            2.3 Repayment Terms.

            (a) The Borrower will pay interest on December 31, 2000, and then
                monthly thereafter until payment in full of any principal
                outstanding under this line of credit.

            (b) The Borrower will repay principal in twenty (20) successive
                quarterly installments of Three Hundred Fifty Five Thousand Two
                Hundred Thirty Eight Dollars ($355,238) starting December 31,
                2000.  On September 30, 2005, the Borrower will repay the
                remaining principal balance plus any interest then due.

            (c) The Borrower may prepay the loan in full or in part at any time.
                The prepayment will be applied to the most remote payment of
                principal due under this Agreement.

            2.4 Optional Interest Rates.  Instead of the interest rate based on
                the Bank's Prime Rate, the Borrower may elect the optional
                interest rates listed below for this Facility No. 2 during
                interest periods agreed to by the Bank and the Borrower. The
                optional interest rates shall be subject to the terms and
                conditions described later in this Agreement. Any principal
                amount bearing interest at an optional rate under this Agreement
                is referred to as a "Portion." The following optional interest
                rates are available:

            (a) the IBOR Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.

            (b) the LIBOR Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.

            3.  FACILITY NO. 3:  NON-REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AMOUNT AND TERMS.

            3.1  Line of Credit Amount.

            (a) During the availability period described below, the Bank will
                provide a line of credit to the Borrower.  The amount of the
                line of credit (the "Facility No. 3 Commitment") is Five Million
                and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00).

            (b) This is a non-revolving line of credit with a term repayment
                option, and providing for cash advances.  Any amount borrowed,
                even if repaid before the end of the availability period,
                permanently reduces the remaining available line of credit.

            (c) The Borrower agrees not to permit the outstanding principal
                balance of advances under the line of credit to exceed the
                Facility No. 3 Commitment.

            3.2 Availability Period.  The line of credit is available between
                the date of this Agreement and August 31, 2001, or such earlier
                date as the availability may terminate as provided in this
                Agreement (the "Facility No. 3 Expiration Date").

            3.3 Interest Rate.  Unless the Borrower elects an optional interest
                rate as described below, the interest rate is the Bank's Prime
                Rate minus 2 percentage points.

            3.4 Repayment Terms.

            (a) The Borrower will pay interest on December 31, 2000, and then
                monthly thereafter until payment in full of any principal
                outstanding under this line of credit.

            (b) The Borrower will repay the principal amount outstanding on
                Facility No. 3 in twenty (20) successive equal quarterly
                installments starting November 30, 2001.  On August 31, 2006,
                the Borrower will repay the remaining principal balance plus any
                interest then due.

            (c) The Borrower may prepay the loan in full or in part at any time.

            3.5 Optional Interest Rates.  Instead of the interest rate based on

                interest rates for this Facility No. 3 listed below during
                interest periods agreed to by the Bank and the Borrower.  The
                optional interest rates shall be subject to the terms and
                conditions described later in this Agreement.  Any principal
                amount bearing interest at an optional rate under this Agreement
                is referred to as a "Portion."  The following optional interest
                rates are available:

            (a) the IBOR Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.

            (b) the LIBOR Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.

            (a) The interest period during which the IBOR Rate will be in effect
                will be no shorter than 30 days and no longer than one year.
                The last day of the interest period will be determined by the
                Bank using the practices of the offshore dollar inter-bank
                market.

            (b) Each IBOR Rate Portion will be for an amount not less than Five
                Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000).

            (d) The Borrower may not elect an IBOR Rate with respect to any
                principal amount which is scheduled to be repaid before the last
                day of the applicable interest period.

            (e) The "IBOR Rate" means the interest rate determined by the
                following formula, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one
                percent.  (All amounts in the calculation will be determined by
                the Bank as of the first day of the interest period.)

                      IBOR RATE   =        IBOR Base Rate
                                     ---------------------------
                                     (1.00 - Reserve Percentage)

            Where,

                (i)  "IBOR Base Rate" means the interest rate at which the
                     Bank's Grand Cayman Branch, Grand Cayman, British West
                     Indies, would offer U.S. dollar deposits for the applicable
                     interest period to other major banks in the offshore dollar
                     inter-bank market.

                (ii) "Reserve Percentage" means the total of the maximum reserve
                     percentages for determining the reserves to be maintained
                     by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for
                     Eurocurrency Liabilities, as defined in Federal Reserve
                     Board Regulation D, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of
                     one percent.  The percentage will be expressed as a
                     decimal, and will include, but not be limited to, marginal,
                     emergency, supplemental, special, and other reserve
                     percentages.

            (f) Each prepayment of an IBOR Rate Portion, whether voluntary, by
                reason of acceleration or otherwise, will be accompanied by the
                amount of accrued interest on the amount prepaid, and a
                prepayment fee as described below.  A "prepayment" is a payment
                of an amount on a date earlier than the scheduled payment date
                for such amount as required by this Agreement.

                                       3
<PAGE>

            (g) The prepayment fee shall be in an amount sufficient to
                compensate the Bank for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it
                as a result of the prepayment, including any loss of anticipated
                profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or
                reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Portion or
                from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such
                funds were obtained.  The Borrower shall also pay any customary
                administrative fees charged by the Bank in connection with the
                foregoing.  For purposes of this paragraph, the Bank shall be
                deemed to have funded each Portion by a matching deposit or
                other borrowing in the applicable interbank market, whether or
                not such Portion was in fact so funded.

            (h) The Bank will have no obligation to accept an election for an
                IBOR Rate Portion if any of the following described events has
                occurred and is continuing:

                (i)  Dollar deposits in the principal amount, and for periods
                     equal to the interest period, of an IBOR Rate Portion are
                     not available in the offshore dollar inter-bank market; or

                (ii) the IBOR Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of an
                     IBOR Rate Portion."

       2.4  Paragraph 9.1 of the Agreement is amended in part to delete
            reference Facility No. 5 Commitment and Facility No. 6 Commitment,
            and add the Facility No. 3 Commitment.
