      New Revolving Note.

C.    The Bank has agreed to increase the credit amount of the Line and extend
      the Line Availability Period in accordance with the terms of the Third
      Addendum, provided that all of the conditions precedent set out in the

      Credit is not renewed or extended upon its expiration or is otherwise
      terminated, the Guarantor shall provide to the Bank a standby letter of
      credit, or some other form of collateral that would be acceptable to the
      Bank in its sole discretion in support of the obligations owed by the
      Borrower under the New Revolving Note, issued by a banking institution
      acceptable to the Bank in an amount not less than Three Million Nine

      such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a
      receiver before, during or after the pendency or any arbitration
      proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or
      obligation of either party to submit any dispute to arbitration, including
      those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i),
      (ii) and (iii) of this Section.

      Any arbitration proceeding will be before a single arbitrator selected

      motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a
      claim or motions for summary adjudication.

      governed by the Iowa Rules of Civil Procedure. All, discovery must be
      completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date and within 180
      days of the commencement of arbitration proceedings. Any requests for an
      extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be
      subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the
      request for discovery is essential for the party's presentation and that
      no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

      The arbitrator shall award costs, and expenses of the arbitration
      proceeding in accordance with the provisions of the New Revolving Note.

      This Section shall survive the payment of all obligations to the Bank.

      Fargo & Company and their respective affiliates and their officers,
      directors, attorneys, agents, employees, successors and assigns from all

      or may ever have had against them, if the circumstances giving rise to
      such causes of action, suits, claims and demands (a) are related in any
      manner whatsoever to the transactions which are the subject of this
      Consent and Ratification and (b) arose prior to the date of this Consent
      and Ratification.

      benefit of the Guarantor and the Sank and their respective successors and
      assigns.
