       The  Credit  Parties  understand,  and have been advised by legal counsel

provides  as  follows:

"A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect  to  exist  in  his favor at the time of executing the release, which if
known  by  him  must  have  materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

The  Credit  Parties  understand  and  hereby waive the provisions of California
Civil  Code  Section  1542  and  any  statutory  or  common-law concepts similar
thereto, and they declare that they realize they may have damages they presently
know  nothing  about  and  that such damages have been released pursuant to this
release.  The Credit Parties also declare that they understand that Celtic would
not have agreed to enter into this Agreement if the release provisions contained

have  manifested  themselves or may be unknown or not anticipated at the present
time.

     (c)     Sole  Ownership.
       The  Credit  Parties represent and warrant that they alone are the owners
of  the  claims released in Section 6(a) above and that they have not heretofore
assigned  or  transferred,  or purported to assign or transfer, to any person or
entity  (each  a  "Person")  any  of  the  Released Matters.  The Credit Parties
further  agree  to  defend,  indemnify  and  hold  harmless Celtic and all other
Released  Parties  from  and  against  all  liability, claims, demands, damages,
costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred by them as a result of any Person's
asserting  any  such assignment or transfer of any rights or claims.  The Credit
Parties  also represent and warrant that none of the Released Matters is subject
to  any  purported or actual lien, security interest, encumbrance or contractual
or  other  right  of  any  third  party, and the Credit Parties agree to defend,
indemnify  and  hold  harmless  Celtic  and  all other Released Parties from and
against  all liability, claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses and attorneys'
fees incurred by them as a result of any Person's asserting the existence of any
of  the  foregoing.  This agreement to defend, indemnify and hold harmless shall
survive  termination,  amendment  or  expiration  of  the  Loan  Agreements, the
Guaranties,  this  Agreement,  each  other  document,  contract  and  instrument
heretofore  or  hereafter delivered hereunder or thereunder and any relationship
between  any  of  the  Credit  Parties  and  Celtic.

approve  the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other
documentation  contemplated  hereby.  Such  Credit Party has the legal power and
authority to execute this Agreement and perform the Component Transactions.  The
execution,  delivery  and  performance  of  this  Agreement  and  the  other
documentation  contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of any
governmental  authority  or other Person[, other than the consent of UPS Capital

other  documentation  executed  by  such Credit Party as contemplated hereby are
legal,  valid  and  binding obligations of such Credit Party and are enforceable
against  such  Credit Party in accordance with their respective terms, except as

reorganization  or  other  similar  laws  affecting creditors' rights generally.

     (b)     No  Conflict.
       The  execution,  delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other
documentation  contemplated  hereby do not contravene or conflict with any other
agreement,  indenture,  document, instrument or undertaking to which such Credit
Party  is  a  party or by which such Credit Party or any of the property thereof
may  be  bound  or  affected.

     (c)     Litigation.
       There is no litigation or other proceeding currently pending against such
Credit  Party.

     (d)     Orders.

     (e)     Contractual  Obligations.
       Such  Credit  Party  is  not  in  default  of or bound by any contractual
obligation  that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ability of
such  Credit  Party  to  perform  its  obligations  under  this Agreement or any
documentation  contemplated  hereby.

     (f)     Information.
       No  representation,  warranty,  information  or  report furnished by such
Credit  Party  to  Celtic in connection with this Agreement or any documentation
entered  into  in connection herewith contains any material misstatement of fact
or  omits  to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements
contained  therein, in light of the circumstances in which made, not misleading.

     (g)     Organization.
       Such  Credit  Party is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in  good  standing  under  the  laws  of  the State of California and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which it is required to qualify to do business.

     (h)     Insolvency.
       The  execution,  delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other
documentation  to  be  entered  into by such Credit Party in connection herewith

beyond  such  Credit  Party's  ability  to  pay them when and as they mature and
become  due  and  payable.  For purposes of this Section 6(h), "Insolvent" means
that  the present fair salable value of assets is less than the amount that will
be  required  to  pay  the  probable  liability on existing Debts as they become
absolute  and  matured,  and "Debts" means any legal liability for indebtedness,
whether  matured  or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent,
direct  or  indirect.  Such  Credit  Party  has  derived  or expects to derive a
financial  or  other  benefit or advantage from this Agreement and the Component

proceeds  received  from  such  prosecution;  provided,  however, that if, on or
before  June  30,  2001,  the  Credit  Parties  have  not  paid  Celtic at least
$4,000,000  in  principal  amount  of  the indebtedness to Celtic under the Loan
Agreements, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, NMT will, and
NMTI will cause NMT to, execute such documentation and take such other action as

Attention:     Mr.  Mark  Hafner

     This  letter  agreement  sets forth the agreement of National Manufacturing

Inc.,  a California corporation ("Electronics"), I-PAC Precision Machining, Inc.
("Sheet  Metal"),  National Metal Technologies ("NMT"), Comtel Holdings, Inc., a
Delaware  corporation  ("Comtel  Holdings"), and Alton Diversified Technologies,
Inc.,  a California corporation ("Alton"), to assist Celtic Capital Corporation,
a  California  corporation  ("Celtic"),  in  the  collection of certain accounts
receivable  of  Electronics,  Sheet  Metal  and  NMT  (the  "Receivables").

The undersigned are executing this letter agreement in order to induce Celtic to
approve  the  sale  of Electronics' and Sheet Metal's equipment and inventory to
Alton  pursuant  to  the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 1, 2001 among

said  equipment  and  inventory  pursuant  to  each  of  the  Loan  and Security
Agreements  with  Electronics  and  Sheet  Metal  dated  as of June 18, 1999, as
amended  (the  "Loan  and  Security Agreements").  Each of Electronics and Sheet
Metal  is  in  default of its obligations to repay its debt under its respective
Loan  and  Security  Agreement.  Pursuant  to  the Loan and Security Agreements,
Celtic  may,  among  other  things,  exercise  all of the rights and remedies of
Electronics  and  Sheet  Metal  with  respect  to collection of the Receivables.

     Each of NMTI, Electronics, Sheet Metal, Comtel Holdings and Alton covenants
and  agrees  to  provide  promptly  to  Celtic  such  agreements,  instruments,
certificates and other documents, and to do and perform promptly such other acts
and  things,  as  Celtic  may reasonably request from time to time to facilitate
Celtic's collection of the Receivables.  Each of NMTI, Electronics, Sheet Metal,
Comtel  Holdings and Alton further covenants and agrees to act in good faith and
use  commercially  reasonable  efforts  (but  without incurring material cost or
expense)  to provide the documentation and assistance described in the preceding
sentence,  which  shall  include,  without  limitation,  the  following:

(1)     NMTI,  Electronics,  Sheet  Metal  and  NMT providing to Celtic any
information  reasonably requested thereby concerning the Receivables, including,
without  limitation,  the amount and aging of each account, the name and address
of each account debtor and a copy of all correspondence with each account debtor
regarding  each  account;  and

(2)     each  of Comtel Holdings and Alton using commercially reasonable efforts
(but  without  incurring  material  cost  or  expense) to influence each account
debtor to make full payment of the Receivables payable thereby, without discount
or  offset.

     This  letter  agreement  is  subject  to the terms of the Workout Agreement
dated  as  of  May  31, 2001 between Celtic and each of NMTI, Electronics, Sheet
Metal  and NMT and shall terminate on the date on which Celtic has been paid all
amounts  owed  thereto  by  NMTI,  Electronics,  Sheet  Metal  and  NMT.

     This  letter  agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance  with,  the  internal  laws  of  the  State  of  California.

Very  truly  yours,
