     SECTION 2. DEMAND REGISTRATION.

          i. DEMAND FOR REGISTRATION. The Holder may, at its option, at any
     time, require the Company to use its best efforts to effect a registration
     of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act (the "Demand
     Registration"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the Company shall not be
     required to effect such Demand Registration unless the Company is requested
     to do so with respect to Registrable Securities having a Market Value of
     not less than $1,000,000; (ii) at its option, the Company shall not be
     required to effect such registration prior to six (6) months immediately
     following the date on which an underwritten public offering of equity
     securities (pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
     Securities Act) is commenced, if such public offering is commenced prior to
     the date of a request for the Demand Registration; PROVIDED, FURTHER that,
     if in the Company's opinion such registration, if not deferred, materially
     and adversely would affect its business or financial condition, the Company
     may defer such registration for a single period (specified in such notice)
     of not more than 180 days; and (iii) the Company shall not be required to
     use its best efforts to effect a registration of Registrable Securities
     under this Section 2 more than twice. At the election of Holder requesting
     a Demand Registration, such registration statement shall be filed under
     Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act (a "Resale Registration
     Statement"), and the Company shall use its best efforts to keep a Resale
     Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier of two (2)
     years from the date of Holder's request and the date on which there are no
     more Registrable Securities remaining unsold thereunder. The Company shall
     cause a Resale Registration Statement to be amended to remove Holder's
     Registrable Securities upon notice to the Company from Holder. The Company
     shall not be required to file and effect more than one (1) Resale
     Registration Statements pursuant to this Section 2(a). If, after a Demand
     Registration becomes effective, the offering of securities thereunder is or
     becomes subject to any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement
     of the Commission that prevents or limits the sale of securities thereunder
     for a period of more than five (5) Business Days, then such Demand
     Registration shall be deemed not to have been effected for purposes of this
     Section 2(a).

          ii. UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. If a Demand Registration is underwritten,
the underwriter must be reasonably acceptable to the Company. In connection with
any Demand Registration, in the event that such Demand Registration involves an
underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters participating
in such offering advise Holder in writing that the total number of Registrable
Shares to be included in such offering exceeds the amount that can be sold in
(or during the time of) such offering without delaying or jeopardizing the
success of such offering (including the price per share of the Registrable
Shares to be sold), then the amount of Registrable Shares to be offered for the
account of Holder shall be reduced by an amount recommended by such underwriter.

                                       4

     SECTION 3. PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION.

          i. REQUEST FOR REGISTRATION. Subject to Section 5(b), each time the
     Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act
     with respect to an offering by the Company for its own account, (except,
     (i) a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or any substitute form
     that is adopted by the Commission), (ii) a registration statement filed in
     connection with a dividend reinvestment plan, stock option plan or unit
     investment trusts, or (iii) a registration statement filed in connection
     with an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company's
     existing security holders), and the form of registration statement to be
     used permits the registration of Registrable Securities, then the Company
     shall give written notice of such proposed filing to Holder as soon as
     reasonably practicable (but in no event less than 30 days before the
     anticipated filing date and no less than 40 days before the anticipated
     effective date), and such notice shall offer Holder the opportunity to
     register such Registrable Securities as Holder may request (which request
     shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by
     Holder and the intended method of distribution thereof) up to 20 days
     before the anticipated effective date (a "Piggy-Back Registration"). The
     Company shall cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed
     underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be
     included in a Piggy-Back Registration to be included on substantially the
     same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company or any
     other securityholder included therein and to permit the sale or other
     disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
     method of distribution thereof. Holder shall have the right to withdraw its
     request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Registration
     Statement pursuant to this Section 3 by giving written notice to the
     Company of such withdrawal no later than 2 Business Days prior to the
     anticipated effective date. The Company may withdraw a Piggy-Back
     Registration at any time prior to the time it becomes effective, PROVIDED,
     THAT the Company shall give prompt notice of such withdrawal to Holder if
     requested to be included in such Piggy-Back Registration.

          ii. REDUCTION OF OFFERING. If the managing underwriter or underwriters
     of an underwritten offering with respect to which Piggy-Back Registration
     has been requested as provided in Section 3(a) hereof shall have informed
     the Company, in writing, that in the opinion of such underwriter or
     underwriters the total number of shares which the Company, Holder and any
     other Persons participating in such registration intend to include in such
     offering is such as to materially and adversely affect the success of such
     offering (including without limitation any material decrease in the
     proposed public offering price), then the number of shares to be offered
     for the account of all Persons and Holder (other than the Company)
     participating in such registration shall be reduced or limited pro rata in
     proportion to the respective number of shares requested to be registered by
     such Persons to the extent necessary to reduce the total number of shares
     requested to be included in such offering to the number of shares, if any,
     recommended by such managing underwriter or underwriters; PROVIDED,
     HOWEVER, that the number of

                                       5

<PAGE>

     shares to be offered for the account of the Holder shall in no case be
     reduced to a quantity less than 6 and 2/3% of the total number of shares to
     be offered for the account of all Persons and Holder (including the
     Company) participating in such registration.

          iii. UNDERWRITING. In the case of a Piggy-Back Registration, if the
     Company has determined to enter into an underwriting agreement in
     connection therewith, all Registrable Securities to be included in such
     Registration Statement shall be subject to such underwriting agreement, and
     Holder may not participate in such Registration unless such Holder agrees
     to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided for in such
     underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and completes and/or
     executes all reasonable and customary questionnaires, powers of attorney,
     indemnities, underwriting agreements and other reasonable documents which
     must be executed under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

     SECTION 4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In connection with the obligations of
the Company to effect or cause the registration of any Registrable Securities
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall use
its best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable
Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as quickly as
reasonably practicable, and in connection therewith:

          i. Prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
     amendments or supplements thereto, excluding for purposes of this Section
     4(a) documents incorporated by reference after the initial filing of the
     Registration Statement, the Company will furnish to Holder covered by such
     Registration Statement and the underwriters, if any, draft copies of all
     such documents proposed to be filed upon request.

          ii. The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such
     amendments and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as
     may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period
     of not more than 60 days or (in the case of a Resale Registration
     Statement) up to the earlier of two (2) years after the date Holder
     requests such Resale Registration Statement and the date on which there are
     no Registrable Securities unsold thereunder (as applicable, the "Effective
     Period"); shall cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required
     Prospectus supplements, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to
     Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and shall comply with the provisions of
     the Securities Act applicable to it with respect to the disposition of all
     Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement during the
     Effective Period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by
     Holder set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the
     Prospectus.

          iii. The Company shall furnish to Holder and the underwriters, if any,
     without charge, a copy of each Registration Statement and any
     post-effective amendment thereto and such number of copies of the
     Prospectus (including each preliminary Prospectus) and

                                       6

          iv. The Company shall, (i) on or prior to the date on which a
     Registration Statement is declared effective, use its reasonable best
     efforts to cooperate with Holder's efforts to register or qualify the
     Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under such
     other securities or "blue sky" laws of such states of the United States as
     Holder or underwriter reasonably requests; (ii) do any and all other acts
     and things which may be reasonably necessary to enable Holder to consummate
     the disposition of such Registrable Securities owned by Holder in
     accordance with the intended methods for distribution set forth therein;
     and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to keep each such registration or
     qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effective
     Period; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required (A) to
     qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
     otherwise be required to qualify or (B) to file any general consent to
     service of process.

          v. The Company shall notify Holder and any underwriter (i) when a
     Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has
     been filed and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any
     post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any

     and supplements to a Registration Statement and Prospectus or for

     effective, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
     suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation

     untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
     required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
     in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

          vi. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the

     meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
     Exchange Act, or is under common control with, or is controlled by, Holder,
     together with the partners, officers, directors, trustees, stockholders,
     employees and agents of such controlling Person (collectively, the
     "Controlling Persons"), from and against all losses, claims, damages,
     liabilities and

                                       10

<PAGE>

     expenses (including without limitation any reasonable legal or other fees
     and expenses actually incurred in connection with defending or
     investigating any action or claim in respect thereof, PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
     that such legal fees shall be limited to those incurred by one individual
     counsel for all Section 7(a) (collectively, the "Damages")) to which such
     Section 7(a) Indemnitee may become subject under the Securities Act,
     insofar as such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of
     any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any
     Registration Statement or Prospectus (or any amendment thereto) pursuant to
     which Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act or
     caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
     necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances
     under which they were made not misleading, or caused by any untrue
     statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such
     Prospectus (as amended or supplemented only if the Company shall have
     furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission
     or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the
     statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made
     not misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be liable in
     any such case to the extent that Damages arise out of or are based upon any
     such untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to such
     Section 7(a) Indemnitee furnished in writing to the Company by such Section
     7(a) Indemnitee (or by a Person authorized to provide such information on
     behalf of such Section 7(a) Indemnitee) for use therein.

          ii. INDEMNIFICATION BY HOLDER. Holder agrees to indemnify and hold
     harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law the Company, its
     directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, attorneys,
     underwriters and investment advisers and each of their employees and
     agents, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the
     meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
     Exchange Act, or is under common control with, or is controlled by, the
     Company, together with its Controlling Person, from and against all Damages
     to which the Company and any Controlling Persons may become subject under
     the Securities Act insofar as such Damages (or proceedings in respect
     thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue
     statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any
     amendment thereto) pursuant to which Registrable Securities were registered
     under the Securities Act, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to
     state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in
     light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or
     caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
     fact contained in any Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company
     shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by
     any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary
     to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which
     they were made not misleading, to the extent, but only if and to the extent
     that such Damages arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement
     or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission based upon
     information relating to Holder furnished in writing to the Company by
     Holder (or by a Person authorized to provide such

                                       11

<PAGE>

     information on behalf of Holder) for inclusion therein; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
     that Holder shall not be liable in any case to the extent that such Damages
     result from the failure of the Company to amend or take action to correct
     or supplement any such Registration Statement or Prospectus on the basis of
     corrected or supplemented information provided in writing by Holder to the
     Company expressly for such purpose.

          iii. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES. In case any proceeding (including any
     governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in
     respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a)
     or (b) above, such Person (the "indemnified party") promptly shall notify
     the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying
     party") in writing and the indemnifying party shall retain counsel
     reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
     indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in
     such proceedings and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of
     such counsel relating to such proceeding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER that (i) in the
     case of any proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant
     to both paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the Company shall not be required to
     assume the defense thereof and each party shall bear its own fees and
     expenses of such counsel and (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to pay
     the fees and expenses of more than one individual counsel (together with
     any appropriate or necessary local counsel, if any) for all indemnified
     parties, including the Company. In any such proceeding, any indemnified
     party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and
     expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party
     unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have
     mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, or (ii) the indemnifying
     party fails promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding or fails to
     employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party or
     parties, or (iii) (A) the named parties to any such proceeding (including
     any impleaded parties) include both such indemnified party or parties and
     any indemnifying party or an Affiliate of such indemnified party or parties
     or of any indemnifying party, (B) there may be one or more legal defenses
     available to such indemnified party or parties or such Affiliate of such
     indemnified party or parties that are different from or additional to those
     available to any indemnifying party or such Affiliate of any indemnifying
     party and (C) such indemnified party or parties shall have been advised by
     such counsel that there may exist a legal conflict of interest between or
     among such indemnified party or parties or such Affiliate of such
     indemnified party or parties and any indemnifying party or such Affiliate
     of any indemnifying party, in which case, if such indemnified party or
     parties notifies the indemnifying party or parties in writing that it
     elects to employ separate counsel of its choice at the reasonable expense
     of the indemnifying parties, the indemnifying parties shall not have the
     right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the
     reasonable expense of the indemnifying parties, it being understood,
     however, that unless there exists a conflict among indemnified parties, the
     indemnifying parties shall not, in connection with any one such proceeding
     or separate but substantially similar or related proceedings in the same
     jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances,
     be liable for the

                                       12

<PAGE>

     fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys at any time for such
     indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable
     for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent
     (which will not be unreasonably withheld) but, if settled with such consent
     or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party
     agrees to indemnify the indemnified party or parties from and against any
     loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying
     party shall, without the prior written consent (which will not be
     unreasonably withheld) of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of
     any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such indemnified
     party is a party, and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
     indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release
     of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject
     matter of such proceeding.

          iv. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent that the indemnification provided for
     in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7 is unavailable to an indemnified
     party or insufficient in respect of any Damages, then each indemnifying
     party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
     thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
     indemnified party as a result of such Damages in such proportion as is
     appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand
     and Holder on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions
     that resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable
     considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of
     Holder on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other
     things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
     or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
     information supplied by the Company or Holder and the parties' relative
     intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
     prevent such statement or omission.

     If indemnification is available under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
7, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full
extent provided in such paragraphs without regard to the relative fault of said
indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration
provided for in this Section 7(d).

     The Company and Holder agree that it would not be just or equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by
an indemnified party as a result of the Damages referred to in this Section 7
shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any
reasonable legal or other expenses incurred (and not otherwise reimbursed) by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution or indemnification from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are
not exclusive and shall not

                                       13

<PAGE>

limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified
party at law or in equity.

          v. SURVIVAL. The parties' indemnification and contribution obligations
pursuant to this Section 7 shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment or other
disposition of any Registrable Securities and shall survive any termination of
this Agreement.

     SECTION 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION; VOTING RIGHTS.

          i. The Company shall provide to Holder unaudited annual statements of
     income, statements of cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity, and
     an unaudited balance sheet, all prepared in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") consistently applied, dated as of
     the fiscal year end within ninety (90) days after the end of the applicable
     fiscal year. The Company shall provide to Holder unaudited quarterly
     statements of income, statements of cash flows and changes in stockholders'
     equity, and unaudited balance sheets, all prepared in accordance with GAAP
     consistently applied, dated as of the fiscal quarter end within forty-five
     (45) days after the end of the applicable fiscal quarter. The Company shall
     also timely provide to Holder any other interim financial statements or
     balance sheets prepared by or at the request of the Company.

          ii. Until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Warrant and (ii)
     the sale or disposition by the Holder and/or its Affiliates of 50% of the
     Registrable Shares, the Company shall not, without obtaining the prior
     written consent of the Holder, consolidate with or merge with or into, or
     convey or transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets to,
     another Person.

     SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS.

          i. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement, including
     the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
     supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
     hereof may not be given unless the same are in writing and signed by Holder
     and the Company.

          ii. ASSIGNMENT. Holder may assign to any Affiliate all, but not less
     than all, of its rights hereunder with respect to the Registrable
     Securities. Holder shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any such
     assignment.

          iii. NOTICES. All notices, requests and other communications provided
     for herein shall be given or made in writing:

                           SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

     THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (as amended, modified,
supplemented or restated from time to time, this "Agreement") is entered into as
of May 31, 2001, by and between MOTORCAR PARTS & ACCESSORIES, INC., a New York
corporation ("Borrower"), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ("Bank").

                                    RECITALS

     A. Borrower is currently indebted to Bank pursuant to the terms of that
certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as
of April 20, 2000 (as amended, the "Prior Credit Agreement"). Borrower has
requested that Bank extend the credit accommodations described below (each, a
"Credit" and collectively, the "Credits"), and Bank has agreed to extend the
Credits to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein.

     B. Borrower has requested Bank to extend the maturity date of the Prior
Credit Agreement and amend and restate certain other terms of the Original
Credit Agreement, and Bank has consented to such request on the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I

                                   THE CREDITS

     SECTION 1.1 LINE OF CREDIT.

     (a) LINE OF CREDIT. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to April
30, 2002, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of
Twenty-Four Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($24,750,000.00) ("Line
of Credit"), the proceeds of which shall be used solely for Borrower's general
corporate and working capital requirements and shall in no event be used to fund
the Escrow Account or any settlement of the Pending Litigation (as such terms
are defined in Section 1.3(b) below). Borrower's obligation to repay advances
under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially
in the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto ("Line of Credit Note"), all terms of
which are incorporated herein by this reference.

     (b) LIMITATION ON BORROWINGS. Outstanding borrowings under the Line of
Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth above, shall not at any
time exceed an aggregate of (i) seventy-five percent (75.0%) of Borrower's
Eligible Accounts Receivable (as defined below), PLUS (ii) eighty percent
(80.0%) of the Appraised Net Recovery Value (as defined below) of Borrower's
inventory. The amount calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence is referred
to herein as the "Borrowing Base". All of the foregoing shall be determined by
Bank upon receipt and review of all collateral reports required hereunder and
such other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time
require. Borrower acknowledges that the Borrowing

                                       1

<PAGE>

Base was established by Bank with the understanding that if there at any time
exists any other matters, events, conditions or contingencies which Bank
reasonably believes may affect payment of any portion of Borrower's accounts,
Bank, in its sole discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against
Eligible Accounts Receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect additional
dilution and/or establish additional reserves against Borrower's Eligible
Accounts Receivable.

     As used herein, "Eligible Accounts Receivable" shall consist solely of
trade accounts created in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, upon which
Borrower's right to receive payment is absolute and not contingent upon the
fulfillment of any condition whatsoever, and in which Bank has a perfected
security interest of first priority, and shall not include:

          (i) any account which is remains unpaid more than sixty (60) days past
the due date thereof;

          (ii) that portion of any account for which there exists any right of
setoff (including deposits, loans and warranties), defense or discount (except
regular discounts allowed in the ordinary course of business to promote prompt
payment) or for which any defense or counterclaim has been asserted;

          (iii) any account which represents an obligation of any state or
municipal government or of the United States government or any political
subdivision thereof (except accounts which represent obligations of the United
States government and for which the assignment provisions of the Federal
Assignment of Claims Act, as amended or recodified from time to time, have been
complied with to Bank's satisfaction);

          (iv) any account which represents an obligation of an account debtor
located in a foreign country other than an account debtor located in the
Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan
or the Yukon Territory so long as, in Bank's determination, such Canadian
jurisdictions recognize Bank's first priority security interest in and right to
collect such account as a consequence of any security agreements and UCC filings
in favor of Bank and except to the extent any such account, in Bank's
determination, is supported by a letter of credit or insured under a policy of
foreign credit insurance, in each case in form, substance and issued by a party
acceptable to Bank;

          (v) any account which arises from the sale or lease to or performance
of services for, or represents an obligation of, an employee, director,
affiliate, partner, member, parent or subsidiary of Borrower;

          (vi) that portion of any account which represents interim or progress
billings or retention rights on the part of the account debtor;

          (vii) any account which represents an obligation of any account debtor
when twenty percent (20%) or more of Borrower's accounts from such account
debtor are not eligible pursuant to (i) above;

          (viii) that portion of any account from an account debtor which
represents the amount by which Borrower's total accounts from said account
debtor exceeds twenty-five

                                       2

<PAGE>

percent (25%) of Borrower's total accounts; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this
limitation shall not apply to any accounts owing by AutoZone so long as the

     SECTION 4.9 FINANCIAL CONDITION. Maintain Borrower's financial condition as

     (a) Monthly EBITDA, calculated on a monthly basis beginning with the month
ended April 30, 2001, shall at all times equal not less than 110% of the sum of
Borrower's monthly interest and lease payment obligations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if in any given month Borrower's EBITDA is less than 110% but not less than
100% of the sum of Borrower's monthly interest and lease payment obligations,
then Borrower shall not be in default under this provision so long as the sum of
Borrower's EBITDA for such month when combined with that of the immediately
preceding month exceeds 110% of the sum of Borrower's monthly interest and lease
payment obligations for such month when combined with that of the immediately
preceding month. "EBITDA" shall refer to Borrower's net income, PLUS in each
case to the extent deducted to arrive at net income, interest expense (net of
capitalized interest expense), taxes, depreciation expense and amortization
expense, and an amount equal to any non-cash charge or non-cash credit to
earnings resulting from the reduction of the exercise price of the Warrants
issued in favor of Bank pursuant to the Amendment to Warrant delivered pursuant
to Section 3.1(b)(iii).

     (b) Net Operating Income/(Loss), calculated on a monthly basis beginning
with the month ended April 30, 2001, shall never be more than 10% less than (in
the case of income) or 10% greater than (in the case of loss) the amount of
income/loss reflected in the Projections for such month; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if in any given month Borrower's Net Operating Income/(Loss) does vary more than
such permitted 10% variance from the Projections for such

                                       13

<PAGE>

month, Borrower shall not be in default under this provision so long as the sum
of Borrower's Net Operating Income/(Loss) for such month when combined with that
of the immediately preceding month is within such permitted 10% variance from
the Projections for such two-month period. "Net Operating Income/(Loss)" as used
herein shall mean all income (not including any interest income) before
deducting interest expense and taxes. "Projections" as used herein shall mean
those certain financial projections for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002
prepared by Borrower and delivered to Bank, a copy of which are attached hereto
as EXHIBIT E.

     (c) Gross sales, calculated on a monthly basis beginning with the month
ended April 30, 2001, shall never be less than 90% of the amount of gross sales
reflected in the Projections for such month; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if in any
given month Borrower's gross sales are less than 90% of gross sales as reflected
in the Projections for such month, Borrower shall not be in default under this
provision so long as the sum of Borrower's gross sales for such month when
combined with that of the two immediately preceding months is at least 90% of
the gross sales reflected in the Projections for such three-month period.

     (d) Minimum Tangible Net Worth not at any time less than the sum of (i)
Borrower's Tangible Net Worth as of March 31, 2001, PLUS (ii) as of each month
end from and after May 31, 2001, an amount equal to 50% of Borrower's net income
after taxes for such month, PLUS (iii) an amount equal to any increase in
Tangible Net Worth in connection with the Settlement, including in connection
with a purchase of capital stock by Mel Marks, MINUS (iv) an amount equal to any
charge or credit to earnings resulting from the reduction of the exercise price
of the Warrants issued in favor of Bank pursuant to the Amendment to Warrant
delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(iii). "Tangible Net Worth" is defined as
the aggregate of total stockholders' equity plus subordinated debt minus any
intangible assets.

     (e) Minimum Adjusted EBITDA, calculated as of the last day of each month
beginning with the month ended April 30, 2001, of not less than the amount set
forth opposite such date for the twelve month period ending on such date:

parties shall mutually agree upon in accordance with the AAA Commercial
Arbitration Rules. All Disputes submitted to arbitration shall be resolved in
accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code),
notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the Loan
Documents. The arbitration shall be conducted at a location in California
selected by the AAA or other administrator. If there is any inconsistency
between the terms hereof and any such rules, the terms and procedures set forth
herein shall control. All statutes of limitation applicable to any Dispute shall
apply to any arbitration proceeding. All discovery activities shall be expressly
limited to matters directly relevant to the Dispute being arbitrated. Judgment
upon any award rendered in an arbitration may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction; provided however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under
12 U.S.C. ss.91 or any similar applicable state law.

                                       20

     (c) NO WAIVER; PROVISIONAL REMEDIES, SELF-HELP AND FORECLOSURE. No
provision hereof shall limit the right of any party to exercise self-help
remedies such as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal
property collateral or security, or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies,
including without limitation injunctive relief, sequestration, attachment,
garnishment or the appointment of a receiver, from a court of competent
jurisdiction before, after or during the pendency of any arbitration or other
proceeding. The exercise of any such remedy shall not waive the right of any
party to compel arbitration or reference hereunder.

     (d) ARBITRATOR QUALIFICATIONS AND POWERS; AWARDS. Arbitrators must be
active members of the California State Bar or retired judges of the state or
federal judiciary of California, with expertise in the substantive laws
applicable to the subject matter of the Dispute. Arbitrators are empowered to
resolve Disputes by summary rulings in response to motions filed prior to the
final arbitration hearing. Arbitrators (i) shall resolve all Disputes in
accordance with the substantive law of the state of California, (ii) may grant
any remedy or relief that a court of the state of California could order or
grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make
effective any award, and (iii) shall have the power to award recovery of all
costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other actions as they deem
necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure, the California Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable
law. Any Dispute in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000 or less shall
be decided by a single arbitrator who shall not render an award of greater than
$5,000,000 (including damages, costs, fees and expenses). By submission to a
single arbitrator, each party expressly waives any right or claim to recover
more than $5,000,000. Any Dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds
$5,000,000 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all
hearings and deliberations.

     (e) JUDICIAL REVIEW. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
any arbitration in which the amount in controversy exceeds $25,000,000, the
arbitrators shall be required to make specific, written findings of fact and
conclusions of law. In such arbitrations (i) the arbitrators shall not have the
power to make any award which is not supported by substantial evidence or which
is based on legal error, (ii) an award shall not be binding upon the parties
unless the findings of fact are supported by substantial evidence and the
conclusions of law are not erroneous under the substantive law of the state of
California, and (iii) the parties shall have in addition to the grounds referred
to in the Federal Arbitration Act for vacating, modifying or correcting an award
the right to judicial review of (A) whether the findings of fact rendered by the
arbitrators are supported by substantial evidence, and (B) whether the
conclusions of law are erroneous under the substantive law of the state of
California. Judgment confirming an award in such a proceeding may be entered
only if a court determines the award is supported by substantial evidence and
not based on legal error under the substantive law of the state of California.

     (f) REAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL; JUDICIAL REFERENCE. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, no Dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the
Dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in
part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or
security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the
arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits
that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of
California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations

                                       21

<PAGE>

of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such
indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any
such Dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the Dispute shall be referred to a
referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et
seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically
enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the
qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the
AAA's selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee
shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in
accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.

     (g) MISCELLANEOUS. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the
arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any
arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the Dispute with the
AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the
existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by
a party required in the ordinary course of its business, by applicable law or
regulation, or to the extent necessary to exercise any judicial review rights
set forth herein. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the
parties potentially applies to a Dispute, the arbitration provision most
directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the Dispute
shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment
or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the
parties.

     SECTION 7.12 GENERAL RELEASE. In consideration of the benefits provided to
Borrower under the terms and provisions hereof, Borrower hereby agrees as
follows ("General Release"):

     (a) Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its successors and assigns, does
hereby release, acquit and forever discharge Bank, all of Bank's predecessors in
interest, and all of Bank's past and present officers, directors, attorneys,
affiliates, employees and agents, of and from any and all claims, demands,
obligations, liabilities, indebtedness, breaches of contract, breaches of duty
or of any relationship, acts, omissions, misfeasance, malfeasance, causes of
action, defenses, offsets, debts, sums of money, accounts, compensation,
contracts, controversies, promises, damages, costs, losses and expenses, of
every type, kind, nature, description or character, whether known or unknown,
suspected or unsuspected, liquidated or unliquidated, each as though fully set
forth herein at length (each, a "Released Claim" and collectively, the "Released
Claims"), that Borrower has as of the Effective Date of this Amendment
(hereafter, the "Release Date"), including without limitation, those Released
Claims in any way arising out of, connected with or related to any and all prior
credit accommodations, if any, provided by Bank, or any of Bank's predecessors
in interest, to Borrower, and any agreements, notes or documents of any kind
related thereto or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby, or any other
agreement or document referred to herein or therein.

     (b) Borrower hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to Bank as
follows:

          (i) Borrower understands the meaning and effect of Section 1542 of the
California Civil Code which provides:

          "Section 1542. GENERAL RELEASE; EXTENT. A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT
          EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE

                                       22

<PAGE>

          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."

          (ii) With regard to Section 1542 of the California Civil Code,
Borrower agrees to assume the risk of any and all unknown, unanticipated or
misunderstood defenses and Released Claims which are released by the provisions
of this General Release in favor of Bank, and Borrower hereby waives and
releases all rights and benefits which it might otherwise have under Section
1542 of the California Civil Code with regard to the release of such unknown,
unanticipated or misunderstood defenses and Released Claims.

     (c) Each person signing below on behalf of Borrower acknowledges that he or
she has read each of the provisions of this General Release. Each such person
fully understands that this General Release has important legal consequences and
each such person realizes that they are releasing any and all Released Claims
that Borrower may have as of the Release Date. Borrower hereby acknowledges that
it has had an opportunity to obtain a lawyer's advice concerning the legal
consequences of each of the provisions of this General Release.

     (d) Borrower hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees that: (i) none of
the provisions of this General Release shall be construed as or constitute an
admission of any liability on the part of Bank; (ii) the provisions of this
General Release shall constitute an absolute bar to any Released Claim of any
kind, whether any such Released Claim is based on contract, tort, warranty,
mistake or any other theory, whether legal, statutory or equitable; and (iii)
any attempt to assert a Released Claim barred by the provisions of this General
Release shall subject Borrower to the provisions of applicable law setting forth
the remedies for the bringing of groundless, frivolous or baseless claims or
causes of action.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
executed as of the day and year first written above.
