      Borrower shall pay the Lender interest on all Advances at the rate(s) per annum
      as in effect from time to time in accordance with the Revolving Credit Note.
      Such interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each
      calendar month and on the Maturity Date, and shall be computed on the daily
      unpaid balance of all Advances made under the Borrower's revolving credit loan
      accounts with the Lender, based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year,
      counting the actual number of days elapsed. The Borrower hereby authorizes
      the
      Lender to charge the Borrower's revolving credit loan accounts for all such
      interest; provided,
      however,
      that the
      Lender shall be under no obligation to make any such charge to the Borrower’s
      revolving credit loan accounts (including, without limitation, if there is
      insufficient Availability at the time such interest is due and
      payable).

    (d) In
      the
      event and to the extent that, at any time, the outstanding principal amount
      of
      Advances exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect, then the
      Borrower shall immediately, without notice or demand, make a payment to the
      Lender in respect of the Advances in an amount sufficient to cause the
      outstanding principal amount of Advances to be equal to or less than the
      Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect.

     

    (e) Unless
      sooner due and payable by reason of an Event of Default or Sale having occurred,
      the Borrower shall pay in full all of the Obligations to the Lender in respect
      of all Advances on or prior to the Maturity Date. Anything elsewhere contained
      herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that and at such time
      as
      the Term Loan shall be repaid or be required to be repaid in full, the Revolving
      Credit Commitment shall thereupon terminate and all outstanding Advances, all
      accrued interest thereon and all other outstanding Obligations (including,
      without limitation, prorated accrued Commitment Fees and Unused Commitment
      Fees)
      shall be immediately due and payable, without requirement of any notice or
      demand.

     

    (f) All
      Advances shall be evidenced by a secured Revolving Credit Note of the Borrower
      payable to the order of the Lender.

     

    (g) In
      the
      event and to the extent that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall
      receive payment in respect of any indemnification claim under the Acquisition
      Agreement, the Maximum Revolver Amount shall thereupon automatically be reduced
      by an amount equal to the amount of such indemnification payment received,
      and
      (i) the Borrower shall immediately give written notice to the Lender upon
      receipt of such indemnification payment, stating the date and amount of such
      payment, and (ii) the Borrower shall, if and to the extent required pursuant
      to
      Section 2.01(d) above, make a payment to the Lender in respect of the Advances
      in an amount sufficient to cause the outstanding principal amount of Advances
      to
      be equal to or less than the reduced Revolving Credit Commitment.

     

    (h) The
      Borrower may, at its option, terminate the Revolving Credit Commitment at any
      time upon ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice, and paying to the
      Lender, on the date fixed for termination, an amount equal to the sum of (i)
      all
      outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Advances, and (ii) prorated
      accrued Commitment Fees and Unused Commitment Fees.

     

    Section
      2.02. Term Loan.

     

    (a) Subject
      at
      all times to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lender
      hereby agrees to extend to the Borrower a Term Loan in the principal amount
      of
      $5,000,000. The Term Loan shall be borrowed in a single borrowing on the Closing
      Date, and any principal amounts repaid in respect of the Term Loan may not
      be
      reborrowed.

     

    (b) The
      Term
      Loan shall be repayable in installments, in accordance with the schedules of
      payments set forth in the Term Note. The Borrower shall be required to prepay
      the Term Loan (i) in full simultaneously with the consummation of any Sale,
      and
      (ii) in whole or in part from time to time in the event and to the extent of
      50%
      of any Qualified Proceeds received by the Borrower from time to time. Any
      prepayment required under the foregoing clause (ii) shall be due and payable
      as
      and when the amount of Qualified Proceeds is determined (i.e., upon receipt
      of
      such Qualified Proceeds in the event that no acquisition transaction is then
      pending, or thirty (30) days after receipt of such Qualified Proceeds to the
      extent that such Qualified Proceeds are not applied to the purchase price and/or
      related expenses of a consummated business acquisition). 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        13

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (c) The
      Borrower shall pay the Lender interest on the principal balance of the Term
      Loan
      at the rate(s) per annum as in effect from time to time in accordance with
      the
      Term Note. Such interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last day
      of
      each calendar month and on the Maturity Date, and shall be computed on the
      daily
      unpaid balance of the Term Loan, based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year,
      counting the actual number of days elapsed. The Borrower hereby authorizes
      the
      Lender to charge the Borrower’s revolving credit loan accounts for all such
      interest and/or for any or all principal amounts due and payable in respect
      of
      the Term Loans; provided,
      however,
      that the
      Lender shall be under no obligation to make any such charge to the Borrower’s
      revolving credit loan accounts (including, without limitation, if there is
      insufficient Availability at the time such interest and/or principal is due
      and
      payable). 

     

    (d) The
      Term
      Loan shall be evidenced by a secured Convertible Term Note of the Borrower
      payable to the order of the Lender.

     

    Section
      2.03. Fees and Premiums.

     

    (a) The
      Borrower shall pay the Closing Fees to the Lender on the Closing Date. The
      Closing Fees shall be deemed fully earned on the Closing Date and shall not
      be
      refundable in whole or in part and shall not be subject to reduction or set-off
      under any circumstances.

     

    (b) The
      Borrower shall further pay to the Lender, in respect of the Revolving Credit
      Commitment:

     

    (i) in
      advance
      on the Closing Date and on the first (1st)
      Business
      Day of each calendar month prior to (A) the Maturity Date, or (B) the earlier
      termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and payment of the Obligations
      thereon in accordance with this Agreement, a collateral monitoring and
      administrative fee in the amount of $1,000 per month or portion
      thereof;

     

    (ii) on
      the
      last day of each calendar month, and upon any early termination of the Revolving
      Credit Commitment, the Unused Commitment Fee; and

     

    (iii) on
      April
      30 of each year commencing April 30, 2008, and upon any early termination of
      the
      Revolving Credit Commitment (appropriately prorated in such latter case), an
      annual Commitment Fee in the amount of $30,000.

     

    (c) In
      the
      event of any prepayment of all or any portion of the Term Loan, in addition
      to
      the payment of the subject principal amount and all unpaid accrued interest
      thereon, the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Lender a prepayment
      premium in an amount equal to two (2%) percent of the principal amount being
      prepaid; provided,
      however,
      that no
      such prepayment premium shall be required with respect to any required
      prepayment out of Qualified Proceeds.

     

    (d) Payments
      received in respect of the Obligations after 12:00 Noon on any day shall be
      deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day, and if any payment
      is
      received other than by wire transfer of immediately available funds, such
      payment shall be subject to three (3) Business Days’ clearance prior to being
      credited to the Obligations for interest calculation purposes.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        14

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (e) In
      the
      event that the Lender notifies the Borrower that the Lender is ready, willing
      and able to fund the Loan on substantially the terms of this Agreement and
      the
      Closing Date has not occurred within thirty (30) days thereafter other than
      due
      to the fault of the Lender, then the Lender may, at any time thereafter until
      the Closing Date, terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Borrower,
      in
      which event the Borrower shall (i) immediately pay to the Lender an amount
      equal
      to all out-of-pocket costs, charges and expenses (up to an aggregate maximum
      of
      $37,500) incurred by the Lender in respect of the transactions contemplated
      by
      this Agreement, and (ii) further pay to the Lender, if, as and when the
      transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement are consummated within
      one (1) year after the expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) day period,
      an
      additional fee in the amount of $125,000. This Section 2.03(e) shall survive
      any
      termination of this Agreement. 

     

    Section
      2.04. Use of Proceeds.
      The
      Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Loans solely (a) to repay and retire
      the Borrower’s existing loan facility with the Existing Lender, (b) to loan
      and/or contribute funds to QR-Italy to be utilized by QR-Italy to pay a portion
      of the purchase price payable under the Acquisition Agreement, and (c) for
      working capital and other general corporate purposes of the
      Borrower.

     

    Section
      2.05. Further Obligations.
      With
      respect to all Obligations for which the interest rate is not otherwise
      specified herein (whether such Obligations arise hereunder, pursuant to the
      Notes or Security Documents, or otherwise), such Obligations shall bear interest
      at the rate(s) in effect from time to time pursuant to the Revolving Credit
      Note.

     

    Section
      2.06. Application of Payments.
      All
      amounts paid to or received by the Lender in respect of the Loans from whatever
      source (whether from the Borrower, any Subsidiary pursuant to the Guaranty
      Agreement, any realization upon any Collateral, or otherwise) shall, unless
      otherwise directed by the Borrower with respect to any particular payment
      (unless an Event of Default shall then be continuing, in which event the Lender
      may disregard the Borrower’s direction), be applied (a) first, to reimburse the
      Lender for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender which
      are
      reimbursable to the Lender in accordance with this Agreement, the Notes and/or
      any of the other Loan Documents, (b) next, to any accrued but unpaid fees or
      prepayment premiums, and amounts payable under Section 2.2(c) of the
      Registration Rights Agreement, (c) next, to unpaid accrued interest on the
      Term
      Loan, (d) next, to unpaid accrued interest on the Advances, (e) next, to the
      outstanding principal of the Term Loan, to the extent then due and payable,
      (f)
      next, to the outstanding principal of the Advances, and (g) finally, to the
      payment of any other outstanding Obligations; and after payment in full of
      the
      Obligations, any further amounts paid to or received by the Lender in respect
      of
      the Loans shall be paid over to the Borrower or such other Person(s) as may
      be
      legally entitled thereto.

     

    Section
      2.07. Sale.
      Anything
      elsewhere contained in this Agreement and/or the Notes to the contrary
      notwithstanding, the Revolving Credit commitment shall terminate and all

      any
      notice or demand, upon the consummation of any Sale.

    Section
      2.08. Obligations Unconditional.
      

     

    (a) The
      payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and
      unconditional obligations of the Borrower, and shall be independent of any
      defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim which the Borrower
      might otherwise have against the Lender. All payments required by this Agreement
      and/or the Notes shall be paid free of any deductions or withholdings for any
      taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off. If the
      Borrower is required by law to make such a deduction or withholding from a
      payment hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount
      as is necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or
      withholding, the Lender receives (free from any liability in respect of any
      such
      deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have
      received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or
      required to be made. The Borrower shall (i) pay the full amount of any deduction
      or withholding, which it is required to make by-law, to the relevant authority
      within the payment period set by the relevant law, and (ii) promptly after
      any
      such payment, deliver to the Lender an original (or certified copy) official
      receipt issued by the relevant authority in respect of the amount withheld
      or
      deducted or, if the relevant authority does not issue such official receipts,
      such other evidence of payment of the amount withheld or deducted as is
      reasonably acceptable to the Lender.

     

    (b) If,
      at any
      time and from time to time after the Closing Date, (i) any change in any
      existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or
      application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted
      or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by the Lender with any request
      or
      directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental
      authority (A) subjects the Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction,
      assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any
      Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of
      any
      amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes
      imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or
      local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment fees or other
      fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income
      of the Lender or its members), or (B) imposes on the Lender any other condition
      or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby
      or
      participations therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
      the cost to the Lender of making or continuing any Loan or to reduce any amount
      receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay
      to
      the Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender, on an
      after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by
      the
      Lender. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant
      to this Section 2.08(b), the Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the
      event by reason of which the Lender has become so entitled, and each such notice
      of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.08(b) submitted by
      the
      Lender to the Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and
      binding for all purposes.

     

    Section
      2.09. Reversal of Payments.
      To the
      extent that any payment or payments made to or received by the Lender pursuant
      to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated,
      declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid
      to any trustee, receiver or other person under any state or federal bankruptcy
      or other such law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts shall be revived
      as
      Obligations and continue in full force and effect hereunder as if such payment
      or payments had not been received by the Lender.

    III. REPRESENTATIONS
      AND WARRANTIES

     

    As
      of the
      Closing Date and on each Borrowing Date (unless the representation and warranty
      refers to a specific date), the Borrower hereby makes the following
      representations and warranties to the Lender, all of which representations
      and
      warranties shall survive the Closing Date, the delivery of the Notes and the
      making of the Loans, shall be continuing in nature so long as any Obligations
      are outstanding or the Revolving Credit Commitment remains in effect, and are
      as
      follows:

     

    Section
      3.01. Financial Matters.

     

    (a) The
      Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lender (i) the audited consolidated
      financial statements (including balance sheets, statements of income and
      statements of cash flows) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at June 30,
      2005 and 2006, and for the Fiscal Years then ended, and (ii) the unaudited
      consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of
      December 31, 2006 and for the six (6) months then ended (collectively, the
      “Financial
      Statements”).

     

    (b) The
      Financial Statements (i) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and
      Regulation S-X promulgated under the Act on a consistent basis for all periods
      (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to the absence of full footnote
      disclosures, and to normal non-material audit adjustments), (ii) are complete
      and correct in all material respects, (iii) fairly present the consolidated
      financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of said dates,
      and
      the results of their operations for the periods stated, (iv) contain and reflect
      all necessary adjustments and accruals for a fair presentation of the Borrower’s
      and its Subsidiaries’ consolidated financial condition and results of operations
      as of the dates of and for the periods covered by such Financial Statements,
      and
      (v) make full and adequate provision, subject to and in accordance with GAAP,
      for the various assets and liabilities (including, without limitation, deferred
      revenues) of the Borrower, fixed or contingent, and the results of their
      operations and transactions in their accounts, as of the dates and for the
      periods referred to therein.

     

    (c) Except
      as
      set forth in Schedule
      3.01
      of the
      Disclosure Schedule, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries have
      any
      liabilities, obligations or commitments of any kind or nature whatsoever,
      whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise (collectively “Liabilities
      and Contingencies”),
      including, without limitation, Liabilities and Contingencies under employment
      agreements and with respect to any “earn-outs”, stock appreciation rights, or
      related compensation obligations, except: (i) Liabilities and Contingencies
      disclosed in the Financial Statements or footnotes thereto, (ii) Liabilities
      and
      Contingencies incurred in the ordinary course of business and consistent with
      past practice since the date of the most recent Financial Statements, or (iii)
      those Liabilities and Contingencies which are not required to be disclosed
      under
      GAAP. The reserves, if any, reflected on the balance sheet included in the
      most
      recent Financial Statements are appropriate and reasonable. Neither the Borrower
      nor any of its Subsidiaries have any Indebtedness for money borrowed,
      outstanding obligations for the purchase price of property, contingent
      obligations or liabilities for taxes, or any unusual forward or long-term
      commitments, except as specifically set forth or provided for in the Financial
      Statements or in Schedule
      3.01
      of the
      Disclosure Schedule.

     

    (d) Since
      the
      date of the most recent Financial Statements, except as set forth in
Schedule
      3.01
      of the
      Disclosure Schedule, there has been no material adverse change in the working
      capital, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, liabilities, reserves,
      business, management, operations or prospects of the Borrower or any of its
      Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the following:

     

    (i) there
      has
      been no material change in any assumptions underlying, or in any methods of
      calculating, any bad debt, contingency or other reserve relating to the Borrower
      or any Subsidiary;

     

    
      
         

      

      
        17

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (ii) there
      have
      been (A) no material write-downs in the value of any inventory of, and there
      have been no write-offs as uncollectible of any notes, accounts receivable
      or
      other receivables of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary other than write-offs
      of
      accounts receivable reserved in full as of the date of the most recent financial
      statements delivered to the Lender, and (B) no reserves established for the
      uncollectibility of any notes, Accounts or other receivables of the Borrower
      or
      any Subsidiary except to the extent that same have been disclosed to the Lender
      in writing and would not, individually or in the aggregate, cause the
      outstanding Advances to exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment;

     

    (iii) no
      debts
      have been cancelled, no claims or rights of substantial value have been waived
      and no properties or assets (real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible)
      have been sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by the Borrower or any
      Subsidiary except in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past
      practice;

     

    (iv) there
      has
      been no change in any method of accounting or accounting practice utilized
      by
      the Borrower or any Subsidiary;

     

    (v) no
      material casualty, loss or damage has been suffered by the Borrower or any
      Subsidiary, regardless of whether such casualty, loss or damage is or was
      covered by insurance; 

     

    (vi) Any
      announced changes in the policies or practices of any customer, supplier or
      referral source which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
      Effect;

      binding obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries party thereto,
      enforceable against the Borrower and such Subsidiaries in accordance with their
      respective terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by
      bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moretorium, fraudulent transfer or
      other
      similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally,
      and by general principles of equity.

      or commitment of the Borrower. Upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance
      with
      the terms thereof, the Warrant Shares (as such term is defined in the Warrants)

      to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower
      or any of the Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets, which, if
      adversely determined, would have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has
      no
      Knowledge of any state of facts, events, conditions or circumstances which
      are
      reasonably likely to give rise to, or would properly constitute grounds for
      or
      the basis of, any suit, action, arbitration, proceeding or investigation
      (including, without limitation, any unfair labor practice charges, interference
      with union organizing activities, or other labor or employment claims) against
      or with respect to the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

     

    Section
      3.05. Material Contracts.
      Except
      as disclosed on Schedule
      3.05
      of the

      a
      party to any Contract, agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or
      other corporate or organizational restriction which has had or could reasonably
      be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) subject to any liability
      or
      obligation under or relating to any collective bargaining agreement, or (c)

      default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations,
      covenants or conditions contained in any Contract, agreement or instrument
      to
      which it is a party or by which any of its assets or properties is bound, which

      Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries has good title to all of its properties
      and assets, free and clear of all mortgages, security interests, restrictions,
      encumbrances or other Liens of any kind, except for restrictions on the nature
      of use thereof imposed by Applicable Law, and except for Permitted Liens, none
      of which materially interfere with the use and enjoyment of such properties
      and
      assets in the normal course of the Business Operations as presently conducted,
      or materially impair the value of such properties and assets for the purpose
      of
      such business.

    Section
      3.07. Real Property.
      Schedule
      3.07
      of the
      Disclosure Schedule sets forth a correct and complete list of all Real
      Properties leased or occupied by the Borrower on the date of this Agreement.
      The
      Borrower does not own any Real Properties. The Borrower has a valid lessee’s
      interest in each Real Property currently leased or occupied by the Borrower.
      Neither the Borrower nor, to the Borrower’s Knowledge, any other party thereto,
      is in material breach or violation of any requirements of any such lease; and
      such Real Properties are in good condition (reasonable wear and tear excepted)
      and are adequate for the current and proposed businesses of the Borrower. To
      the
      Borrower’s Knowledge, its use of the Real Properties in the normal conduct of
      the Business Operations does not violate any applicable building, zoning or
      other law, ordinance or regulation affecting such Real Properties, and no
      covenants, easements, rights-of-way or other such conditions of record impair
      the Borrower’s use of the Real Properties in the normal conduct of the Business
      Operations.

     

    Section

      of good maintenance and repair (reasonable wear and tear excepted), and adequate
      for its use in the Business Operations.

     

    Section

      or
      acquired in compliance with this Agreement, the Borrower does not, directly
      or
      indirectly, own any capital stock of or any form of equity interest in any
      other
      Person.

     

    Section
      3.10. Solvency.
      After
      giving effect to the Loans and the other transactions contemplated hereby,
      the
      borrowings made and/or to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement do not
      and will not render the Borrower insolvent or with unreasonably small capital
      for its business; the fair saleable value of all of the assets and properties
      of
      the Borrower does now, and will, upon the funding of the Loans contemplated
      hereby, exceed the aggregate liabilities and Indebtedness of the Borrower
      (including contingent liabilities); the Borrower is not contemplating either
      the
      filing of a petition under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law,
      or
      the liquidation of all or any substantial portion of its assets or property;
      the
      Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such
      petition against the Borrower; and the Borrower reasonably anticipates that
      it
      will be able to pay its debts as they mature.

     

    Section
      3.11. No Investment Company.
      The
      Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an
“investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of
      1940, as amended.

     

    Section
      3.12. Margin Securities.
      The
      Borrower does not own or have any present intention of acquiring any “margin
      security” or any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulations G, T, U or X
      of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (herein called “margin
      security” and “margin stock”). None of the proceeds of the Loans will be used,
      directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying, or for the
      purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred
      to purchase or carry, any margin security or margin stock or for any other
      purpose which might constitute the transactions contemplated hereby a “purpose
      credit” within the meaning of said Regulations G, T, U or X, or cause this
      Agreement to violate any other regulation of the Board of Governors of the
      Federal Reserve System or the Exchange Act, or any rules or regulations
      promulgated under such statutes.

    Section
      3.13. Taxes.

      federal, state and local tax returns and tax reports required to be filed by
      the
      Borrower and/or any Subsidiary have been timely filed with the appropriate
      governmental agencies in all jurisdictions in which such returns and reports
      are
      required to be filed, and all of such tax returns, tax reports and other filings
      are correct and complete in all material respects. All federal, state and local
      income, franchise, sales, use, property, excise, ad valorem, value-added,
      payroll and other taxes (including interest, penalties and additions to tax
      and
      including estimated tax installments where required to be filed and paid) due
      from or with respect to the Borrower and the Subsidiaries have been fully paid,
      and appropriate accruals have been made on the Borrower’s books for taxes not
      yet due and payable. All taxes and other assessments and levies which the
      Borrower and/or any Subsidiary is required by law to withhold or to collect
      have
      been duly withheld and collected, and have been paid over to the proper
      governmental authorities to the extent due and payable. Except as set forth
      in
Schedule
      3.13

      Disclosure Schedule, the Borrower has no Knowledge and has not received notice
      of any pending audit with respect to any federal, state or local tax returns
      of
      the Borrower or any Subsidiary, and no waivers of statutes of limitations have
      been given or requested with respect to any tax years or tax filings of the
      Borrower or any Subsidiary.

     

    Section
      3.14. ERISA.
      Except
      as set forth in Schedule
      3.14
      of the
      Disclosure Schedule, neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate of the
      Borrower maintains or has any obligation to make any contributions to any
      pension, profit sharing or other similar plan providing for deferred
      compensation to any employee. With respect to any such plan(s) as may now exist

      Borrower, and which constitutes an “employee pension benefit plan” within the
      meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA, except as set forth on Schedule
      3.14
      of the

      or assigns, (c) the present value of all accrued benefits thereunder shall
      not
      at any time exceed the value of the assets of such plan(s) allocable to such
      accrued benefits, (d) there have not been and there shall not be any
      transactions such as would cause the imposition of any tax or penalty under
      Section 4975 of the Code or under Section 502 of ERISA, which would adversely
      affect the funded benefits attributable to the Borrower or the subject ERISA
      Affiliate, (e) there has not been and there shall not be any termination or
      partial termination thereof (other than a partial termination resulting solely
      from a reduction in the number of employees of the Borrower or an ERISA
      Affiliate of the Borrower, which reduction is not anticipated by the Borrower),
      and there has not been and there shall not be any “reportable event” (as such
      term is defined in Section 4043(b) of ERISA) on or after the effective date
      of
      Section 4043(b) of ERISA with respect to any such plan(s) subject to Title
      IV of
      ERISA, (f) no “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 412 of the
      Code) has been or shall be incurred on or after the effective date of Section

      or any ERISA Affiliate thereof has heretofore been, is now, or may hereafter
      be
      required to make contributions, the Borrower or such ERISA Affiliate has made
      and shall make all required contributions thereto, and there has not been and

      are respectively defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA) therefrom on the
      part of the Borrower or such ERISA Affiliate.

      in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lender may, at any time
      and from time to time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity
      of any Obligations, transfer, assign or grant participating interests in the
      Loans as the Lender shall in its sole discretion determine, to such other
      Persons (the “Participants”)
      as the
      Lender may determine. Upon any such transfer, assignment or granting of
      participating interests, the Participants shall be deemed to be included within
      the term “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement, subject to such agreements
      and arrangements as the Lender and the Participants may agree upon.
      Notwithstanding the granting of any such participating interests: (a) the
      Borrower shall look solely to the Lender for all purposes of this Agreement
      and
      the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) the Borrower shall at all times have
      the right to rely upon any waivers or consents signed by the Lender as being
      binding upon all of the Participants, and (c) all communications in respect
      of
      this Agreement and such transactions shall remain solely between the Borrower
      and the Lender (exclusive of Participants) hereunder.

     

    Section
      8.02. Transfer and Assignment.
      Anything
      in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lender may, at any time
      and from time to time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity
      of any Obligations, transfer and assign all or any portion of its interest
      in
      this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to any Person (an
“Assignee
      Lender”)
      as the
      Lender may determine. Upon any such transfer or assignment, the Assignee Lender
      shall be deemed to succeed (to the extent of the interest assigned) to the
      rights and obligations of the Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. In
      the
      event of any transfer and assignment of the Lender’s entire interest in this
      Agreement, the Notes and the Security Documents, the Lender shall be replaced
      by
      the Assignee Lender as “Secured Party” under the Collateral Agreement and all
      other Security Documents.

      making by the Lender of the Loans and the execution and delivery to the Lender
      of the Notes, and shall continue in full force and effect for so long as the
      Notes or any other Obligations are outstanding and unpaid or the Revolving
      Credit Commitment remains outstanding. Whenever in this Agreement any of the
      parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the
      successors and permitted assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises
      and
      agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on behalf of the Borrower shall
      inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Lender.

     

    Section

      The
      Borrower shall indemnify the Lender and its directors, officers, employees,

      Borrower; (b) this Agreement, the ownership and operation of the Borrower’s and
      any Subsidiary’s assets, including all Real Properties and improvements or any
      Contract, the performance by the Borrower or any other Person of their
      respective obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement; (c) any finder’s fee, brokerage commission of
      other such obligation payable or alleged to be payable in respect of the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement which arises or is alleged to arise
      from any agreement, action or conduct of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates,

      of
      the foregoing, whether or not the Lender or its directors, officers, managers,
      employees, attorneys or agents are a party thereto; provided
      that such
      indemnity shall not apply to any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
      or
      related expenses arising from (i) any unexcused breach by the Lender of any
      of
      its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the willful misconduct or gross
      negligence of the Lender as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment
      of a
      court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) the breach of any commitment or legal
      obligation of the Lender to any Person other than the Borrower or its
      Affiliates, provided
      that such
      breach is determined pursuant to a final and nonappealable decision of a court
      of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing indemnity shall remain operative and
      in
      full force and effect regardless of the expiration or any termination of this
      Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
      the repayment of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term
      or
      provision of any Loan Document, any investigation made by or on behalf of the
      Lender, and the content or accuracy of any representation or warranty made
      by
      the Borrower or any Subsidiary in any Loan Document. All amounts due under
      this
      Section 9.02 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

      shall
      operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof
      preclude any other or future exercise, or the exercise of any other right,
      power
      or privilege.

      Agreement made by Dent-x International Inc., QR Imaging USA Inc., and Visiplex
      Instruments Corporation in favor of ComVest Capital , LLC, dated April 13,
      2007

     

    GUARANTY
      AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, this
“Guaranty”
or
      this
“Agreement”),
      dated
      as of April 13, 2007, is made by DENT-X INTERNATIONAL INC., a New York
      corporation (“Dent-X”),
      QR
      IMAGING USA, INC., a New York corporation (“QR-USA”),
      and
      VISIPLEX INSTRUMENTS CORPORATION, a New York corporation (“Visiplex”)
      (each a
“Guarantor”
and
      collectively the “Guarantors”),
      in
      favor of COMVEST CAPITAL, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Lender”).

     

    STATEMENT
      OF PURPOSE

     

    Pursuant
      to the terms of the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement of even date
      herewith by and between (the “Borrower”)
      and the
      Lender (as same may be amended, modified, supplemented and/or restated from
      time
      to time, the “Loan
      Agreement”),
      the
      Lender has agreed to make Loans to the Borrower in the principal amount of
      up to
      $8,000,000 at any time outstanding, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
      set forth therein.

     

    Each
      of
      the Guarantors is a direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Borrower.

     

    The
      Borrower and the Guarantors, though separate legal entities, comprise one
      integrated financial enterprise, and the Loans will inure, directly or
      indirectly, to the benefit of each of the Guarantors.

     

    It
      is a
      condition precedent to the obligation of the Lender to make the Loans under
      the
      Loan Agreement that the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this
      Guaranty to the Lender.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
      of
      which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, and to induce the Lender
      to
      enter into the Loan Agreement and to make the Loans thereunder, the Guarantors
      hereby agree with the Lender as follows:

      following terms when used in this Guaranty shall have the meanings assigned
      to
      them below:

     

    “Additional
      Guarantor”
means
      each direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower which hereafter
      becomes a Guarantor pursuant to Section

      hereof
      and Section

      of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended or supplemented).

      particular provision of this Guaranty, and Section references are to this
      Guaranty unless otherwise specified. The meanings given to terms defined herein
      shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

      thereof, when used in relation to a Guarantor, shall refer to such Guarantor’s
      Collateral or the relevant part thereof. The word “including” and words of

      thereof (all such Obligations of the Borrower being hereafter collectively
      referred to as the “Guaranteed
      Obligations”).

     

    SECTION
      2.2  Bankruptcy
      Limitations on Guarantors.
      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section
      2.1,
      it is
      the intention of each Guarantor and the Lender that, in any proceeding involving
      the bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of
      debtors, dissolution or insolvency or any similar proceeding with respect to
      any
      Guarantor or its assets, the amount of such Guarantor’s obligations with respect
      to the Guaranteed Obligations shall be equal to, but not in excess of, the
      maximum amount thereof not subject to avoidance or recovery by operation of
      Applicable Insolvency Laws after giving effect to Section
      2.3.
      To that
      end, but only in the event and to the extent that after giving effect to
Section
      2.3
      such
      Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any
      payment made pursuant to such Guaranteed Obligations would, but for the
      operation of the first sentence of this Section
      2.2,
      be
      subject to avoidance or recovery in any such proceeding under Applicable
      Insolvency Laws after giving effect to Section
      2.3,
      the
      amount of such Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed
      Obligations shall be limited to the largest amount which, after giving effect
      thereto, would not, under Applicable Insolvency Laws, render such Guarantor’s
      obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations unenforceable or
      avoidable or otherwise subject to recovery under Applicable Insolvency Laws.
      To
      the extent any payment actually made pursuant to the Guaranteed Obligations
      exceeds the limitation of the first sentence of this Section
      2.2
      and is
      otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding under
      Applicable Insolvency Laws, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events
      be limited to the amount by which such actual payment exceeds such limitation
      and the Guaranteed Obligations as limited by the first sentence of this
Section
      2.2
      shall in
      all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against
      such
      Guarantor. The first sentence of this Section 2.2 is intended solely to preserve
      the rights of the Lender hereunder against such Guarantor in such proceeding
      to
      the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Insolvency Laws and neither such
      Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Guarantor nor any other Person shall have
      any
      right or claim under such sentence that would not otherwise be available under
      Applicable Insolvency Laws in such proceeding.

    SECTION
      2.3  Agreements
      for Contribution.(a)  To
      the
      extent that any Guarantor is required, by reason of its obligations hereunder,
      to pay to the Lender an amount greater than the amount of value (as determined
      in accordance with Applicable Insolvency Laws) actually made available to or
      for
      the benefit of such Guarantor on account of the Loan Agreement, this Guaranty
      or
      any other Loan Document, such Guarantor shall have an enforceable right of
      contribution against the remaining Guarantors, and the remaining Guarantors
      shall be jointly and severally liable for repayment of the full amount of such
      excess payment. Subject only to the subordination provided in Section
      2.3(d),
      such
      Guarantor further shall be subrogated to any and all rights of the Lender
      against the Borrower and the remaining Guarantors to the extent of such excess
      payment.

     

    (b)  To
      the
      extent that any Guarantor would, but for the operation of this Section 2.3
      and by
      reason of its obligations hereunder or its obligations to other Guarantors
      under
      this Section
      2.3,
      be
      rendered insolvent for any purpose under Applicable Insolvency Laws, each of
      the
      Guarantors hereby agrees to indemnify such Guarantor and commits to make a
      contribution to such Guarantor’s capital in an amount at least equal to the
      amount necessary to prevent such Guarantor from having been rendered insolvent
      by reason of the incurrence of any such obligations.

     

    (c)  To
      the
      extent that any Guarantor would, but for the operation of this Section 2.3,
      be
      rendered insolvent under any Applicable Insolvency Law by reason of its
      incurring of obligations to any other Guarantor under the foregoing Sections
      2.3(a)
      and
(b),
      such
      Guarantor shall, in turn, have rights of contribution to the full extent
      provided in the foregoing Sections
      2.3(a)
      and
(b)
      against
      the remaining Guarantors, such that all obligations of all of the Guarantors
      hereunder and under this Section 2.3
      shall be
      allocated in a manner such that no Guarantor shall be rendered insolvent for
      any
      purpose under Applicable Insolvency Law by reason of its incurrence of such
      obligations.

     

    (d)  Notwithstanding
      any payment or payments by any of the Guarantors hereunder, or any set-off
      or
      application of funds of any of the Guarantors by the Lender, or the receipt
      of
      any amounts by the Lender with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
      none of the Guarantors shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights
      of the Lender against the Borrower or the other Guarantors or against any
      collateral security held by the Lender for the payment of the Guaranteed
      Obligations, nor shall any of the Guarantors seek any reimbursement from the
      Borrower or any of the other Guarantors in respect of payments made by such
      Guarantor in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, until all amounts
      owing
      to the Lender on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and
      the
      Revolving Credit Commitment has been terminated. If any amount shall be paid
      to
      any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of
      the
      Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full or the Revolving Credit
      Commitment has not terminated, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor
      in
      trust for the benefit of the Lender, segregated from other funds of such
      Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over
      to the Lender in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly endorsed by
      such Guarantor to the Lender, if required) to be applied against the Guaranteed
      Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in the order set forth in the Loan
      Agreement.

    SECTION
      2.4  Nature
      of Guaranty.(a)  Each
      Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a continuing, unconditional guaranty
      of
      payment and performance and not of collection, and that its obligations under
      this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of,
      and
      unaffected by:

     

    (i)  the
      genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of,
      or
      change in, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement,
      document or instrument to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is or may become
      a party;

     

    (ii)  the
      absence of any action to enforce this Guaranty, the Loan Agreement or any other
      Loan Document or the waiver or consent by the Lender with respect to any of
      the
      provisions of this Guaranty, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan
      Document;

     

    (iii)  the
      existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect any Lien against, any
      security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations or any action,
      or
      the absence of any action, by the Lender in respect of such security or guaranty
      (including, without limitation, the release of any such security or guaranty);
      or

     

    (iv)  any
      other
      action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
      discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor;

     

    it
      being
      agreed by each Guarantor that, subject to the first sentence of Section
      2.2,
      its
      obligations under this Guaranty shall not be discharged until the final
      indefeasible payment and performance, in full, of the Guaranteed
      Obligations.

     

    (b)  Each
      Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that its obligations under this
      Guaranty are not and shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or
      defenses of any kind against the Lender or the Borrower, whether now existing
      or
      which may arise in the future.

     

    (c)  Each
      Guarantor hereby agrees and acknowledges that the
      Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have
      been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived,
      in reliance upon this Guaranty, and all dealings between the Borrower and any
      of
      the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Lender, on the other hand, likewise
      shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance
      upon
      this Guaranty.

     

    SECTION
      2.5  Waivers.
      To the
      extent permitted by law, each Guarantor expressly waives all of the following
      rights and defenses (and agrees not to take advantage of or assert any such
      right or defense):

     

    (a)  any
      rights
      it may now or in the future have under any statute, or at law or in equity,
      or
      otherwise, to compel the Lender to proceed in respect of the Obligations against
      the Borrower or any other Person or against any security for or other guaranty
      of the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations before proceeding
      against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor;

     

    (b)  any
      defense based upon the failure of the Lender to commence an action in respect
      of
      the Guaranteed Obligations against the Borrower, such Guarantor, any other
      guarantor or any other Person or any security for the payment and performance
      of
      the Guaranteed Obligations;

     

    
      
         

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (c)  any
      right
      to insist upon, plead or in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or
      advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshalling of assets
      or redemption laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force,
      which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by such Guarantor
      of its obligations under, or the enforcement by the Lender of this
      Guaranty;

     

    (d)  any
      right
      of diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice (except as specifically
      required herein) of whatever kind or nature with respect to any of the
      Guaranteed Obligations and waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law,
      the benefit of all provisions of law which are or might be in conflict with
      the
      terms of this Guaranty; and

     

    (e)  any
      and
      all right to notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of
      the
      Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Lender upon, or acceptance
      of, this Guaranty.

     

    Each
      Guarantor agrees that any notice or directive given at any time to the Lender
      which is inconsistent with any of the foregoing waivers shall be null and void
      and may be ignored by the Lender, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or
      introduced as evidence in any litigation relating to this Guaranty for the
      reason that such pleading or introduction would be at variance with the written
      terms of this Guaranty, unless the Lender has specifically agreed otherwise
      in
      writing. The foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction
      contemplated by the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, but for
      this Guaranty and such waivers, the Lender would decline to enter into the
      Loan
      Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     

    SECTION
      2.6  Modification
      of Loan Documents, etc.
      The
      Lender shall not incur any liability to any Guarantor as a result of any of
      the
      following, and none of the following shall impair, limit or release this
      Guaranty or any of the obligations of any Guarantor under this
      Guaranty:

     

    (a)  any
      change
      or extension of the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renewal or
      alteration of all or any portion of, the Guaranteed Obligations;

     

    (b)  any
      action
      under or in respect of the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents in the
      exercise of any remedy, power or privilege contained therein or available to
      any
      of them at law, in equity or otherwise, or waiver or refrain from exercising
      any
      such remedies, powers or privileges;

     

    (c)  any
      amendment or modification, in any manner whatsoever, of the Loan
      Documents;

     

    (d)  any
      extension or waiver of the time for performance by any Guarantor, any other
      guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person, or compliance with, any term,
      covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under a Loan
      Document, or waiver of such performance or compliance or consent to a failure
      of, or departure from, such performance or compliance;

     

    (e)  the
      taking
      and holding security or Collateral for the payment of the Obligations or the
      sale, exchange, release, disposal of, or other dealing with, any property
      pledged, mortgaged or conveyed, or in which the Lender has been granted a Lien,
      to secure any indebtedness of any Guarantor, any other guarantor or the Borrower
      to the Lender;

     

    (f)  the
      release of anyone who may be liable in any manner for the payment of any amounts
      owed by any Guarantor, any other guarantor or the Borrower to the Lender;
      or

     

    
      
         

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (g)  any
      modification or termination of any intercreditor or subordination agreement
      pursuant to which claims of other creditors of any Guarantor, any other
      guarantor or the Borrower are subordinated to the claims of the
      Lender.

     

    SECTION
      2.7  Demand
      by the Lender.
      In
      addition to the terms set forth in this Article II and in no manner imposing
      any
      limitation on such terms, if all or any portion of the then outstanding
      Guaranteed Obligations are declared to be immediately due and payable, then
      the
      Guarantors shall, upon demand in writing therefor by the Lender to the
      Guarantors, pay all or such portion of the outstanding Guaranteed Obligations
      then due and payable or declared due and payable.

     

    SECTION
      2.8  Remedies.
      Upon the
      occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Lender may
      enforce against the Guarantors their respective obligations and liabilities
      hereunder and exercise such other rights and remedies as may be available to
      the
      Lender hereunder, under the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or
      otherwise.

     

    SECTION
      2.9  Benefits
      of Guaranty.
      The
      provisions of this Guaranty are for the benefit of the Lender and its
      successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained
      shall impair, as between the Borrower and the Lender, the obligations of the
      Borrower under the Loan Documents. In the event that all or any part of the
      Obligations are transferred, endorsed or assigned by the Lender to any Person
      or
      Persons as permitted under the Loan Agreement, any reference to a “Lender”
herein shall be deemed to refer similarly and ratably to such Person or
      Persons.

     

    SECTION
      2.10  Termination;
      Reinstatement.(a)  Subject
      to
Section
      2.10(c)
      below,
      this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until all the Guaranteed
      Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.

     

    (b)  No
      payment
      made by the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person received or collected
      by the Lender from the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person by virtue
      of
      any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at
      any
      time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed
      Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect
      the
      liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such
      payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the
      obligations of the Guarantors or any payment received or collected from such
      Guarantor in respect of the obligations of the Guarantors), remain liable for
      the obligations of the Guarantors up
      to the
      maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Guaranteed Obligations
      shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.

     

    (c)  Each
      Guarantor agrees that, if any payment made by the Borrower or any other Person
      applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, set aside, rescinded,
      invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required
      to
      be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be
      refunded by the Lender to the Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any
      other Person, including, without limitation, any Guarantor,
      under any Applicable Law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment
      or repayment, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder (and any Lien or Collateral
      securing such liability) shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully
      as if such payment had never been made, and, if prior thereto, this Guaranty
      shall have been canceled or surrendered (and if any Lien or Collateral securing
      such Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by
      virtue of such cancellation or surrender), this Guaranty (and such Lien or
      Collateral) shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior
      cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or
      otherwise affect the obligations of such Guarantor in respect of the amount
      of
      such payment (or any Lien or Collateral securing such obligation).

     

    SECTION
      2.11  Payments.
      Payments
      by the Guarantors shall be made to the Lender, to be credited and applied to
      the
      Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the Loan Agreement, in immediately
      available Dollars to the account designated by the Lender.

    ARTICLE
      III

     

    REPRESENTATIONS
      AND WARRANTIES

     

    To
      induce
      the Lender to make the Loans, each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants
      that:

     

    SECTION
      3.1  Existence.
      Such
      Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
      laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the requisite
      power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on
      its
      business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly
      qualified and authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the
      character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such
      qualification and authorization and the failure to be so qualified would have
      a
      Material Adverse Effect.

     

    SECTION
      3.2  Authorization
      of Agreement; Enforceability.
      Such
      Guarantor has the right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
      this Guaranty and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational
      action to authorize its execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty.
      This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized
      officers of such Guarantor and this Guaranty constitutes the legal, valid and
      binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in
      accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by
      bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal
      debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement
      of
      creditors’ rights in general and the availability of equitable
      remedies.

     

    SECTION
      3.3  No
      Conflict; Consents.
      The
      execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty will
      not,
      by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, violate any material
      provision of any Applicable Law or contractual obligation of such Guarantor
      and
      will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect
      to any property or revenues of such Guarantor. No consent or
      authorization of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any arbitrator
      or governmental authority and no consent of any other Person (including, without
      limitation, any stockholder or creditor of such Guarantor), is required in
      connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability
      of this Guaranty.

     

    SECTION
      3.4  Litigation.
      No
      actions, suits or proceedings before any arbitrator or governmental authority
      are pending or, to the knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened by or against
      such Guarantor or against any of its properties with respect to this Guaranty
      or
      any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     

    SECTION
      3.5  Title
      to Assets.
      Such
      Guarantor has a valid leasehold interest in any and all real property leased
      by
      it, and has good title to all of its personal property sufficient to carry
      on
      its business free of any and all Liens of any type whatsoever, except Permitted
      Liens.

     

    SECTION
      3.6  Solvency.
      As of
      the Closing Date (or such later date upon which such Guarantor became a party
      hereto), such Guarantor (i) has capital sufficient to carry on its business
      and
      transactions and all business and transactions in which it engages and is able
      to pay its debts as they mature, (ii) owns property having a value, both at
      fair
      valuation on a going concern basis, and at present fair saleable value on a

      agreements in this Section

    SECTION
      4.4  Governing
      Law.
      This
      Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance

    SECTION

    (b)  The
      Guarantors hereby irrevocably waive any objection each may have now or in the
      future to the laying of venue in the aforesaid jurisdiction in any action,

      claim or proceeding, any plea or claim that the action, claim or proceeding

    SECTION
      4.6  Preservation
      of Remedies, Damages.

     

    (a)  Preservation
      of Certain Remedies.
      The
      parties hereto and the other Loan Documents preserve, without diminution,
      certain remedies that such Persons may employ or exercise freely, either alone,
      in conjunction with or during a dispute. Each such Person shall have and hereby
      reserves the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by
      self-help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (i)
      all rights to foreclose against any real or personal property or other security
      by exercising a power of sale granted in the Loan Documents or under Applicable
      Law or by judicial foreclosure and sale, including a proceeding to confirm
      the
      sale, (ii) all rights of self-help including peaceful occupation of property
      and
      collection of rents, set-off, and peaceful possession of property, (iii)
      obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies including injunctive relief,
      sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of receiver and in filing
      an
      involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, and (iv) when applicable, a judgment by
      confession of judgment. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power
      of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party
      in a
      dispute.

     

    (b)  No
      Punitive/Exemplary Damages.
      The
      Lender and each Guarantor hereby agree that no such Person shall have a remedy
      of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document
      and
      each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary
      damages that it may now have or may arise in the future in connection with
      any
      dispute hereunder or under any other Loan Document, whether such dispute is
      resolved through arbitration or judicially.

     

    SECTION
      4.7  Waiver
      of Jury Trial.
      TO
      THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE LENDER AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY
      IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY
      ACTION, CLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION
      WITH
      THIS GUARANTY, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS
      HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH RIGHTS AND
      OBLIGATIONS.

    SECTION
      4.8  No
      Waiver by Course of Conduct, Cumulative Remedies.
      The
      Lender shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to
Section 4.1),
      delay,
      indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
      hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure
      to exercise, nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Lender, any right,
      power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or
      partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude
      any
      other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
      or
      privilege. A waiver by the Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one
      occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Lender
      would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein
      provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not
      exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

     

    SECTION
      4.9  Successors
      and Assigns.
      This
      Guaranty shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each Guarantor
      (and shall bind all Persons who become bound as a Guarantor under this
      Guaranty), the Lender and their successors and assigns; provided
      that no
      Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations
      under this Guaranty without the prior written consent of all holders of
      Obligations.

     

    SECTION
      4.10  Severability.
      If any
      provision hereof is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid
      or
      unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by
      law,
(a)
      the
      other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such
      jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lender in order
      to
      carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible;
      and
      (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions hereof in any
      jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision
      in any other jurisdiction.

     

    SECTION
      4.11  Headings.
      The
      various section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference
      only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Guaranty or
      any
      provisions hereof.

     

    SECTION
      4.12  Counterparts.
      This
      Guaranty may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each
      of
      which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute
      together but one and the same agreement.

     

    SECTION
      4.13  Set-Off.
      Each
      Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender, at any time and from time
      to
      time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to such
      Guarantor or any other Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by
      each
      Guarantor, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general
      or
      special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other
      credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct
      or
      indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or
      owing by the Lender (or any agent of the Lender) to or for the credit or the
      account of such Guarantor, or any part thereof, in such amounts as the Lender
      may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such
      Guarantor to the Lender hereunder, as the Lender may elect, whether or not
      the
      Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations,
      liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Lender shall notify
      such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the
      Lender of the proceeds thereof; provided
      that the
      failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
      application. The rights of the Lender under this Section 4.13 are in addition
      to
      other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of
      set-off) which the Lender may have.

     

    SECTION
      4.14  Integration.
      This
      Guaranty and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Guarantors
      and the Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there
      are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Lender
      relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or
      referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.
