Undersigned's books and records; or (10) the
occurrence of any material adverse event which causes a change in the financial
condition of the Undersigned.

     Whenever the Undersigned shall be in default as aforesaid, without demand
or notice of any kind, the entire unpaid amount of all Obligations shall become
immediately due and payable, and Bank may exercise, from time to time, any
rights and remedies available to it under the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code
or otherwise, including those available under any written instrument (in
addition to this Note) relating to any of the Obligations and may, without
demand or notice of any kind, appropriate and apply toward the payment of such
of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, including costs of collection
and attorneys' and paralegals' fees, and in such order of application as the
Bank may, from time to time, elect, any balances, credits, deposits, accounts or
moneys of the Undersigned in possession, control or custody of, or in transit to
the Bank.

     THE UNDERSIGNED WAIVES EVERY DEFENSE, CAUSE OF ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR

FACT OR LAW. THE BANK AND THE UNDERSIGNED, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND
INTENTIONALLY WAIVE IRREVOCABLY, THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH
RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, ANY OF THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS, OR ANY AGREEMENT
EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT OR COURSE OF DEALING
IN WHICH THE BANK AND THE UNDERSIGNED ARE ADVERSE PARTIES. THIS PROVISION IS A
MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE BANK GRANTING ANY FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATION TO THE
UNDERSIGNED.

     The Undersigned, and any other party liable with respect to the
Obligations, and each one of them, waive any and all presentment, demand, notice
of dishonor, protest, and all other notices and demands in connection with the
enforcement of Bank's rights hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein. No
default shall be waived by the Bank except in writing. No delay on the part of
the Bank in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver
thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy
shall preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other
right or remedy. This Note: (i) is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance
with its provisions, and no conditions exist to its legal effectiveness; (ii)
contains the entire agreement between the Undersigned and Bank; (iii) is the
final expression of the intentions of the Undersigned and Bank; and (iv)
supersedes all negotiations, representations, warranties, commitments, offers,
contracts (of any kind or nature, whether oral or written) prior to or
contemporaneous with the execution hereof. No prior or contemporaneous
representations, warranties, understandings, offers or agreements of any kind,
whether oral or written, have been made by Bank or relied upon by the
Undersigned in connection with the execution hereof. No modification, discharge,
termination or waiver of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon the
Bank, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly executed on behalf of the
Bank.

     The Undersigned agrees to pay all costs, legal expenses, attorneys' fees
and paralegals' fees of every kind, paid or incurred by Bank in enforcing its
rights hereunder, including, but not limited to, litigation or proceedings
initiated under the Code, or in respect to any other of the Obligations, or in
defending against any defense, cause of action, counterclaim, setoff or
crossclaim based on any act of commission or omission by the Bank with respect
to this Note or any other of the Obligations, promptly on demand of Bank or
other person paying or incurring the same.

     TO INDUCE THE BANK TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE, THE UNDERSIGNED
IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY AS A RESULT
OR IN CONSEQUENCE OF THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT WITH THE BANK SHALL BE
INSTITUTED AND LITIGATED ONLY IN COURTS HAVING SITUS IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO,
ILLINOIS, AND THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND
VENUE OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED AND HAVING ITS SITUS IN SAID CITY,
AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS. THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY
WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS, AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH
SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED,
DIRECTED TO THE UNDERSIGNED

AT THE ADDRESS INDICATED IN THE BANK'S RECORDS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED BY
APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OF COURT OR OTHERWISE. FURTHERMORE, THE
UNDERSIGNED WAIVES ALL NOTICES AND DEMANDS IN CONNECTION WITH THE ENFORCEMENT OF
BANK'S RIGHTS HEREUNDER, AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO, AND WAIVES NOTICE OF THE
RELEASE WITH OR WITHOUT CONSIDERATION OF ANY COLLATERAL.

     The loan evidenced hereby has been made and this Note has been delivered at
the Bank's main office and shall be governed and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Illinois, in which state it shall be performed, and
shall be binding upon the Undersigned and its successors and assigns. Wherever
possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to
be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note
shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be
severable, and be deemed ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Note.

     The Undersigned represents and warrants to Bank that the execution and
delivery of this Note has been duly authorized by resolutions heretofore adopted
by its Board of Directors in accordance with law and its bylaws, that said
resolutions have not been amended nor rescinded, are in full force and effect
and that the officers executing and delivering this Note for and on behalf of
the Undersigned are duly authorized to so act. The Bank, in extending financial
accommodations to the Undersigned, is expressly acting and relying upon the
aforesaid representations and warranties.

     The Undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the lending relationship
hereby created with the Bank has been conducted on an open and arm's length
basis in which no fiduciary relationship exists and that the Undersigned has not
relied and is not relying on any such fiduciary relationship in consummating the
loan evidenced by this Note.

     The Undersigned has reviewed the areas within its business and operations
which could be adversely affected by, and has developed or is developing a
program to address on a timely basis, the "Year 2000 Problem" (that is, the risk
that computer applications used by the Undersigned may be unable to recognize
and perform properly date-sensitive functions involving certain dates prior to
and any date after December 31, 1999), and has made related appropriate inquiry
of material suppliers and vendors. Based on such review and program, the
Undersigned believes that the Year 2000 Problem will not have a material adverse
effect on the Undersigned. From time to time, at the request of the Bank, the
Undersigned shall provide to the Bank such updated information or documentation
as is requested regarding the status of the Undersigned's efforts to address the
Year 2000 Problem.

     This Note is issued in substitution for and replacement of, but not in
repayment of, that certain Revolving Note in the principal amount of
$15,000,000, dated May 1, 1998, made by the Undersigned payable to the order of
the Bank, and is not and shall not be deemed a novation therefor.

     As used herein, all provisions shall include the masculine, feminine,
neuter, singular and plural thereof, wherever the context and facts require such
construction and in particular the word "Undersigned" shall be so construed.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Undersigned has executed this Replacement Revolving
Note on the date above set forth.
