in lien priority only to those Permitted Liens that are expressly entitled to
such priority over the security interests of Silicon by operation of law or by
written subordination agreement duly executed and delivered by Silicon in favor
of the holders of such Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend
Silicon and the Collateral against all claims *** of others.

     (c) In the event that Borrower shall at any time after the date hereof have
any commercial tort claims against others, which it is asserting or intends to
assert, and in which the potential recovery exceeds * $100,000, Borrower shall
promptly notify Silicon thereof in writing and provide Silicon with such
information regarding the same as Silicon shall * request (unless providing such
information would waive the Borrower's attorney-client privilege). Such
notification to Silicon shall constitute a grant of a security interest in the
commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof to Silicon, and Borrower shall
execute and deliver all such documents and take all such actions as Silicon
shall ** request in connection therewith.

     (d) None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property
in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture *. Borrower is not
and will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the
lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now
prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's
right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral
is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest, Borrower
shall, whenever ** requested by Silicon, use its *** best efforts to cause such
third party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to Silicon,
such waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify in its good faith
business judgment. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply
with all material terms of, any lease of real property where any of the
Collateral now or in the future may be located.

any such statement provided to Silicon and the date hereof, there has been no
Material Adverse Change.

filed, and will timely file, all required tax returns and reports *, and
Borrower has timely paid, and will timely pay, all foreign, federal, state and
local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions now or in the future owed
by Borrower **. Borrower may, however, defer payment of any contested Taxes,
provided that Borrower (i) in good faith contests Borrower's obligation to pay
the Taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and
conducted, (ii) notifies Silicon in writing of the commencement of, and any
material development in, the proceedings ***, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any
other steps required to keep the contested Taxes from becoming a lien upon any
of the Collateral. Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for
any of Borrower's prior tax years which could result in additional Taxes
becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid, and shall continue to
pay all amounts necessary to fund all present and future pension, profit sharing
and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has
not and will not withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete
termination of, or permit the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any
such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of
Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or
its successors or any other governmental agency.

foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to Borrower,

Schedule, on Silicon's standard forms; provided, however, that Borrower's
failure to execute and deliver the same shall not affect or limit Silicon's
security interest and other rights in all of Borrower's Accounts, nor shall

Silicon's security interest and other rights therein. If requested by Silicon *,
Borrower shall furnish Silicon with copies (or, at Silicon's request, originals)

CONTINUATION OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, TO APPLY ALL SUCH PAYMENTS ON, AND PROCEEDS
OF, ACCOUNTS AND OTHER PROCEEDS OF COLLATERAL (INCLUDING AMOUNTS IN THE DOMINION
ACCOUNT) TO THE OBLIGATIONS IN SUCH ORDER AS SILICON SHALL DETERMINE. AS USED
HEREIN, THE TERM "DESIGNATED AMOUNT" MEANS, AS OF ANY DATE OF DETERMINATION, THE
SUM OF (y) $4,000,000 PLUS (z) THE AGGREGATE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT OF OBLIGATIONS
(IF ANY).

   4.5. REMITTANCE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds arising from the disposition of any
Collateral shall * be delivered, in kind, by Borrower to Silicon in the original
form in which received by Borrower not later than the following Business Day

price of $25,000 or less (for all such transactions in any fiscal year).
Borrower agrees that it will not commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of
Borrower's other funds or property, but will hold such proceeds separate and
apart from such other funds and property and in an express trust for Silicon.
Nothing in this Section limits the restrictions on disposition of Collateral set
forth elsewhere in this Agreement.

   * : (a) IN THE CASE OF MONETARY PROCEEDS (SUBJECT TO SECTION 4.4),

FOLLOWING SENTENCE AND ALL OTHER APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT
RELATIVE TO COLLATERAL.

   4.6 DISPUTES. Borrower shall notify Silicon promptly * of all disputes or
claims ** relating to Accounts. Borrower shall not forgive (completely or
partially), compromise or settle any Account for less than payment in full, or
agree to do any of the foregoing, except that Borrower may do so, provided that:
(i) Borrower does so in good faith, in a commercially reasonable manner, in the
ordinary course of business, and in arm's length transactions, which are
reported to Silicon on the regular reports provided to Silicon; *** (ii) no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing ; and (iii) taking
into account all such discounts, settlements and forgiveness, the total
outstanding Loans will not exceed the Credit Limit.

SET OF MONTHLY REPORTS REQUIRED UNDER SECTION 6 OF THE SCHEDULE)

   4.7 RETURNS. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if
any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to Borrower, Borrower shall promptly
determine the reason for such return and promptly issue a credit memorandum to
the Account Debtor in the appropriate amount. In the event any attempted return
occurs after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
Borrower shall hold the returned Inventory in trust for Silicon, and immediately
* notify Silicon of the return of the Inventory.

   * PROMPTLY (AND IN ANY EVENT NOT LATER THAN CONCURRENTLY WITH THE DELIVERY OF

respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to
the Accounts, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of
Borrower or Silicon or such other name as Silicon may choose.

   4.9 NO LIABILITY. Silicon shall not be responsible or liable for any shortage
or discrepancy in, damage to, or loss or destruction of, any goods, the sale or
other disposition of which gives rise to an Account, or for any error, act,
omission, or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, failure to settle,
collection or failure to collect any Account, or for settling any Account in
good faith for less than the full amount thereof, nor shall Silicon be deemed to
be responsible for any of Borrower's obligations under any contract or agreement
giving rise to an Account. Nothing herein shall, however, relieve Silicon from
liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

5.  ADDITIONAL DUTIES OF BORROWER.

   5.1  FINANCIAL AND OTHER COVENANTS. Borrower shall at all times comply
with the financial and other covenants set forth in the Schedule.

   5.2 INSURANCE. Borrower shall, at all times insure all of the tangible
personal property Collateral and carry such other business insurance, with

may reasonably require and that are customary and in accordance with standard
practices for Borrower's industry and locations, and Borrower shall provide
evidence of such insurance to Silicon. All such insurance policies shall name
Silicon as an additional insured and loss payee, and shall contain a lenders
loss payee endorsement in form reasonably acceptable to Silicon. Upon receipt of

insurance proceeds were paid ++. Silicon may require reasonable assurance that
the insurance proceeds so released will be so used. If Borrower fails to provide

information obtained in any such inspection or audit, but Silicon shall have the
right to disclose any such information to its auditors, regulatory agencies, and
attorneys, and pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process. ** The foregoing
inspections and audits shall be at Borrower's expense and the charge therefor
shall be $750 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent
Silicon's then current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses. In the event Borrower and Silicon schedule an audit more
than 10 days in advance, and Borrower seeks to reschedules the audit with less
than 10 days written notice to Silicon, then (without limiting any of Silicon's
rights or remedies), Borrower shall pay Silicon a cancellation fee of $1,000
plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Silicon, to compensate Silicon for
the anticipated costs and expenses of the cancellation.

CONDITION OF BORROWER (IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT AUDITS TAKING PLACE AT ONE OR
MORE LOCATIONS OF BORROWER DURING SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME OVERALL EXAMINATION
PERIOD SHALL CONSTITUTE BUT A SINGLE AUDIT FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SENTENCE).

6.   TERM.

   6.1  MATURITY DATE. This Agreement shall continue in effect until the
maturity date set forth on the Schedule (the "Maturity Date"), subject to
Section 6.3 below.

   6.2 EARLY TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Maturity
Date as follows: (i) by Borrower, effective three Business Days after written
notice of termination is given to Silicon; or (ii) by Silicon at any time after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without
notice, effective immediately. If this Agreement is terminated by Borrower or by
Silicon under this Section 6.2, Borrower shall pay to Silicon a termination fee
in an amount equal to * two percent (2.0%) of the Maximum Credit Limit, provided
that no termination fee shall be charged if the credit facility hereunder is
replaced with a new facility from another division of Silicon Valley Bank. The
termination fee shall be due and payable on the effective date of termination
and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate
applicable to any of the Obligations.

   6.3 PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. On the Maturity Date or on any earlier effective
date of termination, Borrower shall pay and perform in full all Obligations,
whether evidenced by installment notes or otherwise, and whether or not all or
any part of such Obligations are otherwise then due and payable. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if on the Maturity Date, or on any
earlier effective date of termination, there are any outstanding Letters of
Credit issued by Silicon or issued by another institution based upon an
application, guarantee, indemnity or similar agreement on the part of Silicon,
then on such date Borrower shall provide to Silicon cash collateral in an amount
equal to * 105% of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all
interest, fees and cost due or to become due in connection therewith (as
estimated by Silicon in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the
Obligations relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to Silicon's then
standard form cash pledge agreement. Notwithstanding any termination of this
Agreement, all of Silicon's security interests in all of the Collateral and all
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full; provided that
Silicon may, in its sole discretion, refuse to make any further ** Loans after
termination. No termination shall in any way affect or impair any right or
remedy of Silicon, nor shall any such termination relieve Borrower of any
Obligation to Silicon, until all of the Obligations have been paid and performed
in full. Upon payment and performance in full of all the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement, Silicon shall promptly terminate its financing
statements with respect to the Borrower and deliver to Borrower such other
documents as may be required to fully terminate Silicon's security interests.

due, payable, and performable, notwithstanding any deferred or installment

for that purpose Borrower hereby authorizes Silicon without judicial process to
enter onto any of Borrower's premises without interference to search for, take
possession of, keep, store, or remove any of the Collateral, and remain on the
premises or cause a custodian to remain on the premises in exclusive control
thereof, without charge for so long as Silicon deems it necessary, in its good
faith business judgment, in order to complete the enforcement of its rights
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that should
Silicon seek to take possession of any of the Collateral by court process,
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives: (i) any bond and any surety or security
relating thereto required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as an incident

the Collateral and make it available to Silicon at places designated by Silicon
which are reasonably convenient to Silicon and Borrower, and to remove the
Collateral to such locations as Silicon may deem advisable; (e) Complete the
processing, manufacturing or repair of any Collateral prior to a disposition
thereof and, for such purpose and for the purpose of removal, Silicon shall have
the right to use Borrower's premises, vehicles, hoists, lifts, cranes, and other

dispose of any of the Collateral, in its condition at the time Silicon obtains
possession of it or after further manufacturing, processing or repair, at one or
more public and/or private sales, in lots or in bulk, for cash, exchange or

without notice other than oral announcement at the time scheduled for sale.
Silicon shall have the right to conduct such disposition on Borrower's premises
without charge, for such time or times as Silicon deems reasonable, or on
Silicon's premises, or elsewhere and the Collateral need not be located at the
place of disposition. Silicon may directly or through any affiliated company
purchase or lease any Collateral at any such public disposition, and if

permissible under applicable law, at any private disposition. Any sale or other
disposition of Collateral shall not relieve Borrower of any liability Borrower
may have if any Collateral is defective as to title or physical condition or
otherwise at the time of sale; (g) Demand payment of, and collect any Accounts
and General Intangibles comprising Collateral and, in connection therewith,
Borrower irrevocably authorizes Silicon to endorse or sign Borrower's name on
all collections, receipts, instruments and other documents, to take possession
of and open mail addressed to Borrower and remove therefrom payments made with
respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Silicon's
good faith business judgment, to grant extensions of time to pay, compromise
claims and settle Accounts and the like for less than face value; (h) Offset
against any sums in any of Borrower's general, special or other Deposit Accounts
with Silicon against any or all of the Obligations; and (i) Demand and receive
possession of any of Borrower's federal and state income tax returns and the
books and records utilized in the preparation thereof or referring thereto. All
reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses, costs, liabilities and obligations
incurred by Silicon with respect to the foregoing shall be added to and become
part of the Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear interest at a
rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
Without limiting any of Silicon's rights and remedies, from and after the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest rate
applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional four percent
per annum (the "Default Rate").

   7.3 STANDARDS FOR DETERMINING COMMERCIAL REASONABLENESS. Borrower and Silicon
agree that a sale or other disposition (collectively, "sale") of any Collateral
which complies with the following standards will conclusively be deemed to be
commercially reasonable *: (i) Notice of the sale is given to Borrower at least
ten days prior to the sale, and, in the case of a public sale, notice of the
sale is published at least five ** days before the sale in a newspaper of
general circulation in the county where the sale is to be conducted; (ii) Notice
of the sale describes the collateral in general, non-specific terms; (iii) The
sale is conducted at a place designated by Silicon, with or without the
Collateral being present; (iv) The sale commences at any time between 8:00 a.m.
and 6:00 p.m; (v) Payment of the purchase price in cash or by cashier's check or
wire transfer is required; (vi) With respect to any sale of any of the
Collateral, Silicon may (but is not obligated to) direct any prospective
purchaser to ascertain directly from Borrower any and all information concerning
the same. Silicon shall be free to employ other methods of noticing and selling
the Collateral, in its discretion, if they are commercially reasonable.

   * WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ASPECTS OF SUCH SALE

   ** TEN

   7.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, without limiting Silicon's other rights and remedies, Borrower
grants to Silicon an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest,

attorneys or agents) at any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or
without notice to Borrower, and at Borrower's expense, to do any or all of the
following, in Borrower's name or otherwise, but Silicon agrees that if it
exercises any right hereunder, it will do so in good faith and in a commercially
reasonable manner: (a) Execute on behalf of Borrower any documents that Silicon
may, in its good faith business judgment, deem advisable in order to perfect and
maintain Silicon's security interest in the Collateral, or in order to exercise
a right of Borrower or Silicon, or in order to fully consummate all the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents;
(b) Execute on behalf of Borrower, any invoices relating to any Account, any
draft against any Account Debtor and any notice to any Account Debtor, any proof

other lien; (c) Take control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of

received by Silicon; (e) Pay, contest or settle any lien, charge, encumbrance,
security interest and adverse claim in or to any of the Collateral, or any
judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge
the same; (f) Grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle
Accounts and General Intangibles for less than face value and execute all

part of the Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at
a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
In no event shall Silicon's rights under the foregoing power of attorney or any
of Silicon's other rights under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that
Silicon is in control of the business, management or properties of Borrower.

   7.5 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds realized as the result of any sale
of the Collateral shall be applied by Silicon first to the reasonable costs,
expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys' fees incurred by Silicon in
the exercise of its rights under this Agreement, second to the interest due upon
any of the Obligations, and third to the principal of the Obligations, in such
order as Silicon shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be
paid to Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall
remain liable to Silicon for any deficiency. If, Silicon, in its good faith
business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or
other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Silicon
shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its good faith business
judgment, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of purchase
price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by
Silicon of the cash therefor.

   7.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in
this Agreement, Silicon shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a
secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code and under all other
applicable laws, and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the
future entered into between Silicon and Borrower, and all of such rights and
remedies are cumulative and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by
Silicon of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an
election, nor bar Silicon from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any
other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Silicon to exercise any rights
or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies
shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been
fully paid in cash and otherwise performed and this Agreement has been
terminated.

deemed received on the next Business Day. Silicon shall not, however, be
required to credit Borrower's account for the amount of any item of payment
which is unsatisfactory to Silicon in its good faith business judgment, and
Silicon may charge Borrower's loan account for the amount of any item of payment
which is returned to Silicon unpaid.

   * (EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO WIRE TRANSFERS, WHICH SHALL BE DEEMED APPLIED BY
SILICON ON ACCOUNT OF THE OBLIGATIONS THE SAME BUSINESS DAY AS DEEMED RECEIVED
BY SILICON)

   ** (CALIFORNIA TIME)

   9.2 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. All payments with respect to the Obligations may
be applied, and in Silicon's good faith business judgment reversed and
re-applied, to the Obligations, in such order and manner as Silicon shall
determine in its good faith business judgment.

   9.3 CHARGES TO ACCOUNTS. Silicon may, in its discretion, require that
Borrower pay monetary Obligations in cash to Silicon, or charge them to
Borrower's Loan account, in which event they will bear interest at the same rate
applicable to the Loans. Silicon may also, in its discretion, charge any
monetary Obligations to Borrower's Deposit Accounts maintained with Silicon.

   9.4 MONTHLY ACCOUNTINGS. Silicon shall provide Borrower monthly with an
account of advances, charges, expenses and payments made pursuant to this
Agreement. Such account shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on

rendered, describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions.

affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and
effect.

   9.7 INTEGRATION. This Agreement and such other written agreements, documents
and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith are the final, entire
and complete agreement between Borrower and Silicon and supersede all prior and
contemporaneous negotiations and oral representations and agreements, all of
which are merged and integrated in this Agreement. There are no oral
understandings, representations or agreements between the parties which are not

   9.8 WAIVERS; INDEMNITY. The failure of Silicon at any time or times to
require Borrower to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall not waive or diminish any right of Silicon
later to demand and receive strict compliance therewith. Any waiver of any
default shall not waive or affect any other default, whether prior or
subsequent, and whether or not similar. None of the provisions of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or
knowledge of Silicon or its agents or employees, but only by a specific written
waiver signed by an authorized officer of Silicon and delivered to Borrower. *
Borrower waives the benefit of all statutes of limitations relating to any of
the Obligations or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and Borrower
waives demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of default or dishonor,
notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise, settlement, extension or
renewal of any commercial paper, instrument, account, General Intangible,
document or guaranty at any time held by Silicon on which Borrower is or may in
any way be liable, and notice of any action taken by Silicon, unless expressly
required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower hereby agrees to
indemnify Silicon and its affiliates, subsidiaries, parent, directors, officers,
employees, agents, and attorneys, and to hold them harmless from and against any
and all claims, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, actions, causes of
action, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), of
every kind, which they may sustain or incur based upon or arising out of any of
the Obligations, or any relationship or agreement between Silicon and Borrower,
or any other matter, relating to Borrower or the Obligations; provided that,
with respect to any indemnitee, this indemnity shall not extend to damages
proximately caused by the indemnitee's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the
indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall survive any termination of
this Agreement and shall for all purposes continue in full force and effect.

   * TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,

   9.9 NO LIABILITY FOR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE. Neither Silicon, nor any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Silicon shall be liable for any claims, demands, losses or
damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered by Borrower
or any other party through the ordinary negligence of Silicon, or any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other Person affiliated
with or representing Silicon, but nothing herein shall relieve Silicon from
liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

   9.10 AMENDMENT. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may not be waived
or amended, except in a writing executed by Borrower and a duly authorized
officer of Silicon.

   9.11  TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance by Borrower
of each and every obligation under this Agreement.

   9.12 ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS. Borrower shall reimburse Silicon for all
reasonable attorneys' fees and all filing, recording, search, title insurance,
appraisal, audit, and other reasonable costs incurred by Silicon, pursuant to,
or in connection with, or relating to this Agreement (whether or not a lawsuit
is filed), including, but not limited to, any reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs Silicon incurs in order to do the following: prepare and negotiate this
Agreement and all present and future documents relating to this Agreement;

Borrower's books and records; protect, obtain possession of, lease, dispose of,
or otherwise enforce Silicon's security interest in, the Collateral; and
otherwise represent Silicon in any litigation relating to Borrower. In
satisfying Borrower's obligation hereunder to reimburse Silicon for attorneys
fees, Borrower may, for convenience, issue checks directly to Silicon's
attorneys, Levy, Small & Lallas, but Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Levy,
Small & Lallas is representing only Silicon and not Borrower in connection with
this Agreement. If either Silicon or Borrower files any lawsuit against the
other predicated on a breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such
action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys' fees,
including (but not limited to) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
the enforcement of, execution upon or defense of any order, decree, award or
judgment. All attorneys' fees and costs to which Silicon may be entitled
pursuant to this Paragraph shall immediately become part of Borrower's
Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to
the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. *

APPLIED (IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH PROPOSAL LETTER) TO SILICON'S FEES, COSTS, AND
EXPENSES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO SUCH PROPOSAL LETTER AND
THIS AGREEMENT.

   9.13 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs,
beneficiaries and representatives of Borrower and Silicon; provided, however,
that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Silicon, and

                                        (including the entire unpaid principal
                                        balance of the Loan, plus all accrued
                                        and unpaid interest thereon) shall be
                                        due and payable, subject, however, to
                                        acceleration as otherwise set forth in
                                        this Agreement. No portion of the Loan
                                        may be reborrowed after being repaid.
                                        Interest on the Loan shall be paid
                                        monthly as provided in Section 1.2 of
                                        this Loan Agreement. Borrower shall have
                                        the right to prepay the Loan in whole or

                                        premium.

2.  INTEREST.

         INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2):

                                        A rate equal to the greater of (a) 6.50%
                                        per annum and (b) the sum of the (i)
                                        "Prime Rate" in effect from time to
                                        time, plus (ii) 2.25% per annum.
                                        Interest shall be calculated on the
                                        basis of a 360-day year for the actual
                                        number of days elapsed. "Prime Rate"
                                        means the rate announced from time to
                                        time by Silicon as its "prime rate;" it
                                        is a base rate upon which other rates
                                        charged by Silicon are based, and it is
                                        not necessarily the best rate available
                                        at Silicon. The interest rate applicable
                                        to the Obligations shall change on each
                                        date there is a change in the Prime
                                        Rate.

         MINIMUM MONTHLY
         INTEREST (Section 1.2):        n/a.

3.  FEES (Section 1.4):

         Loan Fee:                      $22,500, payable concurrently herewith.

         Non-Utilization Fee:           In the event, in any fiscal quarter of
                                        Borrower (or portion thereof commencing
                                        on the date hereof) through the quarter
                                        ending December 31, 2003), the original
                                        principal amount of the Loan funded on
                                        or before the last day of such quarter
                                        (the "Funded Amount"; it being
                                        understood that the Funded Amount shall
                                        equal zero at any time prior to the
                                        funding of the Loan) is less than the
                                        amount of the Maximum Credit Amount,
                                        Borrower shall pay Silicon a
                                        non-utilization fee in an amount equal
                                        to 0.25% per annum on the difference
                                        between the amount of the Maximum Credit
                                        Amount and the Funded Amount as of the
                                        last day of such fiscal quarter, which
                                        non-utilization fee shall be computed
                                        and paid quarterly, in arrears, on the
                                        first day of the following fiscal
                                        quarter.

which the Lessee may desire although neither party shall be under obligation to
do so.

     (c) The Lessee shall keep in good repair and free from obstructions or
encumbrances all surfaced roadways, walks, loading, unloading and parking areas
which are part of or which serve the Leased Premises; shall keep clear of dirt,
snow and ice all such roadways, walks and areas; shall remove snow and ice from
roof of the building on the Leased Premises when necessary; and shall keep the
exterior of the Leased Premises clean and neat, including cutting and proper
care of lawns and shrubbery.

                                       2

     (d)  The Lessee shall at its expense make any alterations or changes in the
Leased premises which may be necessary, which are caused by Lessee's type of
occupancy, to meet the regulations and standards promulgated and established
under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970.

     (e)  During the term of this lease, the Lessee shall be responsible for any
repairs or alterations to the leased premises deemed necessary by local, state
or federal officials, in order to meet compliance with any changes made, after
the commencement date of this lease, to any existing local, state or federal
regulations, as well as any new local, state or federal regulations made during
the term of this lease. Lessor shall be responsible for complying with any
required repairs or alterations to the Leased Premises with respect to any
changes to such regulations made prior to the commencement date of this Lease.

     (f)  During the term of this lease, in the event of a claim brought under
the Americans with Disabilities Act, Lessee shall be responsible for ensuring
satisfaction therewith, which are caused by Lessee's type of occupancy.

     In the event Lessee shall fail to perform its obligations hereunder (a
through f above) after ten (10) days written notice by Lessor, or in the event
of an emergency after an attempt by Lessor to give telephone notice to Lessee,
the Lessor may, at its option, perform the same and charge the Lessee the
reasonable expense of said obligation.

     SECTION 6 - IMPROVEMENTS BY LESSEE. The Lessee may make such alterations,
additions or improvements to the Leased Premises as it shall deem necessary or
desirable, provided (a) that no such alteration, addition or improvement shall
be made which would affect or change the structural character of the Leased
Premises without first obtaining the written consent and approval of the Lessor
before any work thereon shall be commenced and (b) the Lessee shall not, in any
event, commit, suffer or permit waste upon the Leased Premises. Lessee shall be
responsible for obtaining all necessary local, state and federal government
permits as may be necessary.

     SECTION 7 - REMOVAL OF IMPROVEMENTS. At the expiration of this Lease, or at
its earlier termination for any cause herein provided for, the Lessee may, and
provided the Lessor shall so direct in writing not less than thirty (30) days
prior to such termination or ten (10) days following such earlier termination,
the Lessee shall remove any alterations, additions and improvements to the
Leased Premises made by it during the term hereof, and shall restore the Leased
Premises to their condition as at the beginning of the term hereof, reasonable
wear and tear, taking by eminent domain and damage insurable under the standard
New Hampshire fire insurance policy with extended coverage excepted. If the
Lessee shall not exercise its option of removal, and if the Lessor shall not
give such written direction to the Lessee, all such alterations, additions and
improvements shall become and remain the property of the Lessor. If the Lessee
shall fail to remove the alterations, additions and improvements, which are
required hereunder to be removed, then the reasonable cost of removal of such
alterations, additions and improvements, if necessary, shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Lessee.

     SECTION 8 - MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT - TRADE FIXTURES. The Lessee agrees
that all machinery and equipment, and appurtenances thereto, installed in the
Leased Premises by it or by any employee, agent or subcontractor of the Lessee,
or by any subtenant of the Lessee, which cannot be removed from the Leased
Premises shall be and become part of the realty and shall be and become the
property of the Lessor and shall not be removed from the Leased Premises without
the written consent of the Lessor. The Lessor agrees that (a) all machinery and
equipment, and appurtenances thereto, installed in the Leased Premises by the
Lessee, or by any employee, agent or subcontractor of the Lessee, or by any
subtenant of the Lessee, which may be removed from the Leased Premises without

                                       3

<PAGE>
permanent and substantial damage to the Leased Premises and (b) all furniture,
furnishings and movable trade fixtures installed in the Leased Premises shall be
deemed to remain personal property and that all such machinery, equipment,
appurtenances, furniture, furnishings and movable trade fixtures of the Lessee
or of any employee, agent or subcontractor or subtenant of the Lessee, may be
removed prior to the expiration of this Lease or its earlier termination for any
cause herein provided for; but the Lessee shall repair any damage occasioned by
such removal and shall restore the facilities on the Leased Premises to their
condition as at the beginning of the term hereof, reasonable wear and tear,
taking by eminent domain, and damage insurable under the standard New Hampshire
fire insurance policy with extended coverage excepted. Any such property which
may be removed pursuant to the preceding sentence and which is not so removed
prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease may be removed from
the Leased Premises by the Lessor and stored for the account of the Lessee; and
if the Lessee shall fail to reclaim such property within sixty (60) days
following such expiration or earlier termination of this Lease such property
shall be deemed to have been abandoned by the Lessee, and may be appropriated,
sold, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by the Lessor without notice to the
Lessee and without obligation to account therefor. The Lessee shall pay to the
Lessor a reasonable cost incurred by the Lessor in removing, storing, selling,
destroying or otherwise disposing of any such property.

     Section 9 - Utilities. The Lessee shall provide and shall pay when due all
charges for water, gas, electricity, sewerage, heat, power and any other
services supplied to it at the Leased Premises.

     Section 10 - Use of Premises. (a) in its use of the Leased Premises, the
Lessee shall comply with all statutes, ordinances and regulations applicable to
the use thereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Zoning Ordinances of the City of Nashua, New Hampshire, the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, and the Hazardous Waste Management
Program of the State of New Hampshire (R.S.A. 147:48 et seq).
     (b) The Lessee shall not injure or deface the Leased Premises nor occupy or
use, or permit or suffer the Leased Premises or any part thereof to be occupied
or used, for any unlawful or illegal business, use or purpose, nor for any
business, use or purpose which is disreputable or extra-hazardous, nor in such
manner as to constitute a nuisance of any kind nor for any purpose nor in any
manner which would increase the premiums for fire insurance with extended
coverage for the Leased Premises. The Lessee shall, immediately upon discovery
of any such unlawful, illegal, disreputable or extra-hazardous use, take all
necessary steps, legal and equitable, to compel the discontinuance of such use
and to oust and remove any sublessee, occupants or other persons guilty of such
unlawful, illegal, disreputable or extra-hazardous use.
     (c) The Lessee shall procure any licenses or permits required by any use
of the Leased Premises by the Lessee.
     (d)  The Lessee shall indemnify and save the Lessor harmless from and
against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs and expenses, including
reasonable counsel fees, asserted by third parties and arising out of or by
reason of any breach or violation by the Lessee of the provisions of this
Section.

     Section 11 - Assignment - Sublease. The Lessee shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Lessor, assign this Lease or sublease the Leased
Premises, in whole or in part. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, provided Lessor shall be convinced that subtenant or assignee shall
have financial capacity to pay the rent hereunder. Notwithstanding any such
sublet or assignments, the obligations of Lessee hereunder shall not be released
by assignment or sublease and Lessee shall assign such assignment or sublease as
additional security for the performance of this lease.
     Notwithstanding anything provided herein, in the event of subtenancy or
assignment, Lessee shall provide Lessor with the

                                       4

<PAGE>
correct and updated name and mailing address of every assignee or subtenant and
the requirements if any of all Notice to Lessee in this lease shall be
sufficiently satisfied if forwarded in writing to the subtenant or assignee and
Lessee at the address given. In the event of Lessee's default hereunder, should
subtenant or assignee, at its option, cure such defect or default, the Lessee
shall not be relieved of future obligations hereunder.

SECTION 12 -- TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.  (a) The Lessee shall pay and discharge all
real estate taxes, betterment charges and levies, and charges and governmental
impositions, duties and discharges of like kind and nature, which or may during
the term of this Lease be charged, laid, levied or imposed upon or become a lien
or liens upon the Leased Premises or any part thereof, or upon any buildings or
appurtenances thereof, or any part thereof, or which may become due and payable
with respect thereto, and any and all taxes charged, laid or levied in addition
to the foregoing under or by virtue of any present or future laws, rules,
requirements, orders, directions, ordinances or regulations of the United States
of America, or of the state, county or city government, or of any other
municipal government or lawful authority whatsoever. The Lessee shall also be
responsible for the payment of any assessments for improvements; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that if any such assessment shall be payable in installments, the
Lessee shall not be required to pay any installment becoming due subsequent to
the termination of this Lease; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if any such
assessment shall be payable in a lump sum, the Lessee may submit to arbitration
in accordance with Section 24 hereof the question of the proportion of the
assessment which the Lessee should equitably be required to pay in the light of
the nature of the improvement, the remaining term of this Lease and the
existence of the option to renew set forth in Section 25 hereof. Unless required
by a mortgagee to make payments into an escrow account for taxes, the Lessee
shall, if so requested by the Lessor, pay the Lessor with each installment of
rent an amount equal to one twelfth of the real estate taxes for the current
year, if the amount thereof is known, or of such taxes for the prior year, if
the amount thereof for current year is not known. Such amounts shall be held in
escrow by the Lessor and utilized in partial or complete discharge of the
Lessee's obligations to pay such taxes on or before the date upon which interest
upon such taxes would otherwise start to accrue. If payments into an escrow
account for taxes shall not be required by a mortgagee or by the Lessor, (1) the
Lessee shall make the required payments directly to the appropriate taxing or
other governmental authorities, and (2) the Lessor shall forward all tax bills,
statements and charges to the Lessee in time sufficient to enable the Lessee to
pay the same without incurring interest or penalties and in time so that the
Lessee may contest the same if it so desires. The Lessee shall also punctually
pay and discharge all taxes which shall or may during the term of this Lease be
charged, laid, levied or imposed upon or become a lien upon the stock in trade
or other personal property of the Lessee attached to or used in connection with
the Lessee's business conducted on the premises. Nothing herein contained shall
require the Lessee to pay the Lessor's income or business profits taxes or any
taxes on the rents reserved to the Lessor hereunder or franchise taxes or estate
taxes or transfer taxes. Property taxes for the tax year in which the term
hereof commences and for the tax year in which the term hereof terminates shall
be apportioned between the Lessor and the Lessee in accordance with the number
of months or major fraction thereof during which each party shall be in
possession of the Leased Premises during such tax years.

     (b)  The Lessee shall have the right to contest or review (in the name of
the Lessee, or of the Lessor, or both, as the Lessee shall elect) by
appropriate proceedings (which if instituted shall be conducted promptly at the
Lessee's own expense free of all expense to the Lessor) any tax, charge or
other governmental imposition aforementioned upon condition that before
instituting any such proceeding the Lessee shall pay (under protest) such tax,
charge or other governmental imposition aforementioned, or furnish

                                       5
<PAGE>
to the Lessor a surety company performance bond in a company acceptable to the
Lessor or other security satisfactory to the Lessor sufficient to cover the
amount of the contested item or items with interest for the period which such
proceedings may reasonably be expected to take and costs securing the payment of
such contested item or items and all interest and costs in connection therewith
when finally determined. Notwithstanding the furnishing of any such bond or
security, the Lessee shall pay all such items before the date when the Leased
Premises or any part thereof would under applicable law be forfeited. The Lessor
shall timely file the annual inventory required by Chapter 74:7 of the Revised
Statutes Annotated of New Hampshire the filing of which, by virtue of Chapter
76:16 of such revised Statutes Annotated, is a condition precedent to tax
abatement.

     (c)  The Lessor, at its option may, but shall not be obligated to, contest
or review by any appropriate proceedings, and at the Lessor's expense, any tax,
charge or other governmental imposition aforementioned which shall not be
contested or reviewed as aforesaid by the Lessee, and unless the Lessee shall
promptly join with the Lessor in such contest or review, the Lessor shall be
entitled to receive and retain any refund payable by the taxing authorities with
respect thereto.

     SECTION 13 -- MECHANIC'S LIEN. In the event of the filing in Hillsborough
County Registry of Deeds of any notice of a builder's, supplier's or mechanic's
lien on the Leased Premises arising out of any work performed by or on behalf of
the Lessee, the Lessee shall either cause such lien to be discharged or released
or shall initiate legal proceedings to test the validity of the lien claimed;
and if the Lessee shall initiate legal proceedings to test the validity of the
lien, the Lessee shall cause such lien to be discharged or released by the
posting of bond or otherwise and shall completely indemnify the Lessor against
any such claim or lien and all costs of such proceedings wherein the validity of
such lien is contested by the Lessee.

     SECTION 14 -- EMINENT DOMAIN. In the event that the Leased Premises shall
be lawfully condemned or taken by any public authority either in their entirety
or in such proportion that they are no longer suitable for the intended use by
the Lessee, this Lease shall automatically terminate without further act of
either party hereto on the date when possession of the Leased Premises shall be
taken by such public authority, and each party hereto shall be relieved of any
further obligation to the other except that the Lessee shall be liable for and
shall promptly pay to the Lessor any rent then in arrears or the Lessor shall
promptly rebate to the Lessee a pro rata portion of any rent paid in advance. In
the event the proportion of the Leased Premises so condemned or taken is such
that they are still suitable for the intended use by the Lessee, this Lease
shall continue in effect in accordance with its terms and a portion of the rent
shall abate equal to the proportion of the rental value of the Leased Premises
so condemned or taken. In either of the above events, the award for the property
so condemned or taken shall be apportioned between the Lessor and the Lessee so
that the Lessor shall receive the then value of his reversionary interest in the
Leased Premises plus the then value of the future rents due under the terms of
this Lease if such taking had not occurred, and the Lessee shall receive the
then value of its leasehold interest including the then value of any mechanical
installations, equipment and appurtenances, if any, constructed or installed by
the Lessee after the beginning of the term hereof.

     SECTION 15 -- LIABILITY. The Lessor shall not be liable to the Lessee for
any injury or harm to any person occurring on or about the Leased Premises or
for injury or damage to the Leased Premises or to any property of the Lessee or
to any property of any third person, firm, association or corporation on or
about the Leased Premises except such as may be caused by the willful negligent
act of the Lessor, his servants or agents, and the Lessee shall

                                       6
<PAGE>
indemnify and save the Lessor harmless from and against any and all liability
and damages and from and against any and all suits, claims and demands of any
kind or nature, by and on behalf of any person, firm, association or
corporation, arising out of or based upon any incident, occurrence, injury or
damage which shall or may happen on or about the Leased Premises and from and
against any matter or thing growing out of the condition, maintenance, repair,
alteration, use, occupation of the Leased Premises or the installation of any
property therein or the removal of any property therefrom except such as may be
caused by the willful negligent act of the Lessor, his servants or agents.

     SECTION 16 -- LIABILITY INSURANCE. The Lessee shall throughout the term
hereof procure and carry at its expense comprehensive liability insurance on the
Leased Premises with an insurance company authorized to do business in New
Hampshire and acceptable to the Lessor. Such insurance shall be carried in the
name of and for the benefit of the Lessee and the Lessor, shall be written on an
"occurrence" basis; and shall provide coverage of at least $2,000,000 in case of
death of or injury to one person; $3,000,000 in case of death of or injury to
more than one person in the same occurrence; and at least $100,000 in case of
loss, destruction or damage to property. A single limit policy or policies in
the total amount of $3,000,000 shall be deemed compliance with the preceding
sentence. The Lessee shall comply with requirements of the Boilers Unfired
Pressured Vessels Law (RSA 157-a), if applicable, and in such event the policies
referred to above shall contain an endorsement providing pressure vessels
insurance coverage and naming the Lessor as additional insured. The Lessee shall
furnish to the Lessor a certificate of such insurance which shall provide that
the insurance indicated therein shall not be cancelled without at least ten (10)
days written notice to the Lessor. At the date of each adjustment to the base
rent as provided for in Section 26 hereof, Lessee agrees to increase the
insurance coverages provided for herein, if requested to do so by the Lessor, to
an amount mutually agreeable to Lessor and Lessee which is then adequate to
protect against increases in insurance awards whether caused by inflation or
otherwise. Should the parties be unable to agree on an amount, the matter shall
be the subject of arbitration in accordance with Section 24 hereof.

     SECTION 17 -- ALL RISK INSURANCE. (a) The Lessor shall procure and continue
in force during the term hereof such amounts as in its judgment are adequate of
All Risk Replacement Cost Insurance with Agreed Amount Endorsement (the latter
to be adjusted annually) upon the facilities constructed, erected or installed
on the Leased Premises at the beginning of the term hereof. The Lessee shall pay
to the Lessor upon presentation of invoice therefor and as additional rent
during the term hereof, an amount equal to the premiums for such All Risk
Replacement Cost Insurance. During the term hereof the Lessee shall procure and
continue in force All Risk Replacement Cost Insurance with Agreed Amount
Endorsement (the latter to be adjusted annually) upon facilities, machinery,
equipment and appurtenances constructed, erected or installed on or in the
Leased Premises by the Lessee and which have or may become the property of the
Lessor pursuant to Sections 7 and 8 hereof. The policies evidencing such
insurance shall provide that loss, if any, payable thereunder shall be payable
to the Lessor and/or the Lessee and/or any mortgagee of the Leased Premises as
their respective interests may appear, and all such policies together with
evidence of payment of the premiums thereon shall be delivered to the Lessor
and/or any such mortgagee. All such policies shall be taken in such responsible
companies authorized to do business in New Hampshire as the Lessor shall approve
and shall be in form satisfactory to the Lessor. Upon receipt of a copy of
notice of cancellation of any insurance which is the responsibility of the
Lessee hereunder, the Lessor may pay the premiums necessary to reinstate the
same. The amount so paid shall constitute additional rent payable by the Lessee
at the next rental payment date. The payment of premiums by the Lessor shall

                                       7
<PAGE>
not be deemed a waiver or release by the Lessor of default by the Lessee in
failing to pay the same or of any action the Lessor may take hereunder as a
result of such default. The Lessee shall not violate, nor permit any person,
firm, association or corporation to violate any of the terms, conditions and
provisions of such policies. In the event of loss the Lessor shall promptly
initiate action to effect a settlement with the insurer, the Lessee shall
cooperate with the Lessor and any mortgagee in connection with the processing
and collection of claims and shall execute and deliver to the Lessor such proofs
of loss, releases and other instruments as may be necessary to settle any such
claims and obtain the proceeds thereof, and in the event the Lessee shall fail
or neglect so to cooperate or to execute and deliver any such instrument, the
Lessor may as the agent or attorney in fact of the Lessee, execute and deliver
any such instrument, and the Lessee hereby nominates and appoints the Lessor the
proper and legal attorney in fact of the Lessee for such purposes, hereby
ratifying all that the Lessor may lawfully do as such attorney in fact.

     (b) If and to the extent permitted without prejudice to any rights of the
Lessor under applicable insurance policies, the Lessee shall be held free and
harmless from liability for loss or damage to the Leased Premises by fire, the
extended coverage perils, sprinkler leakage, vandalism and malicious mischief if
and to the extent actually insured against, whether or not such loss or damage
be the result of the negligence of the Lessee, its employees or agents. This
subsection does not impose any added obligation or expense upon the Lessor nor
require that it carry insurance of any kind and is to be construed only as a
limitation upon the rights of the insurance carriers to subrogation.

     (c) If and to the extent permitted without prejudice to any rights of the
Lessee under the applicable insurance policies, the Lessor shall be held free
and harmless from liability for loss or damage to personal property of the
Lessee in the Leased Premises, by fire, the extended coverage perils, water
leakage, sewer problems, sprinkler leakage, vandalism and malicious mischief if
and to the extent actually insured against, whether or not such loss or damage
be the result of the negligence of the Lessor, its employees or agents. This
subsection does not impose any added obligation or expense upon the Lessee nor
require that it carry any insurance of any kind and is to be construed only as a
limitation upon the rights of the insurance carriers to subrogation.

     SECTION 18 -- DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES. In the event that the Leased
Premises shall be totally destroyed by fire or other casualty insured against,
or shall be so damaged that repairs and restoration cannot be accomplished both
(a) within a period of one hundred twenty (120) days, and (b) more than ninety
(90) days prior to the expiration of the term hereof, including any renewal term
for which the option therefor shall have been exercised, or (c) without cost to
Lessor in excess of the insurance proceeds available, if any, this Lease shall
automatically terminate without further act of either party hereto, and each
party shall be relieved of any further obligations to the other except that the
Lessee shall be liable for and shall promptly pay the Lessor any rent then in
arrears or the Lessor shall promptly rebate to the Lessee a pro rata portion of
any rent paid in advance. In the event the Leased Premises shall be so damaged
that repairs and restoration can be accomplished both (a) within a period of one
hundred twenty (120) days, and (b) more than ninety (90) days prior to the
expiration of the term hereof, including renewal term if the option
therefor shall have been exercised, this Lease shall continue in effect in
accordance with its terms; the Lessor shall accomplish such repairs and
restoration as promptly as practicable (utilizing therefor the proceeds of the
insurance applicable thereto without any apportionment therefor for damages to
the leasehold interest created by this Indenture); and until such repairs and
restoration have been accomplished, a portion of the rent shall abate equal to
the proportion of the Leased Premises rendered unusable by the damage. In no
event shall the obligation of the Lessor to repair and restore exceed in amount
the sum of the

                                       8
<PAGE>
insurance proceeds paid to Lessor and/or released to Lessor by any mortgagee
with which settlement was made, and the Lessee agrees to execute and deliver to
the Lessor all instruments and documents necessary to evidence the fact that the
right to such insurance proceeds is vested in the Lessor. The Lessor shall
notify the Lessee within thirty (30) days following the date of any such damage
or destruction whether or not repairs and restoration can be accomplished both
(a) within a period of one hundred twenty (120) days and (b) more than ninety
(90) days prior to the expiration of the term hereof, including any renewal term
for which the option therefor shall have been exercised.

     SECTION 19 - REPOSSESSION BY LESSOR.  At the expiration of this Lease or
upon an earlier termination of this Lease for any cause herein provided for, the
Lessee shall peaceably and quietly quit the Leased Premises and deliver up
possession of same to the Lessor, together with all alterations, additions,
improvements, mechanical installation, equipment and appurtenances thereto not
removed from the Leased Premises pursuant to Sections 7 and 8 hereof. The Lessee
covenants and agrees that at the time of delivery of possession to the Lessor at
the expiration of this Lease, any and all alterations, additions, improvements,
mechanical installations, equipment and appurtenances constructed or installed
on or in the Leased Premises at its expense after the beginning of the term
hereof and which have become the property of the Lessor pursuant to Sections 7
and 8 hereof shall be free and clear of any mortgage, lien, pledge or other
encumbrances or charges.

     SECTION 20 - SUBORDINATION.  The Lessee agrees that this Lease and all
rights of the Lessee hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to the
lien of (a) any mortgage or deed of trust constituting a first lien on the
Leased Premises, or any part thereof, at the date hereof, and (b) the lien of
any mortgage or deed of trust hereafter executed to provide permanent financing
or refinancing of the building of which the Leased Premises are a part, and (c)
any renewal, modification, consolidation or extension of any mortgage or deed of
trust referred to in clause (a) or clause (b). The Lessee shall, upon demand at
any time or times, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lessor without any
expense to the Lessor, any and all instruments that may be necessary or proper
to subordinate this Lease and all rights of the Lessee hereunder to the lien of
any mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument referred to in clause (b) or
clause (c) of the preceding sentence; provided, however, that such subordination
of this Lease may at the option of Lessee be conditioned upon the mortgagee or
trustee executing an agreement (i) that so long as the Lessee is not in default
under the terms of this Indenture, the mortgagee or trustee, or any person
succeeding to the rights of the mortgagee or trustee, or any purchaser at a
foreclosure sale under said mortgage or deed of trust, shall not disturb the
peaceful possession of the Lessee hereunder, and (ii) that the proceeds of
insurance policies held by it will be applied to the cost and restoration in
those instances in which the Lessor is obligated to repair and restore pursuant
to the provisions hereof.

     SECTION 21 - DEFAULT.  In the event (i) any installment of rent shall not
be paid within ten (10) days after the Lessor shall have notified the Lessee in
writing that the same is due and payable; or (ii) the Lessee defaults in the
performance or observation of any covenant or condition in this Indenture and
such default remains unremedied for thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof has been given to the Lessee by the Lessor, or (iii) the holder of a
security interest in all or substantially all of the personal property utilized
by the Lessee in, or generated by the operations of the Lessee in, the Leased
Premises forecloses the same; or (iv) the Lessee makes an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, is adjudicated
insolvent or bankrupt, petitions or applies to any tribunal for any receiver or
any trustee of or for the Lessee or any substantial part of its property,
commences any proceeding relating to the

                                       9
<PAGE>
     Lessee or any substantial part of its property under any reorganization,
     arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law or
     statute of any jurisdiction, whether now or hereafter in effect, or there
     is commenced against the Lessee any such proceedings which remains
     undismissed for a period of sixty (60) days, or any order approving the
     petition in any such proceeding is entered, or the Lessee by any act
     indicates its consent to, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or the
     appointment of any receiver or trustee for the Lessee or any substantial
     part of its property, or suffers any such receivership or trusteeship to
     continue undischarged for a period of sixty (60) days, then, in any such
     events, the Lessor may immediately or at any time thereafter and without
     demand notice enter upon the Leased Premises or any part thereof in the
     name of the whole and repossess the same as of the Lessor's former estate
     and expel the Lessee and those claiming through or under the Lessee and
     remove their effects forcibly if necessary, without being deemed guilty of
     any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies which might
     otherwise be used for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenant, and
     upon such entry this Lease shall terminate; and the Lessee covenants that,
     in case of such termination or in case of termination under the provisions
     of statute by reason of the default of the Lessee, the Lessee shall remain
     and continue liable to the Lessor in an amount equal to the total rent
     reserved for the balance of the term plus all additional rent reserved for
     the balance of the term hereof less the net amounts (after deducting the
     expenses of repair, renovation or demolition) which the Lessor realizes, or
     with due diligence should have realized, from the reletting of the Leased
     Premises. As used in this Section, the term "additional rent" means the
     value of all considerations other than rent agreed to be paid or performed
     by the Lessee hereunder, including, without limiting the generality of the
     foregoing, taxes, assessments and insurance premiums. The Lessor shall have
     the right from time to time to relet the Leased Premises upon such terms as
     he may deem fit, and if a sufficient sum shall not be thus realized to
     yield the net rent required under this Lease, the Lessee agrees to satisfy
     and pay all deficiencies as they may become due during each month of the
     remaining term of this Lease, or the Lessor may require the Lessee to pay
     to him as damages such lump sum as will suffice to make the Lessor whole
     for the balance of the then term of this Lease. Nothing herein contained
     shall be deemed to require the Lessor to await the date whereon this Lease,
     or the term hereof, would have expired had there been no default by the
     Lessee, or no such termination or cancellation. The Lessee expressly waives
     service of any notice of intention to reenter and waives any and all right
     to recover or regain possession of the Leased Premises, or to reinstate or
     redeem this Lease as may be permitted or provided for by or under any
     statute or law now or hereafter in force and effect. The rights and
     remedies given to the Lessor in this Lease are distinct, separate and
     cumulative remedies, and no one of them, whether or not exercised by the
     Lessor, shall be deemed to be in exclusion of any of the others herein or
     by law or equity provided. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or
     prejudice the right of the Lessor to prove and obtain, in proceedings
     involving the bankruptcy or insolvency of, or a composition with creditors
     by, the Lessee the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law at the
     time in effect.

          SECTION 22 - ACCESS TO PREMISES.  The Lessor or his
     representatives shall have free access to the Leased Premises at
     reasonable intervals during normal business hours for the purpose of
     inspection, or for the purpose of showing the premises to prospective
     purchasers or tenants, or for the purpose of making repairs, which the
     Lessee is obligated to make hereunder but has failed or refused to
     make. The preceding sentence does not impose upon the Lessor any
     obligation to make repairs. During the six (6) months next preceding
     the expiration of this Lease, the Lessor may keep affixed to any
     suitable part of the outside of the building of which the Leased
     Premises are a part a notice that the Leased Premises are for sale or
     rent.

     SECTION 23 - HOLDING OVER. In the event the Lessee shall hold over after
the expiration of the term hereof, such holding over shall not extend the term
of this Lease but shall create a month-to-month tenancy upon all the terms and
conditions of this Indenture.

     SECTION 24 - ARBITRATION. (a) In the event of any dispute to the meaning or
interpretation of any provision of this Lease, either party may, upon ten (10)
days' written notice to the other party, require that the dispute be determined
by arbitration under the rules, then obtaining, of the Commercial Panel of the
American Arbitration Association.
     (b) A decision of an arbitrator made in accordance with the provisions of
this Section shall be final and binding upon both parties hereto and enforceable
in a court of law.

     SECTION 25 - OPTION TO RENEW. Provided it be not at the time in default in
payment of the rent or in the performance of any of its other obligations
hereunder, the Lessee, upon not less than six (6) months' written notice to the
Lessor, may renew this Lease for three (3) additional terms of two (2) years
each. Such renewal terms shall be upon all of the terms and conditions of this
Lease except the rent shall be as provided in Section 26 hereof and except that
there shall be no further option of renewal upon expiration of the renewal
terms.

     SECTION 26 - BASE RENT FOR RENEWAL TERM. (a) If any option to renew shall
be exercised, the base monthly rent during the renewal term shall be an amount
determined by multiplying the base monthly rent of Thirteen Thousand Six Hundred
Twelve Dollars and Fifty Cents ($13,612.50) by a fraction the numerator of which
shall be the Price Index for the last complete month prior to the expiration of
the original or expiring renewal term hereof, and the denominator of which shall
be the price Index for the month prior to the month in which the original term
hereof began; provided, however, that if such fraction is one or less, the base
monthly rent shall remain at Thirteen Thousand Six Hundred Twelve Dollars and
Fifty Cents ($13,612.50).
     (b) As used in this Section the term "Price Index" means (i) the
"Consumers' Price Index - For all urban consumers, U.S. City Average, All Items,
(1982-84=100)" (referred to as CPI-U) published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the United States Department of Labor, or (ii) if the publication
of such Consumers' Price Index shall be discontinued, the comparable index most
clearly reflecting diminution of the real value of the base rent herein provided
for.
In the event of a change in the base for the Consumers' Price Index, the
numerator and denominator of the fraction referred to above shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect continued use of the 1982-84 base in the case
of the Consumers' Price Index or in the case of such comparable index, the
continued use of the base period in effect at the time of its adoption for use
hereunder. At the request of either party hereto, the other from time to time
shall execute an appropriate instrument supplemental to this Indenture
evidencing the then current monthly rent payable by the Lessee hereunder.

     SECTION 27 - HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Lessee shall not generate, store,
dispose of or otherwise handle any hazardous substance or waste or toxic waste
on the premises in any fashion contrary to any federal, state or local statutes,
laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, as the same may be described by
federal, state or local laws. Lessee shall indemnify and save the Lessor
harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs and
expenses including reasonable counsel fees, asserted by any third parties and
arising out of or by reason of use by Lessee of the premises for or in
conjunction with the disposal of hazardous or toxic waste. To the best of
Lessor's knowledge there is no hazardous waste on the property.
