Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending or,
to  the  knowledge  of Borrower's Responsible Officers, threatened by or against
Borrower  or any Subsidiary  in which a likely adverse decision could reasonably
be  expected  to  cause  a  Material  Adverse  Change.

day  period  or  cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such
ten  (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable
time,  then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not
in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within

gives  the  third  party  the  right  to  accelerate  any Indebtedness exceeding
$100,000  or  that  could  cause  a  Material  Adverse  Change;

JUDGMENTS.

If  a money judgment(s) in the aggregate of at least $50,000 is rendered against

BANK'S  RIGHTS  AND  REMEDIES
-----------------------------

RIGHTS  AND  REMEDIES.

When  an  Event  of  Default  occurs  and  continues Bank may, without notice or
demand,  do  any  or  all  of  the  following:

     (r) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of
Default  described  in  Section 0 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and
payable  without  any  action  by  Bank);

     (s)  Stop  advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit under
this  Agreement  or  under  any  other  agreement  between  Borrower  and  Bank;

     (t)  Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for
amounts,  on  terms  and  in  any  order  that  Bank  considers  advisable;

     (u)  Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable
to  protect  its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will assemble the
Collateral  if  Bank requires and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may
enter  premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of
any  part  of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien
which  appears  to  be  prior  or  superior to its security interest and pay all
expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its
premises,  without  charge,  to  exercise  any  of  Bank's  rights  or remedies;

     (v) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower with
Bank  or its Affiliate it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for
the  credit  or  the  account  of  Borrower;

     (w)  Ship,  reclaim,  recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for
sale,  advertise  for  sale,  and  sell  the  Collateral.  Bank  is  granted  a
non-exclusive,  royalty-free  license  or  other  right  to use, without charge,
Borrower's  labels,  Patents,  Copyrights,  rights  of  use  of  any name, trade
secrets,  trade names, Trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
similar  property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of,
advertising  for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank's
exercise  of its rights under this Section, Borrower's rights under all licenses
and  all  franchise  agreements  inure  to  Bank's  benefit;  and

     (x)  Dispose  of  the  Collateral  according  to  the  Code.

POWER  OF  ATTORNEY.

Effective  only  when  an  Event  of  Default  occurs  and  continues,  Borrower
irrevocably  appoints  Bank  as  its lawful attorney to:  (i) endorse Borrower's
name  on  any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower's
name  on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account
debtors,  (iii)  make,  settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower's insurance
policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly
with  account  debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and
(v)  transfer  the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code
permits.  Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower's name on any
documents  necessary  to  perfect  or  continue  the  perfection of any security
interest  regardless  of  whether  an  Event  of  Default  has occurred.  Bank's
appointment as Borrower's attorney in fact, and all of Bank's rights and powers,
coupled  with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully
repaid  and  performed  and  Bank's  obligation  to  provide  Credit  Extensions
terminates.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>
ACCOUNTS  COLLECTION.

When  an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any Person owing
Borrower money of Bank's security interest in the funds and verify the amount of
the  Account.  Borrower  must  collect  all  payments  in trust for Bank and, if
requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form received
from  the  account  debtor,  with  proper  endorsements  for  deposit.

BANK  EXPENSES.

If  Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to
third  persons,  Bank  may  make  all or part of the payment or obtain insurance
policies  required  in  Section  0,  and take any action under the policies Bank
deems  prudent.  Any  amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due
and  payable,  bearing  interest  at the then applicable rate and secured by the
Collateral.  No  payments  by  Bank  are  deemed  an  agreement  to make similar
payments  in  the  future  or  Bank's  waiver  of  any  Event  of  Default.

BANK'S  LIABILITY  FOR  COLLATERAL.

If  Bank  complies  with  reasonable  banking  practices and the Code, it is not
liable for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the
Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or
default  of  any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person.  Borrower bears
all  risk  of  loss,  damage  or  destruction  of  the  Collateral.

REMEDIES  CUMULATIVE.

Bank's  rights  and  remedies  under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all
other  agreements  are  cumulative.  Bank  has  all rights and remedies provided
under  the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is
not  an  election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing
waiver.  Bank's  delay  is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is
effective  unless  signed  by  Bank  and then is only effective for the specific
instance  and  purpose  for  which  it  was  given.

DEMAND  WAIVER.

Borrower  waives  demand,  notice  of default or dishonor, notice of payment and
nonpayment,  notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise,
settlement,  extension,  or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel
paper,  and  guarantees  held  by  Bank  on  which  Borrower  is  liable.

agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by an overnight
delivery  service, by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,

     FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned,  LIFECELL  CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation  ("Borrower") promises to pay to the order of Silicon Valley Bank, a
California-chartered  bank  ("Bank"),  at  such  place  as the holder hereof may

principal  amount  of  all  advances  ("Advances")  made  by Bank to Borrower in
accordance  with  the  terms  and  conditions of the Loan and Security Agreement
between  Borrower  and Bank of even date herewith (as amended from time to time,
the  "Loan  Agreement"), up to a maximum principal amount of Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000)  ("Principal  Sum"),  or  so  much  thereof  as  may be advanced or
readvanced  and  remains  unpaid.  Borrower  shall  also  pay  interest  on  the
aggregate  unpaid  principal  amount  of  such  Advances,  as  follows:

     Commencing  as of the date hereof and continuing until repayment in full of
all  sums  due  hereunder,  the  unpaid Principal Sum shall bear interest at the
variable  rate  of  interest,  per annum, most recently announced by Bank as its
"prime  rate,"  whether  or not such announced rate is the lowest rate available
from  Bank  (the  "Prime  Rate"), plus three quarters of one percent (0.75%) per
annum.  The  rate  of  interest charged under this Note shall change immediately
and  contemporaneously  with any change in the Prime Rate.  All interest payable
under  the terms of this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
and  the  actual  number  of  days  elapsed.

     The  unpaid  Principal  Sum,  together with interest thereon at the rate or
rates  provided  above,  shall  be  payable  as  follows:

          (a)  Interest  only  on  the  unpaid principal amount shall be due and
payable  monthly  in arrears, commencing February 1, 2003, and continuing on the
first  day  of  each  calendar  month  thereafter  to  maturity;  and

          (b)  Unless  sooner  paid,  the  unpaid  Principal  Sum, together with
interest  accrued  and  unpaid  thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the
Revolving  Maturity  Date.

     The  fact  that  the  balance hereunder may be reduced to zero from time to
time  pursuant  to the Loan Agreement will not affect the continuing validity of
this  Note  or  the  Loan  Agreement,  and  the  balance may be increased to the
Principal  Sum  after any such reduction to zero.  Borrower shall have the right
to  prepay  any  Advances  in whole, or in part, at any time, without penalty or
premium.  At  the  time of any prepayment, Borrower must pay, on the date of the
prepayment  (A)  all  unpaid accrued interest to the date of the prepayment; and
(B)  all  other  sums,  if any, that shall have become due and payable under the
Loan  Documents.

     Borrower  further agrees that, if any payment made by Borrower or any other
person  is  applied  to  this  Note  and  is  at  any  time annulled, set aside,
rescinded,  invalidated,  declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise
required  to  be  refunded  or repaid, or the proceeds of any property hereafter
securing  this  Note is required to be returned by Bank to Borrower, its estate,
trustee,  receiver  or  any  other  party,  including,  without limitation, such
Borrower,  under  any  bankruptcy  law,  state  or  federal  law,  common law or
equitable  cause,  then,  to the extent of such payment or repayment, Borrower's
liability  hereunder  (and  any  lien,  security  interest  or  other collateral

                                      -24-
<PAGE>
securing  such liability) shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully
as  if  such  payment  had  never been made, or, if prior thereto any such lien,
security  interest  or  other collateral hereafter securing Borrower's liability
hereunder  shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation
or  surrender,  this Note (and such lien, security interest or other collateral)
shall  be  reinstated  in  full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or
surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the
obligations  of  Borrower in respect of the amount of such payment (or any lien,
security  interest  or  other  collateral  securing  such  obligation).

     This  Note  is  the  "Revolving  Promissory  Note"  described  in  the Loan
Agreement,  to  which  reference is hereby made for a more complete statement of

all  payments  at  any  time  hereafter  received  by  Bank from or on behalf of

exclusive  right  to  apply  any  and all such payments against the then due and
owing  obligations  of  Borrower as Bank may deem advisable. In the absence of a
specific  determination  by  Bank  with  respect  thereto, all payments shall be
applied  in the following order: (a) then due and payable fees and expenses; (b)
then  due  and payable interest payments and mandatory prepayments; and (c) then
due  and  payable  principal  payments  and  optional  prepayments.

     Bank  is  hereby  authorized  by  Borrower  to  endorse on Bank's books and

or  prepayment  of  principal  of  each  such Advance received by Bank; it being
understood,  however, that failure to make any such endorsement (or any error in
notation)  shall not affect the obligations of Borrower with respect to Advances
made  hereunder,  and  payments  of  principal  by Borrower shall be credited to
Borrower  notwithstanding  the  failure  to  make  a  notation (or any errors in
notation)  thereof  on  such  books  and  records.

the  terms  and  conditions  of  any  of  the  other  Loan  Documents.

     Upon  the  occurrence  of  an  Event of Default, at the option of Bank, all
amounts  payable  by  Borrower  to  Bank  under  the  terms  of  this Note shall
immediately  become  due  and  payable  by  Borrower  to  Bank without notice to
Borrower or any other person, and Bank shall have all of the rights, powers, and
remedies available under the terms of this Note, any of the other Loan Documents
and  all  applicable  laws.  Borrower  and  all endorsers, guarantors, and other
parties  who may now or in the future be primarily or secondarily liable for the
payment  of  the  indebtedness  evidenced  by  this  Note hereby severally waive
presentment,  protest  and  demand,  notice  of protest, notice of demand and of
dishonor  and non-payment of this Note and expressly agree that this Note or any

                                      -25-
<PAGE>
payment hereunder may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting
the  liability  of  Borrower,  guarantors  and  endorsers.

     Borrower  promises to pay all costs and expenses of collection of this Note
and  to  pay all reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in such collection, whether
or  not there is a suit or action, or in any suit or action to collect this Note
or  in any appeal thereof.  Borrower waives presentment, demand, protest, notice
of  protest,  notice  of  dishonor,  notice of nonpayment, and any and all other
notices  and  demands  in  connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance
default  or  enforcement  of  this  Note,  as well as any applicable statutes of
limitations.  No delay by Bank in exercising  any power or right hereunder shall
operate  as  a  waiver  of any power or right.  Time is of the essence as to all
obligations  hereunder.

     This  Note is issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement, which shall govern the
rights  and  obligations  of Borrower with respect to all obligations hereunder.

     Borrower  acknowledges  and  agrees that this Note shall be governed by the

UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF
COMPETENT  JURISDICTION  IN  THE  STATE  OF  NEW  YORK  IN  ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
