removed as aforesaid, on the Cancellation Date or such earlier time as may be
required pursuant to Paragraph 1 hereof, it is agreed that Tenant shall have no
further obligation to Owner under of by reason of the Lease accruing from and
after the Cancellation Date, or such earlier time as may be required pursuant to
Paragraph 1 hereof.

the understanding that it shall not bind the Owner unless and until it has been
executed by the Owner and delivered to the Tenant or Tenant's attorney and Owner
has received the payments provided for in Paragraphs 2 and 3 hereof.

        5. This Surrender of Lease shall be binding upon the parties hereto,
their successors and assigns.

        6. Tenant agrees not to disclose the terms, covenants, conditions or
other facts with respect to this Surrender of Lease, to any person, corporation,
partnership, association, newspaper, periodical or other entity except pursuant
to a valid business purpose or as required by law. This non-disclosure and

Advances under the Revolving A Revolving Facility and charges and payments made

respect to any Revolving A Advance, in each case calculated on the basis of a
360-day year and for the actual number of calendar days elapsed in each interest
calculation period. Interest accrued on each Advance under the Note shall be due
and payable on the first day of each calendar month, in accordance with the
procedures provided for in Section 2.5, and Section 2.6, commencing April 1,

     2.4. REVOLVING FACILITY DISBURSEMENTS; REQUIREMENT TO DELIVER BORROWING
          CERTIFICATE

          So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Borrower may give Lender irrevocable written notice requesting an
Advance under the Revolving Facility by delivering to Lender not later than 1:00
p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) at least one but not more than four Business Days
before the proposed borrowing date of such requested Advance ( the "BORROWING
DATE"), a completed Borrowing Certificate and relevant supporting documentation
satisfactory to Lender, which shall (i) specify the proposed Borrowing Date of
such Advance which shall be a Business Day, (ii) specify the principal amount of
such requested Advance, (iii) specify whether such Advance is a Revolving A
Advance or a Revolving B Advance and (iv) certify the matters contained in
Section 4.2; provided, however, any request for an Advance when Revolving A
Availability minus the outstanding balance of Revolving A Advances equals $0
shall automatically be deemed a request for a Revolving B Advance (for example,
if the Revolving A Facility is fully drawn, any requested Advance will
automatically be deemed a request to draw down on the Revolving B Facility).
Each time a request for an Advance is made (and more frequently if Lender shall
so reasonably request) until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in cash in
full and this Agreement is terminated, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a
Borrowing Certificate accompanied by a separate detailed aging and categorizing
of Borrower's accounts receivable and accounts payable and such other supporting
documentation with respect to the figures and information in the Borrowing
Certificate as Lender shall reasonably request from a credit or security
perspective or otherwise. On each Borrowing Date, Borrower irrevocably
authorizes Lender to disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance to the
appropriate Borrower's account(s) as set forth on Schedule 2.4, in all cases for
credit to the appropriate Borrower (or to such other account as to which the
appropriate Borrower shall instruct Lender) via Federal funds wire transfer no
later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time).

     2.5. REVOLVING FACILITY COLLECTIONS; REPAYMENT; BORROWING AVAILABILITY AND
          LOCKBOX

          Borrower shall maintain one or more lockbox accounts (individually and
collectively, the "LOCKBOX ACCOUNT") with one or more banks acceptable to Lender
(each, a "LOCKBOX BANK"), and shall execute with each Lockbox Bank one or more
agreements acceptable to Lender (individually and collectively, the

                                       3
<PAGE>
"LOCKBOX AGREEMENT"), and such other agreements related thereto as Lender may
require. Borrower shall ensure that all collections of their respective Accounts
and all other cash payments received by Borrower are paid and delivered directly
from Account Debtors and other Persons into the appropriate Lockbox Account. The
Lockbox Agreements shall provide that the Lockbox Banks immediately will
transfer all funds paid into the Lockbox Accounts into a depository account or
accounts maintained by Lender or an Affiliate of Lender at such bank as Lender
may communicate to Borrower from time to time (the "CONCENTRATION ACCOUNT"),
Notwithstanding and without limiting any other provision of any Loan Document,
Lender shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds transferred into the
Concentration Account pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement and this Section 2.5 in
such order and manner as determined by Lender in the following order, first to
all then unpaid fees and expenses then owing, second, to all accrued and unpaid
interest on the Advances, third, to the principal amount of the Revolving B
Advances and, fourth, to the principal amount of the Revolving A Advances. To
the extent that any Accounts are collected by Borrower or any other cash
payments received by Borrower are not sent directly to the appropriate Lockbox
Account but are received by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, such collections
and proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender and immediately
remitted (and in any event within two (2) Business Days), in the form received,
to the appropriate Lockbox Account for immediate transfer to the Concentration
Account. All funds transferred to the Concentration Account for application to
the Obligations under the Revolving Facility shall be applied to reduce the
Obligations under the Revolving Facility, but, for purposes of calculating
interest hereunder, shall be subject to a four Business Day clearance period. If
as the result of collections of Accounts and/or any other cash payments received
by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5 a credit balance exists with respect to
the Concentration Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in
favor of a Borrower, but shall be available to Borrower upon Borrower's written
request. If applicable, at any time prior to the execution of all or any of the
Lockbox Agreements and operation of all or any of the Lockbox Accounts, Borrower
and its Affiliates shall direct all collections or proceeds it receives on
Accounts or from other Collateral to the accounts(s) and in the manner specified
by Lender in its sole discretion.

     2.6. PROMISE TO PAY; MANNER OF PAYMENT

          Borrower absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay principal,
interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any other Loan
Document, without any right of rescission and without any deduction whatsoever,
including any deduction for any setoff, counterclaim or recoupment, and
notwithstanding any damage to, defects in or destruction of the Collateral or
any other event, including obsolescence of any property or improvements. All
payments made by Borrower (other than payments automatically paid through
Advances under the Revolving Facility as provided herein), shall be made only by
wire transfer on the date when due, without offset or counterclaim, in U.S.
Dollars, in immediately available funds to such account as may be indicated in
writing by Lender to Borrower from time to time. Any such payment received after
4:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the date when due shall be deemed received
on the following Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to
be due or shall become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the
due date thereof shall be extended to, and such payment shall be made on, the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time in such case shall be
included in the computation of payment of any interest (at the interest rate
then in effect during such extension) and/or fees, as the case may be.

     2.7. REPAYMENT OF EXCESS ADVANCES

          Any balance of Advances under the Revolving Facility outstanding at
any time in excess of the lesser of the Facility Cap or the Availability shall
be immediately due and payable by Borrower without the necessity of any demand,
at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred
or is continuing and shall be paid in the manner specified in Section 2.6.

     2.8. PAYMENTS BY LENDER

                                       4
<PAGE>
     Should any amount required to be paid under any Loan Document be unpaid,
such amount may be paid by Lender, which payment shall be deemed a request for
an Advance under the Revolving Facility as of the date such payment is due, and
Borrower irrevocably authorizes disbursement of any such funds to Lender by way
of direct payment of the relevant amount, interest or Obligations. No payment or
prepayment of any amount by Lender or any other Person shall entitle any Person
to be subrogated to the rights of Lender under any Loan Document unless and
until the Obligations have been fully performed and paid irrevocably in cash and
this Agreement has been terminated. Any sums expended by Lender as a result of
Borrower's or any Guarantor's failure to pay, perform or comply with any Loan
Document or any of the Obligations may be charged to Borrower's account as an
Advance under the Revolving Facility and added to the Obligations.

     2.9. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; COLLATERAL

          (a) To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, Borrower
hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in and Lien upon, and

foregoing, and any and all replacements, products and proceeds (including
insurance proceeds) of any of the foregoing.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.9, such
grant of a security interest shall not extend to, and the term "Collateral"
shall not include, (i) any Equipment Lender Collateral, (ii) Real Property , and
(iii) any General Intangibles of Borrower to the extent that (1) such General
Intangibles are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter of law
or under the terms of any license or other agreement applicable thereto (but
solely to the extent that any such restriction shall be enforceable under
applicable law) without the consent of the licensor thereof or other applicable
party thereto, and (2) such consent has not been obtained; provided, however,
that the foregoing grant of a security interest shall extend to, and the term
"Collateral" shall include, each of the following: (x) any General Intangible

pledge or encumbrance of such proceeds is not so restricted, and (z) upon
obtaining the consent of any such licensor or other applicable party with
respect to any such otherwise excluded General Intangible, such General
Intangible as well as any and all proceeds thereof that might theretofore have
been excluded from such grant of a security interest and from the term
"Collateral."

          (c) In addition to the foregoing, to secure the payment and
performance of the Obligations, Lender shall have received a pledge of not less
than (i) 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Borrower pursuant to the
Borrower Stock Pledge Agreement and (ii) 100% of the issued an outstanding

Liens of any kind in favor of any other Person except for Permitted Liens. No
financing statement relating to any of the Collateral is on file in any public
office except those (i) on behalf of Lender, and/or (ii) in connection with
Permitted Liens.

     2.10. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

          (a) All Collateral (except Deposit Accounts) will at all times be kept
by Borrower at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.18B hereto and shall not,
without thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice to Lender, be moved
therefrom, and in any case shall not be moved outside the continental United
States.

          (b) Borrower shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts
and all payments and collections thereon and shall submit such records to Lender
on such periodic bases as Lender may request. In addition, if Accounts of
Borrower in an aggregate face amount in excess of $100,000 become ineligible
because they fall within one of the specified categories of ineligibility set

Receivables, Borrower shall notify Lender of such occurrence on the first
Business Day following such occurrence and the Borrowing Base shall thereupon be
adjusted to reflect such occurrence. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall
execute and deliver to Lender formal written assignments of all of its Accounts
weekly as Lender may request, including all Accounts created since the date of
the last assignment, together with copies of claims, invoices and/or other
information related thereto. To the extent that collections from such assigned
accounts exceed the amount of the Obligations, such excess amount shall not
accrue interest in favor of Borrower, but shall be available to Borrower upon
Borrower's written request.

          (c) Whether or not an Event of Default has occurred, any of Lender's
officers, employees, representatives or agents shall have the right, at any time
during normal business hours, in the name of Lender, any designee of Lender or
Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any
Accounts of Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate fully with Lender in an effort to
facilitate and promptly conclude such verification process.

          (d) To expedite collection, Borrower shall endeavor in the first
instance to make collection of its Accounts for Lender. Lender shall have the
right at all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default to notify Account Debtors owing Accounts to Borrower that their
Accounts have been assigned to Lender and to collect such Accounts directly in
its own name and to charge collection costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorney's fees, to Borrower.

          (e) As and when determined by Lender in its Permitted Discretion,
Lender will perform the searches described in clauses (i) and (ii) below against
Borrower and Guarantors (the results of which are to be consistent with
Borrower's representations and warranties under this Agreement), all at
Borrower's expense, provided that unless an Event of Default has occurred and
during the continuance thereof, Borrower shall not pay for more than one such
search per calendar quarter: (i) UCC searches with the Secretary of State of the
jurisdiction of organization of Borrower and Guarantor and the Secretary of
State and local filing offices of each jurisdiction where Borrower and/or any
Guarantors maintain their respective executive offices, a place of business or
assets; (ii) lien searches with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
and the United States Copyright Office; and (iii) judgment, federal tax lien and

          (f) Borrower (1) shall provide prompt written notice to its current
bank to transfer all items, collections and remittances to the Concentration
Account, (ii) shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, provide prompt written notice to each Account Debtor that Lender has
been granted a lien

                                       6

Debtor; (iii) shall direct each Account Debtor to make payments to the
appropriate Lockbox Account, and Borrower hereby authorizes Lender, upon any
failure to send such notices and directions within ten (10) calendar days after
the date of this Agreement (or ten (10) calendar days after the Person becomes
an Account Debtor), to send any and all similar notices and directions to such
Account Debtors, and (iv) shall do anything further that may be lawfully
required by Lender to create and perfect Lender's lien on any collateral and
effectuate the intentions of the Loan Documents. At Lender's request, Borrower
shall immediately deliver to Lender all items for which Lender must receive
possession to obtain a perfected security interest and all notes, certificates,
and documents of title, Chattel Paper, warehouse receipts, Instruments, and any
other similar instruments constituting Collateral.

     2.11. POWER OF ATTORNEY

and lawful attorney for Borrower (without requiring Lender to act as such) with
full power of substitution to do the following: (i) upon and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, endorse the name of any such Person upon any
and all checks, drafts, money orders, and other instruments for the payment of
money that are payable to such Person and constitute collections on its or their
Accounts; (ii) upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, execute
in the name of such Person any financing statements, schedules, assignments,
instruments, documents, and statements that it is or they or are obligated to
give Lender under any of the Loan Documents; (iii) upon and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, record Lender's Lien upon any motor vehicle
title certificates with respect to the Designated Equipment and file appropriate
applications with Government Authorities to have Lender's Lien noted on such
certificates of title, and (iv) do such other and further acts and deeds in the
name of such Person that Lender may deem necessary or desirable to enforce any
Account or other Collateral or to perfect Lender's security interest or lien in
any Collateral. In addition, if any such Person breaches its obligation
hereunder to direct payments of Accounts or the proceeds of any other Collateral
to the appropriate Lockbox Account, Lender, as the irrevocably made, constituted
and appointed true and lawful attorney for such Person pursuant to this
paragraph, may, by the signature or other act of any of Lender's officers or
authorized signatories (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any
federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay proceeds of
Accounts or any other Collateral to the appropriate Lockbox Account.

III. FEES AND OTHER CHARGES

     3.1. COMMITMENT FEES

          On or before the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender a
nonrefundable commitment fee equal to (i) $300,000 for Lender's provision of the

                                       7
<PAGE>
percent (0.50%) per annum of the difference derived by subtracting (i) the daily
average amount of the balances under the Revolving A Facility outstanding during
the preceding month, from (ii) the Revolving A Facility Cap;

          (c) from the Closing Date through the end of the Term, three quarters

outstanding during the preceding month, from (ii) the Revolving B Facility Cap;
and

during the preceding month. The Collateral Management Fee shall be payable
monthly in arrears on the first day of each successive calendar month (starting
with the month in which the Closing Date occurs).

     3.4. COMPUTATION OF FEES; LAWFUL LIMITS

          All fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days and for the actual number of days elapsed in each calculation period, as
applicable. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration or otherwise, shall the interest and other charges paid or agreed
to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money hereunder
exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law which a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto.
If, due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, at
the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall exceed any such
limit, then, the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful
limit, and, if Lender shall have received interest or any other charges of any
kind which might be deemed to be interest under applicable law in excess of the
maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees
and charges hereunder, then to unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower

previously unpaid principal balance, Lender shall promptly refund such excess
amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide
for such permissible rate. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.4 shall

Documents. To the extent applicable, each Borrower expressly understands, agrees
and acknowledges that (i) Borrowers are all Affiliated entities by common

credit facility instead of separate credit facilities, (iii) each Borrower has
requested that Lender extend such a common credit facility on the terns herein

of Borrowers' assets even though the proceeds of any particular loan made
hereunder may not be advanced directly to a particular Borrower, (v) each
Borrower will nonetheless benefit by the making of all such loans by Lender and
the availability of a single credit facility of a size greater than each

                                       8
<PAGE>

covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in the
Loan Documents shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon each Borrower.

are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

IX.  RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT

     9.1. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

          (a) In addition to the acceleration provisions set forth in Article
VIII above, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Lender
shall have the right to exercise any and all rights, options and remedies
provided for in the Loan Documents, under the UCC or at law or in equity, in
each case acting in a commercially reasonable manner, including, without
limitation, the right to (i) apply any property of Borrower held by Lender to
reduce the Obligations, (ii) foreclose the Liens created under the Security
Documents, (iii) realize upon, take possession of and/or sell any Collateral or
securities pledged with or without judicial process, (iv) exercise all rights
and powers with respect to the Collateral as Borrower, as applicable, might
exercise, (v) collect and send notices regarding the Collateral, with or without
judicial process, (vi) by its own means or with judicial assistance, enter any
premises at which Collateral and/or pledged securities are located, or render
any of the foregoing unusable or dispose of the Collateral and/or pledged
securities on such premises without any liability for rent, storage, utilities,
or other sums, and no Borrower shall resist or interfere with such action, (vii)
at Borrower's expense, require that all or any part of the Collateral be
assembled and made available to Lender at any place designated by Lender, (viii)
reduce or otherwise change the Facility Cap, and/or (ix) relinquish or abandon
any Collateral or securities pledged or any Lien thereon. Notwithstanding any
provision of any Loan Document, Lender,

                                       26
<PAGE>
in its sole discretion, shall have the right, at any time that Borrower fails to
do so, and from time to time, without prior notice, to: (i) obtain insurance
covering any of the Collateral to the extent required hereunder; (ii) pay for
the performance of any of Obligations; (iii) discharge taxes or Liens on any of
the Collateral that are in violation of any Loan document unless Borrower is in
good faith with due diligence by appropriate proceedings contesting those items;
and (iv) pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral. Such
expenses and advances shall be added to the Obligations until reimbursed to
Lender and shall be secured by the Collateral, and such payments by Lender shall
not be construed as a waiver by Lender of any Event of Default or any other
rights or remedies of Lender.

          (b) Borrower agrees that notice received by it at least ten (10)
calendar days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time after
which any private sale or other disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall
be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If
permitted by applicable law, any perishable Collateral which threatens to
speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold
immediately by Lender without prior notice to Borrower. At any sale or
disposition of Collateral or securities pledged, Lender may (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) purchase all or any part thereof free from any
right of redemption by Borrower which right is hereby waived and released.
Borrower covenants and agrees not to, and not to permit or cause any of its
Subsidiaries to, interfere with or impose any obstacle to Lender's exercise of
its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Lender, in dealing with
or disposing of the Collateral or any part thereof, shall not be required to
give priority or preference to any item of Collateral or otherwise to marshal
assets or to take possession or sell any Collateral with judicial process.

     9.2  APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

          In addition to any other rights, options and remedies Lender has under
the Loan Documents, the UCC, at law or in equity, all dividends, interest,
rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues, income and other proceeds collected or
received from collecting, holding, managing, renting, selling, or otherwise
disposing of all or any part of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof upon
exercise of its remedies hereunder shall be applied in the following order of
priority: (i) first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such
collection, storage, lease, holding, operation, management, sale, disposition or
delivery and of conducting Borrower's business and of maintenance, repairs,
replacements, alterations, additions and improvements of or to the Collateral,
and to the payment of all sums which Lender may be required or may elect to pay,
if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges upon the Collateral
or any part thereof, and all other payments that Lender may be required or
authorized to make under any provision of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, in each such case, in-house documentation and diligence fees and
legal expenses, search, audit, recording, professional and filing fees and
expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees and all expenses, liabilities and
advances made or incurred in connection therewith); (ii) second, to the payment
of all Obligations as provided herein; (iii) third, to the satisfaction of
Indebtedness secured by any subordinate security interest of record in the
Collateral if written notification of demand therefor is received before
distribution of the proceeds is completed, provided, that, if requested by
Lender, the holder of a subordinate security interest shall furnish reasonable
proof of its interest, and unless it does so, Lender need not address its
claims; and (iv) fourth, to the payment of any surplus then remaining to
Borrower, unless otherwise provided by law or directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction, provided that Borrower shall be liable for any deficiency if such
proceeds are insufficient to satisfy the Obligations or any of the other items
referred to in this section.

     9.3. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE

          Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which
rights, Liens and/or remedies Lender may at any time pursue, relinquish,
subordinate or modify, and such determination will not in any way modify or
affect any of Lender's rights, Liens or remedies under any Loan Document,
applicable law or equity. The enumeration of any rights and remedies in any Loan
Document is not intended to be exhaustive, and all rights and remedies of Lender
described in any Loan Document are cumulative and are not alternative to or
exclusive of any

                                       27
<PAGE>
other rights or remedies which Lender otherwise may have. The partial or
complete exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude any other further
exercise of such or any other right or remedy.

X.   WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS

     10.1. WAIVERS

          Except as expressly provided for herein, Borrower hereby waives
setoff, counterclaim, demand, presentment, protest, all defenses with respect to
any and all instruments and all notices and demands of any description, as a
defense to any demand under any Loan Document. Borrower hereby waives any and
all defenses and counterclaims, other than compulsory counterclaims, it may have
or could interpose in any action or procedure brought by Lender to obtain an
order of court recognizing the assignment of, or Lien of Lender in and to, any
Collateral. With respect to any action hereunder, Lender conclusively may rely
upon, and shall incur no liability to Borrower in acting upon, any request or
other communication that Lender reasonably believes to have been given or made
by a person authorized on Borrower's behalf, whether or not such person is
listed on the incumbency certificate delivered pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof.
In each such case, Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute Lender's action
based upon such request or other communication, absent manifest error.

     10.2. DELAY; NO WAIVER OF DEFAULTS

          No course of action or dealing, renewal, release or extension of any
provision of any Loan Document, or single or partial exercise of any such
provision, or delay, failure or omission on Lender's part in enforcing any such
provision shall affect the liability of Borrower or Guarantor or operate as a
waiver of such provision or affect the liability of Borrower or Guarantor or
preclude any other or further exercise of such provision. No waiver by any party
to any Loan Document of any one or more defaults by any other party in the
performance of any of the provisions of any Loan Document shall operate or be
construed as a waiver of any future default, whether off a like or different
nature, and each such waiver shall be limited solely to the express terms and
provisions of such waiver. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan
Document, by completing the Closing under this Agreement and/or by making
Advances, Lender does not waive any breach of any representation or warranty
under any Loan Document, and all of Lender's claims and rights resulting from
any such breach or misrepresentation are specifically reserved.

     10.3. JURY WAIVER

          EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS
OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES WITH
RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY, WHETHER
NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR
OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF
ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO
THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL, COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH
ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF
THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

XI.  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION

     11.1. TERMINATION AND EFFECTIVE DATE THEREOF

          (a) Subject to Lender's right to terminate and cease making Advances
upon or after any Event of Default, this Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect until the full performance and indefeasible

                                       28
<PAGE>
payment in cash of all Obligations, unless terminated sooner as provided in this
Section 11.1. Borrower may terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less
than ninety (90) calendar days' prior written notice to Lender and upon full
performance and indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations on or
prior to such 90th calendar day after Receipt by Lender of such written notice.
All of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon any such
termination on the termination date stated in any notice of termination (the
"TERMINATION DATE"); provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of any
Loan Document, the Termination Date shall be effective no earlier than the first
Business Day of the month following the expiration of the ninety (90) calendar
days' prior written notice period. The Termination Date may be extended once for
a period of one year at the option of Borrower provided that (i) Borrower has
given Lender written notice of such renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to
the expiration of the Termination Date and (ii) there does not then exist a
Default or Event of Default. Upon any such extension of the Termination Date,
Borrower shall pay Lender an extension fee in an amount equal to the product of
(x) the Facility Cap times (y) one third of one percent. Notwithstanding any
other provision of any Loan Document, no termination of this Agreement shall
affect Lender's rights or any of the Obligations existing as of the effective
date of such termination, and the provisions of the Loan Documents shall
continue to be fully operative until the Obligations have been fully performed
and indefeasibly paid in cash in full. The Liens granted to Lender under the
Security Documents and the financing statements filed pursuant thereto and the
rights and powers of Lender shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding the fact that Borrower's borrowings hereunder may from time to
time be in a zero or credit position until all of the Obligations have been
fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

          (b) If (i) Borrower terminates the Revolving A Facility under this
Section 11.1, (ii) Borrower voluntarily or involuntarily repays the Obligations
(other than reductions to zero of the outstanding balance of the Revolving
Facility resulting from the ordinary course operation of the provisions of
Section 2.5), whether by virtue of Lender's exercising its right of set off or
otherwise; (iii) the Obligations are accelerated by Lender (each of the events
described in (i), (ii) and (iii) above being hereinafter referred to as, a
"REVOLVER TERMINATION"), then at the effective date of any such Revolver
Termination, Borrower shall pay Lender (in addition to the then outstanding
principal, accrued interest and other Obligations relating to the Revolving
Facility pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document),
to compensate Lender for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount
equal to the applicable Minimum Revolver Termination Fee. Borrower shall have no
right to terminate the Revolving A Facility without first terminating the
Revolving B Facility.

          (c) In the event of a Revolver Termination, Lender agrees to provide
Borrower a payoff letter with respect to payoff of the outstanding balance of
Obligations within five (5) Business Days after receipt by Lender of a written
request thereof from Borrower.

     11.2. SURVIVAL

          All obligations, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties,
waivers and indemnities made by Borrower in any Loan Document shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the Closing, the making of the
Advances and any termination of this Agreement until all Obligations are fully
performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The obligations and provisions
of Sections 3.4, 3.5, 10.1, 10.3, 11.1, 11.2, 12.4, 12.7 and 12.10 shall survive
termination of the Loan Documents and any payment, in full or in part, of the
Obligations.

XII. MISCELLANEOUS

     12.1. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; VENUE

          The Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of Maryland without giving effect to its
choice of law provisions. Any judicial proceeding against Borrower with respect
to the Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement may be brought in
any

                                       29
<PAGE>
federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of
Maryland. By execution and delivery of each Loan Document to which it is a
party, Borrower (i) accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid
courts and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby, (ii)
waives personal service of process, (iii) agrees that service of process upon it
may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, pursuant
to Section 12.5 hereof, (iv) waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of
any action instituted hereunder and agrees not to assert any defense based on
lack of jurisdiction, venue or convenience, and (v) agrees that this loan was
made in Maryland, that Lender has accepted in Maryland Loan Documents executed
by Borrower and has disbursed Advances under the Loan Documents in Maryland.
Nothing shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any manner
permitted by law or shall 1imit the right of Lender to bring proceedings against
Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction having jurisdiction. Any
judicial proceedings against Lender involving, directly or indirectly, the
Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement shall be brought only in
a federal or state court located in the State of Maryland. All parties
acknowledge that they participated in the negotiation and drafting of this
Agreement and that, accordingly, no party shall move or petition a court
construing this Agreement to construe it more stringently against one party than
against any other.

     12.2. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS; NEW LENDERS

          The Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of Lender, Transferees
and all future holders of any Note, the Obligations and/or any of the
Collateral, and each of their respective successors and assigns. Each Loan
Document shall be binding upon the Persons' other than Lender that are parties
thereto and their respective successors and assigns, and no such Person may
assign, delegate or transfer any Loan Document or any of its rights or
obligations thereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. No rights
are intended to be created under any Loan Document for the benefit of any third
party donee, creditor or incidental beneficiary of Borrower or Guarantor.
Nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as a delegation to
Lender of any other Person's duty of performance. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT LENDER AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME MAY (I) DIVIDE AND RESTATE
ANY NOTE, AND/OR (II) SELL, ASSIGN OR GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR
TRANSFER ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT,
NOTE, THE OBLIGATIONS AND/OR THE COLLATERAL TO OTHER PERSONS (EACH SUCH
TRANSFEREE, ASSIGNEE OR PURCHASER, A "TRANSFEREE"). Each Transferee shall have
all of the rights and benefits with respect to the Obligations, Notes,
Collateral and/or Loan Documents held by it as fully as if the original holder
thereof, and either Lender or any Transferee may be designated as the sole agent
to manage the transactions and obligations contemplated therein, provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, Borrower shall
not be obligated to pay under this Agreement to any Transferee any sum in excess
of the sum which Borrower would have been obligated to pay to Lender had such
participation not been effected. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan
Document, Lender may disclose to any Transferee all information, reports,
financial statements, certificates and documents obtained under any provision of
any Loan Document.

     12.3 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS

          To the extent that any payment made or received with respect to the
Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in
possession, receiver, custodian o r any other Person under any Debtor Relief
Law, common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations
intended to be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and shall continue as
if such payment had not been received by Lender. Any payments with respect to
the Obligations received shall be credited and applied in such manner and order
as Lender shall decide in its Permitted Discretion.

     12.4. INDEMNITY

          Borrower shall indemnify Lender, its Affiliates and its and their
respective managers, members, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents,
representatives, successors, assigns, accountants and attorneys (collectively,

                                       30
<PAGE>
the "INDEMNIFIED PERSONS") from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without
limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and in- house
documentation and diligence fees and legal expenses) which may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect to or
arising out of, or in any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or
conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any transaction
contemplated by or referred to in, or any matter related to, any Loan Document
or any agreement, document or transaction contemplated thereby, whether or not
such Indemnified Person is a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the
foregoing arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnified Person. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house counsel for any
purpose for which Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify, Borrower
expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations include reasonable charges
for such work no greater than 75% of the fees that would otherwise be charged by
outside legal counsel selected by such Indemnified Person in its sole discretion
for the work performed. Lender agrees to give Borrower reasonable notice of any
event of which Lender becomes aware far which indemnification may be required
under this Section 12.4, and Lender may elect (but is not obligated) to direct
the defense thereof, provided that the selection of counsel shall be subject to
Borrower's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Any Indemnified Person may, in its reasonable discretion, take such actions as
it deems necessary and appropriate to investigate, defend or settle any event or
take other remedial or corrective actions with respect thereto as may be
necessary for the protection of such Indemnified Person or the Collateral.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any insurer agrees to undertake the defense of
an event (an "INSURED EVENT"), Lender agrees not to exercise its right to select
counsel to defend the event if that would cause Borrower's insurer to deny
coverage; provided, however, that Lender reserves the right to retain counsel to
represent any Indemnified Person with respect to an Insured Event at its sole
cost and expense. To the extent that Lender obtains recovery from a third party
other than an Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that Borrower has paid to
Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4, then Lender
shall promptly pay to Borrower the amount of such recovery.

     12.5. NOTICE

          Any notice or request under any Loan Document shall be given to any
party to this Agreement at such party's address set forth beneath its signature
on the signature page to this Agreement, or at such other address as such party
may hereafter specify in a notice given in the manner required under this
Section 12.5. Any notice or request hereunder shall be given only by, and shall
be deemed to have been received upon (each, a "RECEIPT"): (i) registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, on the date on which received as
indicated in such return receipt, (ii) delivery by a nationally recognized
overnight courier, one (1) Business Day after deposit with such courier, or
(iii) facsimile transmission, in each case upon telephone or further electronic
communication from the recipient acknowledging receipt (whether automatic or
manual from recipient), as applicable.

     12.6. SEVERABILITY; CAPTIONS; COUNTERPARTS; FACSIMILE SIGNATURES

          If any provision of any Loan Document is adjudicated to be invalid
under applicable laws or regulations, such provision shall be inapplicable to
the extent of such invalidity without affecting the validity or enforceability
of the remainder of the Loan Documents which shall be given effect so far as
possible. The captions in the Loan Documents are intended for convenience and
reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the Loan
Documents. The Loan Documents may be executed in one or more counterparts (which
taken together, as applicable, shall constitute one and the same instrument) and
by facsimile transmission, which facsimile signatures shall be considered
original executed counterparts. Each party to this Agreement agrees that it will
be bound by its own facsimile signature and that it accepts the facsimile
signature of each other party.

     12.7. EXPENSES

          Upon the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses
incurred by Lender and/or its Affiliates, including, without limitation,
documentation and diligence fees and expenses, all search, audit, appraisal,

                                       31
<PAGE>
recording, professional and filing fees and expenses and all other out-of-pocket
charges and expenses (including, without limitation, UCC and judgment and tax
lien searches and UCC filings and fees for post-Closing UCC and judgment and tax
lien searches and wire transfer fees and audit expenses), and reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, (i) in any effort to enforce, protect or collect
payment of any Obligation or to enforce any Loan Document or any related
agreement, document or instrument, (ii) in connection with entering into,
negotiating, preparing, reviewing and executing the Loan Documents and/or any
related agreements, documents or instruments, (iii) arising in any way out of
administration of the Obligations, (iv) in connection with instituting,
maintaining, preserving, enforcing and/or foreclosing on Lender's Liens in any
of the Collateral or securities pledged under the Loan Documents, whether
through judicial proceedings or otherwise, (v) in defending or prosecuting any
actions, claims or proceedings arising out of or relating to Lender's
transactions with Borrower, (vi) in seeking, obtaining or receiving any advice
with respect to its rights and obligations under any Loan Document and any
related agreement, document or instrument, and/or (vii) in connection with any
modification, restatement, supplement, amendment, waiver or extension of any
Loan Document and/or any related agreement, document or instrument. A11 of the
foregoing shall be charged to Borrower's account and shall be part of the
Obligations. If Lender or any of its Affiliates uses in-house counsel for any
purpose under any Loan Document for which Borrower is responsible to pay or
indemnify, Borrower expressly agrees that its Obligations include reasonable
charges for such work no greater than 75% of the fees that would otherwise be
charged by outside legal counsel selected by Lender or such Affiliate in its
sole discretion for the work performed. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower
shall pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon or measured by Lender's income
or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in connection with the
issuance of any Note and the filing and/or recording of any documents and/or
financing statements.

     12.8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

          This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a
party constitute the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender with respect
to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof. Any
promises, representations, warranties o r guarantees not herein contained and
hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing signed by
Borrower and Lender. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, modified,
amended, restated, waived, supplemented, discharged, canceled or terminated
orally or by any course of dealing or in any other manner other than by an
agreement in writing signed by Lender and Borrower. Each party hereto
acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and is not relying upon oral
representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions hereof.

     12.9. LENDER APPROVALS

          Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any approval,
consent, waiver or satisfaction of Lender with respect to any matter that is
subject of any Loan Document may be granted or withheld by Lender in its
Permitted Discretion, such approval, consent or waiver not to be unreasonably
withheld.

     12.1.0. PUBLICITY

          Borrower hereby agrees that Lender or any Affiliate of Lender may (i)
disclose a general description of transactions arising under the Loan Documents
for advertising, marketing or other similar purposes and (ii) use Borrower's or

with such advertising, marketing or other similar purposes.

     12.11. AGENT

                                       32
<PAGE>

successors and assigns ("CAPITALSOURCE"), to act as agent for Lender and its
successors and assigns under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, (ii)
irrevocably authorize CapitalSource to take all actions on its behalf under the

Borrower acknowledges that Lender and its successors and assigns transfer and
